Department Turns Down Removal of
Station to Ft Stevens.
The Chamber of Commerce read
yesterday the following copy of a
letter transmitted to Senator Bourne
by the Treasury Department in re
gard to removal of the quarantine
station to Ft. Stevens. The letter s
self-explanatory and settles the mat
ter: "Treasury Department,
"Washington, Jan. 18, 1908.
"Hon. Jonathan Bourne,
"United States Senate.
"My Dear Senator. I have the
honor to acknowledge receipt of your
letter of January IS, 1908, inclosing
communication under date of Janu
ary 8, 1908, from Mr. S. B. Vincent,
secretary of the Manufacturers' Asso
ciation of the Northwest, Portland,
Oregon, relative to the conduct of
quarantine matters at Astoria.
"In reply I have to inform you that
the establishment of a quarantine sta
tion at Fort Stevens is, impracicable,
the present station having been estab
lished by law in its present location
and having since its establishment
been regularly appropriated for in
that location.
"I have, however, to inform you
further that arrangements have re
cently been completed with the Life
Saving Service by which the keeper
of the Point Adams Life-Saving Sta
tion reports by telephone the passing
of all vessels from his station bound
for Columbia River Ports, thus af
fording timely notice of their expect
ed arrival, and obviating delays which
may have occurred in the past owing
to the fact that vessels sometimes ar-
J rive without warning, due, in many
; instances, to the heavy fogs which
prevail in the locality and prevented
; the sighting of the vessels from the
s shore it Astoria.
' "The communication of Mr. Vin
jjcent is returned as requested,
j "Respectfully,
"(Signed by the Acting Sur
j gcon-General.)M i

reached her dock yesterday afternoon

"lucky one," as on all her trips, or
nearly all, she has fine weather. It
is not known just how Capt. Dunham
works it but it is a fact nevertheless
that though other vessels may en
counter bad weather the Roanoke
manages to strike the good weather.
This and the courteous treatment of
the passengers by the officers and
men mikes this vessel a popular one.
On this trip she came up from Eureka
in 25 hours, a fine record.
The Alliance is due to leave for
Coos Bay this morning. She has a

An interesting service was held on
the British ship Claverdon Sunday
afternoon by Chaplain F.llctsen. The,
following young ladies assisted In
singing: Miss F.llefsen, Miss Steven
son. Miss Nelson, Miss McCrea and
Mrs. Gaston, Miss Bertha Stevenson
sang a solo which was greatly ap
preciated by the sailors.
The ladle of the W. C. T. U. are
making comfort bg (in sailor lan
guage "biddy bags"), in which is put
needles, thread, button, toothbrush,
a small Testament or Bible. To a
sailor this means much, not o much
because of the money value, but be
cause of the interest that prompted
the giver. Many a young sailor ha
by such means been helped to a high
er and nobler life. This i the testi
mony of one who now walk the
quarter deck of a fine ihlp: "A mall
biddy bag wa sent me by an unknown
ladyj in Boston, in it were thread,
needles, buttons, Bible., etc., and a
iter written, as a sister to a brother.
I concluded that if a stranger it thus
interested in my life, I ought myself
to make better use of time and oppor
tunities and become the man which
thi stranger hopes and pray for."
Any person who may have a kindly
feeling for the seafaring man it asked
to make up such a little bag. Mrs.
lUlcfsen will show how these should
be made. Magazines and good reading
matter are needed at the Institute.
Every ship that come down from
Portland is visited by the chaplain
and furnished with reading matter.
Miss Gertrude Upshur returned
last night from an over Sunday visit
with her uncle, Judge Hunt, of the
federal court at Portland, and now
presididing in the land trials in prog
ress there.
