WATER RETURN.
THE 8.S. TAISANG.
A Fine Plece of Seamanship.
A remarkable pieos of seaman- ship, ooundered by many one of the most remarkable accomplish. ed in the China Sea to recent years, was that of Captain Parkin, in bringing his vessel, the Indo- Chins Steam Navigation Come pany's steamer Taisang, unfoly into port late on Wednesday, after eight days of buffeting with the waves in the Ching Sen with ont. a rudder, says the", Manila Bulletin of January 9.
The Taisang sailed from Manila for Amoy, Chius, on Tuesday afternoon Janusry 9, with_184 passengers on board, When about 235 miles from Manila, the steamer weng into the trough of the Dea and upon investigation it was in the severe buffeting and that found that she had lost her rudder her stern post had snapped in half in the beavy sea that was running,
Usplain Parkin immediately set the crew to work on a jury rudder, bat before the third and successfui jury had been com- pleted the steamer had drifted out of its course for a distance of Jabout 200 miles out iato
