 A. O. Collins, who has a ranch in the Roosevelt district, came into The Republican office yes terday with his arms filled with what at first appeared to be squash CT some other similarly large vegetable. But no, it was sweet potatoes, the largest of which weighed 1oIa pounds and is big enough to make meal for a dozen people. Another one was nearly as large.

 Speaking Of salvaging, Mir and Mrs Gang learned the cause of dreadful disaster along the Alaskan coast last year in which the lives of all on board were lost. A Canadian vessel went on the rocks but did not sink imme- diately. and with the prospect of fair weather there seemed little Likelihood of her sinking. American vessels which had been summoned by wire less stood by for some time and of fered to tow the disabled steamer in. But her captain refused assistance in order that the ship might be brought in by one of the other vessels of the company and her salvage saved About 10 o'clock that night a violent storm sprang up and the vessel went down. Some days later, when the body of the captain was discovered it was found that he had not diet sailors death by drowning There were three bullet holes in his body doubtless marks Of punishment in flicted by passengers themselve' about to die.
