WANT A TEA INSPECTOR.

Points Out That Half the Tea
Comes Through That Port.
TACOMA Wash, May 6.-The Tacoma
chamber of commerce, aided by East
ern importers, is making a strong eff
fort to have the secretary of the treas
urv appoint a tea inspector for this
port. The recent law to prohibit the
importation of deleteriOus teas provides
for the appointment of sever inspect
ors only, one of which, to be stationed
at San Francisco, is assigned to the
Pacific coast. 1t is considered strange
in importing circles that no inspector
was assigned to Tacoma, since half the
tea imported into the United States
during the past two seasons entered
through this port. If no inspector is
stationed here, the tea transported by
the Northern Pacific and Nippon Yusen
kaishi lines must be held at tide water
eight or ten days until samples are for
warded to San Francisco or Chicago,
and the results of tests returned here.
This condition would greatly hamper
the importers, and railroads i'll for
warding tea to the Eastern markets on
quick time and if possible will be
avoided. 1t may be found necessary to
introduce a bill i'll congress providing
for an eighth Inspector, to be located
at Tacoma.

Good Reason For Apprehens on because
of Forest Fires Around Duluth.
DULUTH, May 6.--Very great appre-
hension is felt in this vicinity on ac-
count of the rapid progress of fires i'll
the timber. A heavy pail of smoke
overhangs Duluth and the head of the
lake. So thick is it that navigation Is
interfered with to some extent and the
foghorn is sounded. The fires appear
to be i'll every direction. The condi.
lions are ripe for a disastrous contiagra-
ton at a dozen points if the wind
should rise. There are fires along the
line of the St. Paul and Duluth, Du-
luth and Iron Range, Duluth, Mesaba
and Northern and Northern Pacific.
Fire reached two of the t~restles Of the
Duluth Iron Range, but was extin-
guished without much damage. 1t is
reported that much damage has already
been done to standing pine and camps
and camp outfits. There has been but
one shower since the snow went off.

First put ON the cover of canton fan
nel, then the tablecloth. The cloth
should hang over the table half a yard
at the narrowest point, which at the
corners, of course, gives deeper sweep.
The napkins should be a fun yard
square and should match the cloth in
daintiness and quality. The simplest
way to fold them is the best. The nap
kins on model table are folded in a
simple diamond shaped pocket, whose
opening points from the person seated
at the place. In the opening goes the
dinner roll. and across the top is laid
the name card.
In the center Of the table is placed the
low dish, silver or china or even wick
er, holding the floral decorations. These
vary with the season, taste and income.
A basket of ferns is very graceful and
effective, while the costlier roses are
very lovely. At opposite sides, fiankinp
the centerpieee, are the candeIabra.
These may be, in the case of the table

Prices of I.inens Go LIN.

When the tariff bill was about TO be
framed. the Republican leaders stated
that they desired to be moderate and to
avoid anything like excessive rates. MIR.
Aldrich, when introducing the amended
measure into the senate, claimed that
his rates were generally lower than
those Of the house bill. The linen
schedule, however, Is a notable one of
many exceptions. In 1t the senate rates
are higher than those of the house and
much higher than anything ever before
known. ~
Under the Mckinley bill of 1890 lin
ems were assessed 35 per cent, with a
few exceptions as high as so per cent
ad yalorem. Under the rates proposed
by the senate large proportion of the
goods in everyday use will be assessed
from 65 to SO per cent and In some
eases over 100 per cent The following
table shows some Of the changes In the
cost of medium and low grade linens:
Price per yard.
New duty Pres New
per cent ent. bill.
Damask tablecloth- 100 25c H1sc
Crash for roller towels. 521z eN
Coiored canvas for dress lin
ings. Observation-Disclosures. 90 SO 101S
Clothing linens. s..........-... 90 10 221z
Linen for butchers aprons. o5 1915 221s
The domestic manufacturers In whose
interests these changes are supposed to
be made have stated thnt they do not
deserve over so per cent duty on linen
goods, and one of the principal manu-
facturers of linen and cotton handker-
chiefs In America (of Acheson, Harden
q Co., Passaic, N. ]. states that he does
not desire any advance Of duty on his
goods.
The gross injustice Of these duties
can be appreciated when it is remem-
bered that, owing to climatic condi-
tions. good fiber fax cannot be grown
or linen manufactured successfully in
this country, and when it is further re-
membered that the kind of linen taxed
is the kind that is used by the poorest
Glasses, while much lower duty is put
on the finer grades.
