on the waterfront today, and which
again brings out strongly the need of
a municipal dock. According to many
who have been considering the question
fcince the announcement" was made that
vn;inii i 1 1 .... .......
GeodalV owners of the steamers, were
' considering Bending the fast steamers
here as a resuirof the cut in rates made
. by the San Francisco & Portland Stuam-
shin com nan v it would be Very un-
likely that they would consider docking
anywhere except below the bridges and
" that Wnuld eliminate ell of the tloeKs
i ; but one In all probability,
' It is pointed out by these people that,
white there are docks in the upper har

' hardly be likely to want to bring them
through the bridges, as they would be
operating on a fast schedule and during
high water periods there would be more
or less trouble in handling them be
. tween the bridges.
Best Sock Unobtainable.
Below the bridges the only docks that
'' era which would be at all suited for that
purpose would be Columbia dock No. 1.
The most modern dock of all, the North
... Hank, it Is thought., would be out of the
question, as It is owned by the S. P. &
8. railroad, which has a passenger and
freight traffic arrangement with North
Pacific Steamship company, and they
would hardly give up the use- of the
. dock to a competing concern. Similarly
Martin's dock Is occupied by steamers
of the North Pacific . line, while the
Alnsworth dock is that used by the San
Francisco & Portland Steamship com
pany, at which It is thought the owners
. of the Tale and Harvard are. directly
striking when they propose to run those
steamers in Tiere. It IS also thought
thatAlberack-cdr be tut offeasc frem San-Franelscorarrived-at
the question, as the American-Hawaiian
Steamship company has a leas on that
and in docking the' steamers of the
two companies 'might interfere with
each other. -irS'". 'H ''r.';'.
- Another reason given for the belief
' that ilieTaJattd liarvard,. which would
be the longest passenger steamers to
run In here, each being S?S feet long,
wouldoot be docked above the bridges
Is that the docks would hardly give
them sufficient room, although they
would be much more convenient for pas
senger to reach than any of the docks
- farther down the river.
' ' . Bennett Xs Coming. ;

heads of the Pacific Navigation com
pany, operating the Tale and Harvard,

time now to arrange for the docking of
the steamers., ift ;) h"-.- -",'. 4". . . w . '

Angeles, in which-; the Pacific Coast
, Navigation company lhas; made more
sweeping cut than the San Francisco &
Portland made, the Pacific Navigation
company is reported to have given out
the statement that if it appears that
both companies, are combining to run
the Tale and Harvard off the route, they
wish to state that both the ships can
average n -knots per hour, and with

Stories on the waterfront today were
to the effect that the British' steamer

manner in which her lumber cargo had

today say that a man is still on the ship

Purser Herbert McCallum of the
Breakwater, on which it was thought

The theory, backed by reports from

SECRET OF CHARMING
ROSY COMPLEXIONS
"Making complexions beautiful is not
nearly so difficult a- matter as most
women suppose," says Mrs. ' Mae Martyn
in, the New York American. "Using the
right beauty preparation is the main
thing. .
"Any woman who wishes to appear
really charming and beautiful must
taboo the powder box. Powder Is bad,
very bad for the skin. It clogs the
pores, roughens the skin and encourages
saxiowness. to get ria of that shiny,
greasy, rough, unattractive look; apply

In the office of the National Guard
there was this morning a great calm.
Adjutant General Finzer Is out of town
and the office staff today is principally
concerned -.with calculations aar to the
number of socks there would have to be
for a regiment placed on a war footing.
The Instructions are that the regiment
shall have 1500 men and each company
108. This means about 10,000 pairs of
socks for the regiment ." Then there
must be enough uniforms to equip the
regiment and with that under clothing.
Under clothing, it seems, is the most
serious problem of all, for It takes a
surprising number orsuitsJOsuppiy
a company and a great number more to
supply, a regiment. All the clothing
must come from San Francisco or Phil
adelphia, or some other national store
house that happens to be stocked for It
By the time the department of sup
plies has gone with sufficient extensive
dress into the dry goods business, the
great quantities of food the soldiers
would consume and the : tremendous
quantity' of cartridges they , would use
to shoot an enemy are still problems for
solving... so that after all, getting a
regiment or more on a war footing Is
a complex matter.
