C. C. Morgan Has to fight For Life
With Big Dcvli Fish
Seized around tho legs by a devil
fish, C. C. Morgan, a camper at Alkl
Point, had to fight for his lifo in tho
wator a hundred feet from Bhoro last
evening.
Port ot tho time tho fight with tho
vicious fish was carried on under
wator. Had ho not beon an excep
tional largo and powerful man.
Morgan would "havo lost tho fight
and havo been dragged down. As it
was, his logs wero badly bruised
and lacerated bolow tho knees, and
ho was exhausted when ho reacho.l
safety.
Morgan, who was formerly pro
prietor of a hotel nt the Great North
ern docks, recently sold out and has
slnco camped at Alkl Point. Ho to
a man about six feet two Inches in
height and weighs about 2-10
pouuds. To his size, wolght, and
strength ho owes his life, nccordlng
to his story of tho Btrugglo.
Morgan wns bathing about 0:30
last night. Ho swam out somo 300
foot and thon Btnrted for Bhoro.
When In about five foot of wator
something grnbbod his lug. Think
ing thnt It wns moroly seaweed,

Brigadier general, United Stntca
army, promoted from captaincy
for distinguished jBoryiflOj
Morgan kicked looso and lot his fcot
sink to .tho bottom, Intending to
wndo In.
In a moment Morgan was solzed
by both logs bolow tho knoos, nnd
discovered thnt ho was In tho grasp
of a dovllflsh, Ho struggled to koep
his footing nnd shouted for ltolp,
but was dragged under wntor. Dig
ging his fingers Into tho sand, Mor
gnn tried to provont tho devilfish
from pulling him out of his dopth.
Tho AbIj, howovor, was strongor than
ho, and was towing htm Into doop
wator, when, by tho oxorclso of all
his strength, ho spread his legs and
broko tho hold.
Desporatoly Morgan struggled to
ward Bhoro and managed to gnln
sovornl yards boforo tho dovllflsh
again reached him. Tho colling ton
tncles grasped his logs, but by
powerful struggling Morgan broko
away each tlmo and fought his way
nearer tho shore. As tho wator be
came shallower tho powor of tho
dovllflsh scorned to lesson, and in
threo foot of water tho fish aban
doned tho fight.
Morgan's wlfo and somo of tho
other campers at tho bench saw Mor
gan's struggles but wero unnblo to
help him. When ho first called for
help thoy thought fio had beon taken
with cramps. No boat was nvallablo
and tho strugglo wns. over boforo
anyone hnd done anything to aid
Morgan.
A doctor who was camping near
tho boacn nttonded Morgan last
night and ho Is resting enslly today.
Both logs nro badly swollen, pre
sumably being poisoned by contact
with the tentacles of tho fish.
"If you do not think it was a
devilfish, look at these," Bald Mor
gan, as ho uncovered his legs. From
tho knees down thoy woro bandaged,'
and pushing acido tho bandages
Morgan showed the swoolon wolta
which tho gripping tentacles had
left on his logs. The marks woro
unmistakable tho skin be'lng broken
in many places by tho crushing force
of the coils,
"During ray strugglo under wator
I lost two diamond rings from my
fingers. I presume whllo I was try
ing to get a hold in the sand tp save
J myself." Seattle Star.
Washington Astronomer Retired But

His place will bo woll filled, how

L. Rice of Illinois will bo appointed
to tho position. Ho was nppolntod
assistant in tho nautical nlmannc,

nnd assistant obsorvor in tho obser

ony Btnr-gnzlng thnt will nld In navi
gation or in advancing tho causo of
scionco, Mr. Rice Is ontlroly cnpablo

Incldontnlly, Prof. Rice has boon

Whllo Professor Rice wll. continue
to tench tho students of tho George
Washington university to turn their

Thero Is no doubt thnt this has ron-

A notablo dlscovory that thoso
