Bring ing a thrilling story of her fight with a. German submarine off the Virginia coast, the British steamer Keeniun docked here today. Her encounter with the enemy raider Thursday was a running battle in which the Gernians used five inch guns and showed as much speed 'as the Kecraun. According to the story by the cap tain of the vessel, the submarine at tacked the Keeniun at 6:30 o'clock Thursday night off the Virfinin capes. With the first shell from the sea pirate, the gun crew of the Keenum opened fire on the submarine, which is apparently one of the largest type or the undersea fleet. The ranee was then 1700 yards and with sh'lls from the five inch gun of the U-boat throwing up fountains of spray around the Keemun, a running fight started which lasted until the fceemun fired her last shot at 11.000 yards, or about seven miles. The Keeniun 's guns were worlung rapidly, returning shell for shell. Both vessels moved through the water at 12 knots an hour. Just hoW many shots were exchanged could not be accurate ly learned, but it is said the battle was one of the hottest in these waters be tween a merchantman and a German U-boat. The Keemun made quarantino early this morning and tho naval author ities here obtained a lengthy statement from her captain and forwarded at once to Washington.

After the German women have reg istered, they are not permitted to leave this district without tho permission of the postmasr or the chief of polioe, according to where thoy have reg istered.

Of these four, in Oregon and Washington are found three varie ties. It grows mostly in land suitable for cranberries and grows near Marsh- ficld4n quantities and in Pacific coun ty, Washington.

Today it may be the war, and yet, this is the farthest idea in any man's mind. "We are going to win the war," says every red blood ed man in the United States. Why? Because we must win. When is a failure? When the last true Amer ican has been killed or cap tured the war will have been lost. When a head of a family dies without leaving an estate he has become a failure. What will you be? "If" your life is insured you canont become a failure. Better attend to it today. MUTUAL LIFE OFFICE .371 State Street J. F. Hutchason, Dist.
