PAQfi SIX. ASTORIA, OREGON, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 12. JEROME WILL CLOSE HOUSE New York's Famous District At torney Will Give Up Res idence in Ghetto. WAS MECCA OF FOREIGNERS Desire of Younger Lawyers to " Move to Old Haunts Up Town Mntle Expense of Keeping Up House Too Iiavy. New Tork. Oct. It District Attor ney William Trovers Jerome will, it Is announced, soon five up his residence in Reutgers street, bringing to an end the novel experience he inaugural ei uixn assuming office on January 1, 1902. " The house Mr. Jerome has occupied Is an old, famous mansion In the heart of the Ghetto. His idea in going there was to afford the lower classes of the east side protection, famillarUa them with the functions of the district attor ney's office and aid them in clearing out many undesirable resMeiiM. He continued to maintain his usual coun try homes for his family, but made the Reutgers street house a sort of of fice, many of his assistants taking np their quarters there, sharing in the expense. The house quickly became a mecca, for all the foreign elements of the east 'side in, their multiudinous troubles and the functions of the dis trict attorney's office were soon well known in all sections. A desire upon the iart of the young er lawyers to return to their accus tomed atmosphere up town has gad ually drawn them away and left the entire expense to fall upon the district attorney and his secretary. Having accomplished his original idea, there- tor, he has decided to close up house on the first of next year.

He wants to see everything he does and everything he makes and I must admit that these little "Yankees of the East" are by far the most interesting people at the ex position. It is hard to think of them shelling Port Arthur and pounding the Cxar's army out of its boots, so gentle, unobtrusive and mild-mannered are they. Not content with occupying a large poritlon of each exhibit palace with the products of their skill and in dustry they have thrown in this ex hibit on the hill for good measure. Passing through the great carved wooden gates we sat down in a nearby tea house to rest and to drink some Formosa tea served by the Little Japa nese maidens who, Jane says, "are Just too cute for anything." T. A D. A Love Letter. They See the Queen's Jubilee Pres entsNothing Queen Could Use. St. Louis, pet 11. "The poor, dear old queen five million dollars' worth of presents, and not a thing she could use. Not even a sofa pillow to lay her head on; not even a pair of com fortable carpet-slippers for her tired feet," This was Jane's comment after look Ing over Queen Victoria's Jubilee pres ents which are displayed in 25 large glass cases on the upper floor of the hall of congresses. She doubtless ex pected to see an array of sugar spoons, salad forks, clocks, card-trays, linen napkins and other useful things such as are commonly bestowed upon the brides of our town. John thought they "might have given her a manicure set or autograph album, Just to make her think of old times." But , here are over 400 presents, from the queen's subjects in her colo nies, and not one of them of any use except a sumptuous carved Ivory chair, the gift of the Maharajah of Travan core. The chair is valued at $250,000 and yet I doubt if the queen ever sat in it. The other presents consist large ly of silver and sandalwood caskets, richly carved and many of them inlaid with ivory. Many of them are cylin drical in shape and doubtless contain ing scrolls of parchment upon which the queen's subjects wrote their felici tations and good wishes. A particu larly costly and beautiful casket came from the Sardar Edaljl Khurshedji Motti and the Parsi Community of Surat One naturally wonders why the Sardar and the Parsi Community didn't send an automobile coat . or a necklace of pearls or something real awelL . There are caskets galore from Alla habad, the De wan of Palanpur Assam, the Maharaja of Orcba, the Rajah Qf Bobblli In Vizagapatam, Madras, and a whole lot of Indian rajas and prin ces. There are also royal saddles and elephant tusks. The Indian rajas and princes meant well, but someone should have passed the word. around not to make any more caskets or music cases. The two swarthy British offlc ers who are guarding these presents are the biggest men I have seen at the exposition. The Patagonlan giants are email beside them. . I asked one of them what the Jubilee presents were valued at. He said that no one had undertaken to estimate their value and that they were not insured. I also learned that the presents shown are only a tenth part or wnai me queen received, and that their value had been estimated by American silversmiths at i5,oo0,ooof ( ' ; ; ; ' ;; : .
