On that date he was sixty-four years old and entitled to lease the ser vice with a two thirds pension as long as he lives. Although he has served as captain thirty years, his period of service runs back farther. He first enlisted as a surfman on December 1, 1878. 1 Pew men in the United States Life Saving Service, now constituted as the Coast Guard, an auxiliary of the War Department, have seen more active or exciting service. He and his crews have saved many lives. Conspicuous among his several ad ventures with the wintry storms of the Atlantic Coast, was his achieve ment in rescuing three of the crew of five men on the coal barge Seth Low early in the month of January, 1895. Tne Seth Low went out of Sandy Hook on January 13, 1896, towed by the tug Ringleader, and in a storm made notable by great gales she broke her tow line. The tug could not reach her because of the high sea and she went ashore near Zach’s Inlet dur ing the night, beaching about 700 feet off. Captain Chichester's lookout saw the boat’s signals and the remainder of the night was spent in vain efforta to shoot a line from the shore to the distressed craft. When morning broke the men on the beach saw that the masts had gone by the board and no line could be fastened, even if one could be sent that far. The crew could be seen on the craft and the one hope for their lives was to launch the surf boat. The sea was a terrific one and again and again Cap tain Chichester and his crew were thrown back. The crews of the Short Beach and Jones Beach stations lent their effort and the aurfboat got away. ; Then their hardships began. They ; could not go alongside the Seth Low but three of the crew of the barge tied ; a line to the unconscious form of their ■, cantain, Dottridge, whose clothes were ■ frozen, and he was taken into the life- men’s boat still unconscious, in which condition he remained until land was ^ finally reached. The three men jumped into the sea and two were rescued after long and d vigorous efforts by i Captain Chichester and his men. Oliver Dottridge, a seaman hearing tlie same name as his captain, was drowned before he could be picked up. J ® i The fifth man of the crew, Joseph Johnson, had died from exposure Oe- fore this. His body was found lashed ^ j to the tiller the next day. i It was half past eleven in the fore- j «gi i noon when the seamen launched their : boat. It was Jate in the afternoon T when they started for i bore, only to P* | be driven off repeatedly by the big , i surf. They were compelled to row i @ fourteen miles to the Oak Beach sta ® lion near the Fire Island Inlet before @ j they could make a landing. Their clothes were frozen and some of the lifesavers were in had shape. The trip took them four hours. Captain Chichester was born in Amityville in 1825. His parents were Ebenezer and Hattie Chichester. In 1873 he was married to Hattie Fair- weather, who has been making her home recently with her daughter. Mrs. Henry W. Leigh, Ketcham Avenue. They will live at their home on Austin . Avenue when Captain Chichester. en ters on ins well-earned period of. re- ! tirement. To Improve S hell Fisheries Congtessman Frederick C. Hicks, t. rough his secretary, J. Huy ler Elli • 1 son, is sending the following letter to the oystermen and others intereste I in fishing. The hill he refers to h ^ h I so reproduced: Esteemed Friend : Realizing the great inijuirtance of the shellfish industry which in the mid lie Atlantic States produces some 23,000,000 bushels of the finest oysters in the world, besiil. s large quantities . f clams and scallops, 1 have intro duced into Congress the enclosed hill and am exerting all my energies lor its passage. I'he value of this industry to the citizens of Long Island cannot be over estimated and I fe-sl that every effort should he made to increase the yield and insure the propogation of the catch. Our section has not received proper consideration in the past and too little attention generally has been paid to the conditions under which shellfish thrive and now that the sup ply is being threatened by unknown causes, the Government should lend its assistance to ascertain the reasons for the failure, for those directly inter ested have neither the means or the facilities to make a scientific study of the subject. I have solicited and been promised the support of all Congress men coming from marine districts, ! and to strengthen my position wh^n 1 appear before the Fisheries Commit tee, I ask that you write me a letter expressing your views an J also that you ask others who a re interested to write me. in order that I may present all the letters and thva convince the Committee of the necessity of passing 1 the measure. The amount of the appropriation , asked for has been made small in order j to insure its passage, but is sufficient in the opinion of the Bureau of Fish eries to make a proper study of the I subject. I hope you will give the ! m a tter your prompt attention. Assur- ’ ing )ou of my hearty co-operation in all m a tters pertaining to the welfare : of the district which has honored me i w ith its commission as member ot j Congress, I am with high regards, Cordially yours, Frederick C. Hicks. To provide additional assistants in the Bureau of Fisheries, Department of Commerce, for the purpose of aid- i jng in the development of the shellfish industries. Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the Unit- ; ed States of America in Congress as- : sembled. that two additional assist ants, with salaries of 32400 and $2000, respectively, be. and the same are hereby, authorized in the Bureau •of Fisheries, Department of Commerce, to enable that bureau to conduct need-' j ed investigations and experiments for ' the development and improvement of the oyster and other shellfish indue John J.

Next K ikor'a I*rug Ktuea ^0Chase the Chill- Burn Kerosene HERE'S nothing like a go<xl oil X heater for warming up chilly places and helping out the regular heating system in extra cold weather. An efficient oil heater (we recommend the Perfection Smokeless Oil Heater) will give ten hours of clear, odorless heat on a gallon of kerosene. It will not smoke and it will not give off odor, so long as you are careful to fill it with reliable fuel. The best way to make sure of always getting safe, clean, dependable fuel is to buy it by name. Say “ Socony” (So-CO-ny) to the grocer’s hoy when he conies to take your oil can. Socony Kerosene Oil is the name of the Standard Oil Company of New York’s best kerosene. It is a quality product—so much better than ordinary kerosene that it is decidedly worth asking for. If your dealer sells genuine Socony Kerosene he will display the Socony sign in his window. !.wok for sign. It is a quality sign and one of the easiest ways to recognize a reliable dealer. We recommend the following oil burning devices as the best of their kind: New Perfection Oil Cooks!oves and Water Heaters, Perfection Oil Heaters, Rayo Lamps and Lanterns.
