continues to hold to the hope that war
may yet be averted by honorable

KENLNORTHUJRNS At SEA RI
CAPTAIN AND FIRST OFFICER
PERISH.
The Former had a Presntiment that
He Would Not Reach the End of
His Journey.

BATH. Me-. July PA cablegram
was received by Arthur Sewall d Co.,
today. from Valparaiso, stating that
the ship Wentworth, bound from Hilo,
Hawaii. to New York, had been burn
ed. The cable stated that Captain j..
G.. Baker, First officer Piper and a
boy named Hobson had lost their
lives. The Kenilworth was laden
with sugar.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 26.-Ad-
vices are contradictory as to the place
of the disaster, some being TO the eff
feet that the ship put into port on
fire and others that she was destroyed
at sea. It is believed however that
Captain Baker discovered the danger
i'm which he stood while off the South
american coast and put into Nalpa-
raise as last resort He was bound
from Hilo TO New York with a cargo
of sugar.
Captain James G. Baker was one of
the best known shipmasters sailing
out of this port. and has been in the
command of the Kenilworth for nine
wears. FIRST officer \. y. Piper, who
had been with Captain Baker for a
long time was an eastern man. Of
the third victim of the fire, the boy
tIobson, nothing is known here.
Captain Baker had been i'm COM
mand Of ships for thirty years. He
was born in the town of South Den
mis-. Cape Cod. about seventy years
ago. and at an early age became a
mariner His first ship was the Asa
Eldridge and in the ensuing years he
was master for various periods Of the
ships Sterling, Henry Willard. John
Rosenfeld. c. F. Sargent, Commodore
and finally of the craft on which he
persisted.
Bakers record as a master mariner
includes numerous voyages around
the world. twenty trips around the
Cape of Good Hope, and ffty-siN trips
around Capt Horn. IT is said in ma
rine circles that very few sea captains
have so many successful voyages to
their credit as had Captain Baker.
The KenilwOrth a four masted bark
rugged craft was ranked as one of the
finest ships in the American steel
sailing fleet. She was built in Scot
land in 1857 and was the following di-
mensions: Length 800 feet, breadth
43 feet, depth 81 feet. Her gross ton
mage was 2.293, net 2.17S.

THE UNION MEET
INGS.
The Sunday-Oliver Meetings
at the Old Rink are In
CreaSin& In Interest.

This is the third week of the union
meetings at the old rink, but
nevertheless they are rather increas-
ing in interest and attendance than
otherwise. If anyone wants to hear
the plain truth, pounded home with
ininitable logic and force, that one
should go to hear Sunday. His phys
ical endurance is as remarkable as
his mental capacity. He breaches
three times on Sunday and two times
on the other days of the week, and his
talks: are not short ''sermonettes, )"
either. He will talk for a straight
hour and half and his listeners not
seem to realize the lapse of time. We
have yet to see anyone go to sleep
when Mr.. Sunday speaks. He re-
Dukes sin and breaches the gospel of
Jesus Christ. He breaches against
card playing and dancing, and has
promised a special sermon on this
subject for next Sunday evening. He
made a special sermon for men and
boys last Sunday afternoon, and we
venture the opinion that it was the
plainest talk that the male inhabitants
of Willmar have ever been subjected
to. Over five-hundred men and boys
filed the hall, and most of them were
visibly affected. Mr.. Sunday, how
ever, did not have time to finish his
talk to the men, and so has set it for
a special order for next Sunday after
noon, when he will finish his talk on
the Devils Boomerangs Up-to-date. :"
And while Mr.. Sunday was talking to
the men Mr.. Oliver talked to an audi
ence composed entirely of women at
the Presbyterian church. The choir
under the skillful direction of Mr..
Oliver is increasing in efficiency, and
the spirited songs are interspersed
with choruses in which the audience
joins in: Il ~ =.

Why may we not have the school
house cleaned? "A building which is
occupied five days in the week, nine
months in the year, by more than six
hundred pupils surely needs cleaning.

WAR AT WILLMAR,
Wl11fmar Sees Some Real Sol
d1erS and Gets an Idea of
What War Means.

One may talk war and read of war,
but he gets no such conception of what
war really means as when he mingles
with troops and sees them depart to
their uncertain fate at the seat of war.
The three trains carrying the 10th
Regiment of the U. S. Cavalry, from
the forts of Montana to the South
passed through Willmar last Friday
afternoon, and the occasion was made
a holiday by the citizens of Willmar.
The town was decked with flags, the
school children paraded, waving flags
and singing patriotic songs, the boom
of anvils rang out, and when each Sec
tion arrived every steam whistle in
town and in the yard screeched So
norous welcome. The black boys in
blue were much pleased with their re-
ception here, and during the fifteen
minutes that the trains stopped ming
led freely with the crowd, which seemed
very much interested in examining the
ACCOMPLISHMENTS duu "OdpOu0 VI buc
fighters. And incidentally we might
mention that enough rounds of cart
ridges were left among the people OF
Willmar as souvenirs to have dis
posed of a troop of Spaniards. When
the last section arrived, the regimental
band came out and treated our citizens
to several of the national airs. An
immense crowd estimated to have num-
bered in the vicinity of two thousand
were assembled to witness the scene.
The darkies were very anxious to Sc
cure flags. and the people of Willmar
freely gave them those they had, even
stripping off the decorations on the
buildings to secure them. 1t was a
patriotic occasion and showed that
Willmar was not lacking in the true
ring of patriotism.
