freight before leaving up for Port
land. This is the Hornet's first voy
age to Astoria. She has a heavy
general cargo, with lots of cement,
a commodity that is wanted very
badly in this port just now, and a
goodly share of what she carried of
cement, was for Astoria, but could
not be had as it was cargoed below
the Portland stuff, and will Jiave to
be freighted back here. The Hornet
is a "three-year-old" Aberdeen-built
vessel of 660 gross tons, 402 tons;
176 feet long, 38 feet beam, and 12-5
feet depth; carries a crew of 18 men

Your Patronage Solicited. Courteous
Treatment to All.
The departure of the steamer Al
liance from this port on Sunday
morning last without docking here
and taking certain freight, baggage
an passengers, is sharply resented in
several instances about town. It is
an irregular way of fulfilling an ad
vertised and regular steamship busi
ness, to say the least of it.
The steamer Alliance reached this
port from Portland at 5 o'clock on
Sunday morning, and Captain Par
sons kept right on to the bar and
went on his way to sea and Marsh
field. The steamer Eureka, bound out for
he port of that name, arrived down
early on Sunday morning and went
to sea almost directly.
The steamer Olympic was among
the early morning get-aways from
this port on Sunday morning last,
bound for the Golden Gate.
The steamer Casco arrived down
the river on Sunday morning last
very early, lumber laden for San
Pedro, and went over the bar with
out delay here.
The French bark Jacobson went
up stream early on Sunday, on the
lines of the Ocklahama, which ar
rived down' at midnight Saturday
after her.
The steamship Riverside from San
Francisco, entered these waters early
yesterday morning, and went direct
ly on to the metropolis from here.
The steamer Johan Poulsen went
to sea, from Knappton, early on
Sunday morning, bound for San
Francisco, with lumber up the Columbia.
The steamer F. S. Loop was an
early arrival in these waters yester
day morning, and passed on up
stream after a brief stay at the Cal
lender. The steamship Geo. W. Elder is
due to enter port this morning at an
early hour, from her California ports
of call, with freights and passengers.
The steame- Argo is due to sail
from flip CMenAer nier at an earlv
hour tomorrow morning, with freight
and passengers, for Tillamook Bay
points.
The steamship Breakwater was on
time here Sunday morning from Coos
Bay, and after a short stay at the
O. R. & N., went on up stream.
The little handful of people who
sat in the Astoria Theatre Sunday
night and listened to the troubador
like notes of the Black Patti and her
dusky followers probably were un
aware of the fact that there was
something in the nature of a strike
or a lockout going on back of the
drop curtain.
Yesterday Manager Hanlon was
busy engaging a new stage force. He
also "fired" some of them Sunday
night, but took them back when he
saw that all started to walk out to-
igether. Now it is hinted that the
five members of the stage force are
noing to call their affair a lockout
and will try to see that no one else
gets their jobs after the improved
fashion of modern unions.
The trouble happened something
like this: The manager pays $10 for
each performance for the stagehands.
Out of this the stage manager is sup
nosed to pay the other four helpers.
Sunday night the men say, Manager
Hanlon walked back of the stage and
announced that he would cut the $10
down to $7.50 which meant there
would be less money for each man
They felt they couldn't do the work
at the reduced wage and kicked. I he
stage manager for the Black Patti
show also sot into the game; he ai
leeed that his company has as much
right to a full stage force as any
other afftrreitation that played mere,
and he insisted on the full force. The
house managed told them they could
take it or leave it and they imme
diatelv walked out.
Finally the matter was patched up
by Mr. Hanlon agreeing to pay the
old rate, with an assurance, so the
men understood, that they were not
to be docked in the future.
Had the demands of the men not
been airreed to Sunday night there
probably wouldn't have, been any
show, as they were prepared to go
out in a body.

INTERESTING EXPERIMENT
MADE IN CHICAGO BRINGS
THIS FACT OUT.
CHICAGO. April 26.-More than
100 Chicago girls, pretty, vivacious
and fairly well to do. want husbands
that is, if they can find the right
ones. The responses of these young
women, describing their ideal man,
were read last night at the Halstcd
Street Institutional church by the
Rev. D. D. Vaughan, during the
course of a sermon on "The Model
Husband."
A majority of the young women
writers surprised both (he poster and
congregation by stating positively
that they wanted their husband to be
"the real boss." They also declared
it was not necessary that he be hand
some, wealthy, talented, or a "swell
dresser" but it was insisted in every
case that he be a man who was cap
able of real love- The word "love"
was underscored in most of the let
ters. The feminine candidates prac
tically were agreed that their future
"better halves" must be "good heart
ed, kind and affectionate." Business
or professional men were not prefer
red by most, but "clean, honest men,
who make clean money", were desir
ed. Dr. Vaughan secured the opinions
of the young women by sending out
a letter in which he propounded the
following questions regarding the
model husband:
"1. Do you want him to be the
head of the house?
"2. Do you want him to always
follow your bidding?
"3. Do you want him to give his
time to succeed in business or to his
home?
"4. Do you care whether he loves
yoti or do you merely want a home?
5. Do you prefer a business or a
professional man?
"6. Must he be wealthy?
"7. Must he be handsome?
"8. Must he be a swell dresser?
"9. Must he be educated or talen
ted?" Next Sunday night will be devoted
to the model wife.
"1. Must she be pretty?
"2. Must she be a good cook and
a good housekeeper?
"3. Must she be vivocious or
quiet?
"4. Must she be stylish?
"5. Must she be a society or a
home girl?
"6. Must she be a college gradu
ate? "7. Must she be talented?
"8. Do you prefer a 'new woman'
or the old fashioned kind.
"0. Must she have a good dis
position? "10. May she be a clubwoman,
reformer or interested in politics?
"11. Do yau want a clinging ivy
or a sturdy oak?"
of the Ridge building, a four tory
brick and stone business and otlicc
structure on Walnut street near
Ninth. The tire was discovered at
2 o'clock in the basement of the
building, fed by old wooden iloori
and partitions, the blaze spread with
in an incredibly short time to every
part of the interior of the building
and the efforts of the lircuu-u were
devoted to the saving of adjoining
structures, including the six story
building on Mailt street owned by
The Ridge estate, which also owned
the burned building. The total lots
is estimated at $200,000. The entire
stock of the Olney Music Company,
one of the occupant of the build
ing, valued at $2S,0U0 was destroyed
The insurance is said to cover con
siderable more than half of all los
ses. Only one person Mrs. Hoi
lington who lived on an upper, floor,
was in the building when the fire
was discovered- She wa taken out
unhurt. A stiff southeast wind fan
ned the fire and tilled the air with
sparks, starting a dozen smaller liret
all of which were extinguished with
out much damage The Bank of
Commerce was among the buildings
threatened.
