FATE OF 140
GOING TO SEA ON LOG.
Survivor Of Florida Storm
Reaches England and Tells
Story of Horrors.
BY Publishers Press.

Sy EupnSnerS SIeSS. .
Liverpool, Nov 4-With the arrival
here Saturday night of the Harrison
liner Barrister from Galveston, it was
learned that one more of the supposed
victims of the terrible tornado which
swept Florida on Oct. 8, had been
saved.
On board the steamer was Thomas
Anderson, who was swept out to sea on
a. barge during the storm. He was
picked up miles off the Florida coast,
after he had endured hardships and suf-
fering which rival those Of John Rus
sell, who was landed in New York on
Oct. 25 by the steamer Ell Paso, which
picked him up after he had been thirty
six hours on a frail raft.
Anderson chung to single log Tor
over sixteen hours before he was res
cued. Buffeted by the waves a score Of
times, he was on the verge of giving up
in despair and cutting the rope with
which he dashed himself to the log, pre-
torment of his awful position. When
picked up he was so weak tina; fears
were entertained for awhile that he
would die. He rallied, however, and
was in apparent good shape when he
landed here last night.
Tells Story of Horrors.
His story. is a tale of the horrors of
shipwreck. which has seldom been
equaled. He was one of the lao labor
ers washed out to sea on houseboat
which had been anchored off Long
Keyes. The storm swept on the little
isle and near which the houseboat was
anchored without warning. Before the
occupants of the boats realized their
danger they were far out on the sea.
The shaky craft, which had never been
intended for anything but housing the
men in quiet waters, could not long
withstand the waves, and it soon went
to pieces. Anderson was able to pick
out good-sized log to which he lashed
himself. When the frail houseboat
finally collapsed the log kept him afoat.
For the sixteen hours he was dashed
to the log and in imminent peril Of
death, he was absolutely without food
or water and there seemed scant hope
of rescue. On the day following the
wreck of the houseboat, the Barrister,
staggering thru the waves, sighted the
log with it's human burden.

Duluth, MINI, Nov. 3.-W. G.. Joerns,
administrator Of the estate of Charles
Gaspar, one of Duluth g pioneers and a.
resident of the suburb Of Fond du Lac,
and who died last summer, has fled
sensational charges in connection with
the administration Of the estate by.
Charles Peterson, who had the position
before Joerns got it. -.
There was big fight over the choice
OF. Peterson and Joerns finally went to
court and got the place. He attacks
the bills made by Peterson for ser
vices, and charges that clerk of the
store which Gaspar kept took pocket
book from HIS pocket as he. carried his
sick employer to his room, and 5ex-'
pressed the belief that this contained
q large sum Of money. ~ ....- - 31f:.*i
He hints at collision between this
clerk. and Peterson. Joerns accuses
Peterson's wife of wearing a handsome
diamond ring that Gaspar owned and
that no accounting Of it was ever made
to the estate. He also charges that
Peterson made a promissory note to
Gaspar for $4,000, and that this has
disappeared and has never been ac-
counted for. Other charges almost as
sensational are found in the admins
traitors affidavit. 80 ~ -. ..,2:c

No Executions in Kansas.

In Kansas for a generation there
has not been a governor who would
afflx his name to a death warrant, and
thus the anomaly is presented of laws
providing for capital punishment re-
naming on the statute books, but pub
lie sentiment at the same time, indors-
ing a long line of governors in ignor-,
inS them. 4,.-+ -: :.
In the main, however, public opinion
in the United States insists upon the
olds Jewish law, of an eye for an eye
and tooth for a tooth, and holds that
the legal killing of certain classes of
criminals is essential to the safety of
the government and the protection of
society. The French politicians are
far in advance of this opinion, if their
position may properly be called an
advanced one. The electorate in French
cities is imbued with ideas that have
never secured any foothold here, and
the government necessarily reflects
these ideas. The recent action of the
Clemenceau ministry is one Of the most
striking Of these reflections --
Publicists in Washington are uneer-
tain whether or not the French exper.
iment will work the result which M.
Clemenceau evidently thinks it will
work., namely, a. reduction Of crime. If
they have an opinion at all it is to the
effect that the French cabinet will re.
greet the action it has taken. Every
person in the United States who is in
terested in the study Of questions bear
ing upon crime, and it's suppression
and punishment, will take a lively in.
terest in the French experiment and,
follow it closely.
