HERO OF "SEA WOLF"
Jack London's Original Vessel Will Go
Into Guano Trade.

The schooner Carmencita, more or
less famous through her vicisstudes
under many flags, and which was
made immortal through being the
original of the schooner Ghost in
Jack London's novel, the "Sea Wolf"
is once more under the stars and
stripes and will soon be started on
the prosaic work of transporting
guano from Lower California to san
Diego. says a Seattle dispatch.
The vessel was recently purchased
from the British government, which
seized her, by George Bergmaster of
San Diego. She was taken to Port
Townsend and loaded with lumber
pending action of application made to
the treasury department for restorn-
tion of American register. The re-
quest was also made that the vessel
be re-christened the Ramona d. Re-
turns were received this morning
which permit the vessel to return 10
the American flag, but instead of Ra-
mona ID. she will be the Jennie The
lin. under which name she was orig.
inally built and launched.

rived in the city yesterday and stated
last night that although the state
could not be a member of the asso-
citation, 1t was prepared to pay its just
share of the cost Of patrolling the for
ests.
Superintendent Theodore Fohl, who
directed the patrol of the forests,
stated last night that the cost of the
seasons work would amount to
about $1,000, which is considered a
very low figure when the Clearwater
Lumber company alone last year eX-
pended in the neighborhood of S16,-
600 beside suffering loss from fires.
Mr.. Munson said yesterday that the
state in 1905 paid out $1,000 to pro-
tect its timber. Superintendent Fohl
is of the opinion that next year he
can reduce the cost of the combined
patrol to about $4,000. This, of
course, excludes the cost of horses and
equipment and the expenditure for
trail buildings. all of which added to
the expense this year.
The patrol under Mr.. Fohl covered
80 townships containing upwards OF
eight billion feet of standing timber.
OF this amount less than 100000 feet
was lost by fire, a remarkable show
ing. Forty different fires were put
out before any great damage had been
created. and of this number all but
two were extinguished by the patrol.
These exceptions were due to several
fires occurring at the time and the
services of the patrol could not be
spared from more vulnerable places.
The heaviest loss occurred when 10
acres were consumed by the flames.
When the patrol went into the tim
Der it found that the old trails had
not been touched in four years and
considerable clearing had to be done
before camps could be, established
and the patrol regulated. Besides the
old trails 80 to 40 miles of new trails
had to be cut through dense timber.
This materially added to the expense,
but to a great extent 1t VIII be elm
mated next year
The members of the association are
greatly pleased with the excellent
showing made by Superintendent Fohl
and the men under his direction from
July until the first of September.
