STORIES OF HEROLSM ARE
TOLD BY CARNEGIE MEDALS

Philadelphia Pa. special: Those Car
negie hero medals are just being received
by the brave men and women throughout
the country to whom they ave been
awarded. There was a disagreement
among the members OF the commission
Will regard to the design. and. although
in many instances the actual awards were
made long ago. the medals were not pre-
scented.
1t Is a story that one can read again
and again-this record OF the modern
heroes. Every medal has a whole me!o-
drama of the finest type behind 1t. And
the list Is a .gratifyingly long one.

Caste and his daring crew OF the little
fishing schooner Alberta. When the steam
ship Cherokee went ashore on Atlantic
City. and was pounding herself to pieces
in a tremendous sea. Captain Casio called
for volunteers. and sailed straight
through the foaming breakers to the
stranded vessel.
Rescued Sixty Passengers.
While the Alberta reared and leaped as
though in mortal fear, the captain and his
men took off the siXty-odd passengers and
brought them safely ashore. 1t was one
OF the most spectacular rescues ever per
formed on the Atlantic coast. and the
name and fame OF Casio spread all over
the world.
He was at hat time suffering from an
afliction Of the eyes. and the exposure
and strain made 1t necessary for him to
undergo an operation in this city soon
afterward. Just before the operation he
was the guest of honor at a Glover club
dinner.
Casio is to receive an ornate gold
medal, setting forth the nature of the
deed by which it was so we'll earned. and
