Of Captain p. A. Doran, the commander
OF the steamer Columbia which went
down off the Pacific Coast with nearly
three score OF lives, said that the death

Leo Crowley, third pantryman on the
Columbia, who arrived from Eureka this
morning on the Pomona, made the fol-
lowing statements
Il was asleep in my quarters in the
glory hole when the shock came All
the employees in the stcwafF- depart
ment woke up at this time and We came
to the conclusion that the ship had
grounded on a rock. As ii was not
thought that there would be any imme-
diate danger, We decided that we would
not dress and 90 on deck. Some Of the
walters turned over and were preparing
TO 90 to sleep again when we heard the
captains voice shouting on deck, and
later, at the head Of our quarters.
"All hands on deck and cut away the
boats!"
Then we realized that the ship was in
danger, and got into what clothes we
could and scrambled 'on deck. On the
way up came upon little boy about 4
years old trying to climb the cabin
stairs and picked him up, carrying him
up on deck with me. As soon as | got
there man rushed up to me, grabbed
the child out Of my arms and shouted
excitelly:
"What are you doing with my
childr | never saw the man nor the
child after, and | think they were both
| lost.

staining about amidships preparing to
take a hand in the lowering Of the
boats when the ship lurched violently,

the bow suddenly dipped with a rolling
motion, the stern going 30 or 40 feet
into the air. Then she plunged straight

que ell mundo i la tristeza Sc consagre.
que sc convierta en- negro hasta ell almagre
y que la gracia perseguida emigre.
Pretender que la risa Sc denicre
que Sc ensalce ell gesto de vinagre,
quede para el ruin que tenga sangre
alma de cuervo condici6n de tigre.
Por vuestro triup pfo con III gc"'0 Glcgr'
de que de todo coraz6n me allegro,
un APPLAUSE enthusiastic aqui os consagro.
Ben haya todo aquel que nos reinterre
la algeria en- un tempo triste negro
en- que podcr reirse es un milagrol
