Figureheads for Autos.

In some parts of the civilized
world the fetch or idol which disap-
peareI long ago is coming back, in
fact, has already returned to duty as
a guardian, protector, mascot or
whatever one may be pleased to call
it. The new idol is in shape accord
ing to the fancy of the automobile
owner, who places 1t on the front of
the machine to prevent accidents and
arrest. These figureheads are all
gTotesque in style, the most popular
being the image of a police officer
with watch in hand, a barking cur
and a Growing rooster.

RARE WASHINGTON RELIC.
Only One Known TO Exist of Six Ne.
daIliOns Made for LAFAYETTE.


Mrs. F. Luis Mora Of New York
city, owns a Washington relic which,
so far as is known, is the only one of
It's kind in existence. 1t is one of the
six medailions which were made to
order for General Lafayette.
Before Lafayette took leave of the
oficers of his staff, says the Circle.
he had these medallions made In
Paris, and presented them to the six
of1cers Immediately under him. The
nve others have disappeared and may
nave been destroyed. The one in
Mrs. Mora's possession is made OF
cut glass bound by heavy brim OF
solid gold, TO which is attached q
gold rang by which It may be sus-
pended. Between the two layers Of
glass is beautifully modelled head
Of Washington in plaster, silvered.
On the reverse is the inscription
''DespTez. Rue des Recolets No. 2,
Paris Washington" Note the OmiS-
sion Of the letter n in Washington.
The medallion came into Mrs.
Mora's possession through her great
grandfather, Lewis Compton, TO
whom it was presented soon after
the Revolutionary war.

BARROW TRAVEL IN CHINA.
Long Distances Made by Passengers
at Small Cost.

Long Distances Made by Passengers
at Small Cost.
Probably more freight and more
passengers are transported in China
by the wheelbaTrOw route than by
any other land method" said Alex
ander F. Georgii of Hongkong, China,
VINO is interested in the shipping
trade N the Far East.
The wheelbarrow used in China
differs from that used in America in
the fact that the wheel is set in the
center and thus supports practically
the entire load, while the handle are
supports in part by a strap or rope
over the shoulders Of the man who
operates it.
LAS a result the coOlie in China
Will transport nearly half a ton on
his wheel WheelbarroWs are much
used in the country where the roads
are but little developed, and / have
heard that passengers sometimes
make the entire trip from Shanghai
to Pekin, a distance of 600 miles
by barrow.
"A two passenger barrow will
make about 20 miles a day, and the
coolie is content with a pay of about
twenty cents a day, or an average OF
about half a cent a mile for each pas
senger. On the level, well kept
streets Of the foreign quarters Of
such cities as HOngkOng, Shanghai
and Pekin, the wheelbarrow coolie
will struggle along with a load of
six or even eight people.

The Postage Stamp Province.

Manitoba. which has long been
dubbed the Postage Stamp Prov
inCe," will soon be in a position to
lose her nickname. According to
Sir Wilfred Laurier's statement in
the Dominion House of Commons,
Manitoba, which has hitherto been
hemmed in on every side and has, at
least on the map, appeared to de-
serve the nickname she has borne,
is at last to be allowed to expand and
actually to reach the seaboard.

Woman Who CANDLES.

MoTalists say that the emotion OF
gaming makes women ugly. 1t is
not necessary to take the word OF the
moralists for that. Gaming does not
make women ugly, it unmasks them,
and It is of that that they must be
swarned. It is natural enough, since
they play passionately, and in play
ing they forget the world and their
faces. So much the worse for those
who do as Jezebel. Jean Lorrain
has left terrible pictures of old paint
ed faces, the natural condition of
which is revealed by the excitement

Promoting Smallpox Infection.

From the fact that smallpox which
is very prevalent in the Philippines
at certain seasons disappears when
the rains set IN, it has been argued
that the germs are carried in the air
An additional circumstance which
has the same apparent significance
IS reported from London. Hospital
ships, to which smallpox patients are
transferred. are anchored in the
Thames below the city. It has been
noticed that new cases break out
more frequently on the shore to
which the wind blows than on the

When Korea Led the World.

Few are aware that Korea preced-
co Europe in inventing three things
which have had a vast influence upon
the world. Printing with movable
types originated in Korea in 1924.
126 years before the invention of the
art in Europe. The two other in
ventiOns in which the Koreans seem
to have anticipated Europe were
the mortar and the ironclad, both
used with considerable effect, during
the japanese Korean war of 159S-9S.

THE JETTY NEWS.

The reports from the new official
survey of the Columbia river bar, is,
to say the very least of it, cheerful
and encouraging. 1t has the sanction
OF the Government and is given out
on the testimony OF Col, W. S. Roess-
Ter, an engineering officer in whom
both the Government and the people
have confidence. 1t is in direct con-
fornity with the expectations from
the jetty work that has been going
on for the past score OF years and is
an item that was looked for, now that
the great work is nearing completion
and should show some signs of doing
the work it was designed and built
to do.
AT all events it is officially declared
that there is 26 feet OF water there at
mean low water, and such state
ment, while susceptible OF denial and
disparagement, must be SO treated
that there may be no doubt left in any
mans mind, of the correctness
claimed for it. And we hope there
may never come any authentic dis
claimer, since it is vitality essential to
Astoria and the whole Columbia
valley, including Portland, that the
bar shall be cleared to the best COM
mercial depths, and held at them,

CLEVELAND.

Grover Cleveland is no more!.
With the passing of this man dies
all the conflict of opinion that swept
the nation during his official career as
President There are thousands to
say, even yet, that he was ever a
great man; but to that falls the in
variable answer that no living man
ever twice filled the American presi-
dency who was not great. The quail
ity of greatness varies as does that of
the lesser; and to the impartial his
torian must be left the degree Of fame
and faith to which Mr. Cleveland as
pired and arrived.
There he was an earnest, vigorous,
type; man Of substance and cour-
age there are none to question nor
forget. That he was fine type of
the building and home-loving
American has always been conceded
to him by those who admired him
least. That he was thinker, rea-
soner, a man of ideas and convictions,
with the knowledge and power to
enforce them upon the sense and con-
science of an immense following, has
always been admitted, even by his
enemies: and that he blundered at
some critical moments of his great
career has long since been forgiven
him because of the political martyr
dom wherewith he paid for the mis-
take of the hour.
The impress of his life and char
acter will remain part and parcel of
the national record, and disparage-
ment will never reduce, by the veriest
fraction, the honor that is due him as
public servant and private citizen.

THE HOLDING COMPANY.

The Morning Astorian is glad of
the movement to establish the cleo
trical system of railway that is to
connect this city with the coast re-
sorts, and intends to encourage it and
aid it in all possible ways; but, speak
ing for many people, it regrets the
fact that the subsidiary company, or
holding company, set up to carry the
equities of the concern until the tul-
filment of certain engagements
was not made up of others than those
directly interested in the main and
original company. 1t would have
given wider satisfaction in the COM
munity and would have served the
company's interest better to have
placed the cestui qui trust in the
hands of the Chamber of Commerce,
,or some of the leading and respon-
sibIe citizens, rather than to have as
signed it to hands and interests al
ready heavily engaged in the project.
This, without disparagement Of the
gentlemen constituting the holding
company; they are unimpeachable, OF
course: but they are not exactly the
ones to take over the responsibility
Of seeing to it that they themselves
shall do the full and faithful thing,
however perfectly they may do it. A
