midnight the weather was pleasant and all
weut well with the ship, although we had
trouble iu keeping the pump in the forward
fire room from being choked with coal. Ihe
wind continued to increase in force until perhaps
3 o'clock a in., when it reached its
height. Captain Ch.ttendcn, who was on
deck, almost as soon as I was,pice his attention
to the pumps ami especially to priming
the centrifugal pump in the forward lire
room. There were many new leaks When
a heavy seastruek the sides the plates leaked
at the "butts acd seams, showing that after
the lire they had resumed their former appearance,
but were not tight. There was at
the mam inast au inch of tbwartship vibration
and only half an inch of longitudinal vibration.
"While making this examination, about
4:30 a. m., Captain Chittenden was thrown
down and fell on the chain, hurting his side
and back enough to temporarily disable him. j
He continued to give us valuable advice. At I
3 a. m., we made signal to the Vulcan and |
Merritt to go to windward, which they did as
well as they could. The pump for keeping
the water from the forward compartment
was driven by a belt, and when the sea broke I
over the bows the bt It became wet aud slip- j
ped. As soon as the water was up to the J
floor place in the forward fire room the I
rolling of the ship swashed Into the coal I
bunkers and carried the coal out. choking
the pump and carrying the floor plates about, !
which made it difficult and dangerous work
there. About 3:30 a. m., it was reported that
water was coming into one of the starboard j
forward coal bunkers and running into the ,
tire rooms. Where the water came from we j
do not know.
"About 3 o'clock the 11-inch gun in the after
turret ran out and in twice. When it recoiled
the second time something gave way
aud it salt led to extreme elevation and remained
stationary. At 1 p. ro. rapt. Chittenden
asked me to signal the Vulcan to cast
oil the Merrill's tow lines and have tu<- Jlerritt
come alongside. I then assumed tiecommand,
told tiio men what was to be done
aud assigned them stations. I told the chief
engineer to start urn engine 10 iuu iue >uican
iu keeping' ur head up. lit? did so, but
it could run but a short time with the steam
.._^e had. We signalled the Vulcan. 'We are
about to al audon ship; try to keep us bend
to wind.' I ordered Capt. Lecato to take
charge of the lee surf boat and when it was
lowered to the rail, ordered ( apt. Chittenden
into it. Against bis repeated protests he
was placed in ttie boat with his son. This
boat was unable to react; the lines we had
astern, but the M?rritt picked it up, and after
taking ('apt. Chittenden aboard, towed
the boat to our iee quarteraud repeated this
manoeuvre ta.'h trip, forming a lee for the |
boat to conie here and then towing them
back. She was splendidly bandied. Krom 2
until 5 the work of transferring the crew
continued.
"With the exception of three men who got
drunk and and gave much trouble, all the
crew behaved well. Every man did his duty
and my orders were instautly navy. Wiilard
Crossett. buglar, was signalman, and was as
cool us possible. He ma > no mistakes and 1
was very useiui 10 iue as a messrnspr. auoui
4.30 he made signal: 'Hau^ oa to the wreck
until you arc suru sh* is sinking," to whi<'h
the Vulcan replied. "We will hold on until
she sinks or t arts the tow line." The last
signal he made was: 'These two boats will
take ali.' After that 1 had to go aft to force
the drunken men overboard and about 5
o'clock we were ull ofT. It was perhaps o:3!)
o'clock when we reached the Merritt. While
she was getting in the surf boats the Vulcan
slipped the hawser of the Infanta Maria
Teresa. I expect that the wreck
dragging off to port brought all the
the strain on the port ornice ana startea
the hits. When the boats were in, the Merritt.
at my request, started to speak to tho
Vulcan, but was unable to reach her, and
she apparently did not hear our whistle.
The Merritt then returned toilnd tb* wreck,
but could not do so. The search continued
until 1 p. m.. the following day, when sho
~ * headed for Charleston.

The answer to this question will depend
much upon the point of view. Those who
see most of professed Christians who are so
occupied with business, or so engrossed in
the excitements of fashionable life, as to
show only a formal interest in religion, will
be likely to answer it in the negative.
Those, especially among the elderly, who
recall the time when a deeper consciousness
of personal sinfulness usually accompanied
conversion, and when the language
of confession and penitence was more common
and natural, probably will hold the
same opinion. On the other hand, those
who appreciate the deep and unfaltering
piety of many Christians of today, the great
modern growth of the missionary spirit ami
activity, the notable increase in the number
and amounts of philanthropic and benevolent
gifts, and the multitudinous modern
lorrcs 01 service reuaereu to in" poor
and needy, all of which often call
for severe personal sclf-sncrillce, will
assert that the negative is true.
It is an ago of extremes. Each answer to
the question is partly correct, because each
is based upon fact, llarely in the history of
the church upon earth has the consecration
of large numbers of professed believers been
more shallow ami fruitless. It may be genuine
but it is stunted. Yet.probably, never
has the church so fully and zealously appreciated
and attempted to do its duty. Seldom,
if ever, has the portion of earnest.prayerful,
sympathetic, self-forgetful Christians in the
ranks of the church been as large as at present.
Seldom, if ever, have they aceompli-hed
so much substantial spiritual service as today.
The church not only raises more
money for Christ's work on the whole, and
semis mure workers out into tne worm
to save it. but she administers the
afTairs of local parishes and communities
more efficiently than ever.
She is a long way from appreciating her full
p< wrs and doing her whole possible work.
She is not as permeated by d"ep and vital
piety a> she should be. Self-sU'-rillee still

always die grandly. They don't talk much.

A Father's Story. J
From the Evenimj Crescent, Applet on, TPt.t. t
A remarkably cure from a disease which ]
has generally wrecked the lives of children,
and left them in a condition to which death
itself would be preferred, has attracted a
great amount of attention nmong the residents
of the west end of Appleton.
The ease is that of little Willard Creech,
son of Richard D. Creech, a well known
employe of one of the large paper mills in
the Fox River Valley, The lad wasnttacked
by spinal disease and his parents had given
up all hope of his ever being well again
when, as by a miracle, be)was healed and is
now in s hool as happy as any of his mates.
Mr. Creech, the father of the boy. who,
resides at 1062 Second street. Appleton,
Wisconsin, told the following story:
d?
IIc Goes In School.
"Our boy was absolutely helpless. His
lower limbs wero paralyzed, ami when we
useil electricity he could not feel it below
his nips. Finally wo let the doctor go us
he did not seem to help our son and we
nearly gave np hope. Finally my mother
who lives in Canada wrote advising th*?use
of l)r. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People
and I bought some.
"This was when our boy had been on the
stretcher for an entire year and helpless for
nine months. In six weeks after taking
the pills we noted signs of vitality in
his legs, and in four months he was able to
go to school.
"It is two years since he took the llrst of
the pillsaud he is at school now just as
happy and w dl as any of the other children.
It was nothing else in the world
that saved the boy than Dr. Williams1 Pink
Pills for Palo People."

f Science recently, outlining his inves- i[
illations of atmospheric conditions. J>
'he first of these, entitled "The Strue- ij
lire of Cyclones and Anticyclones." is ji
) truth the continuation of one given ij
ist year at the Detroit meeting of the a
spol iation. The paper ol' last year ?
tttlined the mathematical conditions; a
lie present one gave some of the re- v

THE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF FIGS
is due not only to the originality and
simplicity of the combination, but also
to the care and skill with which it is
manufactured by scientific processes
known to the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, and we wish to impress upon
all the importance of purchasing the
true and original remedy. As the
genuine Svrup of Figs is manufactured
bv the California Fio Syrup Co.
only, a knowledge of that fact will
assist one in avoiding the worthless
imitations manufactured by other parties.
The high standing of the Cam- ^
forma Fio Syrup Co. with the medical
profession, and the satisfaction '
which the genuine Syrup of Figs has <
given to millions of families, makes j
