BLYTHE DUCKS DO
FINE FROG BUSINESS

RIVERSIDE, Aug. SC. Henry Fer
guson of Blythe has a story of the do
ings of the bull frogs during the recent
floods at Blythe.
"Such a crop of immense bull frogs
came TO life during the flood that the
lives of the ducks were seriously men

appearing" Ferguson mentions.
"Finally one duck larger and wiser
than the rest, permitted himself to be
swallowed all but his feet by bullfrog
whereupon he started padding for
shore while the bullfrog's eyes popped
out in amazement.
Thereafter he made it regular
business of catching large ambitious
bull frogs the same way.
"Frogs caught in this manner sold
for $50 dozen. Now everyone
around the. district is training ducks
to catch frogs by getting half swal
lowed. I'm thinking of giving VI
ranehing and going into the business

PASSENGERS SAVED
FROM WRECK

SEATTLE, WASH, Aug. S.-Crip-
pied by a flooded section of her hold
and hampered by heavy swell and
fog the Admiral Liner II. F. AleXand-
er, was limping slowly toward Seattle
today. The Alexander crashed upon
Cake Rock, 90 miles south of Cape
Flattery at 1885 a. m. yesterday cav
ing in her bow. Over three hundred
passengers. bound for Seattle from
San Francisco were transferred at
sea to the Admiral Schley early today
off CAlllam bay. They arrived in Seat
tie a few hours later. The transfer
was effected in safety while the two
vessels lay side by side, rolling in a
heavy ground swell.
The vessel, recently assigned to the
San Francisco-Seattle run, is the fast
est vessel on the coast as well as the
most luxurious.
Cake rock, where the Alexander
struck a projecting reef, is one of the
most treacherous points on the coast.
Obscured almost constantly by fog, 1t
has earned a wholesome dread among
seafarers. Four ships have been wreck
ed there.

Howey Has Last Laugh
A crowd of auto enthusiasts gathered
around the checking station shortly
after 10 clock, and most of them stay
ed until the last ear was sent away.
There was much good natured joshing
among the dealers regarding The super
iority of their particular make of ear
and the poor points of their eompeti-
tors. This was true especially in the
case of L. B. Howey, agent for the
Oldsmobile, when the closing time for
the ears to arrive was rapidly approach
ing, with no trace of the Oldsmobile.
Howey had plenty of faith, and was
not bit disconnected by the remarks
Of the crowd, and had his laugh when
The Oldsmobile entry checked in with
a consumption of 215 gallons the low

iaved it considerably, and driver

He had a good alibi however, claiming
