WiNNiPEff, Man., Nov. 9. â€" The first known of the disaster" was when the steamer Athabasca of the same line arrived at Port Arthur late this even- ing with the rescued, consisting of thirteen sailors and two passengers. The Athabasca, which left Owen Sound two days after the Algema. 3ame upon the wreck at Isle Boyal, and found those saved in a perishing condition. The wreck had been dashed by the wayes against the rocks, and had finally beaten against the shoie of the island. The boat con- taining the rescued was washed over â- several times, but righted again while the' men clung to her sides. They succeeded in reaching land almost dead from exposure and exhaustion. The storm continued to rage fariouslv all night, long. They remained on "the beach watching the wreck beating the rock bound island arid seeing the dead bodies dashed in the surf against the shores. The Athabasca, set sail for Port Arthur, where she arrived about 7 this evening. The Algoma was a splendid Clyde steamer lighted by electricity, Gross tonnage 1,780, length 270 feet, breadth 38 feet. The furnishings were luxurious, equal to the finest tjcean steamers. The vessel cost $460,000 and is understood to have been insured for $800,000. It was one of the three steamere, Albtrta, Athabasca, and Algoma, purchased' two years ago by the Canadian Pacific railway for the lake traffic, sirice which time it has been plying steadily between Owen Sound and Port Arthur.

Weather unfavorable, as we may expect at this season of the year. Boads very bad, almost impossible to get around. Business very good considering the very low prices for grain. The Gospel Army of Dandalk is expected to be here tiiis week to held a series of revival meetings. We are looking for a rich harvest, and trust we shall not be disappointed. Halloween passed off rather quiet, no damage being done by the boys as usual, but gates, ploughs, and even the great big boot walked off a short distance, but was found without much trouble. Joe went out ' shooting on Friday last, and while loading his gun, the ramrod stuck in the barrel and he was not strong enough to pull it out, so he fired, the gun giving him a bad kick, making him feel somewhat sore about the shoulder. He says tie ram- rod light between Badgeros and Hom- ing's Mills. " D. A. Holman has moved to the opposite side of the road, the place formerly occupied by J. Miller, and has fitted his place up quite toney. Perhaps he will take unto himself a partner now. He needs one. ~W. H.
