1t has been believed bu Revenue Cut

this opinion.

It arrived today after vain effort to

The Onondaga made a dash for the

that the vessel was on fire. The Brit

rived in the vicinity first, took the Con-
sole in tow, after rescuing its crew.
The Consols was towed some distance
this way. but the Castle Eden gave
up the struggle little before the Onon-
daga arrived. The Revenue Cutter men
at once got a hawser over the burning
ship and towed II to within ten miles
Of Currituk, when the hawser broke.
BY this time the vessel was such a
mass of flames that further attempts at
salvage were out OF the question. 1t

TO mount the deck again and make fast

MEN LOST
ON BOATS CAUGHT
IN ICE AND STORM
Three Launches and Oyster
Dredge Believed to Have
Been Sunk.
Continued from First Page1

The tragedy TODAY is the aftermath
Of the extreme cold weather and :he
Gig January freeze. For weeks the oys-
ter h"hts and launches, which took
refuge IN Dogwood harbor, of Thigh
mans island when the icy crust began
closing the waters of the river, have
lain there, iCe-bOund. Nine boats lay
in the pilinE ice and repeated calls were
made to baltimore for assistance. ac-
CortlinG to the Tilghmans island lookout
EveyOue was awaiting the thaw, the
thaW which meant the return to work
and busy days were to mean rich fluan-
rial reward when the oystermen would
be able TO repienish empty markets with
the needed oysters. That is why the
oystGrn'Gn stuck to their boats.
To-day the heavy wind and ice pre-
vent any searching party's hope Of sue
cess, should II start out. None of the
beats in that vicinity can hope to live
n the water and the gale is reported as
increasing in strcnSIn. Only a large
vessel would be able to hunt for the
missing crews and the TiIgHmans Island
people are UiIning their hopes on the
arrival of some Su n craft.
:. II. harrison. of :he Tilghmar Pack
ing Company, owners of one Of the miss
ing boats, admitted that he had given
his crew and VesEcl up for lost this
Iumrning. The other owners agreed with
him and the entire island is mourning
the less of the men.

Consols until the vessel sank this morn
ing at 2:3O o'clock. The attempt to save
the Consols f. said to have been most
heroic. The Castle Eden gave up the
effort when a northwest storm was en-
countered, but the Revenue Cutter men
were undisturbed by this.
The crew of the Consols will be In
the hospital at Norfolk some time, ac-
cording to dispatches. About every
man In the crew has blistered feet.
They fought flames for twenty hours
before the Castle Eden appeared and
tool them Off the burning vessel.
Captain de Otto, of the Onondaga,
made a quick run with his ship to
the scene of trouble. The Consols was
first reported to be of Bodie Island, N.
G. This Is more than 100 miles from
the point where the Onpndaga lay.
If the Onondaga should be vent at
once TO join the Apache In the hunt
for the bodies OF the supposedly
drowned oyster men the first named
vessel will have one more chapter to
add to a strenuous few days. The On
ondaga was just through towing in the
damaged ship Pomeran when 1t started
off to help the Consols. The Pomeran
was hurt when 1t rammed and wrecked
the Hamburg g-American liner Allekhany

Best Skating of Winter
In Capital Toddy

The best skating which this win

the entire surface of the ice.

ideal skating condition. The
coating Is more than a foot and
a half thick, and capable of
supporting any reasonable
weight.
The snow furry of the night has
not affected the smOOthness of
the ice on the Basin or else
where. The strong northwest
wind quickly swept II from the
surface of the frozen water.
At the Zoo this afternoon hun

The Farm and The Boy.

Every once in a while and sometimes
oftener than that, you'll find some
farmer wondering why the boy wants
to leave the farm Why wonder2 Es-
pecally when you know that the boy
knows that you really want to do the
same thing as soon as you have saved
up enough money to do it in the way
you want to do Is it not a fact that
too many of yon, by your daily lives
and examples, are teaching him that
the farm is only a place on which to
work hard, and to live harder? And
for what? To make enough money to
move into town after you are too old to
enjoy things, and when your spending
muscles have been paralyzed by years
Of inaction and disuse If your daily
lives are along those lines, do not be
surprised if your boy beats you into
town by several years. And it may be
that it will require years OF tramping
over the Gripping pavements of the
city before he realizes that after all
the plowed ground was easiest on his
cons and conscience and far better
for his comfort. 1t is up to you to
keep the boy on the farm. How? By
teaching him, both by precept and eX-
ample, that the farm is not merely a
place to work and win wealth, by the
sacrifice of many pleasures. But to
teach him that the farm is the best
place God ever invented on which to
live broad, free, efficient, seryiceable,
helpful, healthy human lives Thous-
ands and thousands of such lives have
been lived on the farm. Thousands and
thousands of such liz are being lived
today upon the farm, out in the open
of Gods sunshine. And it is because
of this fact, in a large degree, that
this country is great and good and
growing better.

Mr.. and Mrs. Clark seem to be pic

must show them that, after Mr.. Clark,
the most disappointed man when the
prize went to Wilson was Mr.. Bryan

Mr.. Bryan, of course, wanted that
nomination A great many Of US ex-
pected him to get it. AS the leading
candidate, Mr.. Clark, instead Of Mr..
Wilson, incurred his opposition. Mr..
Clark began to look very dangerous,
and it then became expedient for Mr..
Bryan to push him back bit and Mr..
Wilson forward. The country knows
how Mr. Bryan overdid things, dished
his own popularity with the tired dele
gates and nominated one of his rivals.
In concealng with a beaming coun-

that if Mr.. Clark was beaten by Mr..

One Of the most remarkable
changes that has taken place in the
live stock industry in this country, ac-
cording to John Tormey Of the Wiscon-
sin College Of Agriculture, is the COM
paratiye increase in the number Of
dairy cattle and the decrease of beef
cattle. The last ten years has shown
an increase of 20 per cent in the num-
Der of dairy cattle and decrease of
over 6 per cent in the number of beef

CLEWs is DOUBTFUL.

Henry Clews, a New York banker
and world-rencwned for his financial
wisdom and integrity, upon being asked
for an expression on the nomination Of
Wilson, said;
mo one can say word against the
personal character of Governor Wilson,
but it should be remembered he has
only theoretical ideas of business. and
this country needs just now a practical
man of business understanding more
than at any time in the history of the
nation. AS college president Mr.
Wilson can be graded as one of the
best, but many Of his IDEAS are ex-
tremely radical, and believe the peo-
pile will carefully weigh the merits Of
the candidates between now and cleo
ton, with the result that Mr.. Taft,
who has had four years Of experience
to guide him, will when the excitement
attending the conventions has subsidized,
attract Republicans and conservative
Democrats as well, and they will do as
they have done for many years that
is support the Republican platform
and the good man who stands upon it. 4"
