EARLY DAY WRECK
Story of the Loss of the Cood Ship Sea
Eureka in rebiudry. ool.
Continued from last week.
The shin before daylight the follow
ing morning was onable to get out nnd
immediately put to sea. Had a good
run to Humboldt with wind southwest
,,! infirwchm nvprv moment wltn
every appearance of a, heavy gale The
captain therefore engaged to un
charge all for that port ar.d proceed
on her voyage without delay, the tide
rendering it possible at 3 p. m. ai
which time she proceeded to the bar.
The sea having increased during her
detention in the bay presented a wild
and stormy appearance. The ship
however stood for sea and crossed the
bar having reached 8 fathoms when
one of those immense seas, termed by
seamen, "the three brothers" struck
and boarded over her "night heads
carrying away "Hulk heads" gang
ways and every article movable and by
the great concussion forced her steam
pipe which was a heating pipe leading
from the steam trunk to the chest
bursting the latter, throwing a mass
of steam into the engine- rooms
lrivimr all therein from their posts.
The two following seas boarded and
drove the ship inside the bar against
the strong ebb tide. Here she was
helpless. Presence of mind and
prompt action was now necessary to
save the lives of those on board. Cap
tain Ti 'honor sang out to the mute to
cut ring stopper, he being on the fore
castle holding on to the bitts in the
midst of the crew. He did not respond
when the captain sprang from the
Poop Deck to the main cleat, caught
a knife from the sheath of one of the
crew cut the anchor ndrift and shoved
it from the rail. A range of chains
was at all. time overhauled forward of
the windless ready for an emergency
ind here was one of the greatest mag
nitude.. Care was immediately taken
to preserve life. All were ordered
by the Captain to keep clear from the
lea of the houses on deck. He sent
all of the passengers to the weather
side of the boat and then went below
placing the women and children in
safe positions and assuring all that
none should be drowned if his orders
were obeyed.
With sixty fathoms scope to her an
chor, the ship toiled into" a north chan
nel, laying broadside to the sea, which
broke repeatedly over her. The pas
sengers were ordered to take the seas
on end that the least surface should
be presented for the action of the sea
Not a hat remained on the head or any
person: clothing was torn in shreds. In
this position the ship remained for
one hour and forty minutes. The cap
tain stating that he believed that ho
could save the ship and get her into
the bay if lie could weather the first
three sens, on the wake of thu flood
tide. As the ebb slacked the heavy
seas that were and had been breaking
on the outside of the liar began to ap
proach nearer thes hip. When the
young flocd began the first heavy sea
caused the ship to drug, men were
ordered aloft to overhaul the top sail
gear others standing ready to sheat
home, already to slip. As the ship
swung to the flood her stern struck,
carrying away lipr rudder, then rend
ering it necessary to run her by her
canvass for the bay, or run her stern
through the sea over the north shoal,
ind by so doing, save the lives of her
crew and pasengcrs. From the time
of her tailing to the seas on the young
tide, not a sea her boarded Iwr. Orders
wore given to set the force-top sail
It was set with great dispatch, her
chains slipped, and finding it impos
sible to enter the bay, she was kept
before the sea and by hor canvass pre
vented fiom broaching too near the
shore. A boat was lowered, which
had escaped the terrible ordeals. Tho
captain took command and run a small
line to tlis shore, making it fast U a
largo rod wood tree, lying upon tho
shore. He could not return in tho boa.
hut gave orders to the crew, and pul
led himself back to the ship on the
line run, reaching which a hawser was
bent on to the lino and was drawn on
shore and mado fas'.. The end on hoard
was Uikon to lisiiGor and made taut.
The least rise of tho ship alio would
yield to the taut hawser. Tho flood
tide sotting in enabled her to keep hur
brn pointed for tho bench. It was
now blowing heavily from noulliwest
and night Imving set in rendered it
moat diMgruoflhJa. In the meantime

ON HUMBOLDT BAR
Gull Captain Tichenor Commanding off
a leak having occurred. All the car
go was secured under the canvass of
the ship. The passengers on the fol
lowing day proceeded to Eureka, nnd
there received all care and attention
required. The machinery was taken
out with little damage. The protejt
was duly noted, all tilings wore loft in
the hands of I. M. Hubbard, the purs
er of the ship. He was from Rochest
er N. Y., a fearless and worthy gent
leman. The captain was desirious of reach
ing San Francisco as soon as possible
but one opportunity offered and that
of tlie most hazardous character, in a
ships launch which had been decked
over schooner rigged. She had und
ertaken to go to sea with four in her
capsized on the bar and drowned all
hands. She was opened at her wood
end in her stern and in the most de-
lapidated condition. This vessel was
owned by a young m:in who offered her
to the captain, and agreed to compen
sate him if lie took her to Sa,n Fran
cisco. Work was at once commenced
to repair and put in ordor the little
craft, which, as far as possible, was
soon accomplished. Some of the pas
sengers wrecked in the Sea Gull and
freight for Trinidad, which the cap
tain agreed to take there if possible
A number of persons were at Hum
boldt wishing to get to San Francis
co but were unwilling to risk crossing
the terrible liar. These would pro
ceed to Trinidad by land, and there
join the little "Bona Dee" thai being
her name, if she succeeded in reach
ing there. When ready for sea none
would undertake the venture save one
sailor, who had been a number of voy
ages with the captain, nnd his stew
ard and cook, all others being too ti
mid. The little craft drifted down the
hay to the entrance late one uvening,
lif weather being tl-U' and foggy
with no wind. Slu! laid there until
the next morning Fcbiuary it', 1Si2,
nnd at early 'lawn on the very last
of the ebb tide, with no wind she wan
pulled to sea with largo oars, crossing
the bar without accident. They took
a breeze at 10 a. m. from the North
west, heating up the oo.isl to within
tyo miles of Trinidad wl:c n the wind
failed. On the inornin of the -0th
a dense fog shut out a view of coast
but it raised tibout 11a. in. and let
them see Trinidad, to whMi they pul
led. Adams & Co. Expresi. wished
to send their treasure down. Tne en )
tain at first refused to take it, but fi
nally permitted the agent r, place it
in a chest containing papers and in
struniontfi hut refused t touch or re
ceipt for it. The vessel got away ear
ly on the morning of tha 21st, the
wind fresh from the southeast and in
creasing to a pood blow ! noon. She
cleared Capo Mendocino, well to thu
westward, as no land was in sith'. on
the 22nd. The wind luuled to the
Noithwcst, blowing fresh. The pas
sengers wore ordered to ,)laco them
selves in the different positions de
manded by the trimmhig of the ves
sel's sails, there being 10 bes'des a
largo Newfoundland dog. They fill
ed the hole so completely when lying
down that, all exercise was piecluded
About noon a large svhoiii of whale
surrounded the vessel, otto1! passing
under her in fearful proxin.ity and
rendering the sefety of the boat criti
cal. Had one touched her. one blow
of its flukes would have shivered her
in n thousand fragment!. After play
ing about thu vessel diving thwart her
stern then under her bottom, for two
hours, she was relieved all at one" by
the approach of a school of "killers"
the enemy and destroyer of tho whale,

Where our leaders m.iv talk on topics
of muluil ami Rrnenl interejt.
Mr. Dufort Objects
Mr. Editor: The Western World of
last week, printed an article under
the heading of "Dufort Presents A
Claim" that very much misrcprerenU
ed things. The flume spoken of is not
in front of my property but across the
street on Mr. Donald and Mr. Dover
aux. The 'understanding was at the
time I put it in that Mr. Mast would
allow mo "0c per foot. There was Ulf
feet of it. This was let separate from
the street contract and was never
paid for. As for fooling that the ity
should not tax the Engineering fund
of G per cent, I never made such an
assertion. But I did state that On
board having paiil out the 5 per cent
engineering fund as interest on liack
warrants for sewerage and street im
provements from time to time, thai
we were entitled to the 5 percent for
our streetjtho same to be used to
drain these two blocks.
At the time that the street went
thru I put in a hid at .07 Hs per ft.
for gutter which was refused.
Knowing that my home would serve
is a drain for several blocks I deter
mined to put in gutter along my
own front, but the engineer would not
allow it saying that he would not ac
cent the street improvement if 1 did
so. The gutter they mention, was not
nvule to drain, the outer edge being as
high as thu street. Instead of a 2x4
being used, a 2x12 was put in. It is
there to be seen. All I ask is justice.

The Fourth Estate
"To live as a member of the great
white race of men, to share its
thoughts and its aspirations, it is ne
cessary that a man snouui read nis
newspaper," saul U. S. Senator Ster
ling, of South Dakota, in an address
to the students at the University of
South Dakota. "The newspaper," lie
continued, "has come to be indispens-
ible. It goes and penetrates every
where. It has been said of the news
papers that they are to the whole ci
vilized world what the daily house
talk is to the household; they keep our
daily interest in eacli other, they save
us from the evils of isolation. "I like
to go back to the splendid principle
on which tho fine structure rests. And
that principle is the freedom of the
public newspaper. Our forefathers
had tfio gift prophecy in regard to the
press; they must have foreseen m
what power and influence it would
come. They had no dread of publi
city of official acts or motives. They
had faitli in the ultimate triumph of
truth. Jefferson was willing that er
ror might lie presented if truth could
only be loft free to combat it. lie
was opposed to a censorship of the
press, and said that if lie must choose
a government without newspapers and
newspapers without a government lie
would prefer to risk the newspapers
without the government, lie believed
that public opinion would measurably
correct things if public opinion were
left free, but Hint government with
out a free expression of public opinion
would soon become a despotism."
