Overboard
 at Sea

To be lost overheard on a dark night, hundreds of miles south of the Cape of Good Hope, with a strong wind blowing, and to live to tell the tale, does not happen to many sailors. William Galloway of the crew of the British ship Kilbrannan had such an experience several years ago, and told cisco newspaper of the time, from which the following account Is ta- ken:
 Galloway Is brown-faced Scotch laddie who says "mither" for mother, and everything about him, from the frayed bottoms of his jean trousers to the wiry-looking tufts of hair which peep from beneath the front peak of his little foreand-aft cap, betoken the rollicking. happy-go-lucky deep-sea sailor boy. Of his adventure, First Mate William Coalheet said:
 Tt was eight o'clock in the even- ing. We were fifty-fve days out from Philadelphia, bound for Hiogo. Japan, and near latitude forty-four one south, longitude fourteen forty-four east. A strong easterly wind was blowing. It was dark and bitter cold, and the sea was running very high.
 Galloway was halfway up the rat lines, unlocking a block from the main-sheet, when the ship gave lurch and he fell into the sea-
 "The captain threw him life buoy The ship was brought up in the wind as quickly as possible, and boat lowered and manned. took command of her.
 "We heard the boy shout as we were lowering the boat, but he had yelled himself hoarse, and we had nothing to guide us as we pulled aimlessly about in the heavy sea.
 We pulled round for over an hour, and as we lost sight of the ship sev- eral times. and the night was getting rougher and thicker, I was about to give up the search in despair. when we heard feeble moan. and straining our eyes, saw Galloway clinging to the lifebuoy, almost under our bow.
 We soon had him on board, but 1t took some skipping and rubbing to put warmth into his rigid limbs."
 Galloway said to the reporter: 'T am a good swimmer, and managed to ride the big seas that came along. but It was terribly cold, and my legs be- gan to feel like lead. It was a good job for me that the water was so black, or l never could have seen the white lifebuoy as 1t came to me on the crest of a wave.
 I got 1t under my arms and stopped padding. 1 was tired out I shouted as long as l could, but my voice grew husky.
 The albatrosses and mollyhawks swooped down on me, and I kept wa wing my arms, thinking every moment that one of them would drive its beak through my skull
 T lost all hope and thought of moth- CT and my sisters in Glasgow. Then 1 saw the white hull of the mates boat. l tried hard to shout. They heard me and was soon hauled on board.
 "The captain gave me medicine. and with plenty of warm blankets and hot coffee, l soon began to feel my sell again. American Home Month ly.

week. The Gamblers" Charles
Kleins gripping play, which hold :
the record for long runs among serl-
Gus dramas of the season just passed.
is tho attraction next Saturday ght,
December 80.
The story of the play involves 4
debonaire young freebooter who has
come into the management of his
staid old fathers bank. and who, in
his effort to expand the business. re.
sorts to various questionable prac-
tices. There Is a woman in the case,
the wife of the prosecuting attorney
of the federal government, who was
once the sweetheart Of the youpe
broker, and whose husband Is given
to posing AS an infallible moralist.
and he allows his unjust Jealousy to
override his sense of legal Justice. Mr.,
Klein illustrates the axiom that there
Is no gain without risk. He shows
that men and women cannot make
tremendous gains without making
tremendous losses and that success in
fame and fortune does not always
mean real success in life.
