DISABLED LINER TOWED IN.
Steamer Arapahoe, Damaged by
Storm, at Newport News for Repairs.

NORFOLK, Va, October 23.-Towed
by the coast guard cutters Seminole
and Tampa and conveyed by the new
Mallory line steamer Henry r. NAL
lory, the Clyde line steamer Arapahoe
passed in the Virginia capes yester-
day afternoon and last night was
towed to Newport News for repairs.
The only damage to the Arapahoe. ac-
cording to the reports of agents, is the
loss of her rudder in the severe storm
off Hatteras last Thursday.
A number of the passengers of the
Arapahoe were landed at Old Point
Comfort, from which point they will
proceed to their destinations by other
boat lines and by rail Those seen de-
clared that with exception of seasick-
ness and a general shaking up during
the storm, none had experienced any
hardships or danger so far as they were
aware. In fact, it was freely admitted
that but for the fact that they were
unable to proceed for a time and finally
had to be taken in tow by the cutters,
they would not have known that the
ship had suffered from an accident.

SHORT SUPPLY OF OYSTERS.
Only One Cargo at Wharf to Meet
Sunday Demand.

There was a shortage in oysters at the
wharf market yesterday when the Sunday
visitors arrived. as usual, and many went
home disappointed in their expectations
Of an oyster feast. In spite of the fact
that there are fifteen or more boats down
river after oysters for this market, only
one arrived yesterday in time to meet the
Sunday demand. The schooner Willie
Clarence. with about 400 bushels aboard,
was the vessel in port and she came into
the dockN about noon. The demand for
the stock she brought was brisk, and her
master was able to sell at from 20 cents
to 81 a bushel, the best price obtained for
Potomac oysters this season. About dark
another oyster boat arrived and the deal
ers are confident that there will be
good supply on hand by this evening.
The difficulty in obtaining cargoes is
said to be the cause of the slow arrival
of the oyster-running vessels.

S1AGE-STRUCK GIRLS.
By Frederic J. Haskin.

NEW YORK. October 17-I4ast sum-
pler a we'll known actress came upon a
young girl sobbing bitterly in the ladies'
room, OF big New York hotel Per-
ceivins that the girl was actually dis
tressed, the actress approached her.
You're making your nose ali red, child
she said. applying large dabs of powder
10 her own celebrated nose: do tell me
what is the matter Thus persuaded.
the girl explained her tears.
She was the daughter of weli-to-do
parents in Il southern city. She wanted
TO go OF the stage. but they had stub
| borniy opposed it. so she had saved up
her allowance and run away from home.
A girl friend of hers had obtained a
| small part in a musical comedy on Broad
way the year before, and ii was to
her that the girl wrote her plans Of
coming to New York. asking the friend
TO meet her She had arrived that~norn-
ing. but the friend had failed to material
ize, and upon inquiring at the theater the
young girl found that she had departed
the week before with road company.
A irifie discouraged. but still deter
mired, the girl started out with her suit
case to loca te a boarding school acquaint
ance who lived on Riverside drive. She
found the house closed for the summer.
About this time she also discovered that
her pockethook was open and all nef
money gone. After that, she told the
actress. she walked frantically about the
streets of the city, trying to think of
something to do, until finally the name
Of a particular hotel attracted her at
tention. 1t was the one at which her
father stopped when he made his bust
ness trips to New York. Ii occurred 10
her that if she went in there and told Ter
troubles to the manager he might tele
graph her father for her. Once inside
the hotel. however, she found that she
could not control her tears, so she had
led to the dressing room.
"How long does it take you to reach
your city from here?' asked the actress,
when the girl had finished.
.Six hours. replied the girl.
The actress did some rapid calculat-
ing If the girl could catch a train
about o'clock she would be home by
Z, and her folks would never know that
she had run away
Il am going to lend you the money
to get home. she told the girl finally.
80 that your folks won't know how
much you hurt them. and when you,
once get home-stay home"
