sNoBB1sH DRY GOODS CLERKS
How Mrs. Ross WinanA Of Baltimore,
Bought Two Cas1, mere ShANis.

Yong excellent paper corrected the in
science OF two popiniay clerks. who
| sighted plainly dressed ladies with well
filled purses recently i'll one OF our pala-
| ces of fashion, thus driving OFF perma-
nently two good customers and cutting
| Of very handsome profits from short
sighted employers. But the little. con-
ceited human poodIes, who sometimes
| By mistake are used to I'll important po-
sitious IL large mercantile establish
| lEents are not :he only creatures who as
| sumo that fine birds always wear fine
feathers. A little incident, which actu-
ally transpired N a magnificent dry
goods store in Baltimore not long since,
shows this fact.
TWO sPLENDIDIy DRESSED
Girls were in pleasant contab with sen
sible young clerk. over some rich camel's
hair shawls which their e1cheGuer was
rather too short to reach. a lady in
neat calico dress came II and smiling
pleasantly, bowed to the cle-k and, sat
down to wait her turn. The young clerk
wen. over to the plainly dressed lady,
asked her to excuse the house for mo-
ment as every one was engaged. and po-
litely returned to wait on the two fash
ionable girls but they were indignant
and with concei.ed pride sarcastically
asked how he could have the assurance
ito leave ladies to wait on that person."
THAT person" plainly overheard tie in
sul.ing remark which was rudely de-
signed for her ears, and rightly con-
sidering the gay young ladies IN
worthy Of consideration, the lady
d
where they were conversinS to the hand
sou.e young clerk and quietly asked him
the price of the camel's hair shawls
which the Fashionable young ladies were
signing for. lone hundred dollars
apiece. madam, - said the clerk. Take
two of them out and put them on my
horses, If you please, said the lady IL
the calico dress. And the order was
filed to the letter. Tie plainly dressed
lady, after making other purchases, |
walked out, took her seat in her carriage
and the two young girls Of fashion
learned that Mrs. Ross Winans Lad paid
two hundred dollars for the pleasure Of
giving them q wholesome lesson. Mrs. |
Winans may possibly have erred under
the impulse of the moment, but few with
her millions at command could have re-
sisted the instruction to retaliate Mrs.
Winans' munificence every winter brings
comfort and happiness to hundreds Of
poor people in Baltimore, but she pre-
fers to dress plainly. and doubtless there
are many sweet ladies in San Francisco
who Initiate her example, 1t is to pro
tect them from insolence and to show
them that impudence is not confined to |
male puppets alone. that We furnish this !

We EARNESTLY HOPE that Frank Page
has been reelected from the Second
California District. He is not only a
straight, fearless, outspoken Republican
and earnest co-operator with Corham
and Sargent, but he is one OF the very
best and most useful representatives in
Congress from any of the States. The
last advices show him to be something
ahead, though his chief opponent,
Larhin, is close at his heels. futile,
the Dolly Warden dummy, is nowhere in
the race.

PoRT TOWNSEND HARBoR.-We
have not thus far said anything
about this harbor as winter port,
but as we notice in the up.Sound
papers that, for few days, Olym-
pia, Tacoma and other places were
blockaded byice, that water-pipes
froze and steamers experienced
much difficulty in making their
landings, we may as well state for
the information Of our contempo-
raries, that during all the cold
weather there has not been a par
ticle of ice in our bay, except what
we noticed one day on the wheels
of the North Pacific, on her arriv-
al here from the frozo n regions up
Sound. Our harbor has been as
open as in midsummer, and when
the magnificent feet of between
forty and fifty square-rigged yes
sells, which we mentioned in our
fast issue, arrived from sea, they
found Port Townsend harbor as
open as the Straits of Fuca which
they had just sailed through.
These exceptional cold winters
are very rare, but when they do
come there is one harbor never
closed, and that's Port Townsend

TIE OLIVER WALCOTT.-This
revenue cutter has entered on duty
in this district, having arrived in
our harbor on the Sd inst-three
and one-half days from San Fran
cisco. She is an excellent sea-
boat and all her appointments are
first class. She was built in San
Francisco in 1873, and registers
1SS tons. She has direct invert-
ed cylinder, thirty-four inches in
diameter with thirty-four inch
stroke, and will make ten knots
an hour on eight and one-half
tons of coal q day, Her horse
power will aggregate at this speed
2G0. She carries two guns, with
a complement of six officers and
twenty-eight men. We subjoiu a
list of the former; Captain, c. NJ.
Scammon; LIST Lieutenant, H. w,
Howard; I'd Lieutenant W. F.

TUE California, Capt. Hayes, ar
rived at this port on the Sd inst.
She left Sitka on the 25th ult, and
Wrangel on the 27th. Her officers
state that arrangements are being
made among the Stickeen miners
for the vigorous working of their
claims the coming season. A large
quantity of freight was brought
by this steamer for the house of
Rothschild & Co.

A SETTLER from Semiahmoo,
named Robert A. Craig, while on
his way to this place, on board the
steamer Phantom, in search Of
medical aid, last Saturday, died
just before the steamer reached
the wharf. Upon the fact being
known, his remains were taken in
charge by Pot Townsend Lodge
No. 6. +. and A. NJ, and on the
following Monday consigned to
their last resting-place,, in the Ma
sonic cemetery, attended thither
by the Order, of which he was a
member. He was 81 years of
age, and left a wife and one child.
