HOLE BORED IN BOTTOM.
Third Attempt Made to Wreck the
Connecticut.

New York, Oct. 3.-The Herald says
a third attempt has been made to wreck
or seriously injure the battleship Con-
necticut, just launched. The guards
on the battleship have been strength
ened and the sentinels understand that
if they kill a man in the act of trying
to injure the ship they will receive the
thanks of the navy department.
The story also says that six months
ago it was found that holes had been
bored through the center of the rivets
in the hull, allowing leakage. This
act was discovered and new rivets in
serted.
The second attempt was made when
the ways were INSTRUCTED with bolt
an inch and half in diameter before
the launching.
The third effort to disable the ship
was discovered soon after the vessel
touched the water In one of the COM
partments water was discovered. 1t
entered through hole bored straight
through the keel plate instead of the
rivets. The compartment quickly
filled and immediate steps We're taken
to pump it out. So far as now known
the battleship is now intact.

ArmV Mule Displaced.

Vancouver. Wash, Oct. 4.-The de-
partment of the Columbia has decided
to do away with army mules hereafter
and will use horses in all places where
mules have been used. A bid has been
received from Portland man Offering
to supply all the horses needed at $3.50
per span. The contract requires the
very best of animals, free from upper
fections. 1t has been found recently
that the mules are too slow to haul the
fire apparatus recently installed at the
garrison, and they have been found in
adequate to the needs of the teamsters
in other ways. The mules now on
hand will be disposed of to farmers
and others for general work.

Especial Feeling of Good Will in
Peru Noted.

Peru Noted.
New York. Oct. 3.-Conditions in
Peru, political and industrial, We're
never more favorable than now, &C
cording to Irving b. Dudley, the Amer
lean minister to that country, who has
just returned to spend few weeks at
his home in California. Toward the
United States there is an especial feel
ing of good will, he says. Commerce
with this country, already one of
Peru's largest interests, is steadily on
the increase.
There is no danger of an overturn-
ing of prosperity because of revolu-
tons or internal dissensions, the min
lister added. The Peruvians have a
particular liking for the United States.
which country now stands second as to
commerce with Peru, and is gaining
in the amount of business transacted
all the time. Large amounts of Amer.
lean capital are being invested there,
and the business men of Peru wei
come it.

mrs. J. S. p. AND THE
LONG BEACH FLEA
(By u. Delight Pinney)

The flea, the flea, the festive flea,
That nightly banquets over me,
He'll forward prance and take a bite,
Then turn and bite, will dance to RICH
Then to the left and pirouette
AS though his appetite to whet.
And all the time he eats away
Like tramps who have no bills to pay,
And like them. always on the go,
His only virtue that | know.
Is that he sings no little song
TO guy us as he hops along.
The flea, the flea. the nimble flea,
If | were only spry as he
I'd even up the grudge l hold
Against this tiny villain bold.
But as ! strive his course to stay
He's skipped around thei other way.
That flea, that flea that madcap flea,
Again he ScrambleS over me,
And now again l try to check
His gay career and break his neck,
But on he goes and bites away,
For he has come, and come to stay.

CANAL AT SEA LEVEL.
American Engineer Makes Most I'm
pOrtant Discovery.

Chicago, Oct. 3.-Ceorge Ehle, an
American engineer, with party of
young college graduates, in four
months has made discoveries about the
Panama canal which French engineers
failed to make in fifteen years. His
information makes it possible to solve
the battling problem of the Chages
river freshets by diverting the stream
to the Pacific coast. 1t also releases
SEC, 900, 900 for excavating a sea level
waterway.
This announcement of the engineer
ing work thus far done by the United
States Panama canal commission has
been made before the Chicago Press
club by Chief Engineer John F. Wal
lace, who recently returned from the
isthmus.
''In their explorations, said the
chief engineer, Resident Engineer
George Ehle and his college lads en-.
dured hardships that it took American
pluck to overcome. They spent four
months in the tropical jungle, tracing
the course and source of the Chagres
river, whose spring freshets, sometimes
forty feet high, SO far have proved an
insuperable obstacle to the sea level
canal project"
By the use of data collected by the
Ehle party, Mr.. Wallace said that it
would be possible to divert the Chagres
river from the Caribbean slope to the
Pacific side of the isthmus. This
could be done at an approximate cost
of SIG, 600, 900, releasing the 500, OO0,-
600 of the $50 600, 900 destined for the
construction of locks.

Secretary Durbin announced yester-
day that Joe Fox had protested the
game played at indianapolis on Tues
day night, when Farrell played for
Manager Cohen. The protest is based
upon a statement by Manager Petty
alleged to have been made to Fox to
the effect that Farrell has never been
released by Muncie, but only benched,
and that, therefore, he could not be
loaned to indianapolis nor signed
there. Indianapolis Journal.
Harry Thornburg, timekeeper at
the polo game, says there was no as
sault on him. Manager Fox only
grabbed his hand in which he held
the watch and Manager Henley threw
his arm around Fox's neck The gong
rope was held, but Harry managed to
pull it. Mr.. Thornburg and others
say Fox had his watch in his pocket
at the close and didn't know anything
about the time.
