CHARGES AGAINST THE IDAHO.
Accused OF Running to Tacoma without
Pilot.

A complaint was filed with the deputy
collector Of customs yesterday against the
steamer Idaho. charging her with violat-
ing the law relating to licensed masters.
The name of the complainant was not
made public. The charges are not specific,
in that they do not state definitely what
the violation was. Captain Joseph Has
tings, the master and owner. holds mas
ter's license TO run coastwise, having been
master of the whaleback short time ago,
and this entities him 10 run anyw here on
the Sound on any boat carrying a pilot.
He can not get pilots license until he
has served year here.
Captain Bryant said he thought it might
be that the steamer made a trip from Seat
tie to Tacoma the other day without a pi-
lot. as Captain Hastings had informed him
that his pilot was about to quit and he had
another in view at Tacoma. The steamer
was not in port yesterday, so Captain
Hastings could not be seen. but the Gus
toms inspectors have orders to seize her
when she comes in. The statutes pre-
scribe line of 500 for such violations.

The kamloops, B. C., Sentinel says: The
surveying party running lines for the new
railway from Revelstoke to the Arrow
lake have marked out three different routes
as far as the crossing of the IilecilIewaet,
but have not decided which one to adopt.
Thence south the windings of the river
will furnish an easy grade, and make the
road picturesque one for tourists. A
large raft is used, with the necessary camp
fixtures. which is dropped down the river
as the work proceeds. Rapid progress is
being made under this system.

THE COMBINE MIGHT BREAK.
Some OF Union Pacific Steamers Nav
Again Run on the Sound.

Port Captain f. J. Rathbone, Of the
Union Pacific steamers, returned from
Portland yesterday. lie said the steamer
Victorian arrived around all right, but the
Union Pacific did not propose to take
around any of the other boats for some
tine yet and that there was possibility
OF the company putting them into service
here again. Just what reason the com
pany has for contemplating such course
Mr.. Rathbone did not state. but the infer
enee IS that the present arrangement is not
working entirely satisfactorily.
Captain Rathbone is still retained in the
com9any's employ. and will spend his
time looking after its property until such
time as things are more definitely settled.

NORTHERN PACIFIC CHANGES.
Nadeau May Succeed Chilberg as Ticket
Agent-The SUPPLEMENTARY.

ARent-Ine SupeFintendency.
1t is probable that, if /. A. Nadeau re-
mains az general agent of the Northern
Pacific. as he most certainly will. he is
likely also to be city ticket agent, the posi-
ton now held by A. Chiiberg. This ar
rangement would give him full charge of
the freight and passenger business of the
road in this city, with s. G. Fulton, the
assistant general freight agent. and A. d.
Charlton, the assistant general passenger
agent, as his immediate superiors.
While it IS probable that ". II. Brim-
son will be appointed superintendent of
the Lake Shore road and assistant super
intendent of the Northern Pacific IN this
city, to succeed Mr.. Nadeau. Mr. Mills,
formerly superintendent of the Montana
division OF the Northern Pacific, is also
talked OF among railroad men for the posi-
ton.

An evangelist of wonderful powers is
Rev. B. Fay Mills, who has recently

STATISTICAL STUDIES.

A late census of the city Of Lima, Peru,
shows it to have population of 100, $50, oil
which 1880 are males and 54,10 are
females; 70,96l of the inhabitants can read
and g.. 995 can neither read nor write.
The popular vote was about 10000, 900 in
1884. about 100000 in 1883, and it will
probably reach Is. 000. 900 votes in 1897 The
total is forty times greater than that cast
at the first presidential election, and larger
than the electorate of any country in an
eient or modern times.
Humboldt estimated that Asia stands at
an average height Of l.l50 feet above the
= level of the ocean; South America, 1,I30
North America, $50; Europe, GO. The aver
age height of all the land above sea level
emitting Africa and Australia, which are
mostly south OF the equator-is about sc
feet.

The Oldest and Youngest Teachers.

The honor of having the oldest and
youngest school teachers in the United
States belongs to Pennsylvania. The
individual honor of being the oldest
teacher belongs TO Samuel Campbell, the
principal of the public schools of Port
Royal, Juniata county. The youngest
teacher is Miss Clara n. Greenwald, of
Bernville, Berks county.
This young lady is not yet sixteen
years old. She was born in Greenwich
township, Berks county, on the Oath of
January, 1877. When she was six years
old she became one of her fathers pupils
in the Penn primary school. Three
years later she was promoted to the
grammar department. She pursued her
studies with great diligence and success
Two years ago next June she presented
herself to the county superintendent for
examination. She passed the ordeal and
received license to teach. The offer
of a position in the Penn primary school
was accepted. In spite of the opposition
of people who thought her too young to
teach she organized her classes success
fully and soon had forty pupils under
her direction. She taught them in way
that eventually silenced all criticism.
AT the close of her term she entered the
Normal school at Kutztown. When she
completes her studies she will resume
her chosen profession.
