BURNING AT SEA.
Gasoline Schooner on Fire and Crew
Believed to Have Perished.

Seattle, Wash, June 15.@The gaso-
line schooner Argus is burning, 35
miles off Destruction island and ac-
cording to the story told by Captain
George E. Bridget of the steamer
Asuncfon. Pacific Oil company's line
steamer, it is not likely that the crew
will ever be heard from. Captain
Bridget thinks the crew were blown
up in an explosion which caused the
fire. Captain Bridget says that he
went alongside of the Argus and that
at that time the vessels hull and bow
were burned away. The Argus was
bound from Puget Sound to San Fran
cisco with cargo of 10000 feet of
lumber. She was built in 1902 and had
net. She was owned by the Pacific
Ship company of San Francisco.
Another point mentioned by Captain
Bridget. which seems to give force to
the story that the crew persisted in an
explosion. is that the lashings on the
boat were not touched.

part devoted to Daniel Boone. The
great floral parade took place today.
There were eight divisions in the

OF Daniel Boone came later in Chero-

The case of Brown of Harvey has
come to light again and he has been
sentenced to pay a fine of 500 and to
serve one year in Bridewell prison by
Judge McEwan of the criminal court
OF chicago. He was convicted last
November of attempted subornation of
perjury. Brown was formerly a promi-
nent Kansas attorney and served in
the Kansas legislature from Newton.
He was one of the most noted
men of the Kansas legislature and was
equally prominent as a member of the
Kansas bar. A Chicago paper of re-
cent date says:
The criminal prosecution against
Brown grew out of a hearing before
Master in Chancery Rush last spring,
when the lawyer is said to have pro-
duced Detective Chas. T. Haas to tes-
tify regarding the identity of VIM. Bar
ton. Instead Of giving this testimony
Haas exposed the alleged attempt at
subornation Of perjury.
In passing sentence Judge McEwen
said in all his experience in criminal
cases he never had heard a witness
falsify as did Brown in the hearing Of
the criminal case.
g The lies were not even clever said
the court The lawyer also has been de-
barred from practice in Illinois"

CoMATENDs GAS COMPANY WORK
City Engineer McCabe Says People
Must Be Patient.

"The gas company is making the re-
pairs in the streets which they have
torn up in a manner which is to be
commended said City Engineer Nc
Cabe today.
when there are about 1900 exca-
walton permits issued in a month, it IS
a hard matter to catch all the places
needing repair and it takes time to
tend to them. Many of the places
have been gone over by the gas com
pany three and four times. The peo-
pie forget that there Is much of this
work and that it can't be all done at
once. George Griggs, my paving in
spector, is honest and faithful. He
gets around and has been very instru-
mental in getting the pavements fixed
up where they should be fixed but It
is utterly impossible to get all the
pavements repaired at once. The gas
company buys new brick right along
to put in where they think the old
brick is too badly knocked up to be
put back This is sample of the
work that they are doing
They have also engaged a land
scape gardener to fix the parkings
after the mains have been laid. What
there should be, is the appointment of
an additional paving Inspector"
