A Graceful Getaway.

Mr. Makinbrakes, who had been urged to stay for luncheon, was try ing to make graceful getaway. "Awfully sorry" he said, land ever so much obliged, but l couldn't think of it. It's a lot of bother to have people drop in on you unex- pectedly and to feel that you've got to invite them to stay and eat with you--er-just to be polite, you know-I mean that it's always a lot of bother for me, of course, par ticularly when-when it happens to be somebody that you don't care for anyhow-speaking of myself, you understand - or perhaps ] should say don't mean myself ir this particular case-well, anyhow, I have an engagement besides, or it would afford me great pleasure, l assure you, to--to--well, good aft ernoon, Mir. and Mrs. varney. = Chicago Tribune.

IRRIGABLE LANDS.
Commissioner General Land Office Fn. vors Withdrawal of Irrigable Lands.

In his annual report for the last fiscal year, Commissioner Fred Den ett of the general land office, rec ommends the withdrawal from en- try of all public lands which may be irrigated, but which are not now capable of being utilized for homes. On that point he says;
 "The proper step to take would be to classify the lands of the United States in order to ascertain what public lands. in their present condition, are susceptible of irriga tion at a cost even much greater than that now entertained by the reclamation service, and to with draw these lands from entry await ing the tune when they can be irri- gation be made homes either under the United States government or under the Carey act.
 It will be only comparatively few years before an irrigation pro- iect which will cost as high ass$200 an acre will he considered practi- cable. the market for the land jus tifying such an expenditure. No one can be hurt by such with drawal, for desert land which can not be reclaimed by the individual effort of settler can never become d nome until water Is brought to Il by the government, the state or by the expenditure of vast sums bS private enterprise.

AN IMPRESSIVE MOMENT.
When the Ships Belt Tolls at Night Is
 Midocean.

The party was made up ot travel lovers, and the conversation turned on impressive experiences One spoke of standing at twilight among the ruins of the great temple at Karnak, another of visit to the Acropolis by moonlight and d third of his first glimpse of rock bound Bethlehem, with the tender spring sunshine falling on the historic walls. The fourth member of the group paused a moment before making his contribution to the ob- servations.
 ''The experience in travel which affected me-or shall l say affects me-the most" he said, "does not come strictly in the class of those of which you speak. It is not view in any place, with all the asso- citations that such vista may sum mon up. Indeed, there is no place to it, except the general place that we call the ocean. But it is of i'm pressions that we are talking, and my most vivid impression in all my journeyings is connected with an incident of shipboard life, an incl dent that constantly repeats itself and always, l hope, with deeper meaning. You see now why l speak of 1t in the present instead of the past, because any one who goes down to the sea in ships can appre- ciate it if he is so disposed
 "After nightfall let the seafarer go forward. If you haven't com panion who understands things you had better go by yourself. Let your thoughts dwell on the deep, on the remoteness of all else from the lit tie world comprised within your yes sel. Think of her sure progress across the dark wastes to her des. tination. Think perhaps of the lands you are to see or of those left behind. And, so musing, wait till the hour is sounded on the ships bells and the voice of the lookout falls upon your ears with its 'All's wellp
 ''I care not what the language the chord that it strikes in the mind is instantly comprehended That's a moment when, if you are with one who can truly be called friend, hands seek each other, and pressure tells that two spirits on life's sea have knowledge in their common thankfulness for benefits received, in their hopes of what the future may hold and in their memo ries of the past of mutuality of interest--a brotherhood, if you may SO call it--that knits heart to heart and makes each heart the stronger.
 '1f you are alone at such time you cannot fail to summon to you at least one spiritual presence, and who knows that the bond of sym pathy you feel under such circum- stances is not fully as enduring as when clasp answers clasp in recog- milton of the message of the time honored words 2"
 A silence fell upon the men. At last one spoke-the one who had talked of Karnak at twilight "l think you're right" he said simply, and the other two nodded.--New York Press.

THE ATLANTIC FLEET
IN THE COLONIES

The exhibit of pictures from the New
Zealand and the Australian papers. of
the reception to the Atlantic feet.
which were exhibited yesterday in the
windows of the Advertiser Office, at
traeted a great deal of attention. There
was crowd in front of them all day.
The extent of the preparations made
for the reception of the fleet, and the
warmth of the feeling of welcome
which the pictures evidenced, were a
surprise event to those who have read
the accounts. 1t is clear that our CO.
lonial brethren spread themselves in
the way of decoration of buildings and
streets, and in plans to entertain Off

HARRY WERNER GOES
AFTER CAMERAPHONE

Harry Werner who was connected
with the Empire moving picture show
until recently, leaves for the Coast to-
day. He win not be gone very long
however as his visit viii be entirely
on business.
Harry has bunch that he can get
the Hawaiian agency for the Camera
phone, the latest wonder in moving
picture specialties. This Cameraphone
not only shows the movements of the
actors but reproduces their voices by
means of synchronized monograph.
One sees the pictures of famous ac.
tors on the sheet and, at the same time,
coinciding with the movements of their
lips, the photograph reproduces their
voices. This new invention has made
great hit on the Coast and will Ger,
tainly do the same in Honolulu when
Harry returns with the goods.
Mr.. Werner has done well here with
the pictures he has put on in his little
house and he crowded the place with
the Passion Play pictures few weeks
ago. Everybody who likes to go to
moving picture shows must take their
hats off to him for the way in which
he has made good

LET WATER
WORKS CONTRACT
CITY COUNCIL ALSO PASSED Or
DINANCE CALLING FOR AN
ELECTION TO VOTE $4,000
BONDS.

The most important matters that
came up for consideration at the
meeting of the city council last night
was the letting of the contract on the
new water system, and the passing of
an ordinance providing for a special
election on December 20 for the pur-
pose of authorizing a bond issue of
$4,000.
The contract for the pumping plant
was awarded to Ball & McNerney at
a complete price of $2S,S25.35. This
lis inclusive of everything outside OF
the machinery, the contract for which
goes to the Elliott Bay Iron Works
of Seattle, at price of $500. The
latter firm was a very close competi-
tor of the successful firm, and it has
been known all week that it was a
contest between these firms and the
Awarding committee, Messrs. Hol-
comb, Bousquet and Buttles, with En-
gineer Zahren, went very carefully
over every phase of the bids in order
to determine which bid was the low
est for the city. The Elliott Bay Iron
Works representative insisted that
he had the lowest bid, and was rep
resented at the council meeting by
Attorney Thomas, who addressed the
council on the matter.
The successful bidders, Messrs. Ball
& McNerney, are now finishing up the
contract on the Cashmere plant, and
just as soon as they get their bond
icompleterd they will be ready to
start work here. The contract calls
for the filing of an approved bond,
both with the state and with the city,
for the amount of their bid, total
bond of about $50. 900. The contract
calls for the completion of the work
by May 15 Most of the work is such
that large crew of men may be en-
ployed, and it is the intention OF the
contractors to throw a large crew of
men on the job at once. possibly by
the last of the week.

B0ARDN|AN FOR
STATE PRINTER
MAN KNOWN HERE
AT OLYMPIA UNDER COVER.
NOR-ELECT COSGROVE.

1t has been announced that E. l..
Boardman is to be rewarded for faith
full service to Governor-Elect Cos
grove by his appointment to the office
o. state printer, one oe the latest
sinecures in the state. Governor
Mead is to make the appointment at
the request of Mr.. Cosgrove.
E. L. Boardman is known in this
city. He and Lynn w. Miller spent
several days in this city last fall,
when these men were trying to nego-
tiate the purchase of the Republic.
Governor Mead, at the st. Andrews
Society banquet at the Tacoma hotel
last evening, admitted that Mr.
Boardman was the choice of Cover
nor-Elect Cosgrove for the position
of state printer, but would not say
when the appointment would be
made. 1t is expected that the pres
ent printer, Charles w. Gorham, of
Snohomish, will hold until the new
term begins on January II and per-
haps later. Because Of the fact that
the public printing appropriation of
100000 has been exhausted Mr.. Cor
ham has extended his credit to the
state, and is printing the biennial re-
ports of state officers, depending on
the coming legislature to appropriate
for the work. For this reason it
is thought that he will be permitted
to hold until the legislature meets.
Mr. Boardman formerly conducted
a newspaper at Prosser, but is now

AHEAD Of TIME
ELECTOR LED INTO ERROR BY

FOR TRIP TO CARRY RETURNS

Frank Dallam, ST., one Of the Taft
electors chosen in November, was in
Olympia Monday in obedience to the
state law, which provides that elect
ors must assemble at the capital the
first Wednesday in December. He
learned after his arrival that exist
ing federal laws, which control, pro-
vide that the meeting of the electors
shall be held in January. Four years
ago some of the state electors fell
into the same error. 1t is understood
that Electors Trimble, Fish and Dali
lam have announced their wish to be
the elector selected to carry the re-
turns to Washington. Electors O'Don-
nell and Kerlee probably have SINH
lar ambitions. When it comes to a
vote it is likely the choice will be set,

into court, however, before anything
further can be done. The city also
has to pay it's proportion of the re-

balance of the 100000 which the
council desire to secure will be ex-
pended in general improvement work
