THE DAILY ASTORIAN,. ASTORIA, FRIUAY -MORNING. NOVEMBER 2 1894 SLUG SIX. Slug Six was the prettiest girl in the composing room, and that was a large laying, for all. the lady typos were charming creatures. But Slug Six was not merely pretty; she was exquisite and more than that. All the boys were In love with her. They avowed It openly. . That Is, all the boys except Slug Thirty-seven. If he was In love with her he never boasted of it Perhaps he was too shy.Or perhaps he was in spired by one of those deep passions which Slug Nineteen called a really truly love, and hence found It tco deep for utterance. Or perhnps again, there was some black-eyed beauty down In Dixie to whose remembered charms he remained faithful. 4 For Slug Thirty-seven ca me from "t'outh Carolina." He was a tall, ser ious, sunburnt youth, and very green about city ways. At first he was quite in despair at the complications of a large printing office. "You see, I came frc-m a country println' office," he confessed to Slug Six. "I nevah saw copy cut In 'takes' this way befo'e." "I am sure the foreman is very kind," she said. "Yes, ma'ai l, the fo'eman Is kindness itself. It's the galley-boy I'm afraid of." Slug Six smiled. "He's an autocratic young gentleman, Isn't he?" she said. "But you're a good compositor. Better than the most of us, in fact. You will get aionir &Jl rlghiin, a few days. And if there's anything in which I can help you. I hope you will not hesitate to call upon! me." "Thank you, ma'am; you ah very kind. I'll be suah to do It" The boys were highly amused at Thirty-seven's Innocence. They would get him to talk about South Cahllna end Gawgy, and then laugh hysterical ly at his quaint Southernlsms. Slug Six was sorry to see him chaffed so cruelly. But Slug Thirty-seven wasn't such an "easy mark" as they took him to be. It was not apparent at first, but they gradually discovered that he gave them tit for tat; and quite often, in the height of their hilarity, they were shocked to find out that the laugh was really on his side. And Slug Six, who was much sur prised at this, was very glad of It perhaps unreasonably glad. There were more surprises in store for her, however. "You know," said Thirty-seven, lay lng his stick on the cose one morning and turning towards her, "you know, I haven't been to a theatah since I came heah." - "Haven't you, really? Well, you ought ta go." "Yes, ma'am; that's what I think, but I nevah did like to go anywhah alone." Slug Six had no commant to make. "I thought," he continued, "that per haps you would go with me some even In'?" , , "Oh; I don't know! II " "Of co'se I had no right to expect you to go," he said, gently, "and if you would rathah not " "It isn't that," she replied, realizing that he was entitled to perfect frank ness, "indeed I should like very much to go; but you see I haven't known you very long, and my parents are not ac quainted with you at all." "Yes, ma'am, that's so," he said, and went back to work. Slug Six saw that he was hurt and hurt bad. She felt highly uncomfortable about It. He was certainly a gentle man, and she had wanted to go to "Charley's Aunt" so long. Later in the day she came and stood timidly beside him. "Mr. Woodruff" it was the first time anybody in the offlse excepting the cashier had ever spoken his name; it sounded sweetly strange from her Hps "Mr. Woodruff, I have been thinking that perhaps, if you care to, you might come home with me some evening say tomorrow! evening and get acquainted with my father. Then we can ask mamma about the theatre, you know." That was three months ago. ' And Slug Twenty-three, who Is a tachelor old enough to be called "un cle" by all the typesetters, and is, there fore, excellent authority on matter matrimonial, now says he soon expects to be Invited to the wedding. Slug Thirty-seven has quit chewing tobacco. He puts 112 in the savings bank every Saturday night He studies the "For Rent" advertisement with great solicitude, and Is Interested to no small degree In the price of pro visions. Slug Six has a new light In her beau tiful eyes. Last Sunday she might have been seen .closely scrutinizing a four-room flat near Lincoln Park. And there has been a dress-maker at her house sewing ever so busily for two "whole weeks. Chicago News. . IN MEMORY OP J. K. ARMSBY. Under date of October 20, 1894, the following has been received from Chi cago: At a meeting of those more closely Identified with the business Interests In California products, held upon re ceiving word of the death of Mr. J.

That the genial nature, the kind words, the generosity, and the strong character of the deceased will always be cherished In our memories. That great as the loss Is to us and to him many friends from ocean to ocean we recognize the much greater loss to his family and business associates, to whom we extendi our deepest sympa thies.

This department is open to regular readers of the paper only; we cannot undertake to send papers containing replies to others.) Please name the interstate com-nerce commerce commissioners, and tell some thing about the act under which they were appointed. Does a private agree ment between railroads violate the act? What penalties follow violations of the law, and, if these penalties are fines, who receives them? D. p.. There are five commissioners under the interstate commerce act of February 4, tS87. They are: William R. Moorlson chairman; James W. McDUl, Judson C. Clements, Martin A. Knapp, and Whee Ioek G. Veazey. The act Is entitled "Ar act to regulate commerce, and the com mission has power to regulate rates on interstat traffic, to decide upon their reasonableness and Justice; to pass upon questions of unjust discrimination, and to begin and carry on proceedings to enforce the law." The "long and short haul" clause of the act forbade a rail road to charge less for hauling a load a longer dastance than for hauling the same load t shorter distance; but the commission has power cow to permit roads to do so. It decides what repara tion the railroad guilty of violating the law shall make to the party wronged. A private agreement to evade the law would be a violation of the act, and It is in relation to such agreements that most of the questions arise that are submitted to the commission.
