Japanese Fishing Smack Driven
Off Course by Storm.
Five Men Are Picked Up by United
States immigration inspectors
After Being at Sea for
Three Months.

San Diego, Gala story vying with
Homer's famous tale of the wandering
of Odysseus is that told by five Jap
anese fishermen picked up by the
United States immigration inspectors
in southern California. The men were
captured on the road from EnCintas to
Escondido. Their clothing was in
rags and they themselves were weary
and famished. They were taken to Jail
and there, through an Interpreter, told
the history of more than three months
of wandering, beginning with ty-
phoon off the coast of Japan and end
ing with shipwreck near San Diego.
Last May the men put to sea in
their little 50.foot three-masted fish
ing junk Symiyoshi Maru Good Luck
Boat from Yokohama. They we're
headed for Kakodate, 500 miles to the
northward, on fishing trip. The first
day out all went well, but on the next
day a typhoon came up. The junk,
unable to make Roadway, was forced
to run before the wind and was driven
1000 miles to the southwark. When
the wind subsidized the boat was found
to be badly damaged and the steering
gear demolished, making her unman-
ageable.
There was nothing for 1t but to drift
and sail as best they might, trusting
to their good fortune to bring them
safe to port. The first land they
| sighted was Honolulu. but the wind
changed as they neared that port and
they were driven 100 miles farther
south. They sent distress signals, but
no ships passed to notice them.
A crude compass, such as is used by
the primitive sailors of the Japanese
| islands, was their only means of dis
! covering their heading. Two weeks
out their supply of water was ex-
| hausted and they were just beginning
TO suffer the agonies of thirst when
| tropical rainstorm burst. Rushing on
deck they placed buckets to catch the
fall and secured enough for few
days, renewing the supply from time
to time in the same manner.
1t was not long afterward when
| their food gave out. In the extremi-
! ties of hunger they ate the spare sails,
composed of grass mating, and their
straw sandals. Down across the
equator they sailed, past the Christ
mas islands and then northward again,
toward Central America. Then they
were blown out to sea again, just as
they sighted land.
More than month ago they passed
the Galapagos islands, fast In the grip
OF the wind. Aimlessly they drifted
