If anyone had told us that our friend,

If anyone had told us that our friend, A. T. Bennett, was as sly fox as he has proven himself, we should not have be- leved 1t. Here he was in Wraugell a few days ago and when asked by re- porter what had happened or what was going to happen, said Nothing" And yet, in the face of that, at Petersburg, last Sunday, July :, he was united in marriage to Mrs. Jessie sherman, Rev. H. P. Corser officiating. Oh, well, the SENTINEL can do no more than forgive him and wish him and his the fullest measurs of happiness.

MOUNT ROYAL
 IS WRECKED
And Six Persons are Drowned in the
 Skeena River, Sunday

The pride of the inland waters, the elegant steamer Mount Royal, Captain Johnson, is wreck in the Skeena River and six souls sleep beneath the waters of that turbid and treacherous stream. Such was the intelligence flashed over the wires to Capt. Bucey of the Hazelton at about 7 o'clock last Sunday evening and startled this community more than any report that has reached Wrsngell in years. The cause of the disaster was not giv- en. It occurred at Kitsalas Canyon, where the channel is as crooked as snake and the water runs with almost irresistible force. At the upper end of the canyon are numerous big rocks in mid-strsam, while jagged and dangerous rocks iut out from the shore opposite. Although the body of the stream is trifle wider than the length of steamer, under reversed engines and back pad ding of the wheel, boat must be wormed through this dangerous place. It was Capt. Bucey's opinion that it was at this point where the wreck occurred, perhaps through some defect in the working of the boats rudder, as the Mount Royal was very quick to respond to her helm. This is only supposition as to the cause, but 1t looks very plausi- ble. As the steamer was insured, the loss will probably not amount to much, except through the inconvenience caused to shippers.
 It is the loss of life to six human be- ings that appeals strongly to the sym plthies of the people. The drowned are
 VIM. LEWIS, first officer.
 JIMMY O'KEEFE, purser.
 WILLIS, steward.
 -JERO, ship carpenter.
 FRANK AMATA, deckhand.
 - PRAYNE. passenger, presumably.
 The loss of these men is accounted for in by Capt. Bucey in this way That at the point mentioned above it is neces- sary to stand ready to fend the boat off the rock that stands in mid-stream j; that the men stood reads for the task i; that the boat struck the rock and the momentum threw them overheard, after which man could no more be saved than if he went into the whirlpool below Niagara. But, whatever the cause, it is sad and calls forth the regrets of every sympathetic community.
 The Hazelton was instructed to return to the Skeena at once, and left Monday morning at 6 o'clock.
 LATER-The Princess Beatrice brings additional particulars; The Mt. Royal was on her way up stream. Just as she was entering the canyon @ gust of wind struck her and threw her against the rocks. The seventy passengers were gotten ashore in safety, The purser and steward returned to the boat to get some papers and provisions, and in an instant the steamer slipped off the rocks and went to pieces. Capt. Johnson was thrown into the water, but was rescued with difficulty.

list of casualties, which are vastly
more than for the previous year. Can
nothing be done To prevent this ap.
