Hunt for Treasure Ship.

London.-The latest news from To-

Spanish treasure" ship Florencia,
supposed to have foundered in the bay
after the wrecking of the Armada, is
in full swing, states that the pro-
moters of the enterprise have lately
been greatly encouraged by the ma
ture Of the objects brought up by the
divers. Several silver coins have
been found and pieces of swords and
scabbards. A log Of black oak, about
thirty feet in length. has also been
discovered, which, it is hoped, may
prove to be part Of the galleon. The
work is rendered very difficult be-
cause the divers have to penetrate a
thick stratum of shells which stick
in the suction pump nozzle and cause
frequent delays.

PHONE DIRECTORY IS
CAUSE OF PROFANITY

Have you tried to use the new
phone directory just issued by the Pa
cific Telephone company? If you
have not done so then get ready to
swear when you have to use 1t. If
that new directory does not make you
swear then you have no profanity
about you.
AS was done once before several
years ago the phone people have dis
tributed a Walla Walla directory
among their Pendleton subscribers. In
other words the directory comprises
all the towns OF this district. But in
stead of having them arranged alpha
betically the Walla Walla list comes
first in the book. Pendleton, Pasco,
Pomeroy and other burgs are located
in the back of the book where they
may be found only after long and
painstaking search.
THAT new phone directory is the
limit. 1 don't know what the tels-
phone officials mean by trying to
force US to use directories that were
plainly printed for use in Walla Wal
la and are not convenient here" said
a well known business man today.

not only to the Marys, but to all the
tenants.
This will not be Lady Mary's first
appearance in public for at the age
of two she opened a Roman Catholic
school at Rothesay. Lord Butte and
his wife are very devout Roman Cath
olics, and give very large sums to
charity.
On the death of his father Lord
Butte inherited s25,O00,000 and vast
estates in Scotland and England. He
is a scholarly but very quite young
man, and it has been said of him that
he is the only man who speaks six
languages in silence.
He is a much greater sportsman,
however, than his father was, and he
takes great interest in all outdoor
pursuits.
Lady Butte, who is dark, pretty and
vivacious, was a daughter of Sir H.
Bellingham, who was private cham
berlain to the late Pope. Her elder
sister Is nun.
The Butte wedding was the most
picturesque ever seen in the Higr-
lands. The young couple were car
ried over the waters by clansmen and
fisherfolk to the islands, and the
honeymoon was spent at sea.

POLICE OF BERLIN
HAVE NEURASTHENIA.

Berlin.-The Berlin police Is suf-

cilities are provided for giving 1000
members of the force a months rest
in each year medical experts hold
out no hope that "the nervous police
man" will disappear from the streets
of the capital.
These remarkable statements are
contained in an appeal published in
the newspapers in connection with the
establishment OF a police GONZALES
cent homes. The original appeal was
Issued several weeks ago and has al
ready produced results. The need for
resting the overwrought nerves of the
police is so universally appreciated
that no fewer than five offers of free
building sites for the convalescent
home have already been made.
One philanthropist thinks that Ber-
lin policemen can only have a thor
oughly successful "cure" II they are
removed far from the scene Of their
strenuous activities. He accordingly

which the force Is afflicted as "neu-

strain OF the nerves on street duty.

also results from accidents suffered in

ELEVATED SIDEWALK
ACROSS R. R. TRACK
SUGGESTED AS SOLUTION
10 PRESENT DIFFICULTY
l.. A. Edding Thinks Aura Street
Should Be Closed Providing Rail-
road Company Builds Overhead
Sidewalk for Pedestrians,

An overhead sidewalk across the
railroad tracks on Aura street may be
the solution of the street and railroad
problem in West Pendleton. The So
luton has been suggested by one of
the interested property owners and
will be brought to the attention of
the council when that body again
takes up the consideration Of the
question.
L. A. Edding Of $40 Aura street is
the man who has suggested the over
head walk as the only way around
the difficulty.
They are sure to close this street
Tor US in spite of all we can do" de-
.elared Mr.. Edding in discussing the
proposition. "As far as that goes it
might just as well be closed now, con-
sidering the frequency with which
one is compelled to wait for one, two
or even three trains to get out of the
way"
He then proceeded to give concrete
instances of innumerable provoking
delays which would have been avoid
ed if there had been an overhead
walk. He also called attention to the
number of school children crossing
the tracks daily.
This property owner is therefore of
the opinion that the railroad COM
pany should be given the streets it
desires on condition that it build an
overhead walk for footmen. He be-
lieves that this should be considered
a necessity from a safety standpoint
even if the street should be left as
near open as at present.
The question of closing the streets
has not been up for consideration by
the council for several weeks, but II
will probably be brought up for fina
settlement soon after the return o.
Mayor Murphy from California.

other parts of the Yilgarn gold
field are also now receiving attention

The government is now surveying
a townsite at Bullfinch and consider
ing the advisability of carrying a pipe
from the Goldfields water main to
the new field. The policy of the de-
partment of mines to provide a water
supply supply by sinking wells be-
tween Southern Cross and Sandstone
has enabled prospecting to be carried
out over an enormous area, the re-
suit of which policy will be a great
stimulus to prospecting.

Washington.-An enterprise that
bears all the earmarks of a venture
by the rubber trust is the theme of a
report made by United States Consul
James T. Du Bois, at Singapore.
"a big rubber company" he says,
organized by American capital and
now partially owned by English cap
italsts, has secured tapping rights
over all of the government forest re-

"The territory includes about 81
900, 900 acres, and the company has
obtained the right to tap all jelatong
trees on this wide area for a period
of 10 years, with a renewal privilege
for seven years more. This company
holds also large rights in South Bor-

the company is erecting a 100000

factory will handle all the jelatong re-

University Of Washington, Seattle.
The University of Washington has
a student who has the distinction of
being from one of the noble houses of
Russia. This is Baron Cr. Osten
Lachen, who has created something
like a sensation here.
When he first appeared on the
Washington campus he was known
as a dishwasher in one of the frat"
houses. At first Osten Laschen gain
ed little notice in the chemistry de-
partment, in which he is working, but
the professors, in conversing with him
found that he had travelled much, and
that by his perfect diction and un-
usual accent he must have obtained
an education unusual to a man of the
position which he was then holding
After queries by many professors
it was found that he had attended the
University of Zurich, Switzerland, as
well as the University of Berlin. He
is said to have a wide knowledge of
botany and zoology.
DR.. Byers of the chemistry depart
ment of this institution, said today
that Lachen came to Washington
from Japan "broke," and that Lach-
en- happened into Bagely Hall at the
university just at the time when some
manual work was NEEDED. He was put
to do the work at 25 cents an hour
accepting the work reluctantly.
Osten Lachen has been given a tu.
torship in German and will take VI
the work here. 1t is his intention t.
follow a strictly scientific course.

"Bad Man" Runs Amuck.

Tom Alden, an alleged bad man"
is now lodged in the city Jail but may
be transferred to the county Jail on
a charge of aggravated assault and
battery. 1t seems that Alden, who is
n teamster for Ben Burroughs, secur-
ed some near beer yesterday, donned
his fighting clothes and started up
Main street. Two boys he met failed
to give him matches when called upon
to do so and were the first to arouse
his displeasure. They were both
slapped A travelling man was next
encountered and roundly abused. The
fighting teamster then met a China
man on the corner of Main and Alta
streets and proceeded to beat him up.
BY this time a crowd had gathered
and the fighter was in danger of be-
ing roughly used when Chief of Po-
lice Gurdane arrived on the scene and
took him to Jail. Judge Fitz Gerald
this morning announced that the case
would probably be passed on to the
circuit court
