IS SAFE AT HOME Friend of Same Name Went Down on Mine Sweeper BREMERTON, July 16.—Chief Machinist Frank R. King, of Brem- erton, who was at first reported to have been killed in the disaster which sunk the mine sweeper Rich arde R. Buckley, in the North sea, July 12, is visiting his home here. The naval vessel which was sent down by a mine explosion during mine sweeping operations, was in command of Commander Frank R King, not a relative of the Bremer ton officer. Commander King went down with his ship, refusing to save himself and directing the rescue of survivors until the final plunge of the craft, Commander Kfng was stationed, from 1907 to 1913, on various ships of the Pacific fleet, which based at the navy yard here. He was a na- tive of Alabama. He was appointed to the naval academy at Annapolis in 1903, Chief Machinist Frank R. King, of Bremerton, and Commander King served together on the battleship ‘Wyoming, in 1916, and had been in- timate friends for years prior, “King was a whole-souled, typical American,” said his friend here to: day, “and losing his life to rescue Others is a traditional feature of American seamanship, The confu- sion in names was only natural, since we were both stationed here at different times.” PALACE HIP THEATRE Continuous Daily 1 te 11 YOU CAN “REEP co 99 NEW DOUBLE SHOW TOMORROW Six BIG ACTS HIPPODRO VAUDEVILL FEATURE ‘PHOTOPLAY « STARRING MADLAI TRAVERSE “ROSE OF THE WEST” Mates 10C | Stseare 20 rm 1221-Third Ave COR UNIVERSITY LAKE HIGHWAY Commissioners Decide to} Finish Boulevard The ‘county commissioners will go to Olympia some time this week to confer with the state highway com jmisstoner for permission to let the contract for the completion of the Lake Washington boulevard all the way around the lake, ‘The decision | to complete the boul made by the commissic day but the lowest of the bids sub-| |mitted was $9,000 above the county Jengineer's. estimate and had to be rejected, If the highway commissioner ap. prves the plan, the entract may be let, but if he turns it down the county will have to get new esti mates and advertise it again, Recent boosting of lumber prices| by lumbermen is given as the rea son for the increased cost, A trestle 2,500 feet in length, requiring 600, 000 feet of lumber, will be The lowest bid offered Tue: by Hanson and Hague, $76, the engineer's estimate was $67, 916.89.
