FIVE LIVES LOST
IN BURNING SHIP
A Passenger and Four Coal Pass
ers Perish on the Naomi
DIE TRYING TO REACH DECK
Flames Light Up Darkened Sky as
Steamer Burns Down to Waters
Edge in the Middle of Lake
Michigan, on Grand Haven.

Grand Haven, MIGHT'VE lives
were lost and seventy-fve men and
women had narrow escapes from
death when the steamer Naomi, of
the Crosby transportation Company,
burned in the middle Of Lake Mich
igan. J. H. Rhodes, a passenger, of
Detroit, was one of the victims; the
others were coal passers.
The steamer left this city late at
night for Milwaukee with a full list
of passengers and the hold filed with
merchandise. Among the passeEg gers
were Joseph Heine, of No. II East
129th street, and Samuel Waterman,
of No 80 Water street, New York.
The fire started at 100 a. NJ, when
the passengers were asleep.
The captain of the steamer Kansas,
which was proceeding to Grand
Haven, in the opposite direction, saw
flames leaping from the Naomi's port
holes. He blew signal of alarm
and Captain Trail, of the Naomi,
sent lookout to investigate. He
found the hold rapidly burning.
The crew awakened the passen-
gers of the burning steamer and they
huddled upon the upper deck, a
frightened, screaming throng.
Captain Trail sent up signals for
help, and in few minutes three
steamers, whose lights could be seen
short distance away, came to the
rescue. Several of the life RATS and
boats on the Naomi were destroyed
before the crew could get them low
cred By the time the three steamers
had reached the scene the Naomi's
boats were in the water filled with
people, and several passengers were
still huddled on the stern of the burn
ing ship. The captain of the steamer
Kerr, of the rescuing fleet, drew his
big steel ship up under the Naomi's
stern so close that the imperilled
people leaped to her deck.
Rhodes lost his life because he was
unable to reach the upper deck.
Stumbling as he ran, his night clothes
caught fire and he was SO badly
burned that ne died while being hur-
ried on another steamer toward this
port. The four coal pa5sers were
caught in the forward end of the
steamer, and as the flames drew
nearer thrust their heads out of the
portfolios and begged to be saved.
1t was impossible to- reach them
through the wall of flames and they
were burned to death.
The passengers who were rescued
escaped with only their night clothes.
Some of them were slightly burned.
The crew of the Naomi did valiant
work restraining panic-stricken wom-
en- from leaping into the water.
The hulk of the Naomi burned for
three hours. The reflection of the
flames could be seen on the lake for
miles away.

ROOSEVELT TALKS FOR
The AMERICAN BOYS
Tells Archie's SchooImates to Be
Brave, Strong, Gentle and Kind.
LEARN 70 HOLD THEIR OWN
The Bully the Meanest Boy in the
World, Declares the President
Defines Desirable Citizens-Hit
the Line Hard,

Washington, D. C. - President
Roosevelt delivered an address at the
annual presentation exercises of the
Friends Select School in this city,
where Archie Roosevelt is student.
His subject was THE American Boy"
The President said:
Il want to see the boy enjoy him
self. The boy at play sometimes ex-
hibits these qualities which determine
the kind of man he will make If he
d1slikes his work, if he shirks his stu
dies, he will develop into great fail
ure in everything else. If he hasn't
character to study, he won't have
character to play. Play hard when
you play, and work hard when you
work. Right here there is as great a
lesson for the grown-ups as for the
younger ones.
Il want to see the boy work hard,
but at the same time / want to see
him remember the other side of life.
want to see you brave and strong,
and l want to see you gentle and
kind. These are the qualities that
make up the good citizen. | want to
see you so conduct yourselves that
among your fathers and mothers
there will be feeling of regret, and
not relief when you are away from
home"
The element of courage in the
young boy, as essential and impera-
tive along with any other trait, was
the basis for some references by the
President.
When you are out among your
playmates, he said, don't be afraid
OF the little boy who happens to be
rude to you. The boy who is too nice
to hold his own is not the boy who
will grow to be the best citizen. When
you boys grow to manhood l want to
see you put the wrongdoer out of the
way, and to make the man who does
wrong feel that you are his superior
both in strength and character If
you can't hold your own you will be
curse in any environment and remain
the dread of those around you.
"The bully, the boy who would
maltreat weaker boy or an animal,
is one of the meanest boys in the
world. / want to see you protecting
those who are weak against those
who would Cypress the weak. It's
boy who becomes citizen that will
be strong enough to abhor and de-
spise the betrayal of a trust and
strong enough to stand for the right
Hardness of heart and softness of
head was the term applied by the
President to many parents whose
boys were utter failures, and who
lacked the fundamental principles for
good citizenship. He declared that
the mother who permitted her boy to
have his own way without restrain,
and whose selfish wishes were always
granted without a single curb, would
see that boy develop into an undesir-
able citizen and a selfish and brutal
husband or father"
Now, have finished, and just a
closing word to you, boys said the
President. II am going to give you
some of the rules of which am fond
and which are as applicable in life as
on the football field: Don't finch,
don't foul and hit the line hard

M'KINLEYS WIDOW DEAD
Assassinated Presidents Wife
Passed Away at Canton, Ohio.
She Was an Invalid For Many Years
Her Health Shattered After
Death OF Two Daughters.

Canton, Ohio.-MrS. Ida McKin-
ley, widow of President William Nc
Kinley, died at the famous Mckinley
cottage here. The transition from
life to death was so peaceful and
gradual that it was with difficulty
that the physicians and attendants
noted when dissolution came. Mrs.
Mckinley did not know of the efforts
made for days to prolong her life.
Mrs. McKinleys last words before
she became unconscious showed that
death would not be unwelcome An
attendant said:
Mrs. Mckinley would say: Why
should I linger Please God, if it is
Thy will, why defer it?' She would
also say: He is gone, and life is dark
to me now Other kindred express
sions would fall from her lips
Mrs. McKinley's life of almost sixty
years had been made familiar to the
Nation by the fact that more than
half of it was a period of invalidism.
Through all that, however, she
showed firm and unwavering belief
in the career of her husband, and by
her cheerful words, in spite of per-
sonal Affections, encouraged him in
his darkest hours. She believed his
star of destiny never would set until
he had become President, and for
more than quarter century she
cherished that belief until her hope
was realized.
Ida Saxton Mckinley was born in
Canton June 8, 1847 James A. Sax,
ton, her father, was an intellectual
and progressive business man and
banker, his wife woman of extraor-
binary culture and refinement. Ida
Saxton was reared in home of COM
fort and ease. After attending Can
ton school she was a pupil in pri-
vate school at Delhi, N. Y. She next
went to Cleveland academy, and
finished her education in Brook Hill
Seminary, Media, Pa, where she stu
died for three years.

JOHN r. HEGEMAN INDICTED.
Insurance Magnate Held For Forgery
in Third Degree and For Perjury.

New York City.-Ten indictments
were filed by the special May Grand
Jury against John r. Hegeman, pres
ident of the Metropolitan Life Insur-
ance Company-three charging per-
jury and seven forgery in the third
degree.
Hegeman will be represented by
De Lancey Nicoll and John G. Mil
burn. The People will be represented
by District Attorney Jerome or by
Assistant District Attorney Smyth.
The most important point brought
to light before the Armstrong Insur-
ance Investigating Committee, and
which formed the principal basis for
the investigation by the Grand Jury,
was that for many years Hegeman
had made it practice to sell all the
loans made to individuals on Deem
Der 8 / of each year, and to buy them
back on January of the new year
following. This made it possible for
the company to make no mention of
these assets in its annual reports to
the Insurance Department
The borrowers, who were concealed
by this method, included President
Hegeman himself, John A. Mccall,
president of the New York Life, and
Silas 3. butcher, Of the Hamilton
Trust Company.
The indictments for forgery are
based on the alleged "doctoring" of
the books of the company and the in
dictments for perjury on the alleged
false statements to the Insurance De-
partment regarding loans.
With the Metropolitan investiga-
ton out of the way the District At
torneys office will go in earnest into
the affairs of the Equitable Life AS.
surance Company.
