PRoSsER WINS

Fifteen golfers from the county
seat came to Kennewick Sunday
and won a match by a score of
1920. Used to far more strict
rules of play than have been used
locally the Prosser men found the
going easier here. A return match
was doped out for Sunday, but on
account of it's being Easter the
date was moved a week ahead.
Shortly after it is likely that the
local players will be hosts to a
team from Walla Walla. The local
course being at its best at this
season, all matches that are pos
sible are being arranged for early
in the season.

An unusual party that is said
to be different" is being planned
by the Bachelors club for Friday
evening of this week. The club is
giving a "hobo" dance to which
everyone will come attired in tat

knights of the road who contin-
ually ask for dimes and never get
enough coffee. The Moose hall has
been secured for the occasion and
a corps of interior decorators are
busy arranging the atmosphere" "
Novel refreshments, conforming
with the motif of the costumes and
hall, will be served.

Sapelo Island and the group of
romance and history. Successfully.
they have been occupied by explor-
ers. missionaries, pirates, and French
noblemen. They were first settled
by the Spanish pioneers who crossed
the Atlantic soon after Columbus
second voyage to the land Of his dis
covery. Shortly afterwards came
the missionaries. only to be driven
away or killed by Indians. Later
the English of South Carolina and
French settlers fought for the
islands. which meanwhile were the
prey of desperados of the sea. Near
the end of the eighteenth century
Sapelo Island became the property
of a group of French noblemen and
was a haven for refugees Of the
French revolution. During the rev.
olution and the war of 1912 the
islands were the victims OF frequent
sea raids and by the end of the lat
ter conflict were almost deserted.
! Then 1t was found that the sail was
admirably suited to the growing Of
cotton and farming held sway until
after the Civil War.
Restores Setting
More recently new development
began. Seventeen years ago Coffin
bought Sapelo Island in it's entirety
and proceeded at once to restore the
old world setting which it knew
many years before.
Many old ruins left by the Span
! iards still stand upon the island and
these Coffin has been careful to
preserve. Meanwhile. he has stocked
the fields and woodlands of his
island retreat with game of many
/ kinds, assuring President Coolidge
an opportunity to try his skill with
the shot gun once more. Fish are
plentiful in the waters nearby, and
Mr.. Coolidge will also have the op-
portunity for indulging in another of
his fayorite recreations.

TRAINS COLLIDE

Newport, r. I, Dec. &c "a

from Boston to this city collided
head on with another train standing
IN front of the Melville station today.
Both locomotives were damaged and
that OF the inbound train was de-
rallied. None Of the passengers or

The Newport train. which was
travelling at slow speed. failed to take
switch. Railroad officials said that
the accident apparently was caused
by slippery rails.
