Lightship No. 50 was towed into the harbor yesterday by- the Tatoosh and taken to the buoy Btation at Tongue Point. The full extent of her injuries cannot be determined until survey is made. As she passed up the bay she presented a forlorn appearince, her smokestack being nearly over the board. No. 67 has not yet gone to 50's station and it is not known how soon repairs can be completed on her so she will be in condition to go. She has been at the buoy dock for several weeks un dergoing necessary repair, having been brought from Umatilla ' reef for that purpose. Further information as to the cause of the accident is meagre but from the small amount obtainable it appears that after she was over the bar Pilot j McVicar gave some instructions to the captain of the Port Patrick as to his j course. The ship had plenty of fail and ; it appears that the wind must have j headed her off as an hour after the tug j and pilot left her she was in collision. ; It is thought, from the way she acted ! and shaped her course that she is in- jured and is making an attempt to reach t0 i.(in..Mh t., culllpit,tc , ,H)lirse Puget Sound, and may be picked up by at t, ()r Agr:ultural Odlege. a passing ves-el and towed to that l .

Wife Works Harder than the Fanner," and took the nega tive side, us might be expected, favoring tho man in the case. The affirmative win presented by Messrs. Xymun, An- ilcr-oii unil Jhornijerry, ana uio nega tive was supported by Mise JelTcrs, l.einenwi'ber and Howard. Woman nev er received greater sympathy from man, nor more censure from her own sex, than that which followed.
