with great seas rolling outside the har-
Dor, the telephone and telegraph wires
are kept busy reporting accidents along
the different sections of the coast.
Instructions flash over the wires; spe-
cially constructed boats. fitted with
every necessity, from divers to derricks,
are dispatched with all haste to the

the fatal spot, while the company's pho
toerapher puts his traps together to be
able to provide pictorial reports of the

From rendering assistance to harbor
tugs which have run aground-a task
which occupies only a few hours-the
work ranges to saving great liners or
disabled ships of war, involving opera
tons on gigantic scales, not likely to be
completed within weeks, or even
months.
The oldtime word "wreckers" has to-
day completely lost its original mean
ing and fascination. The wreckers of
romance and history lived by plunder-
ing wrecks. for which they themselves
were responsible as often as not. The
wreckers of today live by an honorable
calling, for the wrecking of a ship now
means the saving of ship and cargo for

the fears expressed IN the hot south
western states. 1t says:
AS matter Of fact. these state
ments regarding Widespread rum of

sary to go back to this time in 1900 to
find corn selling al phenomenal prices

Modern Wrecker..

Altho the work OF destroying derelicts
at sea falls upon government shoulders.
it Is not a little remarkable that the
work of salvage-the work OF raising
wrecks, of rescuing derellcts. when pos
sible, from destruction--is entirely in the
hands of private corporations
1t is an interesting experience to spend
q morning in the offices Of one of the
great salvage or "wrecking" companies,
which have now become SO essential
for the welfare of q maritime nation.
not only because they save the majority
of fine vessels that are driven into posi-
ions Of peril, but because they keep
clear channels in all the worlds ports.

he shaw ID off his mustache and, DOMINIC
policemnn's uniform, boldly promenad-
ed the main streets of the town. He was
of course missed in barracks and knew
that the surrounding country WINS being
secured in the hopes of finding him. On
one occasion his sergeant came up to
him and asked him IL he had seen OF
heard anything of the missing man, and
he OF course replied that he had not, but
he would keep his eyes open! For nlor6
than fortnight he preserved his dis
glise without 1t being penetrated even by
the police themselves and he then calmly
left the town when the hue and cry had
subsidized somewhat. Nevertheless his en-
terprise came to naught, for he was ar
rested in trying to work his passage back
to Ireland
Scarcely less audacious was the ruse
employed by another dissatisfied son OF
Mars, mud i'll this case likewise it proved
futile. He happened to know that GER
tain publican in the town was In anything
but aiiuent circumstances, for he visited
the house regularly, and from remarks
dropped at odd times discovered that the
publican was heavily in debt to Scotch
spirit merchant. One morning as soon as
the publican opened his doors the soldier
arrived. after having first disguised him
self with n heard and wig and donned
civilian attire. With him came friend,
who agreed TO act rs a representative of
the law, and he promptly told the aston
isllcd publican that he had orders to leave
a man in possession unless the sum ow-
ing to the Scotch spirit merchant was
paid TO him there and then. The publican
of course could not pay, so the deserter
was quartercd upon him md lived in his
house and Mt his expense for more than
week before the deception was discovered.
Perhaps the most successful desertcr,
for time, was Willinm Conrad. Through
one of his comrades he heard Of man
whose son had gone to Australia gold
mining and had apparently disappeared,
for nothing more had been heard of him.
though the parent still believed he would
see him again. Conrad therefore hit upon
the ingenious idea OF leaving the army by
stealth and. going TO the man, informing
him that he was the missing son. AS his
knowledge of Australia was considerable
he lost no time in putting his plan into
execution. and the parent, believing in
him despite the supposed alteration in his
appearance. provided him with home
and money gnlore, commodity he con-
fcssed he lacked. But. unfortunately for
him, at the end of is months tho real son
turned up. and what followed can better
be imagined than Observation-Disclosures

Device. of British soldier. to E.-
cape From the Army.

To desert from either the army or the
navy is not the easiest thing in the world,
and even when accomplished the culprit
lives in daily fear OF being recaptured
and sentenced to heavy term of impris-
onment. Therefore the devices employed
by some deserters are us ingenious as
they are exciting. although they cannot
be said to be always crowned with sue
cess. For sheer audacty the case OF an
Irish soldier who deserted in south
coast town some years ago would be hard
to beat. just at that time number OF
assertions had occurred in the neighbor-
hood, and the authorities were therefore
unusually sharp to prevent further Of
lenses OF this nature. But the man in
question was dissatisfied with soldering
and, having number Of friends in the
town who We're disposed to help him and
being possessed OF an unusually large
modicum OF pluck, resolved to delay his
return to civil life no longer.
One morning early he slipped out Of
barracks and made his way to friends

Mowbray, well known newspaper
man and author of THE Making OF a
Country Home" and many other mag
azine stories, was married Saturday
afternoon at o'clock at Old Town,
to Miss Mary Mildred Stapleton of
Chicago.
This wedding was the climax OF a
romance in real life. Some fourteen
years ago Mr.. Stephens was connect
ed With the Western Union Telegraph
company In this city. coming here
from the east. Before leaving Penn.
sylvania, however. he had met and
loved May Stapleton. A corresponds
ence was carried on and the day for
the wedding set, but a misunderstood
ing over a trivial matter caused the
engagement to be broken and their
lives drifted apart. Several years
ago Miss Stapleton. while in Florida
read of the death of Mr.. j. q.
stephens and thinking ii her former
lover, mourned him as dead. Two
weeks ago Mr.. Stephens returned "a

The friend stopped TO converse with
them and introduced Mr. Stephens
One Of the ladies was Miss Stapleton
who has been spending the summe

then Mr.. Stephens called at the Ole

Saturday they were made one.
