COVEHEAD
Appropriate and Successiul Celebration ol the
Anniversary ol the Coming oi First Presbyte-
rian Minister to That Congregation-Large
Attendance and Attractive Program.
__,_.__._--1-°'1*ii'-*
The manner in which the centenary of
the arrival of the first Presbyterian minis-
ter In Prince Edward Island was celebrat-_
ed at Covehead yesterday was most
creditable to all vsho were in any way
connected with the function.
It will be one hundred years ago, this
autumn, since the Rev. Peter Gordon was
placed in charge of the congregations of
St. Peters, Covehead and Fortune.
Yesterday those who comprise the
people of' those congregations, many cf
litem descendants uf Mr. Gordotrs parish- ,,
loncrs united to honor the memory of him f
who was the iirst to teach their faith on
Prince Edward Island.
The attendance was large, those who
attended being drawn to the scene
through an earnest ,desire to show their
interest in the occasion, and the splen-
nidlynrrangcd and appropriate program
was thoroughly appreciated by all.
A number of eloquent addresses were
made and valuable historical data was
furnished by the speakers of the day wh
acquitted themselves with distinctlo
and were listened to with the kneencst
interest.
’ His Honor Lieut Governor MacKinnon,
presided and delivered the opening
address in the morning. He contrasted
the presentcondltlan of Prince Edward
Island with what it was a hundred years
ago. The present was a time oi great
prosperity on the Island and he adviycti
young men to stayin this good country
which had plenty of splendid resources
wh ich only needed full development.
A prominent feature of the day was the
unveiling of tablets to the memory of
iievs. Peter Gordon, Robert Douglas and
James Allan, formerly pastors of Cove-
head Church.
One of the tablets was unveiled by Dr.
0
Il
Gordon; that to Rev. Mr. Douglas was un-
veiled hy Rev. Dr. Falconer; and the
tablet to Rev. Mr. Allan was unveiled by
Lieul. Governor McKinnon.
Those who delivered addresses included
Ras George Miller of Brookfield, Rev W,
H. Spencer, Rev. T. F. Fullerton, Rev Dr
Falconer, Moderator of the Presbyterian
General Assembly, Lieutenant (iovenor
liIcKinnon,James Mcii. Baxter. M. D. of
Chatham, N. B agrandson of Rev. Peter
Gordon, and others.
The visits and labors of Rev. Dr.McGrcg-
or a Presbyterian missionary who visited
Prince E iward Island at intervals during
the early days of the last century fcrunnl
the basis of an excellent, and eloquent
eulogy bylbis great grandson, Rev.Geor, e
Millar. Those who have read the mem-
ories of thc grand man who formed the
subject of Mr. Millar's address will not
need to be told that his words were
listened to with plca~u re and that his
topic was one deserving of the beat
cratory. Many interesting incidents
were recorded of the early missionary
travels, and the condition of this province
at that early day was graphically des-
cribed.
The theme of the Rev. W. H. Spenocr's
discourse was Rev. Peter Gordon, his sac-
eessors, and the elders for 100 years inthe

and recited many events of interest:

and Now, and in its scope compared the
advanccmnnt that has been made in ln-
vcntion and science in the past 100 years,
rcferring particularly to the great im-
provements in electricity and the changes
wrought in the customs of the people.

style by thc ladies. Therewas an attend-
ance far exceeding all expectation; it was
estimated that- there were 1500 people on
the grounds. The results financially
were such as to give the utmost satisfaot~
_ion.

Lonnotv, Aug., 21~The accident to the

example of the good old adage about an ill

and the United States.
Dover detectives discovered nine young
German girls in charge of a woman notor-
iocs for trafllc in girls. This woman had
recently been expelled from England and
evldcptly transfered her business to the
United States. She was arrested and dc-
ported. The girls were sont thankfully
back to their homes lu Germany. The
stories told by them to the police, as well
as photographs of the woman, have been
sent to the police ot America.

is caused by an inflamed condition of the

_1_____ »
llIc.\"rn1-;.\l., August 21-Details of the
accident to il. M. Dominion vvhilc on her
way from Ilallfax have been divulged. It
was about 8,30 Thursday last that the
llominion stranded off Souris, Prince
Edward Island. The navigating officer
mistook thcllght which proved to have
been caused by a bush fire for one of thc
Souris rangellghts. The ship struck two
obstacles, over which silo passed and
grounded on the third. The shocks were
so heavy that Mrs. Kingstnlll, the cay-
tain’s wife, whobad boarded the ship nt
Halifax, was prustrated and had to be
attended by the ship's doctor.
The captain immediately tool: the
precaution of piping all hands on
deck, the men with heavy bags con
taining their kits. For double pur-
pose of avoiding a panic and of a.~~
sisting thc ship oil`, the Domlnionk
band was ordered to playa a jig and
all hands danced to it the effect
being to jig the vessel off thc rock
with the assistance of her engines.
As some of the fore compartments
were making water thc ship'a pump>
were at once set nt work,nnd it was found
that even when ilonwd they were able to
keep well ahead ofthe leakage, which it
is reported is at the rate uf 60,000 gallons
an hour. An attempt was made to send
down divers, but this was found to be lm-
`possibie, owlng to the tide. Most of the
provisions on board wercidestroyed by salt.

until the shipi-4 arrival here.
Nothing was reported of the disaster
until the ntimiraity was notified and the

asit was prctty dark he would run
