II Uncle Sam should come TO Astoria
and see Just what kind Of place the
customs inspectors have to house them
selves in while on duty on the water
front he would DO something for i'm
pIosement. But as Uncle Sam ID a
long distance away it is up to some Of
the progressive men Of Astoria to ac.
quaint him with conditions and secure
the needed change.
AT the present time the inspectors,
when on duty, have the privilege OF
staying in the shack which the crew Of
the United States Customs Patrol have
Tor their quarters while the boat is tied
TO the dock
In former years this bunkhouse was
owned by the |. X. Il n. Company and
yas taken over with the rest OF the
stock OF the company when that line
was taken up by the 0. r. g. n. Com
pany. But the o. X. & n. Company
could not have known what valuable
piece Of property they had acquired and
when crew OF the patrol boat asked for
It the officials Of the company gener-
ously gave it to them.
The crew hauled the cabin to its
present resting place and there it now
stands. II is small and has one room
which the crew stays in during rainy
weather and which the inspectors stay II
when on duty. There is a phone in thu
small room and the shelves have beer
kindly lent by the crew TO the inspec.
tors to keep several OF their books ant
papers on. II has scarcely room fol
the crew and in the winter time thu
hangers.on around the dock flock int
the warm room and the place is 81
crowded that the real occupants ar
forced out.
To stranger the place looks like
iisherman's hut and il some public
minded individual will get busy ther
might be soon an attractive little ofic
built Tor the inspectors and simila
resting place for the crew of the patrc
boat which would be credit to the cit,
and the government. :

Mrs. Swaggers selected half dozen
neckties and gave them to her hus-
band Christmas. Usually some women
exhibit poor. taste when they select
neckties for their husbands. But in
this case you are quite sure that Mrs.
Swaggers selected just the right kind.
However. she .didtnot. They looked
frightful on Mr.. Swaggcrs.
This is generally the rule.
Mr.. Summers played Santa Claus
at the church entertainment Christ
mas eve. He was bedecked with cot
ton batting and presented a fine op-
portunity for the fire flend. The tree
was lighted with candles, too. Mr..
Summers was flying around and ac-
cidentally upset the tree and the light
ed candles came in contact with his
fancy dress.
1t would have been. awful but Mr..
Summers had taken the precaution to
treat the cotton With some kind of q
chemical that made it impervious to
fire. -.
But you don't often read about such

Men usually like to select their own
cigars, you know. But Mrs. Biggers
gave her husband box of cigars for
Christmas present, and selected
them because they were in a beauti-
full box with a handsome picture OH

Naturally you think that they were

aroos."
How easy it would be to fool you
and say they We're real cigars. But
truth is mighty and will prevail.
They were "stinkaroos." =.

musicians, brehons, came; 2,700 en-
joyed her hospitality and munifcence.
A second entertainment was held for
those who were absent from the first.
A valuable gift was the parting token
Of respect from this noble lady to
each guest. OF these thousands
goodly number must assuredly have
been musicians.
In 1892 the harpers of all Ireland
were invited to attend a Feis held in
the city Of Belfast under the auspices
of a society organized to encourage
the harp. Ten harpers, old, and many
of them blind, responded, to the call.
What volumes Of history can one read
between these lines.
With the old harpers and pipers who
had dropped from the ranks had per-

Since then efforts have been made to
collect from the cabin fireside the re-

In early times music was not writ

from one generation to another. Thos
Moore in the last century did much
to make Irish music popular. BY set

San Franeisco's Opportunity for Build.
ines Of Distinctive Architecture.
George Ashdown Audslcy, l.. l.. IT,,
ecclesiastical architect, who designed
the cathedral Of st. Edward the Con-
fessor and other notable buildings in
the United States, is at the ST. Fran
els, says the San Francisco journal
of Progress.
DR.. Audsley is regarded as the fore
most living authority of Gothic art or
both sides Of the Atlantic. He sees
great possibilities for the beautit1ca-
ton Of the new San Francisco III the
refinement of the so-called Mission
type Of architecture.
"Tllere is no reason why San Fran
cisco should not DO one of the most
beautiful and distinctive cities in tho
United States" he said. '"rhe Spanish
adobe structures scattered through
out the state are merely echoes Of
the richest inherent in the early
Moorish Spanish types. The crudity
enforced by the conditions under
which they We're built resulted in a
harshness of curves and general de-
traction from the original refinement
Of the types. They still stand as not
able, and quite frequently beautiful,
adaptations OF a splendid style, but
they lack concrete aim and utterance.
In drawing. on this style for contem-
porary needs there is no reason. why
architects Of the new San Francisco
cannot so back to the original founts
and evolve type Of structure that
will be at once. consistent. and dis.
4 tinctive. Purity of outline is wha'
most of the old adobe buildings 1acl
principally. The spirit of the style
has been obscured, and the restora.
tion of this will bring with it what
will be tantamount to new and sur.
prising structural achievements.
don't know of any city in America
that has a greater opportunity thar
San Francisco for an architectural re-
naissance OF its own.'

AN ORIENTAL INVASION.
Thousands Of Japanese Coolies Flock
ing to San Francisco.

ing to San Francisco.
California regards these japanese
coolies with great adherence, aye, with
even greater fear than they did the
coolies from China. We feel that the
former have all the vices OF the Chi
nese. with none Of their virtues. In
business they are absolutely devoid Of
the stern sense Of honor Of the Chi
nese." In an address before the New
York Credit Mems Association, Julius
Kahn, representative from California,
voiced the foregoing speech OH 'Thc
Japanese Question as Affecting San
Francisco
In the course OF his remarks Mr..
Kahn said: "rhc Japanese have legal
lied in their country relations be-
tween sexes which according to our
standard are positively immoral We
will not permit our young children to
be thrown in contact with adult Japa-
ncse, and threats of military interfer-
cnce will make the people Of Califor-
mia more steadfast in their purpose
We who have learned to know the lit
tie brown men have no faith in his
professions of loyalty. He does not
recognize the binding force OF our
oaths. The oath Of naturalization
would be hollow nockery."
Beginning With the history of tho
hordcs of Chinese coolies who came
into California until 1878 by an over
whelming vote, that state put itself
on record as against their admission
Mr.. Kahn said that the residents of
the Pacific coast know more about the
present situation than any Of their
countrynen, who live three thousand
miles away and have beautiful theo-
ries.
"Now we are threatened with an
Oriental invasion. Since the disaster
in my city the Japanese coolies have
been coming in at the rate OF one
thousand" month. We want the
coolies excluded. The Japanese are
allowed to come in while the Chinese,
who make far better citizen. are ex-
cluded. In San Francisco the Japa-
nese are driving out the whites by Of
fering higher rents for the property.
AS to the school question, white pa
rents object to having their little chill
dren with adult japanese. The latter
were not denied free education, but
were segregated and told to go to the
Oriental school long used by the chill
dren Of the Chinese"

Made tho Bear Work.

Bill Winters is one of the heroes
who use their wit to save their
strength. During Il camping trip In
the Maine woods Bill was easily the
LATEST man in the party
Finally his cxasperated comrades
told him that if hc did not kill somc-
thing besides time they would pack
him off home.
The next morning Bill borrowed n
rife and went up to the mountains.
Two hours later tho men in camp saw
Bill running down again as fast as
lie could come, and close behind him
was a bear. Tho men watched the
chase with loaded rifles ready. On
reaching camp Bill turned and shot
the bear
When the men could stop laughing.
one of them said, Bill, what on earth
possessed you to run that distance,
with the bear so close, when you
might have killed him on the Hill and
saved your breathe"
Bill smiled slowly. whats the use
of killing II bear in the mountains and
Juggling him in when you can run him
in?" he asked.

Irish Crosses.

Sir Henry Bellingham recently in
augurated at Castle Belingllam Coun-
ty Loutll, the custom Of setting up the
wayside cross in Ireland. In ancient
crosses erected in the market places,
to remind all who transacted business
there to be just in their dealings ana
to return to their homes in peace and
sobriety. The termon lands, also,
which were places OF sanctuary and
surrounded the churches and 1nonas-
tcries, were marked by high crosses,
and afforded protection to fugitives
from vengeance.
About fifty of these ancient stone
crosses still remain in various parts Of
ireland, and some Of them bear in
scriptions with names OF persons who
have been identified as living at vari-
Gus times from 9o4 to the year 1850.
An exact reproduction of one Of the
most beautiful amongst them, namely,
the High Cross Of Monasterboice. was
an object of general admiration during
the late Cathedral fair. Sir Henry
Bellingham, who is so piously per-
petuating a Catholic practice not un-
common in ancient Ireland, was not

SUICIDES FOR
NAN PATTERSON

PITTSBURG, Sept. 4.-Dr. John
Brittyn of this city, who committed
suicide in St. Louis, supposedly be-
cause he lost $500 in backing a mas
sage parlor, is today reported to have
sought death because Of an infatuation
for Nan Patterson. DR.. William Mar
lin, a friend of the suicide, received a
letter today which Brittyn had written
the day before he took his life. While
he refuses to make known the con-
tents, he intimates that Brittyn had
killed himself because Nan Patterson
had scorned his attentions.
During Nan Pattersons recent So
iourn in Pittsburg, which ended a few
days ago, Brittyn was almost con-
stantly in her company. They spent
days together at the Wildwood Inn, a
roadhouse back of McKeesport, Brit
tyn neglecting his business and spend
ing all of his money in company with
the former actress, who is still unac-
quilted of the murder of Caesar
Young. Brittyn was not wealthy by
any means, anu IL ulu hoI IohS iOii6 ~
burn up the small sum he had saved
When he was nearing the end of his
string and there was no more money
in sight, the woman, it is said, turned
her attention to men who were more
prosperous. In vain Brittyn attempt
ed to regain favor. 1t is said he was
