Frankfort, KY, June johnson
N. Camden, of Woodford county,

ton date, when his appointiye term

streets tonight that Mr.. Beckham
himself might enter the primary as
candidate for the long and short
term both. When asked if he would

Somebody Damned" The River,
Etc. and Echo Answers
"WhO?"

Somebody put the iron foodgate
in the Second street dam one night
last week. 1t is not yet known who
did it. One story is that about 20
half-grown kiks who needed the
swimming pool in their business
formed working squad and tug
ged at the big iron gate until they
got it in place and daubed the
cracks with mud the best they could.
Anyhow, the gate is in and the boys
have adopted the Wilson policy of
"watchful waiting" while the river
is creeping up the sun-dried banks
an inch a day, fed by the springs
above the dam. The farmers may
think they need rain to planl
another 2O.000.000 pound tobacco
crop in Christian county, but they
should watch the look of anxiety on
the faces of the 'barefooted boys"
of Hopkinsville, whenever a cloud
the size of mans hand appears in
the sky. The council will probably
decide Friday night whether or not
to let the gate stay in and possibly
may elect a custodian to conduct
the bathhouse as usual.

964 LIVES ARE LOST
BY COLLISION OF STEAMERS
One Ocean Liner Rams Another In st. Lawrence River And
Sinks Her In IA Minutes
THREE FOURTHS OF ALL THE PEOPLE ON BOARD ARE LOST

Rimouski, Quebec, June 1.-Sink-
Ing in ninety feet of water within
fifteen minutes after being rammed
amidships in the upper reaches of
the st. Lawrence river early Friday,
the Canadian Pacific liner Empress
of Ireland carried down with her
more than 900 of her passengers
and crew. Of the 1857 persons on
board the liner, only 403 are known
to have been saved, making the
probable death list 964 Unlike the
Titanic's victims the Empress pas
sengers lost their lives within sight
of shore-in land locked waters.
Most of the lost were English people
and Canadians. lawrence Irvinl,
the actor, son Of Sir Henry irwin,
and his wife, Mabel Hackney, were
lost.
Immediately the ships crew re-
covered from the shock of the coils
ION and it was seen that the liner
had received a vital blow a wireless
IS. o. S" call was sounded.
The hurried appeal was picked up
by the government mail tender
Lady Evelyn here and the govern
ment pilot boat Eureka at Father
Point and both set out to the rescue.
So deep was the hart of the En-
press, however, and so fast the in
rush of waters, that long before
either of the rescue boats could
reach the scene the liner had gone
down. Only floating wreckage and
"a few lifeboats and RATS from
steamer, buoying up less than a
third of those who had set sail on
her were to be found.
The rest had sunk with the liner,
had been crushed to death in the
Storstad's impact with her, or had
been forced from exposure in the
ice,chilled waters to loose their hold
on bits of wreckage and had
drowned.
Only few persons were picked
up by the Storstad, which was badly
crippled herself, and these were
brought here by the Collier, togeth-
er with those saved by the Eureka
and the Lady Evelyn. Twenty-Five
of the rescued died from injury or
exposure.
Accounts agree that in the brief
space of time-not more than four.
teen minutes-between the shock of
the collision and the sinking of the
liner, there was little chance for sys-
tematic marshaling of the passen-
gers. Indeed, everything indicates
that hundreds Of those on the steam
er probably never reached the decks.
Few women were among the saved,
