 MENDoCINo, Cal, Dec. 22.-While the steamer West Coast was hauling alongside the wharf at Point Arena yesterday her mooring parted and her stern lines fouled the propeller. Captain Gerne ordered the sails hoisted immediately and the steamer had just gained headway when two heavy seas struck her, sending her on the south reef. A number of the crew took to the ships boat. The boat cspsized and nine men-two engineers, two mates, the cook, cabin boy and three sailors-were drowned. The captain, firemen and two sesmen were saved. The West Coast had a cargo of railroad ties. She was owned in San Fran cisco and was valued at about $200, 900. She was partly insured,

Pioneers.

Among the worthy pioneers OF
Brookings county who deserve
special mention are Mr.. and Mrs. Il.
p. Smith, who have resided south of
Brookings for the past seventeen
years. When this venerable couple
came to Dakota there were only two
or three houses between old Medary
and Big Stone Lake. Mr.. Smith is
n years old and has been lifelong
republican, having cast his first vote
for William Henry Harrison. He
went from New York state to Wis
consin in 1914 and lived there for
thirty wears, then moved to Brook
ings county. His esteemed wife is II
years of age and Is yet able to do her
own housework.

Interest In art on the part of the New
York artists seems to be at pretty low ebb
when the Hallgarten prizes offered for award
at the spring exhibition Of the Academy of De-

artists who exhibited were too Indifferent
about the matter to vote upon the merits Of the
paintings offered in competition. And vet it is

this country do not encourage or appreciate

- The display Of works by the pupils of Miss
8. ". Kelly, just closed at her studio, was in
the highest degree creditable, alike to teacher
and pupils, and was considered by many who

- The exhibition Of pastsls by Messrs Parker

week attracted much attention, and a very
gratifying proportion of the exhibit was marked
sold early in the week.
- The very favorable impression made by
Mr.. Dunbar's busts and reliefs, recently ex-
hibited, has crystalized, his friends will be glad

been busy with sitters pretty much ever since

In illustration, seemingly. of the saying
that 'blessings brighten as they take their

TIE coRcoRAN GALLERY PURCHASE.
The announcement in The STAB Of the pur-
chase by the trustees of the Corcoran Art
Gallery Of Q large tract Of land at 18th street
and New York avenue has naturally attracted
u good deal of attention to that section Of the
city. Formerly this locality, especially that
portion south Of Pennsylvania avenue and west
Of 18th street, extending nearly to the river
front. was the center of the fashionable life Of
the city. The foreign minister's, many
Of them, had their residences there, and
the hospitable homes OF prominent citizens
were conspicuous. OF late years. however, the
fine houses have been abandoned by their
owners and the property has to large extent,
fallen into q neglected condition. This state
of affairs was, mainly due to the proximity OF
the river Cats, but since the work Of reclama-
ton has been begun and the pestilent marshes
are giving place to o broad expanse Of park,
which will in the future be adorned by lakes
and drives, property interests have revived.
A this purchase Of the Corcoran Gallery indi-
casos, land in that locality can no longer be
bought for . song. There was paid the round
sum Of sl54.0z2 for some 6s,S74 square feet
