The A Weird Yam Tide Of Wide' Waters j M, lhat 1 CffOf Went Wild

CHAPTER V. In Newfoundland Again. When Captain Gienney rushed out of the Newfoundland cable station in a panic of fear and remorse, it was as a man laden with the sins of all the world and finding the burden too heavy for him. People whom he passed gazed at him with amazement and sympathy, thinking him some unfortunate, hard hit in the disaster, whose troubles had unhinged his mind, but he paih no heed. Remorse for what, in his excitement, he conceived to be his own individual fault, fear on behalf of his beloved little granddaughter, blinded him for the time to the impression he might make upon others. He reached the shore, where many people still lingered in spite of the lateness of tire hour. - Snatches efconversatioh, broken and disconnected, could be heard from men already Striving to adjust themselvees to the altered conditions which must be faced. be a big market on the other side for pretty much everything we can send over, if a half of the cable reports are true.” ‘‘And the man who can get over there quick enough to take advantage of it can have things just about his own way.” Men discussed animatedly' the building of wharves at the new water line; the purchase and equipment of vessels to take the place of those which were stranded and unavailable; the probable length of time which must elapse before these latter could be moved —if this were at all possible—upon specially constructed ways, examined as to seaworthiness, and then launched again. The captain made his way to where

a group of people,-were standing in the light of a fire, and touched a man upon the arm. “You see this strange and terrible sight,” said the captain with a wave of his stick toward the dim land where the sea had washed, “and you know the damage that has been done here and on the other side of the world. Sir, I have caused it! I am responsible for every stick of property destroyed, for every life lost, for every ” A flicker of understanding crossed the stranger’s face. “Yes—yes, that’s all right; I understand! Of course you are, but don’t worry about it” He put his hand under the captain’s arm, and, apparently with no ulterior motive, began urging him gently up the beach toward the lights of the houses. ( The captain pulled b&ck. “No—you don’t understand; I mean what I say! My Sam, man! It isn’t a joke to me!” His earnestness and agitation were obvious. “I cursed a man —cursed my best friend, best friend a man ever ihad, sir!—best friend I’ve got in the world!—and this is the fulfillment of the curse. Leggo my arm, can’t you? What do you think I am-r a darned baby that I can’t walk alone? I mean what I say! And now he’s drow'ned over in Scotland, my friend that I cursed, and my little tyke Minna with him, and that’s my fault, too! Hey, isn’t it my fault?” The stranger seemed more sympathetic.

1A man came running down the beach toward them. He was in his shirt-sleeves; his face was pale and -drawn as though be had passed through some terrific strain. In his hand he held a lantern, which, as he ran, he thrust into the faces of those he passed, without pausing for explanation, to their unbounded and indignant surprise. He spied the captain as the latter, propelled by the stranger’s strong arm, was proceeding unwillingly up the beach, and yelled at him: “Hi, you—hold on a minute! Got a message for you. We got her going again—and it’s from Scotland! ” At the magic word Captain Glenney jerked loose from the sympathizing stranger’s grasp, and ran to meet the shirt-sleeved messenger. The latter thrust at him a crumpled sheet of paper on which a few lines were hastily and very badly typewritten. By the light 'o? the lantern the captain unfolded it with shaking hands, and read: „ ; McAlister went to find Minna Glenney at Lancaster, knowing your alarm. Caught in flood, both dragged to safety at risk of recuer’s Jives. McA 1 lister ruined. Ridwell, Clerk. „ The captain dropped the .paper and hid his face in bis hands. “Thank God—oh, thank God!” he cried brokenly, with a sob that shook him. “ ' - • ■ The stranger said “Good enough!”

$22,000 PRIZE FOR WORLD'S FASTEST MOTOR BOAT

The Wm. Wrigley Jr. Trophy for the power boat championship of the world represents over 622,000. jit is a perpetual trophy to be won eacn year by the club whose moter speed boat entry makes the best three out of five races in competition open to the world, free for all boats under 40 feet in length. It is a reproduction in silver of a "Flying Mercury" presenting to Neptune a hydroplane motor speed boat. Neptune with his trident, dolphins and water surrounding are in bronze. The round pedestal is of green marble. The figure of Mercury and the model speed boat contain 1,000 ounces of sterling silver. The trophy stands 5 feet 5 inches high. The base is 47 inches in diameter. Mr. Wrigley will provide annually a replica of this 4»ig ffil.tWW tropny, which becomes the personal property of the winner of each year’s races. To provide this trophy annually will require an endowment of about $17,500, thus giving Mr. Wrigley’s trophy a

to show his entire sympathy and appreciation, the assistant operator picked up the paper and smoothed it with unnecessary care. Between them they led the old man, now thoroughly broken down and unstrung and weeping like a child, up the beach to the little dark cottage on the hill. * * * * * * Morning came, and for the first time people got a fair view of the strangest sight ever seen in modern times. If by moonlight the scene was weird, mysterious, shrouded in a glamour of its own-,-by daylight it was revealed in all its startling nakedness. An ocean without water, dotted with dead ships; a dead sea, peopled with dead creatures. It stretched away almost as far as the eye could see, except where, on the horizon line, a thin gray, light streak showed where the waters had gone. The sun, shining brightly in a cloudless sky, drew thin veils of shimmering vapor from the leaves and grass which lay half-buried in the black mud of the ocean floor. Various black humps against the sky-line were declared by people to be stranded whales. A strong fishy smell was blown over tihe land by the warm, faint breeze.

Along the eastern seaboard of the United States and Canada the cities were seized with panic. At one blow alt tbe maritime trade of the northern coasts was destroyed. All<-commerce with Europe seemed to be cut off until some method could be devised of bridging the vast extent of unstable sand and mud between the shore and the water. A cabinet official at Washington, well known all over the country for his inventive turn of mind, 1| a midnight interview suggested that passengers and lighter articles of merchandise might be carried across the intervening space by means of aifr ships—a flying ferry established, so to speak. But unfortunately this plan presented several well-nigh insuperable obstacles. Chief of these was the fact that there were only two airships to be found in the United States, one at Coney Island, New York, and the other in St. Louis, Missouri, and neither of there was capable of carrying more than three hundred pounds outside of ballast

Vast and far-reaching consequences might be entailed unless matters could shortly be restored to the normal condition. With the intewuption of shipments of American grain, to European markets, many countries of the Old World would soon find themselves confronted by the specter of famine. It was small wonder that men set their teeth that morning and de-

value of about $22,000. In addition to these prises are a $1,500 cash prise for the winner and a SSOO cash prize for the second boat. The first races will be held at Chicago during the Water Carnival and Naval Review, Aug. 10 to 17 inclusive, 1912. It Is expected that there will be boats from all over the world. Water Carnival week at Chicago will include the other races In the Fourth Annual Regatta of the Western Power Boat Association, the International Yacht Race between the Royal Canadian Yacht Club of Toronto and the Chicago Yacht Club, the Lipton Cup Races of Columbia Yacht Club, fireworks displays, naval parades, swimming and diving contests and exhibitions by sailors, marines and naval reserves^ 111 All lire competitions there will be handsome trophies or liberal cash prizes. William Hale Thompson, Coifimodore, Associated Yacht and Power Boat Clubs, Chicago, will be glad 'to supply information.

Modern Method of Treating Prisoners Works Well.

Less than a decade ago a prison warden who would 'have presumed to grant leave of absence to a “lifer” would have been thought little short of crazy and removed from office. In keeping with progress in other lines, however, the modern idea has also permeated the thick prison walls at Michigan City and now it is no uncommon thing for Warden Fogarty to grant a parole in case the matter is one he deems worthy. One of the most striking cases of the modern parole system is the case of Worley Osborne, of Kokomo, sent to Michigan City for life on a charge of murder. Osborne .was given a week in which to visit his aged father who is dying. Just how well the system works out is well illustrated by this same example. Osborne left Michigan City attired as a citizen, without a guard, with the right to be absent from his melancholy cell a week. In speaking of the action Osborne declared, “Warden Fogarty said only a few words to me. He said I would be expected to return at the minute of expiration of my parole. I would rather break my neck than to break my word to him.” . The greeting accorded the wayward son by his mother was pathetic in the extreme. The aged father, however, was too weak to make any demonstration, hut could merely nod a grateful recognition to his son. ■The system of granting leave of absence to prisoners other than trusties was at first inaugurated about eight years ago. Since that time it has been tried .out in most of the modern places of 'confinement and it has been found that there is “honor even among lifers.” When put upon their honor, almost without exception they would rather “break their necks than their word."

Governor Marshall and Harry B. Darling, secretary of the state prison board, are enthusiastic over the results shown by Warden Fogarty in his method of handling prisoners.

REMINGTON.

Mrs. D. A Bickle entertained lady Foresters and tljeir husbands to the number of 25 last week. A fourcourse dinner was served by Misses Myrtle O’Connor, Elsie and Agnas Bickle. A royal good time was enjoyed and the occasion will long be remembered as a pleasant memory. Foresters from out of town were Mr. and Mrs. Fred Taylor, Mrs. Elio Prough and Mrs. Vetters, of Kentland. The town park is now lighted by eight bulbs placed about (3ie eaves of the band stand. The members of the Federation are responsible for this new system of lighting in the park and desire the co-operation of everyone, big and little, in caring for the fixtures. It is gratifying to the Federation that the boys of the town are qjaking themselves a hand of scouts as it were to assist in projecting the lights. Charles Beal met with a very painful accident recently at his home in Crawfordsville, falling in his garage upon the cement floor and bruising one of his lower limbs very seriously. Miss Ida Beal went to his assistance Saturday morning and will probably spend her vacation there. Mr. Beal was ready to start with his daughter, Ruth, for a trip to Niagara and other eastern points, when he met with this unfortunate accident. =g
