SAVE BOYS FROM
DEATH At REhOBOTh

REHOBoTH. Del, Aug. 9.-Loutrcil
Tlmanus. Of Baltimore. made heroic
rescue at the Y. NJ, c. A. camp here on
Tuesday.
Dick Heiner and Ellsworth Buck, both
OF Baltimore, ventured out for sail. The
day was stormy and after an hour the
wind rose and the waves were in fury.
They lost control Of the boat and by a
spy-glass could be seen struggling with
their craft. Timanus quickly reached his
boat and sailed out to them. He could not
bring passengers and boat through so
high a sea. so he said they should come
ashore in his boat and he would try to
tow in the broken boat. After two hours
in the crippled boat he finally managed
to bring her to shore, but not until those
on shore had grown much worried over
his delay, for it was dark"

MRS. CASTLE MAY
NOT BE TRIED
By United Press Leased Special wire.

By United Press Leased Special Wire
NEW YORK. Aug. 9.-It is prob
able that Mrs. Neville Castle. the west
ern woman who shot William b. Craig
attorney. in the elevator at the Wal
Astoria last week, will never be
brought to trial.
When the case was called before Mag
istrate Butts in Jefferson Market Court
this morning. Mrs. Castles attorney
asked for a further postponement until
tomorrow. promising the magistrate
that at that time Mrs. Castle would
waive preliminary hearing ana consent
to being held for the grand jury.
He also promised that he would Sc
cure bail for Mrs. Castle this AFTERNOON
bond being given by close personal
friend OF Craig. who Is especially anN-
ious TO drop theproceedings ana tnus
avoid further notoriety
Captain Henry Harrison Scott, OF the
United States Army stationed at fort
Morgan, Ala. who married a daughter
of Rear Admiral Sampson, Of the nevy
appeared in court with his sister Mrs
Castle.
Before court met, Captain Scott, Craig
and MAGISTRATE Butts held a conference
al which II was arranged that the case
was to 60 over until tomorrow and that
Mrs. Castle would then be bound over
10 the grand jury. II is hardly likely
that Craig win appear as a witness be-
I fore the grand jury but will allow th'
case to end there. His action in getting
a bondsman for Mrs. Castle presage'
such a move on his part.
AS soon as the grand Jury proceed
ings are dropped. il is probable Mrs
Castle viii go to Fort Morgan to be tn
guest of her brothers family.
The charges Mrs. Castles attorne.
threatened TO bring against Craig ar
TO be dropped and the case ended.
