DARING RESCUE
FROM ANGRY SEA
Grew Of the Race Point Life Saving
Station Does Gallant
Work.
Brooches Buoy Is Used to Rescue
Sailors from Schooner,
Dawson City.

New York Sun Special Service.
Highland Light, Mass, Oct. 20
Fourteen members of the crew Of the
fishing schooner Dawson City, which
was driven ashore in q northeast gale
yesterday, were rescued by the crew
of the Race Point life saving station
in one of the most spectacular per-
fOrmances ever seen on this coast.
The Dawson City with Captain O'Neil
and a crew of eighteen men, left
Gloucester, Saturday afternoon. The
heavy gale forced the schooner ashore
shortly after midnight.
Not daring to attempt a landing
thru the surf, Captain O'Neil sent four
men in a dory seaward around Race
Point to Provincetown, where they
/ arrived after a nights trying expert
ence. In the meantime the schooner
was sighted by the life savers Of the
Race Point station. The surf boat
was launched thru a sea that threat
/ ened to overturn it and gained the
side of the stranded vessel. ar
! Nine men sprang from it's decksSto
the surf boat as a boiling sea rolled
over the gunwale. The men chung on
for their lives, while the life savers
pulled steadily at the oars. Only by
the utmost caution was a landing
made. ~ s H..
Again the lifeboat was headed thru
the surf, but before the boat had
drawn away from the strong under
! tow a great sea filled it. Captain
Fisher by a great effort succeeded in
! bringing the surf boats head back to
the wind, but then a giant wave larger
than the other completely swamped
! the boat. It struck the steering oa1
from the captains grasp and hurled
him headlong into the sea. Men, boat
and oars were thrown on to the beach
! in a mass. s...1s. . .e,g-.s..-.>'
The mortar and breaches h11Ov an.
paratus of the Massachusetts Humane
society happened to be located nearby
This was quickly set up and line
sent over the vessel. The remainder
of the crew, five in number, were
brought ashore by this means.

the machine to take Mrs. Davis for
spin, he finds that the Wizard and
Soup have it all apart getting point

that so far they have always put the

good shape for ordinary family use. In
fact, the family was out riding the
other day when the machinery broke
down. Luckily the Wizard was along.
Mr.. Davis knows very little about his
car. The young man took Off his
coat and went to work. 1t took him
an hour, but he finally remedied the
trouble and the machine ran home In
good shape. '
The Wizard and his friend Soup are
now figuring on turning the Ark,
which is a sidewheeler, into a twin
screw or propeller boat, and if they
succeed in doing this they purpose to
take a long trip down the Passa1c

LIT Is said if reports of surveying par
ties now in the field are satisfactory, the

inlet is c. arm of the Gulf of Georgia,
which separates Vancouver island from
the British Columbia main land, is very
! narrow and lies between precipitous
mountain shores, rising 900 to 5000 feet.
Its waters are hundreds of fathoms deep
