had a habit of promising a man a fish

starting on a hunting or fishing trip.
Day after day would pass. and the

almost every day a letter or telegram
would come saying that Florence had
not forgotten. that Florence was just
about sending the game; that there
was no cause for worry, as fine fish
or deer was on its way to the express
office. At first this solicitousness
would cause courteous letters and telc-
grams in return. AS the delay got lon

men and about 30 men i'll the employ
Of contractors. Only twelve of these
are reported saved
Five boats We're launched after the
Cobra struck. but some of them were
swamped in the heavy sea which was
running at the time. The first init
nation of the disaster was the arrival
Of a fishing boat at Yarmouth with
six bodies which she had picked up in
the vicinity Of the spot where the
Cobra was last seen. According to the
fishermen. the Cobra was sighted by
the lightship off Dowsing Sands. en-
veloped il steam. and she shortly af-
terward disappeared. The Cobra, like
her sister ship. the Viper, was a tur-
bine-engined vessel About one year
ago the Cobra beat the record of the
Viper and won the title of the fastest
vessel in the world.

GOD REIGNS'


Washington, Sept. 2O.-Twenty years
after the death Of GARFIELD the nations
capital was again in mourning. the
wheels of government were locked.
and the voices of the people We're up
lifted in prayer for the soul of VIII
liam Mckinley. while his mortal re
mains We're being committed to the
tomb in his Ohio home. There was
no need of a proclamation to ensure
proper observation of the sad event
here. Everywhere We're TO be seen
badges of mourning, anu on every
Flagstaff the ensign was at half-mast.
Private and public business was abso-
lutely suspended. and every face
showed signs of sadness. The city
gave evidence in most impressive man
ner that its heart was with Canton
in the solemn hour of President Nc
KiuIeys funeral. At exactly half past
: O'Clock the city ceased from labor.
practically from locomotion, for five
minutes. There was no official procla-
nation requiring such observance of
the funeral hour, nor had there been
any general agreement for such obser-
vance. But when the hour came, as
if by common instinct, men, women
and children, white and black, came

were engaged. and sat or stood as still
