Bobby's converse ton in that direction.

SPECIAL Seat
TIE LETTER

Seattle, July 2.-Steamship men
threaten to raise the rates on flour
to the Orient. They claim that the
present 81 rate does not allow them
anything for profit or does not even
insure them against loss. A dollar
or a dollar and half advance in
the rate may be expected this fall.
The continued absence of rain
throughout the state is playing ha-
voc with the crops. The official es-
Inmates of this years yield place
the production of wheat as at 60
per cent below last seasons yield.
These estimates were based on OBJ
servatiOns made up to July /, and
the fact that the weather remains
dry since that date except in isolated
cases means that even these low esti-
mates will be cut down somewhat.
Spring wheat is the greatest suf-
ferer as 1t has received very little
moisture since it was sown.
State Bank Examiner A. w. Engle
has issued a statement showing the
condition of the state banks at the
close of business on May IA. The
showing is one with which the state
has every reason to feel satisfied.
The people have nearly fifty million
dollars on deposit in State banks.
There was over ten million dollars
in the vaults of the bank. The
statement did not give comparisons
with previous years.
The city has decided to purchase
Leschi and Madrona parks from the
Seattle Electric company. Most Wis
itors to the city are familiar with
these beauty spots on the shores of
Lake Washington. AS they will be
on the line of the extensive boule-
varding system which the city is lay
ing out, it was thought necessary
that the city should own them. Sc
attic is gradually acquiring one of
the finest park system in the cOun-
try.
The New Washington Hotel, the
building of which is practically COM
pleted, will be opened October 1.
The state as a whole will have rea-
son to be proud of this handsome
and commOdiOus hotel which will
rank among the finest on the con-
tinent.
Work started last week on the
California building at the exposition
grounds, and bids were called for
for the construction of the Washing
ton State building. The exposition
is more nearly completed thus far
before the opening than was any ex-
position yet held in America. The
Washington state building will ,be
an exceedingly handsome structure.
A short time ago the Salvation
Army opened free medical dispen-
sary in this city. Up to date three
applications have been made to it
for free medicine. This indicates
that there are no poor in Seattle or
that the poor are not sick, or, if
they are sick, that hey are too

ARTISTIC TASTE.
In This the French Are First and the
Irish Come Next.

In This the French Are First and the
Irish Come Next.
Artistic taste Is due to temperament.
and where this exists the simplest ma
teriafs lend themselves to artistic COM
binations and beautiful effects.
The French excel In dainty. graceful
designs because of their volatile. mirth
loving temperaments. The Germans
can never reach these heights because
their temperaments are Just the re-
verse. while it has been proved in sew
eral workrooms that, next to the
French, the Irish temperament Is the
most artistic.
The more artists the general train
ing OF q person the more reedy are
they to appreciate and profit BY the
fne productions of others: hence We
are glad to see and grateful for the
privilege Of studying the models"
brought from Paris each season by the
enterprising importers.
Twenty-Five years ago in Paris and
London the houses that catered to
America and the colonies put aside for
this trade any designs that were too
extreme or screaming for the fastid-
ious home buyers. says the Millinery
Trade Review. But times have changed.
and the American woman is now con-
sidered the best dressed in the world.
and the leaders Of American society
are the women who dictate quite as
much as the elite of France.

Kept Them All en- EGqe.

One of the favorite devices of Lord
Nelson when ships were cruising in
company was to signal to given
craft that Lieutenant Smith or Staff
Engineer Brown or Captain of Ma
rines Jones was to take charge, on the
assumption that all his superior Of
ficers on board had been put out Of
action. The author Of Trafalgar Re-
fought says that the result was very
good. for no one knew when he might
be called upon to take command. and
every one therefore made point Of
trying to make himself At to carry
out the duty should it ever be assigned
to him.

CHAPTER xxxIx. A EorIorn Hone.

The great hall had quickly filled with ladies and gentlemen. Mary Tudor and rapidly approached the dais, holding out one gracious hand to Wessex, and vouchsafing but a cold, callous look to Ursula Glynde, who like sofe young, wounded lawn seem ed to be standing at bay, facing this crowd of indifferent spectators who had literally come between her and her happiness.
 It seemed as if Mary felt a cruel delight in bringing before the young girls notice the hopelessnes of her position, the Responsibility of the breach which existed now between her and His Gracs of Wessex.
 The Queens jealous eyes had al ready the cold salutation with which Wessex so readily left Ursula's side. in order to turn to the newcomers. His Grace was evidently glad to see the end of a painful interview, and Mary was too weak a woman not to reiolce at the sight of the heartache which was expressed in Ursula's pal lid face. and not to try to enhance the pain of the wound.
 Therefore, when Wessex respectfully kissed her hand. she kept him close beside hert whispering tender words which she hoped her rival might hear,

.MR. WALLACE WILL SPEAK
 TO MISSISSIPPI LEGISLATURE

That the Wallace game law is rapid- fly becoming known throughout the nation is indicated by the volume of correspondence which it's author, Hon. John H. Wallace. IT,. is carrying on with the authorities of other States, in which was included yesterday an invitation from the Mississippi Legis- Iature to address that body on Monday. February 24.
 The Alabama Game and Fish Com missioner accepted this invitation and will make his address on the subject of game laws and game protection.
 A bill has been introduced in the Legislature of Mississippi now In ses- sion at Jackson which calls for prac- tically the same protection of game as ia offered by the law now In force in Alabama.
 It will be recalled that similar in- vitatfon was extended MT. Wallace by the Floriea Legislature last summer when the Alabama Commissioner ap- peared before the solons of that state and was accorded an ovation at the coucfusion of his address.
 The impression seems to be that HFississippi will enact Into law the salient features of the Wallace game law.

 ----s----- Csnmissioner of AEriculture wirI<inson says All Delegates Were Piauea at tAetion--rolitical Intrigue
 as Reases.

--On has return to Montgomery from Tampa, Fla, where he attended the Southern Immigration Conference, State Commissioner of Agriculture T. A. Wil- kfnson said that the keynote of the gathering was the exercise of States rights in the selection of immigrants to their borders. This was expressed in resolutions introduced by Commis- sioner Wilkinson and passed unani- mously. 44A
 Another important feature of MT. Wilkinson's resolution, which was adopted, was declaration in favor of each State of the South extending a North and West to the exclusion of the undesirable immigrant from abroad.
 Commissioner Wilkinson expresses indignation at the action of Governor Broward of Florida, at whose invitation the delegates from the different States went to the conference. Mir. Wilkin- son said yesterday the action of the Flerida5 GoveSnof in retiring from the convention after delivering his address of welcome was severely criticised by the delegates. He does not hesitate to say the delegates were ptQued at what they called a lack of hospitality in tn e Florida Executive. who did not pre- sent himself at the gathering after the address.

Wilkinson yesterday. ssFEls remarks were not we'll received b6eause he insisted that the South should lay aside what he called our peonage practices, or we would not get any immigrants worth having. It was the sense of the delegates, so far as I could find out, that if the Southern States were to handle the immigration problem successfully, they would exer- else thesr own rights as sovereigns in choosing tn immigrants.
 a--sWe were told that the South might a,at her share of the million and a quarter foreign immigrants that come to our shores annually. We, in our resolutions, answered this that we wanted the tide turned through the southern ports so that our agents could pick out the deairables and not seek the scum which is left after they f1fer through the Eastern .nlets."
 The other members of the Alabama delegation have also returned from Tampa.
