San Francisco, CAL, July 1S.-A
woman's stolid valor, poise and un-

thrilling chapters OF heroism ever

heart breaking experience they might
have given up or gone to pieces un-

When the IA survivors of the i'll

steered their tiny lifeboat through
the Golden Gate the other day, the

Mrs. Theodore Olsen, the captains
wife. a true daughter of Vikings.
She is just that.
The sea has been her home, her
husbands schooner her domicile.
, And the strength she drew from
the sea-, Mrs. Olsen used to cheat 1t
OF its prey.
She was a woman!" say the ship
wrecked sailors in simple and full
tribute.

BUSH ERADICATION
THE BARBERRY BUSH DRIVE
PROVES SUCCESSFUL.

Brookings, July 1S.-More than
21,275 barberry bushes have been
found and practically all of them de-
stroyed In "a counties In South Da-
kota, according to III. C. Gilbert, field
agent, United States department of
agriculture. In 10 counties no bar
berries have been found. Although
30 per cent OF the common barDerries
in the state have been eradicated. the
remaining 10 per cen are enough tn
cause a rust epidemic. Tie fight
against barberries must go on until
these plants are out of the state.
At this time of year the rust is ap-
pearing on the grasses and grains.
Some reports OF rust have been re-
ceived at State college. Present
weather conditions and light rust in
lection SO far indicate that the loss
from black rust will not be heavy
this year.

REAL THRILLER
ETHEL DOWDELL, OF ARTESIAN,
In A FLYING MACHINE.

Artesian, July 1S.-During the fly
ing that has been INDUCED in at Rus
kin park since the aeronautic exhibit
tion of July 4 a rather peculiar acct
dent occurred. Miss Ethel Dowdell,
eldest daughter of Senator r. f.
Dowdell, one of the owners of the
park, was a passenger, taking her
initial air journey with Aviator A. r..
Cole. of Hutchinson, Kan, flying in
structor of the Moler aviation school
OF Chicago.
After an unusually beautiful flight
the machine circling over the ranch
and park grounds, a landing was at
tempted from the southeast into the
cleared space of the interior of the
mile track. A descent was made to
an almost perfect landing, but as the
wheels of the landing gear touched a
rough spot the motor throttle was
Jared open, taking the machine into
the air again unintentioally. The
aviator. then realizing that the close
proximity of the timber made it inn
possible for him to attempt a clear
anee, piloted the plane into the wheat
field. throttling the motor. The
landing was perfect, but the entan-
clement of the wheat and the speed
OF the plane caused a complete SOM
er sault of the machine.
Miss Dowdell managed to free her
self from the safety belt and assist
the aviator. who had been thrown in
such a way that he could not reach
his safety belt to release himself. The
many onlookers were terrified for a
moment, but not a sprain or bruise
was received, although the machine
was badly damaged. Miss Dowdell
declares her intent to make another
trip.

Mrs. Olsen Is unconscious of being
a heroine.
I'VE just made the best of it," she
said at the end Of an experience that
has driven men mad, killed women
from exposure and shattered nerves
for life.
The best of it" was two weeks in
the schooner's overladen lifeboat,
drenched by wave and rainstorm,
sailing under a makeshift rigging,
short OF rations and water, while be-
set by those subtler perils that breed
panic under sustained stress.

actually went to pieces. He grovel-
ed in the bottom Of the boat for a
day or two until he was braced up.
I think the Door fellow was sick.
Yes, I prayed by myself. I don't
know whether the others did or not.
Most Of the time we were huddled In
our wraps, trying to protect ourselves
from wind and wave. There was lit
tie talk. Once or twice the men sang
and yarnec a little.
II didn't lose heart-you can't
lose heart at sea
And | tried to bear my part,
though I'm afraid / didn't do much
that was helpful.
That was her way of putting 1t.
All Of 1t.
But the sailors, though taciturn
men, spoke admiringly OF her un-
complaining courage, of the cheer
fulness in which she bore misery, OF
how she stinted herself OF food and
water from the precious store so that
the men at the oar and bailing can
might have the more-of her inspir-
ing example in a word, that kept up
their spirits and hope.
The blood of Vikings, defying fate!
I'VE didn't reach port any too
soon," concluded Mrs. Olson as she
climbed dripped, but smiling from
the little craft. -Four hours before
we arrived we had eaten our last bis
cult and only a quart Of water was
left.
But now it's all over-we're safe
and none the worse for it-and that
ends it,"

GYPSIES OF BALKAN LANDS
Eastern Europe Original Home Of the
Cian-knoW All Roads and
Bypaths.

In the mountainous Balkan lands the
gypsies are as nearly ut home as any
where on the planet. There are native
dialects in these parts not unlike their
own and there are regions where the
people resemble them closely in per-
Sonal appearance. The Romany name
is surely near akin to the Roumanian.
Yet even here the gypses ale as alien
To the people as whole as are their
brethren tramping the roads in west
ern America, writes Niksah.
If the ethnologiSts are right the Bal
Kan region is probably the original Eu-
rnpean home Of the clan and they have
been wandering back and forth across
ii for many centuries. Certainly they
know all the roads and hypaths and in
search for q guide you will sometimes
find a gypsy who will tell you that he
can take YOU OYER certain mountain
pass or through a certain valley, al
though he has never been that way
himself, because ne has heard his IA
Their or his grandfather tell of the road.
Lore of the road is to the gypsy what
lore of the market is to the broker or
lore of the soil to the farmer, some
thing precious. by which he lives, to be
stored away for reference.
These gypsies of eastern Europe
range back and forth across the tum.
hled Balkan country. all the way from
Constantinople westward to Hungary
and Austria. even as far as Bohemia
and the Russian frontier. OF all the
worlds gypsies they are the most pow
erty-stricken in appearance. their cara
vans are the most miserable, their dogs
the leanest and their children the dirt
lest. Yet in some ways they are the
ablest Of the clan. They are certainly
the most musical; their talent in this
line Is unn!stakable and rare
