Chicago and" 22 rolls of matting for IiOgansport, Ind. There were 21 cases of curios for this port, as well as 18 cases of panerware and 146 cases of china ware. Of the latter there were 55 cases for Chicago and 5 cases of paperware were consigned to Seattle. Other Im portant Items are. 167 tubs of camphor for Hoston, 567 tubs of camphor for New Tork, 6 cases of refined camphor for Port land and 1572 bags of sulphur for Port land. The balance of the cargo consisted of Japanese provisions and pickles, gun nies and about H cases of spices and coffee for local merchants. The Numantia began discharging yes terday and will be given as quick dis patch as possible. It is hardly possible that she will finish In time to clear dur ing the present month, but her outward cargo will make a good starter for March. The steamer was 20 days making the trip cross from Japan and heavy weather was encountered all the way. When the Numantia came alongside the dock the usual number of runners were on hand to board the vessel and solicit for various firms. For the first time in years permission to board the ship was refused them. There is an old law which prohibits persons from boarding foreign vessels without the permission of the master until the ship has formally been turned over to the customs officers of the district and has been made fast at a permanent berth. Iately it has been de cided to enforce this rule rigidly. COOK AND SAILORS DISAGREE Crew of Undine Kefuse to Turn To Until "Doctor" Leaves. Trouble between deckhands and the cook on the steamer Undine delayed that steamer for several hours yesterday. Members of the crew complained of the manner In which food was served to them and refused-to turn to until the matter was rectified. The result was that the cook went ashore and the crew returned to duty. The main complaint of the men was that they were given the same bill of fare from one week's end to another. There was plenty of food and good, but the same menu day after day became tiresome and as the cook failed to change It they took the matter in their own hands. Tnrgot Will Sail in Ballast. Captain Gerxay, of the French bark Turgot. has received orders to proceed to Sydney for orders in ballast. The vessel will be ready to sail by the end of the week'. The French bounty law makes It possible for a ship to sail a few thousand miles in ballast and not be on the wrong side of the ledger at the nd of the voyage. The Turgot came to Portland In cement for R. P. Fuller & Co. and was on the market for an out ward charter. Nothing offered and her owners decided that bounty was better than lying idle. Galena will Be Floated. William Shute, Jr.. representing the owners of the wrecked bark Galena, re turned yesterday from Clatsop spit, where he has been surveying the vessel. Mr. Shute states that an effort will be made to float the craft as soon as the weather nettles sufficiently to permit steady work. Mr. Shute was accompanied by Captain J. McGashen, an expert wrecker, of Lon don, who will have entire charge of the floating- of the Galena. The work will be done by contract. Ileta Newman Is Safe. SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 23.

Smith, of Redlands, California, who conducted services In Taylor-street Methodist Church and the White Temple last PLEA FOR BUILDING FUND Work of Associations Justifies Ex penditure. PORTLAND, Feb. 23. (To the Editor.) Every movement or organization which tends to better conditions for women, higher educational facilities for the am bitious, amelioration and assistance In life's sordid grind for others; any organi sation which works from these two points of view, from no motives of per sonal aggrandizement, are more than edu cational and philanthropic centers. For the woman who has developed her brain power by education and the morally chaste woman are the pivots around which grows up a socially law-abiding community; it is the woman's subtle In fluence which makes or mars the man who goes abroad from the home. Consequently, as the home is the back bone of the city, state and Nation, arid It Is the woman who creates the home, lt behooves every community to uphold, to regard it as their bounden duty as well as pleasure to) assist in a move ment which In the light of reason ceases to be personal philanthropy and at once assumes the more august proportions of municipal betterment and public welfare. Following this line of reasoning still further. Institutions working on these lines free from corruption and graft, with no higher ambition than the uplifting of their fellow creatures and no newer way of doing it than the old one laid down by the Master in Galilee such associa tions would not seem to be asking too much If they even aspired to Govern ment aid In their projects. For Is not the body more than raiment, and is not the moral welfare of the citizen worth as much as his physical surroundings? Well paved, well lighted streets are mu nicipal affairs and excellent things, but greater than these are the men and women who tread them in the battle of life. I have learned authoritatively that the states of New Tork and Massachusetts each devote annually around $120,000 In philanthropic work among women and girls, recognising that such sums spent are protection to themselves, as the fa mous Kan Patterson trial cost the state about $40,000. H. B. Claflin & Co., in their great sys tem of department stores in Buffalo. New Tork and other cities, have found it to their interest to employ a woman so cial secretary, to circulate among their hundreds of female employes, get In touch with them, listen to their personal troubles, their grievances, advise them, comfort them, assist them in many ways, even entertain them now and then by throwing open the employee dining-room for a lecture or social evening; In fact, acting as a big sister to all the girls in her shop. 60 beneficial has this Claflin concern found this innovation that now each shop under their name has its own social secretary. The Larkln soap factory In New Tork City employs an extension secretary of the T. W. C. A. of that city who gives her entire time to the girls, organizing clubs among congenial groups, getting girls Interested in class work, and caring for the sick; she alos becomes the per sonal friend of any girl who so desires it. In Chicago also there Is an extension sec retary of the T. W. C. A. who Is looking; into the needs of waitresses In restau rants and hotels. In the City of Troy. N. I, there. are some 10.000 young women collar and cuff makers who have formed themselves Into an association for young women; Inde pendently and by their own endeavors they now own three buildings worth some 350,0001 itWs good to hear of all these move ments, these reachtnga out of women from the toiling for their dally bread into the educational, ethical and spiritual life; this ever grasping out after the higher, the Ideal, the Christ-like. To help to blend the Ideal and spiritual with the practical is the work which is being done by the Toung Women's Chris tton Association over the land today. To aid and protect the stranger girl, to assist the ambitious, eager for learning) there are educational classes with, tuitional rates so low as to be within reach of all; to stimulate the social side there are the Sunday at-homes, and, above all, there are the secretaries with sympathetic hearts and open arms, ever ready to listen and to advise the women who come in trial or trouble. It is to carry on this noble work more extensively that the association is appeal ing to the public for help today, to com plete the fund needed for their estab lishment in a permanent building of their own. Surely there Is no nob!erjurpose in life than the rendering assistance to our fel low creatures. It is the practical work ing out of the Golden Rule. It appeals to all that is highest and best in us; con sequently I feel that help will come from even unexpected sources it must surely do so when the object Is good. So I say to the committees of workers. In John Burrough's words: "Serene I fold my hands and wait. Nor care for wind, nor tide, nor sea; I rave no more 'gainst time or fate. For lo, my own shall come to me. The stars come nightly to the sky; The tidal wave unto the sea; Nor time, nor space, nor deep, nor high. Can keep my own away from- me." EVELYN SPENCBH, Manager T. W.
