THE VOYAGE OF THE EDWARd!
SEWALL
(The Edward Sewall is a sailing
vessel which sailed from “The Golden
Gate,” San Francisco in April for
Alaska, for the first time carrying
with her some of tne officials of the
company as well as a salmon crew.
She lay in Larsen’s Bay, Kodiak Isl
and all summer. A physician whose
“nom de plume” appears below wyote
the poem.)
: It was April the tenth for -Masha bent
Did the good ship sail away,
With sails all set and a humfred to
bet
Into port in three weeks and a day.
| So heave the topgallant " my
I Come together and heave away,
; That her prow may lace in the goodly
race
The wild waves lashed with spray.
So steady the sails the wind did fir
Till they tugged at their rope so
taut,
And right through the blue the ket-1
cut through,
And laughed the sea to naught.
Thus blew the wind, till it left behind
The shores in a distal haze;
And on and on like the lilt of a son~
, Toward the last sun’s rays.
And all through tne night in the blight
moon’s light,
So proudly she sailed along;
i And not a care did the skipper share,
As he hummed a lullaby song.
But a friend may be the --->pn sea
For an hour a day or a night;
Yet a fierce wild prey, it can make oi
they,
Who scoff at its quiet might;
For deep in its depths, Almighty so
Itself in a hidden dream,
But once awake, a ship can shake,
And split from beam to beam.
So late one night, when all seemed
right,
Dark clouds began to spread,
And througn the mast th
blast
That would waken th~ long-lost
dead.
From fore to aft, the wind swept fa*
And a gale, full fierce - 1 wild
Caueht up the ship, as she oft did dip,
And tossed like a helpless child.
“Tack her about,” came the mighty
shout
Of the skipper, full weathered and
brave,
Who oft before, in days nf yore
His snip from the blast did save.
But the icf rope, the brine did soak.
And merciless cold got they,
| Till the sailors’ hands lik" cold, steel
bands
Were stiff and numb like clay.
But like a mill tnat bends to the will
Of men who are strong and brave,
About she tacked, nor onthing lacked,
While the howling storm did rave.
j ’ mountains high with a snow
peaked sky,
Mighty the waves rolled in;
While the seething foam sifted ~’~~
Like snow on an iceberor’s rim.
As raged the storm like an uglv -
Grasping at helpless prey,
Down in the hold, the duskies bold
At cards and dice did play.
They came from Savanna and far,
Mexicana,
From islands far out in the sea;
And more than one race was seen in
a face,
'"hat seemed from care to flee.
For all their care but a -moment die
share;
They lived but for the day;
And life did seem a bubble, a dream.
To be lost or won for nay
Still, they did think, as the coins did
clink;
Great wonder, it seemed to me
That men all gone in sin and wrong
Found rest in a surging sea.
Then morning broke, like ox from its
yoke
The good ship raised its head,
And calm did ride like ebbing tide,
While westward fast it sped.
And then at last with fair and blast
Alaskan snows were se^n,
And mountains grand in a silent land
Like silent friends did seem,
Like absent friends the- stretched
their hands
Far out in spits to sea:
For many a mile we saw their smile,
While the sunlight danced with glee
On mountain peak so jagged and steep
As sheer from ocean stone
It lifted form, from all life shoim,
Majestic, silent, lone.
Then up the strait the wind did make, J
And the good ship followed fast ,
With sails full wide, blown out to side,
And straight the iron mast.
In Uyak Bay at last she lay
In one score days and two,
And late one night in pale moonlight
Gave up her motley crew.
And now she rides in drifting tides,
Stately, quiet, still,
With a shadow steep, in waters deep,
Reflecting nature’s skill.
—J. Spencer Sargent.
GOTTUGE Eli! SIREN
SCI BEING HD
___
SEATTLE: When the coastwise
liner Ruth Alexander, shifting from
Tacoma to Seattle yesterday morning,
gave the Admiral docking call of one
long, one short and one long blast
from her siren, many waterfront ha
bitues were startled at the strange
whistle says a recent issue of the Se
attle Post-Intelligencer.
Some though it was some units of
the Pacific fleet calling at Puget
Sound though the blast did not quite
resemble that of a naval vessel. The
harbor department announced the
signalling vessel was the Ruth Alex
ander, and it was once evident that
the vessel had been equipped with a
different sir|i.
On inquiry it was learned that the
big coastwise liner was now equipped
with the siren which once resounded
in Alaskan waters on the old sto« a.- >
ship Cottage City, probably one of j
the most famous of the fleet of gold |
ships. The Cottage City was wreck
ed near Cape Mudge, Valdez island,
January 26,. RTW, after having served
Alaskan points during the peak of the
Northern rush.
in command of the Cottage City at
the time she went ashore in a dense
fog was the late Capt. A. C. Jensen,
one of the veteran navigators in tne
employ of the old Pacific Coast
Steamship Company, owners and op
erators of the Cottage City. When
exonerated of all blame lor the loss
of his ship, Capt. Jensen, who then
returned to piloting, requested that
the siren of the Cottage City which j
possesses a peculiar intonation differ
ent from \her vessels in the Alaska
service, be put in use during his liie
time, and the request tvas heeded by
the old company and likewise by the
Admiral Line which succeeded the
Pacific Coast Steamship Company six
years ago. Capt. Jensen died last
April and Capt. N. E. Cousins, master
of the Ruth Alexander and commo
dore of the Admiral Line fleet, res- j
cued the installation of the siren.

BUCK CIS OUT
Plenty of Seward Readers Have This
Experience
You tax the kidneys—overwork
them—
They can’t keep up the continual
strain.
The back may give out—it may
ache and pain;
Urinary troubles may set in.
Don’t wait longer—take Doan’s
Kidney Pills.
Can Seward people doubt the fol
lowing evidence?
W. H. Thompson, Express Agent,
323 Rancherio St., Santa Barbara,
Cal., says: “I have used Doan’s Kid
ney Pills and found them to be a reli
able kidney remedy. My kidneys were
out of order and I had a soreness and
dull aching acp^s my back. The ac
tion of my kidneys was irregular. I
used Doan’s Kidney Pills and they
gave me relief, strengthening my back
and kidneys. I depend on Doan’s
whenever » m^ Sidneys cause annoy-,
ance.”
Price 60c at all dealers. Don’t
simply ask for a kidney remedy—get
Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same' that
Mr. Thompson had. Foster-Milburn
