The velocity ola ship is estimated 10
knots aud tenths of a knot. and the
distance on the log line between two
successive knots or marks is obtained

Casually tweuty-eight), SO is the length
Of sea mile to the length Of a knot.
This gives forey-seveu feet four inches.
Previous to marking the log line it is
soaked in water for few days to get
it into the condition it is when iu use.

A Year Without a Summer.

Under the. above heading CORES
pondent OF, the Louisville Courier
Journal furnishes some interesting and
remarkable facts about the weather in
the year 1916. In view Of the unusual
seasons of this year, brief abstract ot
the weather of that year will be Of
interest.
January was mild. February was
not very cold. March was cold and
boisterous during the first of the mouth.
but the last of the month vas mild.
April began warm, but as the month
advanced it grew colder aud ended in
snow aud ice with temperature like
winter. May Vas more remarkable.
Buds aad flowers we're frozen, ice
formed an inch thick and corn was
killed, and was planted and replanted
agsin until deemed too late. June
was the coldes. ever known. Frost, ice
aud snow were common. Almost
everything green was killed. In some
of the Northern States the snow fell to
the depth of ten inches, and great foods
of water destroyed property from New
York to New Orleans. July was accom-
panied by frost and ice, and nearly all
the corn crops were destroyed. 10
August ice formed half an inch thick.
The greater part of the corn was frozen
and cut down and saved for fodder.
Farmers had to supply themselves with
seed corn made 10 1915 with which to
plant in 1917. It sold at from s. to
s. Z bushel. Flour sold at $13 per
barrel. The month of September was
the mildest Of the season. The same
conditions Of the weather prevailed 10
Europe as 10 America.

the Search For stahl.

J. NJ. Bentley came home this morning
fcom North Yakima. where he went to look
after L. g, Stah,'s atf,irs. Mr.. Stahl was
seen at Deschutes on the Wednesday fol-
lowing the Tuesday when he was last seen
in Pendleton, aud is prcbi ably now in Port
land or in some town beyond, Mr. Rsntley
found that Mr. Stahl had considerable
stock at Yakima, which he owned iu COM
mon with N. Travis & Sons. They had not
heard from the missing man since March l.
a letter was found In Mr.. StahPs cabin
near Nolip from the Travis people stating
that they could not at that time raise any
money for Stahl on account Of the difficulty
In making collections. Mr.. Stahl, on the
day when he was here. had tried to mike
arrangements to raise some money to con-
tlnue hIs farming operations. and failing,
probably either became discouraged ol &C,
count of his business tsoubles or lost his
mental balance and left the country. He
was dressed in his working clothes when
seen at Deschutes, and said he was going
to Portland. Friends here will telegraph
to Portland authorities to kaep LOOKOUT
for Stahl. They believe firmly he has
temporarily lost his mind and fear serious
consequences to him as he roams the
country in that condition.

The O d way and the New.


"Watchman. what of the night" was an
old expression in colonial days, when the
night watcher walked the streets of cities
announcing the hour, with the expression
IAN is weli." Sometimes he changed this,
and at one time in Broadway exclaimed "l2
o'clock midnight, and CORVALLIS has sur
rendered" Again, in the streets of Phil
adelphia, swinging his lantern from right to
left, he proclaimed aloud the hour of the
night. and announced that Burgoyne had
surrendered at Saratoga, TITUS the news
of the world was proclaimed little over
century ago; but this has been changed.
We live in an age of telephones, telegraphs
and Photographs, and on the wigs of the

A battle between the Japanese and Chi

An exchange says that social purity

An exchange says that social purity
has received a great impetus in the
United States through the defeat of
Colonel Breckenridge for congress.
This would imply that the people of
the country have become Indifferent
regarding the purity of the marital
relation, which is not true. The
standard has always been high in this
regard with the defendants of the
puritans. who have impressed on the
nation their pecuilar, religious views
of marriage and the status of society
In the case of this Ken
tuckian the people of that state simply
maintained the high moral standard of
the social relations, which, without the
least disLaragement of other countries,
has always been founded on the basis
Of purity.
