Hawk Far at Sea.

Three days out from HfIo hawk
aiighted on the four-masted bark Fails
of the Clyde, carrying cargo of sugar,
according to the story of Captain Mat
son in the San Francisco Call. He re-
ports a fine trip except for three hoo
docs. The ship sailed on Friday, it
carried thirteen passengers, and tine
hawk disappeared.
How the bird got so far out to sea
is mystery" says Captain Matson.
I'VE were all of seven hundred miles
from land, and that is a long fly even
for a hawk. When the sailors saw
the bird they felt better and said it had
been sent to take away the hoodoo.
For four days the bird stayed around,
and during that time I never had bet
ter sailing weather in my life Every
stitch of canvas drew, and for ninety
four hours the men never took pull
on brace.
Then one night the hawk disappear
ed, and for a week we had battling
winds that would have made a saint
swear. What became of the bird is a
mystery, but maybe he flew to some
other vessel of the sugar fleet.
With the disappearance of the hawk
all the mems superstitions came back,
but everything moved along quietly I'M
til Saturday night, when a gale came
up in few minutes. A big sea flooded
the decks.
Before the men could get hold of
the braces the pressure of the sail
broke the foretopgallant yard in the
sling, one of the lower topsails split, a
jib was blown out of the bolt ropes, and
I was nearly washed out of the jigger
rigging.

light when the wave climbed around
me and gave me a soaking from which
my clothes are still wet. 1t blew so
hard that under topsails we were max
ing ten knots, so I had to heave the
ship to and wait for morning. The men
are satisfied now. They knew that
three hoodoos meant some mishap, and
Saturday nights breeze has convinced
them they were right"

Of the city Jail for men enough to take

The schooner Blanche and Ella. which
figured in the collision at Kauai on
Thursday night, arrived in port yester-
day morning. The Blanche and Ella is
not very badly damaged A new piece
will have to be put in her cutwater and
five massive bolts will be put through
the thick end of her bowsprit, which has
been cracked. Peter Baron has charge
of the repairs and was working on her
yesterday.
It is hard to tell just how the collision
took place, as the story of Captain Kaai-
ma of the Blanche and Ella leaves sever
al important points to be explained He
states that the collision with the Ada
took place on Thursday night at about
2 o'clock. There was moderate easter
ly breeze. and the Blanche and Ella was
holding a northeasterly course, when a
Japanese sailor sang out to the second
mate that he could see red light to the
starboard side. The captain states that
he himself also saw the red light, but
that he was unable to see whether 1t
was going further away or coming near
er, before just when the collision occur
red. He says that the presence of red
light bewildered him, as vessel going
south should have shown green light
to the Blanche and Ella
1t is here the story gets uncertain. If
the Ada was going south, that is in
nearly the opposite direction of the
Blanche and Ella, which was going
northeast, the Ada would have been on
the starboard side, which should show
green light toward the Blanche and
Ella, as she was farther out from the
land than the other boat, Thus the only
explanation in that case must be that
the crew of the Ada had made mis-
take in placing their lights, and had the
green light on the port side and the red
light on the starboard side.
The statement of the captain of the
Blanche and Ella, that he was not able
to see whether the Eight was coming
nearer or was going away, leaves room
for the doubt. however that the Ada
was going north. If the Ada carried the
right lights, the collision can be explain
~ W ARCA SOAAil4IS 11oIII SOuLil OF TIC
southeast, in which case she would have
shown her port side with the red light
to the Blanche and Ella, and the collision
would have occurred when the two yes
sells, which were both sailing north, but
at different angle, met in the apex of
that angle.
Manager Lansing states that he as yet /
is not able 10 say just how the collision |
occurred, as he has not yet heard FROM
the captain of the Ada, which is now at
as her captain was afraid that |
the schooner, which was badly strained, |
might get to leaking, while crossing the !
channel. Besides this. her foresafI is |
torn, as the bowsprit of the Blanche and |

also broken.
