MADE BRAVE FIGHT FOR LIFE

Half-Breed Sailor, Wrecked Off Philippine*, Simply Determined Ha Would Not Die. Among the crew of the Polgat, a ship that foundered off Malabon, In the Philippines, was a half-breed sailor named Alejandro Lorenro. In the moment of the ship’s sinking he z was agile enough, and enough, i to leap dear of the wreck and escape , the deadly suction of the disappearing J vessel. He was alive and uninjured, but he was many miles from shore, and there was no help In sight. After swimming for an hour he found a hatch cover on which he rested. Then pushing the haftch cover nhend, he started for San Nicolas. He t was just reaching shallow water when the tide carried him out to sea again. As night came on the wind Increased and the waves tossed him and his liatdi cover hack and forth till he was almost exhausted, being washed toward the Cavite shore. For several hours he drifted in, but just as- his hope grew strong the tide and WtTO!” swept him in spite of his struggles once more out to sea. Something brushed against his leg. , He thought that It was a shark and screamed in fear. “It did not touch । me, or I should have gone mad,” he | said. The water was cold, the night , was dark and the rain beat down on । him. He heard a cry In the darkness, • and pushed his hatch cover in the di- | reetton whence the sound came. He j found a Filipino boy, another survivor of the wreck, clinging to an oil |

box. They drifted together. When daylight came they could see boats, but could not make themselves heard or seen. They were tortured by thirst, salt water got into their mouths, they drifted all day. Night came again. Soon after dark they saw the lights of a breakwater, and with new hopes noticed that the lights grew larger and more distinct. They were being washed toward the shore. But the boy could not hold out Taken with cramps, he lost his hold on the oil box and went down. The man was washed Into the middle of the bay and drifted all night. At dawn he was almost ready to give up, hut the wind and waves headed him for the shore and he took heart. Then he saw boats and used his last strength in trylng>to reach them. The boatmen saw him, were able to get to him in time and picked him out of the water. There was not much of the man left, and shrieking for water, he collapsed in the bottom of the boat. As he lay on a pallet, after he found himself able to talk again, his rescuers spoke of his wonderful endurance. Alejandro In reply said that, of course, he had jjone the best he could. He wanted to live, he said,— New York Herald.

Double Performers.

The other night Mrs. Carrie B. Adams, leader of Terre Haute’s community singing, and Maj. Birch Bayh, of the Indiana State Normal school, were on the same program. Now, Mrs. Adams did not. know that Major Bayh was the speaker of the evening, but’ she did know that he could sing. So when the audience seemed rather tired she turned to Mr. Bayh and said: “You sing the next verse as a solo.” Major Bayh seemed embarrassed, but complied with her request. Hardly had he taken his seat when his speech was announced. He arose, greeted his audience and then turned to Mrs. Adams: “Now, before I get through Pm going to call on you to play, *ring-around-the-rosy,’ or do some stunt out here on the floor,” he threatened. The audience laughed, but Mrs. Adams was evidently bluffed, for she immediately found it necessary to go in search of her coat —Indianapolis News.

Mixed Relationship.

Hebe is a double marriage at Salem, Ore., In which one bridegroom is both father-lndaw and stepfather to the other, while the other becomes both son-in-law and stepson. The doors of the county clerk’s office were just closing when two men appeared and asked if it were possible to obtain marriage licenses at so late an hour. Upon being assured that a license could be issued. August Kluge, aged: fifty-four, and a carpenter by trade, produced the necessary physical certificate and received a license to marry Mrs. C. K. Kayser, forty-five of thia city. Mr. Kayser’s mother is the prospective bride of Mr. Kluge, so* the couples probably will have no little troq> ble In trying to decide their relationship to each other.—St. Louis Republic. . ;

Untidy Streets.

The New York Merchants’ association has an antilltter bureau, that Is now engaged in a campaign against dlrtv streets. The cost of cleaning up refuse that should have been dropped into the very convenient containers, but is just dropped In the street instead, Is enormous. School children are reported as serious offenders, for they bring paper from the schoolroom and tear and scatter it upon the streets. That isn’t patriotic —-not a bit.

IUVVU OlVlij MUV <=» this writing. . Mr. Able stayed at Peregrine s Saturday night and took Don to church Sunday. The crowd seems to keep coming despite the cold -weather. / M. Anderson bought a fine brood sow at C. K. Brown’s sale Saturday. Anderson didn’t know how to feed a hog property so gave her scrambled eggs for Sunday breakfast. The first hog Anderson ofer owned so lets wish him luck. Surely some one will give him some pointer on the feed. The boiler went wrong at the school Sunday, so Bill Jeffries got steam up in his lizzie, and took a hike for Valpo to get repairs. He made excellent time and avoided the pipes from freezing up. A lot of serge goods were sold at Brown’s sale Saturday. Wm. Jeffries bought a bunch of 50 yds. but to our surprise a few bachelors went in on it pretty strong as follows: John Shirer, Buss Marble, Nic Rasmussen, were the chief buyers, these three buying over 300 yards. Of course some people didn’t tumble but they are now fixed before some woman pops the question.
