BUr TOO LATE.
Nine of her Crew, Captain, his Wife and Chill

The Rlengfell was passing here, in tow
on her way to London, at about 6:30 a.
M, and was about four miles off the

flames, and smoke poured from her hatch
ways. Two lifeboats Immediately put

were able to reach the burning vessel
her masts fell and she was burned to the
waters edge. Her hull eventually drifted
upon the Goodwin Sands.
The Blengfell had a quantity of naptha
on board and the smell of it was strong
during the voyage, especially aft, so
much so that the officers of the ship
had to shift their quarters last evening
An explosion occurred just MS the Cap

services Of Il tug, which saved the survi-
VOrs.

at White Haven in 1876; she registered

South Before the War" Sunday Night
and " A Breezy Time" Tuesday Night.

An attraction that will call for more
than passing attention from theatre
goers is Harry Martell's realistic
southern production, The South Be-
fore The War;" which will appear at
the Rhode Opera House next Sunday
night. The negro is represented by
negroes in widely different environ
ments. Jubilee songs and dances,
buck and wing dancing, visions of an
old time camp meeting, introducing
all the characters usually seen there,
a cake walk for gold and silver prizes,
and a plckaninny band Of seventeen
little cOlOred boys, are a few of the
novelties introduced. The lovable and
bright side of negro life, living in a
village of plantationcabins. is shown,
and the sum total of the entertainment
is scene of animated rural simplicity
in Dixie, as pictured by the pens of
writer's famous in history and romance.
A Breezy Time.
1t is said that Fitz and Webster's
d" A Breezy Time" which will be seen
at the Rhode opera house next Tuesday
night, has a little more excuse tor eX-
istence than most farce comedies. 1t
has a comprehensive story, and al
though the story does not take up by
all means all the time occupied by the
production, it furnishes very good
rack upon which to hang clever spec
ialties that the various performers in
trOduce.
