Life on q LightshIp.

When Lightship 50 foundered of Nam
tucket Shoals on December II her crew
was rescued exhausted and despairing,
but none Of its members was able to
save any Of his personal effects. Con-
gress has been asked by the Department
OF Commerce and Labor to reimburse
these sufferers for their losses, and in
the claims they have filed l~andlubbers
may find some hints Of the name in
which the lonely hours unocoupied by
duty are beguiled by the men who keep
the danger signals burning.
The crew of Lightship So consisted Of
a master, a mate, an engineer, an assist
ant engineer, a steward, a fireman and
four seamen, and they put their total
loss in personal effects at 81, 622 81. The
master, JAMES JoRGENsoN, was the
heaviest loser. The tools OF his trade
are expensive, but they did not cost as
much as did the indulgence Of his musi-
cal tastes. Among the items enumerated
in his affidavit are these:
One 1ute. sterling silver valves .......... 10000
Two violin bows 500
Three violin music books 500
Harvest OF Flowers" for violin and piano. A.bo
Various violin and piano music. estimated. 1000
Three violin moulds 0nside) .............. 800
One pint violin vsrnish. ....,......... 400
Five brushes $50
Among the other personal effects that
Captain JoRGENsoN lost on the ship was
a set Of upper and lower false teeth,
worth $50. He was not the only musical
member Of the crew, for the mate,
CHARLES F.. ACORN, owned a reed organ
worth $26 and two autoharps valued
at $40. STEPHEN s. DAVIS, engineer Of
the ship. apparently had no care for
music, for he lists nothing except cloth
ing and the usual equipment of an en-
gineer. The assistant engineer, JOHN
E. LUBY, did not go in for music either,
but he possessed a library consisting of
two engineering books, a book on cleo
trioity, and three volumes recorded only
as books"
None of the other members Of the Grew
had books or musical instruments, and
the goods they lost consisted Of clothing
and toilet articles exclusively. Perhaps
they were gifted with melodious voices
and formed a choir to sing to the music
of the violin soraping, flute blowing
captain or the organ pumping mate
while the studious Mr.. LUBY pursued
his professional studies or buried him
self in n of the unidentified books. A
pleasing change it must have been from
the captains watch with its 1ddling to
the mates with it's autoharps or reed
organ. And on clear days when the
sea was smooth it is pleasant to think
that the captain played his fiddle for
dancing while the crew trod the grace
full measures for which sailormen the |
world over are justly celebrated. The
flute is a soft, a soothing instrument,
for days of stress and bad weather
and mournful moments that must COM
to those who keep vigil OIL the deep.
That Lightship SIS had a brave and
crew the public learned from
their plucky fight against great odds
when their vessel was sinking. A tai
and entertaining crew it was, too,
apparently. We hope its members will
be treated literally by Congress and re-
imbursed for all the property they lost
through the laundering Of the ship.

Beauty is the external proof of health; will failing health comes failing beauty. IVon- ans delicate organism Is ire quently over-taxcd by arduou5 household duties, and the de nands of society. The con stant drain upon her vitality weakens her nervous system. The penalty is a tired, Worn- out, exhausted coniition which destroys her appetite, robs her of rest, and at intervals causes much suffering an1 distress.

NIGOROuS PROtit CAMPAIGN.
WilI Attempt to Secure Passage By
 Legislature of State Liquor Law.

| Little Rock. April 16-Prepar- ations are being made for the most vigorous campaigns against the saloon interests in Arkansas that were ever conducted in this state.
 The executive committee of
 the Inter-Church Temperance Federation of Arkansas are lay ing plans for what they expect to be the most effective no-li-
 cense campaign which this state has ever before experienced. l According to the report of E. A. Tabor, the field secretary of the federation, the finances of the organization are in shape to warrant the crusade that is to be undertaken.
 Blont C. Trice, a former news
 paper man and now practicing attorney in this city, is the author of a bill which is indorsed by the temperance advocates and which will be introduced in the
 next legislature, and it's passage advocated from start to finish. The measure provides that if a majority of the vote in the gen. eral election shall be against license, it shall be unlawful to sell intoxicating liquors any where within the boundaries of the state. The present local option law applies only to coun- ties. About four-ffths of the counties are prohibition counties, and should the proposed measure become a law 1t is believed that every saloon in Arkansas woul d be voted out of the state.
 The inter-church federation proposes to appoint a central company in each county. auXil- iary to the central board, and that the campaign shall be con- ducted in a systematic and thor ough manner. Temperance lit- erature will be printed and dis tributed among the Sunday Schools of the state and the board will arrange for the pre- sentation of it's work at all con- ventions. conferences and other church gatherings; many tem- perance orators will be placed in the field; organizations for the work will be effected in every township, in every county and the active services of as many women in Arkansas as possible will be enlisted in the campaign.
