party of ladies and gents took a
gasoline launch and went to Green

lsuach struck snsg and knocked
hole in her allowing a great stream
of water to rush in. The women
cried, prayed and screamed until
they startled the citizens of two
states. One man kept busy trying
to keep the water out of the boat.
Others were kept busy holding the
ladies in the boat. The situation
grew worse. A Mr.. Wagner begged
to be excused. and stripped and
swan to shore for a boat, couldn't
find any and ran up the bank shout
ing until the ferryboat heard him
and went back and rescued all of
them. ALI were wet to the knees

a hotel and dried and sent home on

ately thereafter was seized with

The Eclipse of the Sun,

Old Sol held the boards last
Wednesday morning as the chief
attraction before the eyes of an au-
dience of millions of human beings
on old mother earth.
The Point Pleasant people were
only allowed to enjoy a portion of
the big show as the total eclipse
was not visible in this section. The
conditions were favorable for see-
ing what there was of the show
and hundreds took advantage of
it.
Just after the sun rose Wednes-
day morning the outer edge of the
disk was invaded by the shadow of
the moon, and the dark semi-circle
continued to grow larger until
about seven O'Clock, when nearly
half the sun obscured. Then the
shadow began reoeding and at
seven thirty it had disappeared.
The conditions were very favor
able, as there were only a few
clouds and continuous view of the
sun could be had. The eclipse
was plainly visible to the naked
eye. but it could be viewed with
satisfaction only through smoked
glass.
