WASHINGTON AUTHORITIES RE
PORT MEN TAKEN OFF AND DUE
IN SEATTLE ABOUT TODAY ON
REVENUE CUTTER THETIS FROM
UNALASKA.
flood news was received yesterday in
Astoria from Washington that tbe 240
men wrecked at Kelson Lagoon on tbe
John Currier had been taken off about
the 14th of the present month by the
revenue cutter McCullough. The men
were taken to Unalajslca and transferred
to the revenue cutter Thetis, a 1200-ton
boat, which left that port on tbe six
teenth for either Seward or Seattle.
As no reports have been received that
she stopped at Seward it Is thought that
she steered straight for Seattle, where
she is due today. It is expected that
before another 24 hour full report
of the wreck will be furnished.
The prompt reply of the government
shows that since the first news of the
wreck was sent toVashington that the
government has been working for the
rescue of the men ever since. There are
110 white men in the party and 130
Japanese and Chinese. Most of them
make their home here and have been in
the emnlov of the Alaska Fishermen's
Packing Company.
WASHINGTON', Sept. 23. A message
was received from Capt. Munger, com
manding th Bchring Sea fleet of reve-
nua cutters, dated at Unalaska, stating
that the cutter McCulloch had rescued
243 persons from the ship John Currier,
which was "wrecked on August 8, in Nel
son's Lagoon. All of the rescued per
sona were transferred to the cutter
Thetis had discretionary orders for land
ing the party either at Seward or Se
attle. The rescue was timely, as the
food supply saved from the Currier was
getting short.
Will Get His Charm-
Lieut. Cooper, who was formerly lo
cated at Fort Stevens, lost an Elk charm
about a year ago, and all efforts to re
cover same vers futile. Eo will be made
happy, by a communication, from County
Clerk Clinton stating that the missing
charm has been found, and will be sent
to him. A week ago a young man, driv
ing along the road, near Gearhart, was
compelled to stop to maka repairs.- He
noticed something bright In the sand
and, picking It up, found it to be en
Elk charm. Thad Trullinger, hearing of
it, examined the jewel and finding that
it was engraved "180 A. J.O." he rec
ognised It. That turned it over to
County Clerk Clinton who will ifonvard
it to its owner.

With a constantly aching back.
A woman should not have a bad back,
And she wouldn't if the kidneys were
well
Doan's Kidney Pills make well Kid
neys. Mrs. A. S. Cummings, of Ui Clacka
mas street, Portland, Ore, says: "Kid
ney complaint and backaches clung to
me for a long time and often I suf
fered very severs attacka of it Some
times it was a dull heavy aching over
the kidneys, and again sharp acute pain
in the small of the back. The kidney
secretions passed too frequently and of
ten with pain. I had tried several reme
dies with poor results and was finally
induced to use Doan's Kidney Pills. Tbey
helped me very 'quickly and continuing
their use I soon found relief from the
aches and pains. The action of the kid
ney secretions was also strengthened to
a great extent. I recommended Doan's
Kidney Tills in our papers three years
ago. I am always pleased to say a good
word for this remedy and am glad of
this opportunity to confirm my former
testimony.''
