"KID" CAMP SIGNED.
The Young Twirler on His Way West
Joe LOhbeck Sold.

Joe LOnDeck solo,
The determined effort that the Seattle
club has been making to strengthen its
team has borne fruit in the addition to its
list of pitchers of KID Camp, the star
boxman of the Pacific Northwest League
last season. The young twirler has had
little chance to show what he could do
with the Pittsburg club because of the
abundance of seasoned material on hand,
but the management, recognizing his
worth, held on to him. Some time since,
however, the Seattle club succeeded in pur-
chasing his release. There was consider
able delay in the transfer, but it was
finally made, and the "Kid" is now on his
way to the Coast. He will join the team
at Spokane next week and is expected to
pitch two of the games there. The fol-
lowing week he will be IN Seattle to take
part in the closing series of the first sea-
son, when Portland is here.
The securing of Camp is a stroke OF en-
terprise on par with that of the signing
of Billy Earle The kid" is a great popu-
lar favorite by reason of his fine work
here last season. He pitched in over half
the games played by the Seattle Club. and
made a magnificent record. He and Earle
have been working together a great deal
at Pittsburg this year and ought to make
a winning battery.
With the announcement of the signing
of Camp comes that of the sale of Joe Lob
beck to the Spokane club for good price.
Joe is splendid catcher, but with Billy
Earle to do the bulk of the work and
LANCE in reserve there was no place for
him. He is too good man to play on the
bench, and the management decided to
accept the liberal offer made for his re-
lease. He will play with the Seattle team
until it reaches Spokane. when he will be
transferred 10 Boards team.
Danny Mlnnehan's injured hand is i'm
proving rapidly, and he expects to be able
to JOIN the team at Spokane. Willie LANCE
is able to be about with his lame leg, but
will hardly be able TO play before the team

Associated Press Report.

When the report on the conference COM
mittee OF the river and harbor bill was UNI
der consideration In the Senate today
Squire made forcible speech In
favor of an appropriation of $780,
600 to commence work on what
is known as the Washington canal
in Washington, connecting Lake Washing
ton with Puget sound. He said the great
benefit the canal would confer upon the
commerce of Washington was out of all
proportion to the amount of money to be
expended in this work. He asserted that
not only would it be of immense value to
the great and rapidly growing vicinity Of
Seattle, but to the state of Washington, to
the entire Pacific coast and to the national
interests of the United States. Squire
spoke at length with great earnestness
and held the close attention of the Senate
throughout.

PORTLAND, June 16.-[Special. There
was plenty of everything in today's ball
game. This together with the fact that it
was anybody's game until the last man was
out, delighted the crowd. Manager Barnes
was tride nervous after the seventh in
ming, when a little hit would have tied the
score. The result was that he took Mains
out of the box in the eighth inning and
substituted McNabb.
Irwin made double in this inning, and
In the ninth Leiper was put in between
the points. A base on balls was all that
Seattle could do, and Portland had won
the second game of the series. The fea-
lures of the game were Mains batting, he
making four hits in four times at the bat,
and the catches by Stem el, Burns and
Hernon. A postponed game will be played
tomorrow, McNabb and Cunning pitching.
Today's score:

A NOTABLE PRAYER.

The Petition That First Brought Its
Author Into Notice.
''When Harvard celebrated the end of
the war;" says Julius 81. Ward in the
January New England Magazine, phil
lips Brooks was asked to make the
prayer on the occasion. The man whose
heart and imagination had been fired
to the utmost in the heat of the contest
could not even pray on such an occa-
sion without breaking forth into words
that rose to the greatness of the event,
and Col. Henry Lee, the Harvard mar
shall for that day, once said to me:
The services on that occasion were not
equal to what men felt. Everything
fell short and words seemed to be too
weak. Phillips Brooks prayer was an
exception. That was free speaking
to God, and it was the only utterance
of that day which filed out its mean
ing to the full extent. Lowell's COM
memoration ode was great, and SO was
Gen. Deven's speech. but Brooks sur
passed them BOTH The eager inquiry
Of that day after that prayer was:
who is Phillips Brooks?' 1t was the
first time that he had appeared before
the most distinguished audience that
could be collected in New England, and
from that moment the growing thought
at Trinity church was to induce Bishop
Eastman to resign and to call Phillips
Brooks to the rectorship of Trinity
church.

A wER.EooTEp MAN.
His Fingers Also Were Joined Together
Like n Goose's Toes.

His Fingers Also Were Joined Together
Like a Goose's Toes.
A remarkable operation was recently
performed at the Pennsylvania hospital
upon Pedro Galan, a Mexican sailor lad,
to whom nature had given fingers and
toes Joined by web similar to that of
duck. Galan, says the Philadelphia
Record, is about eighteen years OF age,
and last winter he arrived at this port
as cabin boy, afflicted with this curl
GUS deformity. At the time he suffered
from pneumonia, and became at once
an object Of interest to the hospital
doctors. 1t was noticed that he had six
fingers on each hand, joined by web,
and seven toes on his right foot and six
toes on his left foot, joined by web.
The nails Of Galap's toes are decided
ly peculiar, and at first sight he appears
to have three distinct nails, as the nails
of his toes have two ridges. His large
toe ON each foot Is about two and one
half inches in width.
Such was the strange patient that en-
listed the sympathies Of the doctors.
Galan was the first to speak of his Pc
culiarity, and he requested that he
might be operated upon. His left hand
was operated on in July last, and then
GalaH pluckily requested that his right
hand should be attended to.
The hospital physician went to work
on the patients right hand, and cut the
web between the fingers and then
sewed up the ragged edges of the web.
It has not been determined to operate
on Galan's feet at present, and proba-
bly, when he does leave the hospital his
feet will remain in what assuredly is
their natural condition. Galan will re-
main at the hospital some time yet, and
is a handy man In the wards. In APP
pearance he resembles an Indian, and
Is very much pleased with his Life In
Pennsylvania SO far. Already photo
graphs have been taken Of his feet, and
the pictures have been viewed with in
terest by the medical men to whom they
have been submitted.

The Expense OF Sending Message Under

A glance through the code of ipstruc-

panies shows that there are a number
of places which rarely appear upon the
map that may be reached by wire from
this town. says the New York CONNER
cial Advertiser. For 1925 per word one
may communicate with the hectic town
of Pram Pram, upon the west coast of
Africa, while a connection can be estab-
lished with the lively hamlet of Grand
Bassam, In the same region, at $1.o4

AN uNExPLoRep COUNTRY.

Vast Aren which Has Never Been Salts
factorily Examined by White Men.
The Labrador peninsula, or northeast
territory, contains two hundred and
eighty-nine square piles. This is more
than equal to that of Newfoundland.
several lines of exploration and survey
have been carried for a certain dis
lance into the interior of this great PEN
insula. among which may be mentioned
those of Prof. Hind, A. p. Low and Il.
r. Holme. The limits of the unexplored
area have been drawn SO as to exclude
all these. The area regarded as still un-
explored has, however, it Is true, been
traversed in several directions at differ
emit times by officers OF the Hudson Bay
Company, particularly on routes lead
ing from the vicinity OF Mingan, on the
gulf of st. Lawrence, to the head of
Hamilton inlet, and thence to Ungava
bay. These routes have also, according
to Mr.. Holme. been travelled by mis-
sionary, Pere Lacasse, but the only
published information which I have
been able to find is contained in book
written by ]. Mclean, and in a brief
account of journey by Rev. E. J. Peck,
says writer in Goldthwaite's Geo
graphical Magazine. Mr.. Mclean made
several journeys and established trading
posts between Ungava and Hamilton
inlet in the years 1S39-1s41, while
Mr.. Peck crossed from Little Whale
river, on Hudson bay, to Ungava in
1884. Something may be gathered as to
the general nature Of the country along
certain lines from the accounts given
by these gentlemen, but there is little Of
really satisfactory character, while
neither has made any attempt to fix po-
sitions or delineate the feature Of the
region on the map. In all probability
this entire region consists of rocky
plateau or hilly tract Of rounded arch@-
an rocks, highest on the northeast
side and to the south, and sloping grad
ually down to low land toward Ungava
bay. 1t is known to be more or less
wooded, and in some places with tim
Der of fair growth, but If it should be
possessed Of any real value this may
probably lie in its multifarious depos-
its. In this tract of country particular
ly there Is reason to hope that ore like
those of Tilt Glove, In Newfoundland,
or those of Sudbury, in Ontario, may
occur.
