About year ago, the Skinner syndicate was organized composed of Seattle business men and engaged the British Columbia Wreck ing company to do the work. with the result that a few days ago. the Sesos- tris was raised and will be taken to the Panama drydock for repairs. It is estimated that after repairs have been made the recovered steamer will be worth nearly a million dollars. She has net tonnage of 5,025.

BRITISH OFFICERS
 WIFE WAS CENSURED
Investigating Board ExOnerates The Lieutenant of Any Blame

An army scandal involving the eXeT- else Of influence over high officers by a prominent society woman is describ- ed in Q report Of recent date published in the London Times. The report was from the court Of inquiry. and Mrs Cornwallis-West and mother of the Princess of Pless and of the Duchess Of Westminster. was officially and se- verely censured.
 It appears that Lieutenant Patrick Barrett, Of the Welsh FusiIIiers. was a sergeant when he was recommended for commission late in 1915 and his claims supported by Colonel and Mrs. CornwaIlis-West and several promin- ent civilians.
 Probably before this time and cer- tainly later" says the report, Mrs. Cornwallis-West began to take more than an ordinary interest in MT. Bar rett, 10 which he consistently failed to respond. Eventually he wrote her in February last a letter of remonstrance which she placed in the hands Of his commanding officer"
 The court of inquiry report says re garding Mrs. Cornwallis-West
 We feel obliged to record our opin. ion that this lady conduct, as reveal ed in this case. has been highly dis creditable both in her behavior toward Second Lieutenant Barrett before his letter to her, in her vindictiye attempts to injure him afterward and in her un- truthful evidence she gave before us
 The report exonerated Lieutenant Barrett

BELIEVE GERMANS MAKE RUBBER
 FROM PITCH.

STOCKHOLM, Jan. 20.-Swedish scientists are under the belief that the Germans have at last succeeded in making a synthetic rubber-or at least an acceptable substitute-from pitch, of which they imporr great quantities from Sweden. Similar experiments have been conducted by various Swed- ish scientists, but thus far without sue cess. Many Of them are still of the op- inion that the idea is feasible and are not disposed to doubt that the Germans have succeeded, although they decline to think that the discovery cannot yet be of practical significance.

HEAVY, THE PRIVATE
 AND THE PRICE HE
 WAS MADE TO PAY

This is the story of Heany the pri- vate, and the price he paid for his patriotism. It is story for the guard smen's folks back home who think they've suffered hardships on account of his border duty
 Americans Mastered at Carrizal" was the headline that sought Heaney out on his rocky, backwoods farm in the mountains of McGoffin county, Ky,
 It had been a lifetime struggle to wiring a living from the ungrateful soil of the stony slopes where he had toiled since childhood. Bit by bit he had bought the half barred farm, mar ried and raised five children.
 Tt plumb broke him up" when his wife died, but the oldest gal'' helped with the little brood and they managed to get the sprnig crops in.
 He had his hands more than full at home, but his grandfather fought in the revolution and his father was in the Union army; and when the presi- dents call for men came, Heany went. The captain of the Second Kentucky told him to be back by dark. Heany rode around by the neighbors who each agreed to take one of the chil- i dren until he came back. If he didn't come back they promised to adopt them One by one Heany tok the lit i tie ones to the neighbors and kissed 1 them goodbye. Then he went away
 On the border Heany drilled in the hot sun, following his monotonous du- ties grimly. His comrades said that ] he was queer" They didn't know.
 Perhaps Colonel GL.Iion :s cne only man on the border who knows the whole story. Heany tofd him wher word came that his oldest gal" had run away. Heany wanted to go home And the colonel would like to sent him. but the government has no time for the heartaches of an atom 1T tits war machine.
