A boat was hurriedly lowered although with little nope 01 getting tne poor reiiow. it was manned by two officers and two Las cars and the big tramp, was brought to atop as soon as possible. Faint cries for help were heard in the far distance and the men in the boat pulled with all might to win the race against geam.

Strangely, the weight tt the brass rotator was not sunx-iem to overcome tha buoyancy of the Las car who la an expert swimmer, and he waa picked up and taken back to the vessel.

Ten dsys ago the Lascars, of whom there are 47 on board, celebrated a fes tival corresponding to Christina and the officers had all they could do to keep the celebrants at work.- B'-tng deeply religious tha Lascars wanted to carry out the appropriate rites before attending to their work and for sev eral houra it was feard the stokers in the fire room would declare a strike. This would have left . the tramp help less in the storm and the men were nrevailed upon to remain at their posts. This is the first visit here of the Baron Cawdor. She won built for the Calcutta trade, which accounts for her carrying the dark sailors. On her way to Europe the steamer will call at Cal cutta for a change of crew, as the laws of India prescribe that aea roving na tives must return to their country at; least once a year. The Baron Cawdor is in command of Captain Ooudy, assisted by Chief Of ficer Fintow, Second Officer kndean and Third Officer Murchlston. Luckily bowover.' no lives were lost. The bark Europe was at anchor in the stream, wheat-laden and ready to proceed to Europe, while the Annie Comings waa . bound ' down the river with a lot of machinery for the paper mills at La Camas. It was dark and Pilot Spinner declared at the in vestigation he did not see lights on the Europe. The river craft ran across the windjammer's bow and was cut In two. the after part drifting down the river end the forward part, containing the boilers, going to the bottom. The owners of the Annie Comings libeled the Europe for 40.000, holding that the ship waa responsible. A bond for that amount was put up Saturday When the bark left down the river.

Bishop Scaddlng's ' lecturing tour through New England and New Tork last fall, where be made' an earnest ap peal for more" clergymen for the dio cese of Oregon la beginning to bear fruit. Churchmen throughout the east where ministers are plentiful are waking up to the fact that some steps must be taken to heod the "Macedonian ory" of Oregon's bishop, Th Rochester, New Tor. Post-Ex-press recently printed an article say. mg that a movement waa on foot to induce young clergymen to come to this state ana serve as rectors of par ishes. In discussing the subjeot the Post-Express had the following to say; Appeal Bears Trult. ' "As a result of the lecture and appeal delivered and made recently at Chrlat KDlscobal church by Bishop Scaddlng. bishop of the Protestant Episcopal dio cese or vregon, a vasi dui auracuve charge, some action is likely to be' taken to' help him get men enough and able enough to aerve as rectors for his par ishes.

Borne Rochester I churchmen discussing the appeal, have declared they consider that the present is the psychological moment for an ad-. vance in church missionary effort in Hal D. Patton. Oregon. "Bishop Scaddlng Is considered a past master in the liberal art of lecturing, and with a modernity that befits him welL he employs the limelight to help make his appeal and portray his dtocese. It was an unique effort to obtain the in terest of business men in domestic mis sions. Are Widely Soattered. The zealous lecturer declared that be asked financial backing from friends outside his territory because his diocese with the men and means st Its command. he said. Is simply unable to cope with the conditions which confront it. vvltn the rapid increase of Inhabitants, scat tered as they are over so much space our present force of clergymen is ab- urdlv Insufficient. The church is oareiy able to hold Its own and views with growing apprehension and distress the unavoidable loss of people who have been trained In the ways of the church In the east and middle west, who come to Oregon and drift away from the church and from God. These must not be neglected spiritually. They willingly contribute accordingly to their ability, and will do all they can, but being so few In number and so widely scattered, are Quite unable to support a missionary.' "Tne time win come, or course,' de clared the western bishop, 'when the church of my diocese will be well able to support Kself; but. In the meantime it has to look to the church In the east. And I want you people of Rochester to know that the people of my diocese re not paupers, far from It; they are opening up vast fields by which the east benefits every day. From the Pacific coast must radiate much of that civili sation which comes with Christianity; and It is the open door to what the Episcopal church, and others, today call 'foreign work. The Silent Churciee. The 81Ient Churches' made a sad tale as told by the blshoo. He said that although there is not a dollar of eot on any cnurcn in his diocese, and It contains many good churches and fine buildings, many scattered throughout his wide territory have to remain without I clergymen. because there are not enough clergy to fill them; and even if there were thero is not enough monev to pay tho clergy. "Ho advocates the 'associate mission' plan, and calls from Rochester for three or four clergymen, young and unmar ried, who could center at one headquar ters, and from that central point work a wide surroundIngcountry.
