Sighted Eight Hundred Miles East of sandy
Haok-An Wen on Board-She Declined
Aid is Making Port slowly,
New York. July 29-'rhe Cunard line
steamship Aurania, while on her way
to this port from Liverpool, which place
she left on July 90 met with some ac-
cdent, the nature of which is not yet
known, 1t is not, however, believed to
be of serious nature.
The Atlantic Transport line steam
ship Manitoba arrived from London to-
day and reported having sighted the
Auranla on last Friday might in dis
@bled condition.
The Aurania was then about 500
miles east of Sandy Hook, in latitude
AIS, longitude 55.57
The Manitoba sighted the Cunarder
at o'clock in the evening. Her cap
tain saw three red lights displayed from
the vessel, and knew that she was dis
abled. He ran close to her and spoke
her
Captain Griffith Of the Manitoba, on
learning that the ship was disabled, Of
fered assistance.
Captain Mckay of the Aurana de-
clined, stating that no aid was needed.
| He said that all on board were we'll
and asked to be reported in New York.
Captain Griffith did not learn the
nature of the accident, but in speak
ing of it to-day expressed the opinion
that it could not be of very serious
nature or Captain Mckay would not
have declined aid
| Little or no fear for the safety of
the vessel was felt at the company's
| office on Bowling Green to-day. She
was one of the best ships Of the line.
| She was due to arrive here yesterday.
| General Manager Floyd said that
from the fact that she refused assist
ancc she could not be in a serioas way
and would certainly make port very
| shortly.
! Her showing three red lights" he
said, simply means that she was not
under command, and was warning
to other vessels to keep out of her
way.
! Something may have happened to
her machinery, and she may simply
have been lying to for repairs. Had
she been in bad way she would have
accepted aid from Captain Griffith"
The Aurania was built at the yard of
j. & g. Thomson at Clydebank, and
was launched in 1887. Her gross regis
ter is $500 tons. She is constructed of
steel throughout
Her dimensions are: Length, 470 feet
extreme breadth, 81 feet; depth mould
ed. 80 feet. Her engines are capable
of developing 10000 horse power
She has 1853 staterooms, affording ac-
commodation to 500 first class passen-
| gers. In addition to this she has ac-
commodations FOR about 500 Storage
passengers. Until the Lucania and
Campania were built she was regarded
as one Of the fastest boats Of the Cum
ard line, and is still considered one Of
the stanchest.
She can steam at about an 1S-knot
gait. Under ordinary conditions she
makes the trip from Liverpool in seven
days. She carries a very large spread Of
sail.

BASERdLL EIGHT.

Edgewoods and Milfords in II Squabbler
Manager Munson Of the M. A "A. ball
team of Milford said yesterday that
If the Edgewoods called Saturdays play
a game, he would cancel the game.
scheduled for Friday at Savin Rock.
The Milford men claim that when
Young hit the two-bagger he reached
second safely and started for third.
Before he got there the ball was fielded
to Cameron at third and the umpire.
Smith, seeing no escape for Young, turn
ed away. Young rushed into Cameron
and knocked the ball out of his hands,
PREACHING third safely: Smith did not
see this part of the program, 1t is
claimed, and hence the kick Smith
would not change the decision of out
and the Milfords retired from the field.
Each team is a big drawing card for
the other and provided Munson does
not relent all future games between the
mines will be cancelled.
Some time ago the Milford manager
asked Griest, the Edgewood manager,
to retract certain statements published
regarding Ill treatment in Milford and
threatened to cancel the dates but the
matter was settled quietly and the dates
were filled
The trouble at Saturdays game was
due to the fact that Smith, the umpire,
did not watch the runner after he
thought he was out and before the third
base was reached This fact will seri-
ously interfere with the arrangements
of both teams. Omar Platt, captain;
French and Adds of the Milfords, all
refused to play Fridays game when
asked yesterday.

A NARROW ESCAPE.
Two Swimmers Rescued when Almost
Exhausted.

Two of a camping-out, party at john
sons Point in No Mans Land, opposite
Pawson Park, had a narrow escape
from drowning Sunday afternoon about
half-past three. At about that hour
the cottagers at Mansfield Grove no
ticed boat with oars in the oarlocks,
but without occupants, drifting out
from Johnson's Point into the sound
About thirty feet in the rear of the
boat were two men swimming. The
boat seemed to be drifting faster than
the men were swimming and as it went
further and further out the villagers
decided that they would be witnesses
to a double drowning unless something
was done Immediately. Accordingly
Edward Jones and John Chidsey put
out in boat after the swimmers. They
reached them just as they were about
exhausted, and pulled them into the
boat. The men said they could not
have held out five minutes longer.

spoke OF the husbandman aud his work,
irst in soWingth the seed after the ground
is prepared, then the work OF keeping
out tue weeds and everything that
would hinder the growth, and finally
the harvest
There must be seed time or there
can be no harvest, There must be a
sowing or there can be no rsaping. He
next applied it to tho subject OF educa.
ton. This is the time tor sowing or
planting the good seed in the mind.
This should'be done in youth.
While speaking on this point, he
made powerful plea for the boys OF
tho city Of Wheeling-a plea that every
parent in the city ought to take to
heart lie said it 10 almost criminal
the way the boys were taken from

early. It was not right that three girls
