DEAD JAPS ON SHIP Weird Adventure of Engineer Off Coast of China, - Seaman Supposed to Have Been Drowned Climbs Aboard Deserted ' Vessel and Wonders at the Mystery of Sailors' Fate. Now York. If Banzai, tho Japaneso poodle and prized possession of Wil liam Twoeddale, chief engineer of tho Tweeddalo, chief engineer of- tho British tramp steamer Atholl, now dis charging her far Kast cargo at tho American docks, Staton island, could talk ho would unfold a strango talo of tho southern Pacific. But tho story of how Banzai camo into tho possession of Chief Twoeddale Is strango enough n talo in itself. Before Joining the Atholl, Tweeddalo was second en gineer of tho tramp steamer Vlscar, and wero that steamer's log to bo had and tho pages turned back to a year ago tho drowning at sea of Banzai's owner would bo noted. "I'm a drowned man and that's all thero Is to it," remarked Twoeddale to a reporter, as ho began tho story cf Banzai. "I haven't seen tho Vlscar since tho night 1 was drowned in tho South Pacific, but I've heard from my old chief, and ho says I'm carried on tho log as drowned, and that tho Vis car's log Is truthful in all things, and drowned I must remain. "It was about this time last year that I was 'drowned.' Tho Vlscar had touched in at Japanese ports and was kicking her way south to Singapore. I had Just been relieved of my watch below by tho third and had gono to tho rail for a breath of air. The night was stifling hot, and whether I had got too much heat or what I don't know, but I wan taken with assort of fainting spell. "I camo to with a sudden shock. I was In tho water. "It dawned on mo mighty quick that no ono had soon me go overboard and that it mlcht bo a couplo of hours bo foro I was mlesod. I shouted a bit moro and then I began to save my breath nud Bwim. ''Well, sir, I had somo funny thoughts. First I began to wonder how long I could keop up, and decided that by taking things easy I was good for flvo or six hours and daylight, for I had gono overboard at midnight. I was beginning to tiro a bit, and It was something of an effort to keop floating. "Then, sir, I saw a sight that brought a howl of Joy out my lungs. Sweep ing along toward mo, with all sails sot, was a one-masted vessel. I bogan to swim toward her, yelling 'Help' every fow strokes, but not an answer ing cry did I hoar. I thought it strango, for tho vessel was almost on me, but it wasn't for mo to wonder- about such things with a chance for life so ucar at hand, and so I bumped FOUR BRIDES OF THANKSGIVING WEEK - alongside as tho boat camo by, mo. Luckily'l saw a rope hanging over tho sldo and got hold of It, or I'd novor bo In New York or any other earthly harbor this day. Finally, with ono last awful effort, I drew myself over tiio sldo and fell In a heap on tho deck. I sat up with a start and there was a blooming puppy dog what had been licking tho sldo of my face. That thero pup was Banzai. "Well, sir, I had como aboard Into a pretty mess. Tho vessol was a one sticker and was running under main sail, topsail and Jibs, but uot a sign of a human being did I sco. I got up and wont aft, and thero doubled up near tho wheel was a dead Jap. Tho follow wob curled up like n fellow who fallen asleep and had tried to keep himself warm by rolling into a ball. "I wont down Into tho cabin and thero strotched out on the floor wero four moro Japs. It certainly gavo mo the creeps to look at thorn. They all had tho samo ghastly expression on their faces and tho samo wild look In their eyes as tho fellow up on dock. I looked about expecting to sco signs of a Btrugglo, but everything was as ship shape as could be. "Tho moro I looked at those dead men tho moro tho Idea stuck to mo that thoy had seen something that had literally f lightened thorn to death. What it was you can guess as veil as mo. 1'vo often tried to figure out an explanation of thoso dead Japs, but it's beyond mo. Tho bodies wero in a good stato of preservation, so tho men couldn't havo been dead long. "Well, tho first thing I did was to heavo thoso Japs overboard; "I kept on westward for about four days and then late ono afternoon I sighted a steamer low down on tho horizon. Then I saw tho steamer be ginning to slow down. I ran up as closo aB I could and thoy lowered away a lifeboat to reach my ship As soon as it pulled alongsldo I picked up Banzai and Jumped Into tho boat and was takon to the steamer. Tho sailboat Journeyed on ns I had left her, all satis set and heading Into tho setting sun. Sho wbh a ship of mystery. Where sho camo from, what had happened to her crow and whoro sho went I don't know and never will."

DISCUSS FREEDOM OF- AIR Jurists of tho World Are Torn Over Sovereignty of Space Above Territory. London. In tho sixteenth and seventeenth centurios tho Jurists of tho world poured forth learned treatises on tho freedom of tho seas and in thoso days Englishmen wore tho great champions of tho doctrlno of maro Uberum, whilo the Continental scholars upheld tho notion of mnro clausum. Today tho JurlstB of tho world are busy with tho discussion of tho free dom of tho air, and tho rotes aro reversed. English professors nlmost unanimously maintain tho doctrlno of sovereignty over tho air, spaco abovo tho territory, whilo tholr colloaguca abroad insist that tho state has no dominion. Tho need for tho assortlon of stato fovorelgnty is Implicitly recognized In our aerial navigation act of 1911, which empowers tho government to Interdict flying over any area when it chooses. At tho Bamo tlmo tho principal of stnto sovereignty does not Intorforo with the right of Innocent passago through tho air which tho comity and intorcourso of nations require Subject only to precautions neces sary for tho safety of tho subjacent population and public security liberty to fly ovor tho land will doubtless bo accorded by tho stato to foreigners as well as nationals. Tho position will be similar to that taken up In rogard to territorial wa ters, says tho Law Journal, through which thero is a right of innocent pas sago to all vessels, though thoy aro subject to tho dominion of tho neigh boring state. In fact, tho air Juridically resembles not thi open ocean, but tho marginal sea. SHOT BY BOYHOOD ENEMY Youth He Had 8ent to Prison In 1B70 Gets Bjtter Rovongo After Many Years. Denver, Col. M. A.
