SEVERAL OF THE SURVIVORS
FROM DISASTER ARRIVE HERE

(Continued from page 1)

 

that the boat was in water over
200 feet deep, in which it was im-
possible to work, ‘They had at
first thought of using dynamite,
but that would have blown the
bodies to pieces as well as the
wreck, ;
Mr. O'Neill and Mr. Brown were
very glad to be once more in
Prince Rupert after their trying
experiences, Mr, O'Neill, when
seen by a representative of The
Nws this morning, said that he
thought no blame whatever was
to be attached to the company
for the accident, which was due
solely to the fact that the rock
had not been charted by the
vessels of the United States gov-
ernment survey, although these
had been working along the coast
for years. The Pacific Coast
Steamship Company had done
everything in its power to attend
to the comfort of the survivors

‘from the wreck. The conduct of

the officers of the boat had been
of the finest. Captain Cann had
stayed by the vessel until the last
and was among those who went
down with the vessel. It was
only through good fortune that
he afterward was able to escape
to shore.

Neither Mr, O'Neill nor Mr.
Brown was acquainted with Miss
Wilson, of the public school staff,
and they cannot, therefore, add
anything to the very slight in-
formation received regarding her.

Mr. O'Neill saw how one of the
men from Prince Rupert met his
death, The man’s name, he
thinks, is Flynn. Not realizing
that the vessel was sinking in a
great depth of water, this man
thought he would be safe if he
climbed one of the masts. But
this action proved his ruin. The
mast snapped and crashed to the
deck, killing him and injuring
others.

Mr. O'Neill spoke of the suction
of the sinking vessel as immense.
He and Mr. Brown were standing
together when the vessel sank.
They both went down with her
but came up about 150 feet apart.
At least three of the boats on
the deck were latinched, says Mr.
Brown. One of them was full of
women, but it was struck by the
falling mast and swamped. He
escaped to shore not by means of
a crate of cabbages, as was first
reported, but on an upturned
boat.

The rock on which the vessel
was wrecked has since been found
to be about twenty-three feet be-
low low water. As the steamer
was drawing over twenty-six feet
of water at the time the gash
made was a big one,

 

JELLY FISH SURROUND
SCHOONER IN SWARMS

Vesse! Was Beset for Two Days
by Portuguese ‘Men of
War.”

Los Angeles, Aug. 25,—For two
days the three masted schooner
Azalea, which arrived in Los An-
geles harbor recently, was sur-
rounded by ‘men-of-war.”’ No
shots were fired, and the schooner
drifted lazily in the fleet, striking
the men-of-war on all sides and
ramming them with her prow
when she would dive down a long
swell, causing an enormous mor-
talily among them,

The men-of-war were fish—a
species of jelly fish, termed by
seafarers “Portuguese men-of-
war,’ and were met by thousands
a few miles out of San Pedro.
The vessel loaded at Grays Har-
bor and had a good passage until
wilhin sight of the San Pedro
hills.

Then it was that thousands of
the jelly fish surrounded’ the
schooner until hundreds of acres
of the surface of the water in all
directions from the schooner
were filled with the fish.

STEWART WILL BE WELL
REPRESENTED AT FAIR

Public Meeting Was Called to
Stimulate Interest in the
Exhibition

“Tam happy to report that
Siewart and the district general-
ly will be represented by a var-
ied collection of exhibits at the
Prince Rupert fair," said Perey
F. Godenrath on his return this
morning from a week's visit to
his home town, “On Wednesday
evening I had the pleasure of ad-
dressing a public meeting, called
by T. J. Vaughan-Rhys, chairman
of the mining committee of the
Citizens Association, for the pur-
pose of stimulating interest = in
the Fair, particularly in regard
to sending down a magnificent
display of the ore resources of
the Portland Canal Mining divi-
sion. The meeting was enthus-
iastic and pledged itself to com-
pete for the district prize and |
have every reason to believe that
the mineral showing will be a
worthy one. There will be sev-
eral entries for the Dr, Tremayne
potato competition,  ineluding
Mining Recorder John Conway,
Dan Davis and others. In the
athletic sports George Bruggy,
Stewart's long distance runner,
purposes entering the four mile
and other races. Mrs, W. ©, Cam-
eron intends exhibiting some
fine water color sketches in. the
Arts and Crafts department, in
fact as I said at the public meet-
ing, if we can only pursuade
some of the mothers of Stewart's
lovely babies to enter that com-
petition, we could certainly boast
of sending the best all round col-
lection of exhibits for the fair.”

Mr. Godenrath will resume his
publicity work here and the com-
ing week complete the local can-
vass for funds.

INTO LARGER PREMISES

Mrs. Frizzell Has Taken Two
Stores on Third Ave.

Mrs. 8. Frizzell is moving her
millinery and dress goods estab-
lishment from her present store
on Sixth street into quite large
premises on Third avenue. Her
new store will include both the
stores formerly occupied by Ren-
worth & Jefferson and by W. J.
Hughes. Such a move shows
that the millinery business in
Prince Rupert must be flourish-
ing and is a great credit to Mrs.
Frizzell’s enterprise. The site,
on the corner of Third avenue and
Fifth street, is one of the best in
Prince Rupert.
