Notwithstanding the season of 1873 has been unusually disastrous the number of- lives lost has not been as many as in past years from-either causes. ‘That may have been lost from the want of life saving ap- pliances, there can be no doubt. The necessity of keeping at hand and on deck of every vessel while outside one or more life preservers has been repeatedly spoken of. Alsoin times of peril having the small boat in readiness for instant launching and free from the’ danger of swamping is a matter well worthy attention of our lake mariners The recording and leaving on shore the names of passengers or crews so far as it can be carried out is alao quite necessary.
