NAVY IN NEED OF BLUEJACKETs
Recruiting Officers Are Experiencing
Trouble in Securing Men to En-
list in Service.

WASHINGTON, D. c., May 25.-
Naval officers who have charge of re-
cruiting are much disturbed over the
prospects of additional requirements
likely to be made in regard to the ac-
ceptance of those who apply for en-
listment. 1t is realized that any addi-
tional precautions taken with a view
to preventing the enlistment of minors
will be quite as successfully evaded
as any of the existing regulations.
The requirement of a birth certificate
will be met by impostors with a forg-
ed document, as is sometimes done
when it becomes necessary to produce
guardianship papers. 1t will have one
effect, naval officers say, that of pre-
venting the enlistment Of men who
cannot produce the certificate and who
really want to enlist and remain in
the service, where they would make
good bluejackets. The agitation is
destined to become a substantial block
to naval enlistment. The officers also
feel keenly the criticism which has
been visited upon them for their post
ers advertising recruiting offices and
showing the advantages to recruits
Much time has been spent on these
posters, to make them decorative and
attractive and, of course, they do not
in the least misrepresent naval SER
vice or the rate of compensation for
the enlisted force.

Woman Declares That Seattle MI
Be Next.
SAYS The CITY WILL Be DESTROYED
Warns the People to Flee Before May
27-Entire Country 10
Doomed.

Seattle will be destroyed by an
earthquake during the last week of
May, according to prophecy made by
Mrs. Margaret Albright, OF 418 Rainier
avenue, Georgetown. Mrs. Albright
says she is a prophecies, and as such
she advises all residents Of the city
to leave before May q, and take their
possessions east of the mountains. She
declares that when the earthquake
west of Sioux Falls, says the Seattle
Times.
Mrs. Albright, who is SO years old,
says that she has informed Bishop
O'Dea and other prominent churchmen
of what is to come, but complains that
they refuse to place any credence in it
in fact, that they ridicule her. Mrs.
Albright has never practiced prophecy
for money because she says it is
God-given gift and it is her duty to
make known to all without price or
compensation the glimpses Of the flu
ture which come to her.
Her special performance of the de-
struction of Seattle will be accom-
plished by an earthquake, while tidal
wave will sweep Bremerton, Gray's
harbor and other cities out of exist
ence. She declares that she has seen
a fine picture of Queen Anne Hill be-
ing Quilted by flames
The destruction is also scheduled to
wipe out Minnesota, according to the
woman's story, and portions Of the
south are also doomed.
Warned San Francisco.
Mrs. Albright declared yesterday
that she visited San Francisco in jan
uary and called upon the clergymen
of the city, urging them to warn the
people to flee from the. earthquake
that she foresaw. They all ridiculed
her, she says. When the clergy refus-
ed to treat her tale seriously she says
she went to the Preside and Golden
Gate park, and at each place tasted
and prayed for three days to purify
it to receive those whom providence
ordained should escape from the
earthquake and fire. She declares that
it was only her fasting and prayers
| that made these two places a refuge
for the unfortunate.
Mrs. Albright declares that the Wis
ion of Seattle and the adjoining ter
ritory being wiped out by earthquake
came to her at Ballard early in April.
At that time she visited the city of
single mills to look at some property
she wished to purchase. AS she was
| leaving she says that she saw a new
moon. AS she walked away the moon
followed her. Then she heard voice
! instructing her to lodge in Ballard for
the night. She engaged a room, and

ments were hanging over his head, he
undertook to get title to several thou
sand acres Of state school lands
through dummy entrymen, whom he
procured to make perjured applica-
lions.
State Land Agent Oswald West de-
tected the fraud and the attempt was
nipped in the bud. But Puter only
sought a new means of getting money
dishonesty. He began the systematic
counterfeiting of state school land GER
tificates and soon gathered around him
a number Of his old confederates. The
story Of their operations is well known.
Among their victims were Hiram Cod
dard, Hyskell Withee, Henry Salzer and
F. s. Tiffany, all wealthy residents of
La Crosse, Wisconsin, and Wade H.
Richardson, whom President Roosevelt
nominated several months ago for post
master Of Milwaukee. Wisconsin.
Operations on Huge Scale.
The operations Of the gang were on
a huge scale and were carried on with
extraordinary daring. Finally the sus-
picions of State Land Agent Oswald
West were aroused and he began an
investigation which laid bare the
frauds They were even more spectac-
ular than Puter's earlier frauds in
government lands. The result was an
indictment by a Marion county grand
jury and the institution Of a vigorous
search for the swindlers. For months
the state authorities have been acting
in concert with the government in the
effort to apprehend Puter and his con-
federates.
+ Will Be Sentenced at Once.
Puter is at last at the end of his
rope. 1t was announced this morning
that he will be brought back to Port
land Immediately for sentence under
the conviction obtained a year and a
halw ago, and that he will also be
tried on the other indictments pending
against him in the federal court. Unit
ed States District Attorney Bristol
states that it is the purpose of the
government to press all the charges
against the arch swindler. No prom
Uses of immunity have been given and
escape from the penitentiary now
seems impossible.
In addition to the trouble which
awaits Puter at the hands of the gov
eminent, the state authorities also pro-
pose to prosecute him to the limit of
the law. Governor Chamberlain has
declared his intention of seeing that
Puter is made to pay the penalty for
his school land frauds, and the evil
dence gathered by State Land Agent
West is believed to be ample to secure
conviction. District Attorney McNary,
of Marion county, laid this evidence
before a grand jury of that county, and
it resulted in two indictments, one of
which was made public for the first
time through the columns of The Jour-
nal the day after Puter's recapture.

Science of Weed Control,

The problem of keeping down weed 6
in the corn field is a great one as the
more weeds the less corn. The best
way to keep them down is to never
allow them to attain any size The
ground should be worked with a disc
or harrow thoroughly before planting
ltne corn. The ground should then be
narrowed before the corn comes up
and again when the corn is only few
inches high. Then it should be cult
fated often enough to keep weeds

sons for Her Theories.
We forget who 1t was that coined
the phrase. "all big things come from
Chicago" but we would like to add
that occasionally some big thoughts
are also born In that metropolis of
the West.
A Chicago teacher. .who we may add
Is at yet heart and husband free,
evolved the interesting theory that as
q life companion a cat is far more
preferable than a man.
After enumerating the faults of an
average husband, she proceeded to
tell of the high qualities of cat, and
when she came to that part in her ora
ton when comparisons became neces-
sary, poor husbands had not leg to
stand on.
The three strongest points that she
made we're that cats trim their own
whiskers, never complain and, IL they
happen to come home late in the wee
small hours, they do not invent ex-
cuses, and though guilty of misbe-
havior, they never walk diagonally
across the room, chewing a second
rate cigar and vainly endeavoring to
make themselves understood

the better of 1t, and so far no de-

there is a difference, and It's mighty
interesting. too.
One person will offer you a big

hearty shake, while another hand that
is Just as big and trawny will feel
like a log.
Some one else will offer you a
hand that you could reach around
with your little finger, and yet the
grasp is warm and sympathetic, while
the same hand worn by another will
feel like a slender icicle, and the
quicker you let go the better.

long hands, the short hands mot

other kinds of hands, but 1t all de-
ponds on how the wearer uses them
as to whether or not you care to
shake again.
The manner OF shaking is worth
noticing also. Some folks come tc
you with straight arm jab, others
us. a cherry picking movement and
make you reach up to level with
your forehead, others grab your hand
as low down as possible, while there
are others wbo bend their arms sc
that you not only shake again, but you
rub arms from the elbow 20 the
fingers.
And then there are those who
