It turn the big and handsome Potter
is getting the cordial ill will of the fish
enneo down on the lower boy. On
Thursday night ehe swept her big hull
through quite a string of nets, cutting
them all to pieces, at least that is what
is reported. It is a great handicap on
the fishermen, but the T. J. Potter is
absolutely required to keep in the given
channels that lead to and from her destin
ations herabout. and it is up to the fish
ermen to keep out of her way. She does
not hunt them up and run them down;
they must be in her way if she cuts into
them; therefor it is their fault and not
bers. Two wrongs never made a right
in the world. It is too bad, but there
is a way out of it
The 0. R. A N. dock is to be equipped
with a big gong, for calling the various
employes to the office. Agent Roberts
has had all he wants of chasing over
the huge length of the pier for the men
be needed, and has installed the bell,
with a code of signals indicatnig the
man be wants at headquarters. The
gong is an imense affair and comes from
one of the company's fleet of steamers
which has been dismantled sometime,
somewhere; but to the stranger they
will tefl a fairy tale of its being saved
from some of the wrecks of old, and the
older the fairier.

The snug and stout steamship Roanoke
arrived down from Portland early yes
terday morning and left for San Fran
cisco and Los Angeles about ten o'clock.
She had nearly 250 people on board and

and her little daughter, Mrs. Dan Allen,
Miss Kate Shively, and the Mesdames

board cylinder bend and broke the big
straps on her pitman, and in consequence
cut out all landing on the return trip

The steamer Lurliue did not arrive
down last evening until 8:40, She was
busy along stream, so she reported. Jack
Moron, her genial purser, who was doing
lay off stuut here for a day, while
Agent Charlie Fowler made the round
trip for him, went back on her last
night; that is, he went back to work at

people, (

.r.v wkiv, July 2fl. With a woman
as their chief, a gang of burglars dar
ingly entered a wholesale clothing store
few doors from Broadway on Twen
tietb (street late Wednesday night and
carried out a truck load of valuable ap
pare! while occupants of the continental
hotel opposite looked on. The woman
directed the men of the gang in selecting
the material to .be taken. She accom
panied them from the truck into the
store and followed each bundle of cloth
ing out to the street and superintended
the packing of it on the wagon
AH thU the Continental patrons saw,
not suspecting that the store was being
robbed. They believed the concern was
moving and that the woman was a sales
woman or floorwalker in charge of the
work. The pkice was that of I. A. Harris
& Brothers at 20 East Twentieth street.
The bright lights of Broadway lllumi
nated the entrance to the building and
it would not have been possible for the
burglars to make a raid without being
observed for at all hours of the day and
night persons in the hotel across the
street are awake
It is evident that the burglars had
taken this into consideration and plan
ned accordingly. At 11 o'clock Wednea
day night they drove to the building in
the truck. A glass cutter and a jimmy
were ud to gain an entrance. Then
the doors were thrown wide open and
the men went leisurely at their work,
rooms and began carrying out bundle
rooms and bega n carrying out bundle
after bundle. An inventory taken yes
terday disclosed that about 1000 pieces
were taken, among them 300 skirts and
230 rain coats valued at $3000,
