STEAMER OFFICER

Federal Surgeon Says He Was
Called Upon for Morphine by
Mate of Inflated Columbia,
LBy Morning journal special Leased Wire. ]


Eureka, Cal, July 27.-'I gave an
Injection of morphine to Third Officer
Hawse of the Columbia. and was So
llicited for more by him twice after
ward, but | refused"
This statement was made by DR.. s.,
B. Foster. the United States marine
hospital surgeon, in answer to inqui-
ries relative to stories circulated about
Hawse by passengers on the Elder
who said that the man was moR-
phine fiend.
81 don't know that the officer was
intoxicated when he came to me for
morphine. In fact, / don't think he
was but I thought 1t a little queer
that an officer of a steamship would
want the drug. He told me he was
not injured. but was only nervous and
unable to sleep. But he said he had
taken the drug before. and that 1t had
always had a comforting effect.
Hawse Is the man who made
charges against Captain Hansen,
which would make It appear that the
master of the san Pedro IL responsible
for a greater loss of life than other
wise would have taken place.

TBy Morning Journal Special Leased Wire. !

IBy Morning journal Special Leased Wire. I
Auburn, n. Y, July 27.--The steam
boat Frontenac was burned and
beached opposite Farley's Point at
Lake Cayuga today, and nine lives
were lost. The victims were all
women and children passengers and
all were drowned. Several other pas
sengers We're severely burned before
the boat could be beached She lies
tonight burned and blackened in
seHen feet of water The bodies of the
drowned women and children have
been recovered.
The Dead.
The following are the drowned:
MRS. HOMER GENUNG, Freeville
CARL GENUNG, seven-year-old
son Of Mrs. Genung
MRS. ZALIA M'CREERY, Cocoahs
MISS LYDIA BENNETT, Frank
fort.
MISS STELLA CLINTON, Ithaca.

acuse.
Six-year-old daughter of Howard
Able, South Bloomingburn.
TWO UNIDENTIFIED WOMEN.
The Worst Injured.
Mrs. Able. South Bloomingburn
Eliza Tuttle, Middletown.
Charlotte Brigham, Syracuse.
The steamer Frontenac. an old side
wheel double deck craft, which has
made trips between Ithaca and Cay
uga on Lake Cayuga for twenty-five
years left the former place this after
noon for the upper lake points, car
rying fifty passengers and a crew Of
twelve.
In midlake fire broke out in the
engine room and, famed by a swift
northeast wind. spread quickly to the
afterward section of the boat. The
crew of twelve behaved splendidly,
fighting the flames at first, but see
ing that nothing could save the boat,
turned all their attention to the pas
gengers. Life preservers were put on
every one that could be found, but in
spite of their efforts nine women and
children perished. Captain Brown
directed the work Of the crew, and
was the last to leave the burning
boat
In strong contrast to the bravery Of
the crew was the pahic, and in some
instances cowardice of many of the
men among the passengers. In their
efforts to save themselves they seri-
ously impeded the work of the crew
and endangered the lives of every one
on the steamer This is according to
the statements of the crew.
When the Flames were first discov-
cred in midlake. Captain Brown turn
ed the prov Of his little steamer to-
ward the shore and set his crew to
work to subdue the flames If possible,
and to calm the passengers and see
that they got life-preservers.
The flames made rapid headway,
however. and there was great excite
ment among the passengers as. they
were driven to the bow Of the boat.
The boat was beached at Farley's
Point, where there are number of
summer cottages. Men from these
cottages did valiant work in rescuing
THE passengers and in caring for the
injured Ii is not known just how the
women and children were thrown into
the water. It IL thought however,
that they became panic stricken and
either Jumped into the water as the
boat neared the shore, or were forced
overheard In the rush To get into the
boats that put off.

RIFLE SHOOTING.
Develops the Arms, Lungs and Ches'
and Trains the Eye.

Develops the Arms, Lungs and Chest
and Trains the Eye.
1t Is not only the muscles of the arm
which are tested by properly organ
lied rife shooting. 1t supplies an ex-
cellent exercise for the chest and
lungs. One of the first things the young
rifle shot has to learn Is how to take
deep breath, to fill the lungs with air,
and then to hold the breath while the
rifle Is kept absolutely steady and the
finger Is gradually tightening on the
trigger. A glance at any successful
rifle shot will show you man with
deep chest and full powers of breath
ing.
Any form of recreation which trains
the muscles Of the arm and exercises
the chest and lungs would seem likely
to be beneficial to health, but II that
is not enough there is the unequaled
training which rifle shooting gives to
the eye and to the hand working with
the eye. The writer remembers hear
ing musketry instructor boast that
he had heightened not only his own
sight, but the sight of scores of boys
whom he had taught how to use their
eyes In aiming at target by two or
three hundred yards, simply by con-
tinued practice at long distance shoot
ing. 1t is astonishing what results can
be obtained in this way by placing a
rife on sand bag raised on a tripod
and making the pupil aim as accurate
ly as he can at any distant object. The
eye can be trained, of course, equally
well, though the sight will not neces-
sarily be lengthe. ned. by aiming at OBJ

Stamping Their Goods.

Z The druggists of town, are hard at
work stamping their goods with the
cabalistic formula 80 H., 1871 CO."
which being interpreted is "On Hand,
December 81, 1906"
The regulations of the pure food bill
require that all goods on hand at that
date may be so stamped. If stamped
they may be disposed of until October
/, 1907. After that date all foods must
conform with the pure food bill.
Grocers are receiving their ship
ments of goods stamped or ticketed
the same way. This will continue un-
til October II, 1907, after which all
the goods must have date of packing
or preparation and the formula used
in manufacture.
Here rises the point which legal
lights say makes the bill emasculated.
They cannot compel the dealers who
nave goods on hand manufactured un-
Aer the old law to sell these goods be :
fore the above date. Yet they cannot
compel them to cease selling them be-
cause to pass bill prohibiting the
sale of goods manufactured before the
law is passed is an expost facto law,
which in this country is forbidden.

"Can you point out man who at

ally disposed of during the afternoon.
In the meantime it was decided to
hear some testimony on the case for
the enlightenment of the court.
George Fausnaught, the father of
the little victim, Officer Voris, Ralph
Hines, Roy carp, and Willie Faus-
naught, were called to the stand. The
details of the sad affair are well known
to our readers. There was an element
of deep pathos in the testimony of lit
ties Gus 'Earp, ten years of age. He
said that George Fausnaught was sit
ting or STOPPING near the edge of the
deep Soaking pitt, when Clarence
Carr stole up behind him, and seizing
him by the ankles, threw him forward
and headfirst down into the water.
Little George sank and then rose, sink
ing again. The drowning boy, when
he came to the surface was "black and
blue" in the face. Carr, he said, made
no attempt to assist him, but only
laughed. The witness said that he told
Carr that he was going "to tell on
him." but that Carr told him that if
he did so he "would smash his face. "
The result of this threat was that the
little boy kept the dreadful secret
locked up in his bosom until the next
morning, when he told his mother all
about it.
