Have You Property?
Everybody has .some property.
Those who do not take good care
of it, usually lose it. The best
properly of everybody is his
health. If he does not neglect the
same and if he quickly repairs
occasional indisposition, his pros
pects for a long and happy life
are very good. The first symp
tom of an indisposition is usual
ly parliau or total loss of ap
petite and of strength and energy,
some headache, bad taste in the
mouth, coated tongue, constipa
tion. In such cases use at once
Triner's American Elixir of Bit
ter Wine, which wlil thoroughly
clean out the digestive ' system,
strengthen it and stimulate to its
regular work. It is very good for
the stomach, for the liver and for
,ne intestines, fro rheumatic and

MESSAGE FROM THE CHESTER.
Says List of Cabin Passengers Sent

List Yet te Come 115 First and 167
Second Cabin Passengers Lost.
; Be) oiid even the mystery of how
1 .the mammoth steamer Titanic met)
" Its fate another mystery, evolved'
. by the events of .ie last three ', ',
J days, forced Itself to the front. 1
Although the rescue ship Carpal!
Tthta was within the tone of wire-j
1 icss communication ana doiu , ,
'. ) shore stations and relaying ships '
were able to obtain from It long! !
', ! lists of survivors among the steer-J
age passengers and to send and,
ifron and to private individuals,!
not a word of matter descriptive T
of the manner In which the steam- X
er received its deathblow, or how J
(those on hoard the doomed liner ,
comported themselves In the face'
of impending doom reached the'
shore. .
The roll of the saved from the Ti
tanic disaster seems complete.
Practically every attending circum
stance In the transmission of news)
from the Carpathia goes to show that
only 328 of the 610 cabin passengers
of the Titanic are safe on the rescu
ship.
The 282 cabin passengers whoa
turned to despairing onea when th
sent ashore by wireless must prob
ably be conceded as among the 1,312
lives which the collision of the mam
moth new steamer with an iceberg oflt
the Newfoundland banks Is believed to
hare taken.
Thousands of hopeful hearts wer
turned to despairing ones when thi
United States scout cruiser Chester
wirelessed ashore that she had been
In communication with the Carpathia
and had asked repeatedly for the full
list of the first and second cabin sur
vivors and that the rescue ship r
forUd that all the names had already
ten seat ashore. The remainder of
840 persons saved were passengers
in the steerage or members of th
crew.
. From the Carpathia, which Is ex
peeled to reach the entrance of tba
harbor by 8 o'clock tonight, came a
new report as to the number of sur
-Ivors on board.
Hope for Wireless Mistakes.
The fact that one new name cam
through in a private message from tha
Carpathia was the basis of what was a
desire more than a hope that thera
were slips enough In her wireless llsta
lo soeount for a few at least of thoaa
still unaccounted for. At the beat
however, It appeared that it could only
be an occasional one whose safety ba4
been reported through some error of
compilation on the liner or of wireless
transmission.
List of 8aved Grows Less.
Through the Cunarder Franconla,
which established wireless communi
cation with the rescue ship, came a
message which included this state
ment: "She hag a total of 705 survlvora
aboard."
The previous statement from tha
Carpathia had been that she carried
868 survivors. It may be that the re
port received through the Franconla
Included a count of rescued passen
gers only, disregarding the 100 o
more members of the crew who must
have been In the boats which the Car
pathla picked up.
Communication was being had with
the Carpathia through both the scout
cruiser and the shore wireless sta
tion at fllasconsett. Through the Ches
ter there came slowly the names of
saved passengers from the third cabin
of the Titanic. The very sending of
these could but help confirm the fate
ful belief that there were no more
names of first and second cabin pas
sengers to send. And thus the namr
of well known men such as John Jacob
Aitor, William T. Stead, Isldor Straus
and others of the now familiar list of
otables could have been omitted la
the transmission of names. Thrt
these men have gone down with the
ship there remained hardly a doubt.
Authorities on conditions off the banks
agreed that rescues of passengers not
taken from the liner by the boats
would have hud to be made speedily,
as exposure and exhaustion would
quickly sap the life of human beings
forced to resort to any other means
than boats of keeping afloat.
Bodies Will Remain Down.
Haltltnore, April 18. "The bodies
of the victims of the Titanic are at the
iottom of the deep, never to leave It,"
declared Professor Robert W. Wool of
the chair of experimental physics of
John-Hopkins university.
"It Is altogether Improbablo that any
of the corpses ever return to the sur
face as Is the case with bodies
drowned In shallow water. At the
depth of two miles the pressure of the
water Is something like 6,000 pounds
to tho square inch, which Is far too
great to be overcome by buoyancy or
dinarily given drowned bodies by tb
gases generated la time."
