Claim the Lives of Bertha Yarnella and Georgia Coulter. A YACHT CAPSIZED And Five Pleasure Seekers are Tossed Into Eagle Lake. THREE LIVES SAVED. John G. Coulter, William Grey and Eunice Munson Rescued.

EAGLE LAKE, July 13. -A sailboat carrying five young pleasure seekers, capsized on Eagle Lake at 6:30 o'clock last evening, and of the party were drowned. 'The dead: YARNELLE, BERTHA, aged 15, daughter of Mr. Mrs. Edward Yarnelle, Fort Wayne, Ind.

COULTER, GEORGIA, aged -14, youngest daughter of Dr. and Mrs. John Coulter, of the University of The body of Bertha Yarnelle WAS found last night in the rigging of the Ill-fated boat. The other occupants of the boat, who were saved after a heroic struggle with the waves, were Eunice, daughter of F. W.

Munson, of Chicago; John G. Coulter, son of Dr. Coulter, and fellow In the University Chicago, and Will Grey, grandson of W. C. Grey, editor of the Interior, Chicago.

That a high wind ruffled the bosom of the lake; that the white wings of the little sailboat fluttered-in an hour of succorless peril, and that the lives of two young girls were sunk in a watery grave, are facts which will settie like a pall upon the pleasure seekers at Eagle Lake for a long time to come. JOHN COULTER'S A0COUNT. John Coulter was 80 overcome by the loss of his sister and her companion that he was unable to give more than skeleton account of the accident. The boat, he said, was sailing under stiff breeze about a mile from the landing, and in the middle of the lake, when the turbulence of the waves warned the party to head toward the shore. When the frail bark pirouetted on the whirling, seething waters, Misses Yarnelle and Coulter were in the bow, to which they clung for their lives.

William Schemer, the boatman, cried at the top of his voice for the girls to take the windward side of the boat, as it turned about, but the accompaniment of the churning lake was all too strong for his admonition, and the excitement of the 1 moment held the girls to the spot where they sat when the wind arose. In the hurly-burly the boat went over and then -rose like a wounded gull, its white sails gleaming like specters. BOAT AGAIN TIPS. Young Coulter and Grey finally aucceded in getting the three young women to the boat, when she capsized for a second time. Coulter saved Miss Munson, but the other girls lost their.

bold on the slippery deck and were pitched a forward into the vortex of the angry waves. It was all the work of a moment and the rolling billows never for an instant released their prey. Schemer, the boatman, true to the Instincta of his calling, plunged into the lake and for half an hour sought in vain for the bodies of the girls. The body of Miss Yarnelle was found In the tangled rigging of the boat, but the body of Miss Coulter was never geen after the fatal lunge of the stormbeaten launch. Schemer: became un4 conscious shortly after he was taken ashore and is in a precarious condition.

The body of Miss Yarnelle was taken to her father's cottage and Drs. Shackleford, Schoonover, Burkett and Webber, of Warsaw, worked for hours to resuscitate her without effect. The surviving members of the party were picked up by lake steamers haif an hour after the sailboat capsized, The search for the body of Miss Coulter was continued this morning. About 8 o'clock the steamer with its grappling hooks was successful and. the lifeless form of the young girl.

was taken from the waters where it had rested during the night. The two bereaved families are among the most prominent in Indiana. E. F. Yarnelle, of Mossman, Yarnelle at Main and Clinton streets, Fort Wayne, has been one of the most widely known singers in the state.

Professor Coulter's family is known all over the northwest. Before going to. Chicago he was president of the State naiversity, at Bloomington, succeeding David Starr Jordan. Prior to that he was a professor at Wabash college, at. Crawfordsville, and is a botanist of world wide reputation.

He was president of Lake Forest unt versity, Chicago, before going to Chicago university. Both of the girls were charming and beautiful, with every promise of a happy and useful life. The Yarnelle family has been here for many years during the summer season. Prof. Coulter's family has been here but a few days, and this is their frat visit since Prof.

Coulter has. taken charge of Winona summer school. At the time of the accident he was in Chicago. Prof. Stanley Coulter, of Purdue, occupies a cottage here with his family.

At the time of the drowning Mr. Yarnelle was at choir practice. A. short time before the fatal sall Miss Bertha was in the drug store and spoke of the danger of sailing, and referred to the fact that there had been no serious accident since the park was opened. GRIEF IN FORT WAYNE.

GRIFFIN, July -The 2,000 weary a and footsore men who for two days and a half have been chasing Oscar Williams, the negro assailant of the 6-year-old daughter of Senator Campbell, are still scattered through the woods to the west of the place, beating the bushes for the fugitive, but apparently no nearer catching him than they were when they began. The bloodhounds which have been guiding them have frequently thrown them off the trail, and yesterday the dogs were ordered back into their kennels. The mob.
