Andrew Thor- | vik, master of the whaling steamer Westport, which arrived in Seattle :yesterduy from Port Hobron, Al- aska. “The giant whale was of the blue variety and gave us a long battle,” said Captain Thorvik.' “He;| was the largest whale killed during the season by the crews of four; whaling steamers operating out of | Port Hobron in the service of the American Pacific Whaling Com- pany. The big fellow was harpoon- ed by Chris Olson, gunner of the | Westport.” The whaling steamer Paterson accompanied the Westport south | from Port Hobron. She is com- | manded by Capt. Peter Ones. The other two “killer boats” of the| American Pacific fleet, the Moran and the Aberdeen, are expected in a few days. The vessels will be | tied up for the winter at Bellevue on Lake Washington. The American Pacific Whaling Company gave employment all sum- mer to 270 men. The whaling fleet had a very successful season. The station crews and whale products from Port Hobron will be brought down from the North by the steam- ships Derblay and Denali of the Alaska Steamship Company.

Parsee Migration To Persia Sought By Shal’s Agents BOMBAY, Oct. 18—Twenty In-| dian muilti-millionaires, whose total fortunes are estimated at $300,000,- 000, have been invited to settle in Persia, the land of their fore- fathers. The invitation was issued under a scheme to set aside 1,000 squave miles in Persia for the 100,000 Parsees, whose ancesfors were driv- en from their homes 1200 years ago. The shah of Persia has en- dorsed the plan. The vast fortumes of many Q{ the Parsees living in India were magde mainly in the coton industry. Business circles in [Persia believe that returning Parsees would invest money in Persian industries. e ee— STEAL SULTAN'S PRAYER RUG ISTANBUL, Oct. 18—A prayer rug, valued at $250,000, was stolen while en route to the religious Mu- seum here.
