It hi Uxut;bt that tbe sujr activity of Capt. Parley waa due Vj .r.e fact tkat line Columbia river creu v. ai a boot to do aometbin and it was tirr,. for him to et in and deliver tne e or lose his job. it irJe that corxJit ions were better Monda.. rooming than they were Sun day aftcruoon and there seemed u te praoti'ally no danjrer in malcin;; the atteiiipt, however, regard lew ot &ia and tii.: repeated urging of Sheritf Crt'uhww tbe crew made no attempt to jtt trie two dead men who were laih'-d u the boat. 1'hc r.'seued men were taken to a nearoy noute where they were put to bed ar.i given proper treatment at once. I a short time they began to feel b-'.ter and were able to talk. Capt. Wesiprial stated that when tne vessel weni..r seven and possibly eight rr.en cljng to the bal, viz: the four who ere rescu-d the two dead men who Were still lashed to the lxi.it. Ii.h poor fellow who jumped over board Sj'iday evening and poesibly the j coo who may have been trapped in ttie cook's cabin, but who muttt aurely be i dead if iuch wa.i the cane. Capt. Vet-' phdl fct.U.-l that he had mado a pretty KooiJ siHrei. of the boat before he left and he was sure there were no more , men on her. ! All tiie ooats records and papers are loEt. A brief telegram stating the fad tnat were then known was sent' to tne 'jennan consul at Soattle, by Shentr Crenshaw, soon after Uic men were brought ashore. Captain Westphal stuted that as soon as the boat began to tip and feink tnot of the men either jumped overboard or went into the rimrinjra whore sure death awaited them. From tho first, second and third mates who deserted the vessel just be fore she went down, and who apeak very broken Iinijlihh, information whb secured which lead some to believe that the aoat tipped because the bullast which was left in her was not evenly distributed, but was mostly on one sidi of the boa. It is said that the boat contained about 800 tons of ballast, ;i5U tons having been taken out of her. The Fisher Engineering Company, which bad charge of the work, had the (ipinioiib of the best experts In regard to tbe matter and it was the opinion rf the expert fiat the boat hvi ; i-nt. cf ha'U-1 ,o h r. Ancnors had i-fc.i tunk out in tn-fx-t-an and it wa with ropes runni'ig fmm the baat to t vs an'h'rs anl puwer on land and on tbe boat that the Mimi was beintf re-launched. The Mimi be gan to move toward 4ep waUr a week ago and everything seamed favor able for her re-laanehJng. Too rnueh hasie and not enough precaution was the cause of the terrible disaster. One of the tragedies of the event was the death of Russell Itlackman of Portland who wa married only last Tuesday, April 1st, to Miss May Rob erts, daughter of J. I'. Roberts of Al bany, Oregon. The Mimi a German sailing vessel was 3tranded on the north spit of Ne halem Bsy, February 13, and was left in good condition high and dry on the beach. The Fisher Engineering Co., had charge of the re-launching of the vessel and hail taken the contract for the work which contract provided that the company should receive ilil.OOO when the boat was placed in the Col umbia river or nothing if the attempt was unsuccessful. Tho Mimi is a four-mastod bark of steei construction, 238 feet in length with a 13-foot beam and lil.5 Teut depth. She was built in 1803. Four years ago she loaded in Portland with a cargo of wheat. Her value was esti mated ot t), 000. It is ustimatod that thero were about 1000 people on tho beach, Sunday witnessing the elfort3 of tho life sav ers. Frank 0. Taylor, general agont of the marine department of the Fire man's Fund Insurance Company of Sea attle arrived at the wreck Monday afternoon, Capt. Farley and crew went out Mon day and soeured the bodies of sailor hoy and Koon which were lashed to the Mimi. During an interview last Mondav overling Captain Westphal said : "When tho wave struck the ship I was standing well forward, it caught me and carried me aft, hurling mo into the mizzen ratlines. Hero I clung. Captain Fisher and the cabin boy also bad caught hold, while Captain Crowe and Koon were clinging to a lifeboat close to us. We lashed tho boy fast, but within a faw minutes Captain Crowe's hold had broken and he floated olf. Wo did not see him aguin. Koen called to us that ho was slipping and wo got a rope under his arms and tried to pull him up, Wu raised him two or three feet, but wo were so numbed with cold and hampered by the waves that we could do no more and lashed him there, "Although wc shouted continually, .-ir itim .'a:li-d tn atln. t attention i r fir-- h .'j'-t or morr. nrJ Hft-r tn.it it i is a dreary, hopt-k-n Halt until t'-s.iy. wh'n w erc rfimivnl. fne tiny ili-.j 'thin an hour.

"Shortly after ihrce o'rlock Sunday morning, as I was walking forward lit tell the donkey engine man not to pull the Mimi further seaward, but U an chor where she was, a sudden lur.-h look the vetsel ami I was pinnl to the forward deckhouse by a fallen top apnr. This lurch immediately prer'-ded the capatizing of thr Mimi. I distinctly remember hearing Captain Cnw. speaking, but when we reaehwl there j no one was to be seen nor were thcr j any xigns of life on t ie forward part of the ship nt all. , "Tho donkey engine, mounted there, ' had slid into the sea. After u two-hour! endeavor to prevent sailors from leap ing overboard and telling them that their host course was to stay by th ship, my etforU proved all for naught by their plunging overboard. "Had it not been lor tho seven-foot board that ran around the shin we would have all buen washed sway. To these alone we owe our escape. Until we reached tho extreme aft part of thu vessel no ign of life was to be seen, although we searched all that part of thu vessel that was out of water. Hun- clinging to a lifeboat lathed to the aft i deck, we found Captain Fisher and Torn I Koen. I ? "Grasping for a lifeboat which was ashed round to tho aft deck, we stayed till daybreak, when we discovered that one had slipped down into the water and was nearly submerged. Here wo heard Koen call for help We hastened to pass a lino under his arm", with the assistance of Captain Fisher, and were tli' t rn f 'ifii ti it I . f-rt.

One man went cnuy early Sunday morning, after tb first lurch and betoru sho cnpaizil. "Wu callwl for three houni beforo any oHort was made by tho rruw to launch their boat. I gueit thnv could not hear us ami it was then that wu undertook the dangerous clforU to at tract uttenlion by climbing up in thu c'jppcr ninl waving to thine on shore. With the coming of durhne we gave ourselves up for goners, as we know the tide was higher than that of tho night before and that almost covorod the boat. All night long we cheorod each other by telling of the wreck and situations worse than this, where men had been rescued. "With the coming of dav and tho sighting of tin Garibaldi crow standing by out toward us on the way to our rescue, our hopes rou- higher, f.ildwig, tho boy in the room there, who Is ho weak, stood in water almost Arctic In temperature for iW houni. That ho survived is a wonder and a credit to tho stock from wh'eh he ca:nu. "The moit sickening feeling anyone could havo was experienced when thu last attempt at rescuo failed Sunday night. It looked as though our lives wore to sink out with thu dying sun. iiut we held fast and tirayed. My God, how we nrayi'd and hoped and clung ! It is too hornblu to relate tho horrors of that second night In our danger. Wn On Your Own Account sCsslssW have you any money in tho bank? A part of your earnings ought to bo placed there, anyway.
