A Genuine Lady.

a writer il the Chicago Herald says a
genuine lady is modest, sweet-mannered,
spirited, unobtrusiYe, kind and without
malice; but nobody who is coarse has any
right to be called a lady. l don't care if
she is well dressed and rides in a carriage.
If she faunts pretentious jewelry, or dis
plays toothpick on the streets, oris slangy
and offensive tone at the theater, when
people around her wish to listen to the
play, If she enters place Of amusement
purposely late to make sensation, if she
is offensive i'll her manners, if she domi-
neers over the weak and toadies to the rich
and influential, and talks eternally about
others, she is no lady, and eternity itself
will never make her one.

THEY MUST PAY Up.
Olympia Capitalists Who Made a
Bad Investment.

More About the West Coast Fire and
Marine Insurance Company
President Kemp Captured 1n
Koyva and Now Im j ali I'm Tacoma.
There are several gilt-edged capitalists in
this city who are liable to be compelled to
''shell out" good hard dollars at an early
date, to redeem certain stock notes bearing
their signatures, by yirture Of which they
pose before an admiring public as stock
holders in the West Coast Fire and Marine
Insurance company, Of Tacoma, now de-
ceased. Out utofconsiderat1on for thefriends
and relatives of these yenturesome gentle
men, no names Will be published.
The trouble came about in this way. A
few months ago, Secretary of State Weir,
as insurance commissioner, while discharg-
ing the duties Of his office, made an exami-
nation Of the insurance company named.
He discovered that quite large amount Of
the assets Of the company had disappeared.
He forthwith lodged q complaint in the
superior court, making certain allegations
OF fraud, and asking that receiver be ap-
pointed.
The company fought the case vigorously,
employing as council Judge Ira ToWne, ex-
mayor of Tacoma, and senior member Of
the firm Of ToWne Is Likens. Mr.. Weir
conducted the case in person, it not being
deemed expedient to call upon the attorney
general of the state. After two months
litigation the court granted decree dis
solving the company and placing its affairs
In the hands of receiver.
A few days later j A. Kemp, president
of.the company, went east oStensibly on
important business This tended to arouse
suspicion and matters that had been passed
over somewhat carelessly before were again
examined and discoveries were made that
established beyond the measure of a reason
able doubt that Kemp had made way with
something in the neighborhood of $12, ,0O0
W. A. Rice, the receiver took the matter in
charge, and in conjunction with other in
terested parties placed a special agent on
trail of the fleeing president. He was cap
tured in a small town in Iowa several
weeks ago.
On Saturday the insurance commissioner
was notified by w. H. Smell, prosecuting
attorney Of Pierce county, that Kemp had
Veen lodged in jail where he would remain
until his case came up for hearing. Mr..
Smell is confident that the evidence against
Kemp is amply strong enough to convict
him.
There are four counts against him and
all of them are strong.
The affairs of the company are now in |
process of liquidation and it is announced
that creditors will probably realize so or
go cents on the dollar.
1t is thought that persons who gave their
personal notes for stock in this company
will be compelled to come to the front and /
pay up, and in that case the Olympia capi- |
talists viii be punched.

Beatty's Pianos ANA organs.

Hon. Daniel z. Beatty, the great organ
and piano manufacturer, is building and
shipping more organs and pianos than
eyer. In 1870 Mr.. Beatty left home pen
nlless plow boy, and by his indomitable
will ne has worked his way up so as to sell
SO far, nearly 100000 of Beatty's organs
and pianos since 1870. Nothing seems to
dishearten him; obstacles in his way that
would have wrecked any ordinary man for
ever, he turns to an advertisement and
struments, as is we'll known, are very pop
ular and are to be found in all parts Of the
world. We are informed that during the
next ten years he intends to sell 200, 900
more of his make, that means business
of $20,000,0O0 if we average them at 500
each. It is already the largest business Of

to me, for the crystallization of this pub
lie desire for national control OF THIS
maritime safeguard into Legislative en-
actment whereby effective laws will be
made to give some existing, or some new
department the supervision of quafan-
tines. At present the Marine Hospital
Service operates under law five Nation
al guarantees situated along the coast
south Of the Delware River, and three on
the Pacific coast. There should be
others established at New York,
Boston and Portland, under nat
ional control; and it remains for the
commercial and health bodies of the city
of Portland and State of Maine but to
move in the matter and urge the estab-
lishment of a fully equipped staff near
Portland, and Congress will give, feel
sure, favorable response. Then Port
land will be relieved of the expense OF
establishing plant-at least $4,000 for
a properly equipped one--and the cost
of its yearly maintenance. 1t seems to
me that one of the outer islands in Cas-
co Bay would offer suitable site as it
is desirable to have such a station re-
moved as far as possible from residence
or other valuable property Some official
expression of the municipal, CONNER
cial or health authorities asking for the
establishment of such a station would
doubtless place the matter in tangible
form before Congress, through the as
sistance of our Representative from this
District. -& '"'35

The Duke Of Ciarence's Illness "
Serious Than Reported.

LONDON, Jan. fS.-Though ON M0i.
day the physicians in attendance UpN'
she Duke of Clarence and Avoadat
took very cheerful view of their ps
TENTS condition, there is general opin
ion abroad that the duke is more seriousl,
i'll than his family and physicians would
have the general public believe.
Occupying the position he does, it i,
but natural that the English people
should feel deeply concerned regarding
the outcome of his illness, and there is
little doubt that their fears of break in
the line of royal succession has much to
do with the belief that the full extent OF
his illness has not been made public.
The latest official statement issued by
the physicians says that the infiamma-
ton of the lungs from which the duke
Is suffering is pursuing its course. They
add that his strength is well maintained,
but that no improvement can be re-
ported. The guarded statement of the
physicians is taken TO indicate that the
condition of the duke is less reassuring
Reports by the Exchange Telegraph
company state that the pneumonia il
developing into more severe type than
is announced by the physicians in thei,

Adrain and Bergen Will Preside
Over the Lawmaking Bodies.

TRENTON, N. j., Jan. 13.-The reor-
ganization of the New Jersey legislature
yesterday was quickly effected by the

tary; John II. Mattison, journal clerk;

Bergen was selected for speaker.
Governor Abbett's lengthy message

or societies; a limitation of the legal
work day; weekly or bi-weekly pay
ment of wages in cash; employers to be
prohibited from requiring pledges of
workmen to refrain from joining labor
unions; a law prohibiting the employ

One of the first things done in the
senate after its organization was the in
PRODUCTION by Senator Cornish, of War
rem county, of a resolution calling for
special committee to investigate the
state of affairs among the miners in
Oxford. The miners at that place are
said to be in a starving condition.
Senator Marsh, of Morris, introduced
bill prohibiting the granting of licenses
by any township. This will bring the
county boards IN line all over the state.
Senator Keys introduced bill which
has for its object the establishing of an
excise department to the state govern
ment. A dozen bills in all We're in
