Dense Fog at Time Of Accident
No Panic---Cargo Saved
Kamm a Passenger.

The steamer Lurline is lying on the
beach near Waterford, Washington, 30
.miies up the river. as the result OF a
dense fog, conflicting currents and a
Jutting rock.
The vessel was enroute for this city
from Portland. from which place she
left Saturday night at 10 o'clock. The
trip was made in safety TO opposite
Waterford. though the fog that pre-
vailed necessitated slow progress, when
at o'clock Sunday morning the
steamer. without warning, struck a
rock and began TO hll slowly. BY skill
full maneuvering the pilot. Kane olney.
succeeded In bleaching the steamer, her
bow up stream and well out Of the
water. 30 that the passengers, about
so in number. were able to step
ashore dry shod with their baggage.
When the accident occurred the offic-
ers Immediately appraised the passen-
gers OF what had occurred, at the
Same time warning them to be calm as
there was no real danger. In spite Of
this. however two men leaped over
board. one OF them II is said carrying
an oyercoat on one arm and whiskey
jug under the other. 1t Is not report
ed whether the jug was eventually
saved or not.but both men reached
shore safely. The only time anything
like panic took place was when the
boat after being heached, tipped sud
denly entirely submerging the star
board side. Then few OF the women
who had not yet gotten ashore became
somewhat hysterical. one young lady in
particular crying out for some one to
save her mother. These, however,
were soon calmed and no further Incl
dent occurred TO mar the order and
general harmony OF the occasion. If
the lines which hold the vessel TO the
shore continue firm there will be little
difficulty In removing the steamer from
her perious position. Barges are al
ready on the scene and 1t Is expected
that today the injured boat will be
noated to place of safety to undergo
repairs Just what repairs will be
needed or to what amount the damage
might accrue cannot be stated until
further investigation.
The passengers were brought Into
this city on the noon train and Captain
Kamm who was among them left inn

A sacred Chinese Coin.

One of the coins OF the Chinese En-"
peror Kanghi is very, much sought aft
pr by the Chinese, who use it In max
ing rings for the finger. 1t is slightly
different from the other cash issued
nnder the same emperor in the form OF
pne of the characters that indicate the
regnal period. The Chinese call 1t 10
han cash." the word Lo-han being a
transcript in Chinese characters Of the
Eanskrit word Arhan, venerable"
The name applied to the eighteen at
lendants Of Buddha, who are frequent
~ seen ranged along the two sides Of
the principal halls in Buddhist tenn
pies.
The tradition is that while the en-
peror was intimately associated with
European missionaries he became i'm
bued with a feeling Of contempt for
Buddhism and illustrated this phase
pf his faith by having a set of eighteen
brass Lo-han images melted down and
east into cash. This brass is said to
Pontain q considerable portion Of gold;
hence the demand for the cash. Il ST.
