Local Boots for Philippine

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 1.-THE little
steamer Albion, lying at Mission street
bulkhead, doesn't look very important,
but her departure next Monday viii be
a most significant event.
The Albion is going to Manila. She
lis the first of fleet of American ves-
sells that will engage in the inter-island
trade of the Philippines. The CONNER
cial conquest of the Asiatic possessions
of the United States is beginning, and
the Albion viii be the pioneer ship fly
ing the Stars and Stripes to reach for
the island trade. The business of trans
portation between ports of the Philip
pines has heretofore been largely in the
hands of the British. A few German
boats and Chinese junks helped to divide
the trade. The possibilities of inter-isl-
and traffic have attracted the attention
of local shipping men, and within a year
or two American steamers will probably
monopolize the business.
A combination has been formed, with
Captain Jarnesberg and Mark Davis as
the leading spirits, for the purpose of
capturing a share of the Philippine local
trade. The firm has the advantage of
government contracts and the Albion will
be used at first in carrying perishable
food supplies from the big transports in
Manila bay to the other island ports.

dispatched for Manila as rapidly as suit
able ones can be found. The company
will purchase a number of the small
steamers now plying between ports of

are thoroughly equipped they will be

The Albion has been transformed du-
ring the past month. A refrigerating
plant of four large engines has been in
stalled, cold air pipes arranged through
out her hold and electric lights put In.
She will carry nothing but pershable
freight and every square inch of space

purpose.

MAX RAN DOWN
WALLA WALLA
French Bark lowed Into San
Francisco in a Crippled
Condition.

SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. 6.-"An the
signal lights of the Max were brightly
burning, and we could see the steamer
for a long time before the collision. TIE
steamer tried to cross the bows of the
Max. but failed. The approach of the
steamer was reported to me and 1 was
on the poop deck and saw that all the
rules of the road were being observed
as far as my ship was concerned when
the collision happened. 1 could do moth
ing to prevent It. The Max was standing
on her course all the time the steamer
was approaching
That was the explanation of the col
lision given by the master of the French
bark that on the morning of January I'd
crashed into the side of the steamer
Walla Walla off Cape Mendocino and
sent her to the bottom with about forty
of her passengers and crew.
The Max was lowed into port late last
night and anchored off the Preside. .
The Max had not come out of the COL
iision unscathed Her jibboom, that was
made of hollow steel, was broken and
twisted, and the tip of it trailed in the
water on the port side of the vessel and
at about right angle with the line OIL
the hull Her stem was twisted, and
great gaping holes had been torn in her
bow. There was one almost at the wa
ter line and another a few feet above.
The French vessel left Glasgow 12o
days ago bound for this port. She was
n ballast and consigned to Frederick
Henry. She had an uneventful voyage
up to the time of the collision. The story
of her part of the disaster was told last
night after she had come to an anchor
by the men of the crew over the rail
of the craft, as she was not released
from quarantine. Captain Robert Benoist
is in command, but he had little to say
regarding the disaster, except that his
vessel was closely following the rules of
the road when the steamer came under
the bows of his bark. He declared that
the lights of the Max were properly
burning and displayed, and that the men
of his crew saw the steamer ii long time
before the collision.

Care of County cOnyIcts.

As a logical sequence to the manner in which state convicts are to be handled, the handling of county con victs will doubtless come before the next legislature. The way in which costs are piled up so that a sentence of thirty days. for example, Is extended to six months or even worse. needs attention. for 1t Is fast becoming a public scandal.
 But aside from the accumulation of costs for the benefit of officials, the care of leased county convicts by county commissioners will surely come up. The fact Is. the county convicts should be kept at home and at work upon the public roads. This is their proper work and place. In this way they will not be maltreated, nor will they get in the way of free labor.
 Whenever the feature of costs is eliminated there will be no trouble in securing proper treatment for county convicts, but at present strong infu- ences stand in the way of reform in that direction. The bottom trouble will be found to relate to the accumu- lation of costs in the first instance against all offenders of the misde- meanor class and then upon the pay ment of those costs through a lease. It is "costs" that enters into each case and controls it's disposition. It is merely matter of collecting costs, which are excessive in this state, bear ing heavily upon the friendless and poor who must serve in the coal mines not merely on account of the fine, which is comparatively light pen alty, but on account of all the costs that can be accumulated and charged against unfortunate prisoners. The subject is one that calls for consid- eration in order that the fair name of the state may not be tarnished.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1902-11-19
Christian Science Retreats.

Some recent notorious cases in which patients died without other care than Christian Science ministrations have led to an order issued by Mrs. Mary Baker G. Eddy to the effect that until the public becomes better acquainted with Christian Science the Scientists shall decline to doctor in fectious or contagious diseases" Mrs. Eddy is the ruler or high priest of the cult known to the world as Christian Science, and her order will be obeyed.
 There are troubles, however, in the way inside the fold. The scientists have long said that all disease is a myth born of distemper in the mind or heart or both. If one, they say, will believe he is not really i'll, i'll he will not continue to be, for disease is but mental or moral disorder Mrs. Eddy has, however, distinctly recog- nized the existence of infectious and contagious diseases. Just how this recognition is to be reconciled with the basic belief of the cult it is not necessary to inquire, but one true be- liever endeavors to put the blame on the community, for he says "healers" cannot prevent the spread of con tagious disease-smallpox, for exam ple-when the mind of a community believes it will spread. This is spread ing the blame very widely, to say the least. It is shifting the responsibility.
 Then, too, where is the line to be drawn between diseases? If the germ theory be correct, all diseases are in fectious or contagious. for the elusive germ may slip from one human frame to another, carrying the seeds of dis ease along. There is no place where the line can be drawn, inasmuch as every disease has it's own germ. Alto gether the new cult is in sea of trouble, resembling in that respect those other eminent faith curers, the Dowieites and Doukhobors.

cANEBRAKE BEARS.

From the Washington Times.
 In addition to mounting the President on peculiarly ancient and decayed piece of horsefesh, Mississippi seems to be trying to work off all her most undesir- able shelf-worn and second-handed bears on him under the probably correct con viction that he knows nothing of the canebrake variety, and is. therefore, to be easily fooled.
 Not yet has President Roosevelt come within rife shpt or knife thrust of bear worthy of his steel The first one scared up for his benefit had a sunstroke and behaved altogether In so idiotic and irresponsible a manner that the President refused to shoot him. The second was so wobbly on his legs and so weak In his wind and so generally depressed that he died of melancholia, or something of that sort before the President got look at him. And these are all the bears Missis- sippi has as yet trotted out for the enter tainment of her distinguished visitor.
 That's a fine brace of bruins for a strenuous nimrod like the President to hunt isn't 1t? 'Ferocious canebrake bears" indeedl One would just as well go shooting among the stuffed animals in a furriers as to waste powder and lead | on such specimens of ''big game" as have teen brought to light in the Mississippi swamps thus far.
 l Just think of the reckless waste of the | Presidents time. He has been in the canebrakes three or four days now. and by, this time his trusty hunting knife should be reeking with the gore of wild animals slain by him and the stock of his rifle numerously new-notched In token of these feats And not a reek nor a notch yeti
 It is incumbent upon the state of Mis- sissippi to explain and apologize. There's something crooked about her bears. They are not worth price of admission to the canebrakes that shelter them. They are ''phony" bears. and the President of the United States has been bunkoed by their propriertors.
 Mississippi should clear her skirts of the scandal She should fix the responsi- bility and punish whoever is responsible --even though it involve the gallant Bob Bobo of Bobo Station. the canebrake leatherstoclxing who went hunting and killed deer the day after he had can cer cut out of his eye.
