A THRILLING RESCUE.
Bravery of Boats Crew from the
Steamer Standard Saves
Human Life.

Philadelphia, Nov. 9.-The German
oil tank steamer Standard, which has
arrived here, brings Andres Anderson
a sailor who was rescued at sea on DC.
tober 10 from the wrecked Norwegian
bark Sigrid. The rescue by boats
crew from the Standard was a thrill
ing and valiant one and was accom-
plished after one boat had been dashed
to pieces against the side of the steam
er and number of daring attempts
had been made to reach the wrecked
bark. Finally Anderson was thrown a
rope, which he fastened about him and
then jumped into the sea. He was
dragged into the boat in an uncon-
scious condition. Anderson says the
remainder of the crew had been taken
off the bark by an unknown vessel. He
had evidently been forgotten, for the
crew failed to come back to rescue him.
The derelict was left in latitude IS. 43
north, longitude o.43 east, nearly sub
merged.

A tested method of preserving eggs
for winter use is given by Professor
Washburn, of the Oregon Experiment
Station, as follows: Dissolve one pint
of salt in one gallon of water; slack
two pounds of quick lime in three
gallons of water; when Stacked stir
and allow to settle two or three times;
then pour the liquid off into II crock
or any receptacle that can be covered
and add the salt water, making in all
four gallons of liquid. Eggs placed
in this must be perfectly fresh, clean,
and not cracked, and they must be
lowered carefully into the liquid.
Eggs preserved in this way will keep
perfectly for year, and have been
kept longer.

GEN MILES REPORT IS IN.
Hint That Certain Portions of 1t VIII
Be Withheld from Pub
LEGATION.

Washington, Nov. 9.-Maj. Gen. Mel
son A. Miles has completed and sub
mitted to the war department his re-
port covering the entire period of hos,
tilities between the United States and
Spain.
1t could not be learned at the war
department whether this report in its
entirety will be given out for publica-
ton in the near future or at all. II
is limited that certain portions of the
report may be withheld. The sum and
substance of the reasons for holding it,
1t is asserted is the fact that the re-,
port is said to deal squurely with mat
tiers that certain officials prefer to keep
In the background.
Friends Of Gen. Miles who claim to
be cognizant of the contents of the
report say it is exhaustive in dealing
with the minutest details, aud many
things which have not been clear to
the general public as to the conduct OF
the war are fully and comprehensively
explained.
That the report is thorough and ex-
Ihaustive is shown by the fact that il
covers nearly 200 sheets of closely type.
written manifold paper and includes
all dispatches sent by and received by
Gen. Miles. 1t, in fact, covers all the
part taken by the army in the war
and deals in the most minute particu.
lars with the period beginning with
Gen. Miles landing in Cuba and until
he left the island of Porto Rioo to
come home.
The reference to the Santiago cam.
paign alone takes up many pages. The
invasion and occupation of Porto Rice
is given in detail. 1t is also mentioned
that Gen. Miles conferred with Admiral
Sampson and asked the admiral to pro.
tect the landing of United States troops
on Cuban soil, which was done. The
report also refers to the warning Gen
Miles gave to Gen. shafter, and in plain
English criticises Gen. Skaters con.
duct OF the campaign in Santiago.
The report practically states that the
muddled condition of matters relating
to the army status is due to the fact
that much information that was given
out was contradicted by the secretary
of war.
The report makes no reference to the
so-called Alger-Miles controversy, but
none of the statements credited to Gen
Miles are reiterated. A friend of Gen
Miles said: 1.-THE general will not make
the report public, but the secretary Of
war will give it out. He will not dare
to keep it back. 1t will be bitter pill
for Alger, but when it is known that
the report has been submitted the de,
mand for it will be great"

Dug His Own Grave.

Speaking Of strange and sad occur
rences, none could be more remark
able than the death and burial Of
Charles Carter, well-lSnown farmer
residing near Russell, reports the
Kansas City Journal. He was clean
ing out an old we'll, when the quick
sand suddenly caved in on him, leav-
ing only his head and chest exposed.
When the alarm was given hundreds
of people assembled and, went heroic
ally to work to save their neighbor.
It was found that nothing could be
done toward removing the sand about
Carriers body, SO parallel well was
dug and tunnel run from 1T into the
old we'll, but even then the body could
not be removed, SO closely was it
grasped by the sands. 1t was found
that rope attached below Carter's
arms would pull the body into parts
without withdrawing its covered por-
ton, and that method had to be
| abandoned. Carter was conscious and
talked with his rescuers, but at the
end of IS hours he died. By this time
an enormous crowd had gathered and
all sorts of plans were suggested for
recovering the body, but finally it was
determined to make the well the dead
mans tomb, and 1t was filled up after
| religious services had been held upon
the brink. The we'll was 4S feet deep,
and perhaps no other Kansan ever
found quite SO strange burial place,

There is no consistency in taking
your religion from one source, and your
politics from another.
An effort to force the world to com.
form to the church always results in
conforming the church to the world.
What the church needs today is not
Sunday laws, but something to separate
her more clearly from the world.
The effectiveness of human law
depends altogether upon public senti-
ment. The effectiveness of the divine
law is altogether Independent of public
sentiment
1t is better for the worldly man to be
engaged in honest work on the Sabbath
or in innocent recreation, than to be
going through the forms of Sabbath
keepings
If the apostles had turned from the
preaching of reform through faith in
Christ. TO the preaching of political or
legislative reforms, the world would
have been sunk in evil long ago.
1t is better to lean upon God than
upon a Sunday law. He who leans upon
God does not need any other support
and he who does not lean upon God
will fall in spite of all the support that
religious legislation can furnish.
The man who believes he ought not
to keep Sunday, and has the courage
of his convictions In the face of all
opposition, is of more value to his COM
munity and to the state than the one
who believes likewise, but has not the
courage to do what lie thinks is right.
