The following communication comes
from Chairman W. W. Parker of tne
Water Commission: "Lest some per-
JEFF'S, Ths Only Rsiarat
sons who are not overburdened with
city taxes should lose sleep through
fear of the loss of money by the Water
Commission, it may be stated thut the
bondsmen on the Water Commission's
treasurer's bond are easily worth, in
first class real estate In this city, live
times the amout of water-works funds
In said treasurer's keeping."
, The police were busy lost night
searching for four young miscreants
who during the last few nights have
been sleeping In the open air and com
mitting all kinds of petty depreda
tions. Two of them, George Gorman
and Walter Brown, were caught . by
Ofllcer Thomson in Colonel Taylor's
barn. The others are still at large. All
four led by Gorman, whose father was
once well known here, came over from
Tacoma last week. How ' they have
lived In the meantime nobody socms
to know.
. The match game of football last
night, as was expected, proved to be
the most Interesting that has been
played during the present season, and
from beginning to end was anybody'o
victojryj The grand-stand was filled
with a hundred enthusiastic ladles
wha cheered and applauded every
piece of good play very heartily. .Of
course those among the spectators
who were represented on the field kept
an eager eye on their champions and
led the shouts of approval that came
almost Incessantly during the game.
The match was very fast and at times
highly exciting, ; several scrimmages
near the grand-stand goal supplying
plenty of fun and bringing out some
excellent play. The Black and Gold
team carried their colors ta victory,
scoring two goals (both kicked In the
first half) to their opponents' one. This
score, however, by no means repre
sents the closeness of the struggle, for
Addis, who kept goal for the Blacks,
stopped several magnificent shots
made by his opponents. Tallent, Rlde
halgh, J. Carruthers, and Smalt
played a brilliant game throughout
for Mrs. Stokes and her party of la
dles, while Hlgglns, Addis, Spittle, and
Smith were a tower of strength to the
winning team, represented by Mrs. El
more and her eleven ladles. One of the
pleasing features of the game .was the
excellent work done by the new play
ers, proving conclusively that the raw
material of the club Is capable of very
high development. Mr. Frank - Gunn
umpired as usual, and his decisions
were prompt and unchallenged
throughout. At the close of the game
a beautlfful bunch of roses was pre
sented by Mrs. W. L. Robb to Mrs. C.
W. Fulton, the captain (by proxy) of
the winning side.
The Astorlan Is in receipt of the fol
lowing amusing letter:
Almost as soon as the World's Fair
at Chicago had opened, a titled two
legged animal of the human species,
calling himself "'Due de Veragua,"
turned' up, having come all the way
from Spain. In that favored land ho
had been known as a quiet sort of a
country gentleman, who, once In a
while, went to Madrid to kow-tow to
the ruling monarch, and for the rest
of his time bred a ferociously superior
stock of bulls for , fighting purposes,
but he went broke at Paris. He claims
to be a descendant of C. Columbus, the
Intelligent gentleman who balanced an
egg on Its. end, by smashing it down
a little bit, and who afterward dis
tinguished himself by discovering
America. It wasn't his fault; but
purely his good luck, that blundered
him to the West India end of the Car
ibbean archipelago, for he had set out
to go to quite a different country, tak
ing a short cut oversea to avoid the
tedium and dangers of the Cape of
Good Hope. But,, some six hundred
ascertained years after the Scandina
vians had been familiar with the
Northeastern coast of North America
and planted colonies there, the Genoa
ese come along in two or three cara
vals and sailing westward, bumped
against some islands whose existence
had previously been ignored on the
admiralty charts. - In other words,
Chris, discovered America.
As far as the public Is concerned, it
may be said to have been a fortunate
discovery.for if our Italian friend had
not set out on his Journey to the far
Indies and the land of Prester John,
we might have been born In Europe
or in ignorance; we might have been
born a girl, or we might not have been
born at all. .
So much we owe to C. Columbus.
Whether the debt Is one merely of
gratitude, or whether It Is of so ser
ious a nature -as to impose a pecuniary
obligation on us Americans is the tie
between the American people and the
Due de Veragua. His noble nibs
thinks he has a sort of moral mort
gage on the wealth of the United
States, and that the holders thereof,
from one dollar a day up to the As
torbilts and Havensack's should chip
in and give him a" fund of a million
or two or six, to clear his bull breed
ing grounds of debt, and secure to him
and his progeny a loafing capital of
forty or fifty thousand dollars a year
more than sufficient to supply bed,
board, and shelter to two hundred
American families, to say nothing of
single individuals. He does not claim
to have been of any use or advantage

to us. In fact none of us ever heard
of his ducal joblots until a few months
ago; but, because he has condescended
to be a descendant of Christoforo Col
umbo, and to have graced this pleblan
land with his Illustrious presence, "we,
the people," should and must come
down with tie cold cash Jn his behalf.
Not much!
There may be some Infernal fool
tuft-hunters and tltle-worshippti's, un
worthy of birth in a republic which
gave great lives and good money tc
free from monarchical rule and aristo
cratic Imposition, who will be glad to
patronize "blue blood" by subscribing
to the Veragua relief fund. All such
should be classed with, fraudulently
Imported Chinamen and be deported,
even at the expense of the nation.
Forty years ago there was a little of
that snobbishness in America; Just
enough to furnish a text for the ridi
cule of clever writers; but now we
have specimens of degenerate man
and womanhood sufficiently numerous
to make a gratuity -to the Dude de
Kaklak, or the Count de Plunder, or
the Lord Nozoo, an actual possibility.
How to get rid of them or. of that anti-republican
tendency is a more seri
ous problem than Is presented In the
silver or tariff questions, ani In its so
lution more vitally depends the per
petuity of this republic.
