A COPPER WITH A HISTORY

F. W. Pettygrove, son of F. w. Petty grove. one of the founders of Portland,
 and the man who named the city, has in his possession the copper cent with
 which his father won the right to se- lect the name. He is a commercial traveller for a San Francisco house,
 and naturally sets great store by this cent which he has shown to many here on his visit to this city. Some of his friends have besought him to turn this cent over to the Oregon Historical So- ciety to be preserved, but he has not been able to make up his mind to do this. George H. Hines, secretary of the society, has been advised to wrestle with MT. Pettygrove, and it is not un- likely that he may succeed in securing
 this historical coin. MT. Pettygrove has also in his possession the Bible used on the occasion of the first sermon ever

 The leading editorial writer of the Russ advocates the sale to China of the railway from Harbin to Port Arthur. The paper has treated this suggestion with great consideration without hith- erto taking positive stand. It is no ex- aggeration to say that the extreme view find approval among the large ma jority of educated public of Russia.
 Keen curiosity was exhibited all over the room when his majesty approached MT. Kurino, the Japanese minister to Russia. The conversation between the czar and the minister was cordial and extended. His majesty emphasized the high value which he places upon the good and neighborly relations between Japan and Russia, not only now, but in the future, and expressed his un-

The thirty fourth annual concert which is to be given at the Hyperion theater tri- day evening, January P, by the New Haven Caledonian club in honor of the birth of Robert Burns, promises to be the most sue cessful ever given by the club. Nothing has been spared by the management to present an excellent program to the New Haven public, and for this a number Of excellent singers have been secured, as well as two well known local men, who will speak, Hen: Livingston W. Cleaveland, the chairman of the concert, and an address on Burns by Rev. Wm. W. Leete. D. D., pastor Of the

pense and annoyance as possible. But even a Secretary may be powerless in the hands of dle Barnacles of the Cir cunnIocution Office. The restrict ions placed upon {the exhibition of Mrs. Gardner's treAsures offered at least a technical douHt as to the legality of ex- empting them. from duty; and anything of that kind is always enough for a Government official. Mrs. Gardner paid the two hundred thousand dollars de- manded. How far this will encourage her to import further costly works of art remains to be seen.
 There are known to be various col- lections of value owned by Americans which are kept abroad because of the unwillingness of their owners to pay the exorbitant duties demanded. It may be said, of course, that Iuxuries can bear taxation better than necessities; and in one sense a work, of art is a luxury. But on the other hand the in fiuence upon the social life of people which art and literature exerts is not to be measured in dollars and cents. The Italian Government endeavors to prevent the art treasures of Italy from being sold out of the country; we do our utmost to shut out such as might jcome here. These contrasting atti- tudes represent the difference between civilization and barbarism.

 It was in the summer of 1S45 that A. L. Lovejoy and F. W. Pettygrove, who owned the claim on which Portland
 was located, employed Thomas A.
 Brown to survey their property and lay II off into streets, blocks and lots, and when he had completed the plot the proprietors undertook to choose a name for the newly born city. Mir. Lovejoy desired to call it Boston. in honor of the capital of his native State. MT. Petty
 grove contended that Portland was more appropriate. as it was at the head of navigation and the port where would
 land all the freight intended for the valley of the Willamette and all the southern produce of the territory. Iii |, order to decide the question it was pro-
 posed by MT. Pettygrove to toss a cop
 per cent, which he had brought with
 his as a souvenir of his Eastern home. This was agreed to by MT. Lovejoy.
 The cent was tossed, and, MT. Petty
 grove proving the winner, Portland was adopted as the name of the embryo city.-Portland Oregonian.

shaken hope that mutually satisfac- tween the two countries would be ar .anged. Minister Kurino left the recep- tion profoundly impressed with his majesty's' words.
 It had become known here, through the foreign office that Count Cassini, the Russian ambassador to the United States, had been instructed to assure the United States government that Russia would not interpose objections
 to the commercial treaty between China
 and the United States or impede Amer ican rights or interests in Manchuria. His majesty referred to these instruc- tions in lengthy conversation with
 Ambassador Mccormick and laid much stress on his desire that Russia and the United States should live on the terms of intimate and cordial friendship which had existed for so many years, and which it was his especial desire to maintain. He most emphatically dis claimed the slightest inclination to hin- der the developments of American com merce.

TAXING ART.

Tariff legislation in the United States has had many Liberal features, But nothing could be more obnoxious and absurd than the present customs duty on works or art. For many anomalies in the system the excuse of protection may serve; in many cases there are in dustrial interests crying insistently for |Government favor. In the case of works of art, however, even this plea is lacking. The American artist neither needs nor asks for the barrier of tar if. A man who can paint good pfc- lures or model good statuary may safe
 ly stand on his own merits; if his work is known it will find buyers Adding to the cost of foreign painting or stat
 ues will not aid him. The artists themselves understand this; they have
 demanded more than once the repeal
 of existing duties; and if the recent ex- perience of Mrs. J. L. Gardner of Bos-
 ton leads to a renewal of the move ment for their abolition, no one will be better pleased than they. It Is stated from Washington that the Massaohu- sets delegation in the House will be unanimous in urging such abolition, and that both Senators will take the
 same ground. Since the sincerity of the majority of these men as protec- tionists is not open to question, the folly of the present law scarcely re- quires demonstration.
 It will be remembered that Mrs, Gardner brought into this country some time ago, a remarkable collection of valuable works of art for her new museum, and that she ask for exenp- tion from paying duty on them because they were intended for public exhibi- ton. While there has been more or less criticism of the terms upon which Mrs. Gardner was prepared to admit the public to see then-how just it may have been does not matter here--the fact remains that such collection, if accessible under any conditions, is a vast benefit to the community where it l is true, was contained in Mrs. Gardner $ own palace, and it's treasures were for her personal enjoyment and that of | her friends in the first case But the restrictions imposed upon visitors did not make it simply a private collection; and there is every reason to suppose that in the course of time some of these restrictions will be relaxed and that the whole museum may finally either become public property or be es- l tablished as permanent place of ex- hibition for works that people have of ] ten travelled thousands of miles to see. At all events the making of such a fine collection is an undertaking to be encouraged, not punished.
 But our liberal-minded Government could hardly be expected to let so good
 an opportunity go by for levying Q tax on intelligence. The principle that puts exorbitant duties on foreign books was not to find an exception in the case of foreign works of art, however rare. | Probably the Secretary of the Treasury would have been glad to let Mrs. Gard iner's treasure pass.

NlSSHIN and KASU6A

The origin OF the names Nisshln and
Kasuga, the two war vessels sent out
from Naples for the japanese navy and
reported safe and sound at their home
port yesterday, is very interesting
Some thirty-six years back, when
japan had no navy whatever and when
the advance of western civilization
seemed to menace the very life OF
Japan, two japanese daimios, or feudal
lords, conceived the plan of protecting
the coasts by the use of war vessels.
They therefore had constructed two
wooden vessels and armed them with
the best implements of modern war
fare II was possible to secure. These
two boats were named the Nisshin and
Kasuga, the former meaning New
Sun and the latter Spring Day."
Kasuga is the name OF japanese god,
whose shrine is still In existence at
Nara, near Osaka, on the Island OF
Hondo. The name OF one OF the dali
mics who paid for the construction of
the war vessels was Mon.
These two wooden vessels are now
In the last stages of decay and yet they
formed the nucleus of navy which
is now proving its superiority over
that of the Gear. In order that they
and what they represented might not
be forgotten, the new vessels were
named the Nisshin and Kasuga.
