Terrible Disaster Of
Monorny Lifeboat

While attempting to rescue the crew
of the barge Wadena recently the boat
of the Monomy life saving station, near
Chatham, Mass. was upset, and all but
one Of both crews persisted. Surfman
Seth L. Ellis, the only survivor, tells
the story Of the disaster:
"When all five men were in the boat,
Captain Eldredge sang out to cut the
pa11iter. Surfman Osborn Chase cut
away the rope with an ak.
''In going away from the barge we
shipped small sea. Two of the Portu-
guese passengers then became excited
and jumped up in the boat. l caught
them and forced the two into the bot
tom OF the boat. Then large amount
Of water was shipped. AS it came in
over the side four men, all but Mr..
Mack, captain of the barge, jumped all
over the boat, yelling with fear. This
interfered with our men in rowing, and
moro water was shipped. AS those
crazed fellows rushed toward the for
ward part of the boat it went over.
s'Snall and Nickerson were on the
second CnWarC, h0Ilurlck anu hOSeIS
on the third and Foye and myself on
the fourth.
''The first time we righted her all
hands were all right but as soon as we
got her right side up the Portuguese
clambered in without any idea of what
to do, and as the boat was half full OF
water she rolled right over again. We
all went down again. AS Foye came
up he shouted to the captain, 1 struck
bottom that time, captain We sue
ceeded in again righting her, but she
rolled right over. and when she came
up all of the passengers and Surfman

saw them once fifteen feet away, drift
ing with the tide. but they soon sank.
Captain Eldredge told us not to
waste any more strength in righting
the boat, but to cling on. Rogers, Ken
drick and myself climbed upon the bot
tom, while Captain Eldredge chung to
the rudder brace and said. Come, boys,
help me up We pulled him on once,
but he was Immediately washed off.

J., where he spent three years. He
then accepted call to church at Syr-
acuSe, n. Y. and remained there until
1862 when he accepted a passionate in
Philadelphia. This gave him his first
chance of reaching the people of a
great city. His success was inStanta-
neous, and ne finally received three ST.
multaneous calls from Brooklyn. Chi
cago and San Francisco. Though the
church which had called him to Brook
lyn boosted only seventeen members,
he chose that city, and the result of
his choice is we'll known. Within a
year it was necessary to erect Struc-
ture capable Of holding 5000 people.
Two years later this church was burn
ed to the ground.
An edifice that would seat 5000 was
then built, but was inadequate to ac-
commOdate the thousands that fiocked
to hear the famous preacher. For fif-
teen years the church had wonderful
prosperity, which was rudely broken
by a second fire that laid it in ashes
Undismayed third tabernacle was
built. 1t was completed in 1891, and
it's dedication was great public oc-
casion.
This tabernacle was a grand and
beautiful place Of worship, with a
vast seating capacity and perfect
acoustic properties, but is was not
destined to stand long. On Sunday,
May IS, 1894, shortly after the close
of the morning services, fire broke out
and before it was under control had
left the magnificent building pile
OF smoking runis.
Dr. Talmage for time ceased active
pastoral work and went abroad for a
tour of the world. He preached to
large audiences in Australia, New Yea
land, India and Great Britain and on
his return wrote the story of his trav-
els in a book called 'The Earth Cir
died." which enjoyed wide circula-
ton. He now devoted himself almost
exclusively to his editorial work on
The Christian Herald. his sermons be-
ing syndicated for weekly publication.
In 1895 DR.. Talmage accepted for a
time a pastoral call from the First
Presbyterian church in Washington,
and was soon the most popular minis
ter at the national capital In 1890 he
retiered from active connection with the
Washington church and devoted his
time to editorial work. preaching and
featuring. The passing years served
to increase his fame. and an announce
ment that heS was going to preach al
ways attracted a large audience.
DR.. Talmage was vOluminous writ
er on religious subjects. He was the
author of a numeer of lectures, and
his sermons have been published in
thirty volumes. Among the better
known of his works were ''From

Kent, O., April 14.-Mrs. Emma
Vaughn, aged 49, and her mother, Mrs.
Martha J. Calhoun, aged II, were MUIR
dered at their farm home in Hiram
township in the northeastern part of
Portage county. Family troubles re-
sulting from division of the prop
erty of the late Colonel Vaughn, are
supposed to have inspired the crime
which is charged to William HI.
Vaughn, a stepson of the younger
woman. He has been arrested. but
protests his innocence but feebly.
Two sons of Mrs. Vaughn by for
mer marriage found their mother ~
ing dead OH the floor and covered with
blood She had first been shot in the
head and face and her face had been
crushed in, diSfguring her almost be-
yond recognition. Lying behind the
bedroom door was their aged grand
mother with five bullet wounds in her
head.
There was only one person suspect
ed. and Justice ROselle had Constable
Blake take William Vaughn, a step
son of the youngest of the murdered
women, to Jail. He is bache-
lor 81 years of age, lives a quarter
of mile from the scene. At his home
was found a revolver with an open
box of cartridges on a chair. They
were of old fashion make, purchased
ten years ago, he said. They CORE
spOnded with the bullets found in the
bodies of the murdered women.

Last Rational Words to His Daughter.
He was then suffering from in
f1uenZa and serious catarrhal cOndi-
tons. Since his return to Washington
some time ago he had been quite ill.
Until Thursday, however, fears for his
death were not entertained The last
rational words uttered by DR.. Talmage
were on the day preceding the mar
riage of his daughter, when he said:
"Of course, l know you, Maud" Since
then he had been unconscious. At DR..
Talmages bedside, besides his wife,
were these members of his family:

Tribute TO the American Soldier

devotion and service OF other officers and

helped my loyal friend Wheaton 10 his
honor. and no man Is more free TO acknowl-

With this tribute 10 the American SOL

10 a touching demonstration OF the COM
radeship of barrack and camp life tonight
at a banquet at the Union League Club.
The hero Of FL Caney and Gen. Lloyd
Wheaton, conqueror of the Moros. had met
for the first time since they parted in the
jungles of LuZon and, unabashed by the
presence of the $50 guests, they had shown
the warmth of a soldiers greeting.
General Wheaton had been invited to sit
with the guest of honor at the speakers
table, but mOdesty made him late. General
Chaffee saw him first as he threaded his
way among the tables. He arose, and,
reaching across the table, beckoned him
to approach.
General Wheaton made his way around
the board and General Chaffee fell upon his
neck without further He threw
his arm over the others shoulder and
Rugged him, while General Wheaton
blushed modestly through his beard and
dropped his head TO hide the tears that
coursed down his cheeks. What they said
was drowned by the cheers and salvos OF
the guests, and then General Wheaton sat
down within sight of his former command
ing officer. In his speech General Chaffee
referred often to the loyalty of his former
subordinate, giving him his share i'm the
honors and each time General Wheaton hid
his bronzed face behind his hand and wiped
away furtive tears.
