SWEPT TO DEATH
FROM A STEAMER
Five Known to be Lost and
Thirty Injured on the
Campania
DISASTER CAUSED BY BIG WAVE

Special TO The Evening Journal.
New York oct. 14-Five lives are known
to have been lost and more than thirty
persons injured, some of them seriously,
on the Cunard Line steamer Campania
last Wednesday. when gigantic wave
tolled over the steamer and swept across
1 deck thick with steerage passengers.
So sudden was the coming of the dis
lister and so great the confusion which
Intended and followed it that even the
,ficers Of the steamer themselves were
unable today, upon the vessels arrival
here, to estimate the full extent Of the
tragedy 1t is possible that the five per-
cons known to be missing from the steer
age may not constitute the full number
81 dead.
When the Campania reached quarantine
today ten Of the injured passengers were
still in the ships hospital, some of them
seroiusly hurt, and score Of others nurs-
ing minor injuries.
DECK SWEPT BY BIG WAVE.
The Campania was ploughing along un-
der full headway last Wednesday after
noon. A heavy quartering sea was rum
ming. but the weather conditions We're far
from unpleasant, and the big boats decks
were crowded with passengers. The steer
age deck was covered with merry-makers.
and there was nothing to indicate the ap-
preaching disaster when suddenly the
big steamer lurched TO port and scooped
up an enormous sea.
The wave boarded the steamer about
midship on the port side and swept clear
across the steerage deck, completely fill
ing the space between that deck and the
deck above and carrying everything with
It. The steamers side was buried so deep
that the passengers on the deck above the
steerage were submerged to their waists
as the immense volume Of water rolled
aft and then surged forward.

SIR HENRY IRVING
DIES SUDDENLY
He Acted on Last Night
of His Distinguished
Career
END CAME At BRADFORD, ENGLAND

London. Get. 14-sir Henry Irving. the
distinguished actor and manager, died
suddenly last night at Bradford. where he
had been giving a series of farewell per-
formances.
He appeared at the Theatre Royal and
was apparently enjoying his customary
health. He returned to his hotel where
he was suddenly attacked by syncope at
1l.sO o'clock, and he died in few minutes
without speaking.
Physicians We're summoned Immediate
ly the seizure occurred, but apparently
they could have done nothing TO save him
even If they had been present when he
was attacked
All the performances billed during Sir
Henrys stay had been carried out pune
tually. He had acted the exhausting part
of Matthias in "The Bells the previous
night with all the vigor OF his best days.
Although he had never been quite the
same man since his illness at Wolver-
hampton some months ago, none OF his
intimate friends imagined that his life
was so near its end lie, however. when
talking 10 friends and in his public
speeches referred to the approaching close
OF his life.
KNEW THAT END WAS NEAR
1t was only on Wednesday. when he was
a guest Of the Mayor Of Bradford at a
public luncheon. that he described himself
as one the sands of whose working life
were fast running out. This and similar
illusions were interpreted sympatheticaly
as the natural platitudes Of a hard work
ed man who was nearing 20 years Of oge.
II is doubtful if they were otherwise in
tended.
The occasion Of the luncheon was the
presentation of an address by his admir-
ers. regretting that it was his last visit
TO Bradford Sir Henry. replying to the
address. readvocated the establishment
Of municipal theatres, as cheme which
was always dear to him.
Sir Henry Irving, one Of the leading
actors Of the nineteenth century, and prob
ably the greatest actor living at the OPEN
ing Of the twentieth century, a man who
for many years dominated the English
speaking stage an dmade his inhuenc'
felt in the acted drama OF other tongues
was sixty-seven years old when he died.
not a particularly advanced age-whicl
goes to show the early dominance Of 81
Henry's power.
Sir Henry was born John Henry Brod
ribb. on February 6. 1ssS in somersetshiri
England. and passed his early boyhood q
Cornwall. After a brief schooling he be
gan life as a clerk in n London East In
dia house. but through a so-called cit!
elocution class" he learned where hi
bent lay. and adopted the stage as
career. appearing first in 1856. when HI
was eighteen years old, in Bulwer
"Richelieu."
The next year he entered a stock com
many in Edinburgh. playing with the lead
ing stars OF the time. In the two year.
and half Of his stay with this COMPANY
he played 42S recorded parts. Such was al
actors training in those days.

DoN'Ts FOR THE YOUNG.

Don't think it smart to be sarcastic.
Rudeness is often mistaken for wit.
Don't grow old too rapidly. The
world is sweeter in youth than old age.
Don't laugh nor talk loudly in public
places, nor in any way attract undue
attention. It is vulgar to force ones
self on the notice of others. g..
Don't risk meeting with accident to
prove yourself brave. Many persons
are seriously hurt through toolhardi-
ness and a desire TO ''show off,
Don't lose your temper because it
rains on day when you have planned
for an outing. The elements cannot
postpone work, but you can postpone
pleasure. s*...ss, Ia +.
:-s Don't ape the manners of the blase
man or woman. It is sad to see these
living who no longer take q keen IN
terest in life. The world is full of
beauty, change and goodness.
Don't linger lin the hall or at the
door when taking leave Of host. and
hostess. Your call is ended, when you
rise to depart and you should stand
not upon the order Of going, but go ct
once. .Ss. ..@ ssS* .:z#s
