STRANDED FOUR DAYS Young Canadian Robinson Crusoes.

A couple of young Canadians had an accident to their canoe and were left upon a small uninhabited island for four days before help came, during which time they had nothing to eat but couple of packages of Grape Nuts.
 In telling the story one of them says: "There was quite q party of us, and we prepared to spend q jolly time hunting in Muskoka- i provisioned the party and among other supplies laid in a stock of Grape-Nu food of which am very fond.
 One day we left camp to paddle to the nearest steamer landing F miles away. Just as we pushed off, one of our companions threw into the canoe two packages of GrapeNuts and can of condensed milk, saying: Leave these at Nerne's with our compliments, they were wishing they had some yesterday. We had gone about half the distance when it began to blow, the lake becom- ing very rough, so we turned our frail boat toward a small island and pad dled with all our might to gain this shelter. Heavy rain began to fall and we drove the boat ashore with more haste than caution and in doing so struck a sunken log and tore q large hole in the light canoe. We scrambled ashore and hauled the boat up after us and nice plight We were in.
 We were on a small island of about q quarter Of an acre. and out of the track of steamers: a hole a foot long in our boat with neither tools nor mater ials to repair it; no shelter except some big trees and our canoe and no food except the Grape Nuts and milk.
 For four long dreary days we waited and hoped for help and finally our friends missed us and organized a search party and found us on the bare little island.
 As we had no fishing tackle We could not fish. and not having a fire We could not cook. But we had three meals a day on Grape-Nuts and condensed milk and when rescued We were none the worse for our experience. Thanks to thes Grape Nuts on which we had lived and kept in good health for four days.
 After this adventure I never drive a canoe to shore in a hurry and l never go on a hunting trip without supply of the ready cooked, ready to eat and always acceptable food Grape Nuts.

 around. The fourth, fifth and sixth
 coaches left the track but only the front end of the fourth car went owe. the bank. The seventh coach is the
 only one that did not leave the rails. Nearly everyone in the first coach was injured, most of them having
 their legs or arms broken. Those who
 escaped injury started to assist the in- jured and to pull them from the wreck Several doctors were on the train and within a short time they were binding | wounds or setting broken limbs. A | messenger hurried to Chehalis with the

As Lord Salisbury Turned
 to His Daughter
He Is Succeeded by Lord Cranborne and a Vacancy Is Created in the Order of the Garter.

London, Aug 22.-Lord Salisbury died peacefully at sos o'clock tonight. During the past fortyeight hours the end was seen to be inevitable, the great frame of England's ex-premier being sustained only by the contsant use of oxygen. Even the administra- tion of oxygen failed oi effect as the shadows had crept up from the valley and enshrouded the dull red walls Of Hatfield House, the distinguished statesman, making the last effort of his life. turned slightly towards his favor ite daughter, Lady Gwendolyn Cecil, who was llneeling beside him, and then quietly breathed his last.
 Lord Edward Cecil had baen warned early this afternoon by telegraph that the end was near. All the other mem bers of his lordship's family had gathered at the bedside. Dr Douglas Powell, who had attended Lord Sails bury, was notified by telegraph this morning that it was useless for him tC come and he was therefore absent at the end Viscount Cranborne, who now assumes the title of Marquis of
 
 Edward and Queen Alexandria, the Prince and Princess of Wa es and others including Lord Edward Cecil, the sol dier son of Lord Salisbury, who is now in Egypt, ard was the only child of the marquis absent from the death bed.
 Soon messages Of condolence began coming in, and the little telegraph of flee at Hatfield was swamped with an unpredecented business. The death of Lord Salisbury occurred on the fittieth | anniversary of his entry into public [ life as member of the house of com mons for Stanford
 The elevation of Lord Cranborne to the house of lords created q vacancy in the Rochester district and probably will entail the selection of a new un- der secretary of foreign affairs The eX-premier though retired from political lie, was an important fig ure in many public ways. He was warden of the cinque ports, high stew ard of Westminster and chancellor of Oxford University. His death places an order of Knight of the Garter at the disposal of King Edward.

SIR THOMAS SMILES.

Sandy Hook, Aug. 22.-The Erin steamed into her haven at Sandy Hook after the race with the American flag at her mast and another at her bow, a tribute to the winner. Sir Thomas Lip- ton Saiu with a smile:
 We were beaten fairly and square ly. It was splendid weather and the Shamrock dId not do as well as I had expected she would in the race to wind ward and return. I appreciate the splendid manner in which my boat was handled. The Reliance is wonderful yacht. My confidence in the Shamrock however, is not shaken. and I hope she will yet make a much better showing.

THE START.

Both got away on the starboard tack, carrying their lower sails and club topsailS and the Reliance q baby jib topsail. What followed was the prettiest, closest and most hard-fought fifteen miles thresh to windward that has been witnessed in these historic waters for many a day. For nearly half ali hour they held on one tack and during all that time the most acute ob- server could not detect that their rela- tive positions had varied more than half the length of either of them. Sham rock III held the lead under the lee bow of the Reliance, but could not add an inch to it. Neither could the Re liance, although in the weather posi- tion. get past the leader
 Just about an hour after the start when the yachts had covered nearly half the distance to the outer mark, opportunity was offered to note how the contest really was The Reliance and Shamrock III were approaching each other, with the former on the starboard tack and having the right of way. AS they necked one another it was a question which was leading. The Shamrock was forced to go about to avoid a collision. One hours work hdd gwen neither the aQV1nCaSe- They held that tack for twenty minutes. The Shamrock III suddenly went about, and the Reliance followed suit, only to see the Shamrock return to her former course. Plainly it was Captain Wringe's trick to shake off the De- fender. which must have been threat ening to blanket the British boat As soon as Shamrock III got clear of the Reliance she laid a parallel course.
 When both yachts were about a quar- ter of a mile apart and mile and a half from the turning mark, the Reli- ance was ahead but considerably to lee ward of the Shamrock. They were southwest of the mark and heading to- ward the Jersey coast when the wind suddenly shifted from south-southwest to south by west, three points. This placed the Reliance in the windward position. It was clear luck and gave the defender a distinct advantage. The Shamrock III held on her course to- ward the Jersey shore, and the Reli- ance crossed her bow 9 quarter of a mile to the windward of her. Both boats then made short hitches to the turning mark, and when the Reliance rounded it three minutes and twenty seconds in advance of the challenger the whistles of the fleet acknowledged her luck and her lead.

QUESTION OF A CABLE.

London. Aug. 22.-Referring to the statement made by the Ccnstantinople correspondent Of the London Times, that besides demanding the execution of reforms in Macedonia, Russia also demands the concession of the Black Sea cable, now held by the Eastern Telegraph company. British concern, the ofhclals Of that company explain that the concession was granted by Russia, who reserved the right to take over the cable at the end of a certain period. Consequently they add that the alleged demand on Turkey is un- necessary. The company expects that Russia will grant compensation for taking over the cable

During all of the fifteen-mile run which the yachts covered al a twelve knot clip the Reliance steadily and per sistently crawled away from the now hopelessly beaten challenger.

 The Reliance was three-quarters of a mile away when the Shamrock III turned the mark and broke out her balloon jib topsail. The upper part of it refused to break out and still hung in stopes, but only for a few minutes. As with the Reliance. her spinnaker, too, swung across her jib topsail stay and hung empty of wind for minute or more. When it was sheeted back into position there was a good-sized rip in the edge of it near her mast head, and during all the run home it bellied out loosely as though Captain Wringe would not give it a good full for fear that he might lose it alto gether.

THEN CHALLENGER FAILED
Sir Thomas Pleased With the nan- asement of His Boat and lie Con- tends That the Victory Is Not Not Won Until He Has Finally Been Beaten.

 There were no accidents and there was no impartiality of breezes. The challenger was shown t0 be the slower boat unless it may be charged that her defeat was caused by unskillful man. agement.
 Sir Thomas Lipton. however, said to night that she could not have been more skillfully handled.
 The Shamrock will be remeasured to- morrow

RELIANCE AT THE TURN.

Once around the mark the Reliance broke out her balloon jib topsail, swung out her spinnaker pole and broke out her spinnaker for a run dead before the wind to the finish line. Whether her spinnaker sheet parted or slipped from it's fastening or the boom lifted was not clear, but the pole swung out ahead of her high into the air, and the big sail hung in loose folds across her jib topsail stay. For minute 1t looked as though she were in serious difficulty. The pole was hauled aft to it's proper

THE CAUSE.

Tacoma, Wash. Aug. 22-Superin- tendent Abe, of the Northern Pacific, now at the scene of the excursion train wreck near Chehalis, says as far as he can find out at this time the acci- dent was due to the burning of the fireboX of the locomotive, followed by the dropping of a crown sheet.
