Buy Government Transports

The Hill-Morgan combination is rapid
ly acquiring great fleet of ocean car
riers for the Oriental as well as the
coast trade. In addition to the steamers
already bought of Dodwen & Co. the
United States transports soon to be put
on the market by the Government will
be acquired. The whole of this great
fleet will be operated in connection with
the Northern Pacific and Great Northern
railroads.
The official announcement of the pur-
chase of Dodwell & Co.'S Oriental liners
Tacoma, Olympia and Victoria and their
coast steamship City of Seattle, now in
the Northeastern Alaska trade, was
made today. Possession of the City of
Seattle will be given on Monday and the
Oriental ships will be turned over as fast
as they arrive in port.
The consideration paid for these ships
is Sl,ooo,s00, which leaves about $4,000
as the price of the City of Seattle, the
Oriental liners being put in at fair
valuation. The City of Seattle, pur-
chased by the Northern Pacific, it is
said, is to be used as nucleus of a line
that will control Alaska rates and bust

Got IN Way of Coptic.


The little island schooners Ada and
Blanche and Ella took up much harbor
room yesterday in making their way
out to sea. For few minutes the Ada
was perilously close to the Coptic. which
was heading to sea. While the liner was
outside the channel the Blanche and Ell
la swung lazily down the. harbor. Off
Wilder's wharf she encountered d south
erly breeze which filed her sails the
wrong way. The captain did not attempt
to tack or wear ship and the schooner
began drifting over toward naval row.
One of Young's launches came by at
that moment and offered to tow the
schooner out. Before the vessel had
drifted any distance the little launch had
passed a line to the Blanche and Ella,
and in a short time had her moving
steadily out. She passed close by the
Coptc in the middle of the channel
Shortly afterward the Ada came into
tie barber, lacking and wearing. After
much maneuvring the captain got
abreast of the channel directly in the
path of the Coptic and near the tug
Fearless which was waiting to assist
the liner. The Ada was in stays some
time and the Coptic veered OFF toward
the Channel wharf. The Ada's boom
sail was lowered and the vessel wore
away and back into the harbor again,
getting out of the way of the Coptic and
giving that vessel much needed sea
room. The Ada finally worked out of
the channel safely and without further
incident

Sierra Needed More Firemen.

The sailing of the Sierra was DELAYED
yesterday morning more than an hour
in order that the fire crew could be aug
mented by new men from Honolulu
When the Sierra left San Francisco she
had to pick up lot of firemen at the
last moment, supplied from the Risdon
Iron Works. The strike prevailing there
at the time of the departure of the yes
sci had tendency to delay the vessel
but she got away almost on schedule
time. A similar difficulty was expert
enced here in much milder form, but
after securing six more men, the trouble
was overcome.

Three days had passed since our ad-

had heard no more about the broken

My father bought me rough little

a paternal blessing and a not too heavy

And thus we parted.
On the third day after this Alec join
ed me at York and announced THAT his
uncle, who was his guardian. had given
him leave to accompany me. So to
Cambridge we went, and the paternal
authority was not defed.
In the end, however, it made little
difference, because, though Alec made
good use of his opportunities for ac-
curing knowledge, did nothing but
amuse myself in the town, with the re-
suit that by a prolonged course of riot
ing and idleness made Glare Hall too
hot to hold me.

months when the inconvenient atten-

and as / had to go Alec said he would
not stay either, so one night we fed,

eluded them, however, by swimming

left open to us. Fortunately, it was
the one we both most wished to fol-
low.
In low rooted tavern parlor in Wap-
ping we entered into conversation with
gnarled old shipmaster, whom we
found drinking strong ale with toast
in it and crunching raw onions as
though they were aromatic sweet
meats. To him we confided our wish.
Want to go to sea, eh?' he growled.
well, it's dogs life at first and not
much better after; rancid salt pork to
eat, and not a savory morsel like this

hard work, hard knocks and scurvy;
that's what you'll get. If you're extra
strong, you may stand it; If not, better

And so he went Numbering on. B4
finally, as he was short handed, n
agreed to take us as ordinary SEAM

On that very night we were entesee4

DECISION TO BE
REACHED TODAY
Patronesses Chosen From Social
Set twenty-five Firms
Join.

AT meeting Of the Boys Brigade,
advertising tourney committees, ito be
held today, the question of holding the
affair in the Opera House instead OF
the Drillshed will be considered Some
have deemed it wise plan in that the
sale of the seats will compensate for
the loss of space to advertisers who
contemplated using the company rooms
in the armory, and the fact that the
from the class of people who
will attend in the Opera House
than at the Drillshed. There are con-
veniences to be considered in connec-
ton with the Opera House that will
not be found in the Drillshed, and the
stage accessories Of the Opera House
are not to be found in the armory.
The committee was out yesterday and
was able to get about twenty five
names of firms to the tourney list,
each paying the price OF $25 for the
privilege of competing on the stage.
So far, about thirty firms have been
approached, and few of those seen
have failed to put down their names.
The firms take a business view of the
tourney, and this is more to them than
the charity end. The interest is also
increasing, because the ladies are tax
