ATTEMPT TO KlDNAP GIRL;
WITNESS AGAINST GROWER
Men Climbing Ladder to Window
Frightened by PaSserby

SAN BERNARDINO, Dec. 11.-A sem
sational attempt to lSidnap Miss Ludti
valentine, a 10-year-old girl of a well
known Ontario family, from the deten-
ton home in this city late last night
has caused furore. The girl is held
at the home as witness against M
Akers, an orange grower of the west
end of the county.
The would-be kidnapers placed a lad
der against the side of the house un-
der the window of the room where Miss
valentine is confined. They were in the
act of entering the room when passer-
by discovered them and gave the alarm
The men escaped.
Considerable mystery is attached to
the affair for the reason that the sup
posed detectives, said to be employed
by a Los Angeles agency are in the
city presumably working on the case.
Akers has been released on bail and
has retained Earl Rogers to fight the
charge

Two Hundred Citizens Killed or
Wounded While Watching
Bombardment of Buildings
HEAVY LOSS OF MUTINEERS
Troops of Government Again Sc
cure Control of Garrison on
Cobra Island
Associated Pressl

RIO JANEIRO, Brazil Dec. 11.-Gov-
ernment troops are again in control. of
the garrison on Cobra island, and the
second mutiny of the naval force has
ended with heavy casualty list, but
in way that probably will prevent
further risings for some time.
The mutineers who composed a bat
talon of the marine corps, numbered
about 600 men OF these 200 were killed
or wounded, and the others were taken
prisoners by the destroyers while try
ing to escape from the island in the
night.
Two hundred citizens were either
killed or wounded while watching the
bombardment from the streets, or along
the water front. Many government
buildings were damaged including the
treasury, the foreign office and the
departments Of public works and tele-
graph.
MUTINEERS ARE CAPTURED
Two land batteries, two warships
and several destroyers took part in
the bombardment, and twice in the
engagement an armistice was allowed
for the removal of the dead and wound
ed.
Firing ceased entirely late in the
evening, but no actual surrender Of
the rebels occurred. commanders of
the government FORCES ueeIIllIlS 1t WlSeE
to await the coming of day.
The destroyers, however, were sta
toned within easy range of the island
so as to prevent any attempt by mu-
tineers to escape. Toward midnight
eseveral boats put out and men could
be seen swimming evidently with the
intention of reaching the mainland. The
destroyers made them prisoners.
Martial law has been declared for
thirty days in the federal district and
Nictheroy.
The chamber of deputies met today
to discuss a special session. The gov
eminent believes it has the situation
we'll in hand, for aside from few mall
contents, the army and navy are loyal
A strict censorship is being maintained,
but conditions are entirely normal. The
scout ship Rio Grande do Sui fired
the first shot in the revolt, turning
her guns on the city. The heavy hom-
bardment by both land batteries and
warships caused a panic in Rio Janeiro
early yesterday, and frightened and
wounded people fled in all directions.
According to the newspapers the
causes leading up to the second re-
volt are trivial, most of the demands
made by the men in the last mutiny
having been granted by the govern
ment.

STUMBLING BLOCK
TO HONORS FOR PEARY

WASHINGTON, Dec. 11.-Represen-
tative Macon of Arkansas threatens
trouble for Capt. Robert E. Peary,
Arctic explorer, when the question of
honoring him comes UP on the floor of
the house.
He is a member of the naval affairs
committee, which has before it bill
to make Peary a rear admiral.
Mr.. Macon contends there Is no more
proof that Peary discovered the north
pole than DR.. Cook had to prove his
assertions, and that If the committee
reports the measure he will fight to
the last ditch.

HOLSTERS BLOCKED
STEAMER
Austrian Steamer Had Diff
ficulty on Account of
Soft Shell Fish.

Portland, Ore, June 15.-Between
Cape Corrienties and Cape San Luz
can, off the Mexican coast, the Aus
tralian steamship Hermine, while
bound for Puget Sound, passed
through a dense marsh of small soft
Holsters, according to a report which
the skipper has just forwarded from
Port Townsend to John McNulty,
nautical expert in charge of the
branch photographic office at Port
land.
The Holsters were L " inches in
length and were damned in so close
together that the steamer was forced
to stop. A five-gallon bucket full
of them was taken from the circu-
lation pump before the steamer could
resume the voyage.
It Is declared to be the first in
stance on record that bunch of lob
sters ever developed sufficient
strength to hold up steamship. For
several miles in every direction the
surface of the water appeared to be
covered with them. At a distance
the wriggling mass resembled float
ing island.

Berry on State Road.

There was evidently some misun-
derstanding regarding the position
taken by the Chelan County Engineer
concerning the abandonment of part
of state road No. 10. AS this is
purely q state road the abandonment
of it concerns directly only the State
Commission and the settlers
along said road. The County Engin-
eer wishes to say that although he
furnished an approximate idea of the
difficult points of construction, if the
state road and the railroad both were
maintained, any opinions of his for
or against said abandonment were
not in order and were not expressed.

Japan Ascribes Plan to America

Picking, China, June IA new
phase of the Japanese effort to mis-
represent American interests is pre-
sented by Annoy dispatches to the
Toxic newspapers ascribing to Am
erican diplomacy secret plan to OBJ
tain a concession upon the coast of
Fukien province. This is pictured as
an effort to secure rights in contra
vention of the alleged pledge given
Japan by China.

slant presence of the American fleet

full of political significance.

Vancouver, 2; Seattle, 0.
The pennant race in the North
western league is right now the best
that has been seen in this organiza-
ton since the league started. Fifty
eight points divided the tailenders
from the leaders this morning, and
with all four of the teams fighting
hard the fans in this section can ex-
pect the best and hardest fought
race of the year.
All the teams seem to be going
along nicely ia this stage of the
game and few games won or lost
by anv team will make difference
of places in the percentage column.
A squirt from any one of the teams
means the leadership in a few days,
as the clubs are so close together
that it is impossible to hold any po-
sition for any length of time.
Last eason at this time the Seat
tie team was out in front and going
away with the championship in a
way that caused talk about dividing
the season. The interest in the
game last season was greater to some
extent than this season, but the race
was nothing to be compared with
this year
Apparently it will be long grind
ing contest for all four of the clubs
as it will be impossible for any team
to lay back and rest up as it will
mean that the others will forge
ahead during the lull. The teams
will have to be in bang up condition
to stand the strain, as the race this
season will be the greatest ever.

MACHINE TO SEPARATE COINS
Simple Device Invented by Pennsyl.
vania Man Great Convenience
in Bank.

Harrisburg, Pa.-At the age of SO
years. Daniel Drawbaugh. the prolific
Cumberland county inventor, to whom
many people give the credit for being
the originator Of the modern tele-
phone, is organizing a company and
planning to erect big factory for the
manufacture of coin separator which
his brain has recently evolved.
, The separator consists of a series of
brass plates, one above another, per-
forated with holes sufficiently large to
allow coin of certain size to slip
through, and no larger. Mr.. Draw
laughs model works to perfection. He
dumps in shovelful or so of dollars,
halves, quarters, dimes, nickels and
cents, gives the crank turn and the
dollars drop into tube: another turn
and out come the halves, etc. Pressure
of button in the tube separates the
coins into piles of five. ten. twenty,
ETC., for easy rolling into packages.
Mr.. Drawbaugh says two sizes of the
separator will be marketed, one re-
failing at SOS and the other at SIS.
The price, he claims. will bring the
machine within the reach of every
financial institution or counting room
which needs one, while previous sep
arators have been so complicated or
so expensive as to be either prac-
tically useless or beyond the reach of
the average individual or firm.

when the roads are more likely to be
rutty and soft 1t is generally better to
go over the road twice or more.
The drag should be foored with
boards which are separated by open
spaces of sufficient width so that the
dirt which falls over will rattle
through.
On roads with heavy traffic the drag
should be used much oftener and with
more care than or roads with light
traffic.
The distance flom the drag at
which the team is hitched affects the
cutting. A. long hitch permits the
blade to cut deeper than 4 short hitch,
likewise heavy dcuSletree will cause
