New York Times: Two events Of inn

way transportation in the South, OC
ton Of rates under the recent agreement
of the Southern Railway and steamship
Association, and the other was the final
official act consolidating the Richmond
and Danville with the East Tennessee,
Virginia and Georgia and other smaller
lines under the compact but ample char
ter Of the new Southern Railway Com
pany. The complete Generalization Of
railroad and steamship rates throughout
the South has had "a disturbing and mis-
chevous effect upon business generally,
although In some quarters IL has melted
an unusual activity In the transportation
of freight. The return to uniform ana
stable rates viii undoubtedly be- gladly
welcomed by the shippers as a class and
by the transportation mediums. which IN
many instances have been carrying freight
at unremuneratiVe figures.
The Importance Of the amalgamation or
the Richmond and Danville and the East
Tennessee systems into a sngle-headed
and permanent organization will be best
appreciated by persons who have business
interests in the South. and who, there
fore. know how bitter the rivalry between
those two system has been at times.

fore-topmnst. His arm was broken,
but his mates had fought death for
him so far, got him up the shrouds,
and made him fast aloft in the best
place. Hope was struggling in the
frozen hearts below him, for they saw
the boat. There was a great chance
yet il the Morning Star" could hold
together. But the man with the
broken arm did not watch approaching
salvation. His eyes roamed to the
black moving spots on the cliffs, to
Perranpol, lying snug not a mile away.
His Maker was just; He had brought
Tregaslis to a hard lee shore, but just
ona Six lives still rested in the
balance. Two men had already fallen,
and third hung dead, like one cruci-
fed, with shrouds for cross, where he
had lashed himself in the rigging.
Capt. Silver knew his perilous business,
and in half an hour, or less, the life.
boat dropped under the stern of the
wreck. The tide was low now, and a
man might cross the shattered deck
between the waves. This fact those
aloft saw, and soon sailor, white and
wild with the terror of death, ran his
chance, got across and jumped for it,
and was dragged into safety.
Four of the others did likewise, but
there was some delay In the rigging
before the last sailors came down,
dropped into the sea alongside the life
boat and were dragged aboard. They
explained that of the two men still
above one was dead, the other refused
to let them rescue him.
Hes our skipper and his arms
broke, but we got him up and lashed
him taut; but he won't come down, SO
we left 'un, cause it's every man for
hisself now," bawled the rescued mate
of the Morning Star" into Silver's
ear. Then he huddled down with his
fellows and drank brandy that had
been broached for them.
"The man must be mad" said Capt.
Silver, looking up and noticing that
! the shipwrecked skipper aloft was
signaling him away with his sound
arm The ship was breaking up fast
the danger increasing every moment.
"Let 'un co." said the mate. better
for brandy. 'You can't board her.
Mike Tregaskis won't change his mind
| for YOU"
Then one who had overheard the
name left the oar he was tugging with
another man-tugging to keep the life
boat in its place-and got over to Sill
, YER
| II heard-l know" said Dick IAN,

Lord! there's fitness in it for sar
tain. If any could get aboard 'er you
could, Dick. 'Tis Providence brought
you out, l guess. See them shrouds
from the mizzen floating like rope lad
der and running up over 'er side? If
you can make them you'll do the job.
It's chance; but if you miss 'em, it's
] good-by."
The Ohio Democrat. (Logan, O. [Ohio]) 1886-1906, 1894-03-03

'I'll try" said Dick, dragging off his
boots and tightening his lifebelt.
Silver took the boat as near as he
dared, and the boy jumped He fell
wide of the trailing shrouds, but was
carried right on to them by saa and
stuck there like cat as the water fell.
The next wave found him beyond it's
reach. A minute later he was on deck
and soon nloft beside TregaslSis. 1t
was an extraordinary feat, and even
the forlorn sailor gazed with wonder at
his young preserver.
Long after Mike told Mary what
Dick had said.
Father! DO 'e ear? You're my
father, an Mary Tregasltis my moth er
Come ONE long thcn-come ome.
She've been waitin' for you all these
years-an' been waitin'."
But all the life-boat crew saw was
that the boy scrambled up past the
corpse in the rigging to the living man
| above. Then words passed and the suffer-
er's bonds We're cut, Dick half lifted him
down and presently helped the semi
| frozen soul across the deck below The
lifeboat got under the stern of the
wreck, and Dick lowered Tregasliis by
a rope He was barely safe when the
shattered hull began to move; there
came IL horrid grinding and rending,
and Silver saw the Morning STAR had
left the rocks and was gliding down
on top of him. The men pulled for
life and just cleared in time as the
wreck vanished like stone beneath
the boiling water outside the reef.
! Dick jumped for it, and was saved by a
miracle. He gripped the lifeline out
side the boat, and was quickly dragged
aboard. Then the boy got to his oar

and shrielS of the gale, came the thnd
and solenn hoom cf hearv gnn. After
. minutes pause the sound shook his
easement again in lull of the wind;
and Dick knew it was signal from the
coastguard station-the signal for the
life-boat.
In less than ten minutes he was
abroad Such oil lamps as had not been
blown out still rocked and twinkled in
the little street. The tide was out
again, and Dick fairly gasped as he got
down on to the quay and met the wind.
Over the beach he went, his head low,
his tarpaulins cracking and bulging.
The sea was terrific nova gray, bub-
bling, boiling hell of raging water,
racing up over the sands. sheet upon
sheet, with circular swirl as each
wave fell back, churning and rafting
and kissing, into the lap of the under
tow; while beyond the white water, a
livid' lead-colored sea was running
mountains high, bursting in u roar
against the breakwater, sending up
columns of of flying white foam into
the dull gray of dawn. The wind had
veered trife, and was now blowing a
gale right on shore. Dick strained his
eyes, but he was upon a level with the
sea, and could note nothing. Presently
a streaE of light frightened the low
sky, ard then where the Devils
Teeth" grinned back in line of break
ers, the boy saw mast hanging above
the water-a solitary mast with black
| dots upon the shrouds of IL. Many
were at the lifeboat before Dick. She
was already out of her house, percned
on lofty wheels, waiting for the
approaching team of horses to get
her to the sea. Then Dick learned
that he had seen no vision through
two-masted ship in the Devils
Teeth''-a schooner, hard and fast
upon the rocks. Her mizzen-mast had
gone, but her lower fore-mast was
standing and a crew of eight or nine
men could be seen in the rigging. Huge
seas were sweeping her deck and at any
moment the ship might break up. 1t
was race between the hungry storm
and the men ashore. The life-boat
soon Topped in the surf and Dick and
the captain and others of the crew
were hurrying down to her, when, to
the boys bitter sorrow, Long Dyke APP
peared, clad in his cork jacket, limping
down with the crowd over the sand to
take his usual place. Half Perranpol
was out now. Many wild-eyed, hard
featured women. with their hair in the
wind, their clothes flying, We're strug-
Cling down to the water. Most of them
had men in the life-boat; but it was
no new thing, only Il phase of life.
Every man who came safely ashore
would be guinea richer. They
dragged their shawls about them and
stood like birds on the fringe of the
sea, fearless, bedraggled, unheeded.
Dicks mother was there-not silent,
not fearless. She hung on his arm and
prayed him for the love of God to stay.
