ANOTHER SAGA OF THE SEA
Two Young Naval Officers for Eighty
Hours Chung to Pontoon of
Capsized Seaplane.

The return to life and land Of two
young officers of the naval service,
one an American, the other Briton,
after having been given up for lost,
adds another chapter of absorbing
interest to the annals Of the sea, de-
tails writer in the Omaha Bee.
Ensign E. A. Stone, of the naval re-
serve, tells how he and Sublieutenant
Eric More, of the British navy, chung
for 80 hours to the pontoon of a
capsized and waterlogged seaplane,
and finally were rescued by trawl-
er. 1t is simple yarn, as the young
officer modestly relates it, but many
a pretentious and important novel
has been based on far less material
than he furnishes. If Stephen Crane
was able to write a book detailing
the experiences and emotions of
young man in the course Of short
one-day battle, what might not an
inspired writer make out Of this
four-day contest with wind and
wave, hunger, thirst and darkness,
waged by these sturdy young Anglo
Saxons, who euchered Neptune and
will live to fight again? 1t is but
an incident of the war, yet it is valu-
able as characteristic of the race that
has set its full force to do one big
job of work for humanity.

chants Association of this city to
join them in a picnic to be held in
Judson Rittenhouse' woods, on the
Sergeantsville road, on Wednesday,

even provide autos to carry those of
the guests who have no conveyances

and other topics will be present, and
the Sandy Ridge, Sergeantsville M.

PAPER BRICKS FOR FUEL.

An extension of the newspaper
utilizing idea used in making trench
candles has appeared in the form of
paper bricks. The equipment neces-
sary for this new brick manufacture
is a small cylinder press. Newspa-

burnable material, are soaked in
water, crushed into compact mass
in the press, and then dried in the
sun. Paper bricks combined with
coal are said to make.a very hot fire.

A small stone snapped from nnder
the wheel of a passing automobile,
on Monday, entered the open door
of the Mrs. S. S. Van Horns store,
on the Church street side, and shat

The lage barn on the farm owned
by Joseph Kruppenbacker of New

WHY BUCHANAN DID NOT WED
Broke His Heart and He Never
Loved Another.

In his youth James Buchanan's
heart was won by the charms of the
beautiful Miss Anna G. Coleman,
who, like himself, resided in Ian
caster, Pa, relates a writer in San
Francisco Town Talk. They were
soon betrothed and were counted the
handsomest couple in all the country
around.
Some time after the engagement
had been announced Mr.. Buchanan
was obliged to go out of town on a
business trip. On his return he
stopped in to see a Mrs. William
Jenkins, who was entertaining a
Miss Oracle Hubley, daughter of
General Hubley, an officer of the
Revolutionary war. A gossiping
young woman told Miss Coleman of
Mr.. BuchanaE's visit and thereby ex-
cited her jealousy. On the spur of
the moment she penned an angry
note and released him from his en-
gagement. A short time after this
incident party was arranged to go
to Philadelphia to attend an opera.
Miss Coleman was included in the
invitation, and on arriving in Phil
adelphia, on a plea of indisposition,
remained at the hotel.
On their return from the opera
Miss Coleman was found in her
room cold in death. The very sad
fate of Miss Coleman broke James
Buchanan's heart, and he never mar
ried and never loved another wom-
an.
