SEE COPS HAND IN RESCUE
Natives o. RImatava AscrIbe Their Es-
cape From Death to Miraculous
interposition.

Saved by the hand of God" Is the
way the nine natives composing the
crew OF the S0-ton schooner Oromana
characterize their escape from death,
after having lrifted helplesS'y 20 days
on one of the loneliest bits of ocean
In the seven seas.
When the wreck of the Oromana
was towed into Papeete harbor, Tahiti,
one of the most remarkable voyages
known in these waters was completed.
The vessel, two-masted schooner,
owned by natives of Rlmatara. an
island about 300 miles southwest OF
Tahiti, left her home port, without
cargo, bound for the island Of Rurutu.
in the same group, where she was to
undergo repairs and take cargo OF
eopra for Tahiti.
Two days out, she was struck by a
storm, which carried away both her
masts and later her rudder, leaving
her helpless derelict.
With never a glimpse of land or sail
to give ray of hope, the Oromana
uTllteu lOT ~ uuys. AltSi ~ uugS tho
supply Of food was gone. The natives
managed to catch a shark with hook
and line. This lasted them five days.
The rest of the time they had no food.
An occasional shower prevented death
from thirst.
Then the miracle" happened. The
mountains of Tahiti rose slowly over
the horizon. The shifting sea current
brought them nearer and nearer until
they were finally sighted from snore
and a powerboat sent to tow them in.
They were too weak to rise to their
feet, but, after a few days ashore all
appeared to be rapidly recovering from
their experience.
The natives say the hand IF God
guided their craft, for the prevailing
winds in these ATTITUDES are from the
northwest, direction which would
never have brought them to Tahiti.

apathy, unswerved by the pin pricks
of unfair criticism, and gave to this
state a law which has done much tC

From humble beginning he had the
pleasure of seeing the organization

captive at Vologda or Moscow, ii APP
pears that the majority, of the thirty
five Americans which is the total num-
Der listed as missing in action since
beginning of the campaign, must be
counted as dead. Some of these were
wounded men who became lost in the
woods, while others were members of
small detachments which were sur
rounded and are believed to have died
fighting.
one American Captain, who COM
manded the force operating near
Shenkursk. said that the seventeen
men who We're missing after that at
tack were undoubtedly dead, as the
Bolshevili apparently had conducted
their can Daign on the basis of making
no prisoners.
Although the American casualties in
the field during late December and in
the month of January were heavier
than those for all the other months
combined, the total losses in killed,
died OF wounds or disease. or missing,
for the entire expedition up to today
are only 1872, or about 4 per cent.
