A TERRIBLE TALE OF SEA RELATED

Four Sailors, of a Crew of Six, Rescued by a Revenue Cutter.

ADRIFT FOR SIX WEEKS

ARE NOW SAFE IN AN ALASKAN PORT AND THEY TELL A MOST REMARKABLE TALE OF THEIR SUFFERINGS.

(American News Service) Seward, Alaska, March 12. After Blx weeks of terrible suffering at sea, four of the crew of six of the steamer Faral Ion's small boat arrived here today on the revenue cutter Tohoma. On January 7 the six left the wrecked Farallon In Cooks Inlet in a desperate attempt to summon aid. The other two were safe. The four men brought here are second mate Gus Swanson, Albert Bailey, a passenger and Seaman Charles Peter bob and Otto Nelson, i The other two of the small boat's crew were Captain Wedding, who was left at Kodiak and Charles Bourne, who is now at Kafliar Bay. Bourne lives at Afonak. Wedding was master of the Sea Wolf, a launch. Terrible Hardships. From the time the men left the Farallon on January 7 they suffered terrible hardships. The first night out they were compelled to beach at Ursus Cove when threatened with destruction by a rising storm. The next day they put out In1 a blinding snowstorm. The wind changed, blowing a gale. The ice coating of the boat grew so fast that the little craft was in danger of going down, and the - men themselves worked in casings of ice. At the end of ihe second day the small boat was almost sunk by masses of ice off Cape

A GREAT CAST1I1G FLU 1

With a capacity of turning out 500 cars a year with its present plant and with everything under full headway in its new location, the prospects for a particularly bright business year for the Pilot Motor Car company are exceedingly flattering. The finishing touches on the old Kramer Manufacturing company building, opposite the Pennsylvania depot, the company's new home, have all been completed, and with the installation of the new machinery, the Pilot Motor Car company has launched into the automobile field with one of the best moderatepriced cars in the country. At the Dayton Automobile Show in Dayton, O., March 1 to 5th, the Pilot car was exhibited and attracted unusual attention and much favorable comment. Many sales resulted to the company as the result of the exhibit and the car was conceded by many to possess numerous important fine points usually not found on the more moderate priced machine. Meet All Requirements. The machine is exhibited daily on the streets and in all tests it has met

boat went down with their supplies, but the six, in a terrific struggle, succeeded in reaching shore in the dark. All Frost Bitten. All night they lay exposed and exhausted, but reaching the cliff above the beach, they threw up an improvised tent the next day and got a fire started. Frost bitten every one, they lay huddled together to keep warm for 3S hours, while a blizzard raged about the little tent After that they found a camp within two miles of where they had landed. It was that of Michael Pablow, a trapper, and there they found a small schooner. Pablow refused to put out, but shares his provisions and on Feb. 7 they set to sea, going to Kaguak. Wedding, Bourne, Peterson and Swanson were helpless. At Kaguak they dug an old row boat out of the ice and in that went to Klafiam bay where they got their first meat, a seal. Their only other food was whale oil and dried fish. On February 22 they went to Cape Ugat, and on March 5, proceeded to Ugansk, where the Tahoma found them.

Too Rsaliatio. During a performance of "Captain Lapalisse" at a Valencia theater some years ago an incident occurred which for lifelike effect left nothing to be desired. During the said play some of the actors mingle with the spectators in order to co-operate from the body of the house. Mo sooner had Msralles, the actor, taken his seat in the stalls than a daring pickpocket robbed him of his gold watch. Miralles seized the man by his coat collar and called out in deep bass voice: "Police! Help! Thieves!" The audience, taking this little episode to be part of the performance, roared with laughter. Even the policemen joined in without stirring hand or foot. "This is no farcer cried the actor in tones of despair. "The fellow has got my watch!" The voice sounded so natural that the audience broke into loud applause at "such excellent fooling." Meanwhile the thief managed to break away from his captor and escaped.

A Judicial Export. The native with a stogie met the native with a pipe. "Howdy. Zeb?" quoth the stogie native. "Hear 'bout th fuss down to th courthouse?" "Nope." drawled the man with the pipe. "What was it about r "Why. Jim Simpson has been suin' Abner Hawley for alienatin' th' affections of his wife, an' Jedge Musgrove told th jury to bring in a verdick of 6 cents damages, 'cause he thought that was all the damage was worth to Jim. An' Jim's wife got mad an threw a chair at th' jedge, an' he had her arrested an' put in th' cooler." "Cut didn't th Jedge go a leetle too far when be fixed her value so low?" "Not at aU, not at all! You see. he was her first husband." Cleveland Plain Dealer.

Singer and Orator. "It I had ray way. Dr. Mtfcnamura once confessed to an interviewer. "I should be singing in Carmen' instead of making speeches from the trtury bench, but unfortunately the Briii.- i public thinks a great deal more of a man who can make a bad speech than man who can sing a good song." Westminster Gazette.

iriaT . - r was critically tested and sev

eral changes made, and each change was for its benefit. It was then put to the severe test of travel. Over 1,000 miles were traversed and the car found to bear up splendidly under all conditions, such as hills, bad roads, mud and water It was found satisfactory and adopted as the model for the output of the factory. Five different styles have been adopted, including roadsters and touring cars. The priciple of each style will be the same, but the different styles are being manufactured in order to meet the various demands. The wheels are larger than in the ordinary car and the center of gravity is very low. Both of these points were adopted several years ago by the French and German manufacturers and the American manufacturers are now beginning to accept this style as the proper one. The material used in the machine is the best Each piece of machinery must be of an approved standard and is tested very carefully before becoming a part of any car. Defective parts are cast aside and the metal is metal, and recast. The car is very neat in appearance, and its . durability has been, proven. The upholstering is given particular attention.

Unfamiliar Ground. The tourist who had secured a guide within a few moments after his arrival in Rome spoke crisply to the man. "I've only got an hour or so to spare for Rome," he said, "and I want to see just two thingsone's St Peter's, and the other is the Forum. Take me to them both as quick as you can." The guide engaged a carriage, into which the tourist jumped, and after a few words from the guide to the driver the equipage started off at a brisk rate. Suddenly it stopped, and the tourist ceased his fire of questions abruptly. "Hop out," he said to his guide, urging him by a slight push. "Now, which is this the Forum or St Peter's ?" Exchange.

Brain Spring. Two Frenchmen stood admiring a pastoral scene from the brush of a young American. It chanced that the an: -t was In the gallery. "And how did monsieur ever create such a wonderful painting?" asked one iu broken English. "Ah," said the artist, with a faraway lor, "that picture was the offspring of my brain." The other Frenchman was interested. "What did he ssr, Henri?" T can hardly explain." whispered the other excitedly; "he said ze picture was one spring off his brain. - Ees eet any wonder sat ze Americans act queerly when they have springs on their brains?"

agents to whom consignments have Deen made. Especial attention is being paid to the middle west. and the south as the territory for "The Pilot" to invade. The company will employ about WO men who will devote their attention exclusively to the manufacture of particular parts of the machines and in testing the mout after completion. Each man will be an experienced mechanic. The equipment has been installed, or practically so, and all of it is now on hand.

The car will be thoroughly advertised and one of the schemes already devised is that of placing a large electric sign on the building so that it may be seen by the hundreds of passengers cm the Pennsylvania railroad as they pass through the city daily. The company has exceptional shipping facilities. A switch from the Pennsylvania runs to the plant and cars may be loaded direct from the factory to the box car. Many orders are now demanding the efforts of the workmen.

business to escape, is being told in the East by Frank Bennett, the New Jersey detective who recently came to Chicago to deliver to the packers here the "polite letter" informing them they had been indicted and asking them to kindly step over into Hundson county. New Jersey, and be tried. "I served most of them personally, including J. Ogden Armour, A. Watson Armour and the Swifts and the others. They treated me royally. Most of them knew just when to expect me, had luncheon or dinner all ready for me and always invited me out." Such was the statement of Bennett In New York, as carried by the Associated Press last night. "Of course I couldn't accept all of their kindnesses and I pleaded a rush of busines3as -an excuse." continued

"Mr. Bennett delivered a most pome letter in a most polite manner, and of course we would not be exceeded in courtesies, so we invited him into our lunchroom and gave him all the food he could eat. "This evidently was quite a novelty to him. and from what 1 hear of his tales of sumptuous repasts, marked an epoch in his career as a detective." A canvass last night of the packers
