Vivid Details.
Stories of the disaster brought to
Quebec by survivors give vivid details
of the most terrible tragedy In the an
nals of the St. Lawrence Some com
pared It to the sinking of tha Titanic
hut pointed out that in the case of tho
Titanic there was time to prepare for
death while with those who perished
on the Empress there was little time
for reflection or prayer.
From the accounts of the saved it
seems that soon after the ship was
rammed she careened until her deck
Mooil at right angles to tho water. She
slid slowly Into tho water and it was
only possible to launch five boats In
the brief Interval before she finally
sank
Captain Kendall was on the hrldgn
when the colllson occurred. When the
steamer wank he was washed away,
later to ho picked up by one of the
boats apparently to fils great regret.
Thus far he has vouchsafed no public
statement except to say that he would
have preferred to go down with his
ship. Passengers speak In his praise
ami declare he did lilh full duty.
Chief Offioer Killed.
Chief Officer Stood, it is stHtod, was
killed by a boat falling on him while
working to help tho passengers es
cape.
1-aurenre Irving, author Rnd actor,
and son of Kir llenry Irving, accord
ing to survivors, died while trying to
save his wife. Mr. and Mrs Irving
were last seen on deck embracing on
another as If in farewell. They wen
down with the ship, locked In each
others arms
F. K. Abbott, of Toronto, was tho
lost man to see Mr. Irving alive.
"I met him first In tho passage
way," he said, “and ho said calmly, ‘ls
the boat going down?’ I sold It look
ed like It. ‘Dearie,’ Irving then said
to his wife, 'hurry. There Is not time
to lose ’
"Mrs. Irving began to cry, nnd as tho
actor reached for a life belt the boat
suddenly lurched and he was thrown
against the door of his cabin. Ills
face was bloody, nnd Mrs. Irving be
came frantic. ‘Keep cool,' be warned
her, but she persisted In holding her
arms around him. lie forced the life
belt over her, pushed her out of tho
door and practically carried her up
stairs, 1 asked if I could help and
llrving said, ‘Look after yourself first,
old man, but God bless you all the
same..' ’’
Kissed Wife Goodbye.
Abbott got on deck nnd dived over
board. He caught hold of a piece of
timber and r.s he floated saw Irving on
deck kissing his wife as the ship went
down.
M. D. A. Darling, a survivor here,
was saved by a life belt that might
have aaved Henry Keton Karr. "My
cahlr, was opposite Sir Henry."
said Varlmg today, "and when 1 open
ed my door w# bumped Into each
other In the passageway, lie had a
life hell and he offered It to me. I
refused It hut he said, ‘‘(Jo on, man
take It, and 1 will get another." I told
him to save himself but he got angry
and actually forced the belt over mo.
He then hurried tno along ths corrt
<tpr to the door. Apparently be went
back for another belt but a moment
or two after he had left'me tho ship

‘‘Thy Will Be Done.”
Commissioner Reese of the Salvation
Army, stood on (lie deck of the doom
ed vessel trying to persuade the peo
ple to keep cool and lending a helping
hand to many. When the ship was
almost under water one of his men
shouted to him to Jump for hla life
He replied he would stand by his wife
and children nnd sunk with the words,
**D God, Thy will be done" on his lips.
One of the touching sights on the
survivors' train wns that presented by
Philip Lawler. With his wife and son
he had left his home In Brantford,
Ont . where they had lived for the last

Mrs, Greenaway, a bride of a week,
was separated from her husband and

Probably the chief <wuae of confue

Then hi- made out the lights of an

nnd the steamer answered. The ves

big property owners, the doctors, the
operators of largo manufacturing
concerns, anil practically nil of the
large tax payers of the city, are In fa

them?"
The suggestion came from a member
of the crov 1 that bonds mean higher
taxes and more house rent for the la
boring inan to pay.
Dr. Littleton then said that every
time a laboring man’s house rent was
raised, he should get his wagt-e In

There was no question but that Dr.

Friday Hottest Day This Early in the
Year in Past Quarter of Century
During Afternoon Mercury Reached 99 Degrees—Hottest
Ever Recorded in May Was 100 in 187 B—Today at 10 A.
M. Six Degrees Cooler Than Yesterday—Fair Weather the
Forecast.
Friday was the hottest day of the
year. It came within one degree of
equaling the heat record for May since
the establishment of the local weather
station. With the mercury standing
at 99 degrees In the middle of the af
ternoon, Augusta was almost gasping
for cooler air, and the dust and dry
ness occasioned by the long drouth,
which is unparalleled In the history of
the weather bureau, added to the in
tense discomfort.
The hottest day heretofore In May,
was felt In 1878, when on the 22nd of
the month the temperature went to
100. Since shat time, 36 years ago, the
mercury has never reached higher
than 99 In May, and this occurred but
twice —on May 11th, 1889 and on May
30th, 1898, Really, yesterday was the
hottest day for this early In the sum
mer In a quarter of a century—since
‘B9.

PRESENTATION TO
MR. AND MRS. THIOT
Retiring Pastor of Curtis
Church Remembered. Fare
well Social Held at Curtis
Last Night.
A farewell social was held at the
Curtis Baptist -Church last niglht
when members of the church and
friends presented the retiring pastor
and Mrs. Thlot with beautiful and
valuable remembrances. A pearl and
diamond lavaller was presented to
Mr. and Mrs. Thiot and a handsome
solid gold imported watch wag given
to Mu? Thiot. Mr. and Mrs. Thiot are
both deeply loved by the membership
of Curtly Church and are held in high
regard by Augustans generally and It
1h with great regret that Augusta
gives them up. They go to New
bern, N. C., where Mr. Thiot becomes
pastor of the Tabernacle Baptist
Church.
The presentation of the gift was
made by Mr. VV. W. Williams and Mr.
and Mrs. Thiot responded feelingly,
telling of their great appreciation.
In presenting the tokens Mr. Wil
liams said:
"Brother Thiot, our city in giving
you up loses one of her best citizens.
We have always found you on the
right side of every question, always
striving for those things which build
up a real civilization. The cause of
prohibition has lost a leader and we
do not, know where to get another to
take your place. The down-and-outs,
stockaders and prisoners have lost
their friend. Those who love the
coming of our I*ord and are looking
forward to the time when Jesus shall
come to receive his own from the
world have lost their teacher and we
have none to take his place. *
"Curtis Church has lost its pastor.
Since you have been with us, not
only has the church gained in num
bers, but spiritually, and in the
knowledge of our Ikird Jesus Christ.
“You have made us love the Word
more ami have brought the church up
to a high standard, having taken us
up out oT the mire and placed our
feet on the rock. We love you and it
is with a breaking heart that we give
you up. But we know that God’s will
must be done and we know that
wherever you go God will bless you
and that He will prosper your work
and we know that the time we spent
in the flesh with us here will always
he a tender spot in our memory until
Jesus comes. And while we may not
be associated together here we know
that when we meet in the air it is
going to be a great reunion. We
know that God is going to use you
and we are going to watch you."

Stuck to Post.
"He spoke through a megaphone,"
said Smart, "but there was so much
screaming and moaning that his voice
was drowned. But he stuck to his post
to the very last.
“When l got on to the Cady Evelyn,
I saw him stretched out there and they
were giving him brandy. When he
wns able to speak he looked around
and naked. ’Where’s the ship?’ A pas
senger told him the boat had gone. On
hearing this, Captain Kendall burled
his fn e In a piece of tarpaulin and
cried as though his heart would
break.”

ing that the dryness of the earth and
atmosphere accentuated the heat and
gave little hope of rain at an early
date. In fact, according to his under
standing of mettorology, it will require
a more than ordinarily energetic con
dition to give rain when the time docs
come.
Yesterday afternoon late heavy dark
gray clouds gathered overhead and for
a time threatened to rain—only threat
ened. But the wiseacres watered their
gardens Just the same. The big clouds
<lid manage to lose a few precious
drops, however, enough for the fore
caster to call a “trace."
From the hourly temperature rec
ord, it could be seen at ten o’clock that
today’s heat record would not equal
that of yesterday’s, for at this hour the
temperature registered 82, whereas
yesterday at this time it was 88 de
grees.
The forecast Is again for fair
weather tonight and tomorrow.
THE “AUGUSTA” RAN ON
SAND BAR NEAR WHARF
Water Unusually Low—Ship
Carries 100-Ton Cargo of
Sugar and Canned Goods
From Savannah.
Tbe “Augusta" of the Merchants and
Farmers Navigation Company, ran
aground about four or five hundred
yards below the city wharf at the head
of Center street yesterday afternoon
at sun down as it was ploughing in to
dock.
This morning it was still on the
sand bar. The lack of rain has caused
the water to be very low and the ship
will not be able to move until the wa
ter rises. It is hoped, however, that
the “factory water,” which causes a
rise of a few inches every day between
9 and 12 o’clock, will be of assistance
in getting the boat off the bar. The
river water is held back every night
by the big factories and when they
start up in the morning the water is
released and reaches the city wharf
at about the time mentioned.
The Augusta left Savannah with a
100-ton cargo of canned goods sugar,
etc. Monday night due here Thurs
day.
NEIGHBOR ASKED
FOR INFORMATION

Miami, Okla.—“ One of my neigh

this town, ‘‘came to my house last
week, and said: ‘Mrs. Turley, what
did you take to help you so quickly?'
I told her It was Just Cardui. the wo
man’s tonic, and she said: ‘I wish I
looked as well as you do.’ I told her
If she would take It, she would. So
she sent her hushand to town to get
the Cardui, and commenced taking it.
She looked so pale and sick all the
time, but is beginning to look better
already.
As to how it helped me—l suffered
for about E years, with womanly trou
bles, and became so weak and ner
vous. and would suffer such pain every
month, that I thought, at times, I
would die. Was in such condition
that I couldn’t do my work half of the
time, and would have awful smother
ing spells.
My husband bought me a full treat
ment of Cardui <6 bottles) and I can
truthfully say that after I took the last
bottle I was well, enjoying the
best of health now, and am so thankful
to Cardui."
