Fusan Ferry Boat Roas Aground,
It is reported from Moj that when the Shirsĝi Maru, a ferry steamer running between" Shimonoseki and Fusan, was entering the port, she ran an a.. shoal off Sakasaki, but she was able to get off the shoal shortly afterwards. She was not at all damaged. It was expected that the ferry steamer referred to would bring Viscount Uchida, Japanese Ambasador to Pat rograd, but he was not on board.
Smart Rescue.
During recent trip of the.. Knabalu one of the firemen, who was attending to the ash shoot, fall overboard, about 7 miles from Kudat. Capt Griffin, on receiving the report, swung the ship round, lowered a boat into the water and ran the vessel in such a sAR- maalike way as to take the boat right up to the man, who was caught up by two sailors, the whole affair taking only 714 miantes from report to rescue~~
