ASTORIA FIRE ladies
VICTORIOUS AT OREGON CITY
Come Out Ahead in Dry Test But Lose
Wet Test Run On Fluke.

Astoriais hose tea mat the races at
Oregon City Monday, were the victors
in the dry test making the run in 81
seconds and winning by 5 As seconds
over Vancouver, who took second place
with a run in 80 AS seconds. Oregon
CITY, in this race, made the run in "a
l.2 seconds, but was disqualified for
not having the nozzle on three full
turns.
/. The showing made by the Astoria
boys was excellent, the run being made
up q slight incline and their cart and
hose weighing 800 pounds more than
that of the Oregon City aggregation.
In the wet test, which was run Mon
day morning, the Astoria boys lost on
a fiuke. The run was $50 yards to q
hydrant, 300 feet of hose being un-
reeled, q connection made, nozzle plae.
ed on and water obtained. The time
was taken from the time of the start
to the time the water first came from
the nozzle.
Vancouver made the run in 50 As
seconds, and Oregon City in 3s l-2. The
Oregon City team was unfortunate in
this race, the nozzleman slipping and
falling. That Astoria lost was due to
johnson, who was to break the coup
ling where the nozzle was to be attach
ed, becoming confused and running too
far. Knutsen remedied the error, but
too late for any good.

Lest the same fate as that Of the
French submarine Farfadet, in which
the whole crew were drowned when
the vessel refused to rise after i'm
mersion, should befall our ~plungers,
the department Of construction and
repair at the Brooklyn navy yard has
begun the task of equipping the sub
marines at the yard with heavy
shackles and other apparatus for
singing submarines into place or for
lifting them from the bottom in the
event of their becoming disabled. OFF,
cial accounts of the accidents which
befell the French and English subma-
rines show there should be some way
to lift a, diving ship when it is dis
abled, especially when lives can be
saved by the prompt raising Of the
craft.
II has also been decided by the au-
thorities Of the navy department that
a tender shall always be kept with
the submarines when they are at prac.
tice. 1t is believed that the methods
which the experts at the Brooklyn navy
yard have put into effect will afford
full protection to submarines engaged
in practice. In actual warfare it is
not expected the surface facilities Of
restoration could be used, but evon in
that case the shackles, which will be
with the submarines when they
ire at practice. II is believed that
he methods which the experts at the
