Ho says that tho life savors came scurry ing over tho sands, sovon of thorn, with nil sorts of tacklo and ropes, to find that tho passengers had res-j cued tho car ahead of thom. It had I buried Itself in tho sand to tho en- gluo bed and was rapidly going out of eight when they sot to work, Thoy brought It back Intact to the seawall. Another machlno was caught down lu tho breakers and. beforo belnp ie6ouod, had souq so far In tho sand that a "deadman" was set up on the sjipre to mark tho spot whero tho car sjtould go completely under.
