CRUSHED AGAINST PILES.

| The Steamer SGracie X" Caught be-
| tween the ssSunshine,, and the Dock
at Pnwson Park-The Captain and
-Four Children Narrowly Escape In
slant Death-The Steamer n Total
Wreck.
Quite an exciting scene was enacted at
Pawson Park yesterday afternoon about
o'clock during the course of which 1t seem
ed more than probable that at least Eve
lives would be crushed out. Happily no
such catastrophe occurred, though for a
short time 1t seemed inevitable.
The steamer Sunshine, with about FIVE
hundred excursionists from Wethersfeld
ard Rocky Hill on board, arrived off Paw
son Park about O'Clock yesterday after
noon. The tide was low, and the Sunshine
in attempting to swing into the dock, ran
aground. A pleasure launch, the Oracle
K, owned by Captain Bennett, which piles
between Pawson Park and Brantord, was
signalled and came to the assistance of the
Sunshine.
The launch finally succeeded in pushing
the Sunshine off the rocks and, In conse-
quenee of the extra amount Of Rteam pres.
sure under which che was running, was
unable to get away from the Sunshine and
was caught between her and the piles of
the dock and badly crushed. She finally
succeeded in backing out of the way and
almost Immediately sank In about eight
feet of water.
On the Oracle K were the captain and
four children. When the boat was bsing
crushed against the piles three of the chill
dren caught hold of the piles and climbed
up. One of them just as he was about at
the top of the piles lost his hold and was
about to fall back into the water when he
was caught by George White of Haublein's
cafe, this city, and pulled ashore. The
two other children climbed up in safety.
After the captain had succeeded in backing
the boat ont, as it was about to sink, the
captain caught the remaining child in his
arms and swan ashore with It,
The boat is total wreck, the front and
sides being crushed in and the boiler and
machinery badly twisted out of place.
After the accident and before starting to
swim ashore Captain Bennett heroicslly
stuck to his post and drew all the free,
thus preventing the boiler from exploding
and the probable injury of many excnT-
sionists in consequence thereof.

one hand take one end of the chain

earthly and angelic beings may lay
