Port After Battle With Waves.
Portland. Or, Dec. 6.-The British
ship Nelson, which was reported lost
OFF the Columbia river yesterday, was
towed into Puget sound by the steam
er Walla Walla. The hull of the Mel
son is practically intact, but her bull
warks were smashed, Iifeboats and
forerigging carried away and cabins
damaged. There are only three
Inches of water in her bold. but the
extent of the damage to her cargo of
wheat Is not known. The Nelson had
Marvellous escape from destruction,
according to Captain Perriam of that
craft. She crossed the Columbia
river bar a week ago and before she
had gone a great distance she en-
countered severe storm and was
roughly handled. Her cargo of wheat
shifted, causing her to list to star
board and almost on her beam ends.
In this condition she was picked up
by the tug Wallula and an effort made
to tow her to Astoria, but the tug had
to abandon her. Later the powerful
Tatoosh took hold of her, but found
1T impossible to tow her owing to the
fury Of the gale and the high seas.
The captain Of the Tatoosh decided
to tow her to Puget sound, but had
not proceeded far when the gale in

creased in fury and on Tuesday night
at IL o'clock the hawser parted and
the Tatoosh was unable to find the
vessel when daylight came. The Mel
son fired rockets and burned flash
lights all night, but failed to attract
the attention of the vessel.
Yesterday the steamer Walla Walla
picked her up north of Grey's Harbor
A high sea was on at the time and it
was with much difficulty a line was
gotten on board.

The Corn Stalk Disease.

DR.. Sayers of Algona, who is re-
garded as good authority on the sub
ject, was Intercepted by the Upper
Des Moines a few days ago about stalk
dying from eating corn stalks, and ex-
planned what is known thus far about
the matter. He says smut does not
kill stock. That has been tried aud
proven. Cattle can run in stalks with
out any fear of damage from smut
There are three causes of trouble from
running in stalks. First, many cattle
get too much grain. Second, they eat
the dry husks and get too little water.
That packs the stomach and kills them.
Third, there is a corn stalk disease.
No one knows exactly what it is, only
in some fields cattle will die, and in
others not. The same herd has been
taken from a field where some died,
been up in field adjoining where they
had no trouble, been moved back to
the first field and begun to die again.
The cause is undoubtedly some para
site or germ on the corn. The cattle
are usually found dead, not sick
Their bowels are generally a little
loose.
The only thing sure about this dis
ease is that it does not appear in stalks
that have been cut green for fodder.
In Illinois where it used to flourish it
has wholly disappeared since corn is
all cut for fodder. The conclusion is
that the safest way to feed corn stalks
to stock is, on allaccounts, to cut them
in the fall,-Upper Des Moines.

Mr.. Chas Fowls was in town yester-
day. He infoi ms us that he had an
excellent sale the fourth. Everything
brought a price beyond his expecta-
tions. One week from Saturday Mr..
and Mrs. Fowls will sail for England
where they will spend some twelve or
eighteen months visiting old time
friends. Mr.. Fowls will return to
America, but probably not to Craw-
ford county. His health necessitates
living in a warmer climate and he
thinks California will be his home.
We are sorry to have this excellent

NOTES OF THE GAME

NOTES OF THE GAME.
Had jackson played for the two pins
in the seventh frame of the last game
instead of trying to make s'spare"
on that ''split," the Tamm team would
have won that game, thereby winning
the series and placing him in the lead
in the percentage column. The loss of
those two pins gives Schiller lead of
1873 in team percentage. The captain
of every team should watch these APP
parent small things, as many games
are lost in this manner.
If the captains of the different teams
would release their members of the
DenisOn Kids team, we think the KIDS
could organize team that could beat
any five bowlers in Denison.
A small crowd saw the Denison
Kids defeat the Boone sKids" three
consecutive games and total of 257
pins on the Denison Bowling CO.
alleys Tuesday night. This is a great
victory for the benson Kids as the
Boone Kids were the acknowledged
champions of the state for their ages,
which range from l6 to 20 years. The
score as shown below is the highest
that has ever been rolled in Denison
and the third highest game that has
ever been rolled in the state in a con-
test game. The Boone boys did not
bowl in their usual form which was
due to their own carelessness They
arrived in Denison early Tuesday
morning and bowled almost continu-
ally the entire day. When the match
game was called In the evening it
could plainly be seen that the local
team would prove victorious, the visit
ing team appearing more or less ia.
tigued and as the game progressed
their weakness from Overwork was
more in evidence than ever We do
not doubt however that our home team
could defeat the Boone kids at any
time. and we hope a return game will
be arranged In the near future.
Following Is the score by games.

The Presidents FIRST message to con-
gress, is we believe, one of the few
really great papers which have eman-
atea from the executive mansion. The
deplorable event which placed him in
the presidential chair is the opening
chapter in the message, followed by
very vigorous recommendations as to
the way to deal with anarchists, which
will have the utmost approval of the
American people. The document op-
poses tariff revision, strengthening the
navy and extending the merchant
marine, recommends new depart
ment of industry and commerce.
