WHISKY SAVED HIS LIFE.
mississippi Steamboat Man Preserved
HIS Anatomy Intact.

mississippi Steamboat Man Preserved
His Anatomy Intact.
Charles Gross is q white headed me-
gro porter on the steamboat st. Paul,
says the st. Louis Republic.
Charlie has some very pronounced
opinions, which amount to convictions.
One of these is that, while whisky costs
some men their lives, it saved his.
Seven years ago Charlie was porter
on the Mascot. packet boat running
between St. Louis and Cape Girardeau.
He had been imbibing a prodigious
amount of fire water when a friend of
his came into the saloon on the levee
where he was enjoying himself and
said; you mus hur' up, Charlie. Yoh
boats ringin' her bell
What # she is?" said Charlie. IN
go on the mex trip" and he returned to
the can
The Mascot went on her way with
out Charlie, and when she was opposite
Nelgh's Landing she blew up, killing
most of her crew. So Gross is firm in
the belief that an all-ordering Provi-
dence gave him that remarkable ca
pacity for fiery fluid in order to save
him from the fate of the sober mem
oers of the crew.
He has sworn off since at the empha tic
request of Capt. Burke, but what he has
lost in the way of accomplishments in
the line of throwing beer into hissglf"
has been the cause of anxiety on his
part. He is superstitious about the
cup that inebriates" and fears that
some day he will be punished, as un-
grateful friends are likely to be, by the
blowing up of the st. Paul and all her
sober. CREW
