Other Queer Cases

WHILE on a sinking and dismasted craft
which drifted helplessly for nearly three
weeks, the crew of the schooner r. B. Leeds,
in the summer of 1900, sustained life by eating
the water melons which formed their cargo
Sugar probably saved the lives of the Pass
of Balmaha's crew few years ago, while bound
with big cargo of it from Java for New York.
Somebody Numbered in providing the supplies.
Instead of sufficient food to last five months,
she weighed anchor with scarcely enough for
two, and to cOmplicate the situation this dis
covery was not made until the provisions were
down to barely sufficient quantity to last for
thirty days When the equator was crossed
and the ship had still months ruin to her
destination, the last biscuit had disappeared.
Finally as last resort the men opened some
of the sugar bags which filled the hold This
was mixed with rum and water and, although
a disgusting mess, it served to sustain life at
least Many of the crew became i'll from the
nauseating makeshift and lay helpless on the
deck. They were in the last extremity when
finally rescued after three weeks, during which
time not morsel of nourishing food had passed
their lips
At one stage on her long run from Surabaya,
Java, similarly laden with sugar the British
steamer Foreland struck terror to the hearts
of the residents one lonely coast. In the
gulf of Alden, for over two hundred miles along
southern Arabia, she posed as a flaming demon
OF the deep. She had two hundred and sixty
baskets of sugar for Philadelphia The un-
pleasant discovery was made that the supply
of coal was exhausted when the Foreland was
sea was very rough, and the tramp, without
sufficient steam to insure steerage way. was
In position of grave danger The only ap-
parent remedy was to burn a portion of the
sugar cargo. 1t required eightv-five tons of it
to get the ship into Alden

Miners as Stevedores

A LARGE sum of money. nearly one-half
as much as the shipment was worth, was
required to get the asphalt out of the hold of
the steamship Turquoise, which arrived at
Baltimore from the island of Trinidad in
1901
Captain Thomas astounded his consignees
by requesting miners to unload the ship. Il

1t appeared that the Turquoise had aboard
twentysix hundred and forty tons of the
curious mineral. On its passage north the ship
ran into torrid wave. Anyone who has
walked on an asphalt pavement in midsummer
knows how heat affects it. 1t was found that
the chunks of asphalt had solidifed into one
firm mass, stretching the entire length of the
hold. The Captain remarked that he was carry
ing " a blarsted boulevard up to the States
An inspection by the consignees proved
conclusively that the call for miners was well
founded. and little while afterward a shaft
was sunk in the cargo, and force of men
with picks and shovels found plenty to occupy
them during the ensuing three weeks.

cuLTIvATING COMMERCE.
Systematic Boosting Campaign of Los

[Los Angeles Times.]

An ambitious and attractive project for the further unbuilding of Los An geles and it's hundreds of thousand square miles of tributary territory, goes into operation with the new year of the Los Angeles Chamber, of Com merce, which opened with it's annual banquet and the inauguration of Presi- dent George. H. Stewart and the other officers. The year is to be an era of excursions to near and distant points some for business, some for pleasure -all designed to knit the people of the great Southwest closer together in good fellowship and in trade rela- tions.
 The excursion to Imperial Valley will be the first of the series, It is to be followed soon by one around the Kite-shaped track. Later it is pro posed to send one up into the San Joaquin valley, to Corcoran and the Big Field ranch, and another up the Coast Line as far as San Luis Obispo. Then possibly will come trips to the gold fields of Nevada, to the rich re- gions of Southern Utah, to Arizona and New Mexico, to the States of Sonora and Chihuhua in old Mexico, to Lower California, and into such other districts as by geographical loca- ton and connection by transportation

"For a two-year-old town, " writes President H. H.

Boom mining camps have grown faster in population, but no oth- CT frontier town has been so solidly established from the start. It usually takes two big fires to get a pioneer town into decent shape.

A thick coat of whitewash has been spread oyer the naval board of construction and a black coat of tar over Reuterdahl by the Senate Committee. Admirals responsible for any defects of battleships that may exist testi- fly that Reuterdahl's charges are false, but in the same breath declare that the same criticisms were made in official reports by two Lieutenant- Commanders to the Secretary of the Navy. If Reuterdahl is a liar, how about the Lieutenant Commanders {? The testimony of bureau chiefs may be convincing to Senate Committees, but a mere general denial by a defendant is not usually taken as conclusive proof of the falsity of an indictment.
