Anglesea, N. J., July 30.--Two yachts
coming in from the fishing banks capon Hereford inlet bar off here, and eight persons lost their lives. There were thirty-two persons on one yacht, of whom seven were lost, and twelve on the other, all of whom but one were saved. That not more fell victims to the rough sea was due to
the heroism of Captain Henry S. Ludof the Hereford Inlet life-saving station, and a crew of five men. So far as known all the dead came from Philor vicinity. Wind Freshens Too Much. The two yachts that got into trouble were the sloop yacht Nora, which had on board Captain Herbert Shivers, his mate, and thirty passengers, and the sloop Alvin B, with a party of twelve. The Nora had gone to the fishing bank at Five Fathom bank, about ten miles out to sea, early in the day. When the wind began to freshen Captain
Shivers decided that it was time to
make port, and with the assistance of a small gasoline engine and a good spread of canvas he made good time toward Anglesea. As the sloop bowled along the wind was getting stiffer and the sea rougher. Captain Shivers, from long experience, knew how treacheris the Hereford bar, and apit with his usual caution. Hit by a Squall and a Wave. The sand obstruction is about a mile from shore. Just as he was about to go over it a heavy squall struck the Nora. Despite the efforts of the capthe craft heeled over and was hit by a huge wave. The wind and the wave coming together was more than
the yacht could stand, and it turned
completely over, throwing the thirty-
two occupants into the sea. Saved by Heroic Work. All who were left alive got hold of the vessel's keel, but gradually the survivors diminished in number until but twenty-live were left of the thirtyThe survivors had nearly givup hope when Captain Ludlam with his life-boat hove in sight and by heroic work after at the risk of th
lives of the rescuers the survivors were gotten on board the lifeboat. The yacht Alvin B capsized about a mile from where the Nora had her disaster, but as there were several boats nearby all but one were saved.
