WHITMAN COUNTY LOSS
FROM STORM is HEAVY

Further reports from the storm
swept sections of Whitman county,
just across the state line in Washing
ton, show that the damage done by
the storm of Tuesday night was larg-
er than at first reported. The total
for Whitman county is variously es-
timated at from $500,000 to $1,000
900 and covers every imaginable loss
from chickens to barns, livestock,
wheat fields, flooded easements, rail-
roads and wagon roads washed out
and windows smashed. Pullman
seems to have been worse hurt than
any other section and the storm
center there was the state college,
which suffered loss estimated at
from $4,000 to 100000 with no in
surance. A feature of the loss of
the state college was the destruction
of the poultry plant in which teams"
of hens of various breeds from all
sections of the northwestern states
were being kept in trap-nestcd egg
laying contest covering a year, which
ends November l, next. Many of
these prize egg layers were killed,
ard others escaped. Reports are that
three barrels of dead pullets have

RAISES FINE GRASSES ON
TRACT NEAR MOSCOW

Frank Peterson, who owns TO-
acre tract one mile north of Moscow,
brought to this office some of the
finest specimens Of timothy, alfalfa
and bronze grass seen in Moscow in
long time. The alfalfa is five feet
tall, has rich foliage and is just in
blossom. He has four acres of this
and last year he got IL IL tons of
hay off Of the four acres and this
year he says the yield will be at
least IA tons. The timothy, of which
he has an acre or more, is also fine.
He has but a small patch of the
bronze grass, which he is trying
out to see if it will do we'll here" 1t
has certainly done we'll. Mr.. Peter
son came here for his health IA
years ago and has completely re-
covered after suffering for years
with stomach troubles. He says
when he bought this tract it would
not raise anything, the ground being
hard and unfertile. By continued
cultivation he has built it up until it
is now very productive. He has it
well improved and it is becoming a
valuable piece of property.

Hawaiian and Maori Races Are
Shown to Be Identical.
New Zealand Natives Are Descend
ants Of People From Pacific Isles,
investigation Proves.

HOnOlulu.-The Macris of New Zea-
land and the Hawaiians are from the
same stock, it has just been announced
by officials of the Church of Latter
Day Saints here. They have made
public evidence tending to prove that,
In 500 A. D., 80 canoes left the Ha-
waiian islands filed with men. women
and children, and that, five centuries
later, the remnants Of this migration
reached New Zealand in 40 canoes.
Wiremu, OF William. Duncan, a
Maori dairy farmer of Dannevirke,
New Zealand, who traces his ancestry
back ITO generations, or to about 500
years before Christ. as Polynesian gen
erations run, came here recently with
10 of his countrymen and country
women in a search for the link which
would bind the Maori and Hawaiian
races.
According to the statement Of
James N. Lambert presiding elder Of
the New Zealand mission of the Nor
mon church, and President E. Wesley
Smith of the Honolulu branch of the
i"i'h, uhuSi WHOSe auspices lHe hdOTlS
came to Honolulu, the two races were
found to merge at the sixty-ffth gen.
GRAFTON of Duncan's family tree
When Duncan. who learned his
genealogy, as Maoris and Hawaiians
do, from the lips of his father, COM
pared his family tree with that CT
Emma K. Lewis, woman born on the
island Of Hawaii, he found that they
had an identical forefather in the per-
son of one Hema, sixty-fifth of his line
In Duncan's genealogy.
From Hema back through the
ages it was discovered that the two
family trees ran as one. name after
name being the same, except for slight
differences in spelling and pronuncia-
ton, which are generally recognized.
Those who have been Investigating
the origin of the two races assert
that the discoveries just made were
taken in association with the Hawaiian
tradition that Hema went from Hawaii
to Tahiti, and the Maori tradition that
Hema's descendants went to New Zea-
land from Tahiti, lead to the inev-
table conclusion that the Maoris and |
the Hawaiians are of the same stock. |

Primitive Summons.

New York university has come into
possession of an original photograph
of the first janitor of that institution
equipped with the gong and stick with
which he called the students to classes.
When the university was founded, jan
nary 8, 1880, and students met in the
original building back of the city hall,
there was, of course, no electric bell
ringing system. The responsibility Of
attendance at recitation was shunted
on the janitor.
Promptly on the hour he would
proceed through the corridors armed
with a huge metal gong In one hand
and the gong stick In the other. Paus
ing outside the classrOOms he would
beat his tattoo until the professor
ceased his lecture and the students
moved on to the next room on the pro-
gram.

DEFENDERS CHIEF
VETERAN yACHTSMAN
MAN WHO GUIDES CUP DE-
FENDER TODAY HAS HAD
MUCH EXPERIENCE

NEW YORK.-Charles Francis
Adams End, the man at the whee
who will try to steer the Resolute tx
victory in her first race in defense Of
the Americas Cup off Sandy Hool
today, is characterized by experts a.
the premier American yachtsman.
He has owned more than score Of
yachts and has sailed nearly 10(
small and large and some of these
have been the best boats of theil
class in American and the world.
Mr.. Adams is treasurer of Harvard
University and member of the cor
poration, director in many comp
anies and in personal charge of trust
estates amounting to many millions
Years ago he became known to yacht
ing associates under the nickname of
deacon" and some of them still call
him by that name.
Born at Quincy, Mass, he came of
a long line of sea-faring men and in
herited a love for the sea. He is
credited with calm judgment and a
high type of craftsmanship. His
father used to take him sailing in
Boston harbor when he was child
and by the time he was IL years old
he was winning races with his small
boats. In those days he learned a lot
about the tricky side of races for
rules were lax.
In later years Mr.. Adams built and
sailed to victory many notable
yachts most of which bore names
composed of seven letters with a
double o, such as the Papoose, Ba-
boon, Gossoon, Harpoon and Rooster.
He was at the wheel of the famous
Pilgrim when she sailed race
against the Vigilant and Jubilee for
the honor of defending the Americas
Cup in 1898. He sent his brother
George, mate of the Pilgrim to the
leeward rail to watch the jib sheets
as the yacht drove along in smoky
Southwestern She heeled so hard that
George soon stood in water up to his
knees.
"Hey, there, Deacon" he yelled,
ats getting deep out here"
81 don't care if it comes up to your
neck, you stay there till I tell you to
come out" replied Captain Charles.
But the Pilgrim was defeated.
There may be happy omen in the
fact that Charles F. Adams years
ago blocked the aspirations of one
little Scotch cutter, the Minerva,
which came to America and defeated
number of American boats in 1890.
Her victories were regarded as ON
nous and suggested to yachtsmen
the possibility that larger boat of
her type would be sent to carry away
the Americas Cup. The Minerva was
sailed by Charlie Barr, the famous
skipper, who defended the cup as
skipper of the Columbia in 1901 and
the Reliance in 1908. But Captain
Adams with his little Gossoon stop

"Sea Cow" Now Extinct.

The last arctic "sea cow was seen
in 1S54-about Il century after the
first discovery of the species by white
men. When full grown the creature
weighed as much as 5000 pounds.
These animals frequented shadows
at the mouths of rivers in herds, and
while feeding they drove before them
their young to protect the latter from
danger. SO tame were they that one
could stroke their backs without OBJ
lection on their part.
Unfortunately their flesh was good
to eat, resembling beef. Whalers got
In the way of depending on them for
stores of fresh meat and so in the
natural course of events they were
wiped out.

according TO Harold Il. Hagan. state
crops and pests inspector, who has
been gathering data ON the subject.
In Colorado u will be from 40 10 so
per cent normal. The general short
age, llagnn thinks, is due to a Thanks
giving frost last year ia the inter
mountain country and a late spring
here, and 10 an Eastertide frost in
the East. Apples should be- cheap in
Utah this fall and winter. reports
submitted to the state crops pests

be the heaviest in years. This is due
to spraying, which has been more
generally pracliccd this spring aud
