ALONG THE COAST.
Items OF General Interest Cleaned
From tho Thriving Pacific
States.
Filipiuo Crew.

Something of interest at this particu-
lar time is the fact that the sailors and
coal passers on the Monmouthshire,
which has recently arrived in Portland,
Or, are Filipinos. On shipboard
they are known as Manila men. and
regarded as good sailors as ever went
before a mast. They are not unlike
the Mongolians, and in fact bear SO
much resemblance to them that one
not otherwise informed would put
them down for queueless sons of the
Flowery Kingdom or subjects OF the
Island Empire. Some of them have
been with the steamer for long time,
and understand English fairly we'll,
besides being we'll versed in Spanish.
They are fully coenizant Of the fact
that war is now raging between their
countrymen and the United States, and
believe Aguinaldo undoubtedly a good
man," to use the exact words of one OF
them. Another said it was no telling
where the fight will end or who will
get the upper hand. In speaking Of the
trouble. they are little conservative.
which is not at all surprising, con-
sidering the fact that they are strangers
in a strange land and under particu-
larly strange circumstances. Although
much like the Mongolians in appear
ance the two people differ much in
habits and general makeup. Ruled by
a firm hand. yet not too severe, the
Filipinos prove good workmen, always
willing to perform their share of the
duties assigned them, and in case of
trouble they can always be relied upon
to uphold the side of their superior.

through years of experience.

Beef Market on the Yukon.

The great beef trust which sold meat
at Dawson for ST.. so per pound last
year is now almost forgotten and prices
are about as low as they are in the
states. The poorest beef sells at 10
cents and the best at 25 cents per
pound to the quarter. One thing that
has forced down the prices is the order
that all beef that is not kept in refrig-
orators by May l will be condemned
and must be thrown away. There are
no refrigerators at Dawson, and none
in course of construction, so that the
prices will probably 60 still lower.

RESULT OF INJURY.
CHARLES MCCORMICK BEFORE AN
INSANITY COMMISSION.

Charles Mccormick, whose occupation
is that of a miner, was before a commas
sion on insanity in department NO. l OF
the district court between 4 and 5 O'Clock
yesterday afternoon, but he was not
pronounced insane. His case was taken
under advisement. While the investiga~
ton was being made Mccormick APP
peared to be as rational as anyone in
this mans town." as he expressed it,
and roasted the officials who restrained
him of his liberty.
Morris Mccormick, a brother Of the al
legged crazy man, testified to matters
concerning the family of the prisoner and
himself, and added that the prisoner had
about So, 5000 worth of property; that he
became ill on the 10Th of February and
began talking about a big block he in
tended to buy. About 6 o'clock the next
morning he had a spasm which lasted ~
minutes. 1t was followed by one every
hour until 4 o'clock in the afternoon.
He was not a drinking man. About
three months ago Charles a a rib
broken, and since that time he had not
been altogether right in his mind.
McCormick's sister gave similar tes-
timony, and his wife told her story in
the judges chambers, as she did not
wish to have her husband see her. She
shed tears and asked that he be re-
turned to her.
The prisoner testified in his own be-
half. When asked if he knew why he
was in the court room he answered:
II suppose you are trying to find out
whether I am insane, but | guess you'll
discover that l am as sane as any man
in this mans town. Wait until 1 get out
and I'll make some people think I am
sane"
Mccormick was taken into custody in
the eastern part of the city a few days
ago. He had to be held down by two
or three men until the arrival of officers.

ROAD HOUSE DESTROYED,

The Midway o house, located about
halfway between the city and the Nine
Mile house was destroyed by fire about .
o'clock this morning. The building was a
frame structure and lasted probably thir-
ty minutes after the fire was discovered.
It was owned and was being conducted
by Mrs. Willie Riley. The loss is esti-
mated at about s., 1000.
individuals residing in the neighbour
hood of the road house made an unsuc-
cessful attempt to save the place. After
a few minutes work, it was apparent
that nothing could be lone to put out the
fire, and efforts were directed towards re-
moving the contents of the building.
A South Butte hot tomale man, saw
the reflection from the fire, and thinking
it was local became alarmed and turned
in a call from box a, causing the de-
partment a run to that point for nothing.

SOCIETY DOING GOOD WORK

The ladies of the Associated Charities
held an important meeting yesterday
afternoon. The meeting was held in the
associations room, in the public library
building, and was quite generally at
tended. The articles of Incorporation
were discussed and ratified, the associa-
ton thus placing itself in a position to
avail itself of the $40, 900 donation of
Senator-elect w. A.. Clark to the
Paul Clark Home fund, which action
probably made this the most important
session the association has held since it's
organization.
The ladies were very enthusiastic. Mrs.
John Noyes, ST., vice president Of the
association, presided, and announced that
the final action of the trustees, towards
Incorporating, had been taken. On mo-
ton, the work of the trustees was APP
proved by unanimous vote.
The report of the treasurer showed the
associations finances to be in a very
healthy condition.. The receipts for Feb
ruary, including Mr.. Clark's donation of
$40, 900, which has not heretofore been
listed in the associations assets, were
$40, 292. 25. Aside from Mr.. Clark's con-
tribution, the receipts We're: Donations,
500; dues collected, $22.2 5. The eXpendi-
lures for the mont were $247.5 80.
During the month of February the as
ISOLATION distributed 31A tons of coal, as
shown by the report of the secretary; IL
needy persons were furnished with
transportation; employment was found
for two; 700 meals were served in tbs as
sOciation's sou kitchen; in $50 ca SEES
soup was sent out to needy families;
three persons were cared for at the home
and So families were aided.
Dick Sutton, manage of the Union
Family theater offered to give a benefit,
the entire proceeds of which shoul go
to the association. The offer was ac-
cepted, and arrangements for the benefit
will be made later, on account of the
immense amount of work which the as
ISOLATION has on hand.
The association is in need of %cast-off
clothing. The extremely cold weather
has made inroads on the supply, which
is about exhausted. The need is urgent
and the officers of the society request
persons who have clothing of any de-
scription, that is serviceable, will confer
a favor on the association and assist
them in a good work by leaving it at No.
sos Nevada avenue.
