HIE SAV^S MSf. Ttiree Member* tut * Crew bM Their Jtirta in lako Mfohl«»n. T&e> following fs a thrilling; description of the qircumatances attendant upon th» lost of three'of & life-saving ctaif on lake Michigan: Sunday night, when the wind lwgsm to blow a gale from the' northwest, the sjhponer A J, Dewey, of Manistee, was Jylug at Pierport waiting to load Inm. tier for Chicago. The tug A. P. 'Wright was wfth.heiyand* when the big seas were driven Inshore both were compelled to leave. The tug got a line from tho schooner and started to tow her to Manistee for shelter, but the gale kept increasing in violence and the veisol labored so heavily that she give • sad.Ion lurch, and the strain on the hawser caused it to part. One end was swept into the wheel of the tog, rendering it helpless, and the schooner was lost sight of ID the Winding snow storm. At about 3 o'clock, after tossing about in the furious ions for two hours, the tug strueK and rolled over on har side. The crew consisted of five men— Cu.pt Sarn Johnson, Kngineer Thomas Vttughan,Lineman Henry Danforth, Fire- Wan August Hegerson, and Steward Harry Barrell. After clinging to the wreck for three hours daylight etfirie, but with it there were no signs of relief. The men by this time were frozen, and, knowing that they could not hold on much longer, Danforth volun- teered to make an effort to reach the shore. He was a powerful swimmer, but' his Inuscuiar arms and iron will were tnr.lly a fair match with the foaming brtnkers that thundered along the beach. But he fought the battle manfully and was buoyed up by the feeble cheers of his shipwrecked companions, who eagerly watched tho struggling form of the hero at he rose and fell with the waves until he f ained tho shore. Stopping but fora moment ) salute those who were still on the wreck Danforth made his way to a farmhouse, and, after uttering a few word* fell fainting to the floor! He was picked up and kindly cared for, and is out of danger. The farmer made out that a vessel was in distress aiid ac ciee set off for Manistee. He reached -there, with his horse, reeking with foam, and in a lew minutes the lire-saving crew werehurrying to the rescua with their beach apparatus. . On reaching a point abreast \Of the wreck the howitzer was trained into line and a well directed shot sent the Hfe line over the teg. It was within easy reaoB-of the men.srid theyhauledthe hawser aboard • and made it fast. The breeches buoy was then teat out, and the first to come ashore wos^youne Darrell, who is only ' a btijp. The hflwjjeic had not beuip matJ&'taut: and' tfiei sfaek permitted the buoy to sag . tbrough the surf. Darrell was msensibie ^«Sjj»*»5te«^^a^p^rs#^ eovering;. The others wjeresafelj? taken itioia the wreck, one at a time, Captain Johnson •belBg the last In the meantime another thrilling scene was being enacted sixteen miles southjof Man- • feiee. At about eight o'clock the Dewey, having been driven before the gale, arrived off Big Point an Sable with a flag of distress flying iii her rnlzzen rigging. The patrol of the life-saving station there sighted the sig- nal, and in a few minutes the entire crew were pulling through the boiling seas. They had covered about one-bsdf ofthe distance be- tween the shore and the veisel when the flag was suddenly hauled to the truck of the fore- mast. The Dewey then steered away on her course, and the life-saving crew, realizing that thqy bad been tricked by a vessel that simply wanted a tug, started to return to their station. They had pulled but a short distance when their lifoboat struck a bar and capsized. The entire crew was thrown into the sea, and the boat did not right again. Ori-in Hatch and John Smith, surf men, were drowned. It is thought that they roust have beeii struck by the edge of the boat, as both iustantly sank from sight.Cap- tain Flynn, who was in command, climbed upon the bottom of the boat with the aid of Surfman Ludwig. He appeared to be in- jured, and was gasping as lf.in great agony. The rest of the crew—Michael King, Mat- thew Yore, and Thomas Wishart—caught hold of the Hfe lines and held on until the boat was dragged ashore. Captain FlyriD was taken into the station, but soon died. TOKTTJKING OHIJSTAMEN'. Fifty Masked Men Bob the Inhabl- ._ tants of a Chinese Settlement. A most daring midnight robbery has b«eu committed at Morita, the first siding on the line of the Texas and Pacific railway, ten mileswestof Big Springs, Texas. The only in- habitants of the place are a gang b£ fifty Chi- nese section' hands and a white foreman. About* midnight the Chinamen were waited upon by fifty masked men, who domanded their money. Upon refusing to give up their hard-earned cash, they were, one at a time, huag up by their cues until they gave u p their money. The robbers, thinking they had not cot aft the cash in the camp, returned and tortured one of tho Chinamen by holding him on a red \hot stove until his comrades gave np the balance of their money, some $T>0O in all. One celestial bad his cue cutoff, and was otherwise horribly tortured. THE brother of the wife of a very well known United States Senator is at present driving a street cab in Washington.

A Stntteror'g Printed System. A prominent manager of one of tho largest and most prosperous fife, insur- ance companies states that some twenty- flve years ago, when as a timid youth, he went into the business at the suggestion of an uncle because of his aptness at figures, he stuttered so fearfully that .he' could not carry on a conversation, and consequently he found^it very difficult to achieve any success m a pursuit that required so much explanation and arith- metical demonstration. In the emer- gency of failure or leaving the business he invented a system of elaborate printed explanations, which succinctly stated all the facts and data which it would nave taken a clay for him t o verbally say, even if he had secured his victim, in a corner by a rope. This printed system wa * so successful that it led to the general adoption by all the companies, whose circulars give so much detail that every- thing is plain to the' dullest comprehen- sion, and now conse luently the labor of- the agent is much siinpiiSecl. It should be added that the ingenious youth, now one of the most influential citizens, has since comp'eteljr cured himself of the habit of stuttering by the process of tapping or beating time with his fingers Whilespeaking. —Hew York Times. ' Collecting Postage Stamps. The mania for collecting postage stamps seems to be gaining-more ground than ever in France, writes the Paris correspondent ojf the London Tehgrapli. Among the most famous collectors in France is a man who has over d million postage slamps preserved in 180 richly bound volumes, and another who keeps two clerks employed in classifying and arranging his enormous collection. Added to this, there arc i n Paris about ISO wholesale firms employed in the trade, and one of the best known of these has lately offered from £20 to £i0 for certain stamps. Tuscan, postage stamps dated before 1860 will be paid for at the rate of £ 5 each, while stamps from Mauritius for the year 1847 fetch £80, and French stamps of 1849 are quoted at £1 each.
