Jersey representative in 1S4S, secured
an appropriation for lifeboats on the
Jersey coast and awakened public in
terest that afterward crystalized in
the life saving service.
Its Worth in Salvage.
The United States has been divided
into thirteen districts for convenience.
The first five, with 100 stations, are
along the New England states and
as far south as Maryland. The sixth,
seventh and eighth, with sixty-two sta
lions are scattered along sthe south
eastern coast. The ninth district with
eight stations is on the gulf coast. The
tenth includes the eleven stations on
Lakes Erie and Ontario and the one
river station at Louisville. Districts
eleven and twelve have forty-nine sta
tiOns on the other three Great Lakes
There are 278 stations in all Last year
the men of these stations reported 84S
disasters in which forty-nine of the
vessels were total wrecks. They saved
$500 persons, and through no fault
of their own witnessed the loss of 90.
They saved property to the value of
SIS, 100000 and saw only $4,000, 900
destroyed. In the whole period of it's
existence the life saving service has
rescued lit 900 persons, has saved
nearly 100000 worth Of property and
reported $500 disasters
Clarifying Incidents.
The greater fortitude has been eX-
hibited by these life savers. There is
the story of the rescue of the crew
of British schooner by the men of
Coskata station, Nantucket Island. 1t
was twenty-six hours from the time
they began the work until they brought
in the crew of the wrecked vessel,
and they had worked the entire time
without rest and in a driving storm
with the temperature twenty degrees
below zero. Medals were awarded
those men, but they came too late for
one who contracted consumption and
died soon after, the bit of silver be-
ing given the mother of the hero.
There is the story of Jerome G..
Kiah, of Point aux Barques Station,
Michigan, who was the sole survivor
of sturdy crew that put out in a life
boat to try. and reach a wreck, and
OF the volunteer crew Of the North
West university whose Thanksgiving
game one November was a fight with
the elements OF ice and wind on Lake
Michigan. They dragged their boats
twelve miles and made three trips to
bring of the crew from a sinking
steamer

James, of Hull, Massachusetts, VINO

the report of the United States Life
Saving Service, which is a branch of
the treasury department. 1t is bust
nesslike volume in which. is tersely
set forth the work of the various dis
tricts and their stations. Yet in the
two dozen volumes that hold the re-
ports of the service there are more
deeds of heroism related than in any
other like number of books in exist
ence. The men who enlist do so with
the knowledge that it is not to go
against man or the war implements
that man has made, as does the recruit
for the army, but to contend with the
primitive elements of nature that, for
unnumbered centuries have defeated
man and have made sport of his in
ventions. 1t is for war against the
sea, the wind, and the fog, for crusade
against chance and for the rescue of
total strangers, mayhap of an alien
race.
Born of Tragedy.
1t was a great tragedy that precip-
itated the governments organization
of the life saving service. MasSachu-
sets had already led the rest of the
world-except Gilman this work, be-
ginning in the year 1886 when in the
famous Branch of'Grapes" tavern the
blind physician Noyes, called a meet
ing and organized the Humane Soci-
ETY. of the Commonwealth of Massa-
chusetts." They built huts along the
coast that year for the shelter of ship
wrecked folk who might come ashore
and in 1907 built life boats that were
first lin service att Cohasset. In 1897
the bark Mexico, loaded with immi-
grants, went ashore on Long Island
in a winter gale, and though fishing
boat brought off eight, the others
could not be reached and 115 persons
froze to death on deck in full sight
of the fires that helpless would-be
rescuers had lighted on shore. The re-
cital of this great tragedy by a New

glorious wofk done by the men of
Point au Bee .Ecios, Lake Michigan.
A steamer was going to pieces ten
miles from the station. People gath
cred on the shore and built with drift
wood against a bank the giant sign,
Life Boat Coming"
Through Forest.
A man on horseback pushed over
the hills and through the woods to the
station, hitched his weary horse to the
car and harnessed himself in with the
men TO hurry the apparatus back to
the vessel. Other horses met them
On the way. Men gathered with axes
to clear the forest trail, and after a de-
tour of many miles the car was drawn
by hand up steep hill and lowered
down a bluff that crumbled away at
every touch. From such point the
breeches buoy was worked and the
crew saved

the Duties Done.
Ry Erederlc J. .Iaskin.

'fThey that go down to the sea in
ships" today have the same winds and
rocks to face as did the Roman lead
ers on their gilded triremes, or Morse
adVentureTs in their hide covered
boats, but they have more people and
more appliances to help them in bTav-
ing these dangers. There are light
houses set along our coast lines on
the principal headlandS or on danger-
ous shoals TO warn the mariner and
direct his course by lights that burn
steadily or fash at regular intervals.
There are floating buoys painted in
divers fashions to mark treacherous
channels by day, and whistling or bell
buoys to signal by day and night, while
fog horns and sirens that can some
times be heard twenty miles shrek
persistently every minute during thick
weather. These are the warning infiu-
ences. But better than these is the
great life-saving service composed of
vigilant, daring men who patrol al
most the entire coast of the United
States day and night, year in and out,
to aid vessels in distress.
Lion Hearts, Hard Muscle.
In fair weather and in foul, these
men with lion hearts and muscles of
steel patrol. the rocky lodges or shift
ing sand dunes of the country'S coast
line with eyes ever alert for signals
of distress. There are occasional
needs of their services On fair days,
but it is when the fall and winter
storms harass the. coast and the sea
turns into a great savage creature
eager for prey that the real work be-
, gins. The patrol in some icy gale may
be suddenly aware of helpless
schooner being driven out of her
course in the tooth of a siXty-mile
wind, straight on the rocks where
she win surely be beaten TO pieces.
He quickly fires a Costan signal to
warn her Off the rocks or to promise
her aid, as quickly notifies his sta
ton, and then the work of heroes be-
gins. Clad in oilsIlins that are little
proof against a January gale, the keep
er of the station and his men run the
life-boat down TO. the beach, take out
the Lyle gun or mortar ready to fire
a line across the helpless vessel and
bring off her passengers and crew
either in a breaches buoy or life car.
Should the line fail, the rescue must
be made by the life-boat driven by
sturdy arms through heavy seas.
Heroism and Mo6esty.
The tales of heroism that may be
ted OF such rescues are among the
finest in the world Each year there

the teeth of storm They came at the
call of the citizens, who had exploded
the only cannon in that region in an
effort to send out a line to a stranded
vessel. The crew saved the people
from two steam barges that had gone
ashore, and went calmly back to their
station as if it were an everyday oc-
currence.
Over the Falls.
There is the story of the work of
the Louisville station, when the
James d. Parker" decided to go over
the falls during high water. The YES
sci with fO5 souls on board struck on
a rock just below the falls and had
hardly felt the impact before the boats
of the life-savers were at her side,
they having promptly followed over
the falls. They saved all on board in
an incredible short time.
Sometimes the fight proves discour-
aging. In one great October gale,
when the wind rose from fifty to
eighty miles an hour in a short while
a schooner beat to pieces in forty
minutes On the North Carolina coast,
and only one of the crew was washed
ashore The patrol overlooked the
accident because no light showed on
the ship, and the roar Of the storm
was too great for him to hear. A Cape
Cod crew was forced to see crew of
six drowned on a schooner once while
they were bending their energies to
save the men of two others that were
going to pieces. at the same time. On
occasions like this these strong men
of lion hearts have been known to
weep like children over the futility
of their efforts
Merit and Medals
The merit system has done much
to elevate the already noble calling.
Medals have been given TO the keep
ers and to their men for acts Of sig
nal bravery, and in two instances the
gold medal. the highest award in the
service, has been conferred On woTn-
en-Ida Lewis, of lighthouse fame, and
Mrs. Martha White, of Copalis. Wash
ington, who, unaided. saved three men
when a vessel went down of the coast,
and who patrolled the beach near her
home in every storm for years to
look for signs of distress. There are
