SHIP HENRY WILLARD IN Notes on Linen and Odd Craft, Coming and Going Floating Notea of Things Afloat Pier and River and Ship. The steamer Alliance arrived down from Portland early yesterday and after freighting up here to the tune of 100 tons, left the Calender dock, for sm at 9:40 o'clock a. m. The steam schooner Bee was another early arrival from Portland, yesterday She went to sea on the noon tide. The steamer Asuncion, from Lower California, came in with the morning tide yeterday and passed on to Port land. She ha been thoroughly over hauled and handsomely painted and looks as bright a a new dollar. The steamship Columbia came down from the metropolis yesterday morn ing at 4 o'clock, and got away for San Francisco at 10:30. She was well euip ped with freight and had not even a berth for sale. Among her passenger from this citv were: (!eo. V. Hume, Mis Mabel Young, C. V. Parsons and Orrin Mulligan. The schooner W. F. Jewett cleared hence to San Francisco yesterday with over half a million feet of lumber. The schooner Beulah went to Portland yesterday under tow of the Harvest Queen. The T. J. Totter arrived down on her schedule early yesterday morning with the biggest cargo she ever brought to .istoria, 155 tons of grainstuffs and did not leave up until 10:50 o'clock a. m. The steamer Sue H. Klmore will leave out for Tillamook City, today wind, tide and bar premitting. t Oysters are moving at a lively rate hereabout. The Columbia took away 000 sacks of the luciou bivalves. The American ship Henry Villard, from Honolulu, croed in at 3 o'clock yesterduy afternoon and was taken on the towline of the Tatoosh for this har bor. The Villard is of 1452 net tons, and is in ballast. She will leave up for Portland to load lumber for Munila. On Friday night at midnight the 300 horsepower tug Melville, of the Cal hitler Navigation Company, left her dock bere for the present habitat of the stranded lightship in order to be there at 7 o'clock yesterday morning for a good day's work on the big haul neces sary to get the distressed vessel in deep water. Work begun promptly, with two 600-foot hawsers out, one of the light ship's and one of the Melville's. By the time the forenoon tide was at flood the lightship bad Wen sharply swung a quarter of the compass and hauled about 50 feeet nearer her goal; and her own hawser breaking short off at the bows, and the Melville having lost one small anchor and broken the second, it' was thought enough had been done for one day, and she wa left rolling easily in the best water she has known for some days. Those doing the work are convinced that one or two days more of good work, "Xo. 50." will be on an even keel in Baker's Bay. There must have, been some good stout hauling done jjt-stwday, wheal 300 horscjjiwer, ex erted under 180 pounds of steam, kept two 6-inch hawsers on a tension as fine as a fiddle string until the weakest collapsed and the other started to unreev itself, and it doe seem as though but little more of that sort of effort is need ed. The sea ran strong and high yes terday and made the work very trying. The steamer Telegraph came down with 151 people on board yesterday and took 64 back up the river. The lively little steamer will make her trip to day and be laid off upon her arrival at Portland, for the puropse of receiving her new equipment for burning fuel oil, instead of coal. This will take the bet ter part of 19 day Receiving Clerk Baker of the Couch treet dock, at Portland came down on the Alliance yesterday, to assist Purs er Skinner in making up his unusually heavy manifest, and returned home on the Telegraph. down in her wake to take the Lurliue's passengers to Portland. The Lurline is billed to take a big lot of foodstuffs up the lewis and Clark river today. tptain Fred Amumlson, Capo Ar- ago lighthouse keeter, departed for his station yesterday after a pleasant vaca tion spent in Astoria. The following, from yesterday's Port land Telegram, will prove of decided in terest to manv here: "Captain Clem Randall Is not In com mand of the steamer Costa Uiea, which sailed from San Francisco at 11:30 o'clock today to take the place of the stranded St Paul. It was confidently expected by the shipping fraternity that the popular master would resume the berth on the Costa Rica, but instead Captain Kitman, a widely known navi gator, is in charge. Just what will te done with reference to Captain Rand all, the local officer of the San Fran cisco t Portland Steamship Company Mrfe not to know, "It is KiipHicd that as both the Kill er and St. Pau were lost while Cap tain Randall was in command though admitted in each case not to have re sulted through any negliggence or care lessness on his part that he will no longer sail in that fleet. The Costa Rica will probably lie continued on the route until the Olrmpit come down from the north. She has been chartered to run during the winter months, and other arrangements for caring for the business are to be made at the expira tion of that time."

There is no more helpful or inter esting study than history. It ha a vital interest in that it tells us the exjieriencc of men and women who have struggled even a we are atruggling.
