 Under these conditions 1t Is a diff ficult matter for the woodmen tc get their loads to town without hard work on the teams. One dealer yes terday made the work of his team somewhat lighter by hauling in q large load of snow and placed 1t on Second avenue near the power house It is the custom of the woodmen to stop there and be measured up be fore placing their wood in the biz pile. This "wise" teamster had no trouble in starting his load where others have had considerable diil culty. At that 1t requires some time to haul the snow-hence the 5O-5

 The collision is seated to have oc. cured during severe storm at sea Both schooners were endeavoring to seek shelter behind one of the isl ands of the Hawaiian group and be- came unmanageable owing to the gale that was blowing. The crews of both vessels were saved altho several close calls from drowning are reported. The Kitsap is owned by a Port I,lRkeley company and was loaded with lumber at the time she sank.

 In mentioning the loss of the yes. sel the captain states that after load ing a cargo of lumber at a Puget Sound port for Cape Town every. thing went we'll until December 18th. last. On that day huge tidal wave was encountered which swamp ed the vessel and 1t went down. The men were fortunate enough to se- cure two of the life boats. which floated from the deck of the yes gel as it submerged. In these many days were spent until . vessel bound for Australia was signalled. If any men were lost the captain did not mention it. This will not be known until he has rendered a report to his employers.

 The game last week was played under the western rules. Not be- ing familiar with some the rules the visitors were placed at a disad vantage. The playing tonight clearly demonstrated that the home team had their measure all the time, With another game to win it looks as tho the Seattle team would annex the title of champion of the world.
