Dr. Ward was the only man in the party and was the engineer. They were intending to -go to Wilkinsons roint on. tne river ana naa reacnea a point about a mile and a half fwim New Bern. ':? VWJ..v:'''' ' ' - f Thev were cruisifir alone ear the east- shore of tfie river having an enjoy able," social time, little thinking of the awful ' catastrophe that was awaiting them. When Dr. Ward struck a match to light his cigar and in-an instant the whole boat was in' a blaze. The scene that followed cannot be aptly described by any who were hot eye witnesses. Consternation took possession of all on boajd the bo but all were as calm as the circumstances would admit and re mained in the boat until it seemed thai the fire must get to the tank and an explosion occur. Fearing this, Dr. Ward shouted to them to jump and Mrs Haar and her daugeters leaped into the water . the cork cushions were thrown to them and they were helped to be kept afloat by these; presently a colored man who was fishing nearby came to tbeir assistance and by nit most timely appearance the party was aved from a world of perfl. Mrs. DuffyTIisS Fowler and her niece Nettie Daniels "remained in the boat and although the craft was burn ire fiercely they saw that they would joon be able to get into the boat com ing to their aid: they went from the burning boat to- a place ol safety in the negroes boat without get ting wet. Carol Daniels suffered a se vere burn on the limb She received the worse burns of the party Miss Irene Peck was also quite badly burned The ladies in the water were helped into-the boat Miss Adelaide Peck near ly drowned before she was rescued. The affair was seen from New Bern and the steamer General Tbom went to render assistance All the' party being cared for the crew got the engine and what remained of the boat and towed it to the dock at the end of. Pollock St rhe gasoline tank did not explode but was saved intact. It is difficult to ex plain' how the explosion was avoided as it seemed Inevitable. The party after reaching shore appeared not much (the worse for their terrible experience and beyond the schock incident to such an ordeal no serious trouble was made The boat' was entirely destroyed but may be possible to use it again. The rescuer whoever he may be was a friend in need. He did not give 'his name but hurried away as soon' as . he saw the victims safe, on shore , He act ed nobly and if found wil) be liberally rewarded.' - . - . , . ' ..

Several resignations of overseers were offered and accepted, After the routine business, Mr. C. E. Foy; chairman of the county commis sioners, arose to say that the last legis lature paijaed an act authorizing the convicts-to be worked in Craven county either by the county or such townships as cared to take them, Mr. Foy said that after every court the disposal of the convicts became a problem for the commissioners to solve and that here tofore the convicts were sent away to other counties, but that now they might be kept here and worked if the people wanted,it, to the benefit of the roads. There was some disposition to discuss the great cost of guarding and handling thS convicts, which brought up a con fusion of motions. Someone suggested that as the Eighth township would receive the most bene fit from good roads and that being thv richest township, it should take the initiation in the matter. It was shown that the tax valuation of the Eighth township was approximately four and one half million dollars, or about threi- fourth, that of all the townsnips com bined. The result of the discussion was that meeting of the magistrates of the Eighth township was called for Satur day, August 19th. Notice of which call was ordered to be printed in the Journal, and the Register of Deeds was requested to notify each magis trate by postal eard. J. J. Wolfenden, C. E. Foy, Thos F. McCarthy and S. W. Smallwood, were appointed a committee to collect data whereupon to expense an estimate as to what additional tax levy will be ncces- aarv to employ the convicts, and what the base of working them will be. The sentiment for good was largely predominant in the meeting, and with a little determination by those in favor of it, the convicts can be used on the roads and the Eighth township may set the other townships will quickly follow Anyway, the prospects for good road.s is just a little brighter, TIGER HUNTING. karlaa Ih Fierce llmt fcy Iml tatlas a Hoakey. To call a tiger the procoedlug was at follows: The niiklr, having fli-xt uwr tallied that a tiger was In tbo neighbor hood, would climb' Into a well branch ed, leafy tree situated near where ho supposed the tiger' to be, and after hid ing himself among the branches as best ho could would commence to Imitate tli chattering of a monkey sn'd break and drop, twigs In the way that mon keys do.

This would be the supreme moment, for If 'a tiger , were near It would often spring out In the hope -of snapping tp such a dainty, morsel as a young mou'key; and thru a bullet from the gun of the hidden niislr might mid its billet In the tiger's body.
