The anchor was let g0 and it held too well, tearing the hawse- ipe out of the ship and nearly all of the bow of the ship with it. The Highlandet was afterward got off and her cargo was saved. “The first vessel that I remember being wrecked on Arch Rock,” continued Cap- tain Boyd, “was the pilot boat Sea Witch. That was in 1855. All the pilots had ‘boarded off’ and the schooner was com- g in in charge of the boat-keeper. There was a dense fog and the boat- keeper mistook Arch Rock for a sloop under sail and getting his course accord- ingly made the mistake of his life. All hands were saved, but the Sea Witch was & total loss. L ““I'ne next wreck was that of the clip- per ship Flying Dragon in the winter of 1%61-62. She made the fastest run on rec- ord from Newcastle, N. S. W., 35 days, and anchored off Melggs wharf. Captain Watson, the well kKnown marine surveyor, was in command of the vessel, but the pilot was gtill in charge when ‘the acci- dent happened. A sudden change of wind and a flerca squall drove tne Flying Dragon down on the Rock and she be- came a total loss. “The next vessel lost on the rock was the baik Autocrat in 1869. She was loaded with coal a drifted down to her doom in a dense fg. Since that time number- less vessels have made the acquaintance | of Arch Rock and always to their disad- vantage. The old ferry-boat Clinton went on one of its ledges in a fgg and the gteamer Oregon, now running between the Sound and Nome, lost her bilges on it. The old bark Cohimbia stuck on it for a day 2nd a night, and last of all, the bark Ceylon drifted down on it a few months ago and was gaved by the quarantine eteamer Sternberg. As it was, the Cey- lon lost all her shedthing. It would take a page to give the number of vessels_that have just escaped going on Arch Rock by slipping their cables, and when the contractors come to boring I'll guarantee they will find more chath and anchors than rock.” In the old days it was a favorite amuse- ment for the young men of North Beach | to wait for a very low tide and then null | a boat through under the arch. | arch in 1857, Captain Frank Murphy, one of the best known of the pilots, pulled a whitehall through the Two of the crew of the pilot- boat Golden Gate pulled a vawl through in 1850, and then a couple of years later a couple of men tried to repeat the trick, but a heavy swell was rolling in through the Golden Gate and they were crushed against the mfi of the arch. Since that time rowboats have kept away from Arch R ock. It has often been suggested to have a lighted buoy on Blcssom Rock and Pre- ridio Shoal, Blossom Rock having only 191, fest on it and Presidio Shoal only 14% feet at low water. It might be said that when lights on Alcatraz or Yerba Buena or North Head and Fort Poin: can be secen there is no reason for gzetting close to these dangers, but when the curtain of fog falls suddeniy at night after passing in- side the Heads there is not much time to choose positions, especially on a flood tide, Three Vessels in Collision. The schooners Guide and Premier ar- rived from coast ports Monday night. The wind fell light as they were sailing up the bay, and off Folsom street they came together. Both schoonérs drifted down_or. the naval resgrve steamer Ma- rion, but no damage was done to her; but the littie ship Portsmouth that was used in the parade and was riding beside the old sioop-of-war was dismasted. Later the tug Ida W cleared the vessels and took the Premier to Mission Bay. The Guide, left to herself, drifted down on the cable, and ail of yesterday communica- tion with Oakland by telephone was stop- ped. Damage to all the vessels except the Fortsmouth was light. Sailing of the Thomas. The transport Thomas got away for Ma- nila yesterday. She took along a number of recruits and several nurses. ‘Water Front Notes. Captain M. A.

The officers of the United States hos- pital ship Solace will pay duty on the goods they brought over from China, after all, but they will make their pay- ments in the shape of fines rather than duties. Chauncey M. St. John, Chief Deputy Surveyor of the Port, and J.

The goods consist of 135 packages of silks, chinaware and other goods. - —_—————— If you.want to enjoy your lunch, call for Ralnier beer, » FAMOUS AMERICAN ART GALLERIES. + Copyright, 1900, by Seymour Eaton.

Earller back we have the great Constable, who may be said to be the father of the French school of the “men of 1830, as they are called, who were so attracted by the work of this distinguished English painter and the re- markable colorist, Turner, beloved of Ruskin, whose writings helped to draw attention to the man. By him there are two important examples, and then we go further back to the distinguished group of Georglan painters, often referred to as the *“Early Englishmen,” sturdy portrait- ists and painters of our ances I{ ac s, the sea. Virile old Sir Joshua Reynolds, sturdy Raeburn, brilliant Gainsborough Hoppner, Romn and all the rest of them mmay be seen ar analyzed.
