One day he heard the last call
of the death wind as It whistled
through the crevices of his
shake" cabin. And, feeling the
chill creeping over his gaunt
frame, he gave his earthly posses

prepared his family canoe for the
end, and accompanied by other
canoes containing the best rowers
of his people, he padded out
across the purple waters.
At the parting the tribesmen
sang the chant for tho doomed

The Marconi, lumber schoon-
or owned by the Simpson Lumber
company, Is today being dashed
to pieces on Bassendorfs beach,
a mile south of Coos Bay harbor,
beyond all hope of ever being
floated.
The vessel, which was laden
with lumber and bound for South
America, was being towed to sea
by the tug Columbia yesterday
when the rope parted in a squall
and set her adrift in the storm.
The crew escaped in safety.

Marconi's cargo of lumber, valued
at $4,000, will be saved. The
cost OF building the vessel was
$4,000. No insurance was car
ried.

FOURTH OF JULY PICNIC.
An Attraction That May Help the Youngsters
to FORGET Firecrackers

Every mother who appreciates the perlls OF the
national holiday will arrange some amusement
for her children that will keep them out of the
danger zone and divert their minds from the joys
that so often end in tragedy. There could be no
better way of doing this than by arranging picnic
for little folks, and If it is properly managed
and preceded by an automobile or boat trip. or
even a long trolley ride a country road. they
will not regret the frecrackers very much. In
one family at least the plan has worked well and
it may do so in others.
To make the picnic interesting II should be
patriotic affair. and only dishes that are in red'
white and blue should be used. Do not forget a
big cake dressed in patriotic colors Make loaf

and an icing of snowy white with the words

rnent of starting. The excitement and curiosity
thus excited will keep the youngsters from undue
