held recently in Chicago. and he was SUBJ
sequently summoned to Washington,
where his appoin tment to this station was
determined upon, at least temporarily.
Mr.. Pague has a somewhat extended
acquaintance with Pacific Coast weather,
and the knowledge of highs" and Flows
which he gained when he was student in
the Academy of the Signal Corps of the
army has been increased by nine years OF
actual observation on this coast.
Mr.. Pague was assistant in the local
Office when Captain Craig was forecasting.
Previous to that he had passed through
the Signal Corps Academy at Fort Myer,
Virginia, and bad served in the station on
Mount Washington and in Cleveland,
Ohio. After a year and half spent here
he was sent to Roseburg, which is the key
to California weather, and remained there
about the same length of time. He was
then transferred to Portland as forecast
ing official. having charge of the reports
from Oregon, Washington and Idaho.
Mr.. Pague is also director of the State
Weather Bureau Of Oregon, as indeed he
organized it, and his relations there are
such that he does not wish TO change sta
lions, and hence his appointment for the
local station has been made for six
months, at tine expiration of which time, if
he still desires, he will probably be re-
turned to Portland and some one else
placed in charge here.
This appointment will just cover the
rainy season, and as there was no other
available man Chief Harrington decided
to transfer Pague and leave the Portland
office in charge of the assistant. The at
mospheric conditions here are such, and
the location being right on the ledge" of
the service, that it makes it extremely diff
fcult for an Eastern man to successfully
study the signs of approaching storms, and
an importation from one of those distant
stations would probably have worse luck
than Jenkins did when he took observa-
tions through an inverted winrglass.
AT any rate, it is understood that per-
manenL appointment will be made next
summer, and that until that time people
who get caught downtown without rain
coat or umbrella will have to demand sat-
lsfacton from Forecast Official Pague.

FIELD OF SPORT.
Meeting of Sportsmen-Deciine of
Gaelic Football.


The monthly meeting of the Sports
mems Protective Association will take
place this evening. A full representation
is looked for as the nomination OF officers
for the ensuing year will take place.
A prominent sportsman who has made a
study of the question of protection of
game birds will address the meeting on
this occasion. and no doubt his opinion
will be worthy of close attention.
At the annual meeting of the National
Oarsmen Association it was decided that
only clubs whose dues were paid up 20
date were eligible TO send a representative
to meetings Of the association. and that in
case q representative or alternative could
not be present he might be represented by
a proxy, provided the proxy had a certiti-
cate signed by the absent delegate, but the
proxy must be a mem Der OF the same club.
A meeting of the directors of the Olym-
pic Club will be held on Wednesday even
ing.
Owing to the many wrangles that have
taken place between the mem berS of the
Gaelic football clubs last year the couser-
vatlve athletes connected with the aSsocia-
tion have Withdrawn from the clubs they
represented. cons equently Gaelic football
is at low ebb this year. Looking at the
situation as it now stands, it is extremely
come popular unless the belIgerent mem-
bers are weeded out and their places filed
by intelligent athletes. The game is SUI
peUiOr 10 all other football games when
contested and governed strictly by the
rules of Gaelic football, which permits of
no pugilistic encounters.
On Saturday next the Olympic Club team
will contest against the eleven OF the
Berkeley University at Central Park, and
the Stanford team will meet the Reliance
Athletic Club team at San Jose. The two
games Will give the patrons of football a
good idea of what chances the Olympic
Club team will stand against the Reliance
Club. So far as the college teams are
concerned only the coachers can guess at
conclusions, as the crack elevens lnvarI-
ably keep several plays hidden from the
general observer until the final day, when
they let go every trick they know to win a
victory. Although the Stanford players
are in strength lighter than their oppo-
nents this year the general opinion is that
the team representing Palo Alto will walk
away with tue honors of the season.

to recover 100000 damages from the six
creditors who had thrown him into invol-
untary insolvency. There he was bounced
upon by Deputy Sheriff and was be-

COREA'S COMICAL ARMY.

The true comicality of the Corean court
can only be properly estimated upon one
of the occasions, somewhat rare IN occur
ence, when the king goes in state through
the city to visit some temple or tomb.
OF one such function a correspondent of
the Pail Mall Magazine was the einterested
witness. From an early hour 10 the
morning the streets were guarded by
military of a species unique in the world.
The infantry held the roadway, and were
for the most part lying asleep on the
ground. They had almost as many flags
as men, and their muskets, which 1 ex.
amined as they stood piled together, were
commonly destitute of either hammer,
trigger or plate, sometimes Of all three,
and were frequently only neld together
by strings, while the bayonets were bent
and rusty. Infinitely more remarkable,
however, were the cavalry. These were
clad ID uniforms probably some 300 years
old, consisting of battered helmei with
a spike and of d culrass OF black leather
studded with brass bosses and worn over
a heavy ierkin of moth-eaten brocade
Enormous jack boots completed the cos.
tune aud rendered il difficult for the men
to mount their steeds, even though these
were rarely more than eleven hands high

IMPULSIVE JAMES III.

James II. resembled his ancestors
in their impatience to wait the gradu-
ally undermining processes OF time.
He was the creature of his own lm-
pulses. He was, besides, inately ad
dicted to cruelty. When still duke of
York he derived ruthless pleasure
from the persecution of the Scottish
Cameronians, and is reported to have
looked on with severe serenity at the
inffiiction of torture, especially that of
the boot. He had the feelings Of a
Spanish inquisitor and regarded the
suppression of heresy as the first duty
of Christian monarch. But his vim
dictiveness was not confined to re-
ligious offenses, says the Gentleman's
| Magazine.
Rebellion against an anQinted king
was crime similar and only inferior
in degree to apostasy from the church
O Rome In this spirit he refused
mercy or commiseration to the duke
of Monmouth, his own brothers ille-
gitimate son. In the same spirit he
employed the pitiless Jeffreys, nor
does he appear to have been shocked
by the bloody assize or by the un
speakable atrocities committed by Col.
kirke and the "lambs" Three years
sufficed to create an irreparable rup-
ture between the king and the vast
majority of his subjects. His hasty
flight from his kingdom averted the
horrors Of civil war for the moment,
and his later appearance in the field
at the head of mixed army of French
and Irish Romanists was little calcu
lated to recover the good will of his
Protestant subjects, while his precipi
tate flight from the Boyne to Dublin
fatally tarnished whatever reputation
for bravery he might once have enjoy
ed Adversely taught him nothing.
The declaration he issued shortly
before the battle of La Hogue dis
persed all illusions. He utterly failed
to grasp the circumstances of the new
situation of affairs. He still threaten
ed with condign punishment all who
had accepted service under William
of Orange, whether in military or a
civil capacity. His unforgiving re-
sentiment doomed to death the minis
ters of justice who had taken any
part, however humble, in the convic-
ton or imprisonment of any Jacobite
conspirators. As Macaulay observes
"He pardoned nobody. He did,
indeed, promise that any offender who
was not in any of the categories of
prescription, and should by any emi-
nent service merit indulgence, should
have special pardon passed under
the great seal"

New Use for Old Rails.

A most useful method of transfer N.
Ing old and disused .colliery bridge
rails into sleepers has been devised by
Lancashire engineer. 1t is only
necessary to cut the old rails into
suitable lengths, punch two holes in
the web of the rail, into each of which
the tail piece of a special fastening clip
engages. and the sleeper is complete.
Both the cutting and the punching
can easily be done in position if de-
sired. These sleepers are likely to be
especially serviccablc and convenient
at collieries where rails have constant
ly to be taken up and moved about,
rs there are no nails to draw or wedges
to drive in taking the rails up or
laying them down again. and the in
sentor claims that they are more dur
able than wooden sleepers and that
their first cost will compare fayorably
with the low cost of the Globe.
