How and when the vessel struck no one liviil to tell, but she lay imbedded In the sand parallel to the beach, with an anchor trending to the northeast, or offshore, showing that she might have east anchor in deep water and dragged it before the resistless gale, fetching up helpless on the bar. Trouble was discovered soon after midnight by the lifesaving patrols of two sla tions, tiie Dam Neck Mills and Little Island, whose heats met half a mile north of the wyeck They saw the flare of Coston signals on the outer edge of the bar and hurried off to the station houses, one making a 2b. mile and the other a four mile run through drifted snow.

There was no rush, ns might be expected among men worn out with anxiety and perishing wl*h cold, but the seven men, including the captain, were quietly transferred to the surflsiat and supplied with life preservers While the spectators on the beach were anxtously watching to see the lifeboat turn with Its human freight toward the shore an appalling sight met their eyes.

eritlge were the only ones of the crew to reach shore alive. Etheridge was the youngest man in tho party. Ho struck out with Helanga to swim ashore, hut tinding his long rubber hoots an impediment to swimming hj removed them with the aid of the keeper. Helanga couldn't remove his own because they were atrap|K'd over his shoulders by cords running underneath his oil suit and life preserver Etheridge was the first man landed, and he was pull ed out of the surf more dead than alive by

a band of Ids comrades, who followed of light blue twill with white dots, lines down the beta'll, and taking hold of hands or crossbars,

walked out to grasp the struggling men. Snrfinan Land swam almost within reaeh of help, then fainted. The surfmen In tho line grasped his body and dragged it ashore, but it was too late. Ho was dead. Surf man Tcdford alone i f those who clung to tlnvovcrtiirneil surfboot escaped. He held on until he felt that to do so longer was to perish of cold, then let loose and struck out for shore, swimming towtird the liiienf rescuers. He was seized by them after he had lust tho power of speech and after some treatment started alone toward the station house. He fell prostrate in the snow before reaching there, but fortunate ly his wife was on the way to the scene of the wreck and discovered him In time to

save Ids life.

Young Etheridge became unconscious as soon as he landed, but was finally brought around and told his mates where to look for Keeper Helouga, with whom he had parted after the boot incident in the surf. The brave fellow was found a long distance south of the wn'ok, his eyes fixed and bloodshot, his breathing short and la bored. The life belt was torn from his body and restoratives applied, but he died in a few minutes, the last victim to leave the i water with a semblance of life remaining. Four of the gallant fellows he hod selected | to make that perilous trip joined him In eternity. Of the 22 ill starred German sailors not one lived to tell of their strug gles, but they were seen by those on shore to yield before the power of the surf like men already exhausted when cast into the sea. The ship’s hull never stirred from her firm bed in the sand, but, with her musts towering above the bar, remained a suggestive memento of that startling catastrophe. Geokgk L. Kilmkr.

The coat and skirt invariably in such gowns are severely plain if made iu good taste. The skirt, escaping the floor all around, is uutriinined except by stitching above a hem and is usually without lining, though occasionally lined with gay taffeta silk the color of the vest or matching that of a shirt waist to be worn by way of variety. The coat may be long or short as one fancies and either single breasted or else lapped at the waist line to fasten by one or two buttons. The revers and collar

are masculine in cut.

Whi n the life savers made the discovery that the sailors were in a frail boat at tho i mercy of tho breakers, their hearts sank for an instant, but the appalling situation only spurred them to renewed efforts at rescue. A fifth shot went speeding from the line gun toward the wreck, but It fell short. A sixtli lodged on the head stays of the ship and then dropped off Into the water. Keeper Helanga then started to his station to fetch the surfbont and a fresh supply of powder. After dispatching the boat by t " o surfmen. the keeper ran to his house near by to snatch a hasty breakfast. While hu stood by the table, hurriedly swallowing n cup of coffee, bis wife nsked him what he hoped to do witli the surfbont in the heavy sea. He answered that in ease the life lines failed again he would wait for low tide and then board the wreck. Kissing her as he passed out of the door, he added prophetically: ‘'The worst has not come yet T would give money if those men were out of that boat.” Arriving at the wreck ahead of the surf h at, tin! brave keeper again resorted to lino throwing A dry line was used for the seventh shot, but It broke close to the slug The eighth fell short, and the surfbont having come up Helanga decided to risk it in the breakers without aiiiomeut’a delay, for it was nearing 11 o'clock and the situation of the wrecked mariners becoming desperate in tho extreme. Six stout oarsmen, the pick of the two crews, manned the boat, and Helanga took the rudder. Iu the party were the keeper’s

A Curious Will. A man named Znlesky, who died in Poland in 1888 left a peculiar will. The envelope which contained the will said: “To bo opened after my death.” When the envelope was torn off, another one was found underneath, with tho

words:

“To lie opened six weeks after the first envelope has been opened.” The next envelope bore the inscription: “To bo opened in a year.” After waiting a year the envelope was opened and found to contain still another, which said: “To Is- opened In two years.” And when the will was finally reached it was found that he had iMspicnthcd 100,0(10 rubles, or one half his fortune, to his relatives having the largest number of children, while the o^ior half was to lie invested for 100 years, at the end of which time the principal and Interest were to he divided among his relatives.—New York Tribune.

The above from the special Washington correspondent of The Jonrn ’ of Commerce and Commercial Bulletin is confirmatory of what we stated only a few weeks ago.
