DISASTER AT SEA.
The American Ship VIM. a. Camp
bell Goes Down.
Eleven Men Without Food for
Nine Days-A Boat Load
Adrift at Sea.

The steamer W. G. Hall brought
news of the safe arrival at Puma,
Hawaii, on last Wednesday, Sep
TENDER 10th, of boat containing
the chief officer and ten OF the
crew of the American ship William
A. Campbell, which was lost at sea
in gale on August Both, in lat.
IA deg. N, and long. 100 deg. ".
The w. A. Campbell was YES
sci of 1494 tons register, and was
commanded by Captain Havener.
She left Port Townsend on August
3rd, with 100000 feet of lumber
for Queenstown. On the twenty
seventh day out she met terrific
gale, and after several hours en-
counter, went down with her cargo.
Captain Havener and wife and five
seamen took to boat while the
mate and ten seamen got into q
second boat. Both boats made for
Hilo, the nearest port, but became
separated the first night after aban-
doning the shipand the mate did not
see the captain again till they sight
ed his boat off Puma. The mates
boat covered the distance in TWEEN
ty-two days, and the crew was re-
ported to have been without food
for nine days prior to reaching
terra tirma. The men landed near
Mr.. Eldart's ranch, place about
sixteen miles from Hilo, and about
thirty miles from Honuapo. The
men were weak from hunger and
thirst, but the residents of Puma
received them and gave them all
assistance possible. The ship
wrecked men were doing favorably
well at last accounts. The cap
tain's boat had not reached Hawaii
when the w. G. Hall left. Pre-
vious to parting, Captain Havener
told his mate that he was going to
make for Hilo. The news of the
shipwrecked crew was telephoned
from Puma to Hilo and the Volca'
no House, and from the latter
place the w. G. Hall received the
message over the wire last
Wednesday when she was
at Honuapo, Kau. The place
where the mates boat arrived
at Puma was almost near the spo1
where the whaleship Jno. T. West
was wrecked several months ago
Great anxiety is felt for the safety
of the captains boat, but the prob
ability is that she will reach Hiie
in a few days if she had not al
ready been picked up at sea by
passing vessels.
The loss of the vessel and the
information that the captain Wa'
adrift at sea, caused no little Elk
element on the water front. Yes
terday afternoon when the new
first came several masters OF mer
chant vessels in port suggested
that the q. S. S. Boston go Il
search of the unfortunate seamel
as there is but little hope OF tn
men gaining shore.

Declined the Passes.

The presentation t,y Sir Edwin Ar
mold of the manuscript of meritorious
and intrinsically Valuable poem to the
Lotos club recalls an incident chat
marked the visit of Henry Irving to this
city in 1889. Like Sir Edwin, Mr.. Irving
had been an honor,d guest at Lotos
club banquet. The, enthusiasm Of the
lotos eaters is bouni Hess and their hospi-
tality is proverbial- Sir Edwin, in the
enthusiasm of the moment, presented
the club with the II Manuscript of poem
for which he had loeen offered a large
sum of money. Mr. Irving, after enjoy
ing the hospitality of the club, insisted
on presenting each member with an an
nual pass to the Lyceum theater, in Lon
don. The limitle IS possibilities of such
presentation impressed certain MEM
bers of the club TO such an extent that
they undertook: the task of prevailing
upon each member to send note declin-
ing the proffAped favor Mr.. Irving's
impulsive generosity was thereby saved
from very expensive consequences. =

A Treasured Hoof.

A very interesting relic has fallen into
the possession of the well known Bir-
mingham physician, Sir James Sawyer
1t is one of the hoofs of the identical
horse that Lord Cardigan rode in the
charge of the Light Brigade. Lady
Sawyer's father, who was Lincolnshire
rector, received this precious relic of the
historic charge from Lord Cardigan, and
it bears an inscription to this effect. The
four hoofs are now disposed of as fol-
lows: The Prince Of Wales, an honor
ary colonel of the Tenth Hussars, has
one; another belongs. to the officers of
that famous regiment, and it is brought
out at mess on state occasions; the
Countess of Cardigan owns third; and
the last, which is the off hind hoof,
graces the sideboard of Sir James Saw
yer. 1t is beautifully mounted in silver,
and is naturally highly priced by its
owner-London Tit-Bits.
