T-A-l ciw noon, immediately after the disaster, they tore the top from, a very small motor boat and went out into the water when it was at flood-tide ana In Its roughest condition. ' They suc ceeded In. rescuing Mr. Fortune, sec tion foreman at Kings Mountain, from a raft on which he had climbed. It Is true that the place was not as dangerous as some other . points might hare been, but the boat they used had been declared ."too little" by others to use. Such cool-headed men la a -- terror-stricken - crowd should not v be forgotten. . Equally deserving are Messrs. Dave Wright. John McLean and John Armstrong. These men landed a negro from tne top of a tree near Rock Island under unfavorable conditions and at a risk of their lives. .. ,. The number of lives lost has not yet been definitely determined. The list furnished by the railroad compa ny gives the only figures which can be depended upon at this time, and it is very probable that there are several others. On Wednesday morning searchers uncovered the body of Track Inspector Griffin a few hundred yards vbelow the scene of the catastrophe. The body was buried in sand and mud only one foot and a-shoulder being visible. It was reported that bis body was tied to a tree, but this was denied by Mr. John Huffstickler and Mr. Weathers, the men who found the body. Broth ers of the dead man were in Belmont at the time and Identified the body, A report 'has Just been- verified that a second white victim has been found far down the river. Mr. Priest Craig, who has been patrol- lag the stream for two or three days, succeeded in locating this body. At present it has not been identified owing to its badly decomposed con dition. Communication with the outside world is gradually being made. For tunately two lines of communication exist with Gestonla and the South, one over the Southern and the other over the P. N. Unas.

"The greatest asset which our coun try,can Jiave" said Senator Ransdell, "is the healthy American citizen, I and valuable as It may be to Increase the health of livestock and vegeta tion, it V of far greater Importance that we throw every possible safe guard about the health of the man who is responsible ror that livestock and. vegetation.

Enough money to pay the annual .expenses of every college student in the United States is abso lutely thrown away every year.' Senator Ransdell estimates the grand total loss, from typhoid, fever at sz71.93z.hbu pr annum, and the loss from malaria at 8694,904,750 per year; the total per capita loss from these two diseases being 89.46. ay comparative estimates it was shown that the United States Gov ernment appropriated 85.016,175 for the investigation and prevention of. the diseases of animal and plant life and only 11,917.566 for the in vestigation ana prevention oi tne diseases of man.

Stindinjron the end of the single remainteg'span of the big concrete bridge, nothing but mud. mire' and ponds of water can be seen for miles in every direction. Esti mates as to the depth the river reached range from 50 to 60 feet, which exceeds that of the flood of 1912 by 15 feet. -The damage and loss remaii determinable at this time, but tne one fact remains that each and every one has been hit by the flood to a greater or less degree. Four mills are standing Idle. No lights in town with the possibility of any doubtful. Farmers are among the worst suffer ers.

ATLANTA, Ga., July 24. The ambition of the Southern Railway Company was Btated as follows by President Fairfax Harrison in an ad dress before the Virginia Bankers Association at Old Point Comfort: "To see that unity of interest that is born of co-oieration between tne public and the railroads; to see per fected that fair and frank policy in the management of railroads whlcn invites the confidence of governmen tal agencies; to realize that liberali ty of treatment which will enable it to obtain the additional capital need ed for the acquisition of better and enlarged facilities incident- to tne demand for increased and better ser vice; and, finally, to take its nicne in the body politic of the South alongside of other great industries, with no more, but with equal liber ties, equal rights and equal oppor tunities." Adv. A 100 million dollar wage increase for men in freight and yard, service (less than one-fifth of all employes) is equal to a 5 per cent advance in all freight rates. The managers of the railroads, as trustees for the public, have no right to place this burden on the cost of transportation to you without a clear mandate from a public tri bunal speaking for you. ; The railroads have proposed the settle ment of this controversy either under the existing national arbitration law, or by refer ence to the Interstate Commerce Commis sion. This offer has been refused by the employes' representatives. Shall a nation-wide strike or &n investigation under trie Gov ernment determine this issue?
