the worst class seldom get as far as
st. Paul. They remain in the slurns
of the big cities further east, where
they help to swell the list of criminals.
Germany during the past year contrib
uted only 10000 of the $4,000 who
came over, and England only. about
75,000.f Most of those German and
English Immigrants wentste theGana-
dian Northwest territory, but many
Germans passed through St9s.Paul on.
their way west. These represent an
excellent class of immi grants, for they
come to America with a sincere desire
to better their condition. The Ital-
Russians as rule represent the
worst class, for they are generally the
dregs of their own, country. e..z ~ y - ~
The immigran woman always carries
in her own hands the article she has
valued most in her own home, and that
is why it is not an unusual thing to
see some second -hand man comforting,
through an interpreter, if they happen
to be not of his own nationality, with
a little group Of Immigrants. Brass
candlesticks. bits of very fine, if very
dirty handmade lace, even a .samovar
has been picked by the ST. Paul sec
ond-hand man in this way. But for
eigners are shreWd bargainers, and
when sentiment also influences the
bargaining, the second hand man does
not always get the best of 1t. And
sometimes sentiment triumphs over
thrift and the immigrant woman con-
tinues her journey with her precious
package clasped close to her heart.

Biz River Excursion Boat Tells It's
Troubles to Frivolous Little Launch

Last night, however, I was in a par
ticularly vicious mood and l made up
my mind that I'd give that barge e.
miserable time of it. 1 know. of course,
that we are always perfectly safe, for
my men are careful fellows, and I
know all about my working gear, any
how. But the barge is Just a hanger
on and knows nothing. SO last night
all the awful stories 1 could think Of
about river accidents l told her. and
by the time we were near Fort Shell
ing she didn't know whether she was
af1oat or aground. I didn't go too far,
of course, for l have a sense of re-
sponsibility and l would never forgive
myself if l did not bring an excursion
crowd back safe and sound. even if I
do despise them"
'They say you're the most reliable
boat on the river" ventured the little
launch.
DO they. indeed, my dear?" asked
her big neighbor in tones of gratified
vanity. "Well. if that's true" he said
clumsily but sincerely. then you're
the prettiest and the trimmest."
Goodness me- how you fatter," MUIR
INJURED the smaller craft lelightediy.
And did the barge meet with an accl-
dent?"
well, she tossed and twisted and
groaned and complained and finally, on
ing under the Wabasha street bridge,
couldn't resist giving her little shove.
1t was the tiniest little shove, sEd IL
her nerves had been in good condition
it wouldn't have hurt her a bit. But
as it was, it Jared one Of her supports
and We left her, after unloading our
crowd, on the other side of the river
to be repaired. I'm trusting her fright
will do her good and show her her
proper place"
You did" But what the launch
intended to say the excursion boat did
not learn, for her owner and a party
of his friends had boarded her fer an
early morning cruise on the river. She
fiuttered her blue pennant as she
puffed past the excursion boat and he
gurgled farewell.
"a tidy little piece" he grunted, as
he prepared for another nap.
Hi, brass band, dc you think Tommy
Liptons going to lift the cup?" called
a rakish looking st. Louis steamer
who was moored about half block
further down.
Who's Tommy Upton and what's
the cup?" asked the excursion beat,
divided between a desire to tell the St
Louis steamer what he thought of him
and to. learn the news.
'sWhy, Tommp Upton is rich guy
that's come over with boat. This
boat is going TO race one or our own
boats on the ocean for a cup that we've
had for years and which is as high as
a mans head, am told" explained the
steamer condescendingly
Race on an ocean! Fancy that, will
you," grunted the excursion boat. Why
in thunder don't they come out here
to the Mississippi river where they'd
have lots of room. I've seen races in
my day!" But the rakish st. Louis
cfn WASN'T ma wing ottantfOn and
the excursion boat soon fell fast asleep.

PAJAMAS AND. NIGHTIES
AT WAR m THE NAVY
Controversy Raging Which MAJ Equal
the Sampson schiey Contention.

WASHINGTON ID. c., Aug. 10. -
The proposed supplementing of night
shirts by pajamas has precipitated a
discussion in naval circles that may
last as long and attract nearly as much
attention as the Sampson Schley con-
troversy. Already two strong contend
ing forces have become arrayed against
each other. Those fn-favor of the pro-
prosed innovation have styled them
selves the "Pajamar Brigade" and the
opponents who cling to the old-time
garment with a loyalty based largely
on sentiment and tradition are dubbed
"Nighties."
Just now the "Nightfes" have the
better of it, but the members of the
brigade declare that when Secretary
Moody and Rear Admiral Taylor return
the potency of the arguments in favor
of the change will undoubtedly con-
vince them of the. injustice of the
"Nighties' cause.
In the mail of Rear Admiral Taylor
came today a radiant sample pair of
pajamas from a prominent mercantile
firm, which offered to manufacture
jackies' pajamas after a special pat
tern and design at price of $1.25 a
pair. The pajamas have been placed on
file pending the real admirals return
from his vacation next month. Secre-
tary Moody is also away, and the mat
ter will not be decided until September,
when both of these officials return to
Washington and can give it their care
full attention.
Efforts will be made by the active
'Pajama Brigade osobtain a hearing
before the secretary. The brigade" as
serts that in the first place the new
garment is far more comfortable, up
to-date and serviceabIe than the night
shirt The officers discarded night
shirts for pajamas, and the men see no
reason why they Should not keep up
the pace set by their Fsuperiors. They
call attention to the fact that pajamas
are in use in several foreign navies and
have proved satisfactory.
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1903-08-23

To the flustered woman, who pauses
in front of one of the gates at the
union station and. after long and
nervous search. hands the official a
card-case instead of the ticket he is
waiting to punch, that official appears
to be a very hard-hearted man. Being
a mere man he cannot know that tick
cts have an .aggravating way of con-
cealing themselves in Woman'S
purse, and the fact that the official in
Sists on the ticket when the woman
has just sixty seconds to catch her
train, which is putting away just out
side, is sufficient proof in her mind
that he is entirely without heart.
But to the immigrants Who come
into st. Paul, especially to the woman
with several small children, who has
come out to join her husband, or to the
timid girl, who is travelling alone to
some far Western town to meet her
future husband, such an official is not
hard-hearted though he may seem i'm
posing. To be swept off train into
a great, noisy room before one has
hardly had a chance to catch ones
breath is confusing enough, even to
the American woman who has Travelled
little, but to the weary and hdkneSick
immigrant it is an experience almost
appalling.
For the fiscal year which ended June
~ last, % 100 immigrants came TO the
United States. They came chiefly
from the slums of cities where the i'm
migration promoters, employed by
transportation companies. induced
them to leave their own country. Of
this number, 100000 came from Eu-
rope, and nearly 100000 of these were
Italians, Austro -Hungarians and Rus
slams. How many of these passed
through ST. Paul it is impossible to
state, for it seems to be no ones bust
ness in the city to keep track of the
passage of these foreigners. But this
much is known: More immigrants
passed through the city in the months
of May, June and July than during any
other months. and during those months
of this year it is estimated that the
daily average was 800. Stun jewellers
in any land are seldom self-reliant,
even in their own country. And the
fact that immigrants are ignorant of
the tongue spoken all around them
adds to the mental confusion that
strange sights cause, so that they are
especially timid and fearful when they
find themselves in the station of some
hig city
The woman who fumbles for her
ticket and finally hands the official at
the gate visiting card worries be-
cause that official is apt to think she
is not accustomed to travelling. But
