through the ice on the Great Wicom!-
co river, Virginia, two years ago.
Young had strayed away from a party
of skaters further up the river, and
yentured upon ice that had not been
tried. 1t was a lonely section OF the
country. and when the boy fell into
the water his cries for help were
heard only by n white woman. Mrs.
Sadie l. Crabbe. who was walking
along the bank of the river. Selling a
plank which lay near by, Mrs Crabbe
endeaVored TO reach the struggling
negro, SO eager was she in this at.
tempt TO save the colored boys life
that she yentured too Tar out on the
ice, which broke beneath her Young.

one step too far, evidently forgot his
own plight when he saw Mrs Crabbe
fall into the water and tried 10 save
her. Both the white woman and the
colored boy however. were drowned.

Lucy E. Ernst

It was a unique deed Of heroism
that won for Miss Ernst, OF Philadel'
phia, one OF the commissions silver
medals Two years ago she was TX
ing an outing in the country with
friend. Harry f.. Schoenut, lad OF 10.
The two tramped through the woods
and along the side Of rocky raVine.
The latter gave but a poor footing to
pedestrians, and in jumping across
rift between two boulders Schoenut
slipped and fell There was an angry
whirr and rattle OF sound and before
he could save himself the fangs OF a
rattlesnalle were fastened in Schoe-
nuts arm. The reptile darted back
into his hole beneath the rock, but al
most instantly his victims arm began
to swell and turn black. Thoroughly
terrified, Schoenut declared that he
was dying, and implored his compan'
ion to save herself from possible dan
ger Miss Ernst, however, tore the
young mans sleeve from his arm, and,
applying her lips to the wound made
by the RATHER, tried to suck out the
poison This she did at imminent
peril to herself, as she knew. because
a cut on her own lip brought her into
the most dangerous contact with the
poison. Once during the operation the
intrepid girl cut a cash in Schoenut's
arm, TO make the blood come faster
as she afterward expressed it, The
boy tainted at the sight OF his own
blood. and it was only by beating him
in the face that Miss Ernst succeeded
in reyIyIng him and keeping him NOV
ing Half dragging. half carrying him,
she finally reached clubhouse mile
away from where the accident hap
pened, She carried the unconscious
lad up the clubhouse steps, her dress
from the neck down spattcrcd with
blood, and fell In faint beside him.
Medical assistance was procured and

EdWord Campbell

For more than year there was
bitter fcud between two young coal
miners at Buena Vista little mining
town on the Youghlogheny river, near
Pittsburg Just what the trouble was
has never been made known; but
whether in the mining camp or on the
river or in the boarding house where
they both lived together, George
South and Ed Campbell never spoke
to each other. One day, about three
years ago. the alarm went out that
South had fallen into the river at the
end Of great coal chute. Campbell
heard the alarm and rushed to the
river. There was no sign of South,
who, he knew, could not swim, and it
was evident that the Inflated man had

Petra Peterson. aged 30 married
Andrew III. Lien three months ago and
their honeymoon was scarcely over
when the tragedy occurred. They
lived on farm ten miles south of this
town and their home was favorite
place for the young people of the com
munity to gather. When the young
couple retired few nights ago, the
fire in the sitting room above was
quite low. About midnight the hus
band arose to look after 1t. Fearing
it would go out he threw in some kero,
sene, or possibly, as some of the
neighbors think, gasoline. An explos
ion followed, enveloping the man in
flames. He was terribly burned, his
thin attire being consumed instantly
His screams brought his young wife
from her bed
With a skirt which she had grabbed
as she ran, she fought the flames and
managed to drag her husband from
their midst The whole room was
ablaze and she realized the useless
ness OF trying to extineuish the fast
growing fire.
Although much smaller than her
sturdy husband, she practically car
ried him, herself barefoot, through the
ing form in a pile of hay and returned
to the house for clothing The whole
building was in flames. She could
neither enter 10 get wearing apparel
nor to telephone to neighbors. She
knew she must, herself. go for aid.

young bride took the scorched skirt

and bitter cold wind, almost nude. A

determined on a plan OF rescue. Dash
ing up the stairways OF an adjoining
house until he reached the fourth
floor, he made his way along series
of window lodges to the fire escape
where Mrs. cyl and her terrified chill
dren stood. From this perilous posi-
ton he passed the latter to persons
in neighboring fiat, and then handed
Mrs. cyl, who was unconscious from
fright and the suffocating effects Of
the smoke, to fireman who mounted
a ladder to one of the fourth-story
windows. O'Brien himself nearly lost
his life in the flames and smoke, and
was carried to the street by firemen.

silver medal for his bravery.

New York Two years ago Andre"
Carnegie conceived the novel idea or
discovering and rewardng true hero
ism wherever ii may occur For this
purpose a hero fund commission was
appointed whose preliminary laDof5
have now been completed, Deeds or
daring, whether By land or sea, In the
effort TO save life, have received due
recognition in this way, while the
task Of the commission has resulted,
besides. In bringing together a series
of little tales OF human pluck, endur-
ance and sef-abnega the reading
OF which is bound to give an uplifting
sense of some Of the noblest qualities
OF men and women when brought face
to face with the peril that at some
supreme moment, threatens the lives
OF their fellow beings.
OF the SO cases OF heroism which
the commission, after prolonged and
careful Investigation, has deemed
worthy OF public recognition, the fol
lowing have been selected on account
of the novel human interest which
characterlzes them They tell OF the
courage and humanity Of men, women,
and even children, in all walks OF life,
and in every section Of the United
States. Not every hero thus chron'
iclcd has succeeded In the rescue that
he has planned while numbers have
lost their own lives in the effort TO
save the lives OF others. II forms a
striking record altogether unique
among human annals, and may be
taken as a true and lasting tribute TO
the self sacrificing love OF man for
