The schafer Art Exhibition

The interest which our people feel in
art was well demonstrated last evening
by the large audience in attendance at
Prof. Schafer's art reception and sale at
Thistle's hall. All present, including
a number of local artists and competent
critics, united in the opinion that it is
the finest collection of real art ever
brought to the city. Prof. Schafer
was particularly complimented on his
brilliant sunset effects and bold
but withal fine picturing of
natures works. Among the
forty or more paintings in his col
lection are several fine exhibition
works, two of them being large paint
ings of beautiful scenes in the wonder
full Yosemite valley, i'm California.
These were awarded the principal pre-
miums at the late Mechanics Fair in
San Francisco, and also at the state
Fair last year. He states that they
will be sold TO the highest bidder Mon
day evening, positively regardless of
value. He will also give away two $50
paintings to those Of the audience Mon
day evening who are present at the
sale promptly at s o'clock and are for
tunate enough to be the holders of the
lucky numbers on the tickets, which
will be freely distributed. Jens Olsen
and G. +. Farrar were the lucky ones
last night.
Prof. Schafer is here for the express
purpose Of painting some of the finest
scenes for which our locality is noted,
for exhibition at the Worlds rair, and
it is quite evident that he has the
ability requisite to do it justice. The
hall will be open all day tomorrow for
the inspection of the collection, which,
by the way, includes two of the finest
works of the great figure painter,
Domenico Tojetti, who died few
months ago in San Francisco at the

TRIUMPH FOR THE FLAMES
Steamer Triumph, of Lynden,
Burned to the Water Line
Yesterday
Cargo of Hay for Hamilton &
Co. Goes Up in
Smoke
Narrow Escape of those on
Board. Nothing Saved. No
Insurance

AT an early hour yesterday morning
the steamer Triumph was burned to
the water line close, In shore at the
foot of Mckenzie avenue, where she
arrived about four o'clock from La
Conner with a cargo of hay for A..
Hamilton & Co. The captain and
crew, with te exception of the acting
fireman, who was detailed as watch
man, retired and were sleeping soundly
when they were aroused by the cry of
fire. They barely had time to reach
the shore. saving nothing but the
clothing they had on, before the
steamer was mass Of flames from
stem to stern, the twelve tons of baled
hay aboard burning with astonishing
rapidity. The hawser, by which she
was fastened to the shore, soon parted
and the wind and tide drifted the
burning hulk out into the bay, where
it floated until about Z o'clock when
the captain got line from it to the
Evangel which towed it TO the Ocean
dock, where it now lies on the beach.
The vessel, which was of 100 tons
register, was a flat bottomed craft,
drawing only two and one-half feet
of water, and was built at Lynden
three years ago expressly to ply on the
Nooksack river between that point and
the Bay cities, though she made fire.
quent trips to Seattle and her license
was recently extended to enable her TO
run to Tacoma. She was owned and
commanded by Capt. &. NJ. Maltby, of
Lynden, who is also part owner of the
Anna NJ. Pence, and was newly in
spected on the 18th inst. She cost
about 5000. The loss is total with the
exception of the machinery, which does
not seem to be much damaged. The fire
is supposed to have been caused
by spark from the smoke stack ig-
hitting the hay, or possibly by the drop
ing of coal from the fire box, while
the careless watchman was asleep.
Four men and one woman, the cook,
were aboard at the time and did not
even save their personal effects. One
of them, Y. NJ. l.. Bitoux, who was
carried by the Evangel to Fast Sound
and returned on the Dispatch, lost $77
in cash, his watch, and a gold chain
for which he paid Sl5 few weeks ago.
The latter he found in the wreck,
ruined, however, by the fire. The
watch stopped at five minutes past six.

ter, delicious lunch was being served
in the upper rooms. So pleasant were
the surroundings and varied and agree
able the entertainment that IL was long
past "midnight's holy hour" when the

bally the quarantine steps taken by
him and upon his suggestion the COM
mittee on health and police, together
with himself, was empowered to act in
the matter of providing a pest house
should any necessity for one arise.
The sewer question was then taken
up, the engineer reporting that $50, 900
Will cover the entire cost of all the
sewer contracts let by the present city
government. In the matter of the
brick received from Contractors Wem-
ken and Pearson, he reported that the
quality furnished by both is satis-
factory. He stated further that 450, 900
more will be required and that all of
them should be delivered not later
than September Is. Mr.. Kinghorn
favored letting the contract to the resi-
dent bidder, If he can furnish salts
factory assurance that he can deliver
them as fast as needed. Mr.. Wemken
stated that he could deliver 200, 1000 per
month. Mr.. Kinghorn then submitted
the following motion, which was car
ried unanimously:
"That the contract for 42S,0C0
brown burnt hard brick at the rate of
1925 per thousand delivered along the
lines of sewers, and the contract for
$1,000 select black burnt brick at
Sl2 per thousand, delivered along the
lines of sewers, be awarded to Abel
Wemken, under condition that the
brick shall be delivered as required by
