than Mr.. Abbey's delightful drawings illustrat-
ing Herricl'S poems. We shall not forget the
sweet lines of Herrick because we have seen the
charming pictures the artist has made to go with
them. and if we remember best the poem. we
shall not for that reason be blind to the beauty
of the drawings. We shall have two things that
please us where we had but one before. Further
then this. large part of the world of art is illus
tration. Pictures depicting religious and his
tOrcal subjects even the frescoes of the Vatican
are in one sense Illustrations. All the works of
art in the great galleries, in which the subjects
are drawn from mythology and legend are illus
tratiOns in the same way. The only essential
point of difference from what we call illustration
in our time is that they were made to accompany
a text. Half the subiects the artists have treated
from the old masters down, have been drawn
from literature in one form another: and it is
only in portraits and still life and in our modern
schools of landscape painting. and treatment of

CouPEyILLE. Oct. ESPECIAL. An that
remains of the ladies' dormitory of the
Puget sound academy is the stone founda-
ton and charred timbers. When the fire
was discovered. about 10 O'Clock Saturday
night, it had gained such Roadway that
nothing could be done to save it, there
being insufficient water and fire-ighting
apparatus. The fire undoubtedly origin
ated in the basement. presumably from a
lamp that had been left burning there
Nearly all the furniture of the building was
saved, but the kitchen range and dishes
could not be removed in time. Several
young ladies were rooming IN the build
ing, and they saved their effects Miss
Wheian, the music teacher lost 500 worth
ofmusic. clothing. ETC., insured. the policy
running until today. The loss amounts
to $4,000 The academy will not be incon-
venienced, because n has other buildings
that can be used. The burned building
was erected about eight years ago by the
late DIR. Highwarden for sanitarium, but
was purchased by the WILDLY island peo-
pie and presented to the Puget sound
academy as their contribution toward the
school 1t was one of the most prominent
buildings IN the town.

John C. Macintosh. the anti Tiliicum of
Tacoma, who announced his own appoint
ment as special agent of the interior de-
partment in the Posr-IxTELLiGEScER yes
terday morning was cock-of-the-walk yes
terday. and few disputed his claim.
Among the few. however. is Capt William
ID. 0'Toole, register of the local land Office.
The captain expressed himself to PosT-
INTELLIGENCE reporter yesterday 10
the following effect: II have
read Mr.. MacIntosh's statement made
in Tacoma yesterday and / have consid-
cred IL we'll. have always thought that
he is without any real authority from the
secretary. and still think so. kilograms
from Commissioner Lamereaux deny
that the appointment has been made or
that it was ever the intention of any one
to make it. / disbelieve his story, because
there Is no such Office iii the service as he
Claims to have been appointed to fill, and
also because in the present state of the
United States treasury j doubt if such an
office. which is NOT needed. would be GRE
ated, with such high salary attached to
1t. Every day We receive instructions at
this office begging us TO curtail expenses,
and We are now running with a smaller
force than ever before. MacIntosh's claim
is unreasonable
Marsh Atkisson, of Mckenzie, Tenn,
who is guest al the Grand, has recently
been appointed special agent of the
United States land department and as
signed to duty in Washington with head
quarters at Seattle. Il have just come
from Washington City," said he, land
while there was treated very courteously
by the land Office officials. From the ma
ture of the conversations / mad with them
gathered that Mr.. Burke and myself are
the only special agents of the department
assigned to duty in this territory, and I
am inclined TO doubt that Mr.. Macintosh
Is an inspector or special agent of the de-
partment. Our work is not altogether to
detect fraudulent and fictitious claims.
but 1t is to protect the government from
the operations of the alleged homestead
settlers, who only take up claim for the
purpose of being able to cut the timber
from the land, which is It's most valuable
product
Capt. O'Toole has received no official
information in regard to the moving of the
Olympia land Office to Seattle.

SPRECKLE'SNEWL LINE
Steamers to Ply Between the
Sound and Australia
AND COMPETE IN COAST TRADE,
Contract Of GoodaIi. Perkins d Co.
with Oregon Improvement Conn
pany 90 Expire I'm February.

Recent reports 10 the effect that Claus
Spreckeis was about 20 establish line OF
steamships between Puget sound and Aus
trsiia to compete with the new Canadian
Pacific line are being confirmed by bits OF
information secured from day to day. II
II now known that William Webster, OF
Vancouver, b. C.. has been appointed gem
eral freight and passenger agent for Brit
ish Columbia and Puget sound OF the
Oceanic Steamship Company. Mr. Web
ster was formerly manager of the Union
Steamship Company.
The Oceanic is the Spreckels company,
and owns the steamships Mariposs. Ala
media. Zealandia. Australia and others. be-
sides q line of sailing ships running be-
tween San Francisco and the Hawaiian
islands. and also q feet of towboats in San
Francisco harbor. The steamships named,
or some of them. already ply between San
Francisco and Australia. and the company
Is amply equipped to run line to Puget
sound and British Columbia That the
new Canadian Pacific line has cut into the
San Francisco business from Australia
is put forward as one of the reasons why
Spreckeis viii set up an opposition bust
ness. As the steamers would call at
Honolulu the new line would greatly in
crease the direct connections of the Sound
country and the Hawaiian islands.
The establishment of this new line opens
up an interesting question with regard to
the Pacific Coast Steamship Company. It
, Is well known that GoodalI. Perkins Il
Co.. general agents of the Pacific Coast
Company. are large owners in the Oceanic
Company. and that their present contract
with the Oregon Improvement Company
will expire next February. Ever since the
Oregon improvement Company bought
out Goodall. Nelson & Co. ten years ago
il has virtually owned the Pacific Coast
Steamship Company, including all the
steamers in that company's business. but
has carried en- its steamship business
through Goodall, Perkins d Co. as gen.
eral agents. under contract now nearly
expired. Several reasons have been adj
vanced TO show that this contract would
not be renewed. and it is limited by those
who pretend to know that Goodall, Per-
kins Il Co. will. after their present con-
tract expires. devote themselves to the
Oceanic Steamship Company, which will
run boats to these waters both from San
Francisco In competition with the Pacific
Coast Company and from Australia and
Honolulu in competition with the Cana
dian Pacific Company.

very few minutes Of each other and less
number of blocks apart. gate the depart
ment couple of lively runs yesterday
morning at an early hour. At
2:t5 box s. at Third and Jackson, rang
and the companies from the downtown
districts promptly responded. The blaze
was found TO be in the second story
OF the building on Jackson street,
between Third and Fourth, formerly
occupied by the Minnehaha saloon.
1t was soon extinguished. and then an in
vestigation revealed the usual strong
smell of coal oil pervading sill of the many
chapel row recently. The only room in
the house occupied was by French
woman named Carmen, who said that she
had heard some one in the back rooms
just before the fire started. A large can of
coal oil stood in a room near by.
The whole upper story of the
building was Quilted, and the
Salvation Army barracks were also
scorched some. The loss is about 500 and
will fall upon the Great Northern Railway
Company, which owns all of the row.
There was no insurance.
The second FIRE broke out at loo in a
back room of the Cosmopolitan lodging
house, at ia Main street, owned by David
Low. Old clothes, matches and mice were
responsible. There was no loss but that OF
temper by the weary iiremen who had
barely returned to their houses when the
alarm came in from box No. AZ.

dence of forgery in the auditors Office
Prosecuting Attorney Jennings aud his
assistant. A. r. Coleman, reported 10 the
county commissioners that the evidence
against n. w. 0Rear, whom C. NJ.
Sweeney charged with the crime, was in
sufficient to warrant conviction.
Sweeney. in his sworn confession, is I'M
able TO identify any particular county
warrant as having been forged by O'Rear,
saying that there were so many that he
could not remember or identify any par
ticular one. The commissioners declined
to accept the opinion OF the attorney.
The county commissioners and Prosecu-
ting Attorney Jennings united In petit
ton tonight TO Judge Ballinger, asking
that grand jury be impaneled to inquire
into the irregularities of the auditors Of
flee and the charges of forgery alleged to
have been committed by n. w. 0'Rear,
editor OF the Leader. The petition alleges
that certain persons presumed cognizant
of the criminal acts committed by 0'Rear
and others refuse to give testimony to the
commissioners. Expert Accountan
Young has reported his findings to tibet
commissioners. which, together with
Sweeney's confession, is damaging in
