by the Bermuda Royal Gazette, which says:
There is one point which did not come
within the scope Of the inquiry, but which.
nevertheless, was brought into striking
prominence by the evidence given before
the court. A passenger steamer was wreck
ed within sight of land. Fad the condi-
tons been other than they were. It IS sa1e
to say that every soul on board might have
persisted. Her signals of distress were I'M
needed for the simple reason that no one
saw them. For six hours she was pound
ing herself to pieces before assistance
reached her That it reached her even then
was due not to the efforts of any organtza-
ton, but solely to the fact that she was
seen at day break by the captain OF steam
tug on the watch for business Surely such
a thing ought to appeal to those in author
ity. Bermuda is an imperial naval station
of the first Importance; It's position renders
1t peculiarly dangerous; Its lighting ar
rangements at present are admittedly mad
eQuate but were they ever so good they
would not do away with the necessity for
keeping vigilant lookout In case OF acci-
dent. With properly equ,pped coas !.

ouent increase In the number of vessels
calling and passing. We may have occa-
sion not merely to regret the loss OF many
a noble steamer but also to mourn the sac
rif1ce OF many precious lives
The Bermuda newspapers have dealt with
the evil and its remedy frankly and boldly.
But there are few Bermudans who still
seem to retain some OF the Old Wrecking
spirit which caused protest against the
erection of lighthouses on the island as
an interference with business. Henry
II. Hollis. who figured in the Madiana
ino,,iry as nautical assessor, rebnkes
the Royal Gazette for its Hfe-saving
suggestions as having "a tendency to
cause unnecessary alarm. He says
that he has never heard OF one Of the
many Bermudan wrecks attended with loss
Of life, and adds: 1.-The reefs seem to be SO
formed that vessels striking them do not
sink in deep water
The Royal Gazette says in reply to Mr..
Hollis: .'The gist- of his argument is. APP

der" The attention of Mr.. Hollis may be
called to the fact that about half of the
crew persisted IN this shipwreck.

long list of Bermudan shipwrecks UP to

Wrecking long ago ceased to be its main in

ed to prevail that its reefs were peculiarly

might be held fast upon them until people
and property could be handled by Bermuda

ened selffshness of reducing in every imag-
Unable way the dangers of the ocean path
between New York and Hamilton are fullyI
recognised by all intelligent Bermudans
and the sharp reminder Of the Madiana'sI

lethargy and to produce speedy and bene-I

paIently, that because hitherto luck has
favored US we should continue to put our
trust in luck The statement that ship
wrecks on the Bermuda reefs have not been
attended with loss of life may be, and no
doubt is, quite correct-the case of M. de la
Barbotsere's vessel would scarcely apply
nevertheless we must maintain that a
wreck attended by loss of life Is easily con-
ceivable. and the peculiar conformation of
the reefs furnishes no guarantee against
panic.
"But leaving loss of life out of the ques-
ton. surely the fact that an important
imperial naval station Is destitute OF a
proper lookout is. In itself sufficiently
alarming. Mere silence can not allay tine
alarm consequent on the existence of such
state of things; and no amount Of itera-
ton with view to a remedy can be un-
necessary"
Bermuda's Ancient Evil Repute.
1t is unwise in the highest degree for the
Bermudan government, by any negligence,
to permit the ancient evil reputation of
the Bermudas to be even in small part
renewed, and the height of folly for any
Bermudan to contribute to the same re-
suit by deprecating precautions to prevent
shipwreck or to save life and property after
wreck has occurred.
There are illustrious precedents for the
methods Of coming to Bermuda adopted by

who approached the islands In 1915. and
gave his name to them, did not land. The
Frenchman Russell recorded shipwreck
between 1850 and 1870. Capt. John Smith
said q few years later Of the Bermudas:
"Our men found divers crosses. pieces of
Spanish money here and there. Two or
three wracks also they found by certain
inscriptions to be come Spanish, some
Dutch, some French" Henry May. sea-

this will be remedied soon if it is true.
Quite Il few humorous pencil sketches

ing the work of one Of the Baker City
boys.
The boys spend thsir leisure after
noon hours in playing baseball foot
ball and generally inspecting the sur
rounding country excepting the miser-
able ones detailed for guard duty, the
bane of the soldiers existence. But of
course the guard is being constantly
so that each gets his share.

Grand Review
Of Regiment
Gen. Summers to Inspect the Sol
dier boys This Afternoon
at Gearhart

Camp Summers, Gearhart, Sept. A.
(SpeciaI)-Jupiter Pluyius reigned this
afternoon ana the clouds rained. Ore
gon weather was on deck during the
latter part of the day, and hence every
one was happy-or should have been.
Just the same. it is to be hoped that
Sol win condescend to illuminate the
scene trifie stronger for the grand re-
view which is to occur at p. m. Sun
day.
General Summers Is to review the
regiment and big excursion is expect
ed from Portland, when, as one of the
soldier boys expressed it, I'VE can have
our individual girls and the officers
can't monopolize everything THE band
from Vancouver showed up yesterday,
and had just emerged from the tents
devoted to the musicians preparatory
to livening up the camp with little
music, when the big drops began to fall
and business was postponed along that
line. For the same reason the target
practice had to be cut out, although the
morning drill was carried out, as the
rain did not begin until after lunch.
A very noticeable feature is sample
Of "Old Glory" 3OX16 feet, which floats
from a big pole on the grounds. This
was put up by the boys.
Capt. Roy Dobie, of company H, Port
land, was officer of the day today, and
finer specimen of soldier would be
hard to find. He was one of the lads
who saw genuine service in the Philip
pines.
There were three unfortunates con-
fined in the guard house today up to
late in the afternoon, when they were
released. They were members of COM
pany A, of Baker City. and were in
trouble for not showing up on time at
the Portland depot to take the train for
this point. Had connecting s. P.
train not been late, they would not
have made their train at all. There
have been no arrests made from trouble
originating in camp, however, as excel
lent order has been maintained.
The feature Of cooking, while not 80
gilt edged as some other details of
camp life, yet possesses an interest to
men OF practical turn,and naturally to
