Steamer Spokane Wrecked

The Spokane. the fine Alaska ex-
cursion steamer was wrecked in
Seymour Narrows last Friday morn
ing, while on her first trip OF the
season to Alaska with 100 passengers
aboard.
Two lives were lost. All the
others were rescued without injury.
Mrs. Gardner F. Williams, of Wash
ington D. c., was hurled back into
a cabin by the rushing waters and
drowned, while her frantic husband
and two daughters stood by helpless
to save her. Mrs. j. E. Straus, OF
Philadelphia. died from the shock
Immediately after being rescued.
The cause of the wreck was that
the steamer could not stem the tide
while going through the Seymour
Narrows, Vancouver Island. The
Spokane is total loss.

Earthquake Shocks
San Francisco

Two earthquake shocks-the
heaviest since the big shake of April.
1906. and separated only by few
seconds Jared the central portion
of California and Western Nevada
last Saturday.
TIE first sharp shock experienced
at approximately 2:01 o'clock P. N
was followed within few seconds
by one of similar intensity, each
lasting about five seconds.
Only trivial damage has been re-
ported from any, section but in San
Francisco and other cities in the
affected area panic seized upon
crowds in stores and restaurants and
there was pell nell rush from the
large buildings. One peculiar
feature of the earthquake was that
it did not appear to follow the old
fault" in the earth's crust which
has been the playground of tcmblors
in the past, but extended from sea-
eastward to the Seirras, includ-
ing hitherto exempt mountain areas.

No Marine Station
For OrCaSalsland

The lease of the Cunningham
tract at Olga to Pullman College ex-
pired last week. There is little
prospect that it will be renewed.
The irridescent dream of the sage
brushers of a marine station on
Orcas Island, with permanent build
ings and an annual gathering of
bug hunters, and submarine explor-
ers is thus dispelled. Gov. Hay re-
fused to stand for two marine sta
tions where one may supply all need
ed facilities for study. Perhaps all
the educational institutions of the
state may become reconciled, SO that
they may dwell together at Friday
Harbor in peace and harmony among
their bugs, and clans and crawling
things.

A Cdustic Letter
To Joshua Green

l. Il
The Postmaster at small Office
on one of the islands received a re-
quest from the Inland Navigation
Go. a short time ago to return the
pass given him by that company.
He returned the pass with the
following letter:
Joshua Green, President,
Dear Sir:
Il have your circular letter quot
ing the Public Service law to the
effect that you are not permitted. to
to issue passes to anyone except en-
ployes agents etc. l had the inn
preston that | was an agent or em
ployee of your company having car
ried the mail for you between the
wharf and post Office for the past
four years without any other re-
muneration than the sum total of
ten trips on your boats. The ac-
count stands about as follows:
To carrying the mail years at
SIS per month $275.
BY transportation received $11.
Being soulless corporation I
do not expect you to recognize any
obligation not enjoi.ed by the
courts. But YOU might perhaps
be human enough to feel some APP
preciation for my services though
you pretend you are forbidden to
give any expression to 1T. Ireturn !
the pass, and would ask that as a
mere matter of justice and also in
complete compliance with the law
that you send me another pass for
myself and family"
1t is needless to remark that the
"soulless" corporation did not re-
spond to the modest request of the
postmaster.

Come, loosen Up!

What is the matter with Friday
Harbor? We are satisfied it is not
the drouth, the absence of saloons,
or the scarcity of drunkards. But
it does not seem that we are going
ahead as rapidly as we should with
the advantages and resources at
hand. Perhaps it is on account OF
the prevailing inertia Of business
generally, the tightness of the
"tightwads. or the high cost OF liv-
ing.
S Can anyone tell?
For the best explanation OF the
situation we will give round trip
ticket to the Golden Potlatch.
Come. Loosen up.
But be brief evermore be brief.
Next week is the limit.

The 4th Of July
Celebration

The Fourth Of July celebration at
Friday Harbor is entitled to go upon
her records as the most successful
and enjoyable affair of the kind ever
held here. 1t was a quiet. safe and
sane celebration. Firecrackers and
other noisy and dangerous things
were prohibited within the limits Of
the town. There were no disorderly
or boisterous persons upon the
streets just a big family picnic
with such features in the way of en-
tsrtainment as are reasonable and
desirable. The stores were nicely
decorated, the sreets clean and invit-
ing. the weather perfect and the
crowd good natured and enthusias-
tic. The big ballgame in the after
noon was the finest exhibition of
amateur baseball seen anywhere on
that day and a more enthusiastic
lot of fans were never seen.
| West Sound sent big delegation
to the celebration to ''root" for their
nine in the ball game. Many came
from Lopez and other island points.

A New Mail
Schedule Proposed

The mail and transportation busi.
ness of the islands is up in the air.
The new contract entered into by
the Inland Navigation Co. took
effect July but little change has
been made in the service. Roche
Harbor and Thatcher have been cut
out on one of the daily trips, so that
the Islander now makes better time
on her run from Anacortes. The
Inland Navigation Co. has submitted
to the Department the following
proposed new schedule for the Is
land Mail route.

White Wings

Did you see white Wings" the
street cleaning department, get a
move on Monday evening? He was
the liveliest thing in sight. hopping
up and down the street like q boy
playing tag. He had stunt to get
the streets clean for the Fourth.
He did it too and the streets looked
better than they ever have before.

The Bali Games

The preliminary game of five inn
ings was between the Richardson
nine and the White Sox. How Ole
Richardson saved the day is an in
teresting story. Ole was the catcher
and his enthusiasm and earnestness
infused such fire and vigor into the
pitcher that he became very whirl-
wind in delivery, sending in a mael-
stom Of curves, drops, spits, shoots
ETC., with such speed as to bewilder
the Sox. Ole and his aggregation
were SO swelled up, they thought
seriously of taking a fall out of the
Tigers. It was good game good
average playing on both sides. The
score was 8 to 0 in favor Of Richard
son.

given to a servant by his master. The
scenic qualities are very high and the
picture is interesting.
8. The Abbey Of Tavia, Italy"
Urban. An interesting glimpse Of
monastic life. The monks at this IA
nous Abbey pursue the even TEXTURE
of their way just as their predecessors
did when the monastic order played
a more prominent part in mems af-
fairs.
4. The Burglars Fee American
Pathe. A comedy drama that has
many numerous as well as serious sit
uations. II pictures an episode in the
life of a doctor and his young wife.
5. THE Widows Choice" Lubin.
Harold and Jack Manning were rivals
for the hand of Mrs. Dorothy Love-
land, a handsome widow. John Man
ming, their father, was an elderly
widower who hadn't smiled on a wo-
man for many years. One day Jack
received a letter from his firm tell
ing him to report at the office i'm
mediately, prepared for a business
trip which would take him from home
for at least a month. When Harold
heard of these orders, he was natur-
ally elated because. Jacks absence
would give him a good opportunity to
make the final plea for the Widows
hand. This is as pretty a love COM
edy as has eve been produced.

the Russian symphony Orchestra.
That It has won its front rank posi-
ton through sheer merit is now es-
tablished to the satisfaction of the
most exacting.
Just half of this orchestra was on
the coast with the Ben Gnet COM
pany in "A Midsummer Nights
Dream" and those who had the good
fortune to hear them her will realize
what a great treat is in store.
This organization brings with 1t

Queen Helen of italy and later the
| Dowager Russian Empress, upon
hearing Nine Dinnetrieff sing, snatch

and presented it to the youthful art
list.
Frank Ormsby has gained a posi-
ton on his own merit as an artist and
has one of the most delightful tenor
voices ever heard.
Madam Hulse is blessed with a true
contralto voice of that delightful qua
ity too seldom encountered. 1t is eff
