STORY OF A DERELICT.
A Dead Man Steered the Schooner
Gen. Siglin.
Hair-Curling Discovery Made by the
Crew of the British Ship Arietis
Horrible Death Struggle
of "a Brave Sailor.

Arietis is British sealing schoon-
er commanded by Capt. Martin. She
had an experience the other day 100
miles west of the Queen Charlotte group
the recollection of which her crew will
carry with them to their dying days.
The weather was good and all was well
aboard the Arietts, when suddenly the
lookout sighted something that made
his eyes start. His nostrils grew tense,
his skin frightened about the roots of
his hair and all the eerie tales of the
sea that he had heard since he was
lad crowded into his mind.
There, see-sawing aimlessly through
the water at the mercy of wind and
wave, derelict foated low in the water,
stripped of masts and canvas. She had
battled with the sea and the sea had
won, and now she drifted, hither and
thither, as aimlessly as cork in the
water.
And the skipper sat astern with his
knees drawn up under his chin.
"Hallo!" shouted one of the sailors
from aloft the Arietis.
But the man astern never answered;
he sat there as indifferently as his boat
rode the waves, and he never answered
the signal.
The men aboard the Arietis stopped
talking. It made them feel creepy to
see the little bobbling boat and her
'crouching skipper; they would have
liked drink of brandy. A fair breeze
soon brought the sealer alongside the
derelict, and they saw that the shippers
face was blue, and that he had been
long dead
AS the Arietis' men boarded the
schooner she was lying so deep in the
water that they stepped from their
boats to the roof of her cabin. Water
flooded everything; only the taffrail
was dry. The foremast lay across the
bow only few feet from the waves,
and over the scene Of utter desolaMon
the dead skipper kept watch.
Death had long released the suffer
,ings of the man on watch. In forlorn
hope he had lashed himself to the star

one hope had been that some craft
would rescue him, but the hope failed
him.
Beside the corpse was a box of

of curry and two medicine bottles,

he began his desperate watch for

cles indicated that the seaman had be-

storm began and that he had probably
been abandoned by the rest of the crew.

DEVLIN is WILLING.

Topeka, September 2O.-Charles Devlin.
the big coal operator in Illinois, and one
of the largest individual operators in the
United States, stands by the miners who
are fighting for living wages and against
the operators who meet at Springfield to-
day to try further to reduce wages.
In an interview this morning he said;
'The miners of Illinois should get
price equal to the Columbus scale. The
price which they were forced to accept
last May and which they refused to con-
tinue to work for is not enough TO keep
body and soul together. The average
miner with steady work could rot average
more than 81 per day the year round.
Slavery for the miners would be prefer
able TO the wages they are getting, for In
slavery they would have enough to eat
and drink and wear. while under the
nresent conditions and with the present
nrices they are forced to work for, they
cannot buy provisions enough to i've
on let alone themselves and their fam
lies. Since they came out the price or
provisions has advanced, particularly
aour which has risen not less than 81
per hundred"
He says he is willing to join the op-
orators in paying a price equal to the
Columbus scale, and will use every EFFORT
in that direction. He says he has yet TO
meet the first large consumer of coal who
Is not in favor of giving the miners
