MYRTLE POINT ITEMS.
The board of directors of the fruit
glowers association hold a meeting
in Myrtle Point Tuesday to advance
the interest of the association. They
are studying up their duties with the
object of giving the fruit growers the
best possible service and hope to
show tbeadvantages of the associa
tion to some extent this season.
C. L. Bender writes from Portland
of a serious time he has been having.
An operation was' performed on his
ear some three weeks ago. Three
doctors did tho work and it was fear
ed that he would not get up from the
operating table, where he was kept
for four hours, and eight hours under
an anaesthetic. Mr. Bender thinks,
however, he will prove "too tough"
for the medics, and is rapidly re
covering. He was at St. vincem a
hospital two weeks Ho will require
treatment for three or four weeks
longer and then hopes to bo home.
LEFT BIG FORTUNE.
PORTLAND, March 20. R. R.
Thompson, the pioneer steamboat
man of Portland, who died in San
Francisco last week, left a fortune es
timated at $4,000,000. The nucleus
of his fortune was acquired in oper
ating the steamers owned by the Ore
gon Steam Navigation Company, In
which Mr. Thompson was the second
largest stockholder, Captain J. C.
Alnsworth, the president of the com
pany, being tho largest. Mr. Thomp
son's estate consists largely of San
Francisco real estate, corporation
and .bonds, 'and will ho divided
among six children.
"Something new" in either home
or office furniture means no more
room and no more use for tho "old
things" the things that were serv
ing 'you only the other day. AND
THIS ALWAYS MEANS ''MORE

WASHINGJAY AFLOAT
When the Sailor Lads In the Navy
Turn Laundrymen.
A HARD JOB IN BAD WEATHER
Each Man, With His Feet and Legs
Bare, Scrubs His Own Clothes and
Gets Thorn Ready For Inspection.
"Jimmy Legs" and the "Lucky Bag."
Have ypu ever noticed how clean and
well dressed a sailor lad looks, when
on shore leave, how white his clothes
look when you board tho, ship on vis
iting days? But did you ever realize
that he was his own washerman?
With a shrill blast of his silver whis
tle the chief boatswain's mate will
pipe, "Scrub and wash clothes!" nr.d
ecry man hurries to his bucket, gets
his soiled clothes, salt water soap
draws a bucket of briny or fresh a
ter, as tho case may be, and begins his
washing.
Ho is generally bnrefootcd at this
time, so that ho will not wet his shoes
nnd stockings. Ho wears his trouscis
very bell shaped at the bottom in order
that he may rol them up over the
knee.
After scrubbing nnd rubbing his
clothes until clean he turns them in
side out nnd with "stops" procpeds to
get them ready for hanging up.. These
stops are short pieces of twine, twisted
and with whipped ends, that bo uses
in lieu of clothespins. They are fas
tened in eyelets placed at the side
seams and bottom of his shirts and the
waistband of his trousers, np turns
nil his washed clothes Inside out to
prevent tho right side getting soiled.
They aie then hung .on n lino which,
says the Youth's Companion, is run
from tho bow to, the topmast or upper
top of a. fighting mast The well In
formed man now usually' puts his
clothes to soak the night before in a
bucket half full of water into which
ho has either sprinkled a handful of
soap powder or a small piece of salt
water soap. In the morning i a little
rubbing and his clothes are.clpan and
hung up, while the "landlubber" has
Just begun.
When they have been thoroughly
dried, the chief boatswain again pipes,
"Scrub nnd -wash clothes!" aid every
man rushes for the clothesline to
claim his own.. It he falls to secure
them within a reasonable tjme, tho
master at arms, or "Jimmy Legs,"
takes them down, and they go, into tho
"lucky bag." Then the only (recourse
the unlucky owner has Is to go to tho
mast, or the "stick," as the court on
board ship is commonly called, and pe
tition the "first luff," or executive offi
cer, to order them released.
As a rule, Jimmy Legs, who has
charge of the cleanliness of the decks,
always has extra cleaning, , painting offender, to the secretary of tho ex
and so forth In mind, nnd the man change, who shall, then send it to tba
whose clothes get Into the lucky bag
receives so many hours' extra duty as
a gentle reminder to be morp careful
In the future, nis nnme goes on Jim
my Legs' time book, and when there
Is any extra labor to be performed he
is called upon to assist
This Is usually the lot of the "lands
man" who has not been aboard long
enough to "learn the ropes."
After they are taken from, the line
the stops are taken out and tho clothes
rolled in such a manner that jthey need
no, ironing. These rolls aro .then tied
at' each end with the stops and aro
stowed away In the clothes bag. In
this way all his clothes, both blue and
white, are kept clean, and when Sun
day morning comes and there is gen
eral inspection on the quarter deck he
has no fear of being reprimanded for
having on a soiled uniform.
The hardest things of a sailor's outfit
to wash aro his blanket and hammock.
The hammock forms part of his equip
ment, but belongs to the ship. He Is,
however, required to keep it clean.
His mattress and blanket aro lashed
Into tho hammock and stowed In the
nettings or crates provided for that
purpose.
Every day a couple or more men are
detailed, to stow them away and at
night to break them out It is this
handling so much that gets them fear
fully dirty, especially while a ship is
coaling. Wheu washing his hammock,
a sailor lays it flat on the deck nnd
uses a wire brush to get it clean, with
the assistance of soap and lots of "el
bow grease."
In visiting a foreign port and before
the ship has come to anchor it will be
surrounded by "bumboats," generally
bringing out washerwomen, who are
usually upgrcsses and who clamor for
any work In the laundry Une. They
dot good work and chaige very little
for it They always show their refer
ences from tho last ship and always
want a new one to add to their already
long list
It is In wot and Btormy weather that
tho sailor has his own troubles trying
to dry his clothes. Roun3 tho uptakes
of the smokestack there is a drying
room in which clothes may be hung,
bqt as they grow yellowish when hung
there often thio room is used as little
as possible. In the newer men-of-war
there are Installed washing qnd drying
machines which greatly facilitate tho
laundry Work, making it inexcusable
for a sailor to have soiled clothes.
This machine, which dries clothes by
centrifugal motion, does tho work rap
idly and well.
These machines, which are being
added fo all the notv ships, will in
time do awaywith all handiwork. The
old familiar sight of a Jong line of
clothes strung- ram bow to masthead
will no longer be seen, and1 the boat
iwaln'n mate will forgot how to pipe,
Scrutianfl, waan clothes!"
