REV. A. r. CHASE DEAD.
President Of Maine Wesleyan Seminary Passes
Away at Kent's Hill.

kents Hill, Me-, Oct. 23.-(SpeciaD.-
President A. r. Chase of the Maine
Wesleyan Seminary, and Female Col
lege, died at Kent's Hill, Saturday
evening, Oct. % at o'clock.
The cause of death was blood poison
ing brought on by a complication of
diseases.
President Chase was one of the
ablest and most widely beloved edu-
Gators of New England. His death
will be an irreparable loss, not only to
his family and a large circle of friends,
but to the institution of which he was
the honored head.
The funeral services will take place
at kent's Eill Tuesday morning, at 8
O'clock
President Chase had formerly been
member of the faculty at Kent's Hill,
filling the chair of mathematics for
many years previous to 1883, when he
left the school, being soon after elect
ed president of the East Maine Semi
nary at Bucksport. Previous to going
to Kent's Hill he had taught in the
seminary at Wilbraham, Mass
About two years ago he was elected
president of the Maine Wesleyan Sem
mary at Kent's Hill, which position he
had since filled

THE STORMS WORK.
A Long List Of Marine Dis
asters Being Reported.
Wrecks Along the Whole Line Of the
North Atlantic Coast.
Nearly Every One Is Accompanied BY nsavy
Loss Of Lie.

Halifax, N. s., Oct. 23.-Tugs which
have been endeavoring for hours to
reach a large square-rigged vessel
ashore on Thrum Cape shoal, eight
miles from here, returned, tonight,
having abandoned the effort to save
the crew of the unknown craft. The
vessel was discovered on the rocks, at
daylight this morning, having gone
ashore doubtless in the heavy south
westerly gale which commenced last
night and lasted for nearly IL hours
accompanied by violent rain and un-
usually heavy seas. Only stumps Of
masts are visible from the signal sta
tion and five men have been counted
on the deck of the stranded vessel.
At first the unfortunate craft was
thought to be a French barkentine as
one was due here. During the morn
ing the crew could be seen making
signals but the binding spray Of the
sea breaking over the hull prevented
them being understood. Life boats
from the Devils Island station were
early on the scene but could not get
within half mile Of the shoals. The
sea was breaking long distance OUT
side. The noise Of the surf rolling on
shore was terrific.
This afternoon the tug boats got
near enough for Mr.. Crosby, Halifax
agent of the British brigantine Irma,
which was due from Turks island with
salt, to. venture the opinion that this
vessel was the Irma. He could not
see the name but believed he recogniz-
ed the familiar outlines. 1t was con-
jectured also that the vessel might be
the brigantine Ida Maud, but the dis
masted hull appeared too large.
A life buoy attached to small line
was sent off from the stranded vessel,
this evening, and was allowed to float
down to one of the life boats. An at
tempt was then made to pass heavy
line but the small hauling line broke
and darkness coming on another at
tempt could not be made. As only Ave
men We're seen on the vessel and the
crew of the Irma numbered nine 1t is
feared four have been lost. The dis
masted hull has been lifteN BY the
force of the sea upon the crown Of the
reef. The sea is still high and further
efforts to rescue the crew have had to
be abandoned. If the sea goes down,
tonight, the tugs will return to the
scene or otherwise nothing can be done
before morning. 1t is feared the ves-
sci cannot hold together much longer
and much anxiety exists.
The Irma is vessel of 232 tons
owned in Liverpool, N. S., and COM
manded by Capt. Taylor Of this city.
