SEATTLE, Aug. S.-The steamship Admiral Schley, having aboard three hundred and twenty-six passengers of the H. F. Alexander, docked here at three-thirty o'clock this morning. Two of the women passengers are suffering from sprained wrists, two men from sprained knees, the injur- ies received in the course of the mishap to the Alexander. The ship, is was learned, had been going slow ly through dense fog when she struck the rock. During the course of the, day the fog lifted, disclosing a smooth sea, but a heavy swell de- layed the transfer of the passeng- CTS until four o'clock yesterday after noon, when the ships were, off Clal- lam. The transfer was effected with the aid of the tug Snohomish, which then proceeded to escort the Alexan- der, which is slowly making toward Seattle.

SPECIALISTS TELLS HOW EYES
ARE CURED WITHOUTGLASSES|
Declares Glasses Not Only
Do Not Cure Eye Trouble,
but on Other Hand Make
Worse
BY DIR. WILLIAM HI. BATES
Eye Specialist, Lecturer and Author
of Perfect Sight Without
GIasSas'l

Glasses'o
NEW YORK-If you wear glasses,
discard them.
You can be cured Of near-sighted.
ness, far.sightedness and astigma'
tism If you learn to rest your eyes.
It is not quite as easy as 1t sounds.
Yet school children have done it
as we'll as adults. Among my assist
ants at a hospital clinic are Is girls
between 10 and IA years old. They
used to wear glasses. But they help
, ed cure themselves and are now
curing others.
All eye trouble is caused by strain.
If the FORMAL eye strains to read at
a near point, it becomes far-sighted.
If the eye strains to read at dis
lance, it becomes near.sighted-al-
ways.
But the condition is only Temporal
ry. Remove the strain and the eyes
become normal.
The wearing of glasses cannot re.
move the strain. If it did, the eye
would become cured and glasses
would no longer be necessary. AS a
matter of fact, once a person starts
wearing glasses, the strength of the
lenses may have to be increased,
steadily.
Yet when people break their
glasses and go without them for a
week or two, they frequently OBJ.
serve that their sight has improved.
The human eye resents glasses.
Every occulist knows that patients
have to "get used" to them-some
times they never succeed in doing so.
Glasses have been prescribed on
the old theory that the eye changes
it's focus for vision at different dis.
tances by altering the curvature Of
the lenses Of the eye. When the Gil.
larry muscles, supposed to control the
lens, get into a continuous state of
contraction or expansion, the eye be-
comes permanently out Of focus and
correction Is necessary.
This correction is supposed to
come with the wearing of the glasses.
But cure? Never.
The problem puzzled me. I stud
died the eyes of the lower animals
and particularly fish. .
I soon discovered that the errors
in refraction are due not to per-
manent reformation of the eyeball,
but to q functional and therefore
durable arrangement in the action.
of the extrinsic muscles-brought
on by strain.
Remove the strain and the eye be-
comes normal.
Primarily the strain to see is the
strain Of the mind. To secure relax
alton requires considerable time and
much ingenuity, The same method
cannot be used with everyone. But
the best way to bring about this
rest is:
First-Close the eyes.
Second-Cover with. the palms Of
the hands, shutting off all light.
Third-Think Of perfect mental

STATE TO EPA|D
BACK TAXES ON DAM

A check in payment Of the taxes
on the Gregg Shoals hydro-electric
dam, on the Savannah river, abut-
ting Gilbert county, is ready to be
paid to the state Of Georgia after
nine years of litigation which went
to the United States supreme court,
it was announced Wednesday by
Comptroller.General Wright.
In 1918 the dam was owned by
the Carolina Power company. 1t
returned a part of the dam for taxes
in Georgia. Comptroller Wright
held that the eastern bank Of the
river was the state line; therefore,
the whole dam was taxable in Geor-
gia. He assessed the dam at $780,
600. The company resorted to arbi.
tration, and the arbitrators fixed the
value Of 'the portion in Georgia
at $4,000, without undertaking to
decide the state line question.
Georgia and South Carolina went
to the supreme court with a test
case to decide the exact location OF
the boundary line. Georgia contend
ed for the whole river to the Caro-
lima bank. Carolina commended for
the eastern half Of the stream, out
to the center Of the channel. A
few months ago the supreme court
decided that the center of the stream
was the line, except where islands
occur in the river, and at these
places the center Of the stream east
of the islands is the boundary. Rec
ords from London going back to the
chartering Of Oglethorpe's colony by
the king of England were brought
into the case.
Taking Georgia's taxable portion
Of the dam to the center of the
stream gives Georgia nine-tenths of
the dam, according to engineers who
surveyed the dam after the supreme
court decision. This is due to the
peculiar bend Of the river where the
dam is situated. Thus Georgia will
collect taxes on the basis Of $35, 010
which is nine-tenths Of the dam on
the arbitrated value.
This collection will be made for
the years 1918 and 1914, with in,
terest, and the state of Georgia will
be relieved Of the cost of the litiga.

In 1915 the Gregg Shoals dam was
bought by. the Georgia Railway &
Power company and it has since
paid taxes on the dam on a valua.
