The Coptic, like the two Orient.
al liners that preceded her, is TAX
ing an enormous cargo of cotton
for the mills in China. Every
foot of spare room in her hold
will be jammed full of cotton. She
is also taking big lot of flour,
which Unjust CO." or space could
not be found for it. 1t is stated
that there is enough more cotton
coming to ELL several Steamers
s Z Chronicle.
The S + Chronicle of the 10th
says: The ship Hawaiian Isles,
Captain Kustel, arrived from New
castle yesterday with a cargo of
coal, after remarkably quick run
of fifty-nine days. The only in
cident of the voyage was the death
of II A Cummings, a forecastle
hand, on December 2. Cum
mings had been sent aloft, but had
only mounted about twenty feet
in the forerigging when he fell
back on the deck, striking on his
head and breaking his neck. He
was buried at sea the same day.
Several vessels damaged in the
recent heavy storms are undergo
ing repairs at the Merchants dry
dock and in that vicinity. The
bark Fresno, recently towed into
port in distress, on account of a
broken rudder, is alongside at
Main street. The jury rudder,
rugged in midocean, proved to be
curious affair. The spanker
boom had been thrust through
sternpost and fan, made of two
inch planking, rugged over its
jaws. With this the bark was
steered half across the Pacifc.-S
f Chronicle.
The S T Chronicle Of Jan IA
says: 1t was officially given out
yesterday that the steamship Mo
nowai, due to arrive from Austria
liam ports today, will be retired in
favor of the Moana, faster and
more commodious vessel, recently
purchased in England by the
Union Steamship Company. The
Monowai will be placed in the in
tercolonial trade. She will make
the outbound trip on her schedule
time, but the Moana will arrive in
her stead in March. The Moana
is of 1900 tons register, 1000 tons
larger than the Monowai, and on
her trial trip attained speed of
sixteen and one-half knots, with
an average Of fifteen knots. She is
especially designed with view to
passenger accommodations, with
elegant promenade decks and
cabins, staterooms s by 10 feet,
lighted with incandescent lamps
and ventilated with electric fans,
and very commodious social hall,
elegantly furnished and fitted out
with a stage for theatrical enter
tainments, 1t Is expected that the
Moara will lessen the time be-
tween this city and Sydney by
forty-eight hours.

E. r.. LAKE,

The president and manager of the
Corvallis & Benton County Prune
Company, Edward R. Lake, was born
in England, in 1860, making him now
81 years old. His parents came to this
country during his infancy, and settled
on farm in southern Michigan. Mr.
Lake and his brothers attended the pub
lie schools in the country, with the
usual results. At the age of II, he was
apprenticed to two brothers, timber
and building contractors, with the pa
rental expectation that he would follow
this line of work In the meantime, he
was allowed to attend the local school
during the winters, until he had Gin
ished" its allotted studies.
At I6, becoming dissatisfied with the
drudgery of an apprenticeship, he aban-
doned it, and returned home to assist
in caring for a herd of dairy cows.
Later, he entered the city high school,
but collapse of his fathers financial
affairs made it necessary for him to
leave school. after brief attendance,
and earn his own livelihood. His in
ability to further prosecute his studies
was, of course, great disappoint
ment, but he did not neglect his edu-
cation. By study and a night school
course, he advanced himself, while en-
gagged in the hard work on his fathers
farm
In this manner he fitted himself for
