THE committee of the Royal Humane Society, having fully considered the claims of the 22 allver medallists who have shown distinguished gallantry in saving life from drowning during the past 12 months, have unanimously awarded the highest honour, the Stanhope Gold Medal, to Alfred John Cooper, fourth officer of the P. & Company's steamship Massilia, who, in the Gulf of Aden, known to be infested with sharks, where the rescue occurred, saved a Lascar who fell overboard while the vessel was on a voyage from Bombay to London. The vessel was going at the rate of 13 knots at the time of the occur- rence. Mr. Cooper, who was in the saloon at the time, on bearing the cry of "Man overboard,' rished on deck, jumped overboard, swam after the man, and kept him soat until a boat was lowered and went to their assistance.
