A PERILOUS EXPERIENCE

Ben Benson and Ben Oleson. G!ou-
cester fishermen, missing since Septem-
ber from the Gloucester fisherman
Arbutus, turned up sound and well OIL
the Scandnavian-Americ liner Helg
OIav The two Bens were assigned
one day by Captain Ptiuger of the Ar
butus to set out the travis off the
Grand Banks. They rowed away in
the dory to do it, and that was the
last the men of the Arbutus saw of
them. A thick fog settled off the
Banks about that time, and the trawi
settlers We're unable to find their way
back to the vessel.
Then they began to drift. and the
seas got chOppy, and they had all
they could do to keep the sixteen-foOt
dory afloat. For the next twenty four
hours they bailed out the water that
poured with relentless regularity into
their frail craft. They had neither
food nor fresh water, and matters soon
became serious. The second day 4 big
tramp steamship was sighted and the
cntwater caused the little dory to do
all kinds of stunts, but the lookout on
the tramp did not see them. and the
steamer was soon lost to view.
The next day they sighted another
steamship. This time it was an ocean
liner heading at full speed for New
York. 1t was several miles away. and
the man on the lookout again failed
to see them. The great ocean grey
hound went her way. Benson and
Oleson continued to drift.
The Gloucester men We're almost
crazed for water and food, but they
kept OH bailing and hoping. For three
days they hoped. The sky was clear
and blue all these last three days,
but neither sail nor smoke from pass
ing craft did they sight They knew
that unless somebody sighted them
within day it was thousand to one
that they would die.
Almost exhausted, but still bailing,
when the sun came up OH the morning
of the seventh day, their hearts al
most leaped into their throats, for only
few hundred yards away was the
steamship Nicolai H., bound for Copcn-
hagen. The lookout saw them. and
ten minutes later the Nicolai had
stopped and lifeboat was on the way
to rescue them. In an hour they We're
safe on board the Nicolai II. and on
the way to Copenhagen.
When the Nicolai III. reached Copen-
hagen the American Consul took the
Gloucester men in charge and sent
them home.-New York Times.

There were no trails in those frozen

and on famine rations they struggled
northward. Some of them came upon

and difficult portage, and often. for

but their sleeping bags.
1t was impossible to calculate def
