Some of the state papcra aro trying to
defend the action of tho managers of the
state fair in having their printing done
in Cincinnati. One newspaper as a sort
of clincher says the managers "saved"
$80 by having tho work done there. Ob,
very well then. If "saving" is the order
of tho day there aro a good many news
paper men in the stato who will "save"
the dollars they would pay compositors
in advertising and favorably noticing the
fnir. If a man wants to cet tho saving
business down real fine ho should die and
then his expenses would entirely cease.
The st?to fair managers made a big mis
take in sending to Cincinnati for their
work and for eTery dollar they "saved"
they lost $100.
Girl Wanted.
A competent girl can hear of a good
situation by applying to B. B. Franklin,
next door to Astoria office.
The following is taken from yester
day's Oreyenian:
Pocrr Rkyus, Aug. 23. The two pur
vivors of the wrecked bark Haddington
shire are now being cared for here at tho
ranch of Mr. Reiuhold. Wm. Murray,
16 vears of age, the Scotch apprentico
lad "on the Haddingtonshire, tells the fol
lowing interesting story of the disaster:
"Wo left Astoria July -1 with a full car
go and twenty-one souls on board. We
had a fair run south for three weeks un
til one day, whcntwelvo degrees north of
the line, we were struck by a squall,
which threw us clean on our beam.
When we struck we had all our sails set
but the rovals. It was two hours before
tho vessel righted. While she lay on her
side, Simon Johnson, tho carpenter, and
August Anderson and Thomas Ros3, able
seamen, were washed overboard. The
next morning we found the second mate,
Wm. Curtis, dead on the deck, killed by
something which struck him during the
squall. Our starboard lifeboat 'was
smashed, tho sails all torn, tho starboard
forecastle all washed away and tho cap
tam'achronometer and sextants smashed.
The cantain cave orders to coino about
for San Francisco. Wo had a good run I
up, guessing our reckoning and looking
out for laud the last four days. Wednes
day there were lookouts alolt and on
deck. Wednesday night at eight bells
when Hans, tho man who was saved with
me, came below ho said he would not run
four hours more, no knew we were near
ing land by the change in tho color of
V.si . Aw Anvtnn 4Un 11 rl'hn Qlllr
thought he was joking. I went on watch
then. It was roach and very foggy.
At two o'cloci Thursday morning 1 was
heaving tho log from tho poop deck. We
were making eight knots, with every
thing set but the royals, and our foghorn
blowing. The deep sea lead had just
been brought.on dcok at 2,03 o'clock, when
tho lookout called eut:
and the bow forward of tho forecastle.
No part of the rigging could be seen and
only tho ragged stumps of tho masts.
The vards and all the rigging had been
carried overboard. Tho ships bow
points northward and her port ado leans
toward tne shore. The midships aro
carried away, and in fact the whole ves
sel is
BBOKEH TO TIECES,
And there is no chance of any part of
her being saved. The salmon, I think,
arc also lost, as some COO cases havo
floated ashore and havo been piled up
along the beach. Tho cans being air
tight were so heavy that the weight
bursted the bottom out of all the floating
cases and tho tin3 sank, while tho cases
aro being washed ashore. Large quanti
ties of flour are strewn along the sands.
I think that considerable of tho flour
can be saved, as tho water dots nt pen
etrate sacks more than a quarter of en
inch. Wo could not communicate with
tho shore and consequently could learn
nothing beyond what I havo stated."
A later dispatch from Point Reyes says:
All that is visible of tho bark Hadding
tonshire is a few feet of the bow and
stern. The vessol is broken in two parts,
and from the open ends whero she broke
and separatod, the sea is washing out
hnTHi of canned salmon and bags of
flour. She lies in tho breakers, and what
little i3 visible above tho waves i3 being
rapidly demolished.
THIS WnECKECS AT WOKE.
She went aground on a shelvinc. sandy
bottom, 100 yards from tho shore, five
miles north of Point Reyes light house.
The ranchers thereabouts call tne oroau
white strip of beach there North Beach.
It belongs to the ranch of Peter W. Rein
hold. For miles along the beach the
white sands aro dotted with stacks of
bagged flour and boxed salmon, carried
up by tho wreckers, while the water's
edge is fringed with bales of broken
boxes and bags of flour, the latter too
much damaged to bo saved, looking like
prodigious dumplings. This evening a
crowd of tho neighborhood ranchars re
turned to their homes, having stacked
ap about 3,000 boxes of salmon and as
many bags f flour, but not having found
nny bodies.

Francisco after losing tho captain nnd
several of tho crow. The Norwegian
bark Jorsalfarcr which left hero last
year wheat laden, has had a similar ex
Xierience, though, fortunatcly.Isomewhat
modified, on her return trip. Sho was
bound to Victoria, but put into San Fran-
bluo light, and then the first officer went cisco last Tuesday. Sho left Acapulco
up into the mizzen rigging. Wo hung j on July 9th. and on tho first day ont
then ordered us into tho ricaing. Thir- !
teen of us got into the main rigging, two
in the mizzen rigging, and tho captain
.ind first oflfasr wjn, b lo v fur b'.u t Ii2ht
and rockets. When the captain came up
tho commnioa wav the sea washed the
rockets out of lifs hands. Ho burned one
on with tho sea going over tho mastheads
until :5iD o'clock, when the rigging gave
way, and then the captain ordered ui on
deck.
"As I was going down the rigging the
and the yards, but crawled up through 1
the rigging and tne sea washed 1110 over
board. I heard nothing but cries for
help. I was in tho breakers and so ex
hausted that I lay on my back and tried
to swallow enough water to drown. Tho
breakers threw mo away inshoro and I
felt sand with my linger.!. That gavo
mo hope, and 1 swam and straggled un
til I got on tho beach. I fainted then
and woko up two hoars afterward. I
found a beaten path, followed it and got
here, whero thoy gavo ma warm, dry
clothes and breakfast. Mr. Reinhold
rode down to the beach when I told him
what had happened, and found Hans
Markuson, tuo oluer only 0:10 savcu.
m .Tfilm Frnzinr. cinlain: Geor0 Gun
niugham, chief mate; John Mackay,
steward; Colin Campbell, cook; Walter J
Eastland, Peter McLean. Thomas Mider,
John Waters, Edward Morrison, Robert
Fife and Charles Lungson, able seamen;
William Morrison, Robert Darney, Fred
Poheiui and James Cunningham, appren
tices. Tho captain lived in Iveru&tt,
Scotland."
When t'jo boy had finished this story
ho was asked where ho lived.
"In Glasgow, with my undo and aunt,"
ho answered.
"This will bo happ'news to them."
"No, sir," tho boy answered, tsars
springing to hi3 eyes for tho first tinio
during his story. "My cousin, their son,
was lost with tho ship."
Tho story of Hans Markuson is much
the same as that of tho boy's. Murku
son was below and felt tho vessel pitch
suspiciously. Ho ran on deck and asked
the mate if ho had seen a light.
Tho mate said, "Yes, a flash light,"
just as the man aloft called, "Laud
ahead!"
"I was in the mizzen rigging wilh the
captain, male and steward when tho cap
tain ordered us down. The steward, who
was below me, was afraid to move, so I
slid down tho backstay. I got hold of
tho log lino and tried to take it ashore
with me. when I was washed over, to
savo tho fellows who could not swim, bat
tho lina was to short."
THU CArTAIS
Had a life preserver on, and was with me
and the mato and steward in the water
some time, but wo got separated when
tho boxes of salmon knocked us about,
and I saw no more of them."
Mr. Reinhold says that Markuson was
insensible when found on the boach. air.
Reinhold after caring for tho survivors,
notified the neighbors and then rode to
Olema and telephoned to San Francisco,
so that, as ho says, everyone would know
of the wreck.
This evening Markuson was taking a
lesson in milking and tho boy was sitting
bv tho warm kitchen liro his lama foot
propped np comfortably.

"Wo aro going to keep him here a
couple of month?," said Miss Reinhold.
"Well," said the boy, looking out on
tho rough, foggy ocean, then back to his
cheerful surroundings, "I was thinking I
havo had enough of tho sea for a while,
heaw oalea wero encountered, which
drove the vessel up the gulf. On tho
same day tho captain was stricken with
the fever and fell on deck as if paralyzed.
The crew one by one wero stricken down,
nnd after tho vessel got out.of tho gulf,
sho made her way helplessly northward,
tho raafc for a period of twenty-five days
being the only man able to work. At tho
end of that time the crew commenced to
show signs of improvement, and were
able occasionally to tako a littlo "spell at
the wheel," and gradually improved un
til nt tho timoshe reached tho Jatitudo of
San Francisco thero wero enough men
able to work to enable the master to at
tempt to reach that place for medical aid.
Ono of tho crew died on tho passaee and
the master had a very narrow escape, as
for over three weeks ho was lying at
death's door. Tho discaso is caused, as
in the case of tho Star of Erin and tho
Embleton, by tho water taken aboard at
Acanulco from tho swamps. The vessel
j was immediately quarantined, and no
one auowfcu on ooaru or to couimuaicuo
with her.

On the up trip of the Columbia just
before arriving at tho mouth of the river,
a schooner was seen bearing down upon
the steamer with all sails set. Owing to
the smoke or fog neither vessel sighted
tho other until they wero close together,
and for a few moments a collision was
imminent. Both vessels hovo thoir
helms hard down and a disastrous catas
tropho was barely avoided. Some of tho
passengers say they do not want to see
such another close call. Standard, 21.
