23-TON YACHT MAKES
100000 Mile VOYAGE
LITTLE ENGLISH VESSEL HAS
MANY ADVENTURES IN TWO
YEAR CRUISE.

London, July 1.-THE little TWEEN
ty-three-ton yacht Mana has arrived
in an English port after a voyage Of
a hundred thousand miles. Belong
ing to Mr.. and Mrs. Scoresby Rout-
ledge, the vessel left England over
two years ago on a scientific mission
to Easter Island, in the South Paci-
fic.
The last stage of the little vessels
voyage was from San Francisco,
which she left five months ago. AL
together there were eleven persons
on board, including two men from
Pitcairn Island. Mr.. Routledge had
some interesting details of the voy-
age.
After leaving San Francisco" he
said, 1--WE came down the Mexican
coast. Two hundred miles from land
we came upon three islands marked
as uninhabited, and decided to land
to try and get some meat. But our
landing was delayed, as the mouth of
the cove was occupied by two whales,
who were feeding and who refused
to move until the following day.
On landing we found a rough shanty,
together with a derelict boat, and
alongside a rough cross, evidently
marking a grave. In rift in q
cliff we found a sort of cave strewn
with old bottles and odds and ends
of camp. Near by was a piece of
wood bearing the name Annie Lar
sen, which l learned from ship
wrecked sailor who was on the yacht
was the name of vessel engaged in
blockade running or contraband.
There is no doubt that the remote
island had been a dumping ground
for Mexican revolutionists.
"There were so many turtles that
we got tired of feeding on them. 1t
was curious to see these creatures be-
ing regarded by the birds as a kind
of floating island and to see gulls
preening themselves on the turtles
backs.
1.-THE Mana visited one small island
in the Gulf of Panama where ele-
phantiasis was rampant among the
people. The currents in this region
were very difficult. and there was one
sailing ship that had been drifting in
circles for thirteen months and had
been unable to get out. The Pana-
ma canal was closed to traffic, but the
American Government kindly allow
ed the Mana, as the vessel of a scien-
tific expedition, to go through.
"Some fifty miles from Jamaica
we saw what appeared at first to be
a burning ship and afterward looked
like smoke from a naval action. We
found it to be submarine volcano
blowing Off. The sea flow had been
broken, and we saw seas breaking in
places where the chart showed no
land. Under the circumstances no
investigation was possible"

IF YOU COULD

See your eye defects stick out like
bumps on log, then your eyes would
get the attention they deserve. As it
is, your eye defects are concealed or
hidden from your view and only a
specialist can locate them with instru-
ments that reveal the INNER condi-
ton of your eyes. The eyes, like good
deeds, cover a multitude of sins-or
defects; and are the cause of a multi
tude of illnesses that are never traced
to them. Over and over again have
we relieved headaches, dizziness, and
stomach trouble that would not yield
to drugs. How? Simply by relieving
eye defects that were sapping the sys-
TEN of nerve force to maintain good
vision. Was the patient aware that
the eyes were the CAUSE of this
trouble? No; not until we proved it
by giving him relief and freedom from
his ailment Not all headaches, dizzi
ness and stomach trouble comes from
eye defects, but goodly number do,
that go from year to year without re-
lief, which often times would yield to
eye treatment because the eyes are the
CAUSE of the weak and deranged
stomach. If in doubt about the true
condition of your eyes see DIR. Jackson

a team ahead and one behind him, and
the two drivers picked Mr.. Rossiter up
and carried him to the home of J. NJ.

broken collar bone and his head was
severly cut in number of places. Mr.

BREAK CONVICT CAMP FRIDAY

County Commissioner John ID. Long
was notified Wednesday by Engineer
Hazard, in charge of the convict
camp at White Bird where they have
been working this season on the North
and South highway, that camp would
be broken there Friday morning and
the men would start at once on their
trip to southern Idaho. Mr. Hazard
stated that the work ON the road to
Remington's ferry would be completed
today and that the funds having been
exhausted they would not be able to
remain longer. The Engineers made
a decidedly inaccurate estimate ON the
cost Of the construction of the road
from White Bird to the ferry, after
wards revising the first estimate a
time or two without arriving at a
correct conclusion. AS it is now being
left, there is really no connection with
the new road from White Bird and it
still requires a considerable sum of
money to complete it in shape for
heavy hauling, as it will be necessary
to put bridge across White Bird
creek

to make the following statement: Last
September a woman sold honey in
Grangeville and vicinity, shipped from
North Yakima, she told many of my
customers that / was not coming and
told some that l had got in trouble
for selling impure honey. l was delay
ed mainly by an unusually large and
late honeyflow, securing over 10000
pounds from about IS colonies of bees,
spring count, and extracting into No
vember. Since l put my first honey
on the market, q years ago, 1t has
been pure bee-honey, ripe and clean.

it will surely result in failure.
