for grain charter for Europe. One
OF the bright young apprentices who Is
in training on the ship for an oflcers
commission told the story Of the last
voyage to visitor yesterday.
1--WE left Portland a little over a.
year ago. loaded with lumber for China.
AS soon as we reached the mouth. Of
the willamette on our way down. we
ran aground, and were on the bar
there for IS days. Finally we got Off
and proceeded on our way. We soon
encountered rough weather and our
deck load OF railroad ties caused ,uH
lots Of trouble. We were continually
losing ties from this deckload, and
finally in the China sea we ran into
a tyhpoon and our bnlwarks were par
TALLY washed away. seams in the hull
opened, and we were forced to put into
q drydock for repairs. .,. fn,
II have often thought that the
straining the ship sustained at the
mouth of the Willamette while coming
down from Portland was the cause OF
much of our trouble afterward, and /
believe 1t is taking tall chances to bring
a loaded ship drawing any depth Of
water down the river. s5,
1T has been two years since we were
in home port, but we expect to make
our next voyage to Europe, in which
case we will visit England, our ma
tive land again."

A woodchopper addressed a circle Of
acquaintances on Bond street yester-
day. drifting from the common place
in discourse to flowing and impassion-
ed utterances. The gist Of his ovation
was that he would leave for. Salem

work here" he said. Labor is scarce
and one man has to do the work OF
two. and in some cases three. I've got
twenty-five dollars saved and I'll go
over there and pick hops and make
twenty-five more. That will last me
until November first. I'll be broke then
and come back and make a new stake.

ARRIVAL OF DREYFUs
Is Being A~nxiously Watched for Mt
Brest


Brest, France, June 2a.-The inhab-
itants of this port are absorbed in the
expected arrival of Dreyfus. The
question on c~veryone's lips is when
will he a%rrive?' but no one seems able
TO reply. The town. however, is per-
fectly calm. Along the %favorite prom
enade. the Cours Dajot. on the cliff
overlooking The splendid harbor in
which half a dozen picturesque old
t~hree-dcckers are lying moored along
side nlodern cruisers, We're a few
groups Of sailors and marines gazing
seaward. When questioned they adj
mitted that they were watching for
the French cruiser Sfax, bound from
French Guiana with the famous pris-
oner on board. but in the same breath
expressed the belief that she will not
arrive in the day time. They think
the warship win be kept outside the
harbor until nightfall and then Drey-
fus will be landed inside the arsenal.
This is also the general opinion of the
townspeople, who are anxious to wit
ness the landing. The military and
civil authorities profess 10 know moth
ing of the matter, not even III the
Sfax Is coming to Brest.
