The rooms of the society are in need of renovation and refitting in order to render them attractive and comfortable for the use of strangers and visitors during the coining win ter. To aid in procuring the neces sary funds for the desired improve ments, the executive committee have decided to give the above mentioned entertainment, which will consist of vocal and instrumental music, read ings and recitations, kindly furnished by some of our best local talent, and will close with a beautiful and nnpres- sivc tableau, several original iea- tures will appear in the programme, among which the Swedish ballad, by Mrs. Bavard. and a son" in "Russian Finn, "by Mr Carlsen. B. F. Stevens & Co. have generous ly allowed tiie society the use of one of their line pianos tree ot charge, which will add greatly to the pleasure of the occasion. The admission has been fixed at the low rate of 25 cents, so as to place an enjoyable evening's recreation within the reach of all friends of the cause and their families, and it is hoped they will avail them selves of the opportunity, and fill the plesant church to overflowing. Over the signature of "Rustler," Captain Tom Stratton, of Port An- jcles, contributes the sketch following to the Port Townsend Argus: As few of your readers ever heard how the Collector of Customs, v ictor Smith, captured the Shubrick, then revenue cutter in this district, from the officers and crew, I thought it would interest them, as I can give the full particulars, having been on board at the time. In 'G3 or G4, after Victor Smith, the then Collector of Customs, had established the port of entry at Port Angeles, he commenced erecting build ings for custom house and marine hos pital, and to carry out his idea of economy, utilized the forces under his control in their construction. In spectors and revenue cutters were, all madu to do their share of the work. The Shubrick was then in command of Capt. Pease, and was made to do the freighting of brick, lime and lumber, greatly to the disgust of the officers and crew. She made several trips to Port Madison and other places for brick and lumber, and it was laugh able to see old Collins, the -boatswain, piping the men on board with lumber on their shoulders growling and stumbling at every step. This went on for some time, Captain Pease re monstrating with the collector against such humiliating work, which he said was beneath the dignity of the service which he represented, and Irad a de moralizing effect on his officers and crew; but the collector paid no atten tion to them. At length Captain Pease and his officers could or would stand it no longer, and concluded to leave this station and go to San Fran cisco with the cutter, without asking permission, and then lay their case before the secretary of the treasury, In the meantime, keeping their own counsel, they got permission to coal and wood up, which they did with an eye to their intended trip to San Francisco; for it was found afterward that she had on board eighty tons of coal and forty cords of wood. Whether the collector was informed of their in tention or not, 1 don't know; but cer tain it was he had got wind of some thing and laid his plans accordingly, which succeeded to his entire satisfac tion. About that time there, arrived at Port Angeles a special agent, D. W. Brown, to investigate the custom house affairs, to whom the collector ppealed, and got his sanction to dis chanro the othcers and crow, it was said, by charging the officera with secession proclivities, and he feared they were about to turn the Shubricl: into a rebel cruiser, strengthening his suspicion by the extra fuel taken on board without his consent.

One word from me and yon would not remain one minute on this quarter-deck; but I submit, knowing that I will receive justice from the hands of the depart ment which I represent."

It was then I meaning of so mauy passengers. The collector called them together and told them to do the best they could to work the vessel into Esqnimalt. Call ing on me, he asked if I would not take charge of them and assist him, as he was afraid there would be trouble with the old crew before they got to anchor. I replied that I had paid my passage t. Victoria and it was none of my fight, and I would have nothing to I do with it. About this time some of the old crew got some liquor some where and became terribly noisy, in terfering with the new men. Lieut. Selden called to me, saying: Tom, if you are a friend of mine you will help me out of this scrape. I don't knw any of these men, or what they can do. I wish you to organize them, and send some into the fire room, and some to pass along wood; and for God s sake don t have any trouble with the old crew; don't mind what they say, so long as the' keep their hands off, for I fear, if there is a b!ow struck, there will be blood spilt before we get to Esquimalt." I told him for his sake I would do my best. I soon got them in working order, the old crew continually inter fering, calling all kinds of vile paines. We paid no attention to them, but kept on with the work. We soon got into Esquimalt, where the officers and crew were landed, and then steamed around to the mouth of Victoria har bor and anchored for the night, all going on shore except Lieutenant Sel don, Thos. Winship, the engineer, and three others besides myself to giiard the vessel.
