STORY OF BATTLE
WITH ICY WATERS
Thrilling Exp ,rience Of Lake
Stca mer's Crew - Almost
Perished from Exposure
Before Rescued.

Sault Sainte Marie. Dec. 8. - Like
mec risen from the dead the crew OF
the ill-fated steamer Charles Hebard.
wrecked at Point Mamainse Sunday,
reached Sault Sainte Marie on the tug
General yesterday. They brought with
them a thrilling story of their long
battle with the icy waters of Lake
Superior, fight in which death SEEM
ed for a long time to hold the vic
tory.
After losing three barges with which
she started from West Superior, the
Hebard tried to hold her course for
Whitefish Point to seek shelter. but
was unable to make the harbor. At
o'clock Sunday morning the lookout
discovered that the vessel was among
the breakers and few minutes later
she struck the rocks, bow on.
Within a minute from the time the
vessel struck she had swung broadside
to the shore and began to pound to
pieces. The boats were frozen to the
rigging, but the mates finally reached
the shore in small fat bottomed boa,
that lay on the bottom of the steamer.
They carried line from the wreck
and by rigging stronger tackle the re-
mairder OF the crew we're rescued.
All members of the crew were near
ly dead from exposure and 1t is believ-
ed that the Hebard and her tows will
be total wrecks.

LIFE SAVED BY BEAR.
Woman Lost in Woods Strangely
Aroused to Consciousness.

Mrs. Mary Button, aged eighty-two
years, who was lost in the Black for
est for five weeks and found a few
days ago more dead than alive, says a
dispatch from Cross Forks, Pa, to the
Philadelphia Ledger, is just regaining
consciousness. and the story that she
tells Of her wanderings through the
mountainous country, where rattle
snakes and bears are plentiful, is
enough to make ones blood run cold
She says that she lived on berries
and tender shoots and drank water
from the mountain streams. She was
so weak at one time that she could not
walk to the stream, and while she was
dragging herself over the ground she
crawled into a nest Of rattlesnakes
and had a desperate fight with them.
After this she became unconscious
and claims to have remained in that
state for about two weeks. She was
brought to life, she says, by bear
Kicking her face, and when she moved
her hands the bear ran away. Shortly
afterward she was discovered by gin
seng diggers.

FAITH IN DERRICK.
Neighbors of Attic Explorer Have
Confidence in Him.

The citizens Of Washington, N. j.,
united in giving DR.. S. Dedrick, the
physician of the Peary expedition, IA
vote of confidence and a rousing re-
ception, says the New York Journal.
Three thousand people gathered at
the Lackawanna station upon his ar
rival at his former home. and as the
doctor stepped from the train he was
cheered.
A brass band struck up the familiar
strains of "Auld Lang Syne." The
members of the common council and
the mayor were present, as was also
the Washington fire department, Of
which DR.. Dedrick Is a member.
The procession. which moved at once
to the home of James l.. Boyd, who is
Mrs Dedrick's father, was three blocks
long and was greeted on every side by
crowds of citizens, who shouted greet
ings.
At Mr. Boyd's home DR.. Dedrick was
met at the door by his aged mother,
who threw her arms about his neck,
and mother and son wept for joy. 1t
was the first time she had seen her son
IN more than four years, during one Of
which she had not known whether he
was dead or alive.
The party took supper at the Boyd
home and later went to the Washing
ton Opera House, where over 1900 old
friends shook the doctors hand.

After leaving the expedition Ded-
rick lived with the natives, about forty
miles distant from Peary's camp,
which was just across Smith sound, at
Cape Sabine. That winter he made
his way over the ice to Pearys head
quarters and offered his services,
which Lieutenant Peary declined, and

Lieutenant Peary and offered to buy
some provisions, and Peary refused to
accommodate him. l can easily under
stand that action by Lieutenant Peary,
for he had his plans made for the dash
for the pole, and can see how it was
that he did not have an ounce of food
to spare.

HEAVY RAINS IN TEXAS.
Cotton Beat Into the Ground,
and Bridges Washed Away.

There has been a terrific rainfall all
over the whole of the south and por-
ton of east Texas which has done
great damage to open cotton, washed
away innumerable small and many big
bridges, drowned cattle and caused
other destruction. The small streams
are reported out of the banks in every
direction and the railroads have suf-
fered heavy damage in their tracks
and bridges.
At Kennedy it is estimated that 10
inches of water fell. Many people were
compelled to remove from their
homes.
At Rancho, a 60-foot steel bridge
was wrecked. by the flood and carried
half mile down the stream. Several
houses were washed away, but their
inhabitants got out safely.
A great number of cattle and horses
were caught in. the bottoms at various
points and were drowned.
The loss of cotton cannot even be es-
timated, because of the large area al
fected. Picking had been in progress
for some days but all that was not re-
moved from the bOlls is total loss,
being beaten into the ground. The
rain has thoroughly relieved the long
existing drought in the cattle country
along the lower coast.

O@~A
North After Leaving Peary-OGend
ed at Being Relieved of Command
of the Natives.
DR.. Frederick A. Cook of Brooklyn
speaking in behalf Of DR.. Thomas l.
Dedrick, gives the following details OF
the latter's various misunderstanding
with Lieutenant Peary, the arctic ex-
plorer:
1.-THE Peary arctic expedition consist
ed of three men-Lieutenant Peary'
DIR. Dedrick and Matt Henson, the cor
lored man, who has been with the lieu
tenant for a long time. OF course, as
matters were, there could be no such
thing as a lieutenant commander, al
though it was Peary's original lnten-
ttion to place DR.. Dedrick i'll charge OF
the natives. Later Lieutenant Peary
found that he could assume charge OF
the natives himself, and after that al
different times he transferred that du-
~ to Henson. Out of that grew the va
rious differences between the explorer
and Dr. Dedrick which finally led to
the resignation of the latter.
What may be termed the real trou-
BILE developed after the acceptance of
tDedrick's resignation by Lieutenant
Peary. Several days after that event
DIR. Dedrick, through a sense of duty,
came to the conclusion that it was his
duty to remain in the arctic with the
Eexpedition. He reasoned also that to
return TO civilization and leave Peary
alone In the north without medical aid
would place him in an unenViable posi-
ton before the public.
Just prior to the departure of the
Eric for home DR.. Dedrick refused to
go on board the vessel, and Lieutenant
iPeary asked Mr. Wyckoff and myself
to 90 ashore to persuade the doctor to
accompany US home. We agreed, and
for four long hours. with cold arctic
wind playing UP and down our backs,
we tried to get the doctor to return.
We told Dedrick that we did not see
any special reason for him to stay up
there, since the acceptance of his resig-
nation made it perfectly honorable for
did not see why he should remain in
that desolate country among the ma
tives, living on raw meat and wearing
such garb as is worn by the Eskimos.
We advanced all kinds of arguments,
but it was no use. and he could not be
shaken in his determine lion to remain
behind. Dedrick thought it would not
be right to leave Peary.
I'VE at last gave up the attempt to
persuade him to come home and con-
cluded that there was something
wrong with his judgment. OF course
DIR. Dedrick is sane, and the course he
pursued was simply his idea of justice
and good faith.
when we offered Dedrick food and
clothes from the Eric. of which we
had an ample supply, he refused to
take a thing, as he explained he did
not think it would be right to live 9th
.erwise than did the natives with whom
he was going to spend his time.
FINALLY DR.. DERRICK consented to
come on board the Eric and talk the
matter over again. provided we would
give him his liberty if he should stick
TO his determination to stay behind.
AFTER our return to the Eric Lieutenant
Peary said to let Dedrick talk the
anatter over with Mr. Bridgman. Final
