Breakwater reports an unusually strong
southerly. current alQngthe eoast This,
coupled with the 'strong northwesterly
breese. makes It slow T travellnr for
north hound craft and correspondingly
'easy for craft south bound. .
The Breakwater arrived here at 7
o'clock last night, ' about four hours
later than usual. Her tardiness was
due to the contrary -vinds and . waves.
On her last trip south, however, the
Breakwater made fine time, covering
'the distance rom the lower harbor to
North Bend on Coos bay in 21 y, hours.
It took her IS hours and 18 minutes
from bar to bar. . -
While at Coos Bay the officers ef
the Breakwater wera entertained at a
banquet ' given by the Commercial club
In honor of "Minnesota day," Among
other guests of. prominence at the fes
tive board was Joaquin Miller, poet of
' the Bierras. Captain Macgenn of the
Breakwater Is a natural-born -poet him
self and when oalled upon for a few
remarks at the banquet, recited one of
his poems, "The Scotchman and the
, Swede," - a historical work of consider-
.able length. The poet of the Sierras
talked briefly on Oregon's resources
, and on the rose. Captain Macgenn
says it was the first time he has had
the pleasure of meeting the famous
writer.
Coos Bay Is having quite a celebra
tion and the torpedo boat destroyer
Perry, which- Is scheduled to arrive
here any day, was at Empire city when
the Breakwater left the bay.
The Breakwater brought II passen
