CHICAGO, ILL.,, Nov. 8.--Andrew H..
Crawford a rich young man OF Lake
View, and the youngest son of the
late Andrew Crawford, capitalist, chose
an extremely late or a remarkably
early hour for his wedding.
He was married at 3 o'clock yester-
day morning in ST. Joseph, Mich, to
Miss Evelyn Wright. 219 jackson Park
terrace. Miss Wright is a member of
the Chicago Yacht club and is an en-
thusiastic and daring sailor.
The wedding took place in the parlor
of the Whitcomb hotel in st. Joseph,
and none of the relatives Of either Mr..
or Mrs. Crawford was present at the
ceremony. None, indeed, knew Of its
imminence. The reason that the wee
sma' hour was chosen for the ceremony
was the happy pairs failure to catch
an early train from Chicago Wednes-
day evening. The ceremony was per-
formed by the Rev. H. s. Roblee of the
st. Joseph Congregational church, who
was called from his bed for the pur-
pose. .,e 49,.
The romance which eliminated in the
wedding began in a storm on Lake
Michigan early last summer, near
Mackinaw island Mr.. Crawford's yacht
is the Mamie, and Miss Wright's is the
Aileen. ,t.
The Aileen was being buffeted Sc
Verely by the high wind, and Miss
Wright was having difficulty In tack
ing toward the shore. Sighting the girl
at the helm with his glass, and fearing
that her boat would be capsized Craw-
ford tackled slowly toward her In the
hope of being of assistance.
A favorable shift in the wind took
the smaller craft quickly in toward the
shore, but not until Miss Wright had
lost two of her life boats, one Of which
she had attempted to launch.
One of the boats was picked up by
Crawford after the wind had subsided.
and he delivered 1t to its owner.
During the early autumn they saw
less of each other, and the adventure
which brought affairs to a climax and q
a. m. wedding Is said by their friends
to have taken place in st. Joe last
week. Miss Wright took her boat to
the Prescott dock in the dusk of the
gray day which preceded the big gale
on the lakes, and moored 1t with lot
of other craft. 1t was nearly dark
when she left the boat and she had
noticed that 1t was scraping sides with
the long, rangy Mamie" which had
been moored at the dock by its owner.
Its strange how they found their
way together" said a voice as she step
ped from the boat. She stood a mo-
ment radiant against the gray colors
fthe forbidding sky. as the romantic
novel might say, before she recognized
Crawford, who had heard OF her ar
rival and had come down to the dock
Yes, 1t is strange" replied the girl
Perhaps we had better lot them stay
together" he said.
On Wednesday young Mr.. Crawford
came over to Chicago and arranged
with Miss Wright to go with him to
st. Joe. They missed the afternoon
train and took n late night express.
The wedding ceremony was witnessed
only by the hotel clerk, w. ]. Leslie,
and Miss Sarah Careys a Chicago ac-
quaintance of Miss Wright.
The Crawford family, who dwell at
109 Pine Grove avenue, expect to re-
ceive visit from the bride and groom

Special to The Herald. O.. g.. ~
NEW YORK, Nov S.-4The crew of
the British steamer Sabine drew their
pay at the consufs Office yesterday and
resigned because the ship was. over
run with rats Timothy Pyecreft, a
fireman, said that after leaving aSan1a-

hammocks out OF canvas served them
by the captain and managed, to. sleep
unmolested. .. ~.
The Sabine left Java with 5000 bags
of sugar, through which the ferocious
rodents rummaged. They must have
become intoxicated from the alcohol in
the sugar, for they nightly left the
sweets to invade the fo'c'sle and even
the officers rooms. ..s
There was a promenade of rats over
the bridge deck every night. Some
times rival leaders met and Fought,
which enlivened the lonesome watches.
The sailors say that hundreds Of them
looked into the fo'c'sle. Finally they
became such a menace that the crew
burned charcoal to drive them out with
the fumes.

Positions Upon His staff

"I would rather have in this library
a girl who did not know at a given
time when California was discovered
or who wrote the Illiad than the girl
who knows these things and thinks
she knows enough" said Librarian
Charles Lumms last evening at the
meeting of the library board, regard
ing the examinations Of the eighteenth
training class.
The most vital thing" continued
Mr.. Lummis, "in an institution of this
sort is the desire to learn and the
ability to use when learned The IL
brary is not kindergarten. The most
earnest candidate and the most will
Ing to learn must have learned certain
things before she can be intrusted with
responsibility which includes not
only services to the individual pat
rons but a good deal of the reputation
OF the city.
II recommend that eastern libra
rians for accredited training and COM
petent experience be given a chance to
enter this staff"
Mr. Lummis expressed himself en-
phatically against the employees of the
library using their positions as a pc
cunlary safeguard while looking for
more remuneratlve positions. He also
referred to the feasibility of a library
for street car men at the corner of
Fifty-thrd and San Pedro streets,
making 1t a branch delivery from the
main library
Action was taken by the board pro-
viding more liberal salaries to the
members Of the staff according to the
merit system.
The action of the council regarding
the removal of the library was dis

NEW YORK, Nov. 8.-Thomas Cur
tbs, who is described as Beau Brum-
mel at police headquarters, says he
abandoned the life of a night watch
man to talk money out of women. He
is ir the Tombs awaiting trial for the
theft of one dollar. He was arrested
at the door of a Bronx church last Sum
day as he was leaving with a prayer
book in his hand.
II heard him talk a dollar out of my
WIFE," said Police Surgeon William F.
Donovan yesterday. "I knew that he
was swindler, but he was so suave
1 almost felt 1t was privilege to see
my wife robbed"
The police say Curtis has swindled
thousands Of women on the pretext
that he was magazine solicitor. The
police Of every city in the country have
been looking for him. For two years
he has been member Of the United
Presbyterian church at 18th street and
Lorillard place, teacher in the Sum

gone to church. The pastor was as

Consumption in the Country.


Vermont is going to fight consumption
Systematically. Vermont. We should re-
call, has a population of only 344,0O0-not
more than half many as the city of ST
Louis Moreover it is a rural state, with
no large cities, while its mountains, Its
pine woods it's clear streams, it's pure air.
have made 1t the summer playground and
residence of the rich of the eastern states
But Vermont Is afflicted with the great
white plague to such a degree that she
will begin systematic effort for the pre-
venton and cure of 1t.
The cause of the prevalence of the dis
ease there is ignorance, the offspring of
which is insanitary living. In this Ver-
mont certainly is not alone; the rural pop
ulation of any state-or Indiana-needs
warning. 1t is only the outdoor work that
stand as they do against this disease. fed
and nurtured as it is by insanitary dwell
ings and unhealthy Diet
The sanitary arrangements of the aver
age farmhouse are appalling. Drains are
poor and sodden with years of neglect;
sinks and vaults are allowed to become
plague spots; the rooms of the house, gem
orally small and with low ceilings, are
unventilated by night or day, while kerr
sene lamps add their impure offgivings to
the air. Sleeping apartments are too often
crowded with occupants, who all night
breathe air kept poisonous by tightly closed
windows. In Vermont this sort of thing is
coming to its own so completely that nov
the state is forced to fight the conse-
quences consumption in a systematic
way. The leaf out of the book for our in
formation is plain. We shall one day have
state sanatorium for consumptives; but
no less valuable part of the campaign
is that which shall educate the dwellers in
small towns and farms to a wholesome
way of living as to drains. ventilation and
proper food.

WHAT WILL FOLLOW PEACEp
Is Outburst of Financial Prosperity to
Be Expected.

From the New York Evening Post.
Reports current at the close of the week
that the car and his family were about
to bow to the inevitable and sue for peace
revived very definitely the controversy
over what, in the way of financial pros
perity or reaction should follow peace
The popular belief undoubtedly is that
forward leap of financial achievement and
expansion would be a necessary result
There are those, however, who answer
that the full effects of the waste and de-
struction Of the war are rarely felt until
war Is over.
There have been wars enough in recent
times to test the question, but the results
on return of peace have been confusing.
Every one knows what prolonged and
disappointing reaction followed the
Transvaal peace at the end of May, 1902.
But every one knows, also, what an out
burst of optimism and enthusiasm fol-
lowed our peace with Spain in the au-
tumn of 1S9S-a revival affecting Spain
as well as America. The financial sequel
to the Franco-Prussian peace in 1871 was
extremely perplexing. The world over,
| except. perhaps, in France, 1872 was a
| famous boom year.; but the equally
world wide collapse of 1873 was ascribed
nv MANY economists to the derangement
| of international finance two years before.
! The peace of San Stefano, which ended
/ the Russo-Turkish war, seemed to have
| no Immediate effect on the finances of
o, x
| United States, followed a year later and
was not upset even by the European har-
vest failure of 1859.
Again, there was our civil war. It's end
| ing in 1865 was followed by brief and
| feVerish revival OF industry. but the re-
adjustment of International trade and
values which ensued led directly to the
| crash of 1885, The Crimean war ended
in 1856; the panicsof 1857, affecting every
important commercial estate, came quick
| on the heels of it, The manner in which
the prolonged financial distress came
chapter in history
How many of these results were coinci-
| dences. and how many logical conse-
ouences? This is q, puzzling question. The
most that can be said Is that exhausting
war in which a powerful financial state
is a participant. usually has unpleasant
after effects. The fact that neither bel
lieerent in the present war is such state
NAV mean that the Russo-Turkish con-
fict of 1877 is the nearest analogy.

COOKING WITHOUT FIRE.
Ingenious Idea of a Firm Manufactur-
ing Soups.



At various recent food expositions there
has been on show an invention for heating
food without fire and without the usual
troublesome accessories of pots and pans
An innocent-looking tomato soup tin has
four holes punched at one end. and imme-
diately that is done the whole thing begins
to fizz and boil. 1t is left for five minutes
until the heating materials evaporate,
turned upside down, and left for another
five minutes; then it is opened in the ordi-
nary way, when thoroughly cooked soup
can be poured out. The food, which is pre-
pared by some well-known firms, is of the
first quality. About a dozen varieties of
soup can be had, and the same number of
entrees, besides coffee, cocoa and chocolate.
1t is a great find for the motorist on a
tour of business or camping for pleasure.
Room has to be found in the car for the
required number of tins of the usual timed
food size. and after a meal, of course, the
used tins can be thrown away. A hundred
other instances Immediately suggest them
selves In which such an invention would
be valuable-as an emergency ration for the
soldier on the field, while accommodating, on
outpost duty or in bivouac; as a means of
provision for the aeronaut, the sportsman,
the yachtsman, the sailor and the explorer,
for solitary occupant of a city fiat who
has grown weary of restaurant meals, as
an ally of the housewife when cook Is Ill
or pnuexistent. 1t might even be adopted
by I, = patient member of a "flrst-night''
theater queue, or the adventurous loyalist
who waits long hours in the hope of view
ing some imperial procession. And tho
wonder of 1t is that no one has forestalled
the ingenious American discoverer, for the
secret OF the process is that cold water
poured on lime brings It to boiling point.

SPANS CAVE DWELLER.
He Proves to Be Farmland Driven to
the Forest by Lack of Work.
From the London Express.

The discovery of a troglodyte (cave
dweller) in the Basque province near Fuen-
terrabia, on the Franco-Spanish frontier,
has aroused considerable curiosity here.
AS a customs guard with his dogs was
searching In wood yesterday an extraordi-
nary being in the image of a man was
seen 10 rush before him with wonderful
rapidly and disappear into a hole In a
mountain. The guard followed on and
found the wild man had blocked up the
entrance TO his cave with pieces of timber
and stones. which, however, were easily
removed and the man was captured.
He was absolutely prehistoric in APP
pearance. His only garment was a skin
tied around the hips. His long and matted
beard fell over his chest like cloak, while
his hair trailed down his back In a thick
mass. In his cave were found numerous
bones of sheep. deer and other animals
which he had eaten, a sling a club and a
stone AK A bed of moss was his only
furniture.
The guard brought the troglodyte to
Fuenterrabia, where his appearance created
a sensation. Before the magistrate he ex-
planned that his name was Prudencio; he
was twenty-eight years old, and had been,
when an infant. an inmate of a founding
hospital In San Sebastian. He had formerly
acted az farmland. but two years ago. be-
ing unable TO find work and being In great
distress he took TO the forest. There he
lived on aeorns. hazel nuts and birds eggs.
Little by little he learned to use a sling
and the az, and was able TO kill deer and
shsep which mad strayed, As he had no fire
he ate ths flesh VI these animals raw.
