THE CoNJURER.

Into the world from far away,
Where the year is always tuned to May,
And the wind sounds soft as a lark aloft,
A conjurer came once on day.
Many mystic spell he knew
Wherewith to turn gray skies TO blue
To make dull hours grow bright as flowers.
And tasks that are old turn light us new.
A touch of his magic wand, and 10!
From empty hands sweet favors flow,
And pleasures bloom in lives of gloom
Where naught but sorrow seemed to grow
Out Of the stormy sky above
He brings white Peace, like heavenly dove.
His might is sure, and his art is pure,
And his name-the conjurers name--is Love

STOLE A STEAMBOAT.
Chartered by Confidence Men
and Moved to Victoria
The OWNER ON GOT PROMISES


= swlndAng game through which Ole
1onnseo. OF Calico. was cheated out of his
Lite steamer La Poloma xas perpesrassd
lev days ago by couple Of confidence
men. working in an unusazl manner. The
steamer In question is little more than a
launch. and had been used by Jonnsen
around Port Washington, where the boat.
as Wen As the owner, IS weI. known.
A5out week ago johnson wss an
preached by q man who gave his name ss
seymour and said he xas \ steamboat
captain- he wanted 10 charter the La
Poioma to carry matt between Everett and
some points N the islands. Seymour was
accompanied by another man whose name
Is unknown. aud both appeared to under
stand the steamboat business. They told
yonnsen straightforward story. and he
iet snem have the steamer. Whether any
papers were signed has not been learned,
Du' u Is customary In such cases for those
VINO lease boat to give the owner bond.
Saen formality seems 20 have been over
looxed In TINS case, and Seymour and his
companion secured the steamer and
Drought her 10 Seattle. After his boat was
gone Johnsen had misgivings over the
trade, and followed the craft 70 this city to
regain possession of his property.
but the alleged Seymour and his partner
were OF the smooth-tongued class. and
again persuaded Johnson that they were
al right; that they were going 70 Everett
10 carry the mail. and offered to take along
any man Johnson would select 10 repre-
sent him. This offer seemed 20 be made
in good faith and satisfied Johnson, who
selected James Davidson 10 accompany
the boat As the La Poloma steamed out
OF Seattle harbor with Davidson on board
Johnson thought his boat was in safe
hands and went home TO Chico with an
easy mind
But instead Of steaming to Everett,
Capt" Seymour went direct TO Vic
toria, tied the boat TO the dock, and.
with his partner. went uptown. David
son thought IL rather odd, but had never
been in Victoria and wanted to see the
town. He also wanted to watch the boat.
80 he remained on board all alone until
the steam had pretty we'll run down.
After he thought there was no chance to
get the boat of without raising steam he
went uptown to see the sights. When he
returned, an hour later, the boat was gone.
He hunted all over the harbor for it, but
could not find any trace of the craft which
he had been sent along to guard, and has
not since seen her. Realizing that he had
been cleverly trapped into leaving the
boat, he returned here yesterday morning
and told the story. before going TO Chico
TO render an account of his Stewardship TO
johnson, which he did yesterday.
1t is supposed that the alleged Seymour
and his companion will register the boat
a. Victoria under the English flag, change
her name and have boat OF their own,
while Johnson is wondering how he ever
trusted strangers well enough to allow
them to take his boat away.
