1600 SOULS PERISHED
WHEN THE TITANIC SUNK WITH
BAND PLAYING "NEARER Mf
GOD TO THEE."
DEEDS OF HEROISI
Displayed by the Men .and Women.
Women and Children First, RigMiy
Enforced. Greatest Disaster of ttte
Age.
The arrival of the steamer C&rix
thia which rescued a number of the
passengers from the Titanic increas
ed, instead of decreasing, the number
of those who lost their lives as a re
sult of the sinking of the Titanic. A
total of 1,595 people went down with
the ship and six of those rescued died
as a result of the exposure. The wire
less operator of the Titanic, one of
the heroes, died after being rescued.
Many women refused to leave their
husbands among the number being
Mrs. Isadore Strauss. John Jacob As
' tor, the multi-millionaire, died like a
hero and gave up his seat in a life
boat to a woman, and went down with
the ship. >Major Archie Butte, of Au
gusta, the President's Military aide,
went down with {he ship and was one
that afded in keeping the ttren ttoiri
the lifeboats. The sea rule of women
and children first, in case of accidents
was rigidly enforced and not a man
\Vas allowed on the lifebbats until all
the women and children were safe.
The band on the Titanic was heard
flaying "Nearer My God to Thee" a*
the big ship went to the bottom.
The heroism and bravery displayed
-/ by the crew, the men and women on
the ship was most remarkably there
seems to have been no panfc ffnrf the
men, in most cases, Were kept irorm
the lifeboats with very little troutffe.
The following is the account, in de
tail, given by the daily papers.
N?w Tort, April ISf.?Bearing the
800 survivors?mostly women and
children?of the sunke? liner Titanic, j
the steamship Cir^alhia of (be fcfti?-]
ard line, reached her dock here at $1
> o'clock Thursday night I
A great crowd was gathered at the
Cufcard pier as the Catpathia atrivfed,
but was kept back by at titfong forc?
of policemen. No one was allowed on
the ship except close friends and rela
tives of the survivors.
With the arrival of the Carpathia It
was possible for the to learn,
for the first time, the story of the
final horron on the decks 6? the Ti
tanic after she crushed into the ice
berg and began to sink.
According to the iriifvfvbrs, the Ti
tanic was almost torn to pieces by
vthe impact and at once began to Ket
tle by the head.
The lifeboats *ere nidinfed and
were loaded with womeri and children.
Fsom the very first the cry was "save
the women and chilflr&n."
The lifeboats fcut off hastily and
they had not gone far before the Ti
tanic went down, carrying with hef
over 1,300 men, who had remained for
certain death in order that the tiro
men and children might fescape.
Overcome by ftorror of Scene
Necessarily the accounts Of the sur
vivors last night were meager, as
scores of them were ill, having been
overcome by th? horror Of the sinking
bt the ship and by the sufferings en
dured before being picked up by the
v>m |iaiuia.
It was bitter cold when the life
boats left the sinking Titanic and the
survivors were almbst frozen when
picked up hours later bf the Carpa
thian
Although the tftti-vlvort &4r {he "ti
tanic go down,many of them ere still
hopeful when they reached New York
that loved ones on tbe ship had in
some way managed to he saved.
In all the world thfere "** no more
I*
miserable human beings than those
that landed from the Carpatbla.
They tore alive, but they had seen
their loved ones plunge to death be
neath the icy waters of the north At
lantic.
Heads Bared !fi ?r*se>& bf tN>e
Although an immense throng had
gathered at the pier oild irks kfcpt
back by the stringent jSollcS feguid
tlons, there was almost the silence
of the grave as the survivors of the
rit iniMkni HmkH
greaiem sea ua&guj ui iuvuv.u
began to land from the Cirpathla.i'hfe
only sounds were the occasional gobs
uttered by the women survivors as
they came down from the Bhip lean
ing on friends of relative!.
As the survivors passed the men
in the great crowd of spectators bar
red their heads and there was hardly
a dry eye. ,
Astor and Other Notables Gone
Colonel John Jacob Astor, Isador
Strauss,Benjamin Guggenheim,George
D. Widener,Major Arichbald Butt,mil
itary aide to President Taft; kenry
B. Harris, the theatrical manager, and
Charles M. Hays, president df the
Grand Trunk Railway were all lost
E. Z. Taylor of Philadelphia, one of
the survivors jumped into the sea just
three minutes before the boat sank.
He told a graphic story as he came
from the Carnathla.
"I waa eatink when the boat itruck
the iceberg," he said. "There wag an
awful shock that made the boat
tremble from stem to stern. I did
not realize for some time what had
happened. No one seemed to know
the extent of the accident We
were told that an Iceberg had been
struck by the ship. I felt the boat
rise and it seemed to me that she feas
riding dver.the Ice. I ran otlt 6n
deck and there t con Id sfee lfcfc. It
. was a veritable aba of lie afed the
boat was rocking over it, I should
say that parts of the iceberg were
eighty feet high, but It had been
broken into sections probably by our
sbip.
"I jumped into the ocean and was
picked dp by one of the boats. I
never expected to see land again. I
waited on board the boat until the
light went out. It seemed to me
that the discipline on board was
wonderful."
Col. Archibald Oracle, U. S. A., the
last man saved, went down with tbe
/esBel but was piciea up. xie wa?
j m?t latft Algfet by his daughter, $hot
ha'd Arrived from Washington Unit
his son-in-law, Paul H. Fabrlcus.
Col. Gracie told a remarkable story
ot peftonaf hardship and denied em
phitlcall'y the reports that there had
been any panic on board. He praised
;Q the highest terms the behavior of
both the passengers and crew and paid
a high tribute to the heroism of the
women passengers.
Remained to Die With Husband
"Mrs. Isador Strauss" he said,"went
co her death because s&e Would hot

pleaded with her t6 tai'e hir pl&e
in the boat she steadfastly refused
:ind when the ship settled at the head
the two were engulfed In the wave
that swept her."
Col. Oracle told of how he was driv
en to the topmost deck when the ship
settled and was the sole survivor
after the wave that swept her just
before her final plunge had passed.
"I jumped with the wave," said he,
"just & I often havi jumped With
the breakers' at seashore. By
great good fortune I managed to
grasp the brass rrflftrig on tie diet
above, and I hung on by might and

Col. Grace denied with empssis that

that onlj once tfas a revolver dis

BALD HEADS NOT WANTED.
Baldness is Too Generally Considered a
Stgn of Advanced Age.
A bald-headed person does not have an
equal chance -with one blessed with a
healthy head of hair, because baldness is
too generally accepted as an indication of
age. Many large corporations haveestab
lished an age limit, and refuse to take men
jver 35 years of age as new employees.
Probably 65 per cent, of bald-headed
people may regain a good head of healthy
hair if they will follow our advice and ac
cept our offer. We have a remedy that we
positively guarantee to grow hair on any
bead, unless the roots of the hair are en
tirely dead, their follicles closed, and the
scalp has become glazed and shiny. We
want people to try this remedy at our
risk, with the distinct understanding that
unless it does exactly what we claim it
will, and gives satisfaction in every re
spect, we shall make no charge for the
remedy used during the trial. *
We know exactly what we are talking
about, and with this offer back of our
statements no one should scoff, doubt our
word, or hesitate to put our remedy to an
actual test.
We-want every one in Abbeville who is
from nnv scaln or hair tronble.
dandruff, falling hair, or baldness to try
our Rexall "93" Hair Tonic. We want
th'-m to use it regularly?say until three
bottles have been used?and if it does not
eradicate dandruff, cleanse and refresh the
scalp, tighten the hair in its roots, and
grow new hair, we will return every cent
paid us for the remedy for the mere ask
ing. There is no formality expected, and
we exact no obligation from the user
whatever.
We are established right here in Abbe
ville, and make this offer with a full under
standing that our business success entire
ly depends upon the sort of treatment we
accord to our customers, and we would not
dare make the above offer unless we were
positively certain that we could substan
tiate it in every particular.' Remember,
you can obtain Rexall Remedies in this
community only at our store?The Itexall

Testimony of Abbeville Citizens.
When an Abbeville citizen comes to
the front, telling his friendw ami neigh
bors of his experience, you can rely on
his sinceri'y. Th^ statements of peo
ple residing in faraway places do not
command your confidence. Home en
dorsement is tlie kind that backs
Doan's Kidney Pills. Such testimony
is convincing. Investigation proves
it true. Below is a statement of an
Abbeville resident. No stronger proof
of merit can be had.
H. C. Strickland, blacksmith, Tan
yard St., Abbeville, S. (J., t-ayn : "I
suffered from pains in my back and
the passages of the kidnpy secretions
were irregular. Doan's Kidney Pills,
which I got at P. B. Speed's Drug
Store, brought me relief and I am
therefore, pitted to recommend
them.,"
If your back aches?if your kidneys
bother you, don't simply ask for a kid

pleasant mixture of caution and wag
gery. Once while in the synagogue
his neighbor suddenly plucked him by
the sleeve and whispered hoarsely, "I
have come away this morning without

A little boy out in Stockton, accord- I
Ing to the Rooks County Record, said
to his mother the other day: "Ma, am

went out in the coal shed and kicked
the cat through the roof.?Kansas City
