Créw of Turret Chie Chief Lost Warm Friends in Terrible Disaster on Upper Lakes--Will Never Forget Battle They Had in Awful Storm. The marine investigation which was held in Kingston, on Friday al- ternoon, had a touch of sadness, | Although "the entire crew of the | steamer Turret Chief, under inves tigation, escaped in the terrible gale which caused such alm awful toll ot death, every officer lost one or more friends, and as they gave their evi dence before the commission, they could mot keep from thinking about the good men who went down with their ships, and at the same (ime, wonder how they had managed to escape a similar fate. It was pla' to be seen that each witness apvet ed to be carrying a heg¥y load, cud although the evidence was given promptly and very openly, it gave one the impression that the recall: ing of the disaster gave pain to the strong, able-bodied men who had scores of times, made the trip up and down the great lakes, with- out mishap. And all the while these seamen were modest, Although the storm was regarded by everyone as one of the worst ever experienced,, not one witness called, showed any desire to comment on the character of the storm, When pressed for an an- ewer, they admitted it was the worst gale they had ever experienced, but were not incEmed towards publish- ing this fact in glaring headlines, as it were. They gave the impres- dion that they were true sailors, both in quiet and troublesome times --that storms must be encountered, and on gitch occasions, they musi be ready for them. One witness, while admitting that the storm was one of the worst he had ever em- countered, stated that he had been out in the lake in evem a worse gale, and those who Wetened to his evidence, found it hard to conceive of anything, which could have been regarded as more serious. The story of the stramding of the steamer Turret Chief has been told, to the public in general amd will, perhaps, be forgoften by the read- ers of the story in the course of a yery short time, but the members ot the crew will remember it to the day of their death, PROTEGT THE HEART FROM RHEUMATSH Rheuma Purifies Blood and Throws off Catiphicusimg Dis- Weakening ry vy the 'blood tissues by continued attacks of Rheumatism affects the heart and produces com- plications whieh result fatally.

Registrar Chown After the Cabmen For Breaking Trees--Aeschylian Society's Social Event on Friday Fyening. The medicals are still anxious for a students' theatre night and every effort is being made to arrange with the manage- ment of the Grand Opera House to al- low them to hold it on December 11th at the comic opera, "Marriette" It is rather dubious whether such arrange- ments can be made, but the local man- ager is endeavoring to secure the head- manager's consent and also that of the advance agent of the company. The refreshment committee for the medical dinner had considered getting tenders for catering to the dinner from outside caterers as well as local. It seems that science, which have given their contract to Cole's, of Toronto, wished medicine to join them, and give this caterer theirs: but Mr. Reid, of Kingston, provided such an excellent menu at a comparatively much lower cost than that of the Toronto man, the refreshment committee decided to give its contract to Mr, Reid, who has pro- vided the fare for the last couple of vears with satisfaction. The RCH. A. band has been engaged to provide the music. Some members of the final year in medicine have not yet digested the idea that their year dees not alone possess the privilege of nominating the medical candidate for the office of nresident of the Alma Mater Society, and at the | meeting of the Aesculapian society, Fri- day afternoon, an attempt was made to reconstruct the constitution so that the final year in the future should have this monopoly, but so many spoke ~~ainst the propasition that a motion to that effect was lost. The Medical dance proved a success ancially, and the final report of the pa shows a balance of $13, the expenses amounting to $348. The Var- sity Iepresentitive, who was present at the dance, said words of his excellent entertainment 'and the Varsity Medical socitty announces its dance to be on December 17th, at which Queen's will be Fepresented. G. Y. Chewn is after the scalps of the cabmen who -did so much damage to trees, fences and shrubbery beside the lawns, at the medical dance, so has in- timated to the committee that it shall pay the damage thus occurred which amount to $10. Medicine '15 is the winner of the Dean Connell trophy for rugbv football in medicine. It was closely run bv Medi- cine 'l7 for first place, but came out best by a few points. The dean will present the trophy to the winners at the next meeting of the Aesculapian Society and the athletic committee will have a shield engraved with the year on it attached to the trophy. The Medical athletic committee will meet some time before Monday with the athletic committees of thé other facul- ties to arrange with them for the inter- faculty rughy games, in which Medicine was so successful last year, and a sche- dule will be drawn up. Mr. Davidson, of the first year, has been added to this committee. The medical students, although lacking the fair essentials for dancing in their building, have decided to ask the house committee to remove the first seats in lecture room No. 1, so that stag dances may be held between classes. From the appearance of these dances they do not come under the sanction of the AMS B. McLeod, business manager of the Jonrnal, addressed the medical students concerning subscriptions for the Journal It is expected a ready response will meet the appeal. Business transacted hy the Aesculapian soeiety at their regular meeting Friday afternoon consisted in receiving the au- ditors' report in favor of last year's ac- counts, in moving that the penalties. de- cided on, additional to previous pro- vision, be added to the list that is being publis hed. and in appointing a commit- tee to revise the constitution, consisting of Messrs.
