Deed Of a Hero.

Joe F. Gwinn hands us the follow
ing clipping, which is relative to a
first cousin OF his, who enlisted in
Cumberland county, KY, in Uncle
Sans service in the PHILIPPINES. The
young man was named for Mr.. Gwinn.
and was known as Joe Carnes. The
following clipping is an extract from
a letter from the Philippines to Prof.

you can well be proud of your
boy. They were fording very swift

the water to try TO help the lieuten-

tempt to save another's."

CHICAGO COAL INVESTIGATION.
Special Grand Jury Has Summoned
MANY Witnesses.

CHICAGO, January 15.-On new develop
ments In the coal shortage investigation
the special grand jury has widened the
scope of its authority. Subpoenas were
sent out today to the sheriff of Sangamon
county for Charles A. Starne Of the Virden
Coal Company and the West End Coal
Company Of Springfield; Terrence Casey OF
the Williamsville Coal Company and L. w.
Senseney of the Alton and Auburn Coal
Company at Auburn.
The evidence of the men from Springfield
district it is said, will form the connecting
link in the chain Of evidence showing agree
ments between the operators Of Illinois and
Indiana. Several witnesses summoned for
yesterday were heard today, after which
the grand jury turned it's attention to the
volume of documentary evidence prepared
for 1t.
Business in East Chicago, Ind, was
brought to a standstill by lack of coal, says
the Tribune. The plants Of the Republic
Steel and Iron Company and the Emylewyn
rolling mills have shut down and 5000
men-practically all the workingmen of the
city-are idle.

EXCITEMENT AMONG BETTERs
Gun Drawn in Ring at New Orleans
Causes Stampede.


Angry words, followed closely by tho
glitter Of revolver, caused a wild stam-
pede among the SPECTATORS huddled to-
gether in the betting ring of the Crescent
City track, New Orleans, yesterday after
noon Steve L'Rommedieu, the wellknown
plunger, was the target and Charley Bell
linger, the reputed proprietor of a gam
bling house in Hot Springs. was the pot
hunter.
L'Hommedieu. who arrived there re-
Gently from Hot Springs, has been playing
the races with Indifferent success. His in
ability to gather in large amount by
picking winners and the loss Of several
thousand dollars at Hot Springs nettled
him until his temper was considerably
ruffied.
He was in tbs frame of mind yesterday
when he met Charley Bellinger in the ring,
the man who ran the game where the
plunger lost his money: The sight of Bel
linger caused lin to lose his temper and
he burted out that Bellinger conducted a
brace faro game.
At this declaration Bellinger reached for
his gun and aimed 1t at Il Hommedieu.
Before the weapon could be discharged the
policemen stationed In the ring grabbed Bel
, lnger and pulled the revolver out of his
hand He was then hustled out of the
ring. The stewards will probably fine the
men implicated in the quarrel.
The stewards have refused all privileges
to A. P. Mathieson until he can produce
the horse that ran and won there on De-
cember "a as Hiram Johnson" The latter
is said to be ringer" The horse was
spirited away after he won. Mathieson be-
Meves the horse is located at the Newport
track and is trying to secure the co-opera-
ton of the track officials to find him. Tho
horse is said to be the old geding Nc
Namara.

CUP DEFENDER.
Keel Frames of New Yacht Laid Yes
terday.


The raising of the keel frames Of the mid
ship section of the new yacht ordered as a
prospective cup defender was accomplished
at the Herreshoff's ship yard at Bristol, X.
l., yesterday, and Il is now possible to OBJ
tain some general idea of the form Of the
craft.
While her lines in many respects conform
to those of the Constitution, there will be
less dead rise, less curve at the garboards,
the bilges somewhat harder and consider
ably fatter floor. The departure from the
Constitutions lines is, however. not at all
extreme.
Owing to the stern post not being in posi-
ton. the framing is being worked further
forward than aft, and there are now sew
eral frames out ahead Of the lead keel.
AS in the other cup defenders. more re-
nance is placed in the belt and longitudinal
frames, of which there are fifteen in tha
midship section. The belt frames are six
feet eight inches apart. with intermediate
frames between. AS usual, the connections
are made by T bars, and the plating will
follow the belt frames end for end. On the
whole, the work is progressing favorab,y.
and there appears to be every prospect that
the new boat will be overheard before the
middle Of April.

ner, and after that Sutherland will remove
the rest Of the tower by tearing off the
boards from the top. The large bell which
hangs in the steeple will be lowered by
means of ropes and pulleys
The "1y" said to reporter for The Star
that this makes the ninety-sixth steeple
that he has worked on. either in repairing
or tearing down. He considers the present
job easy. as compared with other feats he
has performed. The greatest danger to De
feared in the work of tearing down the St.
Matthew's tower, he said, is in the decayed
condition of the wood work. which has
made the tower weak and tottering. FL,
thinks he will complete the job In four or
five days.
Sutherland has been "steeplejack" for
about twenty years. He entered the navy
when thirteen years old. and has become
used to work in midair. He has worked
on steeples in all parts Of the country and
has never used scaffoldng to assist him.

An Old-Tme Building.
Church was laid in 1898 by Archbishop Ec-
cleston, and the building was consecrated
in 1912 by the same prelate. 1t is said that
the old bell in the tower of the church was
first tolled as a warning to the people
of the city during the civil war when the
capital was threatened by the confederate
troops.
The funeral of Gen. Philip T. Sheridan
was held from this church, and many other
notable events of historical interest are
connected with it. Since 1895 the congre-
cation has worshiped in a new church
building in Rhode Island avenue and the
old structure IS now used as a Sunday
school house and for early mass. The cross
| and bell will remain the property of the
| church, but the balance of the material in
| the tower will be sold for firewood.
! Rev. Father Thos. s. Lee. the pastor of
/ St. Matthews, said this morning that he
| did not know as yet what disposition would
| be made of the old bell It may be placed
| in the National Museum. The bell was
| made in the early forties by a firm in Troy.
