shipmen died of their own volition or In

all during the night the shores near by

trio was safe at a point farther down
upon the shore.
a mighty cheer broke forth. Annap-
oils seldom heard such a cheer as that
1t was loud; it was joyous. and came
from the heart. But it was false. Slow
ly it died to a murmur then a moan.
Hope Against Hope
All was not right after all What
could be done. Nothing but to wait.
And while hundreds Of boatmen were
dragging the waters in the vicinity of
Back Creea, but a few miles from the
Academy, thousands still lined the
shores hoping against hope, praying that
all yet might be well and that this
small band Of merrymakers might be
safe and saved.
1t was shortly after noon yesterday
when Mrs Bowyer and the two mid
sLipmen boarded the regulation Acad-
envy cutter and sailed out There was
barely, a breeze-not even cats paw
and the boat moved slowly. But as they
proceeded in more open water the breeze
got brisker and the joy Of it all filled
the hearts Of the three sailors with the
very action OF living
on the way out the trio passed
another cutter coming in which was
filed with midshipmen. There was an
exchange Of courtesles. Mrs Bower
waved her handkerchief and the mid
shipmen raised their hands. All were
smiling.
That was all They were seen no
more in the light of life.
Cutter Sighted.
Later in the evening a passing boat
man saw the cutter with sails fully set
anchored about a mile out This ap-
peared to be strange. The boatman in
vestigated and upon approaching the
cutter found the white coat of a mid
shipman aboard. Mrs. Bower had
sailed in her bathing suit covered by a
long cloak An effort had been made
By telephone to secure a larger party
for the event But it was unsuccessful.
None would or could come. SO the trio
decided TO sail by themselves.
When the lone boatman found some
thing was awry he hoisted the cutters
anchor and towed the boat back TO the
Academy. Then the alarm went forth.
Immediately a swarm of people, in
boats and on land was alive with ac-
tivity. A hundred Srapplors went upon
the scene; it was determined that the
trio had been drowned. Bat every ef-
fort met with no success.

= A MOTHERS RING.

During the anti-saloon crusade In
Chicago woman sent this letter to the
editor Of one o6 the newspapers:
Dear Sir-WiN you please give this ring
or whatever it will bring to help put the
saloons out Of Chicago when they have
the Nlection? You know what is the best
society or fund for the work. leave that
to you. From one who hopes to see the
day for my children's sake.
When the letter was opened a worn
little hoop Of gold, evidently a wedding
ring. fell out.
She had sent woman's dearest treas
ure, one Of the last things she win will
ingly give. for the sake Of a cause.
That simple little jewel was worth
millions to her, say, on her wedding
day. when her young heart swelled
stood for her future.
The trinket stood for the young hus-
band who had won her heart, for the
little home that was to be. for the little
ones who would come to that home
all that a woman's heart yearns for and
cares for.
Read between the lines.
Do you not see the pathos In that
last sentence? Somewhere in the years
that are gone her beautiful castles Of
hope had fallen to the earth.
For my children's sake"
Who was it? Was it the husband
who failed her. or a son that went down
In the depths to break the mothers
heart. or a daughter dragged into the
slough OF despond by one who prom
ised to love and cherish?
The letter was unsigned.
The writer made no bid for notoriety
There was no hope OF personal gain
1t was the simple offering over again
Of the widows mite. only the ring,
circlet that could be bought at any jew
elry store for less than $1o-just ring
that once had linked two lives.
Only ring.
But because OF the innocent pathos
OF the message and the gift it is small

Of life and limb. The eastern idea, if
carried out as planned ought to make
the Fourth worth while both to anti
cipate and to remember. Historical
pageants representing bits Of American
history, parades, orations, and the like
are to fill up the day. with an exhibit
ton of fireworks under expert super
vision In the evening. The embryonic
voter may regard such a program as
decidedly mollycoddle. but thousands
of mothers the country over will bless
the man who thought it out. If Goth
am has the courage of its convictions
why not other cities? If the country at
large could be converted to so wise a
reform, there would be fewer aching
hearts the fifth of the coming July
than there were a year ago."

words, and the crusade for a sane

DISTURBANCE.


''Why should this happen to me?
Why should l be selected for this try
ing ordeal. this narrowing experienced"
That has been the cry OF sorrow
stricken souls always and everywhere.
Why?
What is the meaning Of disturbance
in human life? Has it some ministry :?
Surely. The universe is so built and
man is so built that only through dis
turbance can progress come or peace.
To illustrate:
In the springtime the plowshare tears
up the earth. AS the plow goes rip
ping through the soil and the harrow
is used to rake and maltreat it one
might fancy the soil to say: why this
disturbance? Why select me for this
mistreatment?"
The answer OF the protest is the
harvest Of the autumn.
And again: How did you get the
house in which you live? Some man
went out to the woods and hewed
through the wood, and the plane went
over it. And the forest might have
complained, saying: why this dis
turbance? Why select me to suffer-"
The answer to the protest is the roof
tree over your head.
And again: How can you rear the
stately column save as the dynamite
attacks the quarry and the granite saw
and the machine polisher 60 over 1t?
AS you create this disturbance the
quarry might cry out. why me?"
Aud the answer to the cry is the fine
granite shaft.
Even so is human life.
Were there no disturbance, no pain,
| no sorrow. no bereavement, there
would be neither progress nor better
ment-and men would die Of the mo-
notony of living.
l knew a rich woman who lost her
| only child. She cried out against God.
But when her anguish was over she
began to plan a memorial to her boy.
She built home for crippled children.
l knew a man who lost his fortune.
| He was wild over his loss. But when
he had pulled himself out Of the wreck
he began to plan a new life. He prof.
tied by past mistakes. The man did
not regain his fortune. but he regained
his life. And his new life was cleaner
and happier than the other
| l knew a young man who was beg
CARED by the failure Of his fathers
business. At first he was savage and
rebellious. Afterward he pulled him
self together and made manly man.
Disturbances.
| At first the chastisement is grievous
but afterward 1t worketh the peaceful
| fruit of Righteousness and progress.
