Fears That 100 Miles of Southern Pa iho
Track win be Submerged.
SALToN, Col, Feb. 27-From present
indications the desert lake here will be
much larger than last year. At present
the lake is about half mile wide and,
after running along the Southern Pacific
track about two miles, extends off out
of sight to the south.
At this time last year there was not a
drop of water visible, although there
was few inches below the surface of the
sink. 1t was not until several months
later that the floods occurred in the Gila
and Colorado rivers, caused by melting
SHOWS, and only in August that the water
in Salton Sink began to attract attention.
The SHOWS in the mountains at present
are heavier than for years, and, coming
rs the water will when they melt on the
land already in large part saturated, a
lake Of unexampled extent will probably
be created.
Old residents believe that abont one
hundred miles of the track for the
Southern Pacific which lies in the desert
belo'g sea level will be overflowed.

ONLY ONE RESCUED
Terrible Loss of Life in the
North Sea.
TWO STEAMSHIPS IN COLLISION.
Without Even a 0ry of Warning Fifty-four
Sink to Eternal Sleep

The Loaghbrow Collides with the Forest
Carrying with It All on Board Except
the Captain-No Trace of the Wreck
Can be Found After "a Diligent Search
Only Meagre Details of the Accident.
LONDON, Feb. 27-A fearful disaster,
inyoliug the loss of ffty-four lives, has
occurred in the North Sea, off the coast
Of Yorkshire, England.
The full details have not yet been re-
ceived.
1t appears from brief dispatches that
the two British steamships, the Forest
Queen and the Loughbrow, came into
collision near the promontory known as
Marlborough Head, which rises, with
the lighthouse that crowus it, to height
of 2i4 feet above the North Sea.
The collision appears to have come
without the slightest warning. The two
vessels crashed together, the bow of the
Loughbrow cutting the Forest Queen in
two
In an instant, almost without IA cry,
the Forest Queen sank, and every soul on
board, passengers and crew, to the num-
Der of fifty-fye, with one exception, were
drowned.
The captain of the Forest Queen, being
on deck at the time of the disaster, ap-
pears to have been pulled on board of the
Loughbrow.
The latter vessel was considerably
damaged, but not enough to sink
The greatest excitement reigned at
Marlborough when the news became
known, and boats pushed out to the
scene to see what could be done in saving
life
The wreck of the Forest Queen had,
however, utterly disappeared.
Farther news is awaited with great
anxiety.

The revolutionists were so closely

These were taken by Captain Bourke,
who holds them as trophies of the chase.
Captain Bourke states that CARA $

DOWN IN THE DEPTHS.

Queer EHpefience of Annie Lewis In .
Montana Mine.
Pretty little Annie Lewis, the charm
ing soubrette who recently began her
starring tour In Minneapolis in new
play entitled "a Nutmeg Match" writ
ten by William Haworth. enjoys relat-
ing somewhat thrilling experience she
had in Butte last season She was then,
says the Chicago Evening Post, with
lyon Yonson," and the members of the
company were all invited to visit the
great Parrot mine by Superintendent
Tibbey. Now, Miss Lewis Is as
courageous as she is pretty, but she
never had been down in the bowels of
the earth, and as she watched the frail-
looking car, which was to convey the
party 700 feet below the surface, shoot
up and down with lightning velocity,
her courage began to ooze out of her
fnger-ends. She was game, however,
and won the heart of the big, good
naively requesting that he put his arm
around her. Superintendent Tibbey
was not lacking in gallantry and, like.
the sensible man that he is, he did as he
was asked. The signal was given and
the car started on It's fearful downward
journey into the inky blackness of the
mine. At this point the stories of the,
party differ slightly. Miss Lewis COM
panions aver that she uttered a piercing
scream and threw her arms around the
neck of the sturdy superintendent This
statement Miss Lewis stoutly denies,
but she admits that she did utter tiny
bit of scream. When questioned
later the superintendent, with mod
esty that well became him, refused to
make any statement. He obtained his
revenge, however, in another way.
After the party had explored the inner
most recesses of the mine and had seen
all there was 10 see, the superintendent
begged Miss Lewis to sing song.
ooh, 1 can't sing away down here"
she cried, in dismay.
''Oh, but you must" cried the big
miner, with twinkle in his eye.
''Please excuse me; oh, do excuse me.
really can't sing without an orchestra.
will give you recitation" and the
eyes of the young actress looked at her
tormentor beseechingly. The superin-
tendent was obdurate, and there was q
determined look upon his face as he
spoke his direful ultimatum:
81 will not let you out of the mine
until you sing"
That settled it. Miss Lewis sang one
song. The begrimed miners came in
from the different drifts and tunnels
and gathered around her in an admir-
ing circle. They were vociferous in
The Wichita daily eagle. [volume] (Wichita, Kan.) 1890-1906, 1892-08-10

their applause. Another'song followed
and then another. The enthusiasm Of
the miners was unbranded, and tre-
mendous cheer, which seemed to pene-
trate to tho end of the furthernost tun-
mel. was given the accommodating
young actress as the car shot upward
from the 700-foot level. Miss Lewis
says she is confident her voice trembled
when she sang, but she enjoyed the ad-
venture and she says she never appeared
before more appreciative or kindly
audience than those great big rough,
warm-hearted miners As a mark Of
his appreciation the superintendent pre-
sented her with a magnificent piece of
pure silver taken from the mine, which
she now wears in brooch of very odd
design
