LURED BY HAWAII MEL.

S. F. Bulletin.--Lured to sea by the
promise of little pleasure jaunt to
Honolulu and instead carried into the
frozen north ON whaling schooner
was the fate of two boys who arrived
on the steamer Lehua this morning
bringing with them tale of hardship,
cruelty and privation.
Six weeks ago Eddie Abrahamson,
who claims to be sixteen years of age
and looks about Is, Ray Busted, aged
eighteen, and two other boys whose
names are not known here, were ap-
preached on the waterfront by a
" crimp" or shipping agent who drew
an alluring picture of the joys of sea
and offered trip to Honolulu on the
Confanza, with all the attendant
pleasures of viewing new worlds in
ease and comfort. Abrahamson, who
1858 O'Farrell street, had been trying,
without success, to find work and final
lily gained his mother s consent. Bust
ed, whose home is in jacksonville,
didn t hesitate long and the other two
boys accepted the offer.
According to their story they suffer
ed terribly from the cold and were un-
derfed and roughly handled by the
captain. At Dutch Harbor they de-
serted the ship and appealed to the
commander of the revenue cutter
Peary, who gave them a trial and al
lowed them to break their contracts.
They were stranded there without
money and food and unable to find
anything to do.
They tried to get passage on the
Homer, but were refused, and finally
appealed to Captain Weber of the sal
mon tender Lehua, owned by Frank
Peterson and carrying supplies be-
tween San Francisco and the salmon
canneries at Naknek. The two were
taken on as workabouts, washing decks
and doing odd jobs and in this way
earned their passage back. The other
two are expected to arrive in week
or so on some similar schooner.
The Confanza is gasoline schooner
fitted for whaling and, in charge of
Captain Mckenzie, went on a whaling
trip to the Herschel Islands up near
