PERCHED ON A CLIFF
Becker Would Have Fallen Into the
Pacific Had He Moved.
WAVES RUNNING HIGH BELOW
Aberdeen, Wash, Merchant Caught
by the Tide In Tunnel
Under the Rocks.
Special to The Journal

Special to The journal.
Tacoma, Wash.,1 May 21-John, Becker,
a merchant of Aberdeen spent all of one
night and part of the next day perched
on a narrow ledge of a cliff overhanging
the Pacific ocean, unable to move for fear
ming high below HIM 3sS4
Becker was one of several men who had
been up to the Queets country and, return
ing, they took the route along the beach
down through the Quonault reservation,
above North Beach. ustSto the north of
the cliffs is a long tunnel 5sworn und Ter the
rocks and this short cut is usually taken.
When Becker reached the entrance to
the tunnel he noticed that the tide was
coming in, and before he reached the exit
the water was up$to his waist When he
came out on the sbeach$$the surf was break
ing heavily along the foot of the cliffs.
To go back again was impossible, and
Becker started to Climb the face Of the
cliff. With his pocket>knife he, dug holes
for his hands and feet, and finally sue
ceeded in getting out of. the reach OF
the waves. He found a cleft In the rock
large enough for him to stand upon
Night came on and his companions, who
had gone on ahead, started back to, find
some trace of him. 1t was then almost
dark, but the men procured ropes and
assembled to the top of the cliffs. Every
effort was made to get a rope to him, but
and the men were; compelled to abandon
the attempt.
With the rising of the sun the tide COM
menced to ebb, and Becker started down.
It, was even harder to descend than. it had
been to climb the wall the night before.
but he finally reached the bottom, so ex-
hausted that he fell helpless on the shore.

Some Points in His FavOr--COntest

Some Points in His FavOr--Contest
for S. d. Railway Board.
Special to The Journal.
Langford, S. D., May 21.-The candidacy
Of Senator Williams of this county for
railroad commissioner is gaining strength
as the time for the state convention ap-
proaches. 1t is but few weeks since he
entered the race and sentiment through
out the state is rapidly crystalizing In his
favor Mr.. Smith from Hand county, who
is acknowledged to be his strongest OPP
ponent, halls from county that has been
populist for years and is likely to remain
so. 1t is also the home OF the present
incumbent who has held the position for
six years. While Mr.. Smith, personally,
is unobjectionable, the above facts Will
have strong bearing on the situation.
Marshall county is on the north end of
the district and has had no recognition
on the state ticket for six years. The
other two commissioners live in the south
ern part of the state, leaving the north
end practically without representation on
the board, and so the logic of location and
fairness in the geographical distribution
of candidates is certainly very much in
favor Of Mr.. Williams and Marshall
county.
Mr.. Williams has served Marshall and
Day counties as state senator for three
terms and always with credit to himself
and entire satisfaction to his constituents.
He is faithful to his duties and loyal to
his convictions. During the last session
Of the legislature he was the only senator
during the entire session. If elected com
missioner he will give the state the same
faithful service as he did when serving as
senator.

BALL BEARING HEADLIGHT
of Iowa Men Will Illumi

Invention of Iowa Men Will lllum1-

Special to The Journal. "
Des Moines, Iowa, May PA headlight
for locomotives that will light the track
around a curve instead of shooting the
flash out into the cornfield is the invention
of Herman Reich and o. M. Coate1.of this
city, swho have been notified a patent will
be allowed. .s&sts@aI s5S#sssSs
! The device is an automatic movable
headlig ht that can be used on any of the
present style of locomotives. The idea is
that the light will follow the track around
curves, showing the rails the customary
400 feet ahead. 5s.5.-=:
Z A portion of the mechanism is two
plates operating on ball and roller bear
ings,s on which the headlight proper is
placed. The mechanical attachment is
such that a rod extends down through the
smoke end of the boiler to point where
other connections are made with the truck
beam. The device has been successfully
tried and railroad men say it will be a
great improvement over fixed headlights.

STRANGLED TO DEATH
Men in the Tennessee Coal Disas ste
Lived for Some Hours.

Men in the Tennessee Coal Disaster
Lived for Some Hours.
Knoxville, Tenn, May 21.-The latest
estimates as to loss Of life in the Fra
terville coal mine disaster at Coal Creek
is 226 including contract miners, day la
borers and boy helpers. The last find re-
ported was that OF thirteen bodies in an
entry and with these thirteen all of whom
were dead were found six letters written
by five men before life became extinct
One of these letters gave the time of day
it was written at 2:30 o'clock Monday aft
ernoon, thus indicating that these and
perhaps other entombed men lived many.
hours after the terrible explosion, which
occurred Monday morning at 1880 o'clock.
The letters gave a suggestion of the suf-
fering that was undergone, indicating that
the men were gradually being strangled
to death by the foul air that was enter
ing the mine and gaseous air that was fill
ing the mine.
One piteously read: My God for an
other breath"
The letters in the main were directions
to families as to what dispositions should
be made of the writer's bodies and bust
ness affairs and instructions as to rails
ing the families. One unfortunate who
leaves neither father, mother, brother or
sisters. addressed his letter: ITO Every
body" and pleaded that they change their
way of living.
President John Mitchell OF the mine
workers of America has sent 500 for the
relief fund and Mr.. Howe to-day an
nounced that the mine workers of Ameri-
ca would at once expend 81 900 for the
needy families of its members who died in
the mine.
Mrs. George Atkins, wife of the mine
foreman who was killed in the disaster,
has completely lost her mind
