Seattle ferryboat Triton Sinks
While Crossing Lake Washington

Seattle - The Lake Washington
steamer Triton, owned by the Ander-
son Steamboat company and engaged
in ferry service, struck snag while
approaching Byers' Landing on the
east shore of Lake Washington ant
sank just as she was DRIVEN on the
beach. All the passengers and crew
landed safely.
The vessel ran mile after striking
the snag before the crew knew that
she was leaking. When the vessel
was short distance from the shore
the water began pouring into the en-
gineroom, but Captain Hiram Riddle
was able to drive her on to the beach
alongside the wharf at Byers' Landing
before the water stopped the engines.
There were only 25 passengers aboard
and all stepped safely off the upper
deck onto the wharf.
Ten minutes after the vessel had
been abandoned she turned over and
now is lying submerged alongside the
pier.

Taken from Dutch Steamer

Washington, D. C.-Official State
department advices Tuesday report
seizure of the Dutch steamer Prins
Hendrix by German warships, but did
not say on what charge Isador Polak,
the naturalized American, removed
from the vessel, was being held. The
department is Investigating further.
Much significance is attached by off
cials to Germany's seizure of mail
aboard the steamer. Some time age
Germany claimed the right to censor
letter mail on the basis that The
Hague convention, declaring the Gin
volatility" of such mail had been
rendered imperative by failure of sew
eral of the belligerent nations to rati-
fly it, but more recently the practice
apparently had been discontinued.

Yes, There's a Lot of It!

The New York "Times" published
the other day an account of an inter-
view with his Excellency John Bon
zano, Titular Archbishop of Mitilene
and Apostolic Delegate to the United
States. The interviewer finally asked
the apostolic delegate to tell some
thing of his opinion of modern Ameri-
can literature as he had observed it
during his stay of four years in this
country. The learned father looked
carefully down Madison Avenue for a
moment and then gave his verdict:
"Of modern American literature,

1t is plentiful"

Wheat in Shakv Market

Walla Walla-In the past few days
farmers have sold about 100, 900 BUSH
els of wheat at about $1.20 for club
and $1.28 for Turkey red. The actions
of the grain market have alarmed
some of the growers, who sold at 10
cents less than they could have OBJ
tanned a few days ago.
Alex Wray and j. E. Bergman sold
20, 900 bushels of choice bluestem at
top prices, and G. Schwenk sold 1000
bushels. There were numerous small
lots sold.
Winter bluestem, sown in the light
land section IL miles north of Touchet,
yielded 25 bushels to the acre, while
Turkey red, sown under the same con-
ditions, yielded but 20, according to
reports made to County Agriculturist
o. V. Patton, who has been expert
