FIRST AUEilT TO BE RECORDED Supervising: Inspector Bir- (, mlngHajh SaysTlegnla . tion Works WelL UTILES ARE STEICT -BUT EFFECTIVE Chief from Baa Francisco Will Ao company Local Inapewtom Ed wards and Fuller to Astoria to ' Inspect Several Vessels. Supervising Inspector . John Bermlng ham arrived here this morning' from San Francisco to remain three or four days on his semi-annual tour of Inspec tion, Incidentally he will visit Astoria in company with Local Inspectors Ed wards and Fuller and sea to it that every precaution. Is taken to prevent ac cident In oarryinc. excursionists to see the warships next Wednesday. Inspector B arming; ham says every boat going out over the bar will be lim ited to a safe number of passengers and an ample number of officials will be on hand when the boats pull out to enforce the temporary regulations. In spector Bermlngham has preceded the fleet all along the coast from the time it reached Ban Diego and to this is be lieved to be due the fact that so far not one accident of a serious nature has attended the big rush and excitement. "More than 260,000 people saw the fleet from vessels that went to meet them off the California coast," said Inspector Bermlngham thta morning, "and yet there was not one person lost by drowning. This I consider very for tunate, indeed, but the very strictest of rules were observed In order to pre vent overcrowding. No doubt most of the boat owners would have taken ex treme risks for a few dollars had they been permitted to do so. Equally strict regulations will be observed Wednesday when a fleet of Nsmall craft go out from Astoria to meet the warships." i From hera the supervising inspector goes to Puget sound to arrange forythe lnforcement of the temporary rules when the fleet arrives.

Clar ence Coon and Herschel Chambers. 11-year-old boys of St Johns, Oregon, ar rested by the police here last week for running away from home, were again picked up yesterday afternoon 0 after committing two robberies. The boys admit their guilt, but are as cloee mouthed as old-time criminals. When picked up last week the authorities be lieved the boys were slmpy filled with the idea of seeing the world, but their later aots disprove this. The lads arrived ln Vancouver from Portland last Friday for the second tlnle, after being set free by the juve nile court at Portland. They entered the tent of Mrs. Carl, near the Colum bia river railway bridge, Saturday night and stole a number of articles. Mrs. Carl claims they took $40 In gold and Jewelry, besides some lanterns, a fish ing pole and several other1 articles, but the boys declare they did not get the money. Yesterday, the two youthful criminals entered the bargain store of J. Morris on Main street and carted away a lot of stuff, from clothing to a handful of 'phoney' jewelry. They were caught ln the garrison by Officer Curtain while ln the act of hiding ths loot This morning Prosecuting Attorney Stapleton stated he would file Informa tions against the boys with a view of sending them to the state reform school. The costliest flats ln London have been built on the site of the late Duke of Cambridge's house at the corner of Park Lane and Piccadilly. There ars six flats ln the building, and it Is said that the rental of each will be from 110,000 to $12,000. Heavy as this is. It will yield little more than a suf ficient Interest on the expenditure,' which has been somewhat over $800,000, The flats ars unusually large, consist ing of four reception rooms and 10 bed rooms. " " Don't Read This There Is Smith who runs the drug store, and Smith who runs the ice cart Smith who drives an auto, and Smith who drives a streetcar there is Smith who built the library for the town, and Smith who built the building for Smith, Don't Read This What a Lot of Smiths There Are ! T Young Smiths and old Smiths rich Smiths and poor Scri1S-s ; " decent Smiths and shady Smiths Smiths who came orer fa the Mayflower and Smiths who don't know the difference between tho Mayflower and corn flour. When you come to think of it, what a tre- .(; mendous difference there is in Smiths! You'd surely not accord the same social reception to the auto Smith and the trolley Smith to the giver of ' libraries and the library-builder. Of course not bosh fiddlesticks I and' such' like! But why in all reason don't you realize that if the mere name df : Smith doesn't put all its owners into one class, the mere fact of fifty or - ; sixty makes of typewriters happening to bear the same price resemblance doesn't count for a hang, if there isn't a quality sameness to keep it' company. It isn't fair to compare the L. C. SMITH & BROS.' TYPEWRITER with any other typewriter sold. It's what you get, not what you give, that counts. Measure us by our own standard. Size us up by the rule of Smith and what Smith has accomplished in the typewriter world. Don't put us on a -basis of comparison. We are beyond comparison. .' L. & Bf.
