the hope that it would be of some
use to his friend, the surgeon and
his family.
This was all that he could do, but
it showed his gratitude and his de-
sire to do something for those who
had been kind to him in his trouble.
With his mother he returned to
Iowa, and now comes the sad part
of the story.
AS the years glided away with no
,tidings from Johnson. ! naturally
supposed that he was dead.
Imagine my surprise about three
years ago when l accidentally learn
ed that the captain was then alive
at his old home.
For thirty years he had been bed
ridden, cripple. He had never re-
covered from his wound, and during
all that time he had been cared for
by his devoted mother, whose love
for him seems to have heightened
her span of life.
1t is one of the saddest chapters in
the sad history of our fratridical war.
Poor Johnson of Iowa-God help
him and his old mother, if he has not
already taken them to their eternal
home beyond the skies!

Big Shipment of Gasoline

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb, 1.-The
Standard Oil company's American
steamer Richmond left this port lc'
Denmark via New York yesterday
towing a barge. Between the two
they will take some 4,25o.00O gallons
Of highest grade gasoline through
the mine zone and if they reach their
destination safely will deliver the pet
rol at s. a gallon, or more than s.
100000 for the cargo. That the car-
go is destined for use by the German
army is not denied. Germany is
known to be almost without this
necessary motive power. Hence the
almost unheard of price.
