an INTEREsTING cAREER.
Sketch of Capt. Wallace L. Reed of
Life Saving Service.
To The Herald:

To The Herald:
Isabel Texas. April 24.-It is
pleasure to read goodly reports of
people whom we know more or less
intimately. and also to write of their
accomplishments. The subject of
this contribution is we'll known to
number of the people of Brownsville
and Of Cameron county
Captain Wallace L. Reed, of the
u. S. Life Saving Station on Brazos
Santiago, is a very genial, jovial and
oompanionable gentleman with re-
markable career in some respects. He
has had several most thrilling Incl
dents in his checkered life. He is not
b0astful, yet he has received many
encomiums for his extraordinary per-
f0rmanees in the life saving calling.
He is the youngest keeper in the serv-
ice, being but 50 years old. He was
born in New Jersey in 1874 and was
taken to sea with his father and the
family at the tender age of three
years. His father was captain of sew
eral deep water vessels, plying in
the West India Islands.
We clip the following interesting
article concerning him from the April
number Of Along the Coast, a per-
iodical published by JnO. W. Dalton,
Boston, Mass. which we think will
be well to reproduce in The Herald:
in the year 1882 the family land
ed at Pensacola, Florida. At that
time Captain Reed. the father, was
taken i'll with yellow fever. At the
age of twelve years the young man
went to sea again on his own account,
and has been a deep water and coast
ing sailor At the outbreaking of the
Spanish-American war in Cuba the
young sea rover enlisted as private.
He has served in the United States
Life-Saving Service for ten years on
the Atlantic and Gulf Coast. He was
surfman for seven and keeper for
three years. Captain Reed was in
the Galveston Station as surfman
during the hurricane of September s,
1900. The station was destroyed
and the captains wife and one surf
man lost their lives. Captain Reed
drifted all night with Captain Haugh-
land of San Luce Station, both On
cross tie. On the morning of the 9th
they found themselves on the beach
at Texas City ten miles west of Gal
weston. Both were nearly exhausted
after their fearful struggle for life.
During his years of service Captain
Reed has saved seven lives without
any help whatever. They were
saved at different times and places
by swimming to the imperilled and
taking them ashore. In 1904 he was
presented with a 500 gold watch for
helping to save the lives of four
United States Marines at Pensacola,
Florida He is married and has two
children. He is youthful warrior
of the sea who loves the life-saving
service despite its grave perils and
he says ne proposes to stay in the
service until he is set aside on ac-
count of old age"
Captain Reed was married to his
present wife-who was Miss Ada
Egly, daughter of VIM. Egly, of Isa-
bel, the light house keeper-last May
in Brownsville He numbers his
friends by his acquaintance. and is
well-posted on the duties of his office.
and the general affairs of civilized
life.

RIO GRANDE TRAIN HAD
A VERY NARROW ESCAPE

Rio Grande passenger train
No. I, en- route from Denver to
Grand Junction ON Sunday night
had II narrow escape from COM
plete annihilation ON that night
by being thrown from "a high
bridge that spans the Arkansas
river and only for the quick ac-
tion of Engineer Williams. the
engineer on the head engine, in
applying the emergency brakes
and stopping the train on the
very edge of the bridge ii would
have been plunged with its long
string of passenger cars, to the
icy waters of the river, fifty feet
below.
The approach of the bridge from
the east is hidden by a gulch and
for that reason the headlight of the
engine did not show the rails until
the engine headed straight for the
bridge a few feet away. Williams
saw several bright objects on the
bridge, applied the air and brought
the train to a stop on the very edge
of the bridge. When the train crew
went to investigate they found six
head of range cattle entangled by the
ties at various distances on the
bridge. They had been driven before
the fierce blizzard then blowing and
became entangled by the ties on the
bridge, being unable to extricate
themselves. 1t took the train crew
over an hour to clear the track
Had the head engine struck the
cattle in the position they were, 1t
would have undoubtedly resulted in
a very disastrous wreck and death
TO many passengers on the crowded
train.

roughly speaking, the backbone Of the
continent and follows the general line
of the Appalachian chain. This part
of the country is destined to rise even
higher, while the central plateau, from
the great lakes to the Gulf Of Mexico,
forming as it does one of the areas of
least resistance. will be submerged.
New York's Probable Fate.
And what of New York? The geoi-
| ogists tell us that the city lies on the
edge of an enormous fault, the Pali-
sades of the Hudson having been thrown
up by some giant organism of nature
while the land to the east of them
dropped, the actual line of breakage
being the bed of the Hudson. Any
further shock at this point would in
tenSify this life of the Palisades and
this drop of the land to the east of
them, SO the prospect is that some day
the harbor and the Hudson river will
rise and engulf the city.
The Rocky mountains, while COM
paratively distinct from the principal
ridge of the continent, are, in a sense,
a duplication of it. They were thrown
up by fearful cataclysm, which left
the depths of the Pacific in the hollow
beyond them. Many of them are evil
IDENTIFY volcanoes, quiet now, so far as
those in the United States are con-
cerned, but still active in Mexico, Cen.
trail America and Alaska. A shock of
vast extent would lift them even high
er, and all the prairies would sink inta
the gulf between them and the Allie
ghanies.
Thus will the union be disrupted
by an ocean separating the Pacific
states from what is left of the At
lantic states!
Shall we live to see it? Who can tell:
These cataclysms come without warn
ing, but it is reasuring to remember
that they come at intervals of tens of
thousands of years, and that the earth
has not yet cooled to point at which
living persons need lie awake worry
ing in dread of the giant spasm that
will mean the death agony of this old
earth of ours
