TOLD BY MISS BEUcKNER.
She Says Some One Cried Push Her
On!" but She Held On.

LONDON, Feb. 3.-Miss Anna Beuck-
ner, the only woman saved from the
North German Lloyd steamship Elbe,
in an interview has added the follow.
ing to the statements she has already
made about the disaster:
Miss Beuckner says that when the
first boat capsized she swan until she
caught one of the oars of the other
boat which had been launched and
then somebody on board the latter
craft shouted: "Push her OFF,
She also says they tried to push her
off but she held on SO firmly to the oar
that she was finally pulled on board.
Continuing. Miss Beuckner says that
the officers of the Elbe miscalculated
the time that the steamer could keep
afloat.
The skipper of the fishing smack
Competition, which has arrived at
Lowestoft, has reported that in addi-
to mail bag he saw near the scene of
the collision quantity of wreckage,
apparently from big steamer, and he
picked up platform used for painting
ships sides.

Vever, survivors of the Elbe disaster,

Literary Notes,

The Midland Monthly's supply OF
good reading must be inexhaustibIe
The February Midland contains ninety.
Six pages of deeply interesting reading,
including Mississippi river sketch by
Hamlin Garland, delightful stories,
choice poems and a large number of
profusely illustrated papers. Editor
Brigham informs us that he has placed
on his subscription books since the first
of December last between 300 and
1,400 cash subscriptions splendid
showing.
How the Japanese look and dress,
what their porcelains and ivory carv-
ings are, everybody knows. With the
japanese himself we are less familiar,
and he is, to most Americans, more
or less close imitation of ourselves. A
glimpse of the Japanese country gen.
tleman is given in The H'yakushoS
Summer Pleasures" in the February
Harper's, in which a native of Japan
describes some of the rural amusements
and recreations of his countrymen.
The widespread interest that is felt
in the career of Napoleon at this time
is very clearly shown by the fact that
of the November and December num-
bers of the Century, containing the
opening chapters of Prof Sloane's new
Life, more copies were sold than of
corresponding issues for several years
past. The January number is already
ont of print, and a large increase is
necessary in the regular February edi-
ton.
Probably no other paper has more
largely influenced public opinion in
America, through the views that have
been expressed and the reforms that
have been advocated in its editorial
columns, than has Harper's Weekly
during the thirty-eight years of it's ex-
istence: and it's recent political arti-
cles and signed and unsigned editori-
ais have been conspicuous for ability
and for constructive as well as destruc-
tive criticism
General Lord Wolseley makes most
important contribution to the litera-
ture of the China-Japan war. In an
article for the February Cosmopolitan,
he discusses the situation and does not
mince matters in saying what China
must do in this emergency. Two other
noted foreign authors contribute inter
esting articles to this number. Rosita
Mauri, the famous Partisan danseuse,
gives the history of the ballet. and
Emile Olivier tells the story of the fail
of Louis Philippe.

skipper Saw the Rocket Lights.

LoweStoft, Feb. 4.-The skipper of a
fishing smack that returned to this port
yesterday says that about the time
the collision occurred between the Elbe
and .Crathie he saw rockets. set off from
large steamer. He bore down toward
the vessel, but when within about 700
yards of it he lost sight of it. He saw
another steamer burning blue lights.
The skipper further says he saw a
third steamer which passed without
stopping to render assistance. The
smack cruised about for some time,
but no bodies or Wreckage We're seen.

DESCRIBES THE HORROR.
Rescued Man says the Passengers Were
Drowned by Hundreds.

LONDON, Feb 1.-The Elbe, it APP
pears, was on its way to Southampton
with fifty saloon passengers, about 100
Storage passengers, and a crew OF
$50. The morning was heavy and
misty, and the steamer was only MAX
ing usual time and keeping the ordi-
nary lookout. Suddenly steamer was
sighted off the port bow of the Elbe,
and before the collision could be avert
ed the unknown vessel had run into
the Elbe. The North German Lloyd
steamer was struck above the engine
room and began to fill so rapidly that
there was only time to lower three
boats and one of those was swamped
shortly after getting away from the
steamer. The first boat contained
the third officer, chief engineer, the
purser, and twenty passengers. The oc.
cupants of the first boat were picked
up by couple of fishing smacks and
were taken to Lowestoft, where they
have been landed. 1t has been found
difficult to get the officers of the steam
ship to make any statement until they
have communicated with the agents
of the Elbe, and the passengers who
have been rescued are as yet too ex'
cited to tell anything but rambling
stories. But from what can be gath
cred but short time must have
elapsed between the collision and the
sinking of the Elbe.
From what one of the rescued men
says the disaster must have been one
of the most terrible in the history of
such catastrophes. The whole of the
passengers are understood to have
been below and asleep at the time the
collision occurred and nearly all of
them must have been either drowned
below or have met death while seeking
to rush upon the deck.

CHINA BUYS WAR MATERIAL.
Spends s1,5oO,oOO With Krupp-supplies
on Four Steamers.

LONDON, Feb. 1.-The Standard says
to-day: 1T is reported that China has
bought war material from Krupp to
the value of 100000. Part of the ma
terial, it is SAID, is already aboard two
steamers, and two other steamers will
follow with the remainder. The
crews are to be paid treble rates.
A Japanese official in London said
in an interview to-day that he did not
expect that .Pekin would be reached
this winter. The object of the Japan
csc, he said, was not to capture Pekin,
but only to reap the fruits of their
victories. He thought that if the
terms of the Chinese peace ENJOYS
were reasonable peace could be con-
Guided before the end Of the winter.

IOWA PATENT OFFICE REPORT.

DIES MONIES, Jan. %, 1895.--The
Taylor Newell Co., of Des Moines, has
been allowed a patent for a trade
mark for pants, consisting of the
words, The Boys Friend.
A correspondent in Hardin county,
asks "Can an inventor sell territory
before a patent is allowed?" We
answer, yes. A good way is to take
some earnest money to bind the bar
gain and note for the balance of the
consideration, payable when patent
is allowed. Such a transaction is in
the nature of quit claim and legal.
C. Hohensbehn, of Waverly, has been
allowed patent for centrifugal
cream separator, for which he claims
several points of superiority over prior
inventions in this line. He will begin
the manufacture and sale of the sepa-
rators at once.
f. p. Fox, of Gamer, Ia, has been al
lowed a patent for an ingenious grading
and ditching apparatus adapted for
moving wheeled scrapers forwardly
and backwardly over the ground sur
face The apparatus is light and may
be easily transported by team of
horses, and effectively takes the place
of the so to IS ton steam shOvels now
in common use. Mr.. Fox has made
draining bitches in Hancock county
twenty-five miles in length and ex-
poets to use his invention in the Hen
nepin canal.
