Deserts Bachelor Club TO Wed:
Given Hdzing By Aute Members

Philadelphia, Pa, Oct. 22-Because
he deserted a bachelors club without
giving official notice. the bride of
Frank A. Reid, Of Elmira, N. Y. was
kidnapped at the West Philadelphia
Station yesterday and sent to New
York with one of the members while he
was kept a prisoner by thirty of his
old pals" from Chester. Pa
So hilarious was the alleged merry
making when Reid learned that his
bride had been stolen from him and
sent away that the policemen of the
T~hirty-ninth street and Lancaster ave-
nue. station were called to put an end
to the disturbance.
Reid has not seen the joke yet and
promises to swear out warrants against
the whole crowd.
Reid formerly lived In Chester and
was a member of a bachelors club
there. Recently he and Miss Cecilia
Pearson, of Brooklyn. eloped and went
South. The news reached Chester.
and James T. Wilson. one of the lead
ers Of the organization, learned that
the pair would reach Philadelphia on
their return at IL 30 o'clock yesterday

club members, he hurried to Philade!-

500 workers, the largest meeting OF
the kind here in the last four years.
Chairman Moore, of the democratic
committee, said today that the meet
ing vas a marvel, and that the reports
received we're a revelation. He pre-
dicted that Representative Gauss will
make great gains, and that he will
win.
Taggart was here yesterday again
confering with his workers and get
ting them active. 1t was charged that
he and Crawford Fairbanks, Of Terre
Haute, were getting behind Represen-
tative Gauss in hopes of gaining o n
troll of the local organization, but it
was asserted on Taggart's behalf that
he wants to show the people of the
state that the democrats can make a
winning fight here.
Representative Gauss is making no
attempt to conceal his pleasure over
the activity of Taggart and his friends.
He says the newspapers of Indiana
polls are opposed to him, but that he
will fight them to last ditch even if
it costs him a victory.
He asserts that no brewery will ev-
err control him. Representative Gauss
a y that his campaign assessment
was $1,000, and that when he finishes
the campaign he will not have spent
to exceed $4,000.

GAUSS NOW CONFIDENT OF

Indianapolis, Oct. 22.-That Nation
al Committeeman Tom Taggart has
more assumed the leadership of
the democracy of Indianapolis and
that he is to be the big noise of the
municipal campaign, as far as his own
party is concerned, was admitted by
politicians on every hand here today.
When Representative Charles A.
Gauss was nominated for mayor two
months ago he was heralded from one
end of the state to the other as the
man who had smashed the Taggart
machine. 1t was printed in newspa-
pers in every locality that the power
of Taggart was broken and that he
would no longer continue as a CONTROL
ing factor III his party.
BY some unknown process Repre-
sentative Gauss and Taggart have
been brought together and Taggart is
to be the power behind the throne in
directing the fight in the closing
rounds. He seems to be as firmly
seated in the saddle as during the
days when he was mayor.
Presence Helps Gauss.
1t was conceded that his presence
has helped Representative Gauss. and
it was noticeable around the betting
boards that there were no more offer

A Freight Steamer Brings a
Tale of Suffering in the
Gulf of Alden.
EXHAUST FOOD AND WATER
WHEN STRENGTH HAD DESERT
ED ALL THE FIFTY PEOPLE ON
THE SHIP, THEY CLOSELY EYED
EACH OTHER.

Boston, Mass, OCT. 2Z.-Deatn rom
thirst and starvation or by a more hor-
rible method was near fifty men and
women huddled in a little vessel when
the British steamship Welsh Prince.
Capt. Sheppard brought them succor.
News of the rescue came to Boston
with the arrival of the Walsh Prince
from China. Chief Officer st. John
declares the sufferers were nearly
driven to cannibalism when the Welsh
Prince, forced miles from it's ourse
by gales, CHANGED to fall in with the
craft.
The vessel was sighted in the gulf
of Alden. 1t vas acting strangely. It's
canvas was not properly set and it
appeared in trouble.
Men and women were leaning over
the deck rails. Several men were
trying to launch a boat, but they lack
ed the strength. At least twenty men
swayed at the tackle and worked on
the rail and dropped into the "a.
Three of the strangers crew tumbled
into the boat, dragged themselves to
the seats, and began slowly to row to-
ward the steamship.
Rowers Faint from Weakness.
AS the boat approached the freight
er's officers saw the oarsmen were
weak and haggard. Presently the
boat crept close to the high sides Of
the Welsh Prince. Two of the men
toppled from the seats and lay mo-
tionless. The third looked up at the
throng gathered at the ships rail and
tried to speak.
His voice could not carry the forty
feet. Chief Officer ST. John shouted
to a deck hand to fetch a bucket of
water, which was lowered. Some Of
the water stopped and spattered the
mans face. A faint vail came from
his parched lips and be reeled as If
about to fall. Another cupful Of wat
er splashed from the unsteady bucket,
now close above his head. It struck
his face and some trickled between
his lips.
Fight for Bucket Of Water.
When the bucket landed in the boat
he thrust his head into it and. revived
by a copious draught, reused his COM
panions, scooping water into their
faces with his hands. Like mad men
the s~arthy trio fought to immerse
their heads in the bucket.
Other buckets of water were hur-
sent down. so that each might
his fill. The men then hating
ly told their story. For weeks they
had been buffeted by gales on a pas
sage from Africa to Arabia Headway
toward their destination was impossi-

Gains closely followed the gales till
the vessel was unable to approach the
land. For ten days they had been
without water. many of the large par

sufferer, and so this horror was
spared them.
Water and food were supplied to
the vessel by the Welsh Prince.
