ALL APPARENTLY HAPPY Stories Told to Aatorlaa Reporter! by Some of the Victim of the Wreck Realistic Memories of a Trying Hour Left for Portland. The eagerly expected steamer Alliawe from San Francisco and Kureka, with a king lifj of tha wrecked St. Paul' iaenger arrived In yeterday at 2:-K) oVhsk p. m., and docked at the Cat-U-niler pier. She had 171 paenger sltoard, SS of whom were "-staway" from the St. Paul. The Alliance had a big manifest of freight, 40 ton of which she landed here. Sim left Knrck at 8 o'clock on Sunday morning lat and made but one top on the way Up at Mamhfleld, Coo Hay. Sue had p1eaant weather and a Kiuooth m- all the way up, and all her leile were in excellent spirit when he touched here yestenlay. Ib'preix-utative of Astorian boarded here liiUiitly and were Mm in touch with toe Mtory of the los of the St. Paul on Point liorda, in the dawning hour of Thumday lat. Among thoe interviewed waa Mrs. Henry Zcirjack, of Fairbank, Iowa, who with her daughter, Mi Mamw and a friend Mm Itacliel Fgtvton, was touring the coat, the party lieing then en route lo Portland and the fair. Mn. Zierjack, in speaking of their ex perience, said in part: "We three occupied a state room to gether on what you call the "port" ide of the St. Paul, and were in our berth and sou nil asleep at 2:30 o'clock vu Thursday morning of last week, when wv were aroused by quick sharp order from one of the cabin stewards, to "get up and put on life preservers, and do it a quickly a you can." We prang out of our berth jut a the ldp struck. The jar wa fearful and threw ii aros the stateroom and be fore we could recover our balance, the econd hock threw ii back again, and by thi time we were thoroughly fright ened, the oteward re-aeared to see if hi call had tieen responded to, and iiusiu cMnmiinile iih to ife life pre-H-rver, auritig u that "thing would be all right, but he wa as white a tho foam on the M-a outride, and depurtcd leaving our door wide oNn and hooked to the wall outide to keep it open. From our room, (we were on the inshore ide of the vecl) we could ee plainly the outline of the rocks and the hills hack of them.'and having regained our prernc of mind we dreed huridly and stepied out into the gnng-way to await further directum for our safety. The ollicem were cool and careful, but very determined and stern, and soon had the whole crowd in giMnl nerve and clonely atU-ntive to what wa to fol low, "We could we on the shore a man oi horseback. To him the captain mega phoned an order to fly to the nearest K)int and give the new of our peril and the man fled up the bills a fast a hi home could go. The sea was running high and swift and breaking heavily on the risk, but, aside from fog, tho weather wa pleasant enough". The pounding of the ship was awful. "Soon after the man disappeared the officer got out the tackle and appara tn for nhooting the lino a-diorc and fired three line liefore one reached the beach and held. The flmt two burned dmrt off long liefore they reached the snore and the third fell just as the "man on horseback' returned with a crowd of nearly 50 people and aa many homes, and In the party were nine wo men. "Our party left the St. Paul in one of the life boat at 4 p. m. and went on board the steamer Vanguard, which had been summoned to our relief by the flmt life boat dispatched from our steamed, 11 hour Is? fare and in which 13 people, crew ami pasaenger were seated. We found them tn the Vanguard when we boarded her. "Tlie St. Paul's officers worked like beaver all day long and did everything possible for our comfort and to reas sure ua in our plight. Gun were fired incesitantly so long as the fog tated, to guide any vessel to us that might give us aid; and the Vanguard was cheered to the echo when she appeared. "The flmt life boat out was really dispatched to Kureka 32 mile away, and after 0 hours of pulling, sighted the Vanguard and were taken on board, and tlie steamer at once began to search the coast for the St. Paul and found us after tbre hours of close hunting. The Vanguard, took all tin passenger she could carry and left at i o'ekick in the evening, reaching there at II o'clock at night. The people of Kureka were kind new itself and I gues the company had made arrangements by wire for our accommodation, for we paid nothing and got everything, whil there awaiting the Alliance. "She arrived late Scturday night and we txwrded her at once, and left there at o'clock Sunday mornig. We made one stop on the way up (Cooa lUy) and here we are safe ami sound, but minus our baggage. But we're going to see the Lewi and Clark fair anyway. Tlie story told by Mrs. Zierjack was confirmed by Mm. F.jrle-ton and by Mi Mamie, a well a by Mr. C. M.

TBAVEL IN AIRSHIPS HEREAFTER Mr. and Mrs. P. S. Chaperon, accom panied by their 11 -year-old son, Willie, were passenger on the St. Paul, and made the trip from Kureka on the steamer Alliance. Mr. Chaperon tells an interesting story of the wreck. For many yearn her husband had been in busine in Portland and lasi November he sold out. Since that time the family ha traveled about the country quite extensively and a couple of month ago the trip to California was made, "It was the fimt ocean trip for the little lsiy," said Mrs. Chaperon, "and it will probably be the last that he will make, in my company at least. We hud planned to visit Germany and France next season, but that trip is called olf until air ship have been per fected. "We went ashore at 1 o'clock in the morning and a moment after we struck the ro-k the light went out. It wa then that the excitement commenced and to my dying day I shall never forget the confusion that existed during the 15 minutes that we were in darkness. "The officer of the ship acted prompt ly and with great coolness and it was not long until five boat were lowered from the ship. Many passenger re mained on board tlie St Paul until day light in the morning and we were among the number. We managed to get off in the morning, but like the other pas sengers all the clothing we had with us, except what we were wearing at the time the ship went ashore, was left be lt iud. "Few people on loard the St. Taiil when she struck the rock expected to Is? saved and under the circumstances I think that most of them acted coolly enough. I was rather surprised at the way the little boy took things. He did not seem to realize that there was any great danger, but he coolly informed u that he was going to dm a life pre server and swim ashore. I am very tluMikful to know that we are getting home again, even if we did loa every thing that we had on biaird." ANDREW ERICES0N DEAD. Andrew Kikkson, an old resident of Astoria, died at St. Mary' hospital. early yesterday morning. Typhoid fever, with a later complication of mcnginitls, wa the caue of death. A young son, and a wife, who is demented, survive the father and husband. No funeral ar rangements have yet been made. Mr. Erickson was taken to the hospi tal two weeks ago.
