4 Queer PatTOl.
BX K HAYWARD.

In the quiet seclusion of his cell in one of the London short ntence prisons, prisoner No. 119 wondering what the world outside was ing about him. His fingers were busy with the piece of old rope he was making into oakum, but his mind was full of an imaginary report of his own case at the police court. He even hoped some of the papers might have devoted short leader to him, for his Otiense 8 strange one.
 Arrayed in a tattered gown of the cut peculiar to Camford bachelors of arts, with battered cap upon his head he had in broad daylight walked down Regent street breaking lamps with a long stick. Proceeding calmly and without hurry, and followed by rapidly increasing crowd, he had smashed some half dozen before a policeman appeared and took him into custody At the police court he told the magistrate that he had once been assistant master In school, but had lately got his living on the turf on tramp and in other more or less disreputable ways. He was willing enough to work, but could not get employment, SO had broken the lamps by way of advertisement. He had little complaint to make against the police He gave his name, Charles Micklereed to the inspector and that officer refused to further embel fish the charge sheet with his proper description bachelor of arts, St Boniface College, Camford. Sentence, twenty -one days Imprisonment with hard labor.
 No. ll9 was quite right in his surmises. His case was making good deal of sensation outside the prison walls. It was a slack time, and editors were rather short of subjects. They deemed Charles Micklereed's exploit 8 good source of cheap copy, and they were not wrong, for letters about it poured in freely. Some of his old college friends even proposed to do something for him when he came out, and three weeks is not long, there was just a chance they might not have forgotten him by the time he was released.
 AS the prisoner musing his cell-door was thrown open, and Warden Smith in official tones announced
 "No. 1l9, the chaplain to see you."
 The warder was not, however, quite accurate in his assertion, for the clergyman who entered the cell not the regular chaplain of the jai but the curate of neighboring church, who was visiting the prisoners while their usual pastor recruited himself at the seaside
 The prisoner stood up and faced his visitor who shut the cell door behind him. As soon as the sheep got fair look at the shepherd he exclaimed :
 "Why, Josh, old fellow, how are you2" at the same time holding out his hand, in evident ex pec- tation of friendly grasp. The Rev. Joshua Bam- lett recoiled little.
 '1 don't know, prisoner" began he, "whether you mean this as joke Let me tell you it is hardly the way to-"
 "0h! stow it, Josh," interrupted the unabashed

on thu 2Oth it will establish u steamer line
between Portland and the Puget Sound 70

through business This matter has been
und-i consideration OF tue managing Off.
cials of the company for some time and
il has been thought that road would be
laid from here to some point on the Sound,
presumably Seattle or Tacoma. As there
are various points on the coast between
here and Cape Flattery and also between
that place and Port Townsend. which the
company desire TO immediate The
plan of building road was deemed hardly
pactinabe, so it WAS decided that the
Portland and Puget Sound district should
be connected by a steamer line.
General Freight Agent b. Campell was
sent to San Francisco to make arrange
ments with the Pacific Coast Steamshi p
Company about securing steamers. he
secured the Idaho which will make about
four trips IL month, IL the venture proves
successful more steamers will be put ou
the line. Speaking of the enterprise Mr.
Campbell raid: This line will be q
feeder for Portland, or for that matter. for
all points that are tributary to Portland.
because the company can make through
rates at satisfactory figures to all points on
the sound and coast along which the line
runs. Our vessel will touch at Neap Bay
Port DuDgenesse, Port Angeles and all
points situated between Cape Flattery and
Port Townsend, with which we have
no connection. The new system will
bring within the reach Of Portland u large
territory of trade which merchants never
have been unable to touch before. There
will be no point on the sound that we can
not reach independent of anyone else
when our steamer 10 startedup. There Is
another fact that IL vt great Importance to
this place. BY our new service we can
receive freight at Portland tor Alaskan
points and transfer 1T TO the steamer that
has its terminus on the sound. Thus we
have established means whereby tho city
of Portland Is brought into direct connrc-
tion with points in Washington Territory,
British Columbia, and Alaska, whicn
have been practically out OF her way here
