MORNING STAR A FREIGHTER

From the Seattle Post -lnteIlgenccr
AT Port Townsend, bound for Seattle. is
the famous schooner Moring Star, seventh
of the name. reduced from the ambitious
career of carrying the gospel to foreign
lands 10 carrying iron ore from British
Columbia to Irondale in the service OF
James a. Moore. OF Seattle. The Morning
Star will probably reach port to-day. as
she was delayed by fumigstlon at Dia-
mond Head Many a man who has sailed
in the South Seas will look on the little
schooner with interest. and recall soma OF
the incidents Of her career.
The first Morning Star was built early
in the nineteenth century by the Ameri-
can Board of Foreign Missions. Sne was
a sailing ship only; for the day Of aux
iliary power was then unknown. When
she was discarded another Morning Star
was purchased, and so on until the sew
enth Of the name formerly the Sunbeam,
set out on her career.
The present schooner has auxiliary
power. She has cruised for years among
the Gilbert. Caroline, Solomon, Hawaiian,
and Samoan islands. and visited nearly
every bit of dry land in the entire South
Seas. The vessel would take a load OF
knickknacks. hymn books. tracts. hair
pins and beads. and set out on a civiliz-
ing tour OF some remote palm-tree-shaded
coral reefs where dusky braves and dusky
bellies dwelt in careless and happy ig-
norsnce Of higher education and the prob
lem play. According to the stories told
By men who have sailed the South Seas
most of the hymn books and tracts were
turned into curl papers. the hnery was
put 20 weird uses In adorning the say-
ages, and as the sails Of the schooner
vanished in the blue haze of the horizon
the natives lapsed peaceably back TO their
barbarism. Resident missionaries of the
larger islands depended on the vessel for
their supplies.
In 1895 the Morning Star returned 10
Honolulu from the Gilbert Islands. For
the first time In nineteen years the cap
tain and his wife renewed their acouaint-
ance with civilization and took a steamer
for the States. The schooner became in
volved In litigation and finally. after ly-
ing idle many months. was sold to satisfy
numerous creditors and Mr.. Moore pur-
chased the vessel in Oakland.

Robert is the youngest member OF a
FAMILY which has grown up under a
strict homeopathic rule. A case Of medi-
cine furnishes a remedy for almost every.
trouble. and the children are as familiar
as their mother with the proper pills.
pellets. and tablets TO take in certain
emergencies.
Robert recently went TO his first Sun
day school Snd told his mother proudly
that the lesson concerned Moses and the
iron pills. His astonished mother ques-
toned and reduestioned her offspring.
with no other result than III was about
Moses and the iron pills
Some days latter the Sunday school
teacher was encountered. and ROb's
mother confessed her ignorance and asked
to be enlightened in regard TO that mys-
terious lesson.
The teacher smiled and said: ''The les

half OF the eighth, Moore making
home run, there being no rum

Both games Sunday were well
played and taken altogether
were somewhat better than any
games played on the local dia-
mond during this season. Lack
of team work had the visitors
handicapped some, but their in
ability to hit the ball at critical
times helped bring about their
defeat.
The attendance at the morning
game was very poor, the fans
evidently thinking that on ac-
count of the lateness of the trains
there would be no game. In the
afternoon the attendance was
fair but not near SO good as it
has been at many previous
games.
Gillette and Mattox umpired
both games and if the absence of
kicking by the players and roast
ing by the occupants of the grand
stand is any criterion the work
of the Jumps" must have been
exceptionally good.
The weather was all that could
be desired the day being cloudy
and warm there being every in.
dicatian of rain during the day
