Steamer, Loaded With WOrknleH,

FOrty-One Missing

ST. Petersburg. April 21- From 25
to Al persons are believed to have
been drowned by the laundering of
the river steamer Archangelsk while
she was crossing the Ncva late Satur-
day night.
Owing to thickness of the wealth
err the accident was not seen from the
shore but the shouts for help of those
in distress attracted the crews of two
steamers which hastily went to the
scene only to find that the boat had
foundered. A number of her passen-
gers, mostly workingmen, were res
cued, but owing to the swiftness of
the current many others were swept
under The ice floes,
There is no means for establish
ing definitely the number of victims.
The passage across the river was SO
short that no count was made OF the
passengers, but according to the po-
lice Al persons. all workmen, are
missing.
The steamer had scarcely any bal
last and when she ran sidewise on a
big floe she careened and immediate
ly filled and sank. The catastrophe
was over inside of three minutes. All
those who were not Immediately res
cued sank beneath the icy waters.
The wreck was located this afternoon
lying on the bottom of the river 100
feet from shore. 1t was impossible
for divers to descend owing to the
ice.

At Sacred Heart, Father Curran
DiScOurSeS on "HumiIity and
the Folly Of Pride"

Humility and the folly of pride
were the topics upon which the Rev
Father Curran preached at the mass
Sunday morning at Sacred Heart
church. The text was taken from the
words OF Christ: after a while ye
shall not see me- and after a while
ye shall see me.
The apparent contradiction in
these words, said Father Curran, was
was readily explained by Christ, who
thus told his disciples that he was
about to depart from them and enter
heaven, and that later they should
see him there.
"There are many things to prevent
one attaining heaven" said Father
Curarn, "and the greatest of these is
pride All through the Bible can be
found examples of the punishment
meted out to the proud and naughty.
Nebuchadnezzar gloated over the
greatnes sof his kingdom and voice
from heaven warned him that his
subjects would revolt and Danish him
to the wilderness. This prophecy
was fulfilled, and he was driven to
the waste places where his hair be-
came as the eagles feathers and his
nails like the talons of the beasts in
the field.
1.-The sin of pride is madness and
its punishment is sure. Pride is one
of the most insidious evils and the
heart must be kept humble and SIM
pie. Christ was the great example OF
humility, and we should follow this
great example. Christ called atter.
ton to the humility of the children
when he was asked who should be
first in the kingdom of heaven and
said that unless one became as a lit
tie child he could in no wise enter the
kingdom of heaven.
Prudence and wisdom would I'm
pei one to follow the teachings Of
Christ when the shortness and uncer
tainty of life are considered, anC
when man is called to face God his
conceits and foibles pass away as the
dew before the rays of the noontide
sun"

SUNDAYS MESSAGE FROM THE PULPIT
AT St. BarthOlomew'S, Rev. DR..
Hunting breaches Of Fidelity
10 Life'S Duties

Fidelity to the duties of the spirit
ual and material life was the subject
of strong sermon on every day re-
Ii gion, preacehd by Rev. DR.. G. Z.
Funting at St Bartholomew Epis-
copal church yesterday morning.
"Thcy could find no occasion for
fault, inasmuch as he was faithful,
S aid Or. Hunting, quoting from Dan
ial GA. Daniel was a Jew in the
l.ingdom of Darius. an alien. who
was made second ruler over 122
princes. They sought to depose him
because of their jealousy, but nc
fault could be found with him be-
cause of his fidelity.
''Too much attention is sometimes
paid to the spiritual things. Life
should be more evenly balanced FL
deity should be observed in things
spiritual. Having come to know God
man should be obedient and faithful.
We should not have Sunday relig-
ION which we put on with our Sunday
clothes. We should carry it with us
all the time.
1--WE should be faithful to others.
We should be honest in business and
observe justice and not take advan-
tage. We should be so that all men
can depend on us and our word
should he as good as our bond. In
our work we should be loyal to our
employers and their interests, and If
we have no authority over us we
should be loyal to our ideals. None
| of us is to be held unaccountable for
our lives and for our acts.
Last of all we should be faithful
to ourselves, and we should do all
! we can for ourselves spiritually,
morally, mentally. We should de-
velop ourselves spiritually by being
sincere believers and practicers OF
our religion. We should be morally
true and pure. We should develop
ourselves morally and intellectually
by reading good books; by cultivat-
ing good associations and by being
mentally active We should seek
knowledge.
1.-The end of all is that we should
so live and act that it may be said to
us, Inasmuch as you have been faith
full over a few things | will make you
ruler over many.
There were two baptisms at the ev-
ening service, one child and one ad-
ult The attendance at each service
was large.

APRIL SNOW
PLAYS HAVOC
Colorado Fruit Crop Injured by
Heavy StOrm...EaSt Of Rockies
Worst Affected

Denver, April 21.-A sharp drop in
the temperature followed the snow
storm of last night, Ia degrees above
zero being recorded by the weather
bureau both in Denver and in Pueblo
and fruit of al, kinds in eastern Col
orado was effectually nipped in the
bud
At Grand Junction, the center of
the most important fruit growing dis
trict west of the continental divide,
the temperature fell to 80 degrees,
the weather observer there reporting
today that the condition of fruit was
grave. While the damage to fruit in
this state may amount to several mil
lion dollars, nearly all other crops
will be greatly benefited by the
moisture.
A remarkable feature of the snow
storm was that it was more severe
on the low lands than in the noun
tains. While the precipitation COW
cred large area, including all OF
Colorado, Wyoming and part of
Sonth Dakota, Nebraska, Texas and
New Mexico, the snow was almost en-
tirely confined to the eastern slope
of the Rock mountains and extended
from Lander, Wyoming, south. The
Colorado state line on the east vas
the limit of snow in that
direction and only light snow oc-
west of the continental divide.
The storm originated in the north
and worked it's way slowly to the
south, passing out of the state yester-
day.
Railroad traffic was not seriously
impeded by the snow storm.
