thing ABOVE decks and for three days
kept the little company Of eight in
terror, relieved only by Mrs. Hudson's
brave singing Of hymns and recount
ing Of Bible stories. The schooner
sprang a leak and all food was under
water Just as 1t seemed the vessel
must go to pieces steamer was
sighted.
The vessel sighted proved to be the
Snowdonia, and all were rescued in
lifeboats. Hardly were they aboard
when smoke began to pour from the
Clausen and soon the wreck was
ablaze.

HONOR FOR RoosEvELT's SON.
Theodore Jr., Among Those Who Al
tain Distinction at Harvard.


Cambridge, Mass. Dec. 12.-President
Arthur living Hadley, of Yale univers-
its addressed the Harvard students>last
night at the annual award Of academic
distinctions. The number of men who
reached high degrees In their work this
year are divided into three groups.
Prominent among the names in the
second group is that of F. II. Burr,
'09, captain of the football team. Other
men to attain distinction are Theo-
dore Roosevelt, Jr., G. E. Roosevelt, 4
member of the track team, and p D.
Smith, substitute half back Of the
varsity this fall.
In his address President Hadley
said:
"rwo generations ago the intellect
ual idol of the graduates and students
of most of our colleges was the lead
ing debater. Now it is no longer the de-
batter, but the athlete who occupies the
center Of the stage.
Whether we should be better off If
we had less athletic interest in our
colleges and universities is matter of
opinion. There Is, think, no difference
of opinion that we should be a great
deal better off if public attention were
more largely hxed on the intellectual
prizes and less upon the athletic ones"

PAT GROVE DENouNcEs SIN.
Former Outlaw Begins EvanssIistio
Work in Evanston Pulpit.

Chicago, Dec. 1l.-Pat Grove, Cne
former outlaw, assumed the evangel-
istic role last evening but, because of
the quality of his audience, his first
appearance in his new part was lack
ing In the Billy Sunday characteristics
with which it was expected he would
deck his platform utterances.
Before addressing a hundred persons
lat st. Marys hall in Evanston he had
been told that an exhortation to turn
from crime might not prove fitting or
effective under the circumstances, and
he was given rehearsal by Mrs. Fan
ME Meg. Woodmansee. county super
intendent Of the w. c.. T. U. prison
work, and all the sensational features
were pruned carefully.
The result was talk, more argu-
mentative than pleading, for the anti
saloon and the prison reform move
ments, delivered by self possessed,
undemonstrative, neat appearing man
who seemed not unaccustomed to oc-
cupying attention.
He did not become excited at any
time during HIS talk, and even the
maudlin interjections Of g. man slight
~ intoxicated failed to bring forth any
comment or criticism. The only time
his attention seemed to waver from his
lines was when his baby girl, in the
arms of his wife, started a discourse
OF her own and was carried from the
hall.
His hearers were surprised that
Grove did not go into the emotions
of his own life more than he. did They
had expected to hear heart throbs and
they had to be satisfied with an ad-
dress most of which might have come
from the lips of any Sunday school .su-
perintendent
He did not speak from manuscript,
but Mrs. Woodmansee, one Of the wom-
en- who prevailed upon him to begin
his altruistic endeavors, spent the af-
ternoon at his home listening and crit
icizing the speech he had prepared, so
that he had it well in mind when he
mounted the platform.
Grove was introduced as s'the once
world renowned criminal" and when he
arose to speak his auditors wondered
IL that well built, intelligent looking
man ever had worn the ball and chain.
He was much like an ordinary man
end his English and delivery were clear
and forcible.
In his opening remarks he told of
the reasons for his taking up a con-
sideration of the subject he had cflo-
