was suffering from morphine poison.
AS his condition was considered criti-

the hospital in the ambulance. As
soon as the hospital was reached the
man was taken to the battery room and
electricity applied, but it failed to
revive him, and he died from the effects

SAVED BY CHANCE.
shIpwrecked Crew Picked Up After
Drifting More Than Three Days.


Seven men and one woman, COM
posinc the crew of the schooner Rising
Star. after drifting in helpless condi-
tion on a leaking vessel down storm
lathed Lake Michigan from Tuesday
noon until Friday night, were towed
into Chicago Saturday by the steamer
Colin Campbell. The schooner's crew
had given up all hope, and worn with
fatigue and exposure to the icy blast,
we're clinging to the rigging when the
Campbell sighted their signals OF dis
tress. The Rising Star, lumber laden,
cleared at Green Bay, Wis, on Tues
day for Chicago. In the afternoon the
boat sprung leak. The pumps were
manned and by hard work the vessel was
kent afoat. The hold was filed with
vaser, and water-sosked bread alone
kept the crew from starving. In the
terrible storm which ragged Thursday
and Friday the dtckload and upper
works were carried away. The boat
drifted helpltssly out OF the path OF
lake travel, and it was by mere chance
that en- Friday evening the Colin Camp
bell sighted the wreck. The members
Of the crew, although suffering terribly
from cold and hunger, will recover.
