GREELEY'S STATUE
ON A DUMP PILE.

The little village Of Chappaqua, 10
miles north of White Plains, N. Y,
is worked up over the fact that the
$4,000 statute of Horace Greeley,
which was to have been erected in the
village park last summer, has been
carried to the farm of John L. V.
Bristol, near the station in that vii
lage and dumped behind barn, where
it now lies covered with snow. The
statue was made in New York City.
For some reason it was allowed to lie
on flat car on the railroad siding
for two months. The money for the
bronze figure, which stands more than
fie feet high, was raised by popular
subscription. One of the contrlbut-
ors was Andrew Carnegie. who gave
$1,000. Thousands of school child
rem throughout the country gave
theft mites toward the fund. 1t
was planned to erect the statue last
August, and the dedication address
was to have been delivered by Prelsi-
dent William H. Taft. Another speak
or was to have been Governor John A.
Dix.
The. renowned editor and phHoso-
pher in his autobiography says
fame is a vapor and reputation an
accident, and the people who bless
YOU today will curse you tomorrow

who attained a worldwide notorlety
in his time should have passed into
an eclipse in this day and generation

BARK LOST.
Terrible Experience of Survivors in
Fierce Storms.

Thrilling stories Of the manner II
which they had been rescued from
the bark Carrie Winslow, as that yes
sell every seam split asunder by the
waves of three storms, was rapidly
| sinking beneath the raging sea were
told in Philadelphia last night by
Captain Calston, the commander OF
the Inflated bark, his young wife, the
mate and eight sailors.
They reached Philadelphia yestsr-
day on the British steamer Syndic, vol
unteers from whose crews, braved the
heavy waves in the only remaining
life boat to effect the rescue.
The Carrie Winslow, loaded with
1,067 tons of coal, cleared from Phila-
delphia on December 20 for Fernan-
dina. Severe gales were encountered
soon after passing Cape Henlopen.
Heavy storms ragged on Christmas
eve and on late Friday and Saturday.
About midnight Friday the gale
reached hurricane force and the fore
mast fell, carrying away one of the
two lifeboats. The bark soon began to
list heavily to port and it was dlscov-
cred that there was more than four
feet of water in the hold.
The entire crew manned the pumps
and worked heroically throughout the
night. At day break Captain Carlson
strapped himself to the peak of the
remaining mast and started look
out which was finally rewarded by the
sight of the Syndic, which responded
to signals of distress and endeavored
to launch life boat. The little craft
was smashed like an eggshell against
the side of the steamer and further at
tempts to rescue were abandoned
for the time being in the hope that the
storm would subside.
After standing by from 9 a. M, to
4 o'clock in the afternoon 1t was seen
that the Winslow would be unable to
withstand another night. A last des-
perate effort was made, and the only
lifeboat which remained uninjured on
the Syndic was launched and succeed
ed in reaching the Winslow.
Mrs. Carlson. a bride of only few
months, was the first to be takan OIL
Two other trips we're required before
before Captain Carlston, the last to
leave the bark, was taken off. 1t was
T o'clock before he was landed aboard
the Syndic.

ARE THE SEASONS
GRADUALLY CHANGING.

It is often suggested that our sea-
sons are gradually changing. That
the winters are later in coming and
wintry weather continues longer IN
the spring.
Some farmers declare they can
leave their tobacco in the field much
later now than they could hate CEN
tury ago. The Lexington, Va, Ga
zette calls attention to a great snow
storm which occurred on October %,
1853. The ground was covered to the
depth of - inches. Trees that had not
lost their leaves were so weighted
by the snow that many of them were
weighted down. In 1855 it was so
cold in November that the country PEG
lie filled their ice houses with excel
lent ice, at that early date. The riv-
ers were frozen over so that persons
walked across them with perfect safe
ty.
We are told that white Christmas
was a common thing fifty or seventy
five years ago; now it is something
of a rarity. Comparatively mad
weather continues up to Christmas
and real winter does not begin unit
about the first Of January, but ther
it continues until late into March.
Some persons contend that the wca
