There was no boat from either OF the
cruisers here ar the hour named and
certainly l would make no such a
reply TO an offer Of that nature, and
especially not to the captain OF an
American war vessel. 1 have lived
too long in the United States, and
honor her representative officers too
much to do such thing, and l trust |
am too much of gentleman to insult
anyone without provocation. l have
heard nothing of any intention of the
Philadelphia's captain TO lend assist
| ance with his vessel, and have not ex-
pected it, as I do not believe such a
thing is safe or practicable.
Contrary to entertaining any such
feelings as would lead me TO return
any such reply, wish 70 make pub
lie my thanks to both the civil au-
| thorities, as we'll as all those who have
lent assistance in the matter, and es-
pecially to the naval forces of the
United States now here, who have act
ed most generously and always with
that courtesy for which the officers of
the United States navy are notorious
the world over.

THE OUTLOOK IS GLOOMY.
Captain Lorenzen, who has been
| aboard the vessel since the disaster,
and who will remain there till the
vessel is either abandoned or taken
off, was questioned last evening re-
garding the outlook for the vessel,
said: "The outlook is gloomy in the
extreme. There will be no further at
tempt to get the ship off tonight, and
unless she comes off at high tide to-
morrow'-a very expressive silence
finished the pilots remarks.
The work of jettisoning the coal and
discharging perishable freights, such
as fruits, has been going on since
O'Clock on Tuesday morning. 1t will
be fifty-one hours up to o'clock this
morning since the first freight from
the niowera was put on board Hack
| field & Co.'s scows. There still remains
on board little less than 1000 tons of
cool and several tons of cargo such as
dry goods, ETC., which was in the for
ward part of the ship, and about forty
tons of pig iron.
Clarence Crabbe and Jerry Simon
son brought ashore in their scows last
evening the perishable freight, in
Guiding fruits, and also linens, bedding
and silverware from the saloon. The
packages and effects of the passengers
will be brought ashore this morning.
CAN SHE BE REPAIRED HERE.
Since the stern post and rudder
have gone by the board it is no
longer question Of doubt as to
whether the steamer will need extern
sive repairs in case she is gotten off
the rocks in floating condition. She
is too large a ship to be taken on the
marine railway, and while she may
be hoisted up one end at time and
the injuries to her stem and stern re-
paired in that way, it is extremely
doubtful if the damage which must
have been done to her bottom can be
repaired short of large dry dock,
and if such proves to be the case, the
prospect of long stay for the Mo
vera in this port are very good, even
if she can be repaired here at all.

THE STEAMERS QUIT.

was no such activity about the decks
as has been seen there since the acct
dent occurred. The men were work.
ing in the hold and coal was being
jettisoned from the two forward
matches and few hundred yards
to windward small steamer
was seen, which was presum-
ably the Hawaii, but there was no
cable between her and the steamer.
There were three anchors to wind
ward, one abeam and two astern, and
all made fast to the starboard quarter.
The ship was rolling a great deal
and pounding on the rocks at q fright
full rate. If the steamer has no holes
in her bottom it is most likely due to
her bilge keels, as at the rate she has
been hammering the greater part of
the time since she went ashore it
would be little short of miracle il
she had escaped had she not been thus
protected.
The position of the vessel last even
ing was almost the same as when she
went ashore, except that she has
moved a trifie TO leeward and astern.
She is two feet higher out of the water
than she was when she went on,
which is due either to the leeway she
has made or to the coal jettisoned
| having shoaled the water under her.

Poets have sung of the flavor Of the
genuine Southern ham. This tooth
some meat comes from the despised
"rnzorpack," an animal that has no
time to put on fat, 80 he puts on extra
slices oflean until the acorns FALL, and
then he fattens just right to fit an cpl.
cures mouth. Bill Nye thus says OF
him:
II shall never speak lightly Of the
ridge.rooter again. He is subject to
none Of the diseases peculiar to corpu'
lence. He breaths good air, eats the
pokeberry in midsu miner until his CELL
{ngs and wsinscottings are as red as q
chinese demonstration; then he eats
the wild cucumber which falls from the
cucumber tree after the squirrel has
had all he wants, ana the result Is that
BY November he is ready TO take u

ripe, still slender and girlish in figure,
but as tender and Juicy rs Brazil nut.

PLANT WALNUTS.

Trying to think Of something that
would benefit the country, hit it.
Plant walnuts: not sprouts or young
trees, but walnuts; walnut timber is
growing scarce and valuable. Any
body can plant 100 to 1000. and they
will add from 100 10 1000 dollars year
to the value Of his land for the next 100
years. Walnut timber has recently
sold as high as $65 per tree. Plant in
fence corners, in the woods and in all
sorts of out Of the way places anywhere.
Plant them by scores and hundreds.
Just dig little hole, drop the walnut
in hull and all, and cover it up; it wont
take half minute to each walnut.
Each one will be worth dollar when
it comes up, and u dollar more every
year as long as it lives, saying nothing
about the nuts. I don't believe any
thing would benefit this country more
than for everybody to 60 into this, and
it would not cost anybody a cent?.

The New shumeom.

There is more in that Rockland Qlls.)
mans experiment than would seem at a
first glance. He proposes to have him
self buried alive, and promises at the end
of few weeks to emerge from his tomb
full of life and vigor and not the slight
est bit damaged by his contact with sus-
pended animation.
If the Rockland man succeeds, there
ought to be no more suicides. His due
tilted slumber will be q panacea for
great many things, including heart PAN
les, domestic difficulties and short bank
accounts. We say this taking it for
granted that he will not keep his secret,
but will let the whole human family into
his confidence and fully explain how the
oriental trick of filling grave for
awhile without dying is done.
When all the world has been enlight-
ened on this subject, the lover whose
breast holds tempest can seek surcease
of sorrow in one of the public letheala-
RUINS which will of course be estab-
lished. He can suicide for few weeks,
as it were, and only born fools will then
suicide for keeps.
The man of family who finds hard
times pushing him to the wall can take
his whole brood to one of these temples
of temporary oblivion, and all can rest
there until the crisis is past. So, too,
the young man who has no money to
spend on his vacation can have himself
put away in nichein one of these places
and give out that he is all the while
touring Europe
The lethealarium will serve many pur-
poses of this kind and will help to
spread optimism all over the sphere.
Dying for few weeks will become a
great fad if the Rockland man triumphs.
Tempus may fugit, but eternity will not
be in it any more.--New York World.

What a Young Man Did.

A college graduate had hardly received
his diploma before he was compelled to
face poverty and family disgrace. His
father, who had been reputed to be
wealthy, was an embezzler and q fugi-
tive from justice. His mother and sisters
were entirely dependent upon his modest
earnings in brokers' Office
He had planned taking an advanced
course of professional study in architec-
ture. His ideal occupation had to be
abandoned. He was in love with a
charming girl, but ceased to visit her
since marriage was out Of the question.
An opportunity for q years travel in Eu-
rope at friends expense was given up.
Year after year he maintained hard
bitter struggle to make living at un-
congenial employment for his mother
and sisters, to support his father abroad
and to overcome prejudice caused by the
family disgrace. He became success
full busiu ess man, but was prematurely
gray at 41 His life was haunted by the
ghosts Of his youthful hopes.
Such lives do not furnish material for
exciting stories. They are dull and pro-
sale, but are nevertheless heroic. To
give up all that is dear to youth and to
be loyal to family obligations sometimes
is crowning triumph of unselfishness

FRANK YOUNG YESTERDAY.
His Almost Miraculous Escape from
Death-A Plunge Down a Sewer

able Accident.

to $780,.

To fall down a shaft 81 feet and live
is most remarkable experience. such,
however, was the thrilling experiences
OF Frank Young yesterday morning.
Mr.. Young is one of the contractors on
the outfall sewer.
The shaft to eection five of the big
sewer is 81 feet deep, and is entered by
means of an elevator run by an engine.
Mr.. Young has gone up and down
the shaft in the elevator hundreds OF
times. but it is not likely he will repeat
the performance for some weeks. When
seen by HERALD representative yester-
day he told a thrilling story of his mar
row escape from instant death.
1t was about 8 O'Clock. Mr.. Young
stepped on the cage of the elevator and
signaled the engineer to ''let 'er go"
There was nothing remarkable in this
for many time he had given similar
orders TO- be lowered into the darkened
tunnel more than half hundred feet.
Often when the signal of descent was
given the engineer would open the
throttle and allow the elevator to
descend for Is or 20 feet at lightning
speed, making simply drop, slowing
up until reaching the tunnel below.
But when the engineer attempted to
follow his usual custom yesterday it
was attended with disastrous results.
He opened the throttle and the cage
shot down the shaft at most terrific
speed. The engineer saw that his en-
CINE wss beyond control and thought
Young had met horrible death. He
stood aghast, finally rushing to the
shaft.
Below lay Young in cuddled up po-
sition, apparently iifeless. The work of
reecue was at once begun and the unfor-
tunate man taken to the top. He was
totally paralyzed in the lowsr part of
his body and was almost UNCONSCIOUS.
On being carried to the camp. Mr..
Young recovered sufficiently within nalf
an hour to. tell tine story. He said that
as soon as the cage started he knew
something was wrong, as be had never
before gone down at such terrific speed.
"Good bye. Frank" he said, referring
to himself, as he shot down the dark
ened shaft. His breath was gone, then
all was blank. Mr.. Young charac-
terizes the miraculous escape as an ex-
perience seldom met with and one that
no man would wish to go through.
DIR. Campbell made an examination
but found that the injured man sus-
tanned no fractures. His legs were.
however, covered with severe cuts and
contusions. He was very badly bruised,
while the shock was something terrible.
Later in the day, Mr.. Young was re-
moved to the residence of his brother,
r.. b. Young, 425 Broadway, where at q
late hour last night he was resting cas-
lily. No dangerous results are likely.
Mr.. Young is partner of Captain
Mackay, and they have the contract for
the construction OF section five Of the
big sewer.

prayer.

The districts were called by charges,
Rev. E. j. Inwood serving as secretary
pro tenn, and the pastors reported their
respective statistics to the proper secre-
taries and treasurers.
The doxology was sung, and benedic-
tion pronounced by Rev. James B. Hol-
loway.
Immediately upon the close OF this
session the semi-centennial service was
convened, with Rev. A. M. Hough in
the chair.
Rev. DR.. Stevenson offered prayer and
Rev. DR.. Daniel Cobb of Los Angeles de-
livered the semi-centennial address.

esting address Mrs. 9. Leach of Comp

After singing America, Rev. g. A..
Thomson, presiding elder OF the Fresno
district, offered prayer. and the presi-
dent, Mrs. DR.. J. P. Widney, made a
few remarks, introducing Mrs. d. M.
Welch, who told in most enchanting
manner of the outfit Of young preach
er and his wife, packed in barrel for
transportation over the Santa Barbara
mountains. Mrs. Welch also gave q
very touching statement OF some OF the
conditions with which large per cent
OF the pastors OF the Southern Califor-
MIA conference were surrounded. In one
instance young man gave his entire
salary OF 500, paid by the Woman's
Home Missionary society, toward the
building of church in which to preach
the gospel to his people, and then la
bored with his own hands for his board.
In another case the pastor q ealary is paid
in sacks OF grain, which the farmers
could not transport to market.
In one instance q pastors faithful

butter to help support her own family;
and another 10 taking care Of poultry

The dead leaves rustic at my feet.
Tho moon is shining brightly;
Something has softly dimmed my eyes
Across the path one shadow lies,
The path two trod SO lightly.

Love left us only sorrow;
held her little hand in mine;
That parting is to ne divine.
Then there was no tomorrow.

Hearts are not easy broken.
Tonight oil joys have forgot;
There's something sacred in this spot,

Would could live that night again,
With oil its sadness-swectened pain.
