THE EVENING REPUBLICAN,’ EENSSELAEE, INDIANA,

MAROONED ON ISLAND IN RIVER 22 DAYS.

Many Persons Passed, but/Couldn't Hoar His Calio—Darkiand Water His Food. 1 CODY, Wya—That ho wasi marooned on a small island in the Shoshone river for twenty-two days—constantly In sight of a bridge across which traffic was streaming, unable to reach either bank of the river because of an inability to swim and unable to make those on the bridge who saw his signals comprehend that he was doing more than waving them a friendly greeting to them—was the rather fanciful but apparently true story told local authorities by Dave Gootch. a stenographer of Jonesboro, Ark., who is now under the cars of a physician here. ' r '-“Gootch. asserts that near the , end of last month, after taking dinner at a here, hs went; out on the street. The day being exceedingly warm be wandered toward the river. He says that as be neared the river, he became dizzy from the heat and sat down under a trot, from which point he professed that his memory was s blank until be awoke In the. night, to rind himself on tho island in/the river. How he happened to. get on'the island and couldn’t got off by* the same means he gained the spot/ of land is a point overlooked in his narrative. Gootch claims to have remained on the island for twenty-two days, each day signaling to those. passing on the bridge, and'always unable to make thorn ■ understand that he wanted aid because the roar of the river drowned bls voice. s., He asserts he (had nothing to eat but the bark of shrubs growing on the island, that he wais almost crazed by his situation and that he frequently thought he would die. He was eventually rescued by a deputy sheriff after a small boy had reported seeing his body lying on the island. While the features of Gootch’s story tally, as to his, having been in Cody recently; disappearing after registering at; a hotel, and having been found on ‘ the island, there are a great many who wonder why he didn’t make some attempt to reach the mainland Many a man has learned to swim in less than twenty-two days, particularly when he had all day in which to practice.

They Bury Two Comrades Killed by Lightning to Revive Them. ELLSWORTH, Pa.—The superstition that a man struck by lightning will recover if he be buried at once caused the arrest of eighteen miners employed near here, but later they were released by order of Deputy Coroner Clifford 8. Patterson of Ellsworth. Twenty miners were in a cabin on Pigeon Creek when a bolt of lightning ■track John Smith of Bentleyville, Pa. ind Mike Simon of Marianna, Pa. Both were instantly killed. Without the formality of a coffin, the eighteen men dug a hole in the back yard and burled the men temporarily. When Dr. A, L. Kammer and Constable James Gilmore reached the cabin on a rufoor of the, accident, they saw no trace of the dead bodies and asked for them; The men pointed to a new mound and refused to dig up the bodies because they “would lose their life.” Constable Gilmore arrested the men and brought them here, after exhuming the bodies. When Deputy Coroner Patterson made an examination, he assured the constable the men had been killed by a lightning bolt and the prisoners were released.

Investigation has Shown that more linemen are injured than any other class of men employed in the electrical industry, but that only a small percentage of accidents are due to electric shock. * , Investigation has ruined the lark’s reputation for early rising. That much-celebrated bird is quite a sluggard, as it does not rise till long after chaffinches, linnets and a number of hedge-row (birds have been up and about for some time. Primary and grammar schools have bden established in practically all of the towns in Sinaloa wit ha population of 600 or more, and the matter of establishing primary ‘ schools in smaller places is now receiving much attention. A normal school located in CuUacan, the capital of the state, is now educating numbers of young women, who are to undertake instruction in primary and grammar grades.
