feEYN MAWE, Pa , Oct. 13. Among
tno girls of the fnhmun class nt iiryn
" Mawr who are recovering today from
the effoets of "rushine" Ty tlio sonn
' omoreg is Miss Helen Taft, dnughtor
of tho republican presidential eondi
date. Although a mysterious edict was
' promulgated that miss rare was not
to be subjeet to any "rough" treat
ment, she was compelled to do " stunts
that signalized her admission into the
baby class of the college.
The gjrls who subjected Miss Taft
and her "freshio" comrades to such
indignities, as being fed by a spoon,
compelled to wear variegated hosiery
and to plunge into a wnterless bathtub.
are careful to explain that Miss Taft
: was not hazed, but "just rushed."
"I did not escape the initiation cer
' emonies," laughingly admitted the can
r didato's daughter. "All freshmen are
heirs to these things and I came in
' for iny sharo of it with the other vii
time."

HALF MAD WITH HUNGER
MEXICAN- EATS ASPHALT
LOS ANGELES, Cab, Oct. 13.
Antonio -Oastnnio is nt the hospital re
" covering from the effects of n meal of
asphalt paving which he ate. Half mad
with hunger, the Mexican surprised and
frightened a paving gang by dashing
up to a barrel of asphaltum and raven
ously devouring the unpalatable mix
ture. Seizing a huge pieco of the hard
ened material, he kept the workmen
away from him while lie ate a large
quantity of softer snbslnnee iu the
barrel.
Finally a policeman took chargo of
thehungry man and sent him to the
hospital where he was given proper
food. Explaining his strange actions
today, Castanio declared that he was
not tfrnzy, but ho said he was on the
verge of insanity from starvation and
decided that if he had to die he would
end his life with a stomach full of
something even if it was nsphnltum.

BERLIN, Oct. 13. Probably the
most remarkable cxjierienco in tho his
tory of ballooning was reported toilav
by N. Tf. Armdd, tho pilot and If. 0. ,
(lewat, assistant pilot of the balloon
St. Louis, one of the three American
entrants in the international race for
tho Bennett cup, when they were hind-1
ed at C'uxhaven, after having fallen
into the north sea at midnight.
lue two Americans were enveloped
in the folds of the great gas bag, which
was being lashed by the waves when a
searchlight from the steamer Laugerood
happened to rest roou tho great dark
bjeet, which attracted the attention of
tlio lookout. When it was seen that
men wero iu danger of drowning a
small boat was pyt out and the aero
nauts were rescued, though not until
they were aboard tho ship were they
:ible to make it clear to the rescuers
how they happened to be out in the
middle of the sea floating on a great
loose bundle of canvass.
Under Water Twice. "
Both men undoubtedly would have
been drowned in a few minutes if they
had not fallen within range of the light
of tho passing steamer. They already
had been under tho wnter oneo or twice
and wero struggling blindly with no
hope of escaping death in the water,
when the sudden gleam of the search
light brought aid.
The men had no idea they wero over
the ocean, as there was a heavy fog
They were traveling at n rapid rate of
speed, but were going along comfort
ably and without thought of danger,
when a rapid fall of the temperature
eapst.ed (he balloon.
The big bag began to rapidly descend.
The pilot and his assistant threw out
ballast, but at about midnight they
realized that they would go down rap
idly and that throwing out bntflast
seemed to have little effect.
Cut Looso Basket
It was pitch dark, when suddenly
they heard the roaring of the waves
below nnd realized their horrible pre
dicament. In desperation, they were
cutting loose the basket in hope the
bag would tli'ii float, and they cling
to the rigging, when they struck the
water.
The aeronauts telegraphed to the race
committee that they were unhurt, giv
ing an account of their thrilling expe
rience. The last heard of the St. Louis before
tho accident was when she passed over
Cnlnu nt. H):"iO o'clock vesterdav morn
ing. ").") miles southwest of Frankfort-on-Odor.
The balloon was then travel
ing in a southwesterly direction, but
the wind changed nnd drove the balloon
with great speed town rd the Nort h
sea.

At Christian Church Sunday.
Very interesting services were held
it the Christian church nt both hours
if worship. The large chorus led by
M r. Kdmeads rendered several splen
did hymns in creditable manner, which
were much appreciated by those present.
No one can listen to Mr. Kdmeads'
solos without being moved to desire a
better life. Those who love to hear
good singing may find it nt the Chris
tian church.
The morning subject, "Who Ts On the
Lord's Side?" was listened to by an
appreciative audience. Tlio evening sub
ject was "What Ts a Man" Worth!"
The spenker said in part:
"The world is accustomed to estimate
man's worth by his material posses
sions, l ho true standard or measure
ment is not money, but moral and spirit
ual worth. Find out what estimate
an's Creator puts upon his creature.
In the estimation of Clod, man is worth
more than an entire world. Notice the
estimate that a mother puts upon her
babe. You might lay all the world nt
her feet in exchange for her babe, but
she would spurn your offer.
'Man's own estimate of his worth is
sometimes very great, but never great
enough. Many throw nway their op
portunities for development, growth
and moral and spiritual culture, think
ing only of the sensuous, the material.
All of man's powers should be saved
for Christ. Man has power to reason,
to will, to decide between right and
wrong, finite spirit or soul power, and
find 's image, although much marred. All
these powers should be brought under
the subjection of (lod should be saved
for Christ. Christ was the highest type
of man. Hod's final estimate of man's
worth was shown in the vicarious suf
ferings and death of Jesus, the Christ.
No greater demonstration could be giv-
, yet many do not value their life ns
rth saving."
