THE SAME OLD KICK
New Whatcom Stin Fighting to Main
tain the Boundary Line

New Whatcom stin Fighting to Main
tain the Boundary Line
The peace Of New Whatcom is again
disturbed by the demon Of local jealousy. |
When Mrs. Alice Houghton and Mrs.
Slaughter were on the Bay last week |
they chose TO put up at a tirst-class |
hotel, as becomes ladies Of their MEANS |
station and previous condition, and ac- |
cordingly they stopped at The Fair |
haven. As a result New Whatcom IS |
making a vigorous "kick." Hear the |
Express Of last evening:
"When Mrs. HoughtOn, commits !
sioner Of the Woman's Worlds Fair
exhibit, thi state, and Mrs. Slaughter,
superintendent Of the art exhibit, Wis
tied Bellingham bay to organize the
amazon phalanX of Whatcom county,
they evidently imagined that New
WhatcOm was little country village
and Fairhaven II mighty city repre-
sentng the whole county. They organ
lied a club in Fairhaven and came up
to New Whatcom after dark to see If
they could gather IA corporaps guard
here. The ladies of this city felt
sighted at this piece OF grim humor
and failed to respond, having already
held meetings and taken up the work
! before them in business-like and pro-
pressive manner The distinguished
! lady from Spokane and the energetic
superintendent from Seattle were alike
surprised to find even though the
mantle Of darkness was only partially
dispelled by our multtudinous electric
! lights, that the metropolis Of the north
west was on the north end of Belling-
ham bay, and were grieved at their
action i'm giving Fairhaven the prefer
ence Consequently they will again
visit New WhatcOm on or about the
18th Of this month, and "A large and
active organization Of the ladies Of New
Whatcom will result.
The ladies Of Seattle have presumed
to name the state flower. They insist
that the rhododendron shall have that
honor, and they shall have the credit
of naming it. The ladies all over the
state resent the presumption, especially
the ladies of Spokane, who want
"black-eyed Susan" a little yellow
daisy, to be adopted as the state flower.
The ladies Of New Whatcom are Of the
opinion that the naming of the state
flower should be left to a vote Of all the
ladies of the Worlds Fair clubs in the
state, and have sent petition numer
ously signed by the ladies' Of this com
munity, to Mrs. Alice Houghton to that
effect and protesting against the pre-
I sumptuous actions Of the ladies Of Seat
Z tie. They do not imagine that the
e petition will be entirely ignored, MOI
J that it will carry conviction with it'
mission, yet they submit that genera
expression, 10y this means, by the ladie
lof the state might decide the contro
versy as to manner Of choice.

Lisbon Girls.

As visitors to Lisbon know, many OF
the girls in the Portuguese capital are
very beautiful and attractive, says London
Figaro. But they are closely guarded,
never appearing unattended in the streets,
and rarely being seen on foot. Carriage
driving of a decorous kind is a favorite
anu sement, but the girl who follows the
queens example and appears on horse
back is regarded as very advanced in her
ideas. The girls play little tennis in
summer, dance and play cards for amuse-
ment in winter. They are rarely invited
to formal dinners as their parents are,
but are taken to the opera. The chief de-
light of these delicately bred and care
fully guarded maidens is the great bull
fight at Cintra, which some unconyen-
tional English girl, who carries her own
latch-key and travels alone in the
pIebeian omnibus, would scarcely have
the nerve to witness, much less enjoy.

Getting Even with the borrower.

A popular young fellow who is widely
known in athletic circles tells this story:
~ was in the Office of friend OF mine on
Walnut street, above Fourth, the other
morning, when rather seedy- looking
young chap came in, and nodding to him
in jaunty way, said: Billy, old man,
want to borrow dollar H-m-m-m,'
replied Billy, slowly, well, if remember
rightly, loaned you dollar last week.
So you did, said the visitor, but Pm
dead strapped and must have a dollar
now Billy pondered moment and re-
piled: Well, you're no good; I'm con-
WINGED OF that, and SO I'll not lend you a
dollar, but I'll give you one; how'll that
.do?' First rate, responded the shame
less striker, and then afters.a moment or
SO, as the cash was not Forthcoming,
he added: Well, where's the dollar you
are going to give me?' oh, replied Billy,
,smilingiy, I'm give you the dollar you
borrowed last week - Philadelphia

An.unnnnnr Like.

There is in Missouri lake, perched on
the top of mountain, its surface from
fifty to 1000 feet below the level OF the
earth surrounding it, fed by no surface
streams, untouched by the wind, dead as
the Sea Of Sodom. There is no point of
equal altitude from which water could
flow within hundreds of miles, and yet it
has periodical rise of thirty feet or over,
which is in no way affected by the atmos-
pheric conditions in the country adjacent.
It may rain for weeks in Webster county,
and the return OF fair weather will find
DEVILS Lake at its lowest point, while 1t
may reach its highest point during pro-
tracted drought.-St. Louis Giobe-Defno-
crat
