tanic passengers who jumped into
the sea wearing life preservers
were swallowed up in the cold
waves.
A preserver is, however, a valu.
able thing to have on, If you are
hanging on to the stern of life
boat or a raft. Several passen-
gers encased in life preservers
were saved when they floated
within reach of a raft or boat.
Another good way is to wear
your wife's nightgown.
When the captain tells you that
there is no danger, don't place
too much belief In his remarks;
hang around near the lifeboats.
Many women passengers of the
Titanic who rushed out at the
first shock were treasured by the
officers, who naturally and wisely
wished to prevent panic, and re-
turned to their berths to be
drowned.
If you're a steerage passenger
when the boat is sinking make a
first cabin passenger of yourself
by slipping through the gilded
doorway. and make noise like
an owner.
Abraham Hyan, a steerage pas
senger from England, saved his
life by rushing up to the first
cabin deck and crowding into a
lifeboat.
William L. Sloper of Hartford,
Conn, clad in long white night
robe, rushed up to the deck, and
in the hurry and absence of a
beard he was mistaken for a
woman and hustled into a life
boat.

1t led to the foot of the mountain

from the camp or roads at the
lake. AS baggage had been left
at the lake camp, it was decided
that Howard return cross coun-
try and bring out the packs and
the scout master go to the other
camp ten miles below the lake.
Fortunately logging road was
found, and this greatly lessened
the difficulty of getting out.
Each reached camp about mid
night. Howard found the camp
robbed of food except handful
of sugar and an ounce, of butter.
After eating these, he rolled up in
the blankets of both beds and
slept till daylight. He had waded
half a mile in the lake to avoid
the brush.
He had travelled about twenty
six miles that day. Next day he
took a thirty-pound pack on his
back and walked twenty-nine
miles to his home, three miles
south Of Shelton, in less than
eleven hours. He slept little
late the next day, and then went
at the ranch work as usual.

AN UNUSUAL
COURSE TAKEN
RECOMMENDS OTHER THAN
PRIMARY NOMINEE TO FILL Of
FIcE OF GAME WARDEN MADE
VACANT.

Tallahassee, Fla, Sept. 1S.-The
Democratic executive committee of
Wakulla county took an unusual course
at its meeting Monday held for the
purpose Of recommending to the gov
ernor person for appointment as
sheriff Of that county.
The party recommended for sheriff
was game warden for the county and
his appointment as sheriff vacated the
office OF game warden. In the Demo
cratic primaries held this spring a
game warden was nominated. The
executive committee recommended to
the governor another party. So the
gosfrnor was confronted with the SIT
uation of two recommendations for
appointment as game warden. one
made by the people in the primaries
and tbs other made by the Democratic
executive committee.
The governor will appoint the pri-
mary nominee unless very strong rea-
sons are shown why he should not do
so.
