An Act of Heroism That Saved a Wo- man and Her Sick Husband From Death When Stranded on a Winter Night Amid the Snow Clad Peaks. The hardships to which people are exposed in the far north give frequent occasion for the display of heroism. In the pages of “Trailing and Camp- ing In Alaska” Mr. Addison M. Powell tells of the rescue of a woman and her husband who were stranded on. the mountains in an Alaskan winter. A dog team ga!ioped up and stopped in front of the only pretense of a hotel in Valdez. The night was dark, as the northern winter nights always are when the moon is not shining. The dogs immediately lay down, almost ex- hausted from their long trip, and the two men were soon surrounded by in- quiring friends. One of the two said: “What do you think. fellows? We passed a women just this side of Saw- mill Camp. She wrs pulling a sled, on which was her sick husband. We re- monstrated against her crossing the glacier, but she replied that they might as well die up there as any- where else, as it meant certain death to stop. Our dogs could pull only our outfit, and there wasn’t grub enough for all, so we were compelled to leave, them. They will be at the last timber tonight. and if somebody doesn’t go to their rescue they will be dead by this time tomorrow.” A man stepped out from the crowd At the Gem. The week at the popular motion picture house starts out with Pathe Weekly No. 15, and a Vitagraph Western drama, “When the Desert Was Kind.” The two-reel feature on Wednesday and Thursday will be Vengeance of Durand, or The Two Portraits,” with Rogers Lytton in the lead. On Friday only, the strong Vitagraph play, “Final Jus- tice,” will head the bill, to be fol- lowed by the clever. Biograph les- son, “Chance Deception.” Saturday and Sunday, a Vitagraph drama with a lesson, “Under the Makeup,” will be the headliner, to be follow- eded by the Lubin comedy, Aunty’s Affinity.” A special appropriate program has been arranged for Memorial Day. The two-reel Se- lig production, Pauline! Cushman,” one of the best pictures of scenes of the civil war, will be the main attraction, to be followed by the Hughie Mack comedy: “It Made Him Mad.” There will be spe- cial music for this occasion, the High school quartette singing “Boys of the Old Brigade,” and Miss Mc- Busy Bee,” and “Dixie Daisy,” The Gem will be closed during University week in order not to divide at- tention with that event’. The theatre will reopen again on Sun- day evening, the 15th, with some- thing particularly good. 2 Che Stitch 2 2 in Time When the pattern on linol eum shows signs of wearin doorways or other much-used parts--give the worn sections a coat of Chi-Namel «1 TH Varnish iy TTT and let that SUNTAN take the scuf- fing that would other- wise make an , jf entine new floor covering necessary.
