Mr.. Mutt, store keeper. lost his
life after a display of uncommon hero
ism When the storm struck the CITY
he hitched up a one-hOrse cart and
started out to rescue his neighbors
Carload after CARLOAD he carried in
safety to a fire company house On
three occasions the CARLOAD of human
beings, some half dead, others crazed
with fright was carried for blocks by
the raging current but he landed all
of them safely, even to his last load
when he met his death AS he attempt
ed to pass into the building on his
last trip, the fire house succumbed to
the wind and collapsed. Some of the
wreckage struck Mutt, and he was
mortally injured.
The official records of the United
States weather bureau give some valu-
able additional information about the
storm. Unfortunately the recording in

corded a two minute blow at the rate
of 100 miles an hour and was then de-
mOlished by the hurricane, which con-
tinued TO increase in violence. While
the exact velocity of the wind was not
recorded after the destruction of the
instruments, the weather bureau re-
ports estimate the maximum velocity
at between 10 and 100 miles an hour.
1t did not maintain this terrible rate
for any length of time, perhaps, for
half a minute. but il was sufficient to
wreck anything that met the fun force

A journal of the local office of the
weather bureau contains a report of an
apparent tidal wave of four feet which
swept in from the gulf between the
hours of and s y. m At that time

added, with mild insistence.

"But think OF the kind mine is, 4"

he pulled out a dingy looking slip
of paper, and read

the editor "rhe most unlimited
poetic license will not permit that

What a Great Man Said.

The Hon. John wanamaker, known as the
Merchant Prince Of America. is prcsi-
dent of the Pennsylvania State sun
day-sehool Association. In his last an.
nual address he made the following state
ment which ought to be heralded from one
end Of the land to the other:
"rhe Sunday-school began in the
eighteenth century, and slowly developed,
improved and enlarged. indeed almost all
its growth has been in the nineteenth
century. make bold TO declare that the
noblest development, of this closing century
is that of the Sunday-sehool in its many
various departments, buildings and literature.
because of the touch il has had upon the
civilization of the country as a mother Of
churches and its care for her children. This
century is the only Sunday school century
that the world has ever had. From small
and imperfect organization, step by step
through township, county and State orgaui-
zations, and a splendid International organi-
zation, aud by means of county conventions,
institutes, house-to-house visitation, summer
assemblies, graded Sunday-schools, and
Bible Union work, and other agencies, from
the very few who have come in the first
years under the Influence of the Sunday
school to the twenty-five millions Of youths
and adults, at least, who are to-day study
ing the International lessons in England and
America and the wide world over. believe
that we have been preparing the world by
all these previous years aud 10y the prepare
ton Of this century for the greatest OF all
centuries, the one upon which we now
enter
