PERIL AT SEA.
Crew Of Gasoline Laden Schooner in an
Electric Storm,


Capt Johnson and the crew of the schoon-
er j. s. Hoskins had thrilling experience
at sea a few days ago that they cannot think
OF even now without having involuntary
chills to course along their spinal column.
The schooner was bound down the coast
with general cargo. On deck she had
100 cases of gasoline and in the hold 900
barrels Of Oil. OFF Charleston she ran into
an electrical storm, and while the men shiv-
cred and shook, the lightning played game
of tag among the gasoline cases on deck.
To add to their discomfort the gale as
sumed hurricane proportions and the seas
rolled topmast high With the lightning
playing about the deck the crew had to
furl all sails tightly, in order to keep from
being swamped. AS though this were not
enough the fore topmast was struck by an
electric bolt and the burning fluid travelled
down the rigging and across the gasoline
laden deck.
1t looked as If a marine disaster was
about to take place and that the Hoskins
was to be numbered with the missing, but
nothing came of it and the storm passed
away Never were mariners more glad than
were the crew of the Hoskins when their
experience was over. The schooner is Iy-
Ing at Baltimore with a cargo of lumber
from Jacksonville.

Required to Support His Children.

Logan Prosise was arraigned in the Po-
lice Court before Judge Scott this morn
ing on q charge of falling to support four
minor children. At the close of the hearing
of the case the defendant said that he was
willing to support his children and his per-
sonal bonds were taken to pay $40 a week
toward their support. Judge Scott fixed
time and place where the payments are to
be made.
Susan A. Prosise, the wife of the defen-
dant, was the chief witness. She stated
that she did not receive sufficient amount
to support herself and the children. She
maintained that the house needed repairing
and her husband would not make the re-
pairs. She complained that she could not
clothe herself and the children on the
amount which the husband promised to
pay. Several times his honor had to re-
mind her that she must seek redress for
herself in another court. At the close 1t
was distinctly understood that the money
to be paid was to go toward the support
of the children

priority over an unrecorded deed, accord
ing to a decision by Justice Stafford of the
District Supreme Court in the case Of the
Ohio National Bank against Henry B. Ber-
lin and Thomas Green.
The suit was a judgment creditors bill
filed after the new District code went into
effect. the judgment in the case having
been obtained before the code became OPP
eratve. deed to the property in question
was made to the defendant Green before
the bill was filed, but 1t was not recorded

retroactive and only applies to judgments
obtained subsequent to the code.
