WANT KING
ARRESTED

SEATTLE, Jan. las result of the
Butler hotel strike here three members
of the Western Central Labor Union, rep
resenting themselves as a committee from
that organization, appeared before Prose
cutting Attorney w. T. Scott and
asked for a warrant for the arrest of
William G.. King, manager of the Butler
hotel, on charge of selling liquor on
Sunday.
Mr.. Scott listened to their grievance and
then informed them that he could not is
sue the complaint on which to base a
warrant, for the reason that he believed
the prosecution could be shown to be
malicious. In any event, he contended, on
the same day the committee complained of
it was known to him, as to them, that
probably all the saloons in Seattle were
open, and that it would not do for him
to make fish Of one and flesh of another.
The spokesman of the party said his
name was Cottrell, but the other two did
not reveal their identity, and all left the
office, promising to return again after
reporting to the union.
Mr.. Scott, when seen after the men had
left his Office said he must decline to dis
cuss the matter, but did admit that the
men called ON him, and that he refused
to give them a warrant for the arrest of
Mr.. King

AMERICAN ACTRESS
REFUSED A PRINCE

BERLIN, Jan. 1.-The love affairs of
Crown Prince Frederick Wilhelm are ex-
pected to sooner or later lead him into a
morganatic marriage, and to prevent such
a possibility his imperial father has sent
him abroad.
The latest flame of the heir-apparent
of the German throne is Geraldine Farrar,
prima donna of the Berlin royal opera
company, which the kaiser has himself
conducted recently, to revive the interest
in the works Of Gluck.
Since she came to this city the beau.
tiful American girl has become great
favorite and the --diser has advanced her
rapidly in recognition of her talent. The
crown prince has been in love with her
for some time and she gained the admira-
ton and respect of Berlin society by re
fusing to meet him last winter after he
had made an avowal of his passion.
Lately the young man returned to the
object of his affections and asked her to
marry him and become crown princess Of
the German empire. This she refused to
do, and when the kaiser learned of the
affair he promptly shipped his eldest son
out of the country to recover his health.

NEW YEARS DAY
At WASHINGTON

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. Accord
ing to custom President Roosevelt and his
family received at the White House today
Crowds of distinguished visitors took the
opportunity of calling on the nations chief
executive. The members of the diplo-
matte corps attended in full regalia. Co
lombia was not represented, Minister Her
ran pleading illness. General Reyes asked
to be excused as he was filling no social
engagements.
Many veterans of the wars in which the
United States has taken part were re-
ceived by the president at 1890 o'clock.
There were several other public recep-
tions at the capital today. A buffet din
ner was given at the Hay residence to the
members of the diplomatic corps, but no
reception was held there. Secretary Hay
did not appear, as he is recovering from
his recent illness. Mrs. Hay acted as

GRAND BALL At
INSANE ASYLUM

Probably the most unique ball held in
this part of the country New Years eve
was that held last night at Steilacoom for
the inmates of the asylum. All of the
harmless men and women at the institu-
ton who wished attended, and from all re-
ports the affair was a complete success.
One lady was little naughty in her
manner, and as her hallucination was that
she was Queen of Ireland her grandeur
was overlooked. No little inconvenience
was given the gentlemen by her, as she
always insisted on consulting her court be-
fore dancing.
A peculiar rule of the asylum that was
strictly enforced last night was that no
two patients be allowed to dance together
This arrangement has the effect of main
tanning order and while it is enforced there
is no trouble encountered in handling the
patients. The dance was well attended

CAMPBELL
VS. FAWCETT
Contest on for the Mayoralty
Nomination

There is a good deal of speculation in
local political circles over the lineup of
candidates for the mayoralty nomination
in the approaching spring conventions.
Two things are certain.
The first is that Mayor Louis ID. camp
bell will again be brought forward by
his friends as candidate for the repuvll-
can nomination.
The second is that Angelo V. Fawcett
win contest for this nomination.
Mr. Fawcett headed the Democratic
Populist city ticket four years ago. He
was defeated by Mayor Campbell, who had
lis majority.
Two years ago Faweett dropped out
of the race and the Democratic candi-
date, Frank B. Cole, was defeated by the
present mayor with majority of some
thing over 900
This year Mr. Fawcett will ask the
Republicans to nominate him and will
make his fight against Mayor Campbell in
the convention.
There is considerable talk of opposition
to Campbell coming from the element in
the Republican party which favors a wide
open policy. On the other hand, it is as
serted that the supporters of the present
administration will vigorously combat any
attempt to secure a return to the tolera-
ton OF gambling and other evils.
So far the Democrats are not saying
much about municipal matters. Before
bringing out a candidate they viii measure
the comparative strength of Mayor Camp
bell and Mr.. Faweett
In regard to his candidacy Mr.. Fawcett
said: Eyes, | am a candidate for the Of
fee of mayor of this city, and will go
into the republican convention with that
object in view"

REMEMBERED
THEIR BOSS

The New Year came in with a some
what pleasant experience for Manager
John I. Donnelly of the Hotel Donnelly
When he reached the office this morning
he found on his desk an elegant cut glass
wine set Accompanying it was a card

BURGLARS ROB
BARBER SHOP

Thieves attempted to force their way
into Simons' pawnshop at l2l5 Pacific ave-
nue. early yesterday morning by breaking
the transom in the rear of the building.
The iron bars just inside prevented ingress
that way. The door, which is a heavy
one lined with sheet iron, was tried, but
the thieves gave that up also and entered
the barber shop Of John Ireland, next
door.
They stole scissors, razor strops and
soap. An ak was the only instrument
used. A
Charles Jones, colored porter N the
barber shop, was suspected of the crime
and was arrested yesterday by Officers
Flett and Sipe. The man is now in jail
pending the collection Of evidence.

MARINE CLIMPSES

According to reports from Port Town
send, there was an increase of 40 per
cent in the arrivals and departures of
British vessels this year. This was caused
by low freight rates. The American YES
seys stayed idle rather than accept the low
charters.
Another report of the unseaworthiness
Of the steamer Discovery comes from G..
Nigen an Everett groceryman, formerly
a sailor and one of the crew on that boat
on her first trip to Nome. He claims that
while lying at Port Townsend it was neces-
sary to keep the pumps going and that the
boat was in generally bad condition. He
says he never saw license to carry pass
engers in Boring sea while on the vessel.

tug Sampson, bound for the Tacoma

MAY HOLD TWO
CONVENTIONS

There is considerable talk among local
republicans over the project of holding
two state conventions, one early in the
year. to elect delegates to the national
convention. and another to nominate a
state ticket after the meeting of the ma
tional convention.
Said a prominent republican this morn
ing; although there is considerable diff

is little doubt but that two conventions
win be held The project OF nominating a
state ticket before the national platform

A Delightful Occasion.

President Roosevelt has one phrase of greeting.
He is "delighted' to see everybody and says so
with rare enthusiasm.
A gentleman from Kentucky went in to see the
President one day last spring. He sat in Secre-
tary Loeb's office awaiting his turn. The Presi-
dent came bounding out of his private office to
speak to Loeb and saw the Kentucky man sitting
there. He looked inquiringly at Loeb and the
Secretary at once made the proper introductions
The President shook the visitors hand warmly,
said he was "delighted' and then went back to his
Office. In a few minutes he came into the room
again, looked at the Kentucky visitor, and, appa-
rently, recognized him as some one he had seen
before, for he shook hands with him again and
again was "delighted."
This happened a third time, for the President
was busy and much preoccupied.
Il am sorry you have to wait so long" said
Loeb to the Kentuckian.
"Oh," he replied, cts all right. Pm going to
wait until / can get in there to see him. When
a mans delighted to see me three times / guess
he will give me what l want."-Saturday Evening

THE HOME CIRCLE
To q Snowbird.+

Thou fleet, frail voyager of the scowling sky,
Thy heavens swept by storms, thy earth so cold,
Thou art too small with venturous winds to try
Mid surging gusts thy devious course to hold
What charm doth keep thee here, when stronger
forms
Have sped in screaming haste before these
storms?
A sparrow's form, an eagles heart, is thine,
Small wings, but strong and sure mid perilS
stern,
Not honied ease, where tropic suns do shine,
Can win thee from these frost-bOund hills to
turn:
Thy being tuned to its wild melody,
The storm is d earer than the calm to thee.
Oh, surely kindly heaven has made thee know
That secret taught by Him of Galilee,
To comfort timorous men long years ago;
That He who rules creation thinks of thee,
Through eddying snow doth heed thy chirping
call,
And when confused and weary, marks thy fall.
Thou small, true knight upon my window ledge,
Teach me to love the storm like thee, to keep
Myself from sunny ease, 10 hold the pledge
Of heaven sure while tempests round me sweep:
So in my heart shall summers calm warmth cheer
The bitter winter of life's strenuous year.
&C. L. Greaves.
