flames above the stream increased. At
last, after more than superhuman efforts,
he rounded the bend in the river, and a
scene burst on his view such as he had
never before witnessed. There not more
than half mile away was the boat. its
bow stuck fast in the muddy bank. the
forward part Of the vessel a mass of flame.
while the stern was crowded with people
continually tumbIing off into the water.
Some swan around the boat to the shore,
but many were drowning.
With the hope of rescuing some one.
he pulled toward the burning vessel with
all his might. The shrieking, cursing. i'm
plorins and drowning cries grew nearer at
every stroke of the oar. and at last he
saw in the morning light on the surface
Of the water the white face Of man,
the blood trickling from wound on his
head. Frank stopped over and seized the
insensible mans long. black hair, as he
was sinking beneath the wave, and after
many desperate efforts dragged him into
his skilf. The boat had ,Iriftcd a consid-
erable distance down the stream, before
Frank could get him ashore.
He observed that the insensible man
held tightly clutched in his hand a large
yellow envelope which seemed to contain
legal documents. He landed the insensi-
bile being. and giving him into the hands
OF two persons on shore to resuscitate
pulled back to the rescue Of others.
Better. far better, would it have been
for Frank Vernon had he let the hateful
white face sink beneath the turbulent
waves of the Father Of Waters.

their enthusiasm was contagious and in.

POLITICAL NOTES.
What Leaders and Others Say
and Do.

E1-Speaker Henderson writes to the
Iowa Committee that his business engage
ments in New York will prevent nbso-
lutely his making any speeches in the
State during the campaign. but hopes that
Iowa will give its customary large Re
publican majority. He says he is thor
oughly in accord with the position of the
Iowa Republicans.
"Uncle Horace" Boies has issued a
trumpet call to the Iowa farmers to vote
against Republicans on the tariff issue.
He is still for free trade or for tariff for
revenue only. and thinks this is an issue
upon which Democracy can win.
The President is deeply interested in
the political situation in Maryland, and
is trying to bring about such harmony as

with Ex-GOv. Lowndes, EX-Postmaster
Gen. Gary, and Representative Wachter.
Other prominent Maryianders have called
and consulted with him. but it is under
stood that Senator McComas has not been
present, and this is considered rather sig
nifcant. Some interpret it that Nc
Comas is going to be laid on the shelf and
Ex-Gov. Lowndes to wear the toga. 9th
ers say that it means that if the Sena-
torial race is free for all it will infuse
healthy spirit into the campaign. and
bring out some men who are now disposed
to suik because of McComaS's aScendency.
and the President merely intends that i;
McComas shows the greatest strength he
shall have the seat.
The McKisson faction Of Cleveland
which has been holly opposed to Senator
Hanna, has made up with him and will
join heartily in the campaign.
Some active MiSsonrians are contending

1t is thought that the Northern Demo-
Gratis are willing to back any good man

Gratis may get control of the Legisia ture

The Republicans have nominated for
Governor Col. Samuel p Colt, of Bristol,
President of the Rubber Trust, and
very rich man, but popular with the
laboring classes. For Lieutenant-Gov-
ernor they have nominated Col. George

who has filed several offices acceptably.
Gov. Garvin had majority of 1850
year ago, but he has lost some standing
since by his airing in the press the yenal-

given in the auditorium Of the Y. M. c..

the afternoon lecture at 2:30 and the eve

found equally interesting to adults and
children. The children, Of course, can't
help liking animal and Indian lectures.
Most "grown-ups" have a similar incli-
nation, but as sportsmen, naturalists, low
ers of wild life, photographers, artists,
lovers Of literature, lovers Of good speak
ing. teachers, parents, the Seton lectures
have an especial appeal to them.
'Some Recent Adventures Of My Ami

in the afternoon, with an abundance OF

"'The Indians as + Know Them will
be the topic of the evening lecture. This

BON TON BURLESQUERS AT THE

Various characters made famous by the
comic supplements of the Sunday news
paper play an important part in the skit
with which the Bon Ton burlesquers open
their performance at the Dewey theater

retains its humor after transportation to
