BEACHED THE STEAMER.
Herbert Jacobs Has Exciting Expe-
rience on the Lakes.

In letter to home folks, Herbert
Jacobs tells of the Bleaching of the
steamer Illinois, notice Of which ap-
peared in the REFLECTOR. He board
ed the boat at Bay View on Aug. %
for Ludington and Herbert says: Gas
we were going into the harbor at
Charlevoix about 7 o'clock in the eve
ming we met sailboat which was
trying to make the harbor ahead Of
us. Our pilot, instead of letting it
90 ahead, tried to beat it and saw
when it was too late that he couldn't
and to save the boat from hitting the
pier he had to beach it. They got
three tugs and another boat, the Mis-
souri,, to try to pull us off but the sea
was so heavy they could not get us off
and the storm came up and beat
against us, something awful. About
l o'clock it got so bad that they were
afraid the boat would turn over on its
side so the U. S. Life Saving crew
to take the people on.
The rolling of the boat made about
everyone sick (me included) and a
sicker lot you never saw. There were
about $50 passengers on and it took
until Z O'Clock Monday morning to
get them off. They are now trying
10 get the boat off the sand but they
ire not making much Roadway. The
steamboat company has furnished me
i railroad ticket to Ludington and |
cave for there this afternoon. will
cave there Thursday evening for
Chicago and leave Chicago Saturday
