Nothing was heard of her to idicate her fate, until some years afterwards the captain of the schooner Herman, of Frisco, found a bottle containing a memorandum written by Chief Officer Patterson, of the lost steamer, which read: Stenmer Pelican, latitude so north, longitude 175 west-the ship is sinking.

The west coast of Vancouver Island, where the wreckage from the missing warship Condor

The winter winds set the seas has been named "the schooner was never heard of after her cruise marine graveyard of the Pacific."

Long before the days when the Golden the Behring Sea, and the Indians of Hind came around the Hom and Drake planter, were dancing a "sarrow dance," in which Quatsino, whose tribesmen were hunters on dered the galleons of Spain, the Indians claim they gash themselves and seratch their bodies, that Japanese junks were driven on the rocky when the Nawitties, a neighbouring tribe, told coast, and some survivors came ashore; in fact, of sighting the schooner with skeletons inshed there is a preponderance of evidence that these to her rigging. Another missing ship of the Indians of the const-who are so different from North Pacific was the barque Nomad, which the red men of the plains and of the inland sailed from Shanghai in December, 1899, her tribes-are descendants of these shipwrecked upturned hulk drifting ashore on the Hawaiian Japanese.

Stones ive been found at some parts of the western coast of British Columbia inscribed with Chinese characters, and when Peking fall into the hands of the allies documents were found there bearing out the contention which was advanced when these finds were made namely, that the Chinesediscovered the western coast of America long before Columbus landed

on the east.

After every storm of winter some grim me -mento comes ashore to tell the sorrowful tale of death. At first it was the then barbarous Indians who cut out the King George ships Tonguin and Boston and slew nearly all their crows, but now the Indians are no longer murderers, and it is only the storm ant of the dangerous currents which add wts to the lengthy list of those whose bones have been left on this coast,"

STORIES OF THE INDIANS.

Of those voseols cut out by Indians the Boston and Tonguin probably produced `the greatest tragedies. On the farmer, but one man, Arm- ourer Jewelt, who long ago wrote a book des cribing his experiences with the Indians, sur vived, and on the Tonguin only the Indian interpreter lived to tell the tale of death, for the survivors of the massacre fired their magazine. and went to death with a large number of their attackers. The last of the Indian murders of this kind was that of the killing of the crew of the barque George S. Wright, which was wrecked near Ahousett by the tribesmen. A warship was sent to shell the village, and one of the Indians guided the warship into the inlet to fulfil the Government vengeance: This un- happy Indian was banished by the tribe, and has just been allowed to return-an old man on the verge of the grave-that he may be buried with his fathers.

It is only within the last thifty years that the full facts of the west coast shipping disasters have been told by the white man, for it is only within that date that the Roman Catholic mis- slonaries blazed the trail to the settlements which followed. One of the pioneer coast missionaries is Father Brabant, of Hosquoit, and soon after be took up his residence among the tribesmen of Friendly Cove it was bis melancholy duty to bury the remains of twelve unfortunates from a Cape Cod brigantine, which was dashed to pieces on the rocks.

POSTED AS MISSING.

Many vessels have been abandoned off the const Boats crews have made the shore, steamers have been lost, and some of their crews lost, and there have been the mysteries of lost ships from which but a nameboard or some scanty wreckage has come ashore to bear evidence of disaster

One of these disasters was that of the barque Dominica, bound from Honolulu to Victoria three years ago. Nothing but a nameboard, picked up by a missionary at Cloose, ever reached the Vancouver Island coast.

The

Carradoc, Cellic, Bard, Andrada, Bertha, Cafe Wrath-each of these vessels, which are now on Lloyd's Lists" posted as missing, are be lieved to have foundered not far from this marine graveyard.
