ETTA SHATTUCK AT REST. Deoath Relleves the Suffering of the Herolc School Teacher. THE BRAVE GIRL'S FORTITUDE. A Day of Mourning in the Town of Seward—The Roll of Honor Still Growing — The Royce Fund, Death of ta Shattuck. Srwaun, Neb., Feb, 6—[Special Telegram to the Bek.]—This morning Miss Etta Shat- tuck was suddenly takon worse and at 9 o'clock passed peacefully away. The death of the young lady was not wholly unex- pected, as she has been decidedly feeblo during the last four days. It was hoped, however, that Miss Shattuck would gain strength and live, but it was an- nounced at 7 o'clock -this morning that her death was a question of brief time, and at 9 o'clock the prediction was fulfilled. T'he attending physiciaus, Drs. Reynolds and Potter, did all in their power to alleviate her sufferings. Her long fasting while impris- oned in the haystack on the night and suc- ceeding days of the terrible storm reduced her to an almost helpless condition, and her intestines having become thoroughly chilled rendered her insensible to her own needs. In addition her back was badly frozen, and the flesh sloughed away from the body, leaving a hole from one to two inches in depth. Had she lived it would have been necessary to perform another amputation of both legs. During all her sufferings Miss Shattuck has borne up bravely and the patience displayed at alltimes during her sufferings has been wonderful. She had an abiding faith in that Higher Power whodoeth all things well. She died as she had lived—a christian. Her age was 10 years, 9 month and 28 days. Her father, mother, two sisters and brother wero present to cheer her last hours on earth. The death of Miss Shattuck1s & blow to the good poeple of Seward, who had learned 1o love and admire her for the many splendid traits of character sho posscssed. Tho fu- neral services will probably have the largest attendance of any which have occurred at Seward. The arrangements have not as yet boen completed, but the services will prob- ably be held some time to-morrow after- noon. The general sentiment here as to the dis- bursement of the fund from Scward is that it bo turned over to her needy and deserv- ing parents. Trustee William Redford has received §304. Drexel & Maul's Generosity. On learning of the deathof Miss Shattuck, Drexel & Maul, the well-known undertaking firm, at once telegraphed to Seward tender- ing a handsome casket. The very kind offer will probably be accepted, and Messrs, Drexel & Maul will select the most expen- aive casket they have and forward the same to Seward free of all cost. The Etta Shattuck Funds. In the hope that the life of Miss Etta Shattuck would be spured, the Bee has made earnest efforts to increase the fund for her benefit to an amount which would com- fortably support her. The fund for this brgve and suffering girl has amounted to a considerable amount. Yesterday before the intelligence of Miss Shattuck's death was rocelved, the Bie sent to the young teacher at Seward a check in the sum of £3,752.01 payablo to her order.

W. LAFLIN, Secretary. A Recognition of Heroism. Boston Advertiser: Itis gratifying to the country at large and highly creditable to the people of Nebraska that they have taken such prompt action toward a substantial recognition of the bravery of the three heroines, the Misses Shattuck, Royce and Freeman. The funds which were opened by the Omaha Bee for the beunefit of these threo heroic sufferers aro at last assuming considerable proportions. It is noticeable ,017 97 from the lists printed that the amount is not made up from large individual contributions, but rather a large number of small ones, It i8 in this light a cheerfal testimonial from the people throughout the state. Arrangemonts arenow bemng perfected for a systematic canvas in aid of the fund, and there is every reason to hope that a large amount of money will be thus obtained. The object is cer- tainly & worthy one and an honor to its pro- Jectors and executors. Lena Woebbecke, Dustap, Ta., Feb. 4. To the Editor of the B 1 read with feelings of sympathy the letter of George Burkett, of Seward, Neb. The case of Lena Woebbecke presents all the sad features of Miss Shattuck’s. I feel sure it is not too late to do something for her, as those who have responded so gencrously will not igmore the appeal of the orphan,even if it is a little late.

To the Editor of the Ber: The citizens of Deadwood wishing to subscribe to the Shattuck fund, and the idea suggested itself to some of them, that if your people felt an ingerest in the Black Hills, mining stock would be as good a do- nation as could be given, said mining stocks to beturned into money, to be giyen to Miss Shattuck. ‘The stocks are all clear and should bring from one cent to ten cents per share, which would be a nice nest egg for a fund. The stocks can be auctioned or sold at private sale, as youmay sce fiit. All that our people wish is that & good sum may be realized from their liberal donation to so de- serving a cause a8 rewarding a heroine as Miss Shattuck, who can suffer and may- hap die that others might live!

Terrible Experience of a Ship- wrecked Orew, New York Worldy The loss of the Alfred Watts has been briefly alluded to, but the particulars of the wreck and of the awful struggle for life of the sea- men who escaped immediate drowning were brought to this city yesterday by Captain Young. The Alfred Watts, of this port, a uhir n({\ 955 tons, sailed from Philadelphia for togo, Japan, October 11 last. The crew and passengers num- bered twentv-eight, Everything went smoothly nntil the vessel reached the vicinity of the Bahamas, There a hur- ricane overtook the ill-fated ship. The vessel was thrown on her beam end and an overwhelming wave broke ovi the half-wrecked ship, and swept ever man over the side into the boiling ocean. From the floating wreckage they gathered in a few pieces of woodwork, and with these rude oars toiled towards the hulk, where food and water at least might be found. But their progress was slow: the hot sun beat down upon their unprotected heads, and they know 4oo well that an enemy more cruel than the storm was beneath the surface of the ocean. The waters swarmed with sharks. Without water or food the hardy sailors bent their energies to pro- pelling their unwieldy raft. For thirty- six hours they toiled. Then the mind of one of them, a flne young fellow, the gon of the owner of the vessel, gave way under the hardships of the situation. He thought in his delirium that he saw land and, turning to his comrades, he cried out, in glad tones, that he meant to walk to shore, He plunged into the water, For some distance he swam, probbly in the direction of the mirage which his distraught fancy conjured up. Then, with a shriek, he suddenly sunk, evidentls dragged down by a shark. The remaining men horror-stricken by the scene, toiled on with the energy of desperation. When within about two hundred yardsof the ship one of the men took the end of a line between Iis teeth and leaped into the sea. He had almost reached the vessel when his comrades, who were anxiously watching him, heard n piercing cry of horror and despair, and the swimmer threw up his arms and_disappeared, another vietim to the wolves of the ocean. The fear- ful fate of his two companions did not deter another sailor from attempting to got a line aboard the wreck. He, too, attempted to reach the ship by &wim: ming and was dragged down by sharks when he had gone buta few yards, Then a wave, swelling over the raft, swept away another man whom despair and privation had rendered too weak to maintain his hold. But two now remained. They were named Linn and Magnus. Night again overtook them, with only a few bourds between them and the shark-in-fested waters. Their little “craft, relieved from the weight of the four lost men, was easier to handle, and they toiled on under the starlighf'in the direction of the vessel. Another sunrise found them on board the water-log- ged ship. The :decks were sub- merged, only a few: feet of the bow be- ing abova water. Having reached this ro nt the two survipg sunk utterly ex- hausted, intoa deep sleep. When the, awoke lilcy found that the rigging ha parted duving their unconsciousness; that most_of the spars had gone over- board, and the ship’wasagain on a level keel, The two wooden tanks under the head of the forecastle were full of fresh water, with which they refreshed them- selves. They alsofound a box of cod- fish, and for eighteen days they lived on cod-fish and watem. About this time the cm-gio, broken up by the working of the sea in the wa.ter-lo¥geu hull, began to float out of the hold, and the men were able to secure a diversity of food. On November 20, the British bark Lizzie Perry, Captain Young, rescued the two seamen from the hulk, and on December 10 the Lizxie Perry was wrecked at the Barbados, but all got safely ashore. The two rescued men sailed from Berbados in the brig Mary Bartlett, for Cienfuegos, and are now on their’ way to this city, having left Cienfuegos January 9. A noteworthy incident in this con- nection is that two sailors, who had learned the story of Linn and Mangus, went to England by the mail steamship and represented themselves as the sur- vivors of the Alfred Watts. Before be- ing detected in the deception they aroused much, profitable sympathy. plelds cdnidad The Ice Bridge at Niagara has formed and many people have al- ready crossed the river upon it below the falls.

Romantic Family History. St. Louis Globe-Democrat: Winthrop Colbath, a brother of the late Vice President Henry Wilson, was buried at Vassar, Mich., last week. Mr. Colbath removed to this county in 1869, and died in East Saginaw, leaving four children. The Colbaths had a remarkable history. The mothen was a daughter of an Eng- lish nobleman, who fell in Jlove with a married Colbath, a servant in her father’s family. They came to America and settled in Niagara county. A Mas- sachusetts gentleman met them several years after and took the eldest child, Jeremiah Colbath, to his eastern home, legally adopting him and giving him the name of Henry Wilson, who became i rsident under Grant.
