MEMBER
HAS BEEN SAVED

savannah, Ga, Feb. mem
Der of the crew of the wrecked steamer
William Lawrence has been saved, but
only after the greater number of them
had suffered terrible h%ardships. The
ugs ambria and Cynthia came in this
evening from the Sea islands off South
Carolina, bringing with them Capt. A. L.
Willis and IS men, constituting those
who had been missing since Sunday
morning, when the shin was aban-
doned in the breakers off Port Royal.
The tug Cambria left the city at day
break this morning and searched every
island and inlet nOrthward until the
~castaways were found. AT 9 O'Clock the
party was discovered on Hunting island
and taken on board the Cambria.
Captain Willis and his men suffered
but little less than the crew of Mate
Beale's boat, which had been tied up
at the sea buoy, as told in last nights
dispatches. They left the ship at 9
o'clock Sunday morning. After u hours
at sea in a binding and freezing gale the
two boats under the captain and the first
officer made land on Capers island, a
desolate and bare little sand spot. In
Bleaching both boats We're Smashe and
the men thrown into the surf. Though
almost exhausted and numb, they man
aged to scramble beyond the reach of the
waves. NnaC nrie DraCkiSn Qf1nklTS
water they had was lost, together with
the biscuits, long since wet through with
water. There was no fresh water and
extremely little fuel on the island, nor
shelter Of any shape. The captain had a
few matches in a metallic box in his
pocket. They were found to be dry. Tear
ing the seats out of the wrecked boats,
after much coaxing a fire was made
under the lee of a sand dune. The linn
tied fuel kept the men from freezing
to death. The men lowered over the
little blaze all during the sleet and
snow storm of Sunday night and Mon
day, when the mercury was marking.
eight to ten above zero.
On Tuesday morning one Of the boats
was temporarily repaired and both crews
got into it to try to each Port Royal.
They had been without food since Sun
day morning and without water since
Sunday afternoon. After painful efforts
they reached Hunting island. Some SOL
diers were stationed there. They took
them in and fed and watered them. Capt.
Willis says that at the time the ship
struck the weather was so thick that he
could not see half the length of the ship.
He said also something was wrong with
his compass and that the ship was some
! what out of her course. Capt. Willis mas
been in the service of the for
20 years.

ONE OF LIFEHS r SEES

Last summer two ~Well-knoWn young
Cleveland men were spending their va
cation in a small town in Michigan. They
didn't take a very extensive wardrobe
with them. and on receiving an invitation
to a party to be given the following even
ing, proceeded to take stock of their wear
ing apparel. Their trousers would be de-
cidedly improved, they discovered, by be-
ing freshly creased and pressed. The
small town affording no professional art
list in this line, they had to depend entire
ly upon their own skill.
However, they We're equal to the emer-
gency.
One of them had read, or been told, that
if the trousers owner would, on retiring
at night, carefully fold his neither gar
ments and place them beneath his mat
tress he would find them in the morning
nicely pressed and creased. Happy
thought.
SO they smoothed and folded each pair
with nice eXactness, and then laid them
down to peaceful slumber.
In the mornirg they fOUnd their trous-
ers smoothed and creased, as toretold
b~ut-heavens and earth. with the fold re-
versed!
To keep the garments free from dust
and lint they had turned them wrong side
out!

CANAL BILL
KNOCKED OUT
House Sustained the Chairs
Ruling.
FATE OF THE BILL SETTLED
Its Friends Were Confident But in the
Voting Its Opponents Were
Victorious.

Washington, Feb. 5.-The house today
settled the fate of the Nicaragua canal
bill in this congress by refusing to over
rule the decision of the chair in commit
tee of the whole, when the chair held
that the canal bill offered as an amend
ment by Mr.. Hepburn was out of order.
The friends of the Nicaragua bill were
very confident yesterday and today that
they would triumph, but after foul hours
of debate the chair was sustained, 127-
109. Mr.. Bailey, the democratic leader,
made an argument in favor of the view
that the amendment was in order. Mr..
Grosvenor bore the brunt of the argu-
ment today in behalf of this contention.
Mr.. Moody, Mr.. Dockery and Mr.. Flem-
ing were pitted against him.
The debate throughout the day was ex-
ceedingly spirited, and in the end a ma
jority Of the members refused to override
the house rules. No record is made of
the vote in the committee of the whole.
Party lines were not adhered to, the d.
vision in favor Of the motion to sustain
the chairs decision being about equal on
both sides of the political aisles. About
IL pages of the sundry civil bill were dis
posed of today.

HE DIDN'T LIKE THE WORD.

'srhe simplest efforts last the longest"
said the gifted lecturer. Look at Mary's
.lamb-forever embalmed in deatthless
verse;
At this moment a tall stranger in the
audience suddenly arose and IN a voice
choked with hot emotion, tierceiy cried:
You're a liar"
Then he dramatically stalked from
the room. o.
""Who was that MANI" inquired the
startled lecturer.
"Oh,' said the chairman ofthe lecture
committee, you mustn't mind him. He
belongs to the commisSary department."

Clinton Woman Fears
She Has Lost Her
Horse.
HIBERNIANS' ANNUAL MEETING.
Much Speculation Regard
ing Vote of the Special
Town Meeting.

Clinton, June 4.-Chief Oren B. Bates
has sent an alarm to the police of other
towns for the apprehension of James
McNiff, who at last accounts was said
to be travelling in a direction away
from his home in Boylston with horse
that belongs to Mrs. Rosa Burke of
that quiet, old village
Saturday afternoon Mrs. Burke
called upon Chief Bates to request his
good offices. Mrs. Burke keeps a board
ing house for white men," as she ex-
presses it, near the South Clinton rail-
road depot, just over the line that di-
vides this town from Boylston. In ad-
ditioE to her boarding house business,
she keeps several teams of horses,
which she lets to contractors on the
metropolitan work.
McNiff is one of her men. Saturday
morning she sent him to Worcester to
bring home d horse from the livery
stable of o. a. Kelley, 81 Foster. After
ward she suspected that she had per-
haps made Il mistake in the man. Dur
ing the afternoon McNiff went to the
SNdBiC anu IOOh the nOISS. 1HlS was at
6 o'clock He started, as the owner of
the stable supposed, for home. Three
hours later in the evening. however, he
appeared with all he could carry
aboard, and tried to borrow 10 cents of
one of the employees. Then he rode
away in the direction of Marlboro.
He was seen on the Shrewsbury road
after o'clock, and in Marlboro about
1870. He was in the saddle on Doth
occasions. The horse he rides is a bay
that weighs about 1000 pounds. 1t has
a white star on its forehead. The SAD
ole is made of gray leather.
This afternoon the Marlboro police
telephoned Chief Bates that they had
not been able to find any trace of Nc
Mfr since 1880, Saturday night.
McNiff is about 80 years old. He
weighs about $50 pounds, and is 5 feet
9 inches tall. He has been in the army
and carries himself erectly. When last
seen he had on pair of blue soldiers
trousers.
The Worcester spy. [volume] (Worcester, Mass.) 1898-1904, 1899-06-05

that he was opposed to repairs and in
favor of new station, as being more
economical
MT. McGlinchey was induced to assent
TO the report of the other two members
OF the committee, by the statement that
the metropolitan water board was will
ing to give $500 to repair the old police
station, but not willing to give it to
bulld new one. Thus, the town would
have to bear all the expense of a new
building and only some $4,000 of the
total expense for repairs.
This alleged purpose of the water
board was used with deadly effect in
town meeting, in a manner that could
not have been more skillful 'if it had
been planned in advance.
Judge Stone read a letter in which the
metropolitan water board stated that
it had decided to stand by its original
offer of $500. Town Treasurer Shaw
took the floor and asked if there We're
any conditions. The reply was in sub
stance that the conditions were the
original conditions, by which the voters
We're allowed to understand that the
$1,000 could be had for repairs, but not
for new building
The clause in the town warrant which
asked for $4,000 with which ito buy
land and build a new police station,
remained a mystery until last night,
when it was skillfully used to increase
the vote for repairs. The chairman of
the committee said that the land occu-
pied by the old court house and police
station was not enough to erect a new
station on; that new land would GER
tainly have to be purchased if new
station should be decided upon.
The small attendance at the meeting
is explained by the circumstance that
everybody with few exceptions, sup
posed as matter of course that the
extra appropriation would be voted
down.
The matter is likely to swell to the
proportions of scandal before it is
closed. There isn't business man IN
town who can see the economy of ex-
pending nearly $4,000 in repairing q
