A HERO OF THE STEWARDS.
Triumph Of Clear Grit, Cool Judgment
and Quick Action,

On Friday last big boiler, weigh
ing sixty.four tons, was about to be
lowered into the hold Of steamship
at the New York Shipyards. The
hundred-ton crane, SO called because
1t will lift weight of 100 tons as
easily as a college girl lifts a wooden
dumbbell, was swinging its great
arms toward the monster boiler
eighteen feet in circumference.
Perched on the top Of It was a work

ward the crane, and he never saw 1t,
nor did any one else until 1t was with

the giant crane struck him 1t would
crush him as IL would an egg shell.
Twenty feet below was the ground
strewn with jagged pieces Of iron, to
fall on which was instant death. The
workmen below saw his danger and
shouted to him. The man turned
half way round and felt the cranO
coming. 1t was death either way,
and, paralyzed with fear, he collapsed.
At this critical moment when svery
one else had lost his head, one man
was there who knew what to do, and
did 1t. Twenty feet away when the
impending doom over the man was
first seen, in less than two seconds he
cleared the space and stood among
the jagged iron.
Jump for your life! It's your only
chance!" he cried, and he braced
himself to catch the falling man,
while the crowd held its breath. The
two men came together with an i'm
pact so great that both were picked
up senseless. 1t was a case of clear
grit, cool judgment and prompt
action.

LITTLE COINS OF SENTIMENT.
Immense Amount Of 7 treasure That 10
Slowed AWAY.

A little girl just convalescing from
fever had grown tired Of seeing the
assortment of curios that happened to

upon. Finally, after diversions failed
to divert, the tired mother-nurse
brought out little pocketbook which
yielded an old-fashioned three-cent
piece, a two-cent piece, a nickel and
two pennies.

Good Workmanship Needed.

In the days of wooden navies and
brass carronades seamanship was
everything. The best captain was he
who could most skillfully maneuver
to bring the enemy within effective
range of his guns and put his own
ship In position to rake that of his
antagonist. When this had been &C.
complished the battle turned more on
rapidity of fire and weight of metal
than on accuracy of aim. Nowadays
straight shooting is the sine qua non.
To secure the highest possible efl-
cheney in this respect is a matter Of
much greater moment than to add
battleships to our navy that are not
needed and which If poorly manned
would be OF comparatively little ser.
