 CoPPERINGa.

Rather extensive preparations are being made today for the farewell party which is to be tendered to Mise Jennie Humphrey at the rink tonight. The young lady expects to depart for her old home in New Me1leo in c few days and her friends have decided 10 give her their parting regrets this evening. Mics Humphrey hes no. been with us very long, but her never failing good nature and mirthfulnese have won her e great many friends all of whom are sorry to hear of her departure,
 BiI,of our residents have been supboened for witnesses and jurors for the coming term of court to be held at the county seat on the 10th. Many dejected looking faces are to be noted in conse quenee-possibly the result of the election may be the cause.
 The boys got . great joke on Windy Dick on election day and have bssu making the most Of it ever since. Dick unwittingly made c bet several dave before election, in the prsst nee of several members of the orpos'ne parties, and ss consequence he was promptly challenged on presenting himself at the polls Tuesday morning. The challenge was as much of joke as anything else but Dick was not aware of the fact and concluded that he didn't want to vote anyway. From that moment his life has been ore series of dissppointment- and he is now spending the greater part of his time at his chicken ranch boring over . thumb-mar volume entitled Life of Mark Hsnns." He tried to come up town on several occasions, but whenever there was any political talk going on Dick was alwsys informed ,hst he was like that proverbial steam engine which did the puffing and snorting but couldn't vote. This got very wearisome to his "tslkative high pess," % he determined to isolate him. self until ths ine0uvsnisncs dies out.

RESCUED IN MID OCEAN
Seamtn From a Wrecked Norwegian
Bark Picked up by a Steamer,
WERE AORIFT FOR NINE DAYS
Had Lost All Hope of Being
Saved.
Associated Press Dispatch by Special wires.

Associated Press Dispatch by Special Wires.
Philadelphia, Pa. Oct. IA. The nine
members of the crew of tho ship
wrecked Norwegian bark Luise, who
were picked up by the steamer Evelyn
10 days ago, after battling with the
waves for nine days, and brought to
this port, came to the office of the Nor
wegiau consul in this city to-day and
told their story. The men all show evil
dence of the awful hardship they en-
dured while aaoat in open boats. Nearly
all are suffering from saltwater boils
three members of the crew with him,
the captain being in another boat and
having as companions Second Mate
Gunderson and the remaining three
members OF the crew. Tillachsen says
that for the last few days he was
practically alone in his boat, his COM
panions having given up all hope of
rescue and thrown themselves in the
bottom of the boat, whore they laid
more dead than alive, until the Evelyn
was sighted. This was at II. 80 o'clock
Saturday night, October 3D.. A torch
was prepared from oakum, soaked with
kerosene. which was tied to a stick.
The gale at the time was so strong that
two boxes OF matches were exhausted
before they finally succeeded in pro-
ducing flame on the torch. Mean
while the lights of the steamer were
slowly disappearing, but when the
blazing torch was waved in the air the
shipwrecked men were oyerjoyed to
observe the answering signal. The
steamer approached the two boats and
attempted to lower life-boat. This
was stove. however, before it touched
the water. A wide detour was then made
by the steamer and she got to leeward
of the two boats that were being tossed
on the crest OF the waves. and with the
aid Of the shelter thus afforded, their
occupants wero able to row to the side
of the steamer, from which ropes we're
tossed to them, and they were hauled on
board. AS soon as tie boats in which
the Luise's crew had been ahoat for
nine days were abandoned they were
dashed to pieces against the side of the
rescuing steamer.
As near as the men could Judge they
were in the middle of the ocean when
they abandoned the Luise. They
steereu an eastward course, hoping to
strike the course of the steamships,
but until the Evelyn was sighted not a
sign of a sail was seen. During all this
time the clothing the men wore was
soaking wet. Soon after abandoning
the ship the biscuit became soaked
with salt water and after that the only
food they had was a small portion Of
canned beef each day.
The Norwegian concern which owns
the Luise has lost five ships in the
last two years, none OF them insured.
Capt. Emendson and Mates Tillachsen
and Gunderson will be returned to
Christiana by the Norwegian consul.
The other members OF the crew, who
were shipped at Mobile, will be sent
home alec.

the vessel righted, but the decks wero
ripped up. the cabin was washed out

had piyen way. When the train en-
tered the station shed, it was found
tbat the forward axle on the rear end
nf Tho car had broken. The passengers
rare ordered out and the car was taken
n The shops. IL is fortunate that the
sr,s did not collapse while the train
was running at full speed, as such an
accident might have resulted seriously.
