' 'It Hhlmmerlnff fikln blanched by tropic nuns and wnHheu by Rilb-e(liatorlal torrcntH, tho Hky nhip that Iihn croHHed the Pacific once and the Atlantic Heven tlmwN. to ' say nothing of rinpinK the world,, noneil Into sluht at C o' clork - (UT.) this morning as ghostly as the minis from which It nam. . , Offlcera and passengers told of storms Jn the air and as soon as tle; ship was berthed workmen 1'fgMji leimun iru nmniii " hbtilinf? In place the aft rear en gine, gondola. JThe paflsengers spoke of tho storm casualty and smilingly Just o one tells of rough but undang eiobx seas encountered 111 an ocean liner. Even tho women. Mrs. Mary Pierce or New York City, Mrs. ijiurn Duisttm of Syra cuse,. Now York, and latly Orace Drummond Hny of London, said they had not been frightened nt any time. Boon after the ship arrived, wit nessed by a crowd of scant hun dreds instead of the thousands who came to see her on the three other times she was here, the passengers began to scatter. The Infante Alfonso, first cousin of the king of Hpaln, was taken in a.. navy piano to Washington at Invitation of the government. ' Defore tho paHsengois left, how ever, they were subjected to cus toms and health examinations and to Interviews, sound reel talks, and dotons of photographs. An hour and a quarter after the Ornf was first sighted.

Arrival here was made dramnt loisby a ring of ham around the horlcon from which the ship sud denly appeared quite closo at hand like some strange groping beaut from anothor world come to Investigate the earth. On ono side appeared the navy dirigible jM Angeles, slenderer but almost as long as the Oraf nnd on the other the commercial blimp Vigi lant, which seemed by contrnst to make tho other ships even more .gigantic than they actually nro. In an Interview In the hangar press room Dr. Kchener spoke of the ehlp In high praise and told of drenching rains In South Amer ica and windstorms on tho way from Pernambuco here. "At half past eight last night," he sold speaking through on Interpreter, "we rnn Into a squall which was the worst I have ever experienced. Ono .minute the wind was blowing nt 30 miles an hour In one direc tion nnd the next It was blowing 40 miles In exactly the opposite direction." ,"The ship dipped llko this, he gestured with a swoop of his hand. "Hut none of the passeng ers was seasick. It was n worse squall than the one In mid-ocean on tho first Atlantic flight of the Ornf when fabric was torn from a fin." '' VISIT TO KLAMATH KLAMATH FALLS.
