body runs across a spring, or digs
well, he gets the idea that it is
mineral water. However, we are
glad to get these samples for some
day we are going to run across, out
of them, some of the finest mineral
water ever found. Then, all this
trouble would be worth while.
"And, too, in our analyses, we
may find some time something very
harmful in one of the samples, and
would be able thereby TO save the
health and perhaps the lives, of the
people of the neighborhood from
which it came.
Water. lots of times, will denote
the presence of other matter. That

the water might reveal a deposit IF

While Repairs Were Being
Made to Boiler

NEWPORT, r. l., August 10
The death of three more victims of
the Mackinac, excursion steamer
boiler explosion brought the total
list of dead to 81 at noon TODAY
with several additional deaths mo-
mentarily expected.
The boiler Of the vessel, which
was en- route to Pawtucket from
Newport, with GIT passengers
aboard, burst about six o'clock
yesterday afternoon when the ship
was opposite the naval training
station in Narragansctt Sound Ii
is said that patch placed on the
boiler "the night" before had blown
off.
Most of the deaths came in the
dark hours just before dawn from
the effects of inhaling live steam.
Up to midnight orly four were
dead. An hour later the death list
had jumped to II and six more died
before 2:3O o'clock.
1t was hours before many of the
victims realized what happened. One
minute they were sitting on the
decks of the steamer enjoying the
twilight sail up the hey toward
their homes. Then in an instant
the whole ship was enveloped in
live steam, which Kissed through the
superstructures, fatally scalding
many. Few escaped at least touch
Of the pain of the steam when the
boilers blew up.
Captain George McVey, of Paw
tucket, in charge of the excursion
steamer, made the following state
ment:
II was in the pilot house with
Captain Benjamine Thon as of Prov
idence, the pilot, and Herbert
Sprenard, quartermaster and wire
less operator, when we heard a con-
cussion aft.
THE boat was moving four knots
an hour, its full speed. The con-
cussion was followed by the hiss
ing of escaping steam and immedi-
ately the steamer became envelop-
ed in a midst which cloaked the
view from all sides. A minute aft
er the engines stopped, | swung the
rudder on the boat and its own
momentum beached it a few min
utes later. The wireless operator
Immediately sounded the distress
call and ships from the squadron of
naval vessels stationed near the
training station rushed to our re-
cue"
Physicians and nurses still were
working over the injured through
the early hours of the morning,
while the less seriously. injured
awaited their turn.
A number of children separated

followed the explosion, were at va

the number of dead and injured
from that city.
Most of the injured were suffer
ing extreme pain from scalds from
steam which poured upward thru
the vessel from the shattered boil
ers.
The Mackinac left Pawtucket
early Tuesday morning bound for
Newport with a capacity crowd
aboard. Passengers said her de-

men from Kansas and Tennessee re-

They've been heard from alroady
to the strongest candidate to succoed
himself and intimating that he
owes 1t to his party to make tho
run because it surely can win
WIN him and there'd be dopbts
about anybody else.
More politicians whom the nrasi-
aeht can depend on may be looked
for confidently to express similar
sentiments as time progresses
until there's a whole chorus If
them.
If the president didn't like this
KIND of thing, he could stop it bv
saying so.
The Coolidge boosters undopbt-
eddy would be correct in their esti-
mate of his strength. if it were 1923
right now. But plenty of things
can happen in three years.
There isn't much inspiration in
President Coolidge. His political
shop is popular, not because the
voters are particularly thrilled bv
ITS proprietor, but because, up to
date, they've liked his goods,
However, the public taste in poll
teal goods changes. And seeming

Ultra-conservatism's in style at

eight (going on nine) years, That
a long time for one political style
to last.
Yes, President Coolidge's 1928
prospect looks all right now, but
wAether it stays that way is largely
matter Of pure luck-heads, ultra
conservatism lasts another three
years; tails, some new whim comes
in.
Luck! Coolidge has had a won
derf2l run of it ("Lucky CaP') but
the only sure thing about luck is
that it's bound to change"
That's the thought that other
politicians, who'd like look-in
themselves in 1923, are encourage
ing themselves with.
In his lifetime William jennings
Bryan's political honesty was cues
toned by his opponents over and
over again. Now he's dead, politi-
clans generally agree that never
was there an honester public man
often mistaken, many say, but al
ways sincere.
That, they add, explains the con-
sistency with which he maintained
his outstanding position and in
fluence for more than 80 years. He
was beaten but never in eclipse.
And why so regularly beaten?-
not in his own party counsels. for
there he seldom was, but personally,
as a candidate, at the polls? Again,
his honesty. He wouldn't COM
promise.
That's his eulogy in political
Washington.
