1t has been said truly that
in the economy of nature great
strength in one faculty is offset
by corresponding lack of it in
others and that moral weakness is
one Of the peculiarities that too often
waits upon genius History supports
this assertion with an array of great
names which even the most cursory
reader can easily supply. Warren,
the defaulter, furnishes a fresh
illustration of this fact, He was sub
sequently graduated at tho head of
his class at West Point, was first in
mathematics and noted for daring.
His adventurous spirit took him to
Japan where he rose to high position
in the army of the Empire and with
fame and fortune within his grasp.
his success in life was assured, he
suddenly !. tired without apparent
cause, abandoned his career of honor,
and returned TO his native land to be-
come a spend thrift and rogue and

We rise to remark that if Town
send Iron Works complete a commo-
dious ships ways at this place, as
soon will be done, why will it not be
in accordance with the eternal fit
ness" &c. to have the offices of In
spactor OF Hulls and Boilers removed
from Seattle to this town! The rea
son why they have been located
there is in the fact that we had not
facilities here for hauling vessels out
to inspect their hulls, and there was
no way to test their boilers. But
with the facilities offered at the. new
machine shop, and the marine ways
about tc be built, there is no reason
why inspection might not be made
as easy here as elsewhere. Vessels
to be inspected have to come to the
custom house for their papers, and
why not have all the official business
done at one place? The inspectors
have to report to the customs author
tiles here, and their work should be
done here if it could be just as well.

DANGER oF FIRE.-Last evening
there was an alarm of fire that called
our citizens into the streets in hot
haste. 1t proved to have been fire
originating in a China wash house
on Water street, next door to Norris
Williams tin shop. Investigation
proves shat the house was crowded
with occupants less than fifty
or sixty living in house that would
not be thought too large for an ordi-
nary white family. One of the Chi
namen had been smoking opium.
and had dozed off leaving a ligt burn
ing on Il little stand near by: when
the light set fire to the clothing and
interior of the room there was a gen
eral uproar, and only prompt action
saved the building, and perhaps the
whole block, from being consumed by
the flames, The business portion of
town will be visited with a destruct-
i've fire some day; there are so many
rickety, wooden buildings, insecurely
guarded as to stove pipes, &c, that
we cannot always escape. Were a
fire to occur at the present time there
are nine chances out of ten that it
would originate in one of these Chi
ma wash houses that we are blessed
with. Why? Because this almond
eyed aristocracy congregate i'll these
places as thick as bees in hive; they
smoke opium until stupefed. and
then accidental fires are easy occur
rences. In the interest of safety foI
property owners, the city council
should compel the removal of these
wash houses to some point beyond
the city limits. Another consider
alton, and very important one in
connection with this matter, is the
question of sanitary protection, At
every one of these wash houses the
dirty soap suds is poured out to run
under the floor or into the lowest
contiguous ground, there to mingle
its putrefying stencil with other moi
some odors, and 10 smell a match
against the opium stink that ''smells
to heaven" and offends the nostrils of
every passer by. Let the wash hous-
es be segregated from the business
part of town, and located where they
will not be such crying public nui-
sance. If we are to have the Chi
nese, like the poor, always with us" )"
let us compel them to observe such
sanitary regulations as would be inn
posed on American citizens. If ouI
city fathers do not heed timely warn
ing it is likely these places will be
complained of as nuisances to the
next grand jury.

Editorial Notes.

In the course of our visit to Whatcom
county few days ago We noticed a few
Items worthy of mention. At Coupcyille
Mr. :. Sullivan has contracted Ia build
an extension to the wharf. Mr. j. Robin
son, also: TO that of Pearson X Blowers
At LaCOnner We had the pleasure of
looking through the handsome and sub
stantial new hotel building, nearly com
pleted 10y Hon. John McGiinn, the pop
ular landlord at that point. The stUct-
ure already bears the sign: "McGlinu
House" Ii will be first class in all its
parts, and the dining room especially
will be one of the largest and pleasantest
on Puget Sound At Whatcom we
counted two dozen new buildings, most
ly business houses, that had sprung
sphinI-ike out of tie ashes OF the old
town, since our last visit three months
ago. We were assured there were more
new houses back in the brush little
ways" but We didn't have time to inves-
tigate.
The RereiHe is model newspaper,
and is evidently appreciated. 1t occu-
pies handsome, slightly building, quite
in keeping with the paper itself.
Fine crops and contented people were
noticed in the Sooksack valley. A town
site has been plated at Nooksack Cross
ing, the point where the Bellingham
Bay and British Columbia railroad is to
cross the Nooksack river Every effort
should be put forth to remove the upper
jam in the river, as it obstructs naviga-
lion and retards the settlement and de-
yelopment OF the valley. All the good
farming land in northern Whatcom has
been taken, unless it be little about a
large swamp, few miles from Semiah-
moo. On the steamer to Whatcom we
noticetl Gov. Newell, Hon. Jas. Power
and Capt. c. II. Hale, the latter two
councilmen elect, on their way to view
the growth of business and enterprise
along the shores of Bellingham Bay.
Senator Garfield, of Illinois, was also
on board. People continue to flock into
Whatcom county-all seeking land or
business location. At East Sound, on
Orcas Island, we noticed the hull of what
will be twenty or thirty ton schooner,
nearly ready to launch. 1t is being
built by Mr.. J. n. Fry, of that place.

THE CHARENToN CANAL.-It will

for the cutting Of the Clarendon Canal
have been forwarded to w ashington,
and as soon as the plans submitted to
the department. will have been APP
proved the work will be inaugurated.
This canal, which is to connect Bayou
Teche and Grand Lake, distance OF
about one mile, has been the object OF
much broaehing, and its realization
would be of incalculable benefit to the
whole Of this section, as it would not
only afford rapid transit to New Or
leans but would exempt us from a con-
slant and growing railroad monopoly:

Az, i. sun,
Mr.. Frederick Gebhard left Delmonicos by
the Fifth avenue door about midnight on Sat-
urday. Three other men went out at the same
time. One OF them was Mr.. william Sanford.
"Where are you going, boys?" Mr.. Gebhard
asked.
I'VE are going to call on some ladies'" was
the reply.
Mr.. Gebhard made an incredulous retort,
which was couched In far from complimentary
language, and Mr.. Sanford reioined.
81 tell you, sir that we are going TO call on
some ladies'. We may call on Mrs. Langtry for
all you know"
"You are q - liar !" cried Mr.. Gebhard.
Mr.. Sanford stepped up TO him and struck
him two savage blows, right hand and left, on
the face and neck. They were not returned.
Mr.. Gebhard said: "You shall hear further
from me-" and walked away.
Last evening Mr.. Gebhard dined at Delmon-
tco's with Mrs. Langtry. At table not very
far away sat Mr.. Sanford and his friends. Mr..
Gebhard took no notice OF Mr.. Sanford's pres.
ence. Mr.. Sanford raised his voice to say that
lie would like TO have Mr.. Gebhard stop out
into the park with him. Mr.. Sanford also
told several persons OF his acquaintance, who
were dining in the room, including Mr.. and
Mrs. Herbert Pell, that he had struck Mr..
Gebhard In the face the night before.
Mr.. Gebhard was at the Union Club last
night, and at II 80 O'Clock drove away in
cab with one friend.
