BE WISE IN TINE.
People Cannot Afford to Trifie
With the Eyesight.
Realizing This, They are Securing
Prof. Stewards Services.

Seattle seems to be full of wise people,
judging from the steady stream of callers
at the parlors of the celebrated New York
optician, Prof. F. d. Seward, now at the
Grand Hotel. His careful, scientific tests,
and the splendid success he has achieved
in accurately adapting his fine lenses to
the eyes of scores of ladies and gentlemen
who are troubled with defective eyesight,
cause repetition of his experience in the
large cities of the East and all the cities
that he has visited on the Pacific Coast.
In addition to the large number Of
prominent citizens of Seattle who have
called to have glasses adjusted, many have
come from Everett, Anacortes. Whatcom,
Port Townsend and other surrounding
points. Letters of gratitude are being re-
ceived daily showing the satisfactory re-
suits of the work on the Coast.
Those intending to consult Prof Seward
should do so without delay as he intends
to close his Office in this city in about two
weeks in order to give some time to
Tacoma, Spokane Falls and Helena Mont,
on the return trip to New York. The pro-
lessor regrets that he cannot comply with
the earnest solicitations to visit the Bell
ingham Bay cities. Prof. Seward is not
quack doctor but an expert optician whose
reputation extends from the Atlantic to
the Pacific and stands second to none.
Except in cases of charity, no glasses are
adjusted for less than $500. Consultation

Mr. Dorffer was more discreet than
valiant; it is generally entirely safe for a
white man to assault Chinaman; the
Ohinaman hasn't any friends, little pro-
tecelon within or without the courts; he
rarely uses gun, and when he does he is
VIGOROUSLY poor shot, which is fortunate
ior MIN, as a Chinaman, who under the
strongest provocation, killed anybody but
Chinaman. would have no more show
ior his life than a negro who killed white
man in Louisiana.

Ter does not look like a hero. He evil

OF mortals who never lose an opportunity

CONGRESS AND THE NATIONAL
GUARD.

The army of 10000 trained soldiers
which exists today, under the general
name of the National Guard, Is not in any
way subject to the direct control of the
United States government.
This National Guard is really body of
state guards, and this organized state
militia is not subject to the orders of the
war department, nor can the president
call it out in an emergency without first
securing the consent of the governor of the
state.
No militia exists of organized trained
soldiers in the various states which is SUBJ
ject to any orders from Washington,
and bill has been introduced by
Representative Cutting, of California.
which seeks to place the national gov
eminent in closer touch with the
National Guard and to give
the war department more direct oversight
and power. The bill of Mr.. Cutting pro-
vides for increasing to 100000 the
amount annually appropriated by congress
to the National Guard. One of its stipula-
tons is that every organization not ex-
cused by the governor must go into a
camp of instruction, or else be quartered
in a United States fort for heavy artillery
drill at least five consecutive days in each
year, besides assembling for drill and in
struction at least twelve times in each year.
Under this new bill the president is au-
thorized to call the militia into the ser
vice of the United STAGES in case of need
for period not exceeding nine months,
and to subject them to the same rules and
articles of war as the regulars, giving them
the same pay and allowances, and every
twenty miles of travel to and from the
rendezvous is to be counted as day of
service. Mounted men are to receive
forage and 40 cents day for the risk and
use of their horses, except horses killed in
battle or dying of battle wounds. 1t is
further provided that any officer or man
who refuses to obey the presidents call
may be tried by a court-martial, to be com.
posed of militia officers only.
