MAYOR VAN WICK A HERO
Rescued and Revived Three Young
Women from Drowning.

NEW YORK. Aug. S.-Mayor Van Wyck,
who has been summering at Freeport, L. L.,
to-day distinguished himself as life-saver
of no mean ability by rescuing three young
women from drowning. The rescued were
Miss Pennie Lowndes, daughter of Rev. Ar
thur Lowndes, assistant rector of ST.
Thomas's Church, of this city; Miss Clara
Printz and Miss Eliza Heinsheimer, both of
Cincinnati The three young women went
in bathing in Jamaica bay, about two hum
dred yards from the hotel where Mayor
Van Wyck was stopping. Miscalculatng
the depth of the water on account of the
tide, Miss Lowndes, the only one of the trio
who could swim. got out over her depth and
could not get back to the beach. The other
two young women, although they could not
swim. started to her rescue. They were in
stantly beyond their depth.
The cries of the struggling young women
attracted the attention of Mayor Van
Wyck who was sitting on the porch, and
he Immediately threw off his coat and ran
to the rescue. Unaided he brought the
three to the beach. They were all uncon-
scious. The mayor then gave orders to the
excited spectators to procure barrels.
Three were brought and each of the I'M
conscious girls was placed over a barrel
at the direction of the mayor and rolled
until revived. Miss Lowndes and Miss
Heinsheimer regained consciousness in a
few minutes, but Miss Prints condition is
much more serious though not necessarily
fatal

AS TO FISH STORIES.
Assertion that the True Angler Is Not

The Rev. DIR. Myron w. Reed. once of
all devotees of the gentle pastme OF angling

only been one man who could tell true
fish story. lie was the disciple Peter and
Peter said: We toiled all night and caught
nothing.
1t is difficult to believe that DR.. Reed is
the author of this remarka BILE observation
for he himself was once an angler, and less
than twenty years ago the big ripple at

he 'toiled all night" No angler fishes at
night.
AS might be- expected. in starting out with
a wrong premise DR. Reed readily falls into
other errors, and chief among them Is the
assumption that men who fish must lie The
truth is, the unveracious raconteur Of fish
stories is usually a man who does not know
the difference between a pole and a rod.
Generally he has acquired his entire ex-
fishing boat. and the boatman has 10 halt
his hook for him. These are the men who
estimate sport by the weight al number of
their catch, and in relating their adventures
resort 70 meretricious methods to magnify
their skill
The true angler has no such temptation.
He does not angle for fish as murn as he
does for sport. Therefore he uses rods az

and most alluring Of bats. He gives his
quarry fair chance. 1t is skill against
strength. He whips out his line from the
covered bank of the stream and the leader
drops on the water lightly as fly. Then
comes the rise, the strike and the struggle.
Sometimes ii takes half an hour to land q
big fellow, after fight that drives from the
stream every other fish within sight. Some
times the fish gets away, but the sport is
not the less keen on that account. 1t has
earned its liberty-won the highland no
true angler begrudges his loss.
There is no reason why the angler should
deceive. The artist is not accused of I'M
truthfulness when he depicts a scene that
charms his gaze. The poet is not discredited
when he describes a bit of landscape that
caught his fancy. To the true angler tho
beauty of wood and stream are as much a
part of the pastime as the angling They all
enter into the sport
Between the Florida tourist who has HIM

grown tarpon, which he probably did not
catch, and the Maine vacationist, who poses
before the camara holding string of trout

lined the streets by hundreds and filled the
air with cheering with the arrival of Gen.

Americans now operating near Ponce about
5000 men, equal TO the entire force of Span

marched seventeen miles from Yauco to
Ausby, where it arrived travel stained and

lation saw the troops pass through the
city, and gave them cheer after cheer, par
ticularly as the artiller ymen numbered by.
The officers at the front, including Hull

the four advance companies, do not believe
the Spaniards will make advance. They
claim the enemy viii act only on the de-
fensive. There was some firing last night
between Captain AuStin'S pickets and the
Spaniards in the brush but no damage was
done. All the American troops are restless,
due to false alarms of the approach of the
Spaniards, and they are anxious for an en-
counter with the enemy 1t is the general
belief however, that there will be no for
