"All hands saved" was the salutation
made by Captain Whitney, Of he wrecked
bark Oakland. as ne stood en- the deck
OF the schooner Laura May, which tied
up at the dock here yesteriay afternoon.
In speaking of mis- recent rough exper'
fences Captain Whitney saId TO an As
torian representative; Myself and 10 men
have had a very narrow escape. We sailed
from Astoria DecenSer - with a cargo
OF lumber for California. was M
eighth owner in the vessel. So far as ]
know she was staunch and seaworthy.
Shortly after leaving the Columbia river
we struck a gale. bun managed 10 rea n
I5 south Directly we were in another
heavy gale. and we're drifted towards the
north. On tho 24th found that the water
in the hold was gaining upon US. it being
then seven feet Il was evident to me
that the seams in the Forward part Of the
boat had spread in an unaccountahle
manner AT o'cock on the afternoon OF
the sith We commenced throwing our deck
load over5oard. and by pm. Christmas
day had finished down to the hog chains.
Then I'VE found that the forward hcg
chain had parted. This may have caused
the leak. AT go on The morning OF the
26th the main deck blew Up, from the
pressure OF water beneath. as II a charge
OF dynamite had been fired under II. The
ships nose 9sas already under water, but
UP to that time we had good hopes o:
being able to wear her around and get
into port After the accident we con-
eluied IL was useless to stay by the ship
any longer and took to he boats. Early
that morning we sighted the schooner

distress by firing blue lights and rockets
and the schooner hove TO for us. After
taking to the boats We were only about
20 minutes in reaching the schooner. The
sea was rough, but all Of US managed to
get aboard of her in safety. We took
nothing away with us. but the rags We
stood in. There was no insurance. on the

the ship must have split IN the second
gale We encountered When We left her

angle of about Is degrees. and il she had

+" Hoke Day."

A custom that has existed for sew
sral centuries is still maintained in
some towns on the Lower Rhine. On
Easter Monday the Town Crier calls
all the young people together, and to
the highest bidder sells the privilege
of dancing with chosen girl. and her
only, during the entire year that fol-
lows. The fees flow into the public
poor-hox. In many country districts
Of England the second day after Eas-
ter is known as Hoke Day, and is no.
ticeable for curious custom which
existed in some villages until compar-
atively recently, and was certainly
practiced as far back as the thirteenth
century. This practice, known as
boxing or hooking, consisted in lift
ing person off the ground. 1t was
usual for the men to lift the women
on the Monday, and the women to re-
turn the compliment on the following
day.

osTARA, GODDESS OF EASTER.


She Has Given Her Name to Ono of the
Greatest Events in the Christian Year.
Ostara, the Goddess of Easter and Of
Spring, is one of the most attractive
personages in German mythology,
which is also the mythology of what
we are in tie habit of calling the An
glo-Saxon race
This heather goddess has given her
name to one of the greatest events in
the Christian year. The name is a
form of the modern German "Ostern"
and of the English Easter" The early
Church found it wise to adapt to Chris
tian purposes many institutions and
customs of pagan nature which had
become established in the affections Of
