Chihuahua, Mexico, June 3.
Great consternation prevails in this
city on account of the panic last

That such a calamity could, occur Is
astounding, as the cathedral is a
massive stone structure with three
broad exits and no chairs or benches
to impede egress. The building is
absolutely fireproof and the fire so
insignificant, that had the inmates
not lost presence of mind, they could
all have made their esoape easily.

THE LIFE OF A LIFECREWS-JIAN.
Last Sunday afternoon, that unus
ually warm afternoon, among the"
throng of visitors to Ft. Canby was
one,-a seafaring man in days of 3ore,
whose vision was" yet keen" and "'ideas
alert, who noticed the bravery, activ
ity and eagerness of the life crew at
the cape to save life. It was about 1
p. M., when the signal gun on the hill
was discharged and its report echoed
and re-echoed among the hills. It
was the signal to call the life crew to
work. A boat had been seen, by the
vigilant lookout, tccapsize in the
breakers four miles away in a straight
line S. S-J. E. from Cape Hancock.
The crew mustered immediately, all
hands stripping to their undershirts
and pants, prepared for a ducking
and a hard pull, itbeing one of the
worst days this spring for breakers
owing to a heavy blow off shore. At
1:10 the life boat left the station.
Half a mile out they were in the
breakers and watched by many
anxious eyes from the hill. A huge
sea was seen to strike the boat filling
it fore and aft, up to the thwarts, but
nhe soon cleared herself and the crew
still pulled head on trying to weather
Sulphur spit, when another sea broke
over the boat washing the bow oars
men among the crow aft. In a few
moments every man wa3 in his proper
place and headway made again with
the boat, and she was getting in deep
water when another sea broke over
her lifting some of the men from
their seats, filling the boat and wrest
ing the tiller from the captain's hand,
driving the boat, stern first, ono hun
dred and fifty yards. A steering oar
was put out as soon as possible, the
boat kept head on to the sea, the
rudder was broken arid useless, and
cmce more headway wa3 made to i
smooth water in the south channel
where fishing boats weie spoken, who
reported that the wreck had been se
cured by fishing boats, and towed
into Fort Stevens. Then the life
boat dropped anchor; afterwards
pulled to the northeast end of Sand
island. A heavy northwest wind
made it advisable to remain there
until 6:45 p. m., when the Puritan
came along and gave the life boat,
with its chilled and dripping occu
pants, a friendly tow to the cape.
Examination proved that everything
about the lifeboat was all right ex
cept rudder and rudder fastenings,
whioh have since been repaired by a
competent mechanic from Astoria.
This is a leaf from the life of a life
crewman at the cape. Every sea that
struck and swept the boat that af
ternoon was thought by the crowd of
people on the hill to be the last of
her and the crew, Capt. J. W. Walker
commenced young to be a sailor,
served his time, learned it thorough
ly and is clear headed and cool on
duty. X.
Enjoy Life.
"What a truly beautiful world we
live in! Nature gives us grandeur of
mountains, glens and oceans, and
thousands of means of enjoyment.
"We can desire no better when in
