‘ JOLLY PARTY BN '
At 9:30 o’clock Sunday morning the
good ship Sylvia, Captain Hancock at;
the wheel, carrying the first expedi
tionary force to Boswell’s bay, set
forth with flags waving amid the en
thusiastic cheers of the assembled
multitude. Admiral Thisted gracefully
•waved acknowledgment to the crowd
on the dock, and the momentous jour
ney was on. When opposite Hartney
bay the heart of every one present
leaped wildly with fear at the dread
cry, “A submarine!” Hastily Gunner
Swanberg trained the ship’s rifle on
a periscope which showed the loca
tion of the terrible enemy. Taking
careful aim, the noble marine pulled
the lanyard, halyard or other doflicker
by which such instruments are oper
ated. The first shot was thirty feet
high. A groan of consternation burst
from the spectators. Nothing daunt
ed, another shot was fired, missing
even further, and the hair seal dis
appeared, much to the sorrow of Mrs.
Swanberg, who wanted to make muk
luks out of his hide. Fearing further
danger, and having lost confidence in
the marksmanship of Mr. Swanberg,
George Dooley, Jr., was elected gun
ner, all voting “aye” except Mr. Swan
berg, who threatened to go home.
Arriving at the Pinnacle Rock Can
nery, the expedition was met by
Captain Charles Ross, the original and
only “lost” Charley, who presented
the keys to the city (jail) to Major
Dooley with a few well-chosen re
marks. After a brief response by Mr.
Dooley and an invocation by Chap
lain Kelly, the party proceeded to the
Ross farm, on the south side of the
hay, where Quartermaster Harry had
prepared a delicious feast. Consider
able delay was experienced in the
preparation of the salad, owing to the
fact that Mrs. Richmond ate most of
the apples and bananas, which com
pelled a substitution of fern tops and
other wild vegetables gathered by
Miss Helen Bell.
After dinner a program was an
nounced by Major Kelly. Mr. Foster,
on behalf of the guests, thanked
Messrs. Ross and Thisted for their
hospitality, and Mr. Dooley delivered
one of his characteristic talks. Dr.
Daggett was also scheduled to talk,
but was too busy flirting with his own
wife. Such conduct on his part be
ing contrary to the laws of the Mar
ried Men’s Protective Association
James Galen was substituted and
gave forty-four reasons why he|
should be elected road commissioner.
Dr. Daggett now’ gave a single-act
sketch, assisted by Mrs. Daggett, en
titled “Riding the Goat.” Nobody ap
plauded.
A trip to the ocean beach, chaper
oned by Mrs. Jack O’Brien, was un
dertaken. Here a catastrophe was nar
nowdy averted, for on the way Mrs.I
Foster aitd Miss Murtha attempted!
to cross a swamp and became in-1
volved in the mud. Chaplain Kelly,!
regardless of the danger, plunged in
after them. Attempting to lift Mrs.
Foster and Miss Murtha at the same
time, he broke dowm under the strain
and it was only by the combined ef
forts of the rest of the party that he
was saved.
Mr. O’Brien, Mr. Richmond and oth
ers went fishing. It is only necessary
to mention Mr. O’Brien and Mr. Rich
mond, as the others did not get any
fish.
The party reached Cordova at 2:30
a. m., full of happiness and clam chow
der.

ECLIPSE OF SUN
WHS CLOUDED
FOO SCIENTISTS
BAKER, Ore., June 10.—Scientists
observing the total eclipse of the sun
here on Saturday last were given ev
ery opportunity to make a successful
study of the phenomenon. The only
drawback encountered was a slight
cloudiness. The gloom was as deep
as at 10 o’clock at night at the mo
ment of totality, and birds and chick
ens went to roost.
