BRUTUs AGROUND.

WASHINGTON, July 2t.-Lieuten-
ant \. b. Hoff of the navy and twenty
seven bluejackets had some exciting
experiences on board the collier Bru-
tus at Guam. which are related IN a
report just received at the Navy De
partment. The Brutus was riding at
anchor at the USUAL anchorage in Guam
waters in the latter part OF May, when
the wind began to blow freshly from
the northwest. Fires were started III
the engine-room. The barometer feii
slowly. and late that night it began
blowing hard, with binding rain Dur
ing the night, at various Times, the
engines were steamed ahead TO ease
the cables.
At daylight the next morning reef
was found close astern, and, owing to
its proximity. the officer in charge de-
termined u shift his berth TO tie
windward. In attempting TO get under
way one of the anchors did not come
lip promptly, and the steam gear failed
to work. The ships head fell off.
bringing the ship upon the reef broad
side. The ship grounded heavily, WITH
seas going oyer the starboard side.
There was every prospset Of heavy
westerly swell setting in as the storm
receded. which, should the ship bilge,
would capsize it TO starboard. The Of
ficer, therefore, decided to abandon the
ship. Landing was effected on the
reef by means of d gig. which was
dragged along the reef, over which
progress was made to Cabris Island.
thence. by means of the gig and navy
boat to point where telegraphic COM
munieat.oa was had with the Gov
ernor.
Early the next day the officer in
charge and his detail returned to the
ship and preparations were made TO
get the vessel off. With the assistance
of the Solace this was accomplished,
and the Brutus proceeded to the an
ehorage under its own steam. II was
found that the vessel suffered no seri-
Gus injury.

Rumors were rife yesterday regard
ing the gu frformanee of the 40
rangl. which arrived OF the harDoT
about 10 O'Clock in the morning With
the doctor and pilot, the representa-
tive Of the agents went to the vessel.
Captain Hepworth informed Mr.. Ir-
vine that orders had been received from
the home Office OF the company that the
Aorangi was not to come into Homo
lulu On this trip. bat to lay OF the port
for orders. That is the reason he
stopped.
There was no freight taken at the
Colonies for Hoaolulu and no passen-
gers. As Davies & Co. the agents here.
were unaware of the order. they had
book I'd passengers from here for Vic
toria. and when il was reported
around town that the steamer had
gone on there was a descent made
upon the office to find OUT about things.
Finally. after laying OF outside all
day. it was decided that it was best
for the steamer to take passengers
booked. and 50 about O'Clock the
Aorangi came inside tie three-mile
limit, and Captain Hepworth entered
her in due form. The tug which was
chartered by Davies & Co. took several
people ont 10 the vessel and brought
two cabin passengers back, who had
become entranced with tAe ecenery
while the Aorangi was describing great
circles outside all day.
The remainder of MacAdoo's min
strel troupe. which are aboard the 40
ranei, viii be landed early this morn

privileges. The Aorangi sails this
morning. The scow taking passengers
to her leaves Pacific Mail wharf at
o'clock AS Captain Hepworth had re-
ceiyad positive orders not to come in
here. the vessel remained outside.
II is not improbable that the COM
pany will discontinue its steamers TO
this port, but no such adviees have
been received by the agents. The rea-
son the Aorangi was told not to stop

SUMMER RESORTS.

ITO the mountains our people in in
creasing numbers yearly look for those
days OF relaxation and recreation nee.
essary to maintain the human ma
chine in fair working oniltion. The
languorous sloth OF the seashore proves
very seductive while II lasts, but
many have decided that the an
nual outing should provide not only
radical change OF air and surround
ings, but also such stimulation OF
tagging energies as will provide Drawn
and ylgor for the return to labor. For
this they urge the mountain climb and
ramble. the baIsam Of the mountain
pines. and the clear. unadultOrated
mountain air.
In this direction the Shasta Route
now affords a wealth OF attractions.
The entire line Of road from Ashland
to Reddlng is studded with charming
and accessible hotels and camps. where
are cheer and comfort and healing at
reasonable cost, and where you can
hunt. fish, ride. loaf. or play with
equal facility
"or II you look for healing waters,
none better can be found, hot or cold,
than the springs OF Ashland. CoIestln,

Tlssoles FAMOUS PAINTINGS.
The Reading Club win Soon Have
Reproductions Of Them.

When the paintings OF Tissot We're
exhibited in Chicago last year. the
rooms of tie Art Institute were packed
to suffocation day after day by crowds
eager to study the. wonderful concep-
tions of the French artist The re-
markable change which came over the
man who had spent a lifetime in paint
ing commonplace scenes, such as
might be expected from Bohemian.
is one OF the romances OF art. The man
was over so years Of age. and the oc-
casion was the church OF ST. Sulpice.
in Paris, whittier the. wording had
gone to study faces OF beautiful wo-
men. There a vison came to the
] painter which transformed him into a
new man, with a new ambition and a
d. new future.
He left Paris on a pilgrimage TO
the Holy Land, where he stu lied with
eager attention every spot associated
with the life of Jesus, and read the
gospel narrative more than 100 times.
He determined to paint the story
Of the career Of the Naza-
rine, giving 1t the exact setting In
which it took place. For ten years
Tissot studied and painted. At last
he placed before the world the result
of his long toil-5OO paintings and
drawings.
When mis- father looked at them he
was amazed to find how wrong his i'm
pressirns had Deen OF the places which
the holy feet had touched. He ex-
claimed: Then / must alter all my
preconceived ideas Of these thingsl

Cavalry, though 1t occupied the sum-
nit OF the city. was, at the most, only
p or q feet high. Your mistake Is
shared by the greater number Of be-
levers; the Christian world has for
long tine past had its Imagination mis-
led by the fancies of painters; and
there is whole stock Of images that
must be driven out Of the mind, be-
fore 1t can be familiarized with no
tiOns that are a little nearer the truth"
The exhibition Of Tissot's work soon
set all Paris in a flame. Such pictures
had never been seen before. In Lon
don a profound impression was made.
New York was also deeply stirred.
Men unaccustOmed TO display of emo
tion stood before the pictures with
the tears coursing down their cheeks.
One can get a better idea of the
topography Of the Holy Land, the ar
the dress, the faces OF
the people, by studying Fissot an hour |
than by reading many books. Leon
ar1o's great painting Of the Last |
Supper" is found TO be seriously at |
fault, when placed by the side Of Tis-
sOts picture Of the same subject. It |
is most interesting to place a Raphael |
or an Angelo or a Hoffman near a
'rissot and note the different concep-
tiOns of the artist.
The Reading Club Of this city has
done a real service to the community
by bringing to the coast collection
Of slides made from the Tissot paint
ings, which will reproduce them In
the original colors. Every art lover
and all who are interested in the study
Of Israels great hero should avail
themselves OF the opportunity Of see
ing these famous pictures at the
Presbyterian church, May 20.
