SOUTH SEA TRAMPS' WHARF
Strange Sights That May Be Seen
On the Old Meigg Pier In
San Francisco.

when old Henry Meigg built the
long pier that juts out from the foot
Of Telegraph Hill in San Francisco,
remarked the Californian, "he proba-
bly, didn't guess that it was destined
to become the most picturesque wharf
in the country. He intended 1t to &C.
commodate his own line Of steamers,
but in later years he settled In Peru
and the wharf fell into other hands.
while retaining his name, it be-
gan to take on a peculiar character.
1t is nearer to the Golden Gate than
any other pier in San Francisco har-
bor and the South Sea tramps found
1t convenient to dock there. Their
patronage became SO important that
in time it was entirely given over to
them and to the other rovers Of the
sea that drift into San Francisco from
the ports of ali the world
And so it is that you can go down
to Meigg's Wharf any afternoon,
when the trade wind is blowing from
the Pacific. and watch brown Kanaka
sailors loafing on the decks Of boats
that reek of cocoanut oil and strange
spice odors. And you can see copra
being unloaded, and SHELF and other
products of Polynesia. Or you may
chance to find an old-fashioned square
rigger in port that has been three
months or more coming from New
York, by way of the Horn. These
boats have no schedules. No one
knows when they will drift in through
the Golden Gate and pause for a
short while under the lee of Tele-
graph Hill.
"Meiggs Wharf also has the repu-
tation Of being the starting point for
filibustering expeditions to the Latin
American republics, and is always
closely watched for smugglers."
