In a Hurricane at Sea.

Miss Lucia Z. Wood, who sailed from
New York IN the early part OF November
for Curacao, was caught in frightful
hurricane in the gull stream about !
o'clock Sunday morning, November 10
and for thirty hours the steamer
Caracas could do nothing but drift with
her nose to the wind. Miss Wood
travelling companion, Elias II. Cheney
senior editor OF the Granite State Free
Press, published at Lebanon, \. H.. gave
his paper a somewhat lengthy account Of
their experiences, from which the follow
ing particulars are taken:-
II seems that a few minutes before sail
! ing the captain had a special notice that
storm was in his track. but the he'd II
| liners carry the United States mails and
/ a not DELAY for trifies. The course wa'
accordingly set south about IL or rs de-
grees for san Juan, Porto Rico, 1855 SEES
miles. The weather slowly thickened ano
soon a heavy gale from the southeast wa'
piling up great waves, every seventh one
bigger than any that preceded It.
Every breaker was forcing little water
through the door cracks, and 1t was
splashing across the staterooms as the
boat rolled, while there was such terrihC
wind that only a strong man could stand
up against ii. The captain ordered all
the siaterooms cleared and the occupants
had TO repair to the saloon or the dining
room below. OCCASIONALLY the Caracas
would mount a huge wave, poke her prov
down into a deep valley, while her stern
wheel and all, mounted high in air; then
a. the balance shifted, down she would
come with thump that made her culver
in every Joint and caused the land lubbers
TO think she had surely struck a rock.
The crisis was reached sometime IN the
night, the barometer going down to $50,
and then the storm slowly abateo. Day
light showed that four staterooms had
been stove in and the heavy outside ooors
smashed to kindling wood. A lew more
blows from such a sea and all the state
rooms would have gone overheard with
their contents, and the passengers were
ont of them none too soon. A small CABIN
forward was completely riddledi the
bridge rested on il and was nearly lifted
from its moorings; great cracks were mace
in the woodwork all around, and canvas
the strongest possible, was torn IN many
places. One Of the boats on the uppe.
deck was stove to pieces by the force OF
waves that broke clear over the snip.
Miss Wood proved an excellent sailor
and was about the last of the ladies TO give
I'M. As she was crossing the tropie q
Cancer for the first time, she was mueh
mortified at failing to see it.
The object OF her journey to curacao
was to fill an engagement made IN rev
York with Gov. DE Jany van neek en
DanK OF that country to act as American
goyerness to his four children, ranging
from two to seven years OF age. 10 TINS
nosition she had been recommended by
Mr.. Cheney, under whose escort she traN-
eled. Il Is the governors plan 10 nave an
American governess three years, Gerhlsh :
three and a French three more, with the
expectation that his family will be able 70

Hon. Champ Clark in Randolph.

Hon. Champ Clark, congressman from
Missouri, will be in Randolph Wednesday
evening, December 2s, as the fourth at
traction in the entertainment course. His
subject will be picturesque Public Men,
and those who miss his lecture will, II is
safe 10 say, miss much.
He is called the first man OF letters in
Congress and one of its most formidable
debaters. His speeches have been trans
lated into French and are very popular in
Paris, while on the platform his person.
atty, brilliant wit and sound utterances
make him a powerful orator with a
stronger hold upon audiences than hardly
any other speaker in the country at the
present time.
Hon. Joseph W. Bailey of Texas in a
book, entitled "Five Famous Missou-
rians," says OF him There may be Mis-
sourians about whom the public press
points more frequent comments, but there
is not living today, and i very much doubt
il one ever lived, whose writings and
speeches have been so widely copied and
read as those Of Champ Clark during the
last four years. / regard him as one OF
the strongest men in the American Con-
gress. There are others there as strong
Ia speech aud others as strong in thought,
but il is rare to find any man either IN or
out OF Congress, who is his equal both In
thought and speech. Not only is Champ
Clark entitled TO place among Famous
Missourians,' but am ready to put my
self on record that IL he lives and keeps
his health be is destined to become the
most Famous Missourian' OF his genera
ton"

Thomas Jefferson.s Bible.

Through the kindness OF Senator Red
field Proctor, the Kimball Public library
is IN possession OF a facsimile copy OF
Thomas Jefferson's Bible, which is now
the property Of the United States National
museum at Washington, having been OBJ
tanned by purchase in 1895.
In concurrent resolution the 57th Con-
gress ordered that ''there be printed and
bound by photolithographic process. with
an Introduction not to exceed Is pages by
DR.. Cyrus Adler, librarian OF the Smith
sonian lnstitute,n 5000 copies OF this Bible
for the use of Congress, 5000 for the SEN
ate and 5000 for the House. As the book
is opened on the left-han page are found
Greek and Latin texts and on the right
page French and English versions.
In his Introduction DR.. Adler says
"'Ihe texts were cut out of printed copies
of Greek, Latin, French and English Tes-
tGments and pasted in book of blank
pages handsomely bound in red morocco,
ornamented in gilt and titled on the back,

inal idea was to have the life and teach
ings Of the Savior told i'm similar excerpts,
prepared for the Indians, thinking this
simple form would suit them best, as
leaving them unembarrassed with matters
OF fact and faith beyond the level Of their
comprehension. But abandoning this
scheme, the formal execution OF his plan
took the shape CT a book for his indiyid-
ual use.
ale used the four languages that he
might have texts in them side by side con-
venient for comparison, and in the book
he pasted map OF the ancient world and
the Holy Land with which he studied the
New Testament. IL is evident that he
considered the Gospels as having much
extraneous matter, and that by careful
pruning there could be selected out those
sayings which were absolutely the words
of Jesus Himself, making the most sub
lime and benevolent code OF morals that
has ever been offered to man. From a
letter addressed TO a friend, his grand
children learned after his death that he
was in the habit OF reading nightly from
this collection before going to bed
In the facsimile copy are reproduced the
discolored pages Of the old blank book,
the marginal notes giving the Gospel and
chapter from which the texts are taken
and page Of notes in Jefferson's hand
writing.
The library is greatly indebted to Sena-
tor Proctor for this facsimile copy OF a
volume, which was the work OF the third
president OF the United States and the
author Of the Declaration OF Indepen-

That there was no sacrifice Of life
in a collision between Big FoG

Of speed with four laaaed coal cars
last night in the middle yards, at
a point opposite Tenth street, was

During the switching the engine threw
four cars ont on the main track

was close upon the cars and barely
had time to apply cir and reverse
his engine when the cohesion occurr-
ed Tho impact was fearful and
threw the coal cars high in the air

and there were a large number of
them, were thrown forward upon the
seats in front of them. They we're
all badly shaken up while two ladies'
received slight bruises about their

LIQUOR FOR MINORS.


The supreme court Of Illinois has
recently decided a new and novel qucs-
ton, enc in which every saloon Keeper
in the state is Interested. The deci.
sion is 70 the effect that an order from
a paren; 10 sell liquor to a minor must
be specific and definite and state the
exact amount. An order must be Civ
en- for each sale. A general order is
not good.
The case was that of the People
against Fred Hammer, of Paxton. for
selling liquor to minors without the
consent Of their parents. The statute
gives the liquor dealer permission TO
sell to minors on an order from the
parents. Mr.. Hammer presented TO
the court written orders which did not
state the amount or kind to he sold
The circuit court. the appellate court
aud finally the supreme court held that
these orders we're Illegal and that il
= against general public policy to
permit dram shops to sell 10 minors
on orders unlimited.
