A Sailors Suicide.

An Astoria dispatch of April 18th says:
Harry Fredricksen who signed articles and
shipped on the Storm King last Friday
jumped overheard and was drowned last
evening. The ship was lying in stream off
Smiths Point. A fishing boat was passing
when Fredricksen jumped overheard. The
mate ordered the second mate and men to
lower ships boat, and pick the man up,
then seized rifle and declared he would
shoot the men in the ii hing boat if they
picked up the man, who was swimming to
them. When the ships boat was about so
feet from him he sank and was seen no
more. His drowning has created some ex.
citement in town, and it is thought the
MEN in the fishing boat might have saved
him. 1t was reported the man was shang-
haied aboard, but this is denied by Capt
Reed, who says he signed articles in the
custom house when sober, and he paid
$50 advance and SO blood money for him.
Big Harry, as he was called, was well
known here, having fished several seasons
for the Hunies. The Storm King has been
ready for sea two weeks, but was delayed
for want Of a crew

red ON the .. r. & N. Co.'S railroad at tun.
mel No 2. The construction train ran into
a hand car in that tunnel. There were
five men on the hand car at the time of the
collision. Four of the men saw the danger
in time and jumped aside and saved their
lives; hut one man, named D. A. Upham
laborer, was struck and instantly killed.
The unfortunate man was Novia Scotian,
and leaves family at Truro, Novia Scotia.
His wife's name is Emily Upham. The
body of the deceased was taken care of and
coroner's inquest held yesterday. The
verdict was that the railroad company was
in no way to blame for the accident, as it
was entirely due to the carelessness of the
men ON the hand car, who had no business
running there at that time. Mr.. H. B.
Thielsen telegraphsd up orders to have the
unfortunate man decently buried, at the
expense of the company.

The extension of the wharf is being pro-

Communicated,

DEAR GAzETTE.-On our way down the
Willamette on the "a. A. McCully" (Capt.
j. b. Sanborn), an interest ny incident
occurred. As We neared Wynooski COW
was seen, beneath high bluff, sunk deep
in the mire and utterly unable to extricate
from the high ground above into the miry
place in which she had stuck fast half bur.
led in the mud. Capt. Sanburn, prompted
by that humanity which is part of his
very nature, Immediately he discovered the
poor animal headed his boat for the shore
and very soon, by his orders, set of as
fine a lot of men as ever formed the crew
of a steamboat got ashore and with willing
hands soon got the poor COW out of the
mire took her aboard the boat and landed
her little further down the river whence
she was soon on her way to the road. Some
of the men followed her up the bank to the
highway where they met her owner who
OH being informed of the above facts simply
remarked "when stock gets there we have
10 pun Incfu out WHICH way Olu she go.
The fellow hadn't the slightest idea that he
ought at least to have said ''thank YOU"
Such ungrateful fellows don't deserve any
favors; but, as Capt. Sanborn said, he
didn't do it for the man but for the cow.
We are credibly informed that this was only
one of many such acts of compassion that
this humane Captain and his kind hearted
crew are constantly performing along the
river.
We had a most enjoyable ride from Cor.
Wallis to Portland and were delighted with
the boat, her cabin officers and kind
hearted crew and shall not soon forget the
pleasure We enjoyed on board the "Mc.
Gully" Our better half was especially
delighted with the noble.hearted Captain
most estimable wife whose acquaintance
she made on the trip, and we shall always
think that the McCully should be called
the Humane Society Home. If all masters
of steamboats, were as tender. hearted as
Capt. Sanborn. Captain for steamboat
would only be another name for humane
man. VIAToR.

ignorantly supposed. They have heretofore
been advised by eminent lawyers in Port
land that the suit could not be maintained
by them until the death of their father, as
his right as tenant by the courtesy would
prevent their receiving the same until
after his death. It will be remembered
that Gen. Coffin died few weeks ago, and
now they claim their right to the land has
accrued to them. This is an important
move, and will have tendency to unsettle
numerous titles to property in the city of
Portland. The land claimed is now worth
