"Our Strategists," at Fisher's theater, before a fair-sized audience. The many funny situations In the play were well brought cut, the company being a very good one, for a popular priced com. blnatlon. Mr. George Noble, as Jack But- ledge, the chief strategist, was very good, as was also Kit Wilson, as Pat O'Flamm. and Barton Booth, as Hev. M.lman. One of the best features of the performance was the music rendered by the Noble Deputy Fish Commissioner Cathcart returned to th city Sunday with th pa. tMl boat Juneau. Near Rainier last week he confiscated 400 pound of salmon, Acting under Instructions from Commbj. loner MoOuIr. Mr. Cttthoart proceeded to Portland, where he offered th fish for ale at public auction. Owing to ths scarcity of salmon, th blddtnn was splr Itevl, and the salmon netted $,V, being sold for 13 cents a pound. On th. trip down the river no Illegal tlshlng was unnerved. the fishermen having learned of the In. tenltcn of the commissioner to strictly enforeo the law, Mr, Cathearl wn at his oftlee yesterday and during the day Issued a numer of license. He left last night for lVrtlatul on oftVlal business. The Itrltlsh steamship Monmouthshire arrived Sunday mornlnir from the Orient vU Honolulu after ait uneventful pass. age.

The Mon mouthshire brings S.lsJ packages of merchandise, principally silks. consigned to eastern cities. She has liM) sacks Of simar for Astoria. which will be dls. charged at Portland and shlpx'd back to this city. She had a large passenger list of Chinese and Japanese.

IVllaven, a returning I tilted Stall's soldier frim Manila, su also a pa.-wengcr. The Monmouthshire left up for Portland at once. There is trouble In s:ore for the bl. cycle commission. Already the kickers are grumbling at the license which the new charier authorises the commission to levy, and some even go so far aa to assert that they will go to Portland to secure licenses, the amount In that county being only $1 .5. Whether this scheme to beat the law a III sucvesafuUy operate, or whether the commission will devise wuys and means to collect li cense taxes from the belligerents, Is an cpen question. The Idea of the bicycle tax Is to build tt bicycle path, nn.l U Is not nlaln how a cyclist can conscientious, ly refuse to pay the Ux.

On mo tion of Secretary Lyman, the president, Mr. S'-herneekau and F. W. Newell were appointed a commltte" to take charge of tho matter.
