SAYINGS OF MARK TWAIN.
sr'sht Thinus That Are Rarely Cred
tied to tho Hun1orisf

Inere has been complaint that every
good story gets accredited to Mark
Twain without his having really de.
served 1t, but Professor Archibald
Henderson in his book MARK Twain
points out that actually many of the
best known common sayings first Gre
ated by Mark Twain are very rarely
credited to him. His sayings in
"Pudd'nhead Wilson's Calendar" such
rs the cauliflower is nothing but cab

generally known as written by Mark
Twain. but there are others of which
this is not true
Some of his Inst sayings are apropos
OF the cheerful custom of lying-for
instance: Truth is our most valuable
possession. Let us economics IT,"
Never tell lie-except for practice"
Is not SO well known as the more popu-
lar when in doubt tell the truth"
PROFESSOR Henderson comments that
OF The latter maxim Mark Twain. de.
clared that he never expected it to
he applied to himself. 1t was for
other people. When he was in doubt
himself he used sagacity. Perhaps his
best summary is: Never waste a lie!
You can't tell when you may need IT,"
A catchword emanating from Mark
Twain is, "Be virtuous and you will
be eccentric" Another is that "there
isn't a parallel Of latitude but thinks
1t would have been the equator If it
had had its rights" There is some-
thing peculiarly American in his warn
Ing to girls not to marry-that is, not
to excess. To Professor Henderson
Mark Twain made remark likely to
rank with the best of his sayings now
that 1t has been published. Professor
Henderson was advised before under
going a surgical operation. Console

that he Is getting paid for It,"

THRILLING
RIVER RIDE
In The STORM
George Pierce Tells How Skiff
Was SWamped With
Three Occupants
TWO SANK AND ARE
BELIEVED DROWNED

George Pierce of III Maryland
avenue whom was it was feared for
awhile was lost in the Delaware river
during the storm yesterday, return
ed to his home late last night almost
exhausted from his experience but
was able to 90 to work as an eleva-
tor conductor at the DUPONT building
this morning.
Pierce with crowd of young men
and women had been down the river
In a launch and they we're returning
TO Wilmington when the storm over
took them. They were almost home
when they saw three people in a
skiff waving for aid. Pierce steered
the launch in their direction and fas-
tened a line to the skiff when the
wind and waves became so strong
that the launch was nearly swamped
and could make but little headway.
The launch had travelled about half
a mile when il was overtaken by a
Wilson Line steamer. Those on the
launch did everything in their power
TO get out OF the path of the steamer
which apparently did not hear their
whistle. They finally succeeded In get
ting clear but the skif was struck by
the swell OF the steamer Pierce says.
Just before it was struck the man
in the skiff put his arms about a
small boy who was with him and
jumped. Pierce said that he thought
they we're drowned, as he saw neither
come to the surface The other boy
was struck by piece of timber and
knocked unconscious. He was found
floating near the shore last night by
John Galleger. On the front of the
skiff we're the letters, A No. 5.
The men in the skiff described by
Pierce are thought TO be Andrew Con-
tint Frank Incolino and Joseph Ca
vallo The latter was rescued last
night but the former two are believed
to be drowned.
