matter was finally referred to a sub
committee consisting OF Messrs.s: Pol-

out that II would he unwise to take
any action in regard to the Hirshberg
measure, until after a subcommittee
of which he is chairman. had deter

were rather closely interviewer. though
such might not appear to be the case
on the surface.
The committee recommended en-
ployment OF an additional clerk in the

last May. with the Holy Ghost and Us

The men came from the yacht Cor

and thirteen women, all survivors of
the Kingdom. The Coronet disabled
and short of provisions, Is helpless off
Cape Hatteras.
Captain Perry and his men left the
Coronet four days ago to bring aid
to the yacht. Their boat also was
short OF food when it left the Coronet.
and when they reached here the sup
ply was entirely exhausted.

Our religion forbIds us talking
about our sufferings,' said Captain
Perry. The Coronet had her main

cut by gale encountered week ago.
We lay to. TO make repairs, and will
continue on our journey when they

The Kingdom was wrecked off the

the Kingdom was not long in breaking

We sailed for the coast of South

shall not talk about them.
Brave Women Aboard.
We suffered, of course, but suf-
ferings are a part of our lot. We suf-
fered in silence. the women on the

not more patient, than the men.
These are real women on that boat.
They know the world and they know
the things that try ones soul. When
the Kingdom sank. many of us were

was no panic.
Hunger? Yes. that was one Of the

Captain Perry said the Coronet will

| Mr.. Henry n. Farmer. keeper of
| Riverside Park, and president of the
| Clay Ward Actives, had this impress
ed on him last night when he ap-
peared before the council committee
on grounds and buildings.
1t so happens that Mr.. Farmer I'M
hosomed himself to- bluecoat some
evenings ago. and thereby hangs the
tale.
The story runs thus: Mr.. Farmer
took exception to the presence of some
poles on a small park over which he
has Jurisdiction at Beach and Cary
streets because Mrs. IT. F. Herndon,
fof EOS South Pine street, president
OF the Chapman branch of the Wo-
mans Temperance League of Amer
lea, had failed to get written permit
to conduct lawn party there. He
then proceeded to knock down the
poles on which Mrs. Herndon and her
friends proposed to hang lanterns for
the party. When Mrs. Herndon ar
rived on the scene later and to her
great surprise found things upset, she
was naturally very much incensed
and particularly so when Mr.. Far
mer insisted that she produce a writ
ten permit from Mr. Batkins, chair
man of the grounds and buildings
committee, instead Of the verbal per
init. And even after Mr. Batkins
had been landed over the phone and
Strengthened out matters. Mr.. Far
mer declined TO assist the ladies' in
fhe setting of the poles again, 1t
was alleged
Behaved Very Ugly"
10 use the exact language Of Mrs.
Lar Wv as,t "a
wrote to Mr.. Batkins. the Riverside
Park keeper was furiously mad on
the evening in question and behaved
very ugly.
IT seems. though. that things might
have been smoothed down without
action by the committee had not Mr.
Farmer talked rather freely to a po-
liceman regarding the affair several
evenings after the lawn party. which
occurred on the night OF July 2s.
1t developed that while he was but
tonholing the bluecoat, telling him all
about 1t. a young man CHANGED by
on his bicycle, and. as luck would
have IT. punctured tire few feet
away. He began tinkering with the
bike and while doing so overheard the
park keepers remarks. This very
same young man was friend Of
Mrs Herndon and he natuAelly told
her what he had heard.
Mrs. Herndon Gets Busy
This prompted Mrs. Herndon to
lose no more time in taking the case
up with the proper authorities.
The mater was aired at some length
last night before the committee, MIR.
Farmer defending his action on the
ground that he was technically with
in his rights. while Mr.. Batkins. the
chairman, took the view that discre-
ton would have been the better part
Of valor. Incidentally he took occa-
sion TO severely reprimand Mr. Far
mer for his behavior.
The committee as a whole directed
Mr.. Farmer to apologize to Mrs. Hern-
don and to lose no time about It,
Mr.. Farmer promised that he would
do SO.
