San Juan Graphic: From this distance We are
unable to Judge as to who may be in the right or
wrong OF the strike, and IL matters but little

principal upon which our society and govern

no man or set OF men are compelled TO labor Tor
an individual or corporation against their
wishes, or to engage in such employment that 10
not congcnial to themselves Neither IL any
person or company obliged TO employ such per-
sons whom they do not desire The employer
has the undoubted right to hire whom he pleases

unionist, Just ~ much - the man who wishes
employment has q right to accept or reject ofers

vass matters between individuals and VIII re-
main 20, and no organization can interfere or
set this principal at naught."
Tacoma Lerioer: "Small factories are indeed
desirable, but II is weak policy that devotes IL
self to them entirely. 1t is true that the surest
way to get large factories is to encourage small
ones; but the wisest plan is to work for all en-
terprises, great and small, that can be made sue
cessful That sort OF work cannot be successfully
prosecuted by ward meetings or by school dis

organization, of which all should be members
and to which each should contribute his share.
Such an organization can take up any PROPOSE

of Captain Frank white.

Vancouver News-Advertiser.
Captain Frank White was master OF the sealing
schooner Sea Gull, of Port Townsend, and had
reached the northern sealing waters. During
storm, about ak weeks ago. the schooner was
driven ashore on one Of tho Queen Charlotte
islands. heavy sea was breaking over her,
but it was almost two days before she went to
pieces. During that time the crew managed to
get two boats ashore and q supply of provisions.
The weather continued rough for some time,
and the shipwrecked men were at q loss 70 devise
means of reaching some habitation-, Captain
White had the thoughtfulness to set his men to
work to make an immense raft, more with the
object OF the giving them employment and Keep
ing them from fretting rather than OF thinking
to reach safety by it. A favorable day at last
came, and though storm was evidently brew
ing, the men thought themselves able TO make
Banks island, about seventy miles distance, but
near the mainland, before the wind would
spring up. They succeeded well for the first
few hours and had come within eight miles OF
the desired haven when the storm broke upon
them. One boat managed to reach the main
land, not where they had intended to go, but
still they had no reason to complain OF their
misfortune These were afterward picked up by
O steamer from the canneries where they told
that Captain White and Noble had certainly
been cast away. Captain White, however, and
his friend George Noble weathered the storm
bravely. When the storm broke upon them
their mast gave way and their boat became help
less. They driftsd away from their companions
and this fact gave rise to the impression that
they were lost. But such was not the case.
After lying for ffty-two hours at the mercy OF
the waves they drifted back to Queen Charlotte
island. The Boscowitz on her last trip went to
those islands, where the two unfortunate sailors
were taken aboard. Neither of them had any
money and on the vessel were offering the last
OF their possessions, their guns and ammunition,

of the Princess Louise and afterwards OF the

products that swell this materially. We will

The Tacoma g lobe needs to be reminded
that the Posr-ISTELLIeEscER recognized
both the exceeding merit and the exceeding
popularity of Mr.. Blaine many years ago:
that it was, in fact, an ardent supporter
of Mr.. Blaine for the presidency long years
before the Globe came into existence.

trimmed with white satin and gold braid, and
carried in her hands a large bunch of pure white
roses. After the ceremony a reception was held
at the residence Of the brides mother 1911 35th

relatives were invited. Miss AMY Chamberlain
who acted a. bridesmaid, was prettily attired
IN a dress very similar to that Of the bride.
Mr.. A Herbert Wrenn was best man.
NEEDED IMPROVEMENT.
The most needed street Improvement in town
is that Of S5th street from Road to sd. Since
the introduction Of electric cars on High street
all the funerals that formerly went by this
street to Holy Rood cemetery now 60 up 35th

which the above mentioned street is filed
make 1t anything but pleasant road for such
aPu-pose.
The contractor is rapidly pushing the work
on the new Phillips school building, and me-
chanics who have examined it state that it is
one Of the best constructed public schools in

Since the concreting Of Atm street between

PRESENTED TO THE zoo.
The Big Elephant which VIII Hereafter
Belong to the Government.

Dtiouk 10 Oosefufhcht
At the performance of Forepaugh's circus
this afternoon an Asiatie elephant named Dunk
was formally presented to the government for
the National Geological Park The presenta-
ton was made in the large menagerie canvas.
Mr.. James E. Cooper, the proprietor Of the
Forepaugh shows and who donates the ele-
phant stated that he trusted that the gift of
the elephant would stimulate not only the next
Congress, but many private individuals, to aid
in placing the National Geological Park fer in
advance of all similar institutions Now artists,
students and those interested in com parative
anatomy were obliged to study abroad This
new institution, he hoped, would be so COM
plete that it would keep them at home and
attract scientists from other lands to this coun-
try.
FORMALLY ACCEPTED.
Or. Frank Baker, the superintendent Of the
park, accepted the magnificent animal on be-
half Of the government In explaining the
efforts which were being made TO establish the
park he stated that Mr.. CoOpers gift would do
more to encourage. aid and give them n nucleus
for greater things than anything that had yet
been DONE He closed by handing Mr.. Cooper
a formal letter of acceptance of the elephant
from Prof. ). p. Langley of the Smithsonian
Institution dunk" was then ordered to
move. Manager Joseph T. McCaddon Of the
show caused him to be placed between two
other elephants, BAIL and ''Nellie," and the
procession started for the Geological Park.
There are not many persons who have the
power or opportunity to make presents OF liv-
ing elephants. Even the rich potentltes who
rule in the Indies seldom give such a valuable
article from the herds which they possess. In
the history of this country the Adam Forepaugh
show has shown its generosity on two previous
occasions Bolivar, one of the largest animals
in captivity, was presented to the Philadelphia
Geological Garden. Tippo Said, another mon
ster Of larger size, was given to the New York
Geological Garden.
DUNKs HISTORY.
Dunk was imported to this country twenty
one years ago. He weighs in the neighborhood
Of four tons and is about eight fee. nine inches
in height. He is valued at 0,0O0. For sew
eral years he formed one Of the most interest
ing features of the show. being known the
performing baby elephant Five years ago he
was promoted to the performing group. He is
growing tall that it will shortly be impossible
70 transport him on the railway. His trainer
Aeagher, thinks it will be only question Of a
few years when he will surpass in size the

A Noble and Charitable Woman Passes
Away ut q Ripe Old Age.
The death last night at IL o'clock Of Mrs
Jane Farnham at her residence, at 18th and N
streets northwest, will be great shock to her
many friends. Mrs. Farnham has been 80
closely identified with Washington for upward
Of fifty years that beg loss will be most keenly
felt in every direction. In the direction of
charities Mrs. Farnham was the embodiment of
hberality and energy. She not only gave freely,
but unsparingly used her time and strength in
the accomplishment Of good works During
the war when misery and suffering were
rampant in this city Mrs. Farnham was es-
pecially identified with the local measures Of
relief. The Woman's Relief Association, which
did such magnificent work in the hospitals
during that period, owes its success in large
measure to the earnest efforts of Mrs. Farm
ham, who acted as treasurer for the associa-
ton, most of the meetings of which we're held
at her residence on II street. Mrs. Farnham's
activity did not cease with the war and since
that time she has been untiring in church and
charita BILE works. She was nearly eighty years
of age, having been born in Maryland in 1911.
She had lived in Washington for seventy-five
years and at the residence at 18th and N streets
for fifty years. Her death is mainly due to the
shock caused by the death of her daughter
Jane on February Z, 1891.
The house in which the death occurred IL one

occupied by Mrs. Farnham for fifty years. Mrs.
Farnham leaves behind q number of children
and many grown grandchildren. One of her
