Have fragrant blossoms. Many others are fragrant only when crushed.
 There is one which is fragrant in bloom and fragrant also when its rpened fruit is crushed and made into a drink. AWe know it as coffee.
 To enjoy the most delicious fra grance of coffee in its highest state of perfection you should buy what you are sure is coffee, pure and simple, without any adulteration.
 Chase & Sanborn's Coffee is a pure coffee. What is more, it is the best coffee that can be raised by experienced planters. Furthermore every bean is selected and the same care is maintained in roasting and packing, until it reaches the con sumers' hands.
 Because it is pure it is healthful and the price at which it sells is SO little in advance of cheaper grades that one stops and wonders why any one should not always have Chase & Sanbom's Seal Brand Coffee, or any one of their high grade brands which come in parch- ment lined colored bags.

The Cottage City has come and gone and the rate war is still being waged by the transportation companies. The association of steamship men met in Seattle Friday morning and continued in uninterrupted conference until near y 0 o'clock. Adjournment was then taken until 8 o'clock in the evening On reassembling after dinner the dis cussion was resumed and no conclusion was reachedup 10 the time the steamer sailed. which was about IT o'clock. The agents of the interested companies in this city received no instructions a, to whether there was any prospect oi a settlement being reached In fact they got no advices or directions.
 lt is quite certain the bone of con tention is that the Pacific Coast Steam. ship Company is demanding that tho Washington & Alaska Steamship Com. pany cease to have its boats call al Vancouver and will accept no other solution of the vexed problem. This comes from source which is reliable and is as authentic as it could be with. out being directly from one of those participating in the conference.
 The failure of the companies below Co send any news as to how the con Fict is progressing 10 their agents here is capable of several constructions. II may mean that an adjustment was neat at hand and that nothing would De SenI up here until it was effected. and then the agents will be simply notified oi th, results. It may also mean that the prospects of the settlement are remote and that the companies deemed it best not to inform the representatives here and to leave them untrammelled tc make the most of q bad situation. Or it it may mean that no material chang, has occurred and all these meetings are merely for the purpose of manuev ring to get some advantageous post. ton.
 The latter is probably the correct in

The banquet given at the Y. NJ. (. A. lst night was a feast Of good things nd one at which there was a stead. .ow of wit and an abundance oi 'n. tructive toaSts. The gymnasium was converted into a banquet hall and three arge tables with covers for sixty ookcd temptingly arranged for the ex- Icctant guests lt was just about iC o'clock when the association orchestra composed of McsSrS. Wall. Stokes. ;hoemake and Swadlng, and Miss flosSie Root opened the evening ieS ivities with a well merited selection while the guests gathered around ready or the spread. Being seated. eight oi Skagway's prettiest misses entered the nall with servers on which was the irSt course. From then on through he seven courses there was a clatter lf merry tongues and a clattre of dish .s both giving evidence Of the good lime being had. During the banquet music was furnished by the orchestra m an excellent manner.
 For an hour the delicate viandS held iull sway. Then the literary part Of the banquet commenced.
 Dr. NJ. F. Hall acted as toastmaster. He was a good one and sat the bah of humor a rolling in manner tha, was catching. He dwelt briefly on the occasion explaining the why and wherefore and then introduced Rev. c. s. Clevinger. who responded 10 the toast Good Diggings" The speaker told new story and deitly applied l, to the occasion then driited into treasured diggings. He said that out side of the literal meaning of good dig gings as was meant in the northern country, there were diggings far better more valuable and richer than could be found in earthly districts. He referred to the spiritual diggings ana the enc of all. the final clean up of life. Witt a word on the work of the association and its attainments he brought an in teresting toast to an end amidst ap plause.
 The toastmaster introduced E. A Friend. who had for a tost "Checha cos" Mr. Friend with the remarl that a better subject for the Subjec could not have been selected and witl story relating to an experience of hi as a chechaco plunged immediately in to the derivation of the-word and eN plained its different evolutions from th' time the Pilgrims landed as "new com CTS" on Plymouth Rock, to the presen

depreciation. One of the agents in dis cussing the matter last evening said; "I do not believe any material head way has been made, for fl such were the case some of us at least would have been advised If an agreement were near at hand we would have been nDti- fed SO as to protect our companies on south bound passengers at the ear Hest opportunity. lt seems to me also if the situation is hopeless. we at thl, end would have been instructed to cut the rate below any which had yet been quoted-so low in fact that the com panics would loose money and then the issue would be forced and then a re- suit satisfactory to the majority reach' ed speedily.
 The present figures are what We call living ratcs-the companies can make expenses at them-and with the in' creased travel in sight can keep things going this way all summer. When lt is decided to fight in earnest you r'ill see rates go down SO that the operators loose money and then it will be T ques- ton of the one which can hold out the longest"
 The situation today is much the same as it was previous 10 the arrival oi the Cottage City. except news that the companies are still trying to get to- Eether was received. Nothing furthe, will be known until the Victorian ar
 ives. which will be this evening or
 friday forenoon. Unless the associa-
 on came to a conclusion at the night
 ession it is improbable that anything of importance will come then. for meet ings have been held only one, a week.
 The Cottage City took passengers at the rates established in the first few days of the war-SIo first-class and s second-class. These prices will be held to until a change is reported from be low. The Farallon, which IS expect ed to sail some time today will make the same rate.

 Then followed a selection by the male quartet composed of MesSrs R. G. and W. G. Blanchard. j. Forrest and K. NJ. Taylor. The four gentlemen'5 voices blended most harmoniously and SO well did they do their part that nothing but an encore would satisfy the delighted listeners.
 Dr. Hall then in able remarks intro duced Judge C. A. Sehlbrede, whom he called Y. NJ. (.

He related several instances of sour loughism and made a- pleasing trib ute to the Y. M (. A. work in Skag' way.
