SWAMP-ROOT A BLESSING TO WOMEN My kidnevs and biadder gave me great trouble for over two months and 1 suffeped un. SEATTLE, Wash., Jan. 9.—E. Parker, an oiler on the Clallam, fought against the flood that poured into the hold of | the ill-fated vessel until the water was | up to his neck, and then got away in he only boat that lived through the | storm. When Captain Roberts shouted | to the men below that the ship was lost and ordered them up to save them- selves if they could, Parker grabbed an ax and cut loose the last remaining boat on the Clallam. The lifeboat swamped, but Parker held on and he drifted about all the rest of the night, a lone passenger in | a boat that was level full of water, but | still did pot go down. He was picked up off Smiths Island about 5 o’clock this morning by the tug Sea Lion while he was drifting about helplessly in plain | sight of the lighthouse, but unable to attract the attention of the people on shore. He was weak from exposure and cold, but the men on the Sea Lion poured hot coffee into him, gave him | dry clothing and he arrived in Seattle on the steamer Dirigo not much, the worse for his experience, except that :his nerves were badly shaken by the | terrible sights he had witnessed. Parker was the last man to leave the sinking vessel except Pilot Doheney. | It was a scramble for life without hope | | of saving the sinking vessel when Par- | ker came up on deck. He says he cut | the boat loose with an ax and plunged told misery. I became weak, emaciated and very much run down.

After almost a lifetime of lahor—of study at bedsides and research in hospitals—I made this discovery. I found a way to treat. not the or- gans themselves, but the nerve the inside nerves—that operate these organs and give them power and strength and health. That discovery bas shown me the way to cure. It makes my offer possible. I know the remedy. I never can forget the study. all the research, the trials and tests that perfected it.

I don’t know | whether this is the proper signal in| such cases, but in any event it had no visible effect upon the Holyoke's crew. “The Sea Lion wasted no time when ance possible. Every member of the crew rendered heroic assistance and it | was largely due to her efforts that any of the survivors live ‘to tell the story of the wreck. “The Clallam’s pumps refused to work | from the start and she was kept afloat | only by the efforts of the passengers and crew who remained on board. Water rushed into her hold in a per- fect deluge and all we could do was to stave off what every one below deck realized would be the inevitable end. A great deal of the water poured in| through the deadlights and human ef- fort was powerless to bail out as fast | as it accumulated. All this time we were working in the belief that if the | boat began to sink we could get aboard | the Holyoke, and not until she falled | to come to our rescue did those on | board fully realize their peril. Then the rush for life preservers and life rafts began. Those who were 1t enough to get on the rafts were rescued in short order by the Sea Lion. Too much can- not be said In praise of this tug's offi- cers and crew for the assistance which they rendered.” KANSAS CITY MEN ON CONCERT TOUR AMONG THE =1'05T KANSAS CITY, Mo., Jan. 9.—Albert Kimmons Prince and Guy Daniels, who were lost in the wreck of the steamer Clallam, were Kansas City musicians who were making a concert world.

Prince himself was indicted, charged charge against him was dismissed and he was never tried. e R CHAMPAGNE BOTTLE FAILED TO BREAK ON CLALLAM'S BOW TACOMA, Wash., Jan. 9.—When the steamer Clallam w#s launched here last April the bottle of champagne was Taffete and 5 $5.00, $6.00 and $7.00.

PIERCE’S REMEDIES. | “T 1ave no mora nervous headaches and rest very well at night.” ¢ When a woman suffers from female | weakness and irregularity or other forms of womanly disease, the effect is cer- tain to be marked in her mervous sys- tem, the general effect being, as in Mrs. ‘Woodin’s case, “nervous headaches, rest- lessness at night” and a run-down condi- tion. It is simply common sense then which says if you cure the female weak- ness, irregularity, etc., you will cure the nervousness, sleeplessness and other con- lui)\:enoa of womanly disease, - .

He did not gant to talk about his expe- riences. e wanted to wait, he said, until the cause of the accident was known, before telling his story. Morris was a passenger for Victoria and did not know a single person on | the hoat. When the call for volunteers to help save the ship went forth, how- ever, he was one of the first to respond, and he baled water until his head swam. He says he worked below for full ten hours. He was in no hurry to leave the disabled ship, he says, for he had figured it out that ng a wooden vessel she would be hard to sink. The fact that every boat launched sank while yet in sight of those on the Clallam made it easier for those Wwho stayed to be contented, for it seemed like certain death to try to get away in any of the boats. Morris was on the Clallam when she sank. He says he cannot swim much, so he buckled on a life-preserver amd waited for a favorable chance to get clear of the ship. Suddenly she took an awful lurch and Morris slid into ' the water. He landed in the water close to a life raft and was picked up. Morris says the conduct of the pas- sengers and crew who stayed by the boat was admirable. There was no confusion, but every man worked as hard as he knew how and did exactly what he was told.

AT VICTORIA REFUSE > i A TO TAKE THE RISK SEATTLE, Wash., Jan. 9.—It was not the fault of the commanding officers of the Clallam nor the men in charge of the lifeboats that the passengers who fook to the boats were lost. When the lifeboats were lowered land was within: sight, yet the impotent Clallam was unable to even make headway against the gale. Prudence dictated that the passengers and crew needed | to navigate the boats be given the op- portunity of saving their lives by the lifeboats. That they failed to reach shore was due entirely to the fact that human strength was but a feeble pro- test against the fury of the elements. Had all the passengers and crew re- mained aboard it is undoubtedly true that most of them would have been lost when the boat turned over and gave up the struggle; others. stronger and bet- ter able to care for themselves drowned with the relief tugs standing by await- ing to take them aboard. The distress of the vessel had been noticed by watchers ashore. The steam- ship compahy owning the Clallam begged steamer and tugboat owners of Victoria to put off to relieve the vessel and hurried an American fleet of six tugs to the relief of the Clallam. But the Victoria boat owners refused to risk their craft in the gale. One steam- er, the Maud, started out of Victoria harbor to go to the Clallam’s rescue, but after striking the storm ‘vas com- pelled to put about and run to safety. Distress flags were flying from the Clallam from the time she became dis- abled. There was no boat in sight at the time the flags were hoisted, but it was with the chance that a passing vessel might sight her or those an shore be attracted by the Clallam’s fight against the odds of the sea that the signals were suspended. After the vessel had been fighting for two or three hours to keep headway or to preserve the safety of the pas- sengers 3 steam schooner passed astern of the Clallam, three miles distant. Aboard the Clallant the vessel could be made out plainly. To those who sighted the schooner it was apparent that the distress signals of the Clallam could have -been made out if the men aboard her glanced in that .direction. But they passed on up the straits with- out an answering signal or even a ADVEETISEMENTS.

It was impossible to make out the name of the passing vessel, but from the course she fol- lowed it was believed she had cleared from Bellingham Bay, possibly | San Francisco. Had this vessel stood by and given aid to the Clallam the disaster might have been avoided, or in & event the extent of the horror minimized. - Had word been carried at that time to Vie- toria or some other nearby nort there is a possibility that relief might have been sent earlier, though the refusal of Victoria steamers to go to the res- cue indicates that nothing could have been gained by an appeal in.that di- rection. Two- additional children are be- lieved to have been drowned. AN e VICTORIA MOURNS AND ALL THE FLAGS ARE AT HALF MAST VICTORIA, B. C., Jan. 9.—When the steamer Clallam broke down she was within half an hour or wharf here. The hacks and hotel buses were there awaiting her and then the news came that she had been seen to stop steaming off the point, with Vie- toria in plain view. She had broken down and became unmanageable. None | knew what had happened. At 3:30 p. m. she was seen to slew around and drifted away toward Dis- covery Island broadside to the wind. She was wallowing heavily, rolling from beam to beam in a big sea. Telephone messages were sent to her agent, E. E. Blackwood, who made great efforts to secure a tug to assist her. Failing, owing to the absence of available tugs and the fact that all steamers in port were unable to get up steam in less than five hours, he wired to Port Townsend and the Holyoke and Sea Lion were dispatched. The steamer Iroquots went from Sydney and searched for hours without seeing any- thing of her and in the dark none knew what had befallen the steamer. Then came the.news of the disaster and Vie- toria is sorrow stricken. Flags are at half mast and crowds are thronging the newspaper and tele- graph offices. Many Victorians are among the Jost. N. P.
