Five Masted Schooner II. K. Hall
Pays First Visit to This
Port.

Other Marine News
of Interest.

An odd-lookikug craft, the Ave-
masted schooner H. X. Hall, arrived In
the river Sunday. The Hall Is one OF
the two five-masted schooners on the
coast, and is now here on her first
under charter to the Pacific Export
Lumber Company to load lumber for
Manila. She is the finest schooner
rugged vessel that ever made this port,
and, having the distinction of being
one of very few of the f1ve-masters,
attracted more or less attention.
The three-masted schooner Luns-
man, which arrived Saturday from
Honolulu, beat the Hall on the trip up
from the islands. The Lunsman de-
parted from Honolulu March 1S and
reached Astoria in 10 days. The Hall
left March 10 and got in after run OF
23 days. The master of the Lunsman
reports that he experienced some very
bad weather a few days ago, when
couple of hundred miles south of the
Columbia. The storm prevailed at sea
and there was no evidence of it on
land.
tt Hall sailed from Puget sound
last August with a cargo of lumber
for Australia. She loaded coal at New
castle for Honolulu and then sailed in
ballast for Astoria. She is a newly
equipped vessel, registering L,105 net
tons and 1881 gross tons. The five
asted schooner Louis is the only |
other vessel of this class which has
ever made Astoria. The wife of the |
master of the Hall accompanies him. |

women who are masters" of hounds
In England. She owns. maintains and
win the ASSISTANCE OF a FIRST and second

barriers. which shows really excellent
sport. The pack was established in
1894. and hunted in Northumberland for
three seasons. In 1897 it was brought
to Old Park, Chichester. Lord Gifford's
residence.
Needless to say, Lady Clifford is per-
feet horsewoman, and needs TO be. Her
pack, the best in the country of which
woman is master" hunts twice a
week during the season over a radius of
about nine miles about Chichester The
country is very varied and contains
some large bitches. But there is very
little WIRE

CHICAGO MAN STIRS BERLIN
Frederic Horace Clarke Arouses Mn.
sicians with His Rointed
Criticisms.

"You have frozen Beethoven stiff, and
he can't turn over in his grave him
self"
1t is the voice of one Frederic Horace
Clarke. Of Chicago, crying in the mu-
steal wilderness of Berlin. Under the
name of Leo St. Damian, MIR. Clarke
has been giving a series of seven
piano recifals, which have greatly
stirred up Berlin, which regards itself
as the musical center of creation.
'"The piano must be played without
any independent finger movement or
hand stroke" he says. Il have almost
outgrown the angle at elbow and very
often have a polaric magnetic undula-
ton or unbroEen outpOuriug of en-
ergy through the whole arm in scales,
octaves and chords.
From an aesthetic point of view II
is a sin to render two consecutive
bars of music exactly alike in any re-
spect. Infinite variety in unity is the
true principle in art as in nature.
Berlin orchestras and panists are
just numbering the immortals every
day with their stuffy metronomic
classicism. 1t is charlatanism."

Senator Clark to Wed?

New York, May THE report was
reviv, ,o-dsy that Senator William
A. Clark, the Montana copper king,
WILSON marry his ward, Miss Amelia
La Chapelle, whom he has been
educating abroad. A rumor that the
millionaire would make the young
woman his wife and the mistress OF
the S7,000,000 residence which he
has erected in Fifth avenue started
in Washington two years ago.
1t is understood that Senator
Clark's three children-Charles, Mrs.
f. NJ. Culver and Mrs. Lewis Ruther
ford Morris-have objected without
avail to the proposed alliance.
Senator Clark is now 65 years old,
Miss La Chapelle is 81. Not only has
the millionaire cared for her since her
fathers death, but her sisters and
her mother have been supported, and
shown every consideration.

BELOVED In SWEDEN.
cray of Sunshine" Title of Prin-
cess Ingeborg.
Danish Wife of the Kings Third Son
Is the Idol of the People as
Well as of the Royal
Family.

Princess Ray of Sunshine" is the
most charming figure at the Swedish
court. Her proper title is Princess
Ingeborg, and she is the Danish wife
Of Prince Charles, the third son of the
king of Sweden. Her nickname is a
tribute not only to her blond beauty
but TO the sweet and gracious qualities
which have made her the idol OF the
people as well as Of the royal family.
Princess Louise OF Sweden, daughter
OF Charles w., married the crown
prince of Denmark. and Princess Inge-
borg is one of their four daughters.
When as little girl she came from
Copenhagen to visit the Swedish court,
her comrade and playfellow was
Prince Charles. Later. when she came
as young girl. their childish affection
ripened into mutual love. Their fam
lilies consented to marriage, and in
1897 the wedding took place.
When the young princess came to
the Swedish court every one was
charmed with her smiling, blond beau
ty-she is very fair, with bright blue
eyes-and in a little while she was
nicknamed princess Ray Of Sun
shine" She seems morally. as we'll as
physically. to merit the title.
Her love of flowers amounts to a pas
sion. As a child she was constantly
gathering and arranging them. and TO-
day this is her favorite occupation.
Her duties as a mother-for she has
two little daughters-she yields to no
servant. Though Princess Margaret,
aged more than 4, and Princess Martha,
nearly 3, are well beyond the infant
stage, Princess lngeborg gives all her
morning to bathing, dressing and
playing with them The afternoon she
spends in promenades, and in the
evening she receives
Love for her own children has
caused her to interest herself in other
children, She has founded a "Creche
school" in suburb of Stockholm,
where the children of working women
are taken care Of, and where young
girls and mothers are taught how to
care for young children. Many nurses
are very incompetent for children. and
this school fills long-felt want
The princess goes out in her open
carriage. unaccompanied. She takes
walks with no one for companion but
her little daughter. Perhaps one of
the reasons why she is called Ray of
Sunshine" is because she is as gen
erous with her presence as the sun
shine.
She is small, and when she was mar
ried she and Prince Charles, who Is
very tall, presented a striking con-
trast.
