Secretary Burbank, of the Tacoma
fire department has received from
chief Rainey the following communi-
cation from Astoria:
ASTORIA, Or, Aug. 3, 80.
ChiefJ. d. RGiney, Tacoma:
DEAR SIR: As you are now pre-
pairing for tournament for the year
1899, L desire to know if you want
the Northwestern Firemen's asSOcia-
ton to have anything to do with it.
We are ready to do anything that you
may ask in that direction, and will act
at once if you so suggest.
L have written to the board of di-
rectors to call a meeting and think
they will do so as soon as you answer
this. Should like to come to Tacoma
this year and see good tournament,
and participate also.
1t would be a shame to have this
year go by and no firemen's conven-
ton.
If you can arrange this so that we
can handle it We will do the best We
can. Yours truly,

BITTEN BY A SHARK.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Aug Ed
Roe, a young Englishman, while
swimming in the Cumberland sound
to-day with Is other boys from Fer
nandina, was caught by shark which
bit off the calf of one of his legs. Roe
was taken into a boat at once but bled
to death before medical assistance
could be- obtained. This is the first
instance known of a shark attacking
man in these waters.

The grape crop this year promises to
be the largest on record, particularly in
California. The white grape vintage
there will produce 35,O00,O0O gallons of
wine. But people in general are espe-
cially Interested to have the table grape
abundant, cheap and good. When our
country produces a table grape which,
like so many varieties in Europe, is deli
cate enough to be eaten, skin and all,
then we shall have perfection. We are
approaching it. Our grapes for eating
are steadily improving. Our people, too,
are becoming less dyspeptic and nervous,
and getting better compilations, as they
eat this fruit plentifully. A large bunch
of ripe grapes to begin breakfast with is
a tonic and appetizer for all day. It is
agood way to take grape juice.

Since the annexation of her

Since the annexation of her outlying
provinces, Chicago claims to be the sec.
ond city of the Union. She is absolutely
certain that the next census will give
her population of a million and a quar-
ter. Chicago always was modest. But
some of the newspapers in the city by
the lake cannot help Tapping their wings
and Growing out: "What has Philadel
phia to say to that?" Thereupon The
Public Ledger answers that all the in
habitants of Philadelphia are truly good
wise, intelligent and patriotic; that, ir
short, every one of Philadelphia's million
inhabitants counts for about ten of the
people of Chicago.

An American Steamship Line,

a company with capital of $40, ,000,-
900 is about to be incorporated for the
purpose of building in America an
American line of steamships to cross the
Atlantic.
The plans, so far as they are known,
are magnificent. At Montauk Point, on
the northeast extremity of Long Island,
Austin Corbin has bought 5000 acres of
land along the water front. 1t is here
that the new steamships will land, in
stead of passing around Sandy Hook and
up through the Narrows to the docks in
New York city. Twelve hours from
shore to shore will thus be saved. The
thronged docks and waters of the city
will be relieved of just that much
crowding and a second New York will
in course of time be built up about Mon
tauk Point.
The new steamers will be on the pala-
tial order. Each will cost million and
a quarter dollars. They will be of $4,000
tons burden, 1900 tons larger than any
of the present passenger steamers afoat.
There will be eight of them in the line to
begin, and they will carry each $500
persons in all, including 1000 steerage
passenger and 500 first cabin. The docks
to be built at Montauk will equal in size
and equipments those at Liverpool. The
new ships will carry only mail, passen-
gers and express freight. 1t is expected
that all the ships of the new line will
cross the ocean in five days.
The ships will be built and ready for
service in two years from the present
time. Finally congress will be asked to
grant subsidy to them for carrying the
mails

Three AMericas Congress.

Secretary of State Blaine has issued q
circular to the boards of trade in the
leading cities asking for suggestions on
the subject of the Three Americas con-
gress, which convenes in Washington
Oct. Q Measures will be taken at that
congress looking to closer union for
amity and commerce among the nations
of the western hemisphere. Hayti and
San Domingo have been asked to partici-
pate.
The movement is one that ought to
have been inaugurated long ago. All
the countries to be represented in the
congress are republics save one-Brazil,
an empire, and her policy is so liberal
and enlightened that she is almost good
enough to be classed as a republic. If
Canada should be invited, as she ought
to be, then every country in the whole
New World will be represented, and
good will and unity of mutual interests
will be placed on surer foundation than
ever before. Increased commerce be-
tween the United States and South
America will be one of the principal
subjects discussed. At any rate, the
congress will mark an era in the history
of nations. So vast an extent of terri
tory has never before been represented
in friendly alliance.
Some of the objects of the conference
will be:
Measures toward the formation of an
American Customs union, under which
the trade of the American nations with
each other shall, so far as possible and
profitable, be promoted.
The establishment of a regular and fire.
Quent communication between the ports
of the several American states and the
ports of each other.
The establishment of a uniform sys-
tenn of customs.
Another object will be the adoption of
a common silver coin by all the govern
ments Each country can stamp its own
device upon the coin, but its value will
be the same in all. Yet another object
will be to settle upon fixed plan for ar
bitration and the peaceful settlement of
all disputes between the countries of the
federation. The United States, the elder
and greater of the sister republics, does
well to foster such peaceful enterprises.

The exposition has brought prosperity
to France, and knit together the con-
tending factions in politics. A French
man cannot afford to quarrel when he is
making money. Therefore Boulangism
hides it's head, and the influence of Pres
ident Carnot grows serene and strong
day by day.

With Millet's great picture of the
''Angelus" coming to this country al
last, presumably because the French
government does not care to spend the
money to pay for it, another laurel i:
added to the achievements of American
money. The picture was sold for $110.-
900. The customs duties which the
United States levies on foreign works OF
art, 30 per cent, will bring the price uI
to S143,7SO When shall we have in
American an artist who can paint a pict
ure which will bring that much money!
That is the question.

Queen Victoria looks out well for hcl
posterity. After getting grants of money
for them, her next aim is to get them
titles. Her younger sons were made
dukes. She is now seeing to it that he,
son-in-law and grand son-in-law shall be
created somebody. The Earl of Fife
who marries Princess Louise of Wales
will be Duke of Inverness. Her majesty
is also extremely anxious that Batten
berg, who married Beatrice, shall re-
ceive the title of Duke of Kent.

Castle Garden Marriages.

The fame of Castle Gard>a as mat
rimonial market grows apace. On an
average 200 men apply every year to
the superintendent of immigration for
life partners. They are almost without
exception farmers, many of them from
the far west. Comparatively few Ameri-
cans are among the number. They are
mostly men who, at some time in their
lives, themselves landed at Castle Gar
den. Many of them live so far away
that they cannot come to take their pick
and choice in person, and these write to
the superintendent to select wife for
them and ship her. Marriage applica-
tions are, however, discouraged by the
authorities. They don't exactly like to
take the responsibility of matrimonial
agency.
No sentimental nonsense like bright
eyes or soft sighs enters into the calcula-
tion of those who seek helpmeets at Cas-
tie Garden. They want woman strict
ly for her working ability. She must be
labor like an OK. Thus will she earn her
way on the farm, and her frugal husband
will not have to pay servant girl for
doing his housework. Many of the men
seeking wives are widowers. Occasion
ally match reallyiis made from Castle
Garden.
Thus it is not at all romantic
freak that prompts men to seek wives
among the strong armed immigrants at
Castle Garden, but exactly the reverse.
In all the applications there never has
been but one from a woman for hus-
band She was German farm woman
from Minnesota. According to Sun re-
porter, she told the superintendent very
plainly what she wanted husband for.
what do want him for7'' says she. ''Why,
what do yon suppose want him for? haven't
been shaving all my life for nothing No, sir; ] We
got farm. have, and pigs, and cows, and horses
on it, too But amt going to work myself into
the grave Not much. want husband, do,
and husband that knows good thing when he
sees 1t, and can run a farm and handle plow and
feed stock and keep things going. What can you
do for met"
"1SuppOse you want handsome young fellow,
says |, with red cheeks and soft beard and blue
eyes, handsome hair and''-
Hold on says she, interrupting. Don't talk
nonsense. want man that's man, with good
muscle to him, and a broad back and heaps of
stay; one that can do good days work and can
do it over again the next day."
The superintendent called her atten-
tion to a good looking young Swede. She
eyed him favorably. The superinten-.
dent then went to the Swede and deli
cately limited his fiatterins prospects.
The youth gave one look at the would be
bride and an expression of horror came
into his face. He seized his young sister,
who sat beside him, by the arm, made a
bee line for the door and reached it, and
started off on a dead run. It was the
last that was seen of that swsde.

According to the Minneapolis city d.

The name of Austin Secore this year
occurs on the 977th of the pages devoted
to names. Last year it was on the
1,0l5th page. This shows that there are
up to this point thirty EIGHT pages of
names less this year than last, and the
decrease of names, taking sixty to the
page, would thus be about 1890. At the
same ratio the decrease when the work
lis finished will approximate 2,640.
