Hara, in ballast from Point du Chanel was beating up towards the light in' Mnlpequo harbor about 4.30 o'clock' on Saturday afternoon' and was in the: act of "coming about” a sudden Bust of wind filled her sails, com-I pletely capsizing the craft. The hatches being off the ve'ssei instantly' filled and went down. I S0 suddenly did the accident occur that the crew of the vessel consist-’ ing or three men had not time to| launch the boat and all went to their, death. The victims are: Captain Charles Dunn, of Murray River, who` commanded the vessel; 'Mate Lanni-f gan, whose' address' has not been as- certained but is believed to have been' n P. ‘E. Islander and the steward, Al-‘ bert Stewtrrt, of Grand River, Lot 14.'
The 0'iiara was' owned by Mr. R.,
J. McNeill of Tyne' Valley, and was n. vessel of seventy-nine tons.. She' was built in 1886 in Essex, Mass., 'and' was purchased two years ago by Mr.' McNeill for $1,600. 'l‘hough~an oldi vessel she was in good repair and barring accidents looked as if she' would be able to make- trips for many more years. In addition to sails she was' equipped with a gas-‘ oline engine. | The schooner had just finished
discharging a cargo of potatoes at Point du Chene and had returned in ballast to take another cargo of them to the same port. .
A strong northwest gale of wind
was blowing-at. the time of the disast-
\‘. ich occurred about a mile from the shore. Several pe'opie on the land witnessed the ac'cident, but so s-uddendy did the vessel go down that 'there was no time to render an'y assistance.
The seas continued to roll heavily
all dai’ Sunday and by' seven o’clock that evening the wreck was driven down channel until it was force'd against what is known as the Cork Reef, with the result that the vessel was battered to pieces.
Up to last night no sign of any
bod-ies was. to be seen. The tragedy is deeply regretted. ,
Captain Dunn was»n,bout 45 yenrg
of age and unmarried.
The cook, Albert Stewart, was mar-
ried, and leaves a family' to mourn.
No`lni'om1ntlon in regard to the
mate, Mr. Lannlgan, is available, so far.
§l‘he sum of $250 belonging to Capt.
Dunn and some valuable papers' in regard t.o foxes, were lost with the vessel.
The Marine Oiilce was communicat-
ed with on Sunday afternoon in re- gard to the accident and steps were taken to get ln' touch with the Brant which was somcwllere' on her way back t`rom Malpeque. As s-oon as it was found that sho was in George- town harbor she was ordered to coal and proceed at once to the scene of the wreck. . The steamer was obliged to come to Charlottetown to
coal, and by that time it was learned that the vessel had gone to pieces.

‘° .___-.1 `
The special service in the Baptist Church last night was one of marked |» spiritual power. Rev. C. R. Freeman took for his text. G°d's great love for the world and his great gift ‘to the world, as found in John' 3: 16: “For God'so loved the world that He gave His only 'begotten Son. that whoso-i ever believeth on Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” '
The speaker said that this was' one
of the most familiar passages in the word of God. and yet was onoof the
least underitoodand the most ne- glected. T is great message which came ringing down through the' ages, intended for all people and which means
men how to live, teach them the' blessedness of service and sacrifice. Yet great as this love of God is and great as was the sacrifice' of Jesus., it availeth nothing unless man' does' his part. Man must believe, that this great gift and sacrifice was for him personality, and that through the death of Jesus eternal life was made possible for every, one that believeth on Him. _
At the close of this ve-ry impressive
service, several persons' unanifeted their desire to accept Jesus as 'their Saviour an'd to follow Him. '
Meetings will be held each evening
this week at 7.30. A cordial invita- tion is extended to all.

(Special to tile Guardian.)
LONDON, Nov. 14.-Attacking on a
front nearly five miles on both sides of the Ancrc river in the mist of dark- ness early this morning the British made number breach in the original German front lines. They captured the strongly fortified villages of Beau- mont and Hamel in the St. Pierre di- vision and gained new ground which already has reached a depth of more than 3, mllc' at one point, Two thou- sand prisoners already have been tn- ken to Cages. Severe fighting con- tinues before Iieancourt Sur-Allure on the- north bank of thc- river on high ground about midway between Scrrc. and Benucourt~Sur-Ancre. We:-rt of thc road linking thcso villages noi- withstnndlng the long prevailing had weather with an almost continuous rain storm. good progress was made. South of the Arycre the British linc- swept in a northeasterdly direction to the river bank opposite Bcaucourt, cutting off thc- remaining fragment of German positions around St. Pelrre Division while simultaneously Beau- mont nnd llnmel was attacked froln the opposite bank. All the positions of the Germans north of the Ancre are of exceptional strength. Beau- `mont and Hamel equalling Thiepval in the extent of the security of its la- byrinth of dugouts., while the Gorman engineers have been laboring con- stantly for more than two years to make the defences of which this was an important part lmpregnabie_ There' was a profusion of connected machine guns and redoubts, elaborate tele- phone and electric' systems, great caves capable of sheltering companies of infantry. Prisoners say it was believed that the Beaumont and Ha- mel could not be- taken by the Bri- tish. '
A bulletin issued at midnight from
headquarters in France reads: “We attacked this morning astride the An- cre and' have succeeded in penetra- ting the German defense on a front of live miles. The strongly fortified villages of the St. Pie-rre division have fallen into our hands. The nt- tack was delivered- before daylight in a thick mist. Severe losses have
be-en inflicted on the enemy, over
our collecting stations already and more are coming in. Fighting con- tinues. The front which has been captured north of the Ancre consists of the German original front line de- fences of an exceptionally strong na- ture. -

LONDON, Nov. 14- Once' again
thc Gorman line in France has been hard hit. Starting an offensive run'- ning from the southern bank oi' the Ancre River northward over -a front. of about five miles from St. iiierrc division, io north of Serrc the Brit- ish captured the towns oi' Beaumont, and llztinel, in thg St. Pierre division and the first and second line trenche's at various points. Between three and four thousand were made prison- ers in the attacks. The Germans ap- parently oifered slight resistance to their adversaries although their positions' were extremely strong. A gain to a depth of one mile- maximum over a tive onlie front was made by the British.
Ha-rd lighting continues to the north
of the Serre'. The new drive probably has as its' objective the straightening out of the British line from the re- giontof Sars across the Ancre,, push- ing forward by the British left wing toward Achiet Le Pe'tit Junction, the point of the Arras-Bapaume and Arras' Mcaument railroads.
Except in the » Roumanian and
Macedonian theatre there has been no fighting of importance.
In' Dobrudja, according -to Petrograd
advicesreceived by wireless' in Rome, the troops of Field Marshall Von Mac- kenzen are stiil.~-in-retreat. The Rus- sians have crossed' the Danube from the wetern bank and reache'd two points' south of .Tchsrnada on' the eastern bank.
Berlin asserts, however, that the

3,300 prisoners have passed through'
the villlage of Iven to northeast of Polog and forced their antagonists to fall back. About two hundred men were taken prisoners in this fighting and a large' number of guns taken, also ammunition, captured. On the Aus't'ro-Italian front quiet prevailed. An aerial bombardment of Weodva kille'd at Least, _sixty persons, includ- ing, women, and children, says a Rome despatch. A violent artillery duel is still in progress' in Naray Uvka region of Galicia. The Russians have repelled strong Austro-German attacks in the Ca.rpathlans'.

ST. JOHN, 'Nov. 1~i`»-General Sir
Sam Hughes has resigned the port- folio of Militia and Defense in re- sponse to a request of the Prime Minister sent to him on Friday. He handed his resignation to Sir Robert today. His successor 'has not yet been appointed.
It may be some time before' the

for Militia and Defence. The Premier will be Acting Minister. .
General Hughes was asked if he
had any comment to make. l-ie re- plied that he had none at present:
Sir Robert would say all_._tb{r,e_,\vus. to be said; that probably w en Par- liament meets there would 'be ftirthdr facts to lay before the housje. _ The reason for the dismissal ofthp mn- lster of Militia is an accumulation of disobedience and other things, ,,For a lung --time the relations -between iliin und the Government have been very strained.

City Council was held last evening, Mayor Brown presiding and every member of the Council being in atten-
A communication was read from the

This communication was ordered to

Another was from the Charlotte-
town Can Company, Ltd., asking for exemption from water and civic tax- es. This request was backed up by a delegation consisting of Messrs. John Agnew, R. N. Cox and George H. Toombs.
Consideration was promised. The subject of street lighting ro
ceived some attention. Complaint was made of the poor quality of the light in many places and it was claim- ed that many of the lamps. are not ilt at night. At the request of one of the Councillors Mr. Coleman was summoned by telephone to give some explanation regarding these matters.
Mr. Coleman said the trouble was
that it is impossible to get glass to repair the lamps 'as an instance inner globes ordered in May last only ar- rived a few weeks ago. -It ls the in- tention to change all the lights next yea-r and any suggestions offered would be gladly considered.
The following resolution was moved
by Coun.. Wright seconded by Coun. Miller!
"Inasmuch as there has not been a
valuation of the civic property for some years, and whereas such valua- tion is most desirable in the interest of the City and debenture holders. Therefore resolved: That a com- mittee composed of the chairmen of the various departments be authoriz- ed to obtain an equitable valuation of all property under their control and report to this Council at next regular meeting.
