tending from Seattle 10 Tacoma.
All traffic over the Northern Pacific
and Tacoma-Seattlc interurban lines is at
a standstll. A week will be required

the water subsidies.
These lowlands are thicltly occupied by
small towns, hop fields and dairy farms.
The damage done to fields and herds will
run into hundreds OF thousands OF dollars.
Seattle's milk supply comes from them,

Special to The Herald.
SANTA BARBARA, Feb. flowing
to the threatening weather and the
soggy condition of the course, the
ladies' handicap golf tournament, which
was to have taken place at the coun-
try club yesterday morning, was called
off. The event will be played next
Friday when it is hoped the course
will be in better condition for fast
play.
Santa Barbara's chances for having
representatives in the finals of the
several tournaments, which are sched-
uled to take place during this and next
month, are very bright at the present
time, for there are several of the Coun-
try club players who are doing better
than DOGGY most of the time. Besides
Nat Moore and Alden Swift, who, by
the way, are putting up the best play
OF their golfing career, e. A. Robinson
is showing very high class golf at the
present time. Robinson sprained his
ankle very badly a couple of months
ago, and this, of course, affected his
ability to put up first-class golf under
adverse conditions Thursday morning,
when in four-ball match with Moore
Swift and Redington he played the
first eight holes in DOGGY. And this
during driving rain storm which
bothered the other three considerably
This morning the usual Saturday
sweepstake will be played, rain or
shine. 1t has been suggested by some
of the players that in view of the large
number of entries which have been
received each week, 1t would be pos
sible to cut the pot so that the sec
ond man would receive proportion of
the stake and the third man save his
entry, when fifteen or twenty players
worked to advantage, for it would GER
tainly add to the interest and at the
same time the pot would be quite worth
winning.
The dates of the home-and- home
team match between the independent
teams from Santa Barbara and Los
Angeles, have not as yet been defin-
itey decided. but in all probability the
Los Angeles half of the match will
be played a day of so after the South
ern California championship, which
commences on the 22d of this month
