INJURED WHALE T0WS SHIP
Five Bombs Are Necessary TO End
the Life of Mammal That Makes
a Hard Struggle.

Hoquiam, Wash-Bringing in u
large COW whale, which put up one Of
the toughest fights ever experienced
by whalers out of this port, the steam
ship Paterson arrived from a cruise
down the coast. After the big man.
NAL was harpooned she fought for five
hours, several times threatening dis
aster to the whaling vessel, which got
numerous hard bumps. 1t was finally
necessary to fire FIVE bombs before
the whale was killed. During the
early stages of the battle the whale,
with harpoon firmly imbedded in her
flesh, dashed away northward with
the whaling steamship in tow at a
rate Of 20 miles an hour.
While off the Columbia river. the
crew of the Paterson witnessed a
school of cod pursued by fur seals
and porpoises, almost filling the water
with a solid mass of fish Fully a
thousand PROPOSES were in evidence,
dashing about and often leaping ten
or twelve feet from the water. The
fur seal are on their way north to the
rookeries of the Alaska penincula.
The whale brought in by the Pater-
son is the tenth killed In thirty days.
One other whale was shot on the
cruise. The bomb killed the animal,
but the harpoon failed to enter the
flesh and the carcass sank. The
whalers Paterson and Moran, now OPP
Grating out of here, soon will be
Joined by the first of three new steam
whalers being built at Seattle.

One of the important tasks of the
astronomers was to try to obtain data
from which to determine the exact
position and exact diameter of the
moon. For that purpose they station
ed observers at five different places.
At each of the points chosen two
telescopes were erected on firm stone
foundations-one for direct ocular OBJ
servations, the other for projecting
the phenomenon on a screen, on which
could be followed the whole course OF
the sun and moon while in conjunc-
