LAUNCH ALERT SINKS
 IN 100 FATHOMS

The launch Alert, of Ketchikan, with six men on board, was swamp ed in Behm canal off Point Ava. The party were searching for another party which are peneved to have been drowned. The Alert was caught in a storm and the waves striking her broadside caused her to list so that the water poured in through an open portlight, until the engine stopped. The only escape for the six men aboard was by a small TOW boat which the launch was towing.
 Capt. Steers, of the Alert. display ed his heroism by insisting on the other five, who were all married men, taking the row boat when it was seen that she would swamp with all six if he entered it. He took lit tie fiat-bottomed skiff but had no sooner entered tt than it was thrown into the air by giant wave, and cap sized. The other men had great diff ficulty in rescuing him, but he still preferred to take his chances in the water to capsizing the other boat, and finally struggled ashore. The Alert sank in one hundred fathoms of wa ter. The people of Ketchikan pre- sented Captain Steers with a gold watch for thinking first of the safe ty of the other members of the party when he so heroically risked his own to assure the balance of the par ty a better chance of getting to shore in safety.

Maonesla In Sea Shells.

Chemical analysis of starfishes, sea
urchins and crinoids, collected from
all parts of the world, show that the
skeletons of these animals contain
much magnesia. The amount present
is found to vary with the temperature
of the water in which the creatures
lived. The percentage of magnesia is
highest in those specimens that lived
in tropical waters and lowest in forms
from the icy seas of Greenland and
the Antarctic. with regular grada-
ton between which even shows the
local effect of cold ocean currents
upon life at the sea bottom. The In
vestigations suggest that the skeie.
tons Of these animals have the compo-
sition of the manganese limestone,
or dolomite, and it is possible that
they furnish clues not only as to
the climatic conditions under which
limestones are now formed. but also
as to the temperatures of the oceans

during different periods Of geologic
history, great deposits OF magnetism

Mean Trick on Clergyman.

An Episcopal clergyman, rector Of
. fashionable church in one Of Bos1
toms most exclusive suburbs, could
not be bothered with the innumerable
telephone calls that fall to one in his
profession, SO he had his name left
out Of the telephone book. A promi-
neM merchant Of the same name, liv.
ing in the same suburb, was continual
" annoyed by requests to ofhciate at
funerals and baptisms. He went to the
rector. told his troubles in kindly
way, and asked the parson to have his
name put in the directory. But with
out success. The merchant then de.
termined to complain to the telephone
company. AS he was writing the let
ter, one Saturday evening, the tele-
phone rang and the timid voice Of
young man asked II the Rev. Mr..
Blank would marry him 1T once. A
happy thought came to the merchant:
mo, I'm too damn busy writing my
sermon" ho replied.
