THRILLING EXPERIENCE
Narrow Escape of the Crew of
the. Sloop Buffalo Bill
Capsized at The Mouth of the Rio
Grande and Carried Ten Miles
Out to Sea.

Oile O1 the ildIJOWSSb eSCd pes
from drowning ever recorded
was made by the crew of a sloop
which was capsized at the
mouth of the Rio Grande last
Saturday afternoon.
The sloop Buffalo Bill of
Port Lavaca, owned by c. Jones
and w. Johnson, arrived at
Point Isabel a few days ago.
Messrs. Jones and Johnson
came to this port to purchase
the schooner James Andrews,
belonging to Capt. A. Thorsell,
with a view Of going into the
fish business. They bought the
schooner and left Saturday af-
ternoon at two p. m, with a
Mexican named Jose Duarte on
board the sloop to assist them,
for the mouth of the Rio Grande
where the Andrews has been
laid up for some time, to bring
her to Point Isabel and fit her
out for the first trip. In cross
ing the river bar, at $40 p. M,
the sloop capsized.
The accident was witnessed
by Capt Flynn of Brazos life
saving station from Lookout,
and he at once made all haste
to render assistance, arriving
at the mouth of the river, a
distance of nine miles, at $50
p. m. The sloop was last seen
just about fifteen minutes be-
fore that lying on her side, with
the three men Clinging to her;
but when Capt. Flynn reached
the spot she had disappeared.
He launched his boat and pull
ed to where the sloop was last
seen but could find no trace of
men or vessel. He continued
the search until near midnight,
but could get no response to
his calls. Next morning the
search was renewed, Capt.
Flynn pulling miles off shore
and down the Mexican coast,
but to no avail, and he finally
gave up in despair, concluding
that the sloop had drifted out
into deep water and sunk car
rying her unfortunate crew
down with her.
All shared this belief and a
pail of sadness was cast over
the people of Point Isabel by
the news of the terrible disas
ter. Their sorrow, however, was
to joy, when at six
o'clock last evening the three
men who had been supposed
landed at the wharf
from a vessel which had brought
them over from Padre islands. |
Their story was soon told. The
5loop had indeed gone down,
but her cabin was detached, |
and on this the three men
caught clinging for dear life.
The current of the river carried |
this frail craft with its precious
burden of the three human lives
ten miles out to sea, when they |
were caught by the returning
tide and drifted back towards
the land, being landed at four
o'clock yesterday afternoon
about;three miles north of Bra2-
0s, on Padre island. They
were almost exhausted, having
ing been floating at the mercy

NAY An MACHINEs.


Reforms OF that class whose pulmo-
nary olf is stronger than their

theory that invention is the deadly
enemy OF labor. Occasionally these
weak champions of error are assisted
in their work by man OF brilliant

kind has shown to be false. The best
friend OF labor is now. and always has
been, the inventor OF labor-saving de-
vices. The machine is now, and al
ways has been, the helpful friend Of
man.
Carpenters, furniture makers and
brckmakers would be very scarce In
this country TO-DAY II it were the ten
dency OF mechanical inventions in their
respective lines OF work to throw them
out of employ Much, aud by far
the hardest part OF the labor formerly
done by these artisans is now per.
formed by machinery; but instead OF a
decrease of their numbers we find "A
large increase. The last census shows
that between the years 1850 aud $500
the number OF carpenters In the Uni.
ted States increased from 5s,5I7 to
l4O, 02l, aud their annual earnings were
about s675 The decrease, 1t will be
observed, was much larger IN proper
tion than the increase ia population.
But that is not the best feature Of
these figures The growth of average
earnings from siS9 to s775 is the peeul-
iarly gratifying fact OF the situation.
And all this time-from 1850 To is9O
there was a decrease in the cost of
subsistenee-a decrease largely due to
the use of labor-saying machinery.
The census oftiee shows that Ia fnrni.
ture the workers increased from So. 464
to 9s 0st. and the annual average earn
ings from Sass TO S5s7. II shows, too.
that brick-makers in 1850 were 50, Oae,
and in 1890 lO9, ISL, with an advance in
individual annual income OF over 20

An increase in numbers and earn
ings in these three classes of work is
what the most intelligent students of
political economy expected. for IL tai
lies with experience. But such facts
as these will be brushed aside by the
leather-lunged reformers. and theV

irrepressible conflict between man aud

will do no great amount OF harm, for

When the genial colonel called the

that nothing be said of his ingenious
