SOUND STEAMERS COLLIDE
Chippewa Rams Sentinel During
Dense Fog Saturday Morning.
6EATTLE, "Wash.. Sept. li In a dense
fog about 8:43 this morning the Chippe
wa, a large steel steamboat on the Vic
toria run for the International Steamship
Company, crashed into the Sentinel, op
erated by the Kitsap County Transporta
tion .Company, and. bringing about 35
prominent men and women from Crystal
Springs, a fashionable. Summer colony
on Balnbrldge Island.
The force of the blow swung the Senti
nel alongside the larger vessel and felled
several women to the deck, cutting the
wife of a South Beach physician behind
the ear. The vessels were lashed to
gether and the passengers of the Sentinel
went aboard the Chippewa over the gang
plank. There was excitement on both
boats, and the -cool-headed men on the
Sentinel had to use force to prevent wo
men and men from leaping overboard.
The Chippewa struck the Sentinel Just
abaft the stem and smashed the bow
like an eKRshell. Had the blow been
struck six feet farther astern the Sentinel
would have been cut to pieces, and there
would have been a great loss of life.
Officers on both ships kept their heads
and did all In their power to quiet the pas
sengers. Zhe. Bfrulnsl, Xa. jjni&.iQ "av"

Roseburg Orchard
rA" ten-acre orchard will actually produce every year an
income of $5000 when once in bearing. . There is no occu
pation you can select that pays as good returns with the
same amount of labor involved as raising fancy fruit.
More than four months of the year no work is required,
while the hardest Work is light as compared to general
faiTning'. '
Invest $25 a Month to
Earn $SOOO a Year
This is an opportunity to invest $25 a month of your sal
ary in some thing within your reach. Our development
plan for non-residents relieves you of personal manage
ment of your land. Your annual income after the fifth
year will be from $4000 to $5000. These figures are
actually borne out by the experience of many men in the
Umpqua Valley. . ,
Have a Home in the
Fertile Umpqua Valley
The Umpqua Valley is the center of the great fruit belt
of the state. Rich bottom land which will raise fruits
and vegetables without irrigation. Average annual rain
fall 35 inches. This is the earliest fruit belt in Oregon,
and top prices are .obtained in Portland and other mar
kets for early vegetables and berries.
An Orchard With an
Income the First Year
Inter-tree development yields a good income at once.
Potatoes alone will yield $150 net per acre each year,
which will more than pay for your land before the trees
come into bearing. The land is ready to cultivate. No
trees, no stumps, no brush and the price is less than is
asked for uncleared land in the more extensively adver
tised localities. '
We Will Plant Your Trees
Your Property
Develop
If you are not ready to live upon land and develop it for yourself, we will set out your trees, plant cantaloupes
and vegetables between the trees, furnish the seed and labor absolutely free of cost to you, market the produce
and at the end of the season pay you half of the profits. '. '
We have an orchardist of twenty years' experience who will superintend this work and a member of this com
pany will be 6n the ground keeping in close touch with the situation.
The soil of this valley is of such great depth that it has been proven that inter-tree development does, not
detract from the growth and vigor of the trees. One-half of the profits of this development plan ought to pay
for a tract in two years,' set out the trees, and provide a profit besides. . -
