purpose originated.
Thus. the German people during the last decades
have passed through ever-recurring revolutions in
questions of home. arrangements and decorations.
The evolution of a new style was not peaceful. but
took place amid continuous warfare between the old
and the new art. Now. however, the work is &C
cofnplished. and out of all the revolutions and evolu,
tons a new style and a new taste have emerged.
That such a new art was under way many Aneri-
cans had perceived in the Fathcrland. but now the
fair at St. Louis gives to the general public as never
before the desired opportunity to study this new
German idea. The German press declares that even
in Germany no art-industrial exposition has taken
place on such a large scale. Upon an area of ninety
thousand square feet in the Varied Industries Palace
this great exhibit has been erected,
This. indeed, is not an exposition such as people
in former times were in the habit of showing, and even
at the present time most of the nations are content
where one concern has exhibited its furniture side by
side with that of another; but the whole has been COM
posed tremendously. Here the striking feature is not
the individual piece of furniture, but the arrangement
and equipment of homes in totally. No exhibitor
was admitted whose goods could not face the iudg-

ranged was undertaken; and thus at the same tine

by a raised court of honor in green

In showcases which were especially
constructed for this exposition are

When an analysis OF the scheme is undertaken. four

no chairs with all kinds OF embellishments and backs
that hurt their occupants: there are no tables with
frail legs. no uncomfortable sofas: no curtains that
shut out the light when it is wanted. On the con-
trarv. these rooms are extremely comfortable. More
than that. they are eminently fitted each for the pur-
pose for which it was intended. The writing-dcSk it

the arrangements of their homes have
paid homage to the French style.

old traditions. and viewing the French

before, is the style of Louis Quinze-

As to the report that he has been

London, Sept 10.-Thomas Harte an
Irishman in Leeds workhouse, says he
is not merely the oldest subject of
King Edward, but also the Oldest man
in the world.
He was born, he says. in the year
1897; he is even sufficiently precise to
know the date of the month-it was
June II, 1857. On this basis he would
certainly be in his 1SSth year.
He has been the husband of five sue
cessive wives, all from Yorkshire, and
the father of As children. He is still
in good health and in full possession
of his mental faculties. There is no
record of an older person than Harte

BIS to practice the landing of forces on
the coast of the fatherland during the
naval maneuvers which will commence
this month. This experimental work is
similar to the tests about to be made
by our own naval forces on the Essex
coast.
The results obtained by the two ma
vies are to be compared by the Ger
man staff for the benefit OF the Ger
man naval and military authorities,
The German emperor, with whom the
idea of making this comparison orig
mated. is to take personal command of
his fleet and the maneuvers are to
last from September to September
20. In order that the work may be
fully appreciated by the general staff,
a contingent of so staff officers will
accompany the ships and watch the
methods Of Decentralization.
A fine fleet of warships is being mo-
bilized for the maneuvers, and trials
will be made with different patterns of
boats and RATS for landing purposes.
No attaches representing other coun-
tries will be present.
The German army maneuvers will
follow those of the navy. The German
emperor has especially invited Colonel
E. A. LIE P. Trench to attend the oper-
ations. This officer is in charge of the

Careful Estimate Of the Northern
Pack as Given by the Asso.

NOT MORE THAN HALF APACK
Aggregate OF All Varieties to

Seattle Sept, i0,--The pack Of all
varieties OF salmon IN Southeastern
Alaska, up to September |, according
to information received by local houses,
aggregated $685. cases. OF this total
there are 2Ol,o00 cases of reds, $780,
500 cases OF pinks. and 10000 cases OF
one pound tall kings. The figures on
medium reds are not given as that pack
was still In progress and will not rep
resent very great total. These fig
ures are claimed to be as nearly cor
rect as 1t is possible to secure at this
time and will not vary much from the
statements returned by the canneries,
Very few Of the canneries have equalei
their pack of last year, and IN addi-
ton many establishments were closed
up entirely this season.
The reports have already been re-
ceived from the westward and BerIng

HEpRlck's STILL AHEAD.
The Bill For the Coming Week at
Hedriek's Popular Theater Eelipses
Any Yet Produced.

Undoubtedly the attractions to come
before the Astoria public at Hedrick's
amusement house tomorrow evening
will comprise the greatest entertain
ment yet produced In this city.
Samson and Zaccho are world re-
nowned for their Incompatible feats
of strength and skill. Nothing to equal
worlds stage. Samson has the most
remarkable muscular development and
performs the most astounding feats of
strength of any of earth's strong men,
Breaking half-inch steet chains;
breaking a silver dollar; tearing pack
of cards; juggling with heavy dumb
bells; throwing a 275-pound dumbbell
over his head and catching IT, lifting
with one finger a barrel filed with
water and sand and weighing 500
pounds; sustaining weight of 400
pounds on his body while hanging in
verted raising a horse and platform
weighing 1900 pounds with his teeth;
whirling man. suspended from a chain
held in his teeth; these and many otner
incomprehensible feats are performed
nightly by the unequaled Samson.
While Samson has absolutely no
equal among men, there is one woman
in whom he finds his match. Zaccho,
the queen Of lady entertainers, and
champion Of Europe, has lately come
to America to tour the country in COM
pany with Samson, making the strong
est team ever on the stage. Her mar
velous exhibitions of strength, skill and
muscular development have been the
charm and astonishment OF every city
where she has been seen. This re-
markable woman lifts more than 1900
pounds with her teeth alone. The par
aphernaIia and wardrobe of Samson
and Zaccho are show in themselves.
Fields and whallen are two other
attractions that have been engaged for
the week and of that little need be |
said beyond the verdict given By the |
Baltimore American, one of the most |
responsible papers In the country In
criticism of a performance at the
ater there. The American said:
"The best features were John C. |
Field, jr, and Carrie b. Whallen in
a sketch replete with melodious songs. |
Theirs is unquestionabIy the neatest
turn on the bill, and received the lions
share Of applause. Miss Whalleh's !
costumes are things of beauty, and |
much finer than is expected at such |
performances. Mr.. Fields introduced
his original character Of 'Chimmie
Fadden.' the Bowery boy. He created
this part and was the first to play it."
The four performers mentioned
above would be more of an attraction
than is ordinarily found in any other
iheater in the northwest, but Manager
Hedrick has also engaged others, also
for next week, among them being
Beliveau and Roberts, who are of thel
