I'lie Lusitania was only two miles ��� '"in Cape Town when she ran ������a ihe rock whieh has claimed more than one steamer and many nailing ships. Steaming at full speed she piled herself up completely driving far up on the reef j ind sticking firm. Signals for Aid Seen Rockets were sent up and guns fired for aid. Heavy surf dashing mi the rocks swepi right over the wreck. Women and children who li.ul rushed up, scanlilv clad, from below when the vessel struck, suffered greatly from cold and exposure. Efforts were made to lower the boats and take the passengers off, but the first boats launched swamped and capsized in the heavy surf and eight passengers were lost in spile of heroic efforts to save them. Only the grip the wreck had of the rock prevented her from foundering. Then the sound of an answering gun was heard and the British battleship Forte came steaming up at full speed. Bluejackets to the Rescue Standing by the rock as near as possible with safely the Forte lowered lifeboats, and the bluejackets at tremendous risk got the crew and passengers of the Lusitania transferred without loss of life. 1,'hey were conveyed to Cape Town where they were landed. No effects could be saved, and as the wreck occurred at night the passengers have lost all iheir valuables. Efforts will be made to save the mails, but il is feared that the I usilauia will he a total wreck.

A se���ion of the Legislature has -ime been held. Imt the grievances have mn lieen remedied. Instead, an amendment to the Coal Act waa brought in limiting the coal licensees' rights to the amount of ihe surface of the land required for mining operations. But the law waa not made retroactive. And the reserve i- already blanketed. Writing at thc time from Victoria to an elector about thc matter Mr. M.111-011 said: "I think that the best course to pursue is not to give the matter of the amendment to the Act undue publicity."
