LARGE HOLE IN BOW
Steamer Bertha Wreck in Fitzhugh
Sound.
PASSENGERS AND CREW LANDED
Second Officer supposed to Have Let
the Vessel Get OF Her
Course.

Special to The Journal.
Victoria, b. c., Feb. 1.-THE steamer
Bertha of the Alaska Commercial COM
pany is total wreck off Kwakume Point,
fifteen miles north Of Herald Point,
in Fitzhugh sound. She struck bow on
when bound from Seattle to Wales on
Sunday night about 1920, and slid upon
the ledge Of rock. She pounded
large hole in her starboard bow, through
which horse and cart could be driv-
en-, before her engines were stopped and
the officers began to get her passengers
and the horses ashore.
The steamer had lumber in her cargo
and a bridge was quickly made to the
rocks and the passengers and horses
were landed. The purser of the Bertha
who, with several others, arrived here
! this afternoon on the steamer Cottage
City, says the steamer struck without
warning. The night was dark. The sec
ond officer, who was on the bridge, must
have let, the vessel get Off her course.
There was strong breeze from the
southeast. but otherwise the weather
was good.
There was a strong swell, but as the
steamer remained on practically an even
keel and was so close to the nearby
rocks, there was no difficulty in landing
the passengers and crew as well as the
horses.
The Cottage City sighted the wrecked
Bertha yesterday and steamed to her as
sistance and took as many passengers
off as wished to come. Captain
Johannsel and some of the passengers re-

The onion is undoubtedly aswholesome arti-
Gle of food, in fact has many medicinal quail
ties of value. but it would be difficult to
find more indgestible article than fried
poison, but the onion does not stand alone
in this respect. Any article Of food that is
not thoroughly digested becomes a source Of
disease and discomfort whether it be fried
onions or beefsteak.
The reason why any wholesome food is not
promptly digested is because the stomach
lacks some important element of digestion,
some stomachs lack peptone, others are de-
ieient in gastric juice, still others lack. hy-
drochloric acid.
The one thing necessary to do in any case
OF poor digestion is to supply those elements
of digestion which the stomach lacks, and
nothing does this so thoroughly and safely as
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
DR.. Richardson, In writing thesis on treat
ment Of dyspepsia and indigestion, closes his
remarks by saying, .'for those suffering from
acid dyspepsia, shown by sour, watery risings
or for fiatulent dyspepsia, shown by gas on
stomach, causing heart trouble and difficult
breathing, as well as for all other forms of
stomach trouble, the safest treatment is to
take one or two Of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
after each meal. advise them, because they
contain no harmful drugs, but are composed
of valuable digestives, which act promptly
upon the food eaten never knew a case OF
indigestion or even chronic dyspepsia which
Stuart's Tablets would not reach. "
Cheap cathartc medicines claiming to cure
dyspepsia and indigestion can have no effect
whatever in actively digesting the food, and
to call any cathartic medicine cure for in
digestion is missioner.
Every druggist in the United States and
Canada sells Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, and
they are not only the safest and most sue
eeSSful, but the most scientific of any treat
ment for indigestion and stomach troubles.

DR.. R. Robbins, Physician and Surgeon
of Muskogee, Indian Territory, writes:
81 have been a practicing physician
for good many years and was always
slow to take hold of patent medicines,
but this winter my little girl and myself
were taken with the grippe. I was SC
bad l was not able to sit up, sent for a
doctor, but he did me no good. 1 had
such cough; it would not let me rest
day or night I got so weak and pros
trated and nervous that I could hardly
stand alone and 1 was all broken up.
My system seemed to be all deranged
Finally I thought would take any
thing to be cured, so I sent and got a
bottle of Peruna and commenced to take
it. I took two bottles and my cough
was gone and my lungs loosened up and
my head became clear Then I could
both hear and smell and the pain left my
stomach and limbs. I want you to know
the grippe had me instead of me having
the grippe, and my little girl took the
same way.

FTETY-THREE MILLION DOLLARS
New Business Written by the N. \

New Business Written by the N. Y.
Life ms. Co. in Six Weeks.
New York, Feb. 12,-Fifty-t three million
dollars of new insurance policies in the
first six weeks of the year is the aston
ishing high-water record announced by
one Of the foremost life insurance COM
panies. The announcement is made to
day on the occasion Of the celebration
of the tenth anniversary of the election
of John A. McCaul1 to the presidency OF
the New York Life insurance company.
Insurance men and tfnanciers admit that
this is one of the strongest indications
of the general prosperity of the country
that has been presented since the dawn
of the New Year. President McCaull is
being showered with kilograms and let
tiers Of congratulations from officials and
agents of the New York Life all over the
land.
In his report made at the beginning OF
the year, Mr.. McCaull foreshadowed the
era of insurance activity now prevalent.
He insisted that the old style Of man
agement which was disposed to bubble
over settlement of claims and which de-
MED the right of the insured to loans and
surrender values on demand, must give
way to more liberal ideas, and also that
an open record of all transactions of the
year should be furnished annually to the
insured. It was hardly anticipated, how
ever, that the response would be SO spon-
taneous or Of such dimensions. Fifty
three million dollars is more new bust
ness than many of the larger companies
have hitherto been able to write in the
course Of twelve months. Should the
present rate of new insurance keep up for
the year the New York Life will secure
$500, OOO, 900 in new paid policies, figure
so far in advance Of anything hitherto
achieved that there is no opportunity fol
comparison. y

ing the game, at the end Of the section,

Rule 81 also was corrected by adding
the words, ''to base,'' so that it now
reads:
The umpire shall call ball on the pitcher
each time he delays the game by failing to
cellver the ball to the batsman when in posi-
ton, for a longer period than twenty seconds.
excepting that in the case Of the first bats

not more than one minute in delivering not
to exceed five balls to batsman
Rule SO was eliminated. It prohibited
the use during a game by manager, cap
