UNEARTHED LITERATURE OF UNDERWORLD SOME PECUULIAR CODES DEM ONSTRATED, AND HUMOR OUS WITHAL. OCEAN, BAR, BAY, DOCK AND RIVER Work upon the sunken oil barg. Ma 91. in the lower harbor, has not progressed s satisfactorily as Cap tain Daniel and Stannard have de sired but the arrival down yesterday of the steamer Diamond O, with a Urge and one of the biggest and best f the Standard Oil Company' pump ing otufits, relieved the situation some, and the day was spent in attaching and setting up the apparatus, and it was gotten to work last evening, but with just what success has not been ascertained owing to the lateness oi the hour of getting it started. At all events the big barge is not as badly off as before the Maverick undertook the work of pumping her out, and, was rising slowly yesterday, and it is hop ed to clear the four tanks yet intact and put her practically upon an even keet, or in such shape as to permit her being towed to the nearest dry dock. The big pumps attached yester day it is said threw a stream eight inches in diameter, of water; bat what it is doing with the heavy oil is yet to be learned. The Chirles R. Spencer arrived down yesterday on her new schedule yesterday, with 24 people in her ca bins and a grist of local freight. While ere Captain Charles R. Spencer, not ing the death of "Chief Spencer" of the Klickitats. over on the Sound, framed up a postal card of condol ence to his father, Captain E. W. Spencer, of Portland, commiserating with'him on the "loss of his grand father." The steamer Diamond O came down the river yesterday morning with a barge load of gravel for the cement makers at Fort Stevens, and incidentally she brought a powerful pumping outfit for use on the Stand ard's submerged oil barge.

May 18.-0 f all the literature and lore of the underworld m.rartli.-.l from time to time by the inolice. a naive code of instructions i in the uentlc art of safe-cracking i holds at least a near-record for brawn . . . ,'. ... i--. vft hiimoriMis. ortciliaiuy. ine msi 'contribution of Yc'ggmart Bell's let 'trr reads like a sheet from a cor re nondet)ce school on "how to blow !a safe." It was found last night in the rooms of an energetic individual i in the Bronx, recorded in the Rogues Gallery as No. 500. He was detained in the hope that he may explain a re- .tit robbery. His treasured docu ment says among other things: "The knight of the road should know his book in order to keep abreast of the . . . .. times. I can give you a general knowledge of all the different kinds of safes, their platings, paddings, etc. so that once you have a practical idea of how to blow one you are there all right. The "burglar-proof safe is the simplest going in the world to get to. They are generally made with an oval tumbler, but the bolt is so constructed that you can't do it on the quiet." Here follows a line of instructions on "How to Insert the Dope." and "How to Get into a Safe." It advises against going through the back, as it is likely to be of solid material with out packing and the contents of the safe may be blown up with the ex plosion. The foregoing is but sample. Before concluding the writer gives minute details as to the nien1isritv nf safes, the amount of i j explosives to use and other valuabls hints that no up-to-date burglars library should be without.

He was so small and looked idiotic." The young woman i 15 years old- He had on a mask and when he look ed up he said in a disguised voice 'I want money.' " 'Really,' I answered. " 'If yon don't give me some. I'll shoot you,' he threatened. "Mother doesn't allow me to re ceive strangers alone o I started up stairs saying 'I haven't any money, so you'll have to excuse me.' He cam after me and I said 'Maybe the maid has some.' The maid said she had five cents. He said he would cut off her hand if she didn't give the five cent to him. She handed him the nirl-rt. Then tin went down the stairs and out of the front door.

I Scirbaf hsaw remmus ni sely ts tsetal. If you can't read the above call at WASHINGTON, May 18-Rep-rssentative Kendall of Iowa yester day presented to the House in the shape of a bill his ideas in regard to the desirable labor legislation. The bill provides that no restraining order or injunction shall be issued in labor disputes unless the order or injunction shall be clearly necessary to prevent such irreparable injury to property rights as cannot be adequately redres sed by law and then only after pre vious written notices ot tne appiica tion shall have been served on the person cited as the party to be re strained or enjoined and who, it i provided, shall have due opportunity to aooear and answer. The bills also restrict labor unions from the opera tion of the Sherman anti-trust law bv providing that no agreement between two or more persons or between parties involving the terms or condit ions of employment, shall be held to constitute a conspiracy unless the act or thing to be done or not done, would be unlawful on the part of any individual. The Human Appetite. Of all the whimsical, shifting, unre liable, treacherous, exacting things 'n the world, the human appetite for the right thing to eat is, perhapi, the most unreasonable and Imperious. There are those who humor it; oth er who defy it; and all men are more or les inclined to treat H with con sideration. To find a place where these varying attitudes may be fos tered, at the least cost in each case, and yet keep the appetite in proper and peaceful subjection, is alwayi desirable information. One place that is conceded as perfectly adapted t this, is the Palace Restaurant, just opposite the Page building, on Com mercia! street, in this city. Try t once, and oatronize it always: thst is the rule of the Palace. The very best board to be obtained 111 the city is at I he Ucciaent Hotel." Rates very reasonable. Ninth and Commercial Sts.
