GIRL SCOOPED FROM BAY
Remarkable Rescue of One of a
Sailing Party.
Three of Eight Who Ended Carouse
in a Boat Drowned in New
York Harbor.

New York City.-A party of eight,
composed of four men and four wom-
en-, ventuEed upon the waters of the
Lower Bay in the auxiliary sloop
Sausage at night after a jolly dinner
at ~Sheepshead Bay. The boat was
small and the sea ran high.
The night was particularly dark
and there was a strong wind blow
ing. The boat became disabled, and,
drifting about near Hoffman Islandt
was struck by a scow in tow of a tug.
The occupants of the sloop were
thrown into the water.
Five of the party, three men and
two women, were rescued. One man
was picked up by a boat from the
incoming liner Ell Paso, three others
were taken aboard a tug, and the
fifth escaped drowning in a more
marvellous way. The saved were
Philip and w. w. Dodd, bookmakers
of Sheepshead Bay; a man named
Klees, whose full name and address
the others did not know; Mabel
Cooke, of 342 st. Nicholas avenue, a
salesgirb and Fannie Day, of the
same address, her companion.
Three, two men and a woman,
were drowned. Of the woman it is
only known that she was called Mrs.
Saunders" that she was tall and
dark and wore eyeglasses, that she
came from Boston and was a guest Of
Mabel Cooke. The names of the men
are in doubt. One may be Russell
Beeler. The dinner party was not
n of friends, but merely of chance
acquaintance.
Fannie Day, who lived at the same
address as Mabel Cooke, was saved,
after one of the most remarkable ex-
periences known in the history of
the waterfront hereabout. When the
launch was struck she sank deep into
the water to come up beneath the
scow.
By sheer good fortune, che found
a haven in the hopper of a fatboat-
a little place scarcely big enough to
turn around in. Hanging on to a
chain for her life, she was towed up
the harbor to be found only when
the scow had reached it's dock.

The Words of eternal Life.

The history of the progress of
Christianity, which is frequently ap-
pealed to by those who advocate a
modern reconstruction of the bases
of belief, affords ample evidence that
much which is claimed as radical
change has simply been a change OF
emphasis. BY this Christianity has
given proof that it is the only re-
ligion adequate for the needs of the
world" 1t cannot be too strongly
impressed upon the mind that a
change of emphasis does not imply a
re-statement of belief, but is simply
a recognition of a temporary need
for greater prominence to be given to
n or another aspect OF an IN
changeable truth.-London Chris
tian.

The S~infuInesS of Sin.

Unhappily that "secularization of
morals" which the late Herbert
Spencer proclaimed to be Imperative
ly necessary, has already made some
progress. The tendency to minimize
Sin-by characterizing it, not as a
personal crime against God, but
rather as ''indiscretion," a disease"
or as the inevitable result of "hered-
ity" in irresponsible personals de-
veloping in quarters where there
ought to be clearer and more accur-
ate views of life. There can be no
successful sin" 1t may be hidden
from man, and only from man, but
in the divine order its inevitable re-
suit is death from. 6:2S), and no
preacher can be rue to his Master
who fails to declare that immutable
truth.-London Christian.

1t is one thing to ask God to help

Mexico City.-It is generally I'M
derstood that n of the principal OBJ

trip to Europe is to bring about the
acquisition of the Mexican Central
Railway by the Mexican Government.
This %supposition is strengthened by
the fact that Vice-President Rich
ards, of the Central, has also gone to
Paris.
The acquisition of the railroad
would have great political signiff-

only way that the roads can be regu-

Twentieth Century Fiction.

The mind of the average person is often

the trend and development of fiction OF
the twentieth century will finally lead to,
and what will be its ultimate destiny.
Formerly fiction was the vehicle of
romance. of idealism. of tradition. of high
sentiment and poetic thought 1t occupied

things Of life. a charmed region wherein,
when one had entered the door swung to.

gallant knight with his raven stced, the
lily-pure maid of his love, and the lesser

where they were central figures OF in

Later day writers pish and pshaw over
the romanticism of their predecessors
Realism, say they, and not romanticism;
realism and life Is what is needed Ac-
