During the lively wind-squall about
Jpn. last Monday one of the tall poplars
in front of the residence of Mr.. Geo. F..
Hoskinson, Centralia, came down with
a mighty crash, and measured its sixty
feet of length across the lawn and I'M
comfortably near the house, the roar
of its fall was terrific rising high above
that of the elements. The tree had
been struck by lightning some three
years ago and while it appeared sound
upon the outside the upturned roots
showed the base of the tree to be rotton.
1t measured thirty inches in diameter,
six feet from the ground, and would
have smashed the house had it fallen
ten feet further to the northward.

EIGHT PASSENGERS
 WERE CALIF0RNIANS

Captain Henderson and the ship Cromartyshire are we'll known In this port. On his last visit the captain was accompanied by his wife and they made many warm friends in San Fran cisco. That was in September, October and November. 1896. On the Fist of the latter month the Cromartyshire was lowed to sea by the tug Vigilant. She made a smart run home, and after discharging was loaded at Liverpool for Sydney, N. $. w.
 From Sydney the Cromartyshire went to Newcastle, N. s. w., and there loaded coal for Astoria. In the Colum- bia River she took on 52,190 centals of wheat, valued at $79,055, and with it she arrived at Cork on May last after a passage of 151 days. Captain Hen derson's wife accompanied him in all his wanderings and was aboard the ship when the catastrophe occurred.

boat and together they managed to right it. Under the seats they found the bodies of four men and three wo- men who had evidently been drowned by the capSiZing of the boat. Brunon said the seamen were cruel in thelr con- duct toward the passengers. He was unable to get in the steamers boats when he came on deck, being shoVed away by the sailors. He saw many of his friends being prevented from get ting into the boats by the sailors.
 Mehleni Secondi, an Italian steerage passenger, is among the saved. When he got on deck he found raft with five men on it. The raft, however, was tied and chained fast to the deck and no sailors were near to let it loose. None of the five men had knives. The ship sank rapidly and they were all preCipitated into the water. He was in the water twenty minutes and alone, the other five sinking before his eyes. He came across a boat which he tried to get into. He eventually succeeded, but not before a desperate fight with the crew. He was battered with oars and showed with boathooks.
 Mrs. Henderson, wife of the captain, was on board the Cromartyshire with her two children. She tells a thrilling story of the terrible experience. The weather was foggy and she had risen from her bunk at an early hour, as was her custom when the weather was bad. shortly before the vessels came together she heard a whistle on the port side. The Cromartyshire was sounding her fog horn at intervals of one minute. Mrs. Henderson called the attention of her husband to the sound fngs of the whistle, and a minute later the mate, who was on watch, also de- tected the sound. It came nearer and nearer, and Mrs. Henderson stood by the cabin in order to rescue her child ren should a disaster occur.
 Suddenly the huge hulk of an ocean steamer loomed up in the mist, going about seventeen knots an hour. Almost immediately there was a fearful crash and Mrs. Henderson rushed below and found her children awakened by the shock. She dressed the little ones as quickly as possible and removed them to the deck, expecting to see her own ship go down at any minute.
 Captain Henderson, as soon as the collision occurred. ordered the boats to be lowered and the damage to be ascertained. AS it was found that the CromartyshiTe was in no immediate danger the Britisher put about. The vessel with which they had collided was at that time unknown. A few minutes later her whistle was heard and several rockets were sent up. Cap- tain Henderson replied in a like man. ner thinking the steamer was offer ing assistance, but in a few minutes all was quiet, and those on board began to realize the awful results of the col lision.
 On the morning of the collision Cap- tain Henderson was on the poop with his third mate, A. c. Stewart. Sailor Io1
 Officer Killaman was also on the fore castle deck. The CrOmartyshire was making about five miles an hour, with several sails set, and taking in all the time. Not a sound was heard until Lookout Haley saw a large steamer

In an instant the Cromarty- shire's iibboom struck the Bourgogne's s bridge and the sailing vessel crushed into the liner, staving big hole near the engine room. La Bourgoghe scraped the whole length of the Gro martyshire's port side and then she veered off La Bourgogne blew long, mournful whistles for assistance. Third Mate Stewart of the Cromartyshire says that the Frenchman evidently thought the Bourgogne had sunk the colliding vessel.
 At the time of the collision, Third Mate Stewart says, La Bourgogne was going at about the rate of eighteen or nineteen knots an hour, through dense fog, shutting out everything more than twenty yards away.
 About three hours after the Cromar- tvshire picked up the survivors the Allan liner Grecian was sighted and took the Cromartyshire in tow. About s o'clock that evening, three miles away. Third Mate Stewart heard guns and saw three rockets go up and blue light. the signal of distress, burning. !
