RHEUMATISM
AN AMERICAN SAILORS DEED
How He Saved Drowning Shipmate
at His Own Peril

"reminiscences of Commodore Dewey
are almost as numerous in Maine this
week as stories of Rappahannock. One
of the latest has William G. Grant, the
keeper of the Matinicus light, for its hero
1t was on windy day In 1864 that Commo-
dore Dewey was executive officer on the
United States vessel Colorado, on which
William Grant was a seaman. The Colo
RADIO was steaming into Hampton Roads,
Va, towing large boatload of sailors,
when the boat 'capsized and in a moment
every one was struggling in the water
All but one, however, succeeded in get
ting on its bottom. He sank.
A boat was lowered from the Colorado,
William Grant being one of the men as
signed to it. The men rowed with Will
and soon reached the overturned boat, and
the sailors clinging to its bottom. They
had so much Roadway that the boat shot
over the place where the unfortunate
man went down. Mr.. Grant was in the
bow, keeping sharp lookout for him when
he came to the surface. AS the boat
moved along he looked down into the wa
ter, which was very clear, and plainly saw
the man near the surface.
Like flash he scrambled to the stern
of the boat and without hesitating Sec
ond dived over the coxwains head for the
drowning man. He calculated just right,
and in moment had him by the collar
and succeeded in bringing him to the sur
face. Both men were taken into the boat,
and after hard work the half-drowned
sailor was revived. The next day Dewey
as executive officer called Mr.. Grant up
to the quarter deck and before every one
thanked him cordially for his bravery
in rescuing sailor.
A few years ago when Dewey, then
commodore, visited the Maine coast and
called upon Grant at Matinicus the incl
dent was recalled and Commodore Dewey
again complimented Mr.. CHARACTERIZATION

There is some reason in the proposition
that individuals who are charged with the
control of trust funds should not be in n
position to use them in general banking,
says the American Banker. The funds of
a saving institution are limited to certain
supposed to be absolutely safe invest
ments. But an officer in charge of such
funds who Is Officially connected with
commercial bank at the same time is often
tempted to use the savings deposits in di
rections which the law does not counte-
nance. OF course, no bank officer who re-
spects his obligations as a trustee. who is a
law-abiding man, will do this. But it has
been done so often and with results so dis
astrous that the separation by law of the
two functions has seemed to have become

AMERICANS THE MOST Liberal
Enormous Sums Spent in Europe by
Tourists

The amount of money expended by tour
lists in Europe has, if official records abroad
are to be accepted as authentic, increased
enormously of late years. There has been
recently filed with the Swiss minister of
finance and customs at Berne a detailed
statement of hotel receipts In that coun-
try, from which 1t appears that the gross
receipts of Swiss hotels rose from 81, 400 900
francs in 1880 to 114.333OOO francs in 1891.
The entire annual expenses of the Swiss
republic amount to between so 1000 900 and
90, 900 900 francs (the budget for this year
is given at the latter figure), and it would
seem, therefore, very much as If the hotels
of Switzerland take In in year more than
the government itself does.
The Swiss figures are not the only ones
furnished in Europe recently on this point.
The French record show that every year
there are 100000 foreigners who pass from
a fortnight to the whole winter on the Ri
viera. Every person is supposed to ex.
pend, on an average, 1000 francs, or 5000, in
the country In other words, the foreign
visitors spend in the country every winter
the sum of s54 ,00O,O 900. The English are put
down as contributing one-third; Germans,
Belgians, Dutch, Russians and Americans
contribute the remainder. From being &
very poor country when it was annexed to
France, in 1860, Nice has become one of the
richest departments of the republic.
Some figures recently compiled of the
revenues to hotels from tourists in Paris
show the average number of foreign visit
ors to be 60,000. 1t is customary to estimate
at 10 francs, or 81, a day each the hotel bills
of strangers in Paris. Estimating at 81 a
day each the hotel bills of 60 900 tourists.
and at about as much more their other out
lays, it is to be seen that tourists in Paris
can be put down for an expenditure of
nearly q quarter of million dollars d
day.
The total sum expended by tourists in
Europe in a year is probably not very far
from $7OO,oOO.0 900, and very considerable
portion of this comes from the pockets, the
purses and the bankers balances of Amer
leans. who are proverbially the most lib
eral among travellers. Russians come Sec

Prize List and It's Lesson

We can evidently give Spain lessons in
naval warfare, but this far greater activ-
ity of Spain in transoceanic commerce is
worthy Of Our attention. Distant colonial
possessions are not the cause of it. More
than half the twenty odd Spanish prize
vessels captured off the Florida coast
were engaged in commerce having no rea-
tions to Cuba. 1t is a proud fact for the
Spaniard that his flag is seen and known
in every part of the world. 1t might be so
of the American save for the absurd re-
strictions deliberately imposed upon his
shipping by antiquated laws.-Springfield
