Portland Vindicator,
Until a few months ao, the fore
in a u of the Smi Francisco Exawner
pereinpto-ily rwfustd to permit a
irl printer to work oa ttiat paper.
Numerous applications were made
but he remained inexorable in his
refusal to employ any but male
compositors. During the latter
part ot last summer Miss Hattie
Ross of this city, a young lady
printer well known among the de
cipies ot Faust, both here and in
Portland, went .o the Bay City for
the purpose of securing employ
ment. She left a steady case on
the Oregonian when she went be
low, ami m.u: a change: tor the
purpose of enjoying life, for a
season, in the metropolis of the
Pacific coast, than for any other
reason. It was not long after her
arrival until a printer with whom
she W3s well acquainted had oc
casion to lay off a day or two, and
he engaged Miss Ross to take his
place. During the interval the
toreman relivtantly consented to
the arrang mcnt, m l the Oiegon
girl took her piace as a substitute
at ber friend's case. The tyrant of
the composing room watched her
with evideut interest, as the type
went click, click, click with almost
lightning speed into her composing
stick, tie went away, and return
ed several times, still watching her
intensely. Hattie paid no atten
tion to anything except the work
in which she was engaged, and the
next day when the work of the
forty printers in the office was
measured, she bad the top string
by several thousand ems. There
was no nr. ore oppoation to toe
young lady irom VYebfoot setting
type in the Examiner office, and
she now has steady employment.
She made over $17 in two night's
work, The Vindicator is proud to
state tbat Miss Hattie took her
first lessons iu the art preservative
in this office.
THE DI.TY . Sl'GAB.
Congressman Felioa c?8 ot Want
It Reduced.
Washington, Dec. 21. Repre
sentative Felton has secured a
promise from the senate finance
committee to give the California
delegation a hearing on the reduc
tion ot the sugar tann in the sen
ate bill. Mr. Felton proposes to
present to the committee a state
ment of the condition of the beet
sugar industry in California. He
will endeavor to show that the de
velopment of that industrv thus far
proves conclusively that the mak
ing of beet sugar from beets willJbe
a great success in California, and
iu oe one oi tne erreat indiistr ps
of that state.
He will maintain that the reduc
tion of the tariff on sugar, as con
templated in the senate bill, will
check and may destroy the infant
industry of making' sugar from
beets. It is probable that the en
tire California delegation will ap
pear before the committee and
urge the same arguments and. pro
test against a reduction of the duty
on sugar.

Ottawa, Ont, D-e. 19. It is
understood that a company is be
ing formed with -a capital of about
$2,000,000 to undertatif. the laying
of a telegraph cable from Blanc
Sable, at tue Smalts of De'ie isle,
t a point on the const of Scotland
or Ireland. The - Dominiou Gov
ernment will probably "agree to ex
teud the present telegraph line oa
ihe north side of the Gulf Mingoa
to Blanc Sable, and hand the en
tire gu f and ' coast f2i?gi''iph.by
tem over to the now company, as a
subsidy in aid of their enterprise.
The Dominion Government, it is
said, have received from a London
company an offer to lav a cable
from Halifax to Sable Island for
$100,000, and it is probable that
hr necessary grant of money to
nun'i'". them to accept the offer
wiilvio asked for at the coming ses
sion of Parliament.

Fanny Jones (colored) is under ar

child by inhuman treat

The body was covered with scars

of having tortured other children.

he has no legal name. He was

he has no legal existence and
