ICEBERG FOR CRADLE.
Thrilling Adventure of Crew While
Stocking Ship with Ice.


A thrilling story of a vessels en-
counter with an iceberg Is told by
Capt. Chester of the schooner ElwSod.
While the schooner was on q nshing
cruise in the northern waters Captain
Chester sighted an immense iceberg
apparently fastened on a reef known to
exist Just off Hoonia. Its a lucky
findi" thought the captain. as he head
ed the Elwood for the berg, that he
might fill the hold with ice to preserve
the fish he expected to catch. When
the schooner was within a few yards
of the berg the anchor was dropped.
The vessel swung around until she
came alongside the berg. to which she
was made fast with lines. The tide
was at the full; a ~gangplank was
thrown over to a ledge on the Ice, n
the men began breaking off chunks OF
Ice and hosting them aboard. All
went well until evening, when thirty
tons of Ice had been slowed in the
hold. Meanwhile the falling tide had
caused the berg to settle upon the reef
and to tip toward the side opposite the
vessel. The gangplank rose in the air
and had to be made fast to a ledge
nearer the water to keep 1t horizontal.
Capt. Chester suspecting that all was
not going to be well, ordered the crew
to make sail. Before they could man
the halyards the iceberg, with a grind
ing roar, rolled off the reef and started
to turn over. A Jagged spur of Ice.
which had formed the bottom OF the
berg, rose on the ~starboard side of the
vessel and beneath 1t. The ice struck
the keel, and the vessel, lifted out of
the water, rested in an Ice cradle.
Chester ordered his men to get into the
boats and out Of harms way. Cutting
the lines that held the schooner to the
berg, the men pulled to a safe distance
and waited. The anchor held fast, and
the schooner tugged at the chain. The
tide dropped a few more inches, the
iceberg careened still further, and the
Elwood rose higher. This proved the
schooner's ~salvation. The tendency of
the iceberg to roll over and raise the
vessel brought such an enormous strain
upon the anchor chain that something
had to give way. Something did, and
to the Joy of the fishermen it was not
the anchor of the chain. The iceberg
lurched and the schooner was seen to
slide several feet along the crevice in
which 1t rested. There was another
lurch and another slide. Then the YES
sci reached a downward grade, and the
next instant shot off the iceberg and

Meaning of Instantaneous. Death.

~
The instant of death" says the In
dian Lancet, is a vague and indefinite
expression when viewed from the point
Of physiology. An animal or plant
cannot be considered dead until 1t has
reached that period In disintegration
where II is impossible TO revive life.
Some psychologists still further re-
strict the definition to that point In
decay where every cell in the body
OF an animal or plant has ceased to
contain or consist of living proto-
plasm-in other words, each cell must
have lost beyond recall its life powers.
Probably one of the most striking ex-
amples Of instantaneous death was that
Of the person who accidentally fell
into a large vat OF boiling caustic
potash. which at ono consumed the
entire body. leaving only the metallic
plates from the heels of his shoes and
a few buttons from the clothing as re-
mains. Death from electric shocks
also border on the instantaneous pro-
cess. II has been found that living
cells taken from the body can be pre-
served In a normal state for a long
time and then have life processes re-
vived II they are properly treated.

Europe,s Indusfriof Crisis.

The state department at Washington
is advised by its consults at some of
the European trade centers that an
industrial and financial crisis is i'm
pending there, IL indeed it has not ac-
tually begun. From Germany comes
the assertion that "the wave of indus
trial prosperity in Europe, which has
steadily risen since 1895, has taken a
turn and begun to recede;" hat all
signs point to a crisis in industrial
lines before two years have passed, and
that any political disturbance might
bring on the inevitable crash with ex-
treme s~uddenness. In ~veriication of
these discouraging predictions 1t is
pointed out hat house rents and in
dustrial stocks have begun to decline,
that factories are closing and hat the
shipping interests and water material
Industries are making the most OF the
South African and Chinese disturb
ances. German students Of economics
analyze the situation as being the re-
suit Of overproduction.

II the plans Of Thomas w. Lawson
to have Boston represented in the trial
races to pick a defender for the Amer
ica's Cup are successful, and If the Bos-
ton boat is selected for the honor, it
will be Tom of Boston against Tom Of
London; copper against tea; Boston
brains and New England seamanship
against similar British products.
Although he does not say SO in so
many words Mr.. Lawson hints that he
will have the assistance and advice of
that successful veteran Of cup defense
history, General Charles J. Paine, Of
Boston, owner in whole OF in part
of the Puritan, Maylower and Volun-
teer.
The makeup of the crew has not
been settled beyond the skipper, and
Mr.. Lawson hints that notable college
athletes will have places in the crew,
but this may be changed as the pro-
gramme evolves. Mr.. Lawson's desire
to have the yacht sailed by New Eng
ianders, from Watson down, with a
sprinkling of amateurs, is in line with
his desire to make the boat thoroughly
representative of that section of the
country that has led the world in
yachting for years.
There will be no secrecy about the
Boston boat. She will not be built IN
a tightly closed shed and launched IN
"petticoats," as was the Columbia.
Neither will it be given out that she
is to be built by I'M firm, while an
other is secretly at work upon her.
The public will be at liberty to inspect
her at all stages, and invitations Will
be issued to the members of the syn
dictate controlling the New York boat
and to the Herreshoffs to attend the
launching of the Boston yacht.
From now on all those connected
with the building of the boat will

offered by Mr.. Lawson himself, in COM
petition in q Boston flower show. Then
various efforts were made to capture
1t. An offer of 5000 for a stock plant
was made by Higginbotham, of Chi
cago. Then came an offer Of $751; 900
from a New York firm for n half
the product of the greenhouse at which
it was produced. Mr.. Lawson raised
Mr.. Higginbotham's offer by 1000. or
$1,000 for q single plant. to be given
to the city of Boston for propagation
by the city forester, provided its name
be not changed and the right to prop
agate it be given to no one else. Then,
the competition waxing warm, he made
his offer of $50. 900 for the whole out
put or 5000 plants. 1t was the larg-
est price eve paid any variety CT
marketable flower.
Mr.. Lawson is said to be willing to
pay as e%xtravagant a price for a win
ming yacht.
