prophesied that the Columbia would
still excel the new defender were
proved correct, Sir Thomas replied: IT

TWO MEN DROWNED.
Lost Lives While Trying to Save
Stock of Their Neigh.
bors.

Seattle, Jan. 6.-Reports from the
various villages in the White river
valley reveal in some measure the dam
age which the floods of the past forty
eight hours have wrought. So far but
two lives have been sacrificed. and that
no more persons were drowned is con-
sidered little short of miraculous, con-
sidering the short warning which the
inhabitants had of their impending
danger.
Martin Cummings, one of the best
known pioneer rapchers III the valley,
and Edward Shaunessy met death short
ly before dark Sunday evening, while
engaged in an effort to rescue livestock
belonging to their neighbors. The men
were in a rowboat at the time, and were
upset by Il swiftly moving log. Andy
Connolly was also an occupant of the
boat, but he managed to cling to drift
wood until he was rescued. The drown.
ing took place on the farm of William
Cochran, in about ten feet of water.
The property damage will not be so
great as first feared. The food is now
receding.

HON e. fade Velvet.

As panne velvet Is used so much for
belts, bodice trimmings, hats, crush
collars and the like. it is a JOY to the
economical housewife to realize that
in her scrap bag she can undoubtedly
find material enough to help out her
winter costumes.
The directions for transforming pin
rricked, shabby velvet into the more
fashionable textile are: Use for the
purpose q good steelfaced iron, per-
fectly clean and smooth on both sides
and face. Have the iron only mOder-
ately hot. Spread the velvet face up
ward on clean ironing board and
smooth it with the iron, taking Sreat
pains to press the right way of the
nap, as it must be irOned the way the
pile faces best. Keep the iron moving
all the time, for If allowed to stand at
all it leaves a mark that you cannot
get out.
After going all over the surface of
the dry velvet. ironing always in the
same direction. steam the velvet thor
oughly and then 80 over it second
time. You cannot press too much, pro-
vided you always keep the iron run
ming with a heavy. even stroke. This
soon transforms it into the fashionable.
shimmering panne.

COAL IN SENATE
Proposed to Remove the Tariff for
Ninety Days.

Ninety Days.
Washington, Jan. 6. When the SEN
ate recon~ened after the holiday recess,
but few senator's were absent. Almost
Immediately discussion began regard
ing the coal situation. Mr.. Lodge an
nounced his introduction of bill sus-
pending for ninety days the duty on
coal, with the statement that in New
England there was much distress ow-
ing to the scarcity of coal, and that I'M
less relief was afforded soon a number
of factories would have to shut down.
Mr.. Culberson followed with a reso-
luton providing for the removal OF the
duty on anthracite coal, and asked it's
immediate consideration.
Mr.. Plat OF Connecticut objected,
saying it was his understanding that
there was no duty on anthracite coal.
MIR. Vest took exception to this state
ment, and said that the board of gem
eral appraisers and President Roosevelt
had decided that such duty is imposed.
Mr.. Vest also introduced resolution
on the subject.
Another resolution bearing on the
subject of coal, introduced by Mr..
Jones, of Arkansas, recited the charge
Of W. r. Hearst that there was
an illegal combination among certain
railroads to control the shipment OF
anthracite coal, and called on the at
torney general for the evidence which,
it was alleged, had been secured by him.
1t caused lively debate. in which
several Republican senators vigorously
resented what they thought was a re-
Election on the attorney general.
The DISCUSSION continued until
o'clock, when the resolutions went
over, being displaced by the omnibus
statehood bill.

KEEP OUTSALOONS
REMEDY FOR CONDITIONS AT
BREMERTON.
Bill to be Introduced in Coming Ses-
sion of Legislature Which will
Prohibit Sale of Liquors Within
Mile of Uuited States Naval
Station.

Seattle. Jan. 5.-The agitation over
the navy department action in refus-
ing to send any more ships to the Puget
Sound navy yard until the department
officials have been assured that Bremen
ton has received a moral cleaning has
resulted in number of remedial prop
ositions. One of these is bill, drafted
by Judge r. A. Ballinger, which will
be introduced in the next legislature
by one of the King county members,
which prohibits the sale of Intoxicating
liquors within one mile of anv naval
reservation in the state of Washington.
The bill is said to be the outcome of
several consultations which Judge Bal
linger had with the officials of the navy
department during his recent visit to
Washington. 1t is claimed by the
friends Of the navy yard that the adop
ton of such law will change the de-
partment's attitude, and will result in
a renewed activity for the navy yard.
The bill is as follows:
An act to prohibit the sale of intoxi-
eating liquors within one mile of Uni
ted States Naval reservations.
Be it enacted by the legislature of
the state of Washington:
Section l. That it shall be unlawful
to sell or dispose OF any vinous, spirit
uous, malt or other Intoxicating liquors,
with or without license, within one
mile of any naval reservation or station
OF the United States government within
the state of Washington, which said
naval reservation is occupied by the
United States government, and upon
which there are stationed any soldiers,
sailors or marines in the service of the
UnitedStates.
See. Amy pe1s or persons vio-
lating the provisions of section l OF this
act shall be deemed guilty of misde-
meanor, and upon conviction thereof in
any court of competent jurisdiction
shall be punished by fine of not less
than 800, nor more than 81 900, or by
imprisonment in the county jail for a
term Of not less than six months nor
more than one year, or by both such
fine and imprisonment.
Sec. 3. An emergency is hereby de-
clared to exist, and this act shall take
effect Immediately.

Do Men Prefer Bruuettes?

The popular heroine in q story book
Is usually blonde. She has hair OF the
color of ripe corn, eyes blue as violet,
the complexion of a wild rose, and lips
of ruby red. Ii dark woman appears
at all, she Is merely introduced as the
enemy of the golden-haired one, and Is
quickly disposed of.
In real life things are very different:
the heroine of most love stories Is
dark, the yellow-haired girl is at a dis
count, nine out of ten men preferring
her brown-tressed sister.
Why? Well, in the first place hair
Of corn-ripe gold is one of the things
one often reads about, and very seldom
sees, and the ordinary tiaXen monde
script tints which are summed up In
the term blonde are apt to strike man
as insipid. Then, too, he has feeling
quite absurd. l dare say-that q fair
woman does not possess as much depth
Of nature as dark one. AS matter
Of fact. the golden-haired girl may be
as capable of passionate extremes as
black-haired one, but somehow the
idea is fixed in the minds Of most men
that fair woman is placid by nature,
amiable, indolent. and sure to become
portly in middle life.
"They may be prettier, perhaps they
are" young fellow confessed the
other day, but there's no fire in them"
Certainly, as general rule, dark
girls are more vivacious, more spirited,
more full Of vigor, and decidedly less
inclined to be anemic.
The man who wants a good chum, an
intelligent companion and sweetheart
capable Of intense emotion. has bet
ter chance of finding her among the
dark-haired portion Of his acquaint-
ance than in the ranks Of the light
haired.-New York News.

COURTS TO DECIDE.
Controversy Between Two Catholic
Elements i'm the PHILIPPINES,

Washington, Jan. 2-Secretary Root,
by decision just rendered, practically
has thrown into the hands of the civil
courts in the Philippines for decision
the controversy between the two ele-
ments in the Catholic church in the
islands, which has developed into an
acute schism. The schismatics, under
the leadership of priest known as
Aglipah, retained possession OF a large
amount OF church property which is
claimed by the Catholic church, and
the latter appealed to Goyernor Taft to
disposess the schismatics. The COVER
nor held that the qNestion was one for
the adjustment of the civil courts, and
the case came to Washington on appeal.
Secretary Root has sustained Governor
Taft's views. The Importance of the
matter to the United States govern
ment lies in the fact that the property
in controversy is part of that to which
title must be passed on by the United
States if negotiations now in progress
between Governor Taft and Mgr. Guidi
succeed.
