"NHE keen eyes OF Wolf Larsen,
master of the sealing schooner
n Ghost, bound for japanese
poachIng grounds, spotted the bobbing
head Of Humphrey Van Weyden amid
the waves of San Francisco bay, into
whose waters Humphrey had been
thrown as result of a shipwreck. A
few moments more and Humphrey was
abmSd the Ghost.
Rescued, he faced his rescuer with
thanks and a request 20 be put ashore.
The skipper eyed him curiously.
"what do you do for a livingT ne

stammered.
"Who feeds your

Wolf Larsen's lips curled in a sheer.
"You stand on dead mems legs. You
couldn't walk alone between two sun
rises and hustle the meat for your
belly for three meals. You stay here
as cabin boy for the good OF your SOUL
I'll make a man of you"
Instant rebellion leaped into Hum
uhrey's eyes. Before he could protest
there came a sudden Interruption
clamor from the real cabin boy,
great husky youth who stood by. VOL
Larsen turned and crashed his fist into
the boys stomach. Crumpled like
wet rag around a stick, the lad col
lapsed into a heap on the deck.

The spark of manhood in Humphre
died out.
"Yes," he replied weakly.
"Say Yes, sir ="

And thus Humphrey passed into tn
servitude of Wolf Larsen, the Sc
Wolf. His blinking eyes, half revea

him. Massive Of build, like nus

Columbia Record.

Columbia Record.
A love feast, centering around
Speaker Thomas Cothran, with the
idea in mind that he will not be back
in the speakers chair next year,
marked the closing session of the
legislative term. The speaker Of the
house was presented with handsome
silver pitcher and the young ladies
of tn eengrossing department were
called in to participate in the cere-
monies, each of them being present
ed with a gold pin as token Of ap-
probation Of their services.
The pitcher was presented to the
speaker by Representative John R..
Hart, of York, after Representative
Joseph A. Berry of Orangeburg, had
made a speech with regard to Mr..
Cothran's service. Mr.. Hart also made
a speech, as did Representative David
Smoke, Of Greenville, and several
other members of the House, each
paying tribute in glowing terms to
the work of "Uncle Tom" Cothran as
the presiding officer.
Speaker Cothran has let it be
known that he will not offer for re-
election to the house, and the "love
feast" of Saturday night was in the
nature of farewell. The retiring

from 1905 to 1910, and was elected
again in 1915. In 1918 he was elect
ed speaker and was in 1919 reelected.

presiding officer, and has been uni
versally popular among the men IN
both branches of the assembly.

SCORES KILLED OR
HURT BY BLIZZARD
Northeast Buried Under Deep Snow
AS Rivers Rage at Flood Tide.

New York, March 6.-The east
was slowly recovering tonight fror:
the effects of gale which swept th!:
region last night and today.
The center of the storm, which
created in it's march across the con-
tinent, had passed out to sea and
was mer acing shipping off the New
Erglard ccast es far eastward as the
Grand Banks.
Al least three deaths are said to
have resulted from the storm; scores
were injured, hundreds OF families
were driven from their homes by
floods and property damage was esti-
mated at more than 100000.
Three steamers were driven ashore
between Delaware and Florida but
two were later refoated. The Mar
sodak, which grounded at Rehobotl
Bay, Del, during the night, was re-
leased and proceeded to Philadel-
phia. The Morristown, which struck
FIVE miles north. of Fernandina, Fla,
later made her way to Jacksonville.
The Orient, aground near Hampton
Roads, Va, had not been heard from
tonight.
The latter two are United States
shipping board vessels.
AS the gale swirled in from the
west, where it left its mark, as one
of the seasons worst blizzards; the
northern portion was accompanied by
a snowfall reaching Is inches in some
New York districts, while the south
ern portion brought a downpour of
rain.
Houses were destroyed, others part
ly submerged, bridges swept away,
railway tracks inundated, fields wash
ed out and factories and power
plants put out of commission. The
breaking up of great ice fields in the
rivers added to the force and de-
struction of the floods. Farther north
the sudden drop in temperature
averted food conditions, which were
threatening for several days before
the gale arrived. The heavy snow
and wind however, interrupted traf-
fic and communication. The area Of
extreme cold spread southwark, how
ever, during the day and the water
began to recede from the flooded
areas this afternoon.
I Two men were killed in Harris
burg, Pa, when blinded by snow,
they were struck by street car. A
man was killed in Pittsfeld, Mass,
under similar conditions. Two men
were injured when watchman's
shanty on a bridge at Perth Amboy,
N. j., was blown into the Raritan
river. Scores of other persons in va
rious cities received injuries from
falls and by being struck by objects
driven by the wind.
At New Brunswick, N. j., two hun
dred persons were driven from their
homes by the food waters of the
Raritan. The lower business section
was flooded and in some portions Of
the residence district, the water
reached the second stories. More
than q score of factories closed down
when their boiler rooms were flooded.
Boston, March 6.-New England
was buried tonight in snow and sleet,
which swept over this section on
northwest gale that attained veloc-
ity of 80 miles an hour, according to
officials Of the Blue Hill Observa-
tory.
Northern New England, already
deep in snow, suffered the most from
today's blizzard, that started with
rain and sleet, freezing when the
temperature took sudden drop.

He said that the delay in making the recommendation was due to the fact that Gibson, who was corporal in the army, and who was almost mor- tally wounded in action in France was believed to be dead, the officer i learning of his present whereabouts only since the arrest of Gibson in Austin.
 Recommended by Lieutenant. In making his recommendation for an award for bravery for Corporal Gibson on his war record, Lieut. Johnson said:
