Elisa's coming. Get in line.
EVANGELIST PEARSON'S WORK.

MT. R. G. Pearson, the evangelist, who has been conducting the revival services at the first Presbyterian church for sev- eral days past. leaves today.
 His work has been fruitious of converts and widespread attention to the right course of life, that of a noble pure pur- pose for life instead of waywardness and Wickedness. He has taught many hard sinners profitable lessons and he has drawn numbers of them within the pale of Christianity. Men have sat before him who perhaps have not heard the word of God since their childhood, and it is due to the eminent divine's cordial and earnest appeal to the sinners con- science that many listless ears have been turned towards the commands of God.
 Birmingham and host of new-made friends regret to see him leave.
 Drs. Armstrong and Handley.
 Rev. Dr. Armstrong, pastor of St. Johns Methodist church, preached at the Southside Baptist church last night to an enthusiastic audience. Dr. l.. F. Handley will preach at the same church tonight at 7:30 The meeting will con- tinue through the week, services begin ming at 7:30 each night.

THE HANKew Nor REPAIRED.
The Dock at Quartermaster Harbor
Not Able to Hold Her.

Tacoma, Jan 30.-Special-The Northern
Pacific Steamship Company's Oriental
liner Hankow returned at ? o'clock this
afternoon from an unsuccessful attempt to
have repairs made upon her hull on the dry
dock al Quartermaster harbor The ship
was towed to the dock last night. but it
was found impossible TO raise her as far
as required by the location Of the loosened
rivets IN her bow on the port side The
Hankow's nose was run on the dock about
twenty feet, and an effort was made to
raise her When she had been on the dock
two hours the attempt was given up, as
the water was still above the location OF
the aperture, and the dock was in danger
of being badly sprung. She was then or
deTed off at the instance Of Capt. Pope, sur
veyor for Lloyds. and g c. Cherry and
Capt. Bryant, government boiler and hull
inspectors.
Authorities differ as 20 the failure OF
the attempt to make the needed repairs on
the Hankow. The ship is nearly seventy
five feet longer than the dock. and was
unusually hard TO raise. owing 10 the fact
that 100 tons OF -four was placed well aft.
and there was comparatively nothing for
ward The ship drew bat eight feet OF
water at her bow and twenty-one feet az
her stern. This fact made It q very difficult
task for the dock to raise her bow the re-
quired distance.
The sxS yimbers placed on the dock on
which the ship rested were crushed Ike
pipestems and the weight coming Directly
on the dock. sprung II n several places.
When Z was decided TO give up The at
tempt 70 dock the Hankow at Quartermas-
ter she was towed hack 20 the Ocean
wharf by the Tyee. and arrangements were
made by DodweH. Garlic & Co, local
agents OF the steamship company, 10 place
the vessel on the dock at Esqu,malt. Her
cargo was discharged and she wii he lowed
down Sound tomorrow by the Tyee. AS
the extent Of the injuries 20 the ships hull
are greater than an first supposed. she VIII
probably remain on the dock week or ten
days Her sailing time was Sunday, but u
IS not known at present when she Will get
away.
General regret Is expressed in shipping
circles over the fact that the Haukow will
have 20 be sent 10 a British Columbia dry
dock 10 be repaired. which viii INVOLVE the
expenditure OF several thousand dollars
The recent FIRE IN the Hankows coal
