Seattle, Dec 12.-The Alaska Steam
ship company's steamer Olympia was
wrecked on Bligh island reef, 40 miles
from Cordova, Alaska, early yesterday
morning, according to a brief message
from the company's agent at Valdez
Alaska.
A message sent at 10 o'clock yester-
day morning said: All hands on deck.
This is taken as indicating that the
passengers and crew were preparing
to take to the boats.
Strikes UnIighted Reef.
The BIgh island reef where the
Olympia struck, is unlighted. Three
Alaska liners have been wrecked with
in a radius of so miles of the point
where the Olympia struck
1t had already called at Cordova and,
as only few of the passengers were
bound for ports west Of there, it is
probable that not more than a dozen
passengers were aboard the vessel
when it struck.
The Olympia sailed from Seattle
Dec. with 26 passengers and several
hundred tons of freight.
Passengers Twice Wrecked.
Passengers on the Olympia first sail
ed on the steamship Northwestern,
which grounded in False bay, San Juan
island, early in the morning of Dec. .,
a few hours after sailing from Seattle
for the north. The Northwestern's
passengers were brought back TO Sc
attic and resumed their journey on the
Olympia, which was hurriedly put into
commission

The small white horses of the Ca
margue (delta of the Rhone), now in
number some 1000 only, wander
about the seemingly boundless steppes
at full liberty. They are captured
from time to time and used to thresh
the corn. They are supposed to have
been first introduced by the Romans
and afterward by the Saracens.
But according to NJ. Huzzard,
whatever their origin, whether for
eign or native, the horses of the
CamargUe to-day are the product al.
most exclusively of the influences of
the environment in which they have
propagated from time immemorial."
NJ. Gayot describes the horse of the
Camargue as small agile, good-tem-
pered spirited, courageous. In the
opinion of Prof. Magne, the horse of
the Camargue must live in a wild
state, and the first effect of improv-
ing the sanitation Of the island will be
the disappearance of its horses.-
