Hie Yankee Laundretsee Can't Wath Shlrte and er. New York Tlmee. The treasury department has had be fore It a new problem for which there le no provision In the customs regula tions. An Irtahman In Virginia has written a letter to the eecretary com plaining that he has had no luck what ever with his laundry work In that state, and wants to send his linen regu larly to "old Ireland" to be washed by "women folks" who know how to wash and Iron properly. The matter was at first taken to be a joke and a polite letter was written to the complainant saying that there was no precedent for sending clothes out of the country to be washed, and the brodlng Buddana of the customs serv ice were therefore loath to pass upon what appeared on the face of it to be wholly a hypothetical question. This proved wholly Ineffective to quiet the Irishman, and he came back with another letter eaylng that the government was very much mistaken If the assumption was that he waa toy ing with a hypothetical question. He really wanted to send his clothes home every month or two to the old sod to be washed, and he would like to have a ruling that he should not be bothered with customs duties. The department studied the problem, and finally replied that there was no law to prevent the applicant from send ing his clothes to Ireland to be washed, and If he would state to the cllector of the port whence they were sent that they were to be taken to Ireland to be washed, and would undergo no change thereby In character or quality, they would pass duty free. r 1 I "X jC'nJ " EST T0I3 In S.

One, and possibly two, fast passen ger and freight steamers for the As toria and Ban Francisco route, to a slat the Columbia and the Elder, are among the contemplated Improvements to the Ilarrlman water service along the Pacific coast. Official announce ment of this Important adltlon to Astoria's coastwise shipping facilities Is expected as soon as General Man ager fkbwerln returns from the east It la announced that the owners of the smaller steamers, who have been profiting by the overflow from the 0, It a K. steamers, expect the offi cial announcement of the addition at an early date. It Is also believed that the advent of the new steamers will lead to a rate war that will be gigantic In Its proportions. Thus far but few of the smaller coasting steamers have made much of an attempt to cut in on the passen ger business, the Alliance, which touches at way ports being about the only one that does much in this line, and the most of her passenger travel cornea from the way ports. Travel by ea in spite of the dlacomfort is still very popular with a certain percentage of the traveling public, and Is Increas ing. It Is expected that the tourist travel next year will be much greater than ever, and many of the visitors to the Lewis and Clark fair, who come out from the east, will take advantage of the ocaalon, either coming or go ing, to enjoy the ocean trip between Portland and San Francisco. With a fast boat and good accommodations this could be made a very popular trip. and while the Harrlman steamship line would to a certain extent be running opposition to the Hani man railroad. the business and development of the country has reached a stage where a service of this kind la demanded. As a considerable portion of the freight that was bandied by the steam ers came into Portland over the Har rlman lines, It would have been a com paratively easy matter for the O. R. A N. Co. to route It through to San Francisco by Its own steamers had they not been running full to the hatches all the time. Not all of the freight that originates in this territory can be con trolled by the O. R. A N. Co, no mat ter how many boats It places on the route, but If a good fast steamer Is added to the present service, it would undoubtedly cause the retirement of some of the mosquito fleet now plying on the route. Just at present all of the steamers On the Pacific coast are profitably em ployed, but periodical dull seasons come and In the past the Portland-San Fran cisco route has always offered the beat opening for steamers that have been crowded out of other fields. It is un doubtedly to forestall opposition of this nature that the O. R. A N. Is arrang hit to take car of all the business that it can secure here. As the need of the boat or boats Is very urgent. It Is thought that a ready-built craft will be purchased in preference to wait ing until a new one. could be construct'. ed. Shipping business on the Atlantic Is not so good as on the Paclflo, and there Is nearly always an opportunity to buy a good steamer at a reasonable figure; In fact Portland ship brokers ottered them within the past few daya, none of which, however, were large enough or fast enough to meet tho re quirements of the 0. R. ife N. service on the San Francisco route. Facts of IntereeL A very remarkable caee of auto matic whistling following brain in jury occurred some time ago In Buffa lo, The caae wan that of a Polish la borer employed In the ast Buffalo s'pek yards. He waa found one morn ing lying unconscious beside the rail road track, having evidently been struck by a passing train. He was cormlderably cut up, but the chief In jury was a depressed fracture of the skull, situated three Inches above and one Inch behind the left ear. The skull was Immediately re phlned, the depreaned bone removed, and he was put to bed, and seemed to be doing welt although he remained unconscious. About 10 o'clock that night he suddenly began to whlittle the whistling calls he was accustomed to use In handling the cattle in the yards. He would continue whistling for about a minute, and then stop for five or ten minutes. He kept this up for regular Intervals until he died four days later . The whisUlng was pitched always in the same key, and at no time could any melody be die tin gulshed. It was audible over the whole hospital ward, and attracted the attention of every one about U was Impossible to arouse the man at any lime after the accident and he re mained entirely unconscious to the end and whistled until a few minutes before he died.

Pointed Paragraphs. Chicago News. When a man Is in the right he can afford to remain silent One Idea of Hades Is a place where every man Is allowed to boas. There Is no hope for a conceited man who boasts of his mistakes. Some men would rather put up a weak argument than furnish strong proof. When the stage heroine tells the vil lain to do hla worst he usually acts that way. Shortly after going on a sympathetic strike a man begins to strike his friends for a dollar. When some men drop a nickel In the contribution plate they figure on get ting a through ticket to glory In exchange. Every man makes a start in the race for the almighty dollar, but at the finish he Is apt to find his name among those who "ateo ran." 8H0WING THE WAY. Convention Convened. Niagara Fals, N.

Clyde Fitch may not be the fore moMt American dramatist, but he is certainly the most prolific, and the most successful- at least, from the commer clal standpoint. He produces five or six plays every year, and rarely does he score a failure. More of his plays are being presented today than of any other dramatist, alive or dead. One out of every six or seven of our more prominent actors is apearing In a Fitch play. Not a billboard In the country but is plastered with a poster announc lng one of his plays, at least two or three times "a season. These things spell success, In big letters. They mean royalties, In a steady and constantly Increasing stream; for as soon as a tar discards a play. It is snapped up by road companies, If it was a success, and then goes to the stock companies, so that it continues to earn money for its author for years after its first pro duction. 5 Far more than any living playwright Clyde Fitch understands the art of pleasing the public. He Is not ham pered by any difficult ideals. His play1 must Interest must hold the attention of the audience from the first word to the last must arouse discussion, awak en curiosity. Beyond this nothing. Clyde Fitch wrote hla first play, pro fessionally, In 1889, when he produced Beau Brummer for Richard Mans field. Since then he has worked assid uously, and has a score of successes to hla credit And he is yet under 40! Small wonder that the name of Fitch is talismanlc in the theatrical world- Pacific Monthly for Junee. Correct Clothes for Men APPY the man who Knows the value of correct ness and econ omy in 'dress.
