HE EARNED HIS MEDAL.
Heroic Act of a Stoker on a Rr,t,.h
Warship.

"hrsnlp.
Towards the end of the wear 1907
the British torpedo-boat Thrasber
with its mates Lynx and Sunfish, left
st. Ives on passage to Falmouth. On
the way the Thrasher grounded on
point, causing Serious injury In the
bcUers and the bursting OF the main
feed-pipe. The burst pipe instantly
filled the stokehold with scalding
steam. In it were two stokers Ed.
ward Lynch and James Paul. All the
rest OF the boats company were land
ed on the rocks, but the doubling up
Of the deck had prevented the egress
OF the stokers by the starboard hatch
way. There was still a port hatch
way, which was partially closed and
towards this the two men made their
way, Lynch in the lead. Directly un-
der the hatchway and discharging
through it, was the break in the steam
pipe. Lynch rush through it safely,
and turned to help his mate Paul.
But an instant convinced him that
Paul was unable to follow. Then
Lynch lay down on the deck with his
head and face in the escaping steam,
seized hold of the sinking Paul, and
by remarkable exercise of force and
tenacity drew him up on the deck.
Lynch then rose to his feet, but il
was observed that he was badly scald
ed about the head, arms and upper
part of the body. The surgeon began
to apply oil and wool to his burns, but
he repealed the attention I'm all
right" he exclaimed; look after my
chum! He's very bad!' He had said
nothing about the way he had rescued
Paul, but his manly conduct led the
surgeon to investigate, and 1t was as
certained that, in order to rescue his
comrade. he had plunged the whole
upper part of his body into what was
practically a boiling cauldron More
than this, it appeared that Lynch had
previously sacrificed his own chance
of escaping from the stokehold the
other way in order to stay with Paul
In recognition of this act of selfsac-
riflce and bravery, Lynch was pre-
sented with the Albert Medal of the
first class. which is given primarily
for gallantry in saving or attempting
to save life at sea, and in some cases,
for similar acts ashore.

Cen Gomez and Others Make Appeal to
Cubans.

Havana, Dec. 9.-The Emilio Nunez
Patriotic club, composed of Spaniards
and Cubans, has issued a manifesto to
the Cuban peolpe. 1t says in part:
"Cubans are unnecessarily anxious
with regard to the intentions of the
United States government. The facts
do not warrant their suspicious. Here
tofore the Americans have kept strict
ly to the terms Of the joint resolution
OF Congress and the recent declarations
of Secretary Root bid fair to fulfill the
desires of Cubans, who are now to be
thoroughly united. Even those among
us who were formerly the subjects of a
hostile nation now recognize the JUS
tice Of the claims of Cuba"
The manifesto is signed by Gen. Maxi
mo Gomez, Senior Gonzales, Senior Me-
sonier and other well-known Cubans.

mousse VIII investigate the Sending of
Federal Troops to Occur d'Alenes.
Washington, Dec. O.-Representa-
tive Lentz of Ohio has introduced a
joint resolution reciting the charges
growing out of the presence of United
States troops, under Brigadier- General
Merriam, at the center of mining
troubles in Idaho, and asking for an
investigation by a special committee of
nine members, to be appointed by the
speaker. The resolution says it is a
matter of general information that
United States troops were sent to Idaho
in defiance of and contrary to the fed
eral constitution, at the individual re.
quest of the governor, when no riot or
instruction existed, and without con-
sulting the legislature or the local
sheriff.
1t is asserted that General Merriam
declared martial law and "arbitrarilv
and without warrant of law arrested
hundreds of citizens" and held them
under most brutal and tyrannical con-
ditions.' The arrests, it is CHARGED.
included many members of the Miners
union and the local sheriff.

WOOD TO SUCCEED BROOKE.
VIII be to All Purposes the Civil Governor
of Cuba.

of Cuba.
Washington, Dec. General Leon
ard Wood had a conference with tn.
secretary of war yesterday respecting
his future. While neither of the prin-
cipals had anything to say for publica-
ton as to the conclusions reached, it Is
gathered that General Wood is to be
the next governor OF Cuba, succeeding
General Brooke, who will return to the
United States.
1t is expected the military force in
Cuba can be greatly reduced in the
near future, so that while General
Wood by commanding the troops re-
naming will be a military governor,
tn ere will be so little left OF the mill
tary establishment that his Office will
be much more civil than military in
fact The regulations in force will
enable the department to withdraw
some or perhaps all OF the general Off
GERS now in Cuba.
