EUREKA, Cal., Jan. 17.—An ex
pert of the United States navy who
has made an examination into the
condition of the cruiser Milwaukee
expresses the opinion that the vessel
cannot be floated. There is already
signs that the cruiser is breaking to
pieces.
SEATTLE, Jan. 17.—Dr. W. S.
Lamson, a well-known dentist of Se
attle, was found dead in his office
here yesterday afternoon. Heart fail
ure was the cause.
SEATTLE, Jan. 17.—The subma
rine N-2 was successfully launched
at 10 o’clock this forenoon from the
ways of the Seattle Construction &
Dry Dock company. The submarine
was completed at a cost of a half mil
ion dollars.
ON THE RUN
Walter DeLong, in charge of the
commissary department of the Alas
kan Engineering commission, is de
termined to prove that the Anchorage
harbor is open and that ships can dis- j
charge their cargo. To this end Mr. I
DeLong took the initiative in the mat
ter and ordered the tug Roscoe to An
chorage. Mr. DeLong said this morn
ing that he was positive that the car
go could reach the Anchorage dock
and the tug unloaded within two
hours. The only trouble that might
arise will come from the lower and
of the arm, but this is problematical.
Mr. DeLong advises The Times that
this is merely the beginning of the
trips and that the Roscoe will ply
beween here and Seward and Seldovia
the balance of the winter, proving
conclusively that the question of a
winter harbor is assured with a little
dredging work on the part of tne
government. A closed harbor in the
bay waters of Anchorage is simply a
bugbear and not a fact—this has been
proven.
AT THE EMPRESS.
Great Human Drama of a Submerged
Soul’s Conflict and Triumph.
The names of Daniel Frohman and
Clyde Fitch in connection with any
stage production whether on the
speaking or silent stage, is a positive
guarantee of merit, artistry and stage
craft incomparable. These two noted
men, both past masters in their call
ing, are responsible for “The Straight
Road,” a powerful drama in four parts
of motion pictures to be presented at
the Empress theatre this Thursday
and Friday, January 18 and 19.
In this magnificent drama, Miss
Gladys Hanson, one of America’s most
talented young leading women, admir
ably portrays the wonderful character
of Moll O’Hara, the girl of the slums,
who rises above the mire of her squal
id and iniquitious environment to
make one of the most tremendous sac
refices of which the heart of woman is
capable. How her prayer is answer
ed, her enemy crushed, her innocence
established and her love and faith re
stored is dramatically developed in the
thrilling climax of this powerful film
drama. It is a picture overflowing
with intense interest from beginning
to end.

ney—Some Suggestione Which Might
Be of Help.
Here's a new one.
Suppose you are a championship
golfer, getting In line for the national
amateur. You are putting in time cor
recting and lengthening your tee shots,
perfecting the cleek and brassie mo
tions and doing some putting on the
home green when no member of the
greens committee is about You insist
upon all the courtesies of the game and
all that goes with it while you are prac
ticing. You insist upon absolute si
lence, for you know everything de
pends upon your complete and utter
concentration upon the club and the
ball.
Well, if you do not you are unusual,
for that Is the way the game of golf Is
played. Some persons have said that
golf Is 10 per cent golf, the rest eti
quette. However that may be, the fact
remains that there Is a lot of It—eti
quette, that is.
Here’s a New Way to Play.
Well, here’s the new one.
Instead of pulling down the shades
when you start to putt, why not take
with you a section of the baseball
bleachers some day, till ’em full of pop,
popcorn and pep? tlave them line up
back of you. and tell them to stay Just
out of club’s reach all the way around
the course—and of course keeping up
their racket all the time.
It has never been done. Nobody
would do it even with this suggestion
on their minds. But the question has
been a bothersome one for a long time.
Why wouldn't it be a good idea for a
man to get himself familiar with all
kinds of disturbances when he is pre
paring for a big tournament: harden
his nerves as well as his muscles: train
his concentration in that direction, so
that he will concentrate without think
ing about it when he does confront a
gallery?
Play before a crowd you must If yon
are going to get into the semifinals or
finals or any kind of championship,
and the more important the tourney the
bigger the gallery naturally. Few
players of championship caliber have
been unaffected by galleries. In fact.
It Is doubtful if there ever was one who
wasn’t even if he did not show It on
the surface—and there have been more
than two or three golf‘ championships
won by the men who were less dis
turbed by the gallery than their better
golfer opponents.
A case of fact: It was In the 1914
western amateur championship at the
Kent club. Grand Rapids. Jimmy
Standish and Ned Allis were the play
ers, and one would go Into the semi
finals. They were square at the finish
of their round and had to go an extra
hole. Both were on the green In twos.
Standish away. Jimmy sank his put!
for a 3, and Allis should have bad a
half, for he had a more or less easy
putt.
Applause Causes Him to Lose.
As galleries go, the one that had
been following Allis and Standlsh was
about like all the rest When Standlsh
put down his long putt they applauded.
It was not cheering by voice—nothing
like that It was hand clapping and a
few nervously spoken words by excit
ed. shrill voices. Allis set himself for
the putt that would either give him a
half and still have them square—or
lose his chance for a championship.
Well, everybody who reads golf
knows that Ned missed that short putt
Allis was game. He never said a word
about the really unsportsmanlike ap
plause, but that was what beat him out
of his chance for a title, for Ned was
playing better golf than Standlsh.
Had young Ned Allis been prepared
for the nerve racking outburst of a
slightly hysterical gallery he might
have sunk that putt and history as to
golf might have been different that
year.
In that same tourney—in the final
match with Evans—Standlsh was
bothered considerably by the gallery.
In the final of the western champion
ship In 1912 at Homewood the gallery
was a nuisance that was felt by nearly
every player.
