had practically worn himself out car

him as long as he lived. To keep him
here might mean his death by freez-

the fury Of the gale more than the
others. Fortunately when about 20
miles northeast of Bermuda, she was
sighted by the b%attleship Michigan,
which supplied her with provisions.
She arrived at Bermuda but in enter.
ing port ran on a submerged coral
ledge. She was soon 1oated, and is
now at the dock yard, badly damaged.
The commander of the Paulding,
Lieut.. s.. H. Doyle, said the gales
the worst he had known during his Is
years of sea service. When 600 miles
from New York, the vessel a forced
to lay to, while the wind blew at the
rate of 80 miles an hour. Her wireless
apparatus was carried away, boats
were washed overheard or smashed,
the fore compartments were flooded
and provisions were spoiled. Officers
and men were hurled out of their
hunks and several were cut and
bruised as a result of violent falls.
The pounding of the seas opened some
of the deck seams. The Paulding has
undergone examination and after max.
ing repairs will leave for Guantanamo
with the other destroyers.
All the other boats show marks Of
rough experience. On the Trippe, En-
signs James Irish and R. G. Walling
were badly cut and bruised by falls.

Nearly 80 years old, Mr.. Crane, who
had been without the advantages-or
disadvantages. as he characterized it
of training in universities. and had
worked his way to the head of a large
iron working company, %contended all
his life that the college and the uni.
versity were useless fixtures, and that
the money devoted to higher .educa.
ton could be spent more profitably in
extending industrial education and
aiding persons who had met with ad.
verse fate.
His demise occurred within a few
hours of the issue of his last attack
on schools--an attack called forth by
reputation of his theories by col.
lege professors and presidents. In it,
he renewed his assertion that college
graduates were lily equipped for earn.
ing a living. and that the majority OF
them could not command the salary
of a skilled mechanic. Culture, and
not livelihood or the means of earn.
ing it, was the only purpose he could
discover for the existence Of colleges.
