TALBOT YOUTH

USED ROPE IN
WORK OF RESCUE

EAsTON. Nd, Dec. 1.-two young
men, Henry Trippe, deputy game
warden, son Of DR.. Samuel S. Trippe,
and Sidney Dodsworth, started Mon
day afternoon from Royal Oak Sta
tion in a rowboat loaded with corn
and guns for the purpose of getting
things in shape for a cunning trip
the next day. When they were about
half a mile from shore on the Miles
river a high sea struck them. Their
boat, corn and guns went to the bot
tom, leaving them floundering in
about. 10 feet OF water. Their over
coats and heavy gum boots nearly
cost them their lives. They struggled
and attempted to swim until they
were nearly exhausted
Augustus Kilmon, who happened
to be on shore seeing the plight they
we're in, hurried his son to their
rescue in a motor boat When the
boy, L. G. Kilmon, Jr., who is Is
years got to Trippe and Bedsworth
he found them both so exhausted
and stiff that neither could help him
self. The boy succeeded in getting a
rope around Bedsworth's leg and
hauled him aboard. He then went
after Trippe, who was standing on
bottom with only his head above
water He tugged and pulled until
he landed him in his boat also.
It was so stormy at the time Of this
rescue that the boy had his hands
full in managing his own boat and
making the rescue.

The Emperor Augustus Caesar, 81
B. c., instituted fund for lending to
needy persons, on pledge. The insti-

at Perugia, in Italy, about 1862 A. D.
The first pawnbrokers in England
were Italian Lombards, and the three

said to have been derived from the
arms of the Medici family, adopted,
according to legend, in memory of

men of Science Beginning to Believe
They Know Something Con-
corning the Subject.

The first successful attempt to
measure stellar distances was EAeSe
in 1888 by Bessel, who determined the
parallax of 81 Cygni, little star Of
the sixth magnitude which had at
tracted attention by its great proper
motion Of five seconds of arc year.
AT the beginning Of the present CEN
fury 40 or so paralIaxes had become
known and in recent years progress
in measurement has become very
rapid. Greenwich observatory reports
the determination Of the parallaXes of
50 stars year, while some American
observatories are doing even more.
American astronomers have in prepa-
ration catalogue giving the paral-
lakes Of 1900 stars and it is expected
that within very few years the dis
tances Of all stars visible to the naked
eye in the northern hemisphere will
have been made known, as well as
those of many fainter stars. The
parallaxes are determined by both
trigonometric and spectroscopic meth
DDS, while a third method can be APP
piled to mary double stars.

a story of his days at the Madeleine
when he was organist.
The composers taste inclined to

wealthy people who attended frequent

musical tastes formed by what they

RED CROSS RESCUED
100000 FROM death
Spent $1,200,000 for Relief Of
Famine Sufferers in China
Last Year.

To help overcome conditions of acute
distress in five famine stricken prov
inces Of Northern China, where mil
liens Of persons were altecte by an
unprecedented shortage OF food, the
American Red Gross during the last
fiscal year spent more than 81 100000,
81 100000 OF which was contributed di-
rCcty by National Headquarters and
the remainder by various groups IN
terested in the welfare Of China.
Through the wide relief operations
thus made possible it is estimated that
more than 100000 famine sufferers
were saved from starvation.
TO the end that similar prompt re-
lief measures by the organization may
always be possible the Red Cross is
asking continued support by the Amer
team people by universal renewal Of
membership at the Annual Red Cross
Roll Call, November II to u.
The method Of relief employed by
the American Red Cross in It's opera

tive, for in addition to saving hundreds
Of thousands Of lives 1t provided China
with more fhan 800 miles of permanent
roads that are sorely needed to pre-

time the Red Cross employed 74,G00
