warn them against the dangers Of the
ice coating on the scow's deck, which
they must cross to reach the cabin in
the stern.
He took his daughters arm when
she and Hauscrucker arrived, and told
the latter to stay where he was for a
moment. Capt Rice helped Mrs.
Block to the deck and led her toward
the cabin. She said she could go the
remainder of the distance in safety,
and started to run toward the cabin.
1t was pitch dark, and she slipped

screams and the splash were instantly
followed by her fathers efforts to save
her. He threw off his coat and jumped

Hauscrucker stood in the dark amid
unfamiliar surroundings, not knowing

Rice told him TO get rope and throw

grope blindly for any sort of line,
and when he found one Capt. Rice and
his daughter had been carried by the
tide far out of reach of the scow.
Cries for help from Hauscrucker
were family answered from the black
ness over the river, where father and
daughter were drowning, and also
brought delayed aid from boatmen in
the neighborhood. Craft put out all
along the shore and vainly sought for
the missing couple, but found no trace
of either. A Weehawken ferryboat
added its passengers to the excited
witnesses OF the efforts at rescue.

BAG O. BUGS STlRS UP CAR.
Fine poings in Subway When Black
Satchei Was Opened.

New York.-Somebody's collection
of living butterflies, moths, bugs and
insects came nearly causing panic
on a south-bound subway train.
An elderly man, who looked like
e college professor, and who was &C.
companied by pretty girl of Is,
arose from a cross seat to alight at
Columbia University station. AS the
couple went, small, black bag was
discovered on the seat they had oc-
cupied.
A young man made after them, but
was assured by che girl that it was
not her property. Before her com
panion could be appealed to, he had
left the train, which started Off.
The dozen other passengers in the
train, most of whom were women, be.
came curious as to the contents OF
the bag, and 1t was opened. 1t was
crammed full of flying insects.
Given their freedom they filled
every corner of the car. Women
shrieked and jumped on the seats,
holding their dresses tightly around
them.
The conductor had the passengers
transferred to another car, and the in.
sects had undisturbed possession OF
tho first one.

HIS LIFE A LUCKY ONE.
Youngster at Least Had the Gr:at
Virtue Of Cheerfulness.


The following is a genuine essay by
a ten-year-old boy:
MY life has been very lucky oYN
When l was three years old | fell
downstairs and cut my head. When |
was five years old / was looking at
some hens and dog bit my leg. When
| was eight l went with my brother in
the trap and the horse fell and threw
us out of the trap; my brother lit on
his feet and lit on the horses back.
Last year was playing, and ran into
a surrey and cut my eyebrow, and it
has left mark. One day went into
the slaughter house and big sheep
ran after me and knocked me down.
| have had happy life"
This cheerful acceptance of what
are usually regarded as the ills of life
reminds the writer of an old school
fellow who took part in the fight at
Elandslaagte at the beginning of the
South African war. After the engage
ment he was taken to the hospital at
Pietermaritzburg. AS soon as he was
able he wrote home and sent his peo-
pie the tunic he had worn ia the bat.

The officials of the department OF
agriculture at Washington are giving
much attention to the matter of soil
fertility in the United States. The re-
suit of the investigation is interesting
as serving to show that the farmers
chances are not lessened by any de-
crease in such fertility OF the farming
lands of the country, placed at S3S, 591,-
IA acres, it is stated that the yield of
cereals has increased, AMI the conclu-
sion reached is that soil resources are
practically inexhaustible. Whatever
lack exists in some respects may be
supplied through the use of fertilizers,
,f which there is an abundance. This,
taken in connection with the improved
methods Of farming coming into use so
:apidly, is assurance of indefinite pros
perity for agriculture.

It is said of Harry Barnato, the
South African diamond king" who
lied in London a few days ago, that he
never grew up" to his wealth, his ex-
,enditures being curious mingling Of
extravaganza and penuriousness. The
same was true, it is related, OF his
brother, Barney Barnato, who died
some time ago. AS an example OF
Harry's popularity it is related that
ne once kept a $4,000 automobile idle
or months because he could not find

fought his tailor in the courts for
months over 36 cents. He allowed his

Tor drinks" without any return. This
characteristic is probably accounted
Tor by the fact that the brothers were
very poor in their youth and had to
count their pennies. The habit of
thought calling for careful expenditure
small things became so fixed that it
iever left them.

Sexes in Antauonisn,

Woman suffrage has been carried 10
an extreme in Buenos Ayres. An Ital-
ian woman describes the situation in
the Argentine city: "A sort of recin,
rocal fear seems To raise an insk
mountable barrier between the men
and women. Whether at home. in tho
street. at banquets and public prom.
enades, in the theatcrs or schools. the
two sexes, as IL by tacit understand
ing, keep each other at q respectful
distance. What most strikes the for
eigncr who walks in Buenos Ayrog
whether he traverse the narrow street
where the traffic of foot passengers is
more crowded than in either LondA
or Paris, or saunter through the broad
avenues where tram cars, carriages.
automobiles pass and repass each
other, is the absence OF woman.
She acts. not as an associate OF man.
but as rival. and In the same houso
we find an antagonism existing be.
tween husband and wife, mother and
son." The social reformers Of Argen,
tina are beginning TO think that WON.
en- are being too highly educated. They
neglect their children and household

The monument is in the form of a

block of stone, upon the four faces
of which are bas-reliefs symbolical Of
tho departments OF human activity
which have been most affected by the
discovery of oil-heat, light, power and
locomotion. The base rests upon a
stylobate of three high steps. The
stylobate is in the center of a paved
area surrounded by parapet having
at the four corners salient masses,
upon the outer surface of which are
to be cut inscriptions telling Of the
history of the discovery of oil by Col.
Drake and of the evolution of the in.

raised upon sodded plateau and is to
be approached on all four sides A
flights of Is steps. "
The dimensions of the monument
are as follows: Plateau, 81 feet

Mr.. Cortelyou is perhaps right in
thinking the disbursements of govern
ment money should be passed on by
competent general head before they go
to congress to be voted on, just as
would be done in any well-managed
business house before funds were paid
out, but what reason has he to think
that a joint committee of revision
would be any more free from pressure
than the present appropriations COM
mittees? What would seem to be
needed is a finance minister OF a com.
mittee made up OF men skilled in finan-
cial affairs. But, asks the Indianapolis
Star, would congress ever vote to
have its chance for getting appropria-
tons hindered in this way?

Extravaganza and self-indulgence are
barriers as mighty as those of poverty
against the nobler qualities of life. Hard,
indeed, is it for a rich man to enter into

confined to the haunts of the poor Often
times it is even more dense in the home
of the rich, aye, in spite of the luxury; nav,
