28 in a sinking condition in

in command of Captain J. D
Jenkins and sailed from West
Bay N. S. June 23 with a
cargo of seals for Barry Wales
On June 27 she ran into an ice-
berg and was forced to put
into the St. Johnas N. F. for
repairs.
The Furlor again put to see
July 22. On July 25 a strong
southerly gale sprung up and
the ship soon sprung a leak.
On the morning of July 27 a
fire was started on the deck of
the steamer to attrack ..the at-
teiition of any passing vessel
and soon the Furlor was in
flames. The crew then put off
on the boats which were kept
near the vessel for forty eight
hours when the Sagamore

It is the only lamp burning kerosene oil whicH will
maintain a Same of uniform candle power until the oil is en-
tirely exhausted. In other lampsy as the oil is consumed the
candle power of the flame decreases. Hitchcock Lamp is 26'
candle power by photometric test. Any good grade of kerosene
can be used in it; and it is the only artificial light which gfyes5
to tinted fabrics their proper color at nightf neither gas or
electric light will do this.
By way of comparison we will say the. regular central
draft kerosene (Rochester) lamp with a wick 3 inches irr cir-
cumference will give about 28 candle pover with a rorfsump-
tion of oil costing S 1-4 cents for ia hours and producing aii
immense amount of heat. The
becomes low while the Improved Hitchcock is uniform3 till all
the oil is used and the cost for 10 hours burning will not exr
ceed 3 cents Besides- there will be Utile or' no heat Burning
both- lamps for 5 hours per day for o'n'e year a saving of about
$f.ox will be made in the cost of oil in lavor of tKe HifchcbcK
