NOTES OF THE TRADES.

Deck hands are not complaining, though en-
ployment is not as brisk as it was short time
ago.
The printers report work dull in the job offices
and a large number OF subs in the daily news
paper Offices
The 'longshoremen have had a dull week But
few vessels came in with cargoes and very little
loading has been going on outside of the lumber
vessels.
Secretary Tobin, of the Marine Fi-emen's
Union, says that there are fully TWENTY-FIVE to
thirty members of the uaion now idle on shore
and that large number have been forced to
seek other employment, firing in mills and such
work as they could find to do.
The sailors report employment still very dull
with no prospects of any Improvement The re-
ports of all their local unions along the Coast to
the general officers at San Francisco show that
anywhere else on the Coast, and, if anything
better. Those in Port Townsend probably have
a little advantage on account of the number OF
deep water vessels that clear and ship theil
crews there.
Ship carpenters have had the best spell oil
work last week they have had in some time L,
has been the dullest spring in the ship building
and repairing business that Seattle has seen in
long time. Last week, however, there were
quite number employed at the dry dock yard
repairing the Henry Bailey; the little schooner
San Jose, repairing on Lakes ways, and a new
tugboat which is being built in Peterson's yard
on Salmon bay, for the stimson Mill Company
have given employment to most of those who
follow the trade now in the city.

ANUS EMENTS.
The Power Of the Press"

The NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. and much-writ-
ten-about drama, The Power of the
Press, will be performed for the first time
III Seattle tonight at Armory hall. Ii was
mainly for the weeks production of this
piece that Manager Hanna incurred the
expense of fitting up Armory hall. as was
shown 10 theater-goers during the Mans
field engagement. 1t is specially fitting
NJ this Juncture to mention that the
acoustic defects Of the building which
were slightly apparent during Mr.. Mans
fields stay were mainly due TO the char
acter Of the pieces presented. That is, the
Mansfield dramas necessitatei quiet act

pitched. for the most part. in q low kew.
The art of the performers in that case Law
in representing high class. refined char
acters, and the effect would have been
wholly married by the vulgarity of leud
and robust speech. In The Power of the

10 the very latest production
of the modern mclodramatic school
Vigorous action, speech, manner and
gesture are prime essentials, and for such
performance the hall is admirably
adapted. The Power of the Presk" i

"Held by the Enemy."


Everyone who lays claim to knowl-
edge of modern dramas knows of such
plays as Held by the Enemy" "Shenan-
doah" and Alabama" OF all these
great war dramas the palm has been
awarded to the popular scenic play,
"Held by the Enemy" 1t was the first OF
the kind written by Gillette, and it fairly
took the country by storm. There is not
a single line. not even an inference, that
can be construed as an insult 70 either the
blue or the gray. As camly dispassionate
as an historical narrative, so far as sec
tional tone is concerned, it is equally well
coined by the boys who donned the gray
and the lads who wore the blue.
Indeed, its reception at all
times and at recurring intervals
has been such as to incline one to the be-
lief that it will still be cherished as
valuable memento of the great struggle
long after the last contestant and the
present generation shall have passed away.
1t happily interweaves with the realistic
horrors of war pleasing story OF love and
devotion, and it's fine lines abound in
humor as we'll as sentiment. The first
presentation of the play in the city will be
made tonight at Cordray's. The scenery
prepared is of pretentious character, and
its quality is in keeping with the artistic
displays for which this popular resort is
already noted.

Organized workingmen here are taking
great interest in the Coeur d 'Alene miners

take the locked-out miners places.
Saturday night party of ten laborers was
shipped from here, and when they were
getting ready to start member of one of
the unions met them at the train. He
found that quite a number of the party
were members of organizations, and they
told him they were only going as far as
Spokane; that the agent who hired the
gang told them there was no trouble in the
mines, but they all knew the facts and
only wanted to get free transportation as
far as Spokane. 1t was reported that
another party was to be shipped last night.

A CASE OF SMALLPOX.

dence-Careful Precautions.

dence-Careful Precautions.
case of smallpox was discovered at
Providence hospital yesterday. John
Johnson, laborer, aged % years, who
lives on the Grant street bridge, was
brought to the hospital on Friday believed
to be suffering from measles. The sisters
who waited on him believed from the
symptoms that the disease was smallpox,
and called in Health Officer Sparkling and
DR.. +. l.. Smith
The doctors examined the man and pro-
nounced the disease to be continent small
pox OF the worst type, and caused his re-
moval to the pest house. He had been
sick for several days before he was
taken to the hospital, but the nature
of his disease was not discovered sooner
because lit takes four or five days to de-
velop. Fortunately he had been placed in
an isolated room and had only been at
tended by one of the sisters. Everything
he had used was destroyed, the room was
thoroughly fumigated, and all the clothes
which the sister had worn while waiting
on him were burned, so that there is no
danger of the spread of the infection.
Johnson had lived in the city for long
time and had not been away, so that he
could not have brought the injection from
any other place.

Trouble with Electric Road Wires.

A leakage at the cross-over of the Grant
street and Rainier avenue electric railways
at the corner of South Third and Wash
ington streets caused a short circuit
which burned out the fuses about O'Clock

temporary stoppage of cars on both lines
as well as on the lines of the Consolidated
Company, by which the electric power is
supplied. Traffic was suspended at inter-
walls for about two hours, but finally the
Rainier avenue line was cut out and con-
nected with the Uuion Trunk Line wires.

and Tacoma this week was an interesting
event among organized workingmen in

the Typographical Union. The Tacoma

niscences of his experiences. He went over
his plans in detail with reference to the

Mr.. Childs with very neat and appropri-
ate address printed on handsome SOU

In a private conversation with c. f.

here today than in the East where he has
