Great Excitement
Along Waterfront

Old waterfrOnters, wharf rats. boat
boys, sailors, crimps. Custom House
officers, pilots, captains, harbor mas
tiers and other habitues OF the water
front were treated to a genuine sur
prise this morning when they arrived
on the Intcr-Island wharf.
The rumor crept along the front but
was received with inCredulous ears
Those who went to investigate had to
acknowledge that the incredible had
happened-the Inter-Island office was
being cleaned. Mcssrs. Kelley, Smith
les, Harvey and the other inhabitants
of these palatial halls were busily en-
gagged in moving furniture. busting
scrubbing, cleaning and cleansing the
premises.
The hardest work. namely. the re-
moving OF encrusted layers of the
mother sod by the aid of pickaxes, was
performed by japanese.
The scene was pathetic one.
Frightened pet spiders, centipedes,
cockroaches. lizards, scorpions and
mice scurried over the walls and over
the floor fleeing from their happy
homes which had been handed down
to them undisturbed through countless
generations.
The office cat with sorrow beheld the
cleaning OF the safe in which she has
Uttered and successfully raised the nu-
merous brOods of kittens which have
supplied the COmpany's fleet with
ships cats for the past ten years The
sorrow and woe of old weathcrbeaten
waterfront loungers was pItiul to be-
hold and while the oldest inhabitants
in vain racked their memories to recol-
lect when the office had been cleaned
last, they were unanimous in condemn
ing the needless march of progress
which from day to day Is deprlving
them of the old and dear associations
of the past.
