reef And yet such was the spirit Of
these sailors battling for their lives
against such overwhelming odds, that
when the British ship Calliope steam
ed past them bound for the open sea,
and safety, they gave her rousing
cheer.
About five o'clock, as the light was
beginning to fade, the crowd on the
shore saw the Trenton bearing down
upon the Vandalia. It seemed CO..
tain that the big bulk of the bagship
would crush the stranded vessel to
pieces and send the hundred men still
cinging to the rigging to their death.
To the Vandal!a's crew II seemed as
If death itself were bearing down on
them-and they watched with strained
fearful eyes the approach Of the Tren-
ton.
Suddenly a shout was borne across
the waters. The Trenton was cfeer.
ing the Vandalia. The sound Of 400
voices broke upon the air and was
heard above the roar OF the tempest.
Three cheers for the Vsnda'ia!"
was the cry that warmed the hearts
of the doomed men in the rigging.
The shout died away and there arose
from the quivertng masts Of the
stricken ship response so feeble
that 1t was scarcely heard on shore.
The men who were looking death in
the face had aroused themselves to
the effort and united in faint cheer.
Those who were standing on shore
were appalled, by the scene and lis.

dest cry they had ever heard
The sound of music next came

The hundreds of men on sea and
shore were thrilled by the beautiful
strains of music coming from must

On shore, men who had stood mac

struggle, inspired anew by this splen-

A THRILLING INST NCE OF
COURAGE AND ENDURANCE

Twenty-four years ago the civilize,
world was startled and thrilled witt
the news that 142 brave oficers ant
men of German and American war
ships had lost their lives in the lit
tie harbor of Apia, Samoa. They died
under circumstances that brought
forth the highest quality OF heroism
and GOODNESS in the face of deadly
peril.
A typhoon Of unusual violence de-
stroyed six German and American
warships and ten other vessels. They
were torn from their anchorage and
cast one by one on the coral reefs
or on the beach The Calliope, a Brit
ish man-of.war, was the only one
that escaped to the open sea. The
gunboat Eber was the first OF the
German ships to founder. 1t struck
a reef with such force that 1t was lit.
orally broken in pieces and but one
officer and a few men reached the
shore.
The American warships were the
Nipsic, the Vandalia and the flag
ship, Trenton, under command Of Ad-
miral Kimberley. The Nipsic sue
ceeded in avoiding the rocks and was
finally beached. The Vabdalia was
carried before the gale and struck
a reef with terrific force. The sea
washed over her decks with such fury
that the men were forced into the
rigging where they chung for hours,
weary and exhausted, facing death
while their sturdy little vessel bat
tied with the reef below them.
Theis captain, c. N. Schoonover,
remained Oh the deck, too weak to 90
sloft. He had been injured earlier
in the day, but insisted upon COM
mSnding his ship. AS he grew weak
CT under the stress and strain of the
storm he was supported by his first
officer, Brown, the only other man on
deck. The two were clinging to the
raj, the younger man with his arm
around his Captain, when giant
wave loosened one of the ships land.
ing guns and swept it across the
deck into the sea-and with It wd
the brave Captain.
Brown was saved; and weak and
exhausted, he climbed into the rig
ging where he was grasped and sup
ported by sailors.
Meanwhile helpless crowds gather
ed on the shore, for 1t was imposs BILE
to launch a boat or to reach the dis
tressed ships. Many Of the natives
plunged into a surf that no ordinary
man could live in for a moment, and
assisted many struggling sailors to
the shore.
That these white men were their
enemies-that they had faced some
of the Germans in battle on the pre-.
vious day-all was forgotten now.
Their sole desire was to save these
brave men from watery grave-and |
many were the bodies they pulled |
out of the foaming surf, and many
were the lives saved by these daring
Samoans.
Meanwhile, the Trenton, by skillful
navigating, had been kept from the
rocks all through the day.
More than once 1t seemed certain
that the and was at hand. Rudderless
and propellerless the ship was drift.
ing broadside upon reef. The com.
mander, realizing the great peril,
took prompt action-what seemed to
be an almost hopeless chance. He
ordered every sailor to man the yards.
Without the slightest hesitation the
men climbed into the swaying rigging
and out onto the yardarms. There
they chung IN utter defiance of the
rolling plunging ship and of the fury
OF the wind and storm. The com.

WHY INTERrERE:

rs 1T NOT possible that the klam-
! ath Chamber of Commerce is
making a mistake In its contemplated
action OF furnishing unsolicited ad-
vice to the interior department rela-
tive to conditions under the govern.
ment irrigation project in klamath
county!
There has been a feeling on the
part OF the farmers Of the county in
the past that citizens OF klamath
Falls were sometimes too active In
Interfering In matters which partie-
ulariy concerned the land owners,
aud which they felt they we're amply
capable Of handling themselves. I'm
questionably the motive Of the Cham
Der OF Commerce is good. but Il might
be well to first consult the farmers as
TO their wishes In the matter before
taking any arbitrary action.
The farmers under the government
project have an ofiiciai organization.
which Is well oiYiccred by capable
men. These men are In the closest
possible touch with the individual
farmers and the actual conditions on
the project. The president OF this
association made a special trip to
Washington as oficiai representative
OF the farmers. where he appeared
before the secretary Of the interior
and 4 committee from congress. In
addition. during the recent visit OF
Assistant Secretary Miller. the farm
ers were given a public hearing. and
were permitted to tell OF their needs.
II would seem that the secretary must
have secured the correct Information.
a. the farmers themselves know the
atcuai conditions better than can any
outsider.
In addition TO Mr.. Miiier's visit.
Mr.. Ryan. special representative Of
Secretary Lane. made thorough and
personal investigation. He visited
the homes and talked to the farmers,
and saw the men at work In the
fields. Undoubtedly Mr.. Ryan al.
ready knows more about the actual
conditions than any citizen In Klam-
a.h Falls. so any farther unsolicited
information would probably do more
harm than good.

MeARTHUR FOR CONGRESS-

A ccoRDING to announcement
"A made In Portland this week.
Congressman A. W. Larerty will have
4 contestant for the republican nomi-
nation In the Third district In the
person OF Hon. c. N. Macarthur. the
speaker Of tho house at the last ses-
sion Of the legislature.
This announcement does not come
altogether as surprise TO the friends
OF Pat" Macarthur throughout the
state, although his many friends and
supporters outside OF Multnomah
county had hoped that he would con-
sent TO make the race for governor.
There Is little doubt but that Nc
Arthur could have received the repub-
lican nomination for governor had he
decided TO make the race. He Ia
closer 10 the common people than any
OF the prospective candidates men,
toned. and In more widely and favor
ably known In the state.
Although a young man. Pat Nc
Arthur has been before the public
eye OF the state for a comparatively
long time-a SUFFICIENT length OF time
for the people TO have judged Of
his merits and demerits--and even
among those who differ with him po-
liticaliy, IL is acknowledged that his
success has been gained by his nat
ural ability. combined with perfect
honesty.
Those who have been closely asso-
ciated with Mr.. Macarthur know him
to be man absolutely fair and
square In all his dealings. political or
otherwise. Forty or more strenuous
days OF legislating will expose to the
public the weakness Of any human
being. and the fact that he has filled
the chair Of speaker for two terms
and came out stronger and more
highly respected each time. is proof
that he is man whom the people
can trust In the conduct OF their busi-
ness. II more men Of this class were
elected to ONCE there would be q
higher respect felt for our public ON
cials.
As result Of his decision Oregon
loses most able governor for the
next term. but by his election TO con-
gress the state will be the gamer by a
strong and capable representative at
the national capital.
