Story of How Seaman Now in Port
Won Gold Medal for Bravery.
Danish Steamers to Arrive This
Near-Of Interest to shippers and
Mariners.
Chief officer Spicer of the British
steamship, st. Dunstan, loading cotton
at the Central Railroad wharf, tells
in the port of Rangoon, Burma, in
1879. Mr.. Spicer was then second mate
of the large English clipper ship Mar
pesia- This vessel had just arrived
at RangOon to load rice, having gone
to Calcutta from Australia with a
cargo of horses for the British govern
ment.
While the Marpesia was waiting to
be docked at Rangoon for cargo a
general alarm was sent out from the
military garrison there that King
Amandalay, with his tribe of Mussel
men, was coming down to attack the
city. and possibly to burn it. Col. Coch
ran of the British forces there. fearing
that he had not sufficient men to re-
pulse the King, called on the sailors
on all vessels in the harbor for as
sistance. Mr. Spicer, a graduate of
the military university of Aldeshot,
promptly responded and quickly got
together $50 men from English and
American vessels. He marched them
up to the armory at Rangoon, supplied
them with arms and ammunition, and
leading them went out TO await the ar
rival of the King and his tribe who
We're then about ten miles from the
town.
About 4 o'clock in the morning the
opposing forces met in a valley and
opened fire on each other. Chief Of
ficer Spicer states that his men
slaughtered ATS men on the field.
In the fight Spicer lost from eigh-
teen to twenty men, the small loss on
his side being due to the repeating
guns used as against bolos and arrows
on the opposing side. Meantime, as
sistance came from the main garrison,
which gave relief to the small COM
pany of volunteers. For this bravery
On the part of Spicer he was award
ed a medal by Queen Victoria. He
now ranks as Second Lieutenant of
the British Naval Reserves

The number of arrivals, of Danish
steamers at Savannah of late indi-
Gates that there is d probability of
large development in this branch Of
local shipping. During 1902 there were
eight arrivals, and so far in 1908
there have been two arrivals, one of
which, the steamship Dania, is still
in port. Previous to 1902 there were
about two arrivals of Danish vessels
every three years. The increase in
the number of arrivals of these steam
ers is largely due to the recent visit
of an agent of the Danish owners,
who found the local field an inviting
one. The result was steamers were sent
here. and all sailed with good size
cargoes They are all new and mod
ern built boats, of large carrying
capacity Mr.. ]. b. Hoist, Danish
Consul at Savannah. has been large
ly instrumental in inducing owners to

MORE ELEPHANT TROUBLE.

Atlanta News: 1t is probable that
an inquiry will be made as to how the
new elephant at Grant Park, secured
the name of Maude, as printed in the
Atlanta Journal Saturday afternoon.
Commissioners Woodward and Jerome
Jones, members of the park board, do
not know anything of the naming of
the beast, and it is probable they will
ask for an inquiry, as each desires to
have a hand in the naming of the pet
that was secured by popular subscrip-
ton for the children of Atlanta. There
has been no meeting of the Board of
Park Commissioners lately, and moth
ing has been done officially relative
to the naming of the elephant.
