With others they had spent the day skirmishing around on tbe flats opposite here, surveying and cutting willows, and Incidentally wading barefoot through the sloughs. The north wind came with a rush along towards evening and lifted huge waves in the river, waves that lapped four and five feet high on the bridge iplers. Four or five men tackled Che trip in a skill and made it safely, bailing all tbe while as the waves broke over the gunwale and drenched tbe.ni to the skin. Capt.

Joe Gietfier and his men stood ashore with another boat ready to go to their rescue. But they go across safely, though far down Three men had been left on the bar, the skiff to return and get tihem. But it didn't return. Nobody cared to tacklo tbe rough sea, and It was believed the three men left behind would go ap on the bottom to a farm house for the niht. One of them did, but the other two thought they would stay a bit and see if the skiff would be Bent back for them nt rnpRA fell, and their dhancea of getting oil tne car were gone, ior was oimoun enougn geiuug on oy daylight.

So they made the best of their predicament. The found firewood, built a fire, and sjient the night in the bridge tool shack on the bar, with the cold north wind getting a full sweep at them. The Ohlrd man had got to the farm house safely and had a good night's sleep. Robinson Crusoe and Friday didn't sleep much. They didn't eat at all, for tbere was nothing to eat.

Rescuers brought them back. They headed for a restaurant.
