aboard occasionally. The stack is white
with salt from the spray. Despite her

SAN FRANCISCO, December IS
General Transport Superintendent Bell
ringer and Chief Engineer Donnelly of
the same service have been engaged in
inspecting the Oceanic Steamship Com
pany' s three steamers, the Sierra, the
Sonoma and the Ventura, under in
structions from Washington, D. c. In
view of the fact that the government
has purchased the former Tacoma Ma
Mia liners Shawmut and fremont for
service on the Atlantic side, it IS
thought that this may mean the posi-
bilitv of a government service to
Ancon on the Pacific side.
The officials here, however, have no
information on the matter other than
the mere instructions from headquar-
tiers.

The Dix brought FIVE thousand tons
of coal presumably to be discharged
here, but it is likely that not more than
four thousand viii be put ashore, the re-
mainder to be carried on to Seattle.
The transport just missed the big
typhoon in which the hospital ship Re-
lief was caught and damaged, for hard
ly had the Dix tied up at Manila than
the fury of the typhoon swept over
Luzon. The officers saw the Relief
when she reached Manila. She was
considerable battered up.
The Dix was the unconscious cause of
considerable worriment at Washington
after she arrived at Manila. The quar-
termaster department there neglected
to cable her arrival to Washington and
the authorities there worried over her
nonappearanee and for a time it was
thought she had suffered a similar fate
to that of the Relief Finally when
the cable began to sizzle between Wash
ingtOH and Manila, the information
reached the former city that the Dix
had been IN port six days and was quite
safe.
There is some wonderment that the
army authorities did not send the Dix
back TO the mainland earlier so that
she could bring the horses of the two
squadrons of the Fifth Cavalry to Ho
nolulu. Instead, the government is
bringing the mounts on the Virginian,
of the Observation-Disclosures line, sailing
on January from San Francisco. The
Dix is one of the best-ftted-up annual
transports in the world.
Some Of the marine dandies of the
service are aboard the Dix These are
the Filipino sailors. They are eorsid-
cred the best dressed men in the en-
plov Of the marine branch of the army,
or even of the navy. The Filipino
spends most Of his pay on clothes and
they must be of the latest cut. First
of all he buys a pair of the best and
most up-to-date shoes and with couple
of pairs Of socks. Then comes a coat,
then trousers and finally the last good
article of clothing is the hat.
4 group Of sailors went ashore yes
terdav afternoon. Their clothes were
the latest cut, clean. welI-pressed and
they looked like navy officers going
ashore in mufti. The ships officers
looked at them with amusement.

Renewal of Industrial Activity.
Baltimore Sun.

Baltimore Sun.
The announcement in a Pittsburg
dispatch that $4,000 men returned
to work Yesterday in certain indus
tries in that section is very encour-
aging. 1t is stated in this dispatch
that before the end of the present
week "the Pittsburg district. it is ex-
pected, will have practically resumed
the prosperous conditions which
were interrupted by the financial
cloud last October" Authorities
concur in the belief that the agricul-
tural production of the United
States this year will in all probability
be decisive factor in expediting the
restoration of prosperous conditions.
There are indications OF large crops
of all kinds. While no new records
are likely to be made there is conf
dence that the yield will be sufficient
to facilitate the return Of favorable
conditions in business. Big crops
mean increased business for the rail
roads and for the merchants. To
"move the crops requires large
sums of money, and it is worthy of
note that this matter has already
received the attention of Treasury
officials. The hope may be indulged,
without excessive optimism, that
the country will soon be fairly started
on the way to the complete resump-
tiOn of normal business and indus
trial conditions.

MIR. Harris and 'Uncle Remus.

From '"fhe Author" in the American Re-
view of Reviews for August.
Joel Chandler Harris did not look
like literary man, did not talk or
act like one, and, for that matter.
always refused to consider himself as
one. But "Uncle Remus" has been
translated into twenty-seven lam
guages. and it would not be easy to
name any American author who will
be surer of his readers hearts hun
dred years hence.
Mr.. Harris was a Georgia news
paper man, a very quiet, shy person
OF hOmely tastes in everything save
reading, an author who was OBJ
scured by immediate panic when a
strange admirer worshiped before
him. He was, however, the truest
and most unaffected friend in his
own little circle-a man who could
enjoy taking the reins of the street
car horse that plodded toward his
office while the driver ate his dinner
inside, as much as he could suffer
when a strange interviewer invaded
his sanctum, bent on exploiting him.
He always felt that the ''Uncle
Remus" stories were a sort OF accl-
dent in which he bore a cOmpara-
lively unimportantp part. The stories
appeared first in the Atlanta Con-
stitution in the '7O's. Harris had at
the age of twelve entered a country
newspaper office as printers devil.
He had gone through the multifari-
Gus grind" Of a provincial news
paper man in Savannah, Macon, and
elsewhere, when in 1876 Colonel
Howell brought him to the Atlanta
Constitution as editorial writer and
capable journalistic man-of-allwork.
Soon after this "Si" Small, who had
been doing dialect sketching for the
Constitution, resi- gned, and Colonel
Howell, with sometlificulty, persuad-
ed Harris to step into the breach
and keep the readers amused.
The only thing the young editor
could think of was to write down
the old plantation stories he had
heard in the negro cabins while,
after the fashion of Southern boys,
he had loafed with the darkies in
front of the big open fireplace, with
hoecakes browning and bacon siz-
zlin@. So he ransacked his memory
| for the most characteristic OF these
dearkey stories, printed them in the
Constitution, and became famous.
