CRUSHED BETWEEN
SHIP And DOCK
PASSENGER ON ROSE CITY
MEETS AWFUL MISCHANCE
NIcoMEDIA IN FROM CHINA
LONG LIST OF MARINE
ITEMS.

AS a result of a reckless attempt TO
board the steamship Rose City as she
was getting underway for Portland at
8 o'clock yesterday afternoon, John
N. Stadmen, second cabin passen-
ger. lies crushed and dishgured at
ST. Mary's hospital in this city, un-
der the professional care of Dr. ]. A.
Fulton, who declares the man to be
in very dangerous condition. Stad-
men and a fellow traveller had been
Up in the city on a sightseeing tour
during the three-hour stay OF the
steamer at the o. R. & N. piers here,
and as they hurried back in obedience
to her departure whistle, found them
selves all but left. They broke into
a run, and as the ship was moving out
from the docks sought the nearest
point Of contact, which happened to
be the stern which was close in as
the bows swung out into the chan
mel. Stadmen's friend made flying
leap and landed securely on the quar-
ter deck, but Stadmen climbed on the
heavy nest of dolphin at the north
west corner of the dock, and as she
got we'll in tried to reach her with
his hands, missed her, and fell off the
dolphins, lodging square1y on heavy
rope-fender which was outboard at
that point. The great ship caught
him and rolled him around the face OF
the dolphins and when he had passed
through the ordeal of the awful jam,
it was seen that he had death-grip
on the line from which the big fender
was suspended. This was quickly
hauled on board with Stadmen hold
ing braveIy on and in moment more
he was tenderly lifted over the rail
and laid on the deck while "all hands"
did what first occurred to them by way
of "6rst aid," fans, freshwater, etc,
etc.
Capatin Kidston had the steamer
lined up in her course up the bay by
this time. and when the case was re-
ported him, he brought her to a
standstill and blew a signal for a
shore launch but as this was not an
swered at once he "wore ship" and
headed back to the dock. AS
headed down stream, Captain Keating
met him with "Pilot No. D." and run
ming alongside the big liner, he was
charged to take the injured man
ashore and turn him over to Agent
Geo. w. Roberts, the companys rep
resentative here. As the Pilot ranged
alongside the dock Mr.. Roberts sent
in a hurry call for the hospital ambu-
lance and it was soon on the dock
In the meantime, Stadmen, who was
living on stretcher on the root OF
the Pilots engine rom, had asked
for the fraternal attendance OF a
Forester" and the word being pass
ed in the crowd, Frank Hart, the well
known druggist, stepped on board the
Pilot and bent over the injured man.
with kindly assurances Of assistance
The hurt man gave his name, that he
hailed from Sonoma, and his home as
Mayheld, California, and begged that
a telegram be sent at once to Richaro
Bosworth at No. 8l2 Marshall street
Portland, and that letter be sent to
Ernest Klevesahl, at Mayheld, but
that care be taken that no word
should be sent to his mother also at
Mayheld, as her health was precarious

and he feared the shock to her.
Stadmen seemed to be perfectly ra-
tional and bore no sign OF his fearful
grinding, save that his face was
frightiully congested with blood forc-
ed there by the impact; he COM
planned OF his back, but had free use
of his hands, legs and feet; his eyes
being swollen shut by the deluge OF
blood in the head He made known
his fraternal affiliation with Court
Number 1922, Foresters of Am
erica, OF Sonoma, Cal, and was
glad that he had fallen into good
hands here so quickly He was plac-
ed in the ambulance and slowly driven
to St. Mary's hospital where the good
sisters, with DR.. Fulton, at once did
everything possible to bring him COM
fort. Stadmen's injuries are all, ap-
parently, between his neck and hips
his collarbone is broken, as are sew
eral lower ribs, close in to the spine
and his back is badly wrenched. Just
what serious internal injury he had re-
ceived must be ascertained by direct
and prolonged examination; but what
may develop from that, will not alter
the fact that he is badly hurt and
marvelously short of mortal acci-
dent. He is a we'll built man OF about
40 or As years, pleasant-faced and evi-
IDENTIFY used to hard work in the open
air; he had letters and papers on his
person that indicated good standing
and pleasant social relations and S35
in coin. After he had been put to
bed at St. Mary's he seemed to sink
into semi-unconsciousness and little
or no further information could be
secured from him. Mr.. Hart saw to
the correspondence by wire and let
ter, asked for by Stadmen, and his
friends at home, in Portland, and in
Court No. 8, Foresters OF America, OF
this city, will see to it, that everything
possible is done for him in any issue
of his dreadful accident.

THE GREAT AMERICAN Play
"PAID IN FULL"

On the stage Of the Willis Wood on
the night of Oct. II, will be given
Wagenthals and Kemper's great play
of present day life in America, by
Eugene Walter, paid In Full"
Breathing strength in every line this
play is SO unquestionably out OF the
ordinary that 1t seems safe to predict
a most roseate future for 1t. For a
decade now 1t has been the custom
TO write the so-called American play
either in the tortuous valleys OF the
west or in the drawing rooms OF the
effete east, but not in this instance.
Mr.. Walter has taken as his central
figures the men and women OF every
day America and they are spontane-
ously wholesome figures, too, not mere
mannikins jumping at the pulling OF
n string. There is life, full-blooded,
yirile life in all Of them, life we
must needs recognize and appreciate
and stalk with throughout all time.
There Is q refreshing treatment OF
social characters. Messrs. Wagenthals
and Kemper have secured an extra
ordinarily brilliant cast Of players.
paid in Full" has to ats credit a
Eve months run at the Grand Opera
House, Chicago, and is now in its
second season at the Aston Theatre,
New York, where 1t will continue In
definitely.
One morning shortly after the hon
eymoon a determined wife took her
seat at the breakfast table and placed
a large revolver by the side OF her
plate. "W-why, my DEAR" stammer-
ed the astonished husband, "w-what
does that mean?"
cit means, my love-" was her stern
reply that we have bread Of my own
making for breakfast, and that no i'd
verse criticism will be tolerated"
