ulatlons of the casualties in the sink
ing Of the steamer Empress of Ireland
were being made Saturday, showing
that 403 Of her passengers and crew
had been rescued and 964 had per-
ished, Captain Henry George Kendall
of the liner was telling his story OF

by Coroner Pinaud here.
Captain Kendall in substance de-
clared that he had taken all possible
precautions against collision. His
ship had been stopped. he gave the
requisite signals when the Danish col
lier Storstad. which dealt the blow.
which sent the Empress to the bottom,
was still two miles away. but the COL
lier had kept on through the fog which
settled soon after the two vessels
sighted each other. and had rammed
the Empress while the latter was vir-
tually motionless.
Then. despite his plea to the master
OF the collier that he run his engines
full speed ahead, to keep the hole in
the liners side plugged with the Stor-
stad's bow. said Captain Kendall, the
Danish vessel backed away. the water
rushed in. and the Empress sank.
Captain Kendall. who stuck TO the

being picked up by lifeboat aided in

lot Thursday night at Father Point.

TECHNICALLY ONCE OF USE

When Criminal Laws Were SO

You remember the trial scene IN

plea TO "wrest once the law to your
authority" ShyloCk is whetting his

OYSTER NOT GOOD FOR ALL
Welcome Visitor, According
to Physician.

II is popularity supposed that the
oyster digeSts himself in the human
stomach owing to the great size of the
liver. which is crushed as mastica-
ton begins and is thought TO digest
the mollusk itself. As the oyster,
moreover. contains some ten per cent.
of extremely assimilation protein, to-
gether with phosphorized fats and
glycogen. ii has always been freely ad-
ministered to cOnvalescents. while
dyspeptic bOns vivants have never
hesitated to eat it abundantly.
Doctor Prom expresses the opinion
that the oyster may be allowed,
therefore, to those dyspeptics whose
gastric functions are deficient. in
anorexla, gastric atony, ulcer and in
cipient cancer. and to convalescents
from acute disease. as it is likely to
improve the appetite and to excite the
stomach to increased motor and chem
ical activity.
But to the large number of dyspep-
tics whose stomachs are hyperacid or
representative Doctor Prom would
forbid the oyster as well as all other
stimulating foods. In many of these
dyspeptics the gastric secretion is al
ready sufficient. and 1t is unnecessary
and unwise to increase it.

What Came Up.

An Englishman was driving around

CAPT. ALEXANDER
 NOW 4 BENEDICT

The following, taken from the Chicago Examiner, evidently refers to Captain James Alexander, own CT and manager of the Engineer mine. in Northern British Columbia, who passed through Skagway last fall on his way outside. If the ac- count be true, wEich VIC have no reason to doubt, we beg to offer our earnest congratulations to the happy couple.
 Miss Abbie Williams, the "pret- jest nurse in St Luke's Hospital," |" -Ioped Tuesday at noon with Cap tain James Alexander, formerly of the British army, said to be a mil Houairo and manager Of a large group of mines in Alaska, owned by au English syndicate.
 The elopement took place just two weeks after Captain Alexander became iu and was sent to the hospital from the Blackstone Hotel. Miss Williams, who was to have been a member of the graduation class in September, was designated to be his nurse.
 Captain Alexander left the hos rttal Friday and every day after that, including Tuesday. so the nurses say. "Bulie" as Miss Will Hams was called by her class mates, had lunch with the English army officer
 She arranged her hours for this luncheon and Tuesday when she went away she never returned to the hospital.
 "I just wanted to tell you girls good-by, Billie" said over the teIe- phone Tuesday.
 The whole hospital system had been re-organIzed when she failed to return from lunch and the nurses were worried.
 .I got married today at 4 o'clock. You remember the man nursed last w-ok-Captain Alexander. It was d shame not to let you girls in on it, but l just couldn't. That's where I've been getting all that candy I've been feeding you girls recently
 Where are we going to live? Nowhere right yet. I'm leaving in a few minutes for the west and then We so 10 Alaska where I'll stay a while.
 "I never thought I'd have such luck with a husband. It seemed from the first day that l couldn't help loving him, so you musen't be shocked over anything happening so quickly. I'll write you letters. Good bye"
 And that's all the girls know bout it.
 Captain Alexander, who came from New York to Chicago to buy machinery, had been in the city only a few days when he became iIL
