WARLIKE YANkEES.'

a Seaman's Glover EdSo That Failed to
Work.
The, recent war talk has revived some
stories of the prowcss on the sea Of old
time down east Yankees. It is related
taat Capt John Dix, famous shipmas-
ter of Portland, was in q West Indian
port once where Brit i3h man of war
was blazing away at target. The
British gunnerS were unable to come
anywhere near the target, and after
watching their laundering for some
time Capt. Dix loaded ali old ships
gun which he carried, using chunk of
iron for q shot He fired, and when the
smoke cleared away the target was q
wreck. Immediately q boat from the
man of war came alongside, and an Of
fcer in full uniform came over the rail,
demanding an explanation of the Yam
KEGS performance. Capt. Dix assured
the officer that no disrespect was in
tended-that he only wanted to give
the Britishers a lesson in gunnery, and
he offered to furnish another hogshcad
for them to practice on. After scolding
little the officer burst into a laugh at
the absurtity of tho situation, and
went back TO his ship. The captain of
a Yankee privateer, sailing from q
Maine port in 1912, mistoolr an English
seventy-four for an East Indiaman, ran
alongside and ordered her to strike her
colors. The scvcnty-four's ports flew
open, her broadside was run out and
the captain replied: 81 am not in the
habit of hauling down my colors."
''Wcll, if you won't, I WILL" answered
the Yankee, who lost his vessel but not
his head.

TIE COMMON GENDER.
olthcuttics Occasioned by a Lack of Femi-

oifhcutties occasioned by a Lack of Femi-
--... ninity In Our Language.
There really seems to be no hope for
words which we class as common
gender, SO that we shall perhaps for
ever hear our servants refer to their
LADY fricnd' or their 'gentIeman
cousir," says a writer in New Peterson.
Nor can we desire such complete diff
tcrentiation that would compel us to be
strictly logical in giving the feminine
OF 'Michigander," or constrain us to
toItow IN example already set in refer
encc to womaa's convention as ssmoy-
ing IN the even soprano of their ways"
rms latter might be improved upon by
saying mcZzo-soprano OF her way. But,
joking aside, how are we to refer to the
presiding officer OF an assembly of
women? VIII Mrs President do? Or
shallwc, IN our rules of parliamentary
practice, suggest the chair? Pcrhaps
THIS would answer. But suppose the
chair appoints a committee, and in an
nounclng the members desires that
Mrs. a. should preside at the delibera-
ttons Of this committee, how shall
shall She indicate it? Shall she say:
Il appoint Mrs. A. chairman" or chair
woman? This latter bears too close a
resemblance to charwoman to be nom
ular, and, in the broad pronunciation
of some, might be mistaken for it.
Would it do to say chairmistress? If
not, what shall we advise? Again, we
are likely soon to see women on our
Jurics, and it is more than probable that
one of them would be selected to rem
der the verdict. In such an event con-
fusion might result, inasmuch as our
statutes prescribe the functions of the
foreman. Shall these states, rs soon as
they admit women on the jury, revise
their statutes in this regard? If SO,
what change must be madc-forcman or
forcwoman? foreman or foremistressp
or what?

The Hop Crusade.

The Methodist preachers at late
meeting held at Tacoma took a very
decided stand against the cultivation
of hops. 1t is not the product itsel
that they condemn, but the use q
larger portion il it is put to, by the
purchaser, in the manufacture OF beer
In orGer to restrict the consumption
OF beer, they intend to make it diff.
cult for the brewers to obtain an essen
tial ingredient Of that popular bever-
age. The woman and children must
not hereafter pick hops, no matter
how necessary it may be 10 earn a
livelihood, and will be held to an
equal accountability with the wealthy
hop-king who may employ Indians
and Cinnamon to harvest his crop,
and sell as cheap or cheaper than
when white labor is employed.
But to be consistent, should not
this crusade extend equally to grape
culture. which is, in this State, in its
infancy, and more easily CONTROLLED
Or should not the same inhibition ap.
ply to wheat, corn or rye, which make
an equally palatable and much more
effective means of intoxication
Should not the sugar cane come I'M
der the ban, to be consistent, to reduce
the production OF rum, or the barley,
to remove the base of the juniper
berry favored product called gin? All
these natural products of the soil have
other uses, equally with the hop, but
there has been no action, so far as We
can learn, for the suppression of any OF
these commodities.
The only effect of the ministerial
edict, like the Pope's Bull against the
comet, will be to brighten the faithful
The same acreage of hops will be
cultivated, the same number of tons
sold, the same number of breweries
turning out the same number of bar.
rels of beer and the same number Of
glasses drank across the bar. The
only ones who will suffer will be those
who have been able to gather together
a little money during the hop season
to buy shoes, clothing and food. Viii
this result satisfy our Jealous friends
who are seldom in need of these ne
cessities of life?

A few days ago a number OF
prominent railway and steamship men
visited Tacoma and other Puget
Sound points, ostensibly on trip for
pleasure alone. They came here from
Vancouver on the City of Kingston and
among them were II. j. Marshall,
general passenger agent OF the
Dominion steamship line of Liver
pool; +. f. b. Evans, traffic agent, and
j. J. Gilbertson, city passenger agent
of the Canadian Pacific, also of Liver
pool. James q. Wright, vice president
of the American steamship company,
was also with the party and after they
returned to Vancouver he remained
behind one day and then departed for
San Francisco. Since his departure
it has leaked out among steamboat
men that he is on the Pacific coast
with a view to establishing line of
passenger steamers between Puget
Sound points and San Francisco
during the continuance OF the Mid
winter fair. He will also make the
service u permanent one if the bust
ness warrants it. Recently the
American steamship company, which
operates line of steamers between
New York and London, had a number
of new vessels constructed. These
have replaced the old ones and it is
said that if Mr.. Wright accomplishes
the purpose of his trip the old
steamers will be brought around the
Horn and established on the coast
route

Mis- Pixlev died in London, on Thurs
day, the 9th, OF brain fever, at the resi-
dcncc of her hrother-in-law, Edward
Fuliorl. She was taken seriously i'll
about two months az. while in New

Of earthly ambition.
Annie Pixley COR Annie Shay, as the
family name was was born in Brookll N,
y. y, in 1870. The family, besides the
parents, consisted Of three daughters
Annie, Minnie and Lucy. They came
to san Francisco in 1877, where they
resided till 1862 then moved to Nevada
and established tho" Pixley Settlement"
near Lake Tahoe. There was exhib-
tied the existence OF that talent, which
afterwards developed into such brilliant
success. Annie and Minnie Pixley
made their debut at Carson, in i'm
promptu dancing and singing, and it
was such a decided hit that visits were
made to the mining camps OF Nevada
and California with great success.
Later on, the Pixley family came to
Olympia and after giving several per-
iormances settled down as permanent
residents, Mr.. Pixley doing odd jobs
of bricklaying and and his wife did
sewing. The children attended school.
In 1871, the girls, appeared at Phlhar-
monte hall, Portland, and afterwards be-
came attached to Waldron's company
at New Market. 1t was there that Annie
met and married Robert Fulford, an
actor of much merit. The same year
1S73) Minnie married Z. II. Nc
Cracker, prominent business man of
Portland, and retired from the stage.
The subsequent career of Miss Pixley
is too well known for narration. 1t is
known that she has made fortune and
attained a worldwide fame as Miss"
in the dramatization of Bret Harte's
" Luck in Roaring Camp" She has
added to her reputation, by the admira-
BILE rendition of leading roles in many
other plays, but none have come up to
this masterpiece of dramatic work.
The husband, mother and two sisters
survive. Both of Mrs. Fulford's child
rem are dead, Lucy Pixley is an
operate singer of some note and is now
with company in the East.

AS to Hawaii.

A Washington dispatch of Tuesday
says that the fear OF the friends OF the
present government OF Hawaii is that
Minister Willis will push President
Dole to an immediate decision and
demand prompt surrender of his
authority on the ground that the
provisional government put the limit
OF duration on its own authority, and
that limit expires when it lie decided
that there is no chance OF annexation
to the United States. There have
been rumors from the State Depart
ment that the United States have not
entered upon an attempt to restore
the Queen without thorough under
standing with all foreign powers, and
it is said that the government has re-
ceived assurance that no objection
will be raised to its plan. Great
Britain will unquestionably welcome
the restoration of Queen Liliuokalini,
and the prospect of the early accession
of the Princes Kalulani as the best
hope of government distinctively in
British interests. By the convention
of France, 1913, England agreed to re-
frain from ever annexing the Hawaiian
Islands, or taking them under a pro.
tectorate, but she has never ceased to
try TO influence and control the local
government to her interests. The
restoration OF the Queen will effect the
United States interests in the Pearl
river harbor. The exclusive right oil
the United States to the use OF this
harbor was reciprocal, q consideration
granted for the free entry OF Hawaiian
sugar into the United States, but the
general free entry of sugar under the
Mckinley law worked an abrogation
of the special advantage enjoyed by
the Hawaiians, and they hold that
the right of the United States in Pearl
river was terminated by it. Some dis
appointment is felt in administration
circles at the expression OF public
opinion against the Hawaiian policy,
but there are no indications of waver-
ing in its purposes.

The Jacksonian Test.

The Jacksonian test of honesty and
capability should be closely applied to
every candidate for municipal position
this year. The qualification of honesty
should apply in its broadest sense, and
cover sincerity OF purpose and fidelity
to pledges which will exacted for re-
trenchment. Capability should like
wise be carefully considered. There
are many good men, honest men,
faithful so far as they are able to be,
who make poor administrators Of
public affairs. 1t is not surprising.
Place a dentist in blacksmith shop
and he could not put q tooth in a
harrow; carpenter in print shop
and he would not know how to plane
down a form; pressman in a gun.
smiths shop and he would use q
d" sheep's.foot" for shooting-stick."
Those called upon to administer
public affairs should have some knowl-
edge, practical at least, OF political
economy. They should be close oh.
servers and logical reasoners. They
should be men who have shown some
capacity tor management OF their own
business affairs; men whose opinion
bears upon it the impress of thought.
Inasmuch as the voter succeeds in
selecting capable men for office, he
adds to the strength of the govern
ment and promotes his own welfare.
When he votes blindly, influenced by
friendship or other than patriotic con-
siderations, he weakens free govern
ment and contributes to his own down.

Dynamite in France.

At midnight, Wednesday, an at.
tempt was made to blow up the official
residence of Feneral Mathelin, com
mander OF the Fifteenth corps, al
Marseilles, France. The house is
surrounded by high wall, into which
inches for sentry boxes are built
though owing to the late quiet condi
ton OF affairs no sentries occupy them
Cases of dynamite were placed in these
inches, also one in the hallway of the
house, and one in the orderly's room
adjoining the apartments occupied by
the General. About midnight the
last mentioned boom exploded with
fearful force, shattering the walls
breaking every pane of glass in the
house and the adjoining house, and
badly damaging the buildings occupied
by girls school and the octroior
food-tax buildings opposite the gen.
erals residence. In fact, the force
was so great it was felt mile away.
The supposition is the dynamiters
expected the first conclusion to set of
all the other cases. Had this occurred
there would have been great destruc.
ton of property and heavy loss OF life
AS it was nobody was hurt.
The outrage is supposed to be the
work of street car strikers, whose
strike was defeated by the aid OF
soldiers. A rigid investigation into
the affair is in progress.

THE AUGUSTA EXPosITION.-For the
third time, last Tuesday, in the his
tory OF Augusta, Ga, the people OF
that city have been joined by the rep
resentatives OF over half the States OF
the Union in the formal opening OF
Augusta exposition. On this occasion,
however, there joined with this enter
prise the Georgia State Fair, under the
management of the Georgia State Ag-
ricultural Society, the two combined
forming an exposition that equals in
its scope and magnitude any similar
enterprise ever attempted in the his
tory of the South. On the opening
day $4,000 people turned out to wit
ness the grand procession, military
and civic bodies and tiremen OF the
city. In the building was the finest
agricultural display of Southern prod
ucts ever seen. In the industrial,
mechanical and electrical departments
nearly all the States and eight nations
are represented. Among the attrac-
tons are many of the best features
from Midway Plaisance OF the Worlds
Fair, and other features of the fair,
stock, cattle, poultry and pet stock
exhibits.
