HMILKY What Would Ton T>«? Fonr young people from McHenry, two boys and two girls, had an exper­ ience last Sunday evening that would make a big hit in the eopaie suppliment the Chicago American. The four young people in question, it seems, had passed a few hours at Johnsbnrgh and on their way home, via gasoline launch, one of the two fellows, who was "doing the engineer act," suddenly became Violently sea sick. In .spite of all the sympathy that his "shipmates" extend­ ed, the poor fellow found it a hard task to withstand the fierce attack of that dizzy feeling and soon after was occupy­ ing the lower deck of the boat. Just about the time that the engineer had retired for the night the1 engine refused to work and, altho the combined efforts of the three mates were used to the very best of their knowledge, the engine proved itself true to the captain, (who was at this time dreaming of the angels) refusing to perform its duties. As the hours were getting far past the regular bed time, the crew set out to frame up ways and means Of getting to shore. After many minutes were spent in their attempt to solve the mystery, the bright thought of carrying the girls to shore strnck the young man and the next minute §aw him performing the heroic deed. The water at the point where the rescue took place is not only quite deep, but, according to the brave hero's own story, was also just a trifle oool on this pariicular night. However, the girls were thankful to get to shore and so was the fellow who did the wading. Another boat picked up the party a little later on and brought them to town. The engineer and the ship that were apparently in sad distress did not report in dock until the following fore­ noon. RINGWOOD. 3. C. Ladd Chicagoed Monday. L.
