Rescued in Mid.Ocean.

The story of one of the most remark
able rescues at sea ever reported was
brought in by the American line steamer
from Southampton, says n. Y. dispatch
under date of 18th inst. The st. Louis,
which reached her pier at noon, had on
board the III passengers and the crew of
So of the wrecked steamship Veendam, of
the HollandAmerican line. The veen-
dam struck a submerged wreck in mid
ocean Feb. s, which tore big hole in her
bottom and carried away her propeller
shaft. Not life was lost in the danger
Gus transfer of the passengers in mid
ocean in small boats. The Veendam was
set on fire and sank before the st. Louis
was out of sight. Not one of the passen-
gers nor any of the crew of the Veendam
saved anything except what they had on
when they were hustled into the boats.
The steerage passengers were compelled
to man the pumps in order to keep the
Veendam afloat until the last soul had
been taken off.
What adds local interest to this remark
able escape is the fact that Miss Mary e.
Ailinger, member of Hon. MP. Wheel
er's family of Endeavor, this county, was
a passenger on the ill-fated vessel. The
young lady was returning from a six
months sojourn in Europe. She lost all
her personal effects and wearing apparel
except that which she had on at the time
the rescue took place. Miss Ailinger is
eXl ected to reach home tomorrow.

Dedication of Mt, Zion Lutheran Church

The dedication of the Mt. Zion Luther
an Church on German Hill, which took
place last Sunday, was, notwithstanding
the muddy roads, we'll attended. The
seats were all well filled, over two hum
dred being present. The dedicatory SER
mon was delivered by Rev J. G. Trout
man, of Greenville, Pa, whose discourse
was full of interest and sound logic.
There were also services again on Sun
day and Monday evenings, by Rev. j..
Reimann of Oil City, which meetings
were also well attended.
A member of the church writes as fol-
lows: "Since our church has been dedi-
Gated it is our desire to thank the good
people of other churches who have so
literally donated toward our new build
ing they haye done far more than was
expected; few indeed that were ap-
preached that did not respond, and all
with a willing heart and hand. This is
evidence of good faith that all are work.
ing for the same cause though slight diff
ferences in forms, the essentials are the
same. This is as it should be; all Chris
tians should work in common good. The
writer would hail to see the day when all
the world would worship as one univer-
sal brotherhood. What wo as members
of this congregation have done it does not
behove for us to say. Whatever there
has been done, it has only been our duty.
But all is not done with the finishing of
the building; more noble work is yet
to be done; work that let us hope will
never be tiresome, that it will always be a
work that will benefit each and all
alike"

OUR INDUSTRIAL SUPPLEMENT.

THE REPUBLICAN issues TODAY an ex-
ira edition of about three. thousand copies
and presents to its readers two-page
supplement illustrative of Tionesta and

ute them judiciously, thereby giving the
town a boom which it could not attain in
any other way.

JERSEY CITY RIDING CLUB
Fourth Lesson Last Night
at Hexamer's Shows
Improvement.

The Jersey City Riding Club a an
other lesson last night at Hexamer's Rid
ing Academy. There were ten regular
members present with two guests, the
Misses Beatrice and Clarisse Koonz, and
Miss Katharine Crowen. whom the club
was fortunate in obtaining as ~chaperon.
They were a merry party, and there was
much fun in the ring. The lesson dr.
fered very Slightly from tina of last week,
save in the advancement of the club IL
self in the art Of riding. Still, though
the Improvement is constant. the riding
masters are just a little discouragtng
about the club as a whole appearing in
public at present, and as the Weather is
another argument against such a venture
there is a likelihood that the club will
not ride outside of Hexamer's academy
before spring.
Among those who rode last evening
were:-Miss Jessie Perry, Miss Aliaa
Koonz, Miss Beatrice Koonz. Miss Clarisse
Koonz. Miss Grace Toffey, Miss Nellie
Post, Mr.. George r. Beach. Mr.. Clarence
Harmsted, Mr.. Charles Negus. Mr.. Oli-
Yer Hazard Perry, Jr., and Mr.. William
Ridgway.
