GENEROUS
employees

The employees in the Lion. store are
watching the outcome of an operation
on fellow emp1oye, a young woman.
at St. Margarets hospital which was
possible by the generosity of all the
people in the store.
The girl who is IS years old has
been in the hospital now for two weeks,
and according to all indications the
operation is a pronounced success, hav-
ing been performed on her lower lip.
with view of restoring ii to its for
mer shape
Ever since her childhood her facial
features have been marred. and while
the defect might have been rmedied
long ago by skillfui surgical opra- :
tion. the financial circumstances of the
girls parents never permitted this.
The disfguration was due, 1t is said
to a cold sore on her lower lip. which
caused a defective growth. For nearly
two years now she has held her place
in the little army of workers in the big
store, and as time went on she became
the subject of deep sympathy of her
fellow workers.
Frequently her distressful condition
was the subject of discussions among
the clerks Finally the best diplomat
selected to broach the delicate
subject of giving her unasked assist
ance. Like a sensible girl she accept
ed it gratefully. and purse of more
than 500 was promptly raised in the
store and more will be forthcoming il
necessary. The operation alone is said
to have cost 500 or more. but the gen
erous contributors feel we'll repair by
the look of happiness that they now
see on the girls face when they visit
her at the hospital

List of Survivors
Is Complete

Thousands of hopeful hearts were
turned to despairing ones when the
United States scout cruiser Chester
wirelessed ashore late yesterday that
she had been in communication with
the Carpathia and had asked repeatedly
for the full list of the first and second
cabin survivors and that the rescue
ship reported that all the names had
already been sent ashore.
The remainder of $40 persons saved
were passengers in the steerage or
members of the crew.
After the strain of three days wait
ing without news of their missing ones
there were few of the hopeful that still
held out against the seemingly final
word as to the fate of friends and rel
atives.
The small remaining hope of the few
who persistently refused to believe the
worst rested on the faint possibility
that the list of survivors sent by wire
less from the Carpathia might after all
not be quite complete.
The Lake County times. [volume] (Hammond, Ind.) 1906-1933, 1912-04-18

''She has a total of 7o5 survivors on
board"
The previous statement from the
Carpathia had been that she carried sss
survivors. 1t may be that the report
received through the Franconia in
cluded count of rescued passengers
only. disregarding the 100 or more
members of the crew who must have
been in the boats which the Carpathia
picked up.
Communication was being had with
the Carpathia last night through both
the scout cruiser Chester and the shore
wireless station at Siasconseft.
Through the Chester there began COM
ing slowly the names of saved passen-
gers from the third cabin of the Tit
anic.

Carpathia Is
Due Today.

The fact that one new name came
through late yesterday in a private
message from the Carpathia- was the
basis of what was desire more than
a hope that there were slips enough in
her wireless lists to account for a few.
at least. of those still unaccounted for.
At the best, however, Il appeared that
II could be only occasional one
whose safety had not been reported
through some error of compilation on
the liner or of wireless transmission.

proximately 900 miles from New York
yesterday morning. and which is ex-
pected. If she keeps up her rate of
progress of thirteen knots an hour, to

o'clock tonight. came a new report dur
ing the day as to the number of sur
vivors on board.

The 2S2 cabin passengers whose

JAMES l.. GRAHAM.

Judge James L. Graham, candiGate for associate justice of the supreme court. is a man well fitted for the po- sition in temperament, education, ability and experience. He will re- ceive practically the unanimous vote in Garland county, and from reports from over the state it appears that his majority will be overwhelming.
 Judge Graham is not partisan poli- tician, but T jurist of great ability,
 and he is well known as such through -a6 }Ae entire state. He believes that judicial offices should be removed from partisan politics, and this posi- tion is eminently correct. Being one of the foremost lawyers in the state: one Of the most highly educated men in the south. his nomination and cleo ti0n would reflect credit on the ju- dietary of the state In recognition of his ability as iarist it is said that al political factions in the state are enthusiastically supporting his candidacy His ancestors were some of the leading iurists of this country his grandfather 1as tGe democratic nominee for vice president of the United States on the ticket with Gen eral Winfield Scott he people Of Jhe state will make nn mistake m electing Judge Graham an associate justice of the supreme coart.-Hot Springs Sentinel Record. adyt.
