1877 DROWN IN ICY
WATERS OF NORTH
Fishing Steamer Aurora Re-
ported Sunk With Loss
of All Her Crew.

st. Johns, n. F., April 25.-The seal
ing steamer Boothic, which arrived
here late last night, has brought from
the fishing bank a report that the
steamer Aurora has been sunk. 1t IS
feared, according TO the report cur
rent at the fishing banks, that her en-
tire crew of 1877 men lost their lives.
No definite confirmation of the re-
port was obtained by the crew Of the
Boothic before they left the fishing
grounds. and apparently no more def
mite news of the disaster is to be ex-
pected until the next arrival from the
fishing grounds.
Boston, April 26.-From meager de-
tails received in this city early this
morning from st. Johns it was impOs-
sible to identify the boat positively
The marine register describes several
vessels named Aurora, but the missing
ship is believed to be the property of
the Consolidated Steam Fishing & Ice
company of Grimsby, Eng, and was
engaged in the sealing industry.
She had been missing since April /,
and it was feared she went down in
collision with an iceberg in the fog.
The several vessels composing the fleet
cruised over the waters Of the North
Atlantic I'm the Gulf of ST. Lawrence
and along the Labrador coast, but no
trace of the missing ship could be seen,
and no natives could be found who had
heard of any such shipwreck along the
coast.
The reports brought by the Boothic
may be simply repetition Of rumors
which have been current of the loss of
the boat. Or they may indicate the
fishing fleet has obtained confirmation
of the rumors, definitely establishing
that the Aurora is lost and the crew
probably drowned.

IA SUCCESSFUL REVIVAL

The grand revival meeting at the

vival Aside from the 156 new addi-
tions that have been made to the mem
bership roll Of the church the members
were greatly benefited spiritually, have
renewed their covenant with the Lord
with a promise Of doing more for the
upbLilding Of His kingdom in the fu-
ture than in the past, and the good
work Of the meeting will not only be
beneficial to the Baptist congregation

The revival surpassed any meeting
ever held in the history Of the church

closing service the interest in the
meeting grew and many times at the
evening services the large building

the code now known as the
Queensberry rules was drawn up
by J. G. Chambers of the London
Amateur Athletic lcub. To obtain
patronage, Chambers induced the
marquis of Queensberry to father
the code.
The intention of the new rules
was to do away with the brutality

credit of the ring followers that
the new rules became popular.
Instead of bare fist duels, the
fighting game became more and
more popular when the opponents
appeared with padded fists-sure-
ly a great advance over the origi-
nal gloves" of the Romans and
the bare dukes of old England.
The first man recognized as the
American champion of the world
was Paddy Ryan, who lost to
John l.. Sullivan. Sullivan main

and knockdown fighter, in whose

fighting game, Jas j. Corbett.
Corbett revolutionized fighting
by introducing footwork. Instead
of standing still and parrying. he
moved about, stepping in to lane
a blow and getting away before
his opponent could return. Fast,
shifty and game, he made men
marvel.
Corbett was supreme until he

Bob Fitzsimmons. in whom game
