PANIC ON A FERRY BOAT.
But Loss of Life Is Averted in New
Yerk Harbbr


New Worthwhile the Delaware,
Lackawanna & Western ferry boat
Mont Clair was crowded from end to
end on a trip from the foot of Christie
pher street to Hoboken, fire burst from
beneath the middle of the inner row
of seats in the mems cabin on the star
board side. So sudden was the out
burst of flames that those sitting on
the seats had narrow escapes from
being burned.
Shouts of fire sent the passengers
in rush to the open ends of the boat,
men almost pushing one another into
the water. The panic spread to the
women's cabin, which was also
crowded, there being about 1000 pas
sengers on the boat.
The Mont Clair was in midstream
AS quickly as they could make their
way to the fire extinguishers, the deck
hands took them down and played on
the fire. which quickly became only a
smudge of sitting smoke. The boat
was driven with all speed, with
whistle shrieking, to the Hoboken
slip. The passengers rushed ashore,
and the fire department put out what
remained of the blaze.

Pretty True Story.

1t is the same old story. A happy
young husband and a devoted wife
struggles through hardships to success
and then on toward wealth and-mis-
cry.
Is Mrs. Laura Corey, wife of the
millionaire, w. Ellis Corey, wishing
for the good old days of poverty?
The father of the millionaire says:
eff my son thinks that Laura does
not love him he is wrong, dead wrong.
When woman slaves and starves
through $40 per month period with
aman, when she mends his clothes and
divides the last Crust with him, when
she bears him children and rears or
buries them, as Laura did for Ellis, it
is safe to say that she loves him.
And still we are told the same old
story, the story of pretty face, a
mans mad infatuation; the story of a
mans millions and of a wife's broken
heart. In the good old days, for the
trusting wife, the last crust was sweet
ened by the love of the only man in
the world.
Empty is the success that bows in
shame the gray head of a devoted
father.
Cursed is the gold that only feeds
the evil desires that break the heart of
a faithful wifel
And sometimes we of poverty COM
plain of our hard lot.
Is there no glitter of glass upon your
table?
Maybe the shine of glass and silver
is not for you.
Look for the shine in the eyes of the
husband, still your lover. Though his
hands are grimy with toll and though
your own are hardened with homely
duties, if the shine of love is there, be
lad.
Think of the broken hearted woman
of wealth and count your mercies.
Look and think, then break your
crust, and though it be the last, bt
grateful for the love that it keeps
sweet.

Repays Kindness by Taking Fine
SeaIskin Cape.

Seattle, WASN'T trusted him be-
cause he was my husbands best
riend. He boarded at our house and
paid nothing. When he was sick
cared for him. This is his gratitude. :"
This was spoken by Mrs. w. T..
Toole, when Detective Adams report
ed to her that P. A. Bagey is the man

home. The cape is valued at $685..
Bagey confessed to the officer that he
tole the cape and had expressed it to
his brother, who lives in California.
Toole is wealthy mining man and
a near relative of Governor Toole of
Montana. The sealskin cape was a
costly one, made for one of the Toole
children. 1t hung in a closet, and as
Bagey, who was a lodger at the house,
had free access to all the rooms, he
could easily take it. Bagey could have
aiken $4,000 worth of diamonds, when
were exposed in the same room from
which he took the cape. kilograms
have been sent to the San Francisco
police to recover the cape. Bagey will
be prosecuted for grand larceny.
