Awful Fate of shipwrccked Chin,

Awful Fate Of S"hipwrccked Chfncse
Sailors.
San Francisco. Jan. 1O-The story of
the loss of the British steamer Hupeh
bn her voyage from this city to Hong.
kong. via Java, has been received in
this city. and the details show that the
loss OF the vessel was acc0mpanied by
a far greater loss of life than the cable
reports told of. The vessel sprung
aleak after leaving Java with a cargo
OF sugar for HongkOng. The Chinese
crew refused to work, and the ships
boats, with II exception. were de.
stroyed during the storm, and the crew
built a number Of RATS. launching
them and setting them afioat, leaving
the captain and one passenger on
board the vessel. The Europeans &C.
cupied n raft and the Chinese were
divided Oh six or even others. The
RATS were soon surrounded by hun-
dreds Of ravenous sharks who, in their
eagerness to get at the shipwrecked
sailors. jumped out of the water. Soon
several of the Chinese RATS were over
turned and 1t was then that the Euro
peans decided to return to the vessel;
The only remaining boat was repaired
and launched. the captain taking CON-.
mand. The island of Luband, in the
Philippine group, was finally made,
and on the natives learning that the
mariners were British. subjects, made
them comfortable and later sent them
to Manila. Nothing was ever, heard Of
the Chinese crew, numbering ~forty-fve
men, and they must have been
drowned and devoured by the pursuing
sharks.

boy to explain the pictures. Turning
to a bright brown elephant with an

"What's that?" he asked with his

THAT'S the elephants trunk

The book was produced and again
the child sat thoughtfully looking at

An old Irishman was sitting out in

TIES ARE

Fraternal Feeling Between Scandi-
navian Nations IL Very Marked.
The growth of a more fraternal feel
ing between the Scandinavian nations
has become very marked, especially in
Sweden and Denmark, and there
largely among the plain people. The
establishment of IL periodical in Den
mark as an organ for the Scandinavian
movement has been noted. 1t Is re-
ported that societies for the advance
ment Of the idea have been formed in
Stockholm, G~tMenborg, Cpsala. Norr-
koping and other important Swedish
cities. In Norway there seems to be
less interest in the idea. but then the
Norwegians have cOnSidcrni:c politics
and the national language question to
occupy their time.
Then again, there are constantly
arising incidents which irvitatc the
Norwegians against Sweden; that is to
say, against the government itself.
EARLY in the South African war Nor
way concluded that it would lie de-
sirable to send a few officers to the
war and sent a request to England,
which naturally had to go through the
Swedish foreign office. The British
government denied the request. but
suggested that the military attachc ut
the London embassy could accompany
the British troops. This gave Sweden
an idea, and the attache was directed
to proceed to South Africa. But he
was, of course, a Swede. and the Nor
wegians felt highly irritated. They
were particularly anxious to have mil
itary men in the Transvaal, for the
country is rocky and mountainous
much like Norway. and their obscrva-
lions in South Africa would nave been
particularly valuable. The Norwegians
are also quite convinced that the Swe-
dish foreign department could have
procured consent for at least one Off
Ger from Norway to accompany the
British forces had it tried in earnest.

The Stockholm General Telephone
