Mr.. Rogers, one of the late accessinns
to Port Townseud's population, who

town, has given five acres of it to the
railroad company. Suppose every land
owner on Quimper peninsula would do
nate oue-quarter OF his possessions to
this enterprise! How it would move!
In two years time the other three-quar-
ters would be worth six times as much
as the whole is worth now.
One OF the latest Enterprises urged is
ths opening of a canal or channel
through the upper end of Wh;dby Isl
and, Connecting Holmes Harbor on the
eastern side with Admiralty Inlet on the
west. and shortening the distance by
water between Port Townsend and Sno-
hnmish and Skagit counties some thirty
miles or mere. The distance to cuI
through is only little over a mile, and
the pass is quiz low. 1t is not only
fe8sibls, but would result in immense
benefit.

business matters were discussed. Quite

A German chemist has perfected an in
vention which he hopes will revoutionize
modern warfare. The invention is an
an@sthetic bullet made of brittle sub
stance, which breaks as soon as it comes in
contact with the object aimed at The
hollow bullet is filled with powerful anas-
thetic, capable of producing complete in
sensibility for period of ~ hours At the
end of that time the soldier hit by one of
these missiles revives, practically unharm-
ed. Meanwhile however, according to the
new theory of warfare, he has been packed
into an ambulance and carried off prison
er. 1t would seem that should this method
prove effective in practice, great battles
might be opened by the explosion of single
large bomb of the anRsthetic between the
ranks and really fought out by the ambu-
lance trains. The chief advantage of the
system is that one who fought and swooned
away would be fit to fight another day.
