OUR readers will remember that
a few weeks ago an item appeared
in the Seattle "Intelligencer," rela,
tive to the Dungenoss light house
and its keepers. The item was in
serted at the instance, and upon the
authority Of sea captain who I'M

the above.named keepers. Seeing
at once that the publication was cal
culated to work an injustice to the
keepers in question, and feeling GER

them that there must have been a
mistake about the matter, we took it
up and suggested the advisability of

be that in order to economize fuel

Of foggy weather which prevailed
in the months Of August and Sep
tember, and to keep the fog whistle
in repair, it was necessary to stop
the whistle occasionally, for few
hours at a time, for repairs. When
ever the whistle was inactive, how
ever, the old fog bell, used before
the whistle was erected, would be
set in motion. 1t was during one OF
these intermissious that the Barring
Brothers passed by, and a careful
examination of the facts proves the
light keepers 10 have been strictly
obeying orders from the Department

Interests Capt. Tucker in connection
with the affair is to know the reason
why the Captain Of that vessel, if he
saw the light and heard the bell,
wanted to ear the whistle so?
