HISTORY OF THE SUSIE.
short Sketch of the Steamer Blown
Tn at Tacoma.

The steamer Susie, blown up at Ia
coma Wednesday. was built in this
city, near the present site OF Almond
& Phillips machine shop, by the late
Captain 0lney in 1879. She was built
especially for grain-carrying purposes,
with turnscrew propeller to lessen
her draught. John Nation, who put
in her machinery, was then carrying
on one OF the only two machine shops
in Seattle.
The vessel was chris'ened Susie, in
honor of Mrs. NJ. r. Maddocks, who
was an intimate friend of Mrs. 0lney.
Just previous to the purchase by Capt.
0iney of the steamer Bob Irving.
which cost Capt. 0lney his life so hor-
ribly on the Skagit two years ago. he
sold his interest in the Susie and since
then she has changed hands several
times.

Prohibition in Maine and Kansas.

Chicago Inter-0cean.
The famous Maine liquor law was
first laid before the legislature OF the
state in 1850, but was defeated. The
election which followed was one which
excited much popular interest, and a
number of very strong advocates of
the law were elected. The law was
again brought forward at the next ses-
sion, but no action was taken upon it
till the last day of the session. Then,
i'll one day, the bill was carried through
and was promptly signed by the gov
ernor, taking effect throughout the
state from that moment. The vote
for the bill stood Is to 10 in the senate,
and So to 10 in the house. The govern
ment of the state was then Demo-
cratic, and had been SO by large ma
lority for many years. Governor Hub
Dard, who approved the bill, was re-
nominated, but was defeated because
his action was not generally approved
by his party. The temperance Demo-
Gratis forthwith abandoned their old
political affiliations, and the Demo-
cratic party has been minority in the
state ever since. The Kansas law was
in the form of an amendment TO the
constitution, prohibiting the manufac-
ture and sale OF Intoxicating liquors
forever in the state, except Tor medi-
cal, scientific and mechanical pur-
poses" The amendment was decid-
eddy champloned by the Republican
party, the candidate of that party Tor
governor, John F. st. John, being most
active in the advocacy oil the prohibi-
ton policy. Governor St. John was
elected by an absolute majority OF over
$1,000 votes. On tine prohibition
amendment the vote stood 81 ,302 for,
i,3oi against There was some ques-
ton as to whether q mere plurality
vote was sufficient TO carry an amend
ment, but the courts decided that it
was enough

4 Dignin-d Cat.


At the Quincy house. in Boston,
may be seen in the office an oil paint
ing OF an immense yellow cat The
first time | noticed the picture | was
proceeding into the dining-room, and
while waiting for dinner was amused
at seeing the original OF the picture
walk sedately in all alone, and, going
all alone 10 an empty table, seat him
self with majestic grace in an empty
chair. The waiter seeing him, came
forward and pushed up the chair as he
would for any other guest The cat
then waited patiently without putting
its paws on the table, or violating an
other law OF table etiquette, until a
plate of meat came cut up to suit his
taste Il did not hear him give the or
derl, and then, placing his front
paws ON the edge OF the table, he ate
from his plate. When he had finished
he descended from bis table and
stalked out OF the room with much
dignity.

Mr.. Hale intimated that he had some
information bearing upon the matter
and could bring some valuable wit
