AN EXCITING EXPERIENCE
IN MID.0CEAN

We notice by Sundays Daily paper
that the steamer Mauretania, one of
the finest and most beautifully
equipped steamboats, plying between
New York and Liverpool, met with
quite serious accident during a
severe storm IN mid-ocean on the 18th
inst. in which one Of the propellers
was badly bent. resulting 10 shaking
up of the occupants of the boat. This
was the steam ship upon which our
townsman apd wife, Mr.. and Mrs. A..
P. Hirzy were making the trip from
Liverpool to New York. On their
arrival home we will probably know
the particulars OF the trouble. They
will also, without doubt, have great
many other interesting incidents to
tell their friends upon their return,
having spent about four months
abroad, visiting the most interesting
parts Of the old country. Their many
friends will be glad to welcome them
on their safe return home.

AN AMBULANCE
VERY MUCH NEEDED

Grand Rapids is very much in need
of an am bulance; one suitably equipped
for the conveyance with some degree
of comfort, of the sick and Injured
from their homes and railway station
to the hospital. Hardly day passes,
but what the hospital authorities
have occasion to use such a convey
ance; and strange to say, there is no
such conveyance at hand. When
patients from without, come here for
treatment or an operation. they are
loaded into an express cart. lumber
wagon, furniture van or any other old
rig that happens to be at hand and
can be pressed into service, and
carted to the River View hospital.
Now, while we do not wish to cast
any reflections or criticize the present
management of our hospital, as we
know that they are giving the public
the best that they can afford, we do
believe that for the proper conveyance
of the i'll and unfortunate, an ambu-
lance is indispensable. Perhaps there
is among our fellow townsmen, some
we'll to do philantropically inclined
individual, who will seize upon this
golden opportunity to confer bless
ing upon his fellow men by presenting
the hospital with this mnch needed
conveyance. If there be no one so
disposed, then let US by public SUBJ
scription if need be, provide that
which we are so much in need of and
can not get along without. so that
patients coming to our city hospital
for treatment can be properly taken
care of. Who will start the ball a
rolling?
