FATE OF A HNL FLEET
ANDRADA, AXDLAXA AXD AND
R.INATVIFED OUT OF EXISTENCE.
Ten French Ships Xovr Headed for
Portland Deutiichlnnd Breaks
. Trans-Atlantic Record.
Advices from Punta Arenas, under date
of April 26. report that salvors have given
up Che work of saving the British ship
Andrlna, on account of the enormous au
licultles attached to the undertaking. It
-was also stated that the goods which had
been landed from th ship had been taken
to Rio Gallegos, where they were to be
sold at auction April 30, at which time all
that was left of the wreck would be sold.
If there Is anything superstitious In the
make-up of Messrs. E. F. &. "W. Roberts,
owners of the Andrlna, Andelana, An
drada, Andola, Andorinha and a number
of other vessels bearing similar names,
they must be appalled by the experience
of their ships In the past few years.
Three years ago no finer quartet of ships
sailed the ocean than the Andrada. Anda
lena, Andrlna and Andorinha. The first
three were 4000-tonncrs, and the Andorinha
had a capacity of 5000 tons. About' three
years ago the Andorinha caught Are In
New York harbor, and was damaged to
the extent of nearly $100,000. She was
condemned and sold, but fell into the
hands of her original owners, and was re
paired, and is still afloat. While she was
undergoing repairs her master. Captain
Starling, was transferred to the Andalena,
and early In 18S9 brought her across from
the Orient to Tacoma. While lying in
the harbor at Tacoma the ship was struck
by a squall and went down so quickly that
Captain Starling and 13 of his crew were
drowned like rate In a trap. The vessel
is still at the bottom of Tacoma harbor,
although many thousands have been spent
in an effort to raise her.
About two months after the loss of thb
Andelana the Andrlna sailed from Ant
werp for San Francisco, and along In
the Summer of 1S99 piled up on the rocky
coast near the entrance of the Straits of
Magellan. The crew escaped from the
Andrlna, but the underwriters dumped
a good many thousand dollars Into the
wreck before they Anally abandoned her,
as stated In the advices Just received.
The last and worst disaster met with by
the Roberts fleet was encountered by the
Andrada, a big four-master, well known
in this port, where she remained at one
time for nearly a year. The Andrada
tailed from Santa Rosalia for Portland
November 12, 1900, and after a fine run of
30 days, picked up Pilot Peter Cordlner off
the mouth of the river late one afternoon.
The tugs were busy with another ship,
and as night was coming on, the vessel
stood off shore and has never been seen
since. One of the worst gales ever known
off the mouth of the river was raging the
night of her disappearance, and It Is sup
posed that she turned turtle and went
down so quickly that none of the CO men on
board had the slightest chance to save
themselves.
Other ships of the line have also been
anything but fortunate, and in 1894 the
Andola, a big four-master, dispatched
from Tacoma by Slbson & Kerr, of this
city, was wrecked off the English coast,
and became a total loss. The Andreta,
a well-known trader out of Portland, on
her last outward trip from this city was
damaged to the extent of several thousand
dollars, while entering a dock at Havre.
Including the Andola and the damage to
the Andorinha, the property loss on the
fleet feince 1894 has been in excess of $500,
000 while over 40 lives were lost on the
Andelana and Andrada.

PLAN OF ENTERTAINMENT
RIVER AND HARBOR MEN WILL
SEE THE VALLEY JUNE 2S.
Following; Day Will Be Devoted to
Lower Columbia Upper River
in Jnly.
The programme for the entertainment
of the river and harbor committee in Ore
gon and the Valley of the Columbia is:
Friday, June 28. Willamette Valley, probably
as far as Corvallls. Up trip by rail and down
trip by boat.
Saturday, June 20 By boat to the mouth of
the Columbia, returning to Portland by rail.
About July 15 Trip to the Upper Columbia
and Snake Rivers as far as Lewlston. Idaho.
The time which the river and harbor
committee will spend in Oregon and the
places to be visited have finally been an
nounced. June 28 will be devoted to the
Willamette Valley and the following day
to the Lower Columbia. The Upper Co
lumbia will not be examined until Chair
man Burton and several of his colleagues
return from Alaska and Puget Sound.
This will be about July 15, at which time
a visit will be paid to Lewlston. Idaho.
This plan is probably as good as any that
could be made, as it will give the commlt-
Monday .(June 10) by letter delivered by Mr.
Tongue. I was compelled to make our arrange
ments without communlcattng with your peo
ple. I trust, however, that the time set apart
(Friday and Saturday, June 28 and 20), will bo
sufficient.
As regards Visiting the Upper Columbia and
Snake Rivers. It is probable that several mem
bers of the committee, including the chairman,
will go over this territory somewhat In detail.
We cannot, howe er, state with certainty
what we can do at present.
There are several matters of Importance about
which I should like to hear from you. What
Is your desire about going to the. mouth of
the Columbia River? Shall we provide a Gov
crnment toat, or do you wish to accompany
us in considerable number, providing a boat
at Portland? We can easily obtain a boat
sufficient for the use of the committee and a
few others. If that arrangement seems desir
able. I beg U. call your attention to the fact that
we shpjld make the examination at low tide.
This occurs on Friday, June 2S, at 4:34 P. M.,
and on Saturday, June- 20, at 5:27 P. M. It
would serm to me best to take a boat and go
down the river, going out to view the Jtty,
then returning to Astoria, and from there, go
ing by rail to Portland. We might stay, over
night at Astoria,
on Friday would seem to make It desirable
that we visit the mouth of the Columbia on
Fr ay and the Willamette Valley on Saturday.
We very much desire to go over a portion of
the Willamette River on a boat, though the
adjacent valleys can probably be viewed ad
vantageously from the railroad train.
Our time will be very fully occupied In Ca'1
fornla, and I do not see that we can leave
there before midnight, Wednesday evening,
reaching Portland, Friday, morning, June 23,
probably half an hour or so before the regular
1 train. It Is extremely desirable that our ar-
SERMON BY A YOUNGSTER
PRIZE
ESSAY ON KINDNESS TO
DUMB ANIMALS.
Donald Morgan, 13 Years Old, Makes
a Plea for the Pigeon and Scores
Certain Sportsmen.
O. R. & N. CO.'S SEASIDE LINER, T. J. POTTER.
The O. R. & N. Co.'s big slde-wheeler T. J. Potter, which will ran on the Ilwaco route this Summer, will be thrown open for
inspection of the public from 3 P. M. to 10 P. M. today at Ash-street Dock. The Potter has been fitted up regardless of ex
pense, and no finer river steamer ever turned a wheel In the West. Her Interior decorations and furnishings are superb, and
form a picture of richness and beauty seldom seen on a steamer. The public are cordially Invited to call and pass judgment
on the craft today, and it la a foregone conclusion that they will be more than satisfied. Beach trips ought to be very at
tractive this oeason, when they can bo made on one of the finest steamers afloat, and It Is certain that nothing to equal the
Potter has ever run on the route.
At the closing meeting of the Stephens'
Addition School Band of Mercy, yesterday
afternoon In Gruner's nail. East Side, the
three prizes offered for the best essays
on dumb animals were awarded. Don
ald MorgaA, aged 13, took the first prize.
There was an unusally large attendance
of bright-faced children, besides visitors.
Miss Ethel Clark, president of the band,
called the meeting to order. Then came
the singing of the Band of Mercy song,
The earlier minimum of- tide ! a"d the reading of the minutes by the
secretary, Edwin Haslom.
After a pleasing programme, consisting
of musical and literary numbers, Miss
Eugenia Kern, who first interested the
children in the subject of dumb animals,
and organized the band, announced that
prizes for essays on dumb animals would
be awarded. The essays were written
some time ago by members of the band,
and examined by Mrs. L. W. Sltton, Mrs.
H. F. Spalding and Mrs. Julia B. Com
stock. Two prizes were at first offered,
the first being a beautiful picture In
brown 'tones, and the second a gray and
white etching. Three essays, written by
Henry Leon Scott, Geneva Bellew and
Donald Morgan, were so close in m.rlt
that the commltte could not decide as to
which were entitled to the prizes.
Following Is the report to Miss Kern of
the committee who examined the essays:
We have taken pleasure in passing Judgment
on the cbmpoaltlons written by members of
your class.
In the one class we find that of Jessie Clop
ton well written and expressed, but hardly
feel that there wa3 originality enough to Justi
fy calling it the best.
Between those of Henry Leon Scott and
Donald Morgan we could not decide, but al
though there are errors in spelling and punc
tuation, the originality and pleasing style of
each, as well as the Interesting story told.
make It seem to us they are equally to be
called the "first."
In the second set, we are decided Geneva
Bellew was entitled to the first, with Francos
Baker and Leonora Makclln very close seconds.
All show the tendency toward kindness for
and protection of 'dumb animals In the hearts
of the children, which Is- most gratifying.
Wc thank your pupils for the pleasure they
have given us In the reading of their papers,
and the knowledge that they love the dear
birus and animals that do eo much to makes
life beautiful.
L. W. SITTON.
HELEN F. SPALDING.
JULIA B. COMSTOCK.
Tho question was settled by reference
to another committee, and the giving of a
third prize.
The prize essays were then read, showing
considerable originality in the composi
tion and style, aside from their general
Interest as stories of animal and bird life.
Mrs. Sltton was to have awarded the
nrlze's. but In her absence. Mrs. Enoch
ing four sides to each trap, and the men putt
a string that Is attached to the trap, and all
four Eldcs fall down, so that the pigeon can
fly anywhere, and then they shoot "at It. It
might happen, by chance, that he kills It, but
nine chances out of ten he wounds It. and
then It might fly two or three xnlloa before It
dies, and then It mjght fall with a broken wing,
and the poor thing will try to fly. but cant;
but what does the civilized sportsman care, so
long as he hits It and It falls at a certain du
itance? They keep on doing that till they get
tired.
I hope you can see what a barbarous sport
this Is to take a live creature out and shoot at
It Just for mere sport. Just place yourself In
the bird's pla?e. How would you like to uave
some cruel-looking men, who say they are civ
ilized, but are worse than Indians, come and
.catch y6u and pen you up and ship you to
'some place, you do not know where, and then
some Sunday come out and put you' In a
queer-shaped pen, and then all of a sudden
have all of the sides fall down; that frightens
you almost to death; then you think you are
free at last, and you start to fly off, when you
hear the report of a gun and you feel a sharp
sting and fall to the hard ground with a broken
wing? Well, that Is Just the flx the poor
pigeon is In. Now. would you call those men
civilized? I assure you I wouldn't. Remem
ber, thl Is only one case.
I hope to see the day when the Humano So
ciety can teach such cruel men that these beau
tiful birds and animals were put hero fo
some useful purpose, and not merely to enable
them to gratify their wanton desire to "kill
something."

More French. Vessels Coming to
Portland for Wheat.
At least 1,000,00!) bushels of Oregon wheat
will go foreign in French vessels during
the season now coming on. there being
French vessels of that capacity already
listed for this port The latest addition
to the list is the French bark Louis Pas
teur, which has been in the grain trade
out of Portland for the past three years,
and sailed from Antwerp Monday on her
third trip In ballast for Portland. Another
Frenchman which has just been added to
the HsC Is the bark Marechal de Villlers,
which is also well known In this port
The Marechal sailed from Cardiff for
Hong Kong January 4, and passed Anjer
April 12, and as soon as she reaches the
Oriental metropolis and finishes discharg
ing, will take on ballast and come across
the Pacific to load wheat at Portland.
This makes a total of 10 or the French
bounty-earners already listed for this port
and the number will probably be increased
as the season progresses. The vessels
already en route and listed are as follows:

BROKE HER RECORD.
Dentschland Crosses Atlantic in
Less Than Five and a Half Days.
PLYMOUTH, June 19. The Hamburg
American line steamer Deutschland ar
rived here at 8:15 today, having broken
her own record. She covered 30S2 miles
in 5 days, 11 hours and 51 minutes, at
an average speed of 23.38 knots per hour,
against 23.36 knots, her best previous rec
ord. Her daily runs were 449, 504, 542, 542,
549 and 460 knots, none of which equals
previous best days' runs. Her best previ
ous day's run, made in August, 1900, was
552 knots.
Captain Alberts, her commander, In
formed a representative of the Associated
Press that he had never said his vessel
would cover the distance Inside of five
days. No special effort to maintain high
speed was made.
The weather on the whole was favorable
to a' fast passage. On the first day out
a light southeast wind was blowing and
the sea was smooth. During the second
day a strong westerly wind blew. The
third day the sea was very rough. For
the rest of the passage fresh winds and
moderate seas prevailed.
The passengers seemed Ignorant of any
attempt at record-breaking.
Grain Ships Reporting.
The chartered fleet which is to. carry
away the 1901 wheat crop from this port
Is already beginning to show up in differ
ent! parts of the world, preparatory to
shaping a course for this city. The Brit
ish ship Thornliebank, en route from
Shields for Santa Rosalia, was spoken
March 30, in latitude 58 south, longitude 76
west. The British ship County of Kin
ross, from New York for Shanghai, and
the German ship Rcnee Rlckmers, from
Philadelphia for Nagasaki, both passed
Anjer prior to June 12. All of these ves
sels are under charter for wheat-loading
at Portland, and will get around about
the time fhe Fall rains set in.

PERSONAL MENTION.
William H. Bumpos, agent of the Louis
ville & Nashville Railroad, Nashville,
Tenn., has been In attendance upon the
National Association of Local Freight
Agents, at Denver, and is extenndlng his
trip to the Pacific Coast He will be in
the city today and visit some of the points
of Interest, and leaves tonight for San
Francisco. He says he likes Portland.
Fred R. Hopkins, whose friends have
missed him "for a week or two," turned
up yesterday, a little bit sunburned, but
looking healthy. He has been away from
Portland four months, spent 10 days in
"gay Paree" and several weeks in sunny
Italy, visiting all the principal cities and
seeing the pope and the King. He was
accompanied by his wife and family, the
latter consisting of an only son. They
reluctantly left London on the great
Derby day by the Oceanic, and that
steamship broke a blade off one of her
propellers when a few days out, and had
to go back to see what was the matter.
They might as well have gone to the
Derby as not, and then Mr. Hopkins
would have added a third to his list of the
greatest things he has ever seen.

ASTORIA, June 19. Arrived 'at 11 A.
Hoqulam is talking of a- $35,000 sewet
1 system.
tee an opportunity to see the food-producing
fields of Western Oregon and the
Inland Empire, and the natural highways
of that commerce the Columbia and Wil
lamette Rivers. The commercial bodies
east of the Cascades, which are co-operating
with Portland to entertain the com
mittee, will be informed of the programme
and asked to send delegates to the Port
land reception. In rcfurn, Portland will
send delegates on the Journey to Lewlston
in the middle of July.
At the meeting of the committee of ar-
I rangements In the Commercial Club yes
terday afternoon, H. M. Cake was elected
chairman, vice Henry Hahn, who has
gone to California, and will be away until
July. E. C. Masten was selected secre
tary, H. C. Breeden treasurer, and Gen
eral C. F. Beebe was appointed the Com
mercial Club's third member of the com
mittee. J. F. Batchelder was elected In
behalf of the Chamber of Commerce. It
was voted to leave the Portland recep
tion to a committee of arrangements and
transportation, with power to appoint a
subcommittee on Invitation. The follow
ing telegram was ordered sent to Chair
man Burton, at San Francisco:
Your letter to Mr. Hahn received. In his
absence, the committee beg to express their
extreme regret that you should have the im
pression of any indifference on our part. We
had thought it was understood that the most
cordial Invitation was to be extended to the
members of your party, through Mr. Tongue,
by telegraph, which was arranged some weeks
ago personally with him, to visit us, giving all
time possible for viewing our country and wa
terways. Our present plan is: Friday, Wil
lamette Valley, rail and boat; Saturday, exam
ination of the lower river and bar, In accord
ance with your letter. This Is In accord with
the wishes of Senator Fulton, representing
Astoria. We have all arrangements made,
boats, special trains, entertainment, etc. As
toria ha? entertainment arrangements com
plete. Owing to the long twilight and smooth
er water later in the afternoon, Saturday is
Just as good as Friday on the lower liver.
We propose to take you down the river by
fast boat, then by cars out on the Jetty; then,
if desired, a lighthouse tender will take the
party seaward, then back to Astoria for din
ner, returning here by special train. The pro
pie of the upper country greatly regret that
you cannot visit them now, but we are advised
that you will do this about the middle of July,
examining waterways, and seeing the wheat
belts. Wc assure you that everything possible
v'U be done for your comfort and Informa
tion; also heartiest welcome from a.11 parts of
the state.
No Indifference in Portland.
The reference to indifference on the part
of Portland is explained in the appended
correspondence. It appears that Portland,
on May 28, extended an Invitation to the
river and harbor committee, through Con
gressman Tongue, to come here. Mr.
Tongue, according to Chairman Burton's
letter, did not deliver the invitation until
June 10. In the meantime Chairman Bur
ton, not having heard from Portland, ar
ranged the itinerary for this section.
Following Is Mr. Tongue's letter, in
which reference is made to "Indifference":
Monterey, June 17. I find It Impossible to In
duce Mr. Burton to take any excursion on Sun
day or to prolong the first stop in Portland.
He will, however, return later with several
other members of the committee, go to The
Dalles and up through Eastern Oregon to Lew
lston. The first visit leaves but two days, one
for the mouth of the Columbia and one for the
Willamette. I am Inclined to think the latter
trip, being the shortest, had better be mado
first, but will confer with Mr. Burton and will
wire you. If, however, breakfast could be
served on the boat, we could go to Astoria
first. It would be best to make that first. If
there is time, as the change from train to
boat will be restful.
Mr. Burton is anxious to make part of thn
Valley trip on the Willamette River. Could
we take a special train, make flve-mlnute stops
at HUlsboro. McMInnvllle, Independence, lunch
at Corvallls, then at Salem take a boat on
the river for Portland? I think that could be
done, I have had some communication with
Corvallls people. They will gladly furnish the
lunch. At Salem, carriages might take us to
the public buildings, asylum, etc, and then to
the boat. This need take but a few minutes.
All seem delighted that the entertainment Is
to be quiet, with no formal banquet and public
speaking. At Astoria there should be one or
two speeches, say Fulton and Mitchell (this Is
suggestive, merely), giving the resources of
the state and reasons for desired Improvement.
The speakers should have ample notice, with
opportunity to collect and condense facts. They
should be instructive to the committee. I can
take part or not, as is thought best, or could
respond as one of the committee.
Every little port on the Pacific has been so
clamorous for the committee to visit it, that
it has been a little difficult to convince the
committee that Portland was not indifferent.
Chairman Burton's Wishes.
Chairman Burton wrote:
.Monterey. Cal., June 16. Tour telegram
reached me yesterday. It became "necessary
for us to arrange -our itinerary before leaving
Washington. I Inclose a copy, which we shall
follow for the most part.
Not having heard from Portland until last
rangements be thoroughly outlined in advance,
as our trip is a hurried one, and wc deslrn to
secure the best possible results In the shortest
time.

Cleaning Up Copy.
W. D. Howells.
As for the author of "Uncle Tom's
Cabin," her syntax was such a snare to
ler that It sometimes needed the com
bined skill of all the proofreaders and
the assistant editor to extricate her. Of
course, nothing was ever written Into her
work, but in changes of edition, in cor
rection of solecisms, In transposition of
phrases, the text was largely rewritten
on the margin of her proofs. The soul of
her art was present, but the form was
so often absent that when it was clothed
on anew It would have been hard to say
whose cut the garment was of in many
places. In fact, the proofreading of the
Atlantic Monthly was something almost
fearfully scrupulous and perfect. The
proofs were first read by the under-proof-reader
in the printing office; then the
head reader passed them to me perfectly
clean as to typography, with his own
abundant and most Intelligent comments
on the literature, and then I read them,
making what changes I chose and veri
fying every quotation, every date, every
geographical and biographical name, ev
ery foreign word to the last accent, every
technical and scientific term. Where it
was possible or at all desirable the proof
was next submitted to the author. When
it came back to me I revised it, accept
ing or rejecting the author's judgment,
according as she was entitled by her abil
ity and knowledge or not to have them.
The proof now went to the printers for
correction: they sent It again to the head
reader, who carefully revised It and re
turned It again to me. I yead It a second
time, and it was again corrected. After
this it was revised in the office and sent
to the stereotyper, from whom it came to
the head reader for a last revision In the
plates.

She comnllmented the children on their at
titude toward the malntenrne of the band,
and said that Its principles were worthy
of faithful cultivation. In a simple way she
spoke of the domestic animals, and told
why they should be treated with consider
ation. The first prize was awarded to Donald
Morgan, 13 vears old, the second to Henry
Scott, and the third, a copy of ""Beautiful
Joe," to Miss Geneva Bellew.
The children are pupils of the Stephens
School. Since Us organization, a year
ago, the Band of Mercy has grown to a
gratifying extent, and, with Its Increase
in numbers, a greater attitude of kindness
toward all dumb creatures has been no
ticed in the boys and girls -who are mem
bers. They are taught that everything
has a right to live, and that If a creature
is killed It Is robbed of something which
cannot be given back. This point was
brought out strongly in .airs, lurner s
remarks.
Following is the prize essay by Donald
Morgan, who has written a fine sermon
for men who Indulge In shooting live
pigeons:
.4 Plea for the Pigeon.
We talk of the barbarians In the Eastern
countries, but in the sight of the animals and
birds, I think, io are Just as barbarous, or
even more so. than those In the Eastern coun
tries, especially In one case which I will de
scribe, but first I must describe the bird.
' The pigeon is a delicate bird and timid. It
Is chiefly distinguished by having the bill
horny at the tips, and It usually has 12 feath
ers In Its tall, but occasionally 14, and lta
plumage 1p more or less adorned with metallic
brightness. They fly well and high, and they
associate in pairs.
The domestic pigeon builds Its nest In boxes
attached to the wall or In barns, but the wild
pigeon builds Its nest In trees or holes in
rocks. "
Both the male and the female sit on the
nest. They only raise two little ones. They
are remarkable for the peculiar mode in which
their young are fed. The crop Is furnished
with numerous glands, which become devel
oped In both sexes. These glands have a sort
of milky substance, with which the food that
passes In the crop Is moistened. The food
thus saturated with this substance Is used by
the parents for the nourishment of the young.
When the little pigeons get big enough the
par-nts do not digest the food for them, but
let them grind the wneat tor inemscivo.
When tho little ones get so they can fly, tho
old ones make them go Into another place In
the barn.
W.en a male pigeon has no mate, every time
he sees a pigeon flying by he will go out and
flap his wings back and forth, and If It 13 a
mal he will light It off. but If It Is a female
he will call It and have her for his mate If
she has not one.
A pigeon, though it Is very timid, is a lova
ble bird. Y'ou can teach it to come at a call
when It is young and eat out of your hand.
For all tho pigeon's lovable nature, he can
fight If he wants to. For example: A boy had
a little woodpecker, which he put In a male
pigeon's house, and it puffed up its feathers
and fought it out. Then It went Into a fe
male's house, but she did not pay any attention
to it, but the little woodpecker was Indignant
at the way .he had been treated In the other
house, so he went after her; she reached for
his little throat; the boy took him out, but he
soon died.
Barbarous cruelty Is practiced on these birds
In pigeon-shooting. Men that claim to be civ
ilized will ptn a hundred or so of these beau
tiful birds up and go out on Sundays to prac
tice target-shooting, so they say. but I should
like to know why they take a live target.
They have Ave traps set In a seml-clrcle. hav-
Exhales from children as fragrance from
flowers. Tho little lips are always puck
ered to give or take a kiss. In homes
where there are children, love reaches
its fairest and sweetest proportions. In
childless homes the kiss of wife and
husband grows formal, and presently is
neglected ; the spiings of love in the
heart become choked for want of use
and exercise. Childlessness is a great
sorrow to many women. It Is like a
curse from Nature, who bids all crea
tures to be fruitful. It is not a curse
