' Te steamboat men are very much In terested la tbe matter of the appointment of a new Harbor Master for this port, Judge, Williams will take bis seat a Mayer July t and the appointment will prwbably. be made soon thereafter. Heretofore the great trouble has been, so river men amy,, that tnrough political Influence inexperienoed men lfave secured tbe position. They want a competent man this time, one who thoroughly un derstands marine law and the rules gov erning steamboats and shipping. .. "Hae you any particular man in view for Harbor Master r t f FAVOR MORGAN, i "Tes; regardless of political affiliations we are unanimously la Caver of the ap pointment of M. G. Morgan of Sellwood. He is a former steamboat captain and m submarine diver, and is thoroughly con veraant with the duties of the office. He has had SO years of practical experi ence on the water front, in this city and Is familiar with the conditions existing here, No better choice' could be ril&do than ha. His appointment would give universal satisfaction." j The present incumbent -of the office is James Laird, of Albina. He was former ly a police officer, and it Is said that he knew absolutely nothing about the dutiej which he was cabled upon to perform, se curing tne position through political preferment. All- his predecessors se cured the Job in the earns manner. V WILTj PETITION. "Why dWt you send In a petition for the appointment of Morgan f" Was asked. 'We probably wllL He is the only logical man for the place, slitce we are all tn favor of him. It is understood that a man by the name of Burns, a former Harbor Master, is an aspirant for the position, ss weR as a Mr. Kosesblat. Neither one is qualified for such an of flee, and it Is to be hoped that a "puir will cut no flgure In 'this Important ap- j polntment "tor once." CONTEMPLATE Good Samaritan Hospital, $200,000 St. Mary's Academy, $15,000. Ths trustees ot the Good Samaritan Hospital are actively working in 4- the interest or the building of the new hospital. r'There-s, not a mere 4- worthy institution In the city than this, whlota evW yeas) contributes to 4- the care of the Biek and poor la tbe 4- motion. Several methods have been ddopted to secure the amount neces-4- sary to erect the building about 1200. 000. The corner-stone f the wing al 4 ready , completed was laid on May 14,' 1)00, and sines Chen, but alow prog-4- ress has been made. -C V'l- 4 The new building will be artistla la design, and the , plan adopted for 4 the structure will leave the place where the present hospital stands to be 4 used as a court. The building will surround this' court, the eastern wing to 4 be fashioned like the one now completed. ..', 4 The hospital has been rebuilt enoa, the first patient having been received 4 in the original hospital on October t, 187S. The changes that bars taken 4 place since then are' Illustrative ot the progress of settlement in. this eotra-4- try. When the site was selected by Bishop B. Wlstar Morris ft was from 4 among the shrubbery and trees, and stow it is located in the. center of one 4 ot the moat beautiful residence districts pf the city and has every modern 4 convenience In access. The projeet of enlarging the hospital Is so 4- worthy and realised to be so, and it needs only to be brought to the at-4- tention of the public to receive its support. 4- ST, MARTS TO BUILD. 4 ' The Bisters 'of the-Holy Name at fit Mary's Academy have made ar- 4 rangements for the erection of a large addition to their academy building. 4 The addition will face Mill street, between Fourth and Fifth, and will cost 4 $15,000. The number of pupils has q greatly increased that the building 4 must correspondingly be enlarged, and this addition will he utilised for 4 classrooms and a dormitory. , 4 The furnishing of fine music rooms will be valuable accessory. The 4 edditlon will be the addition of another story undereriath those already con- 4 structed. making the frame building four stories in height, equaling the 4- main part of the building. Also an extension of &t feet will be made on the 4 Fifth-street side, four stories In height During the last season the acad- 4 my has been overcrowded, and this will furnish accommodations for some 4 time. 444. SHEEP JUMPED FOUR STORIES Landed on Back of Mule and Made Away From Town. A number of sheep escaped Saturday morning from the slaughter pens in tne fourth story of the Swift Packing House, East St. Louis, says the Chronicle. They knocked down several boys and men in getting away. They were all finally corralled, but 01 which jumped out of a fourth-story window landed on' the back ot a mule, and to the surprise of the butchers slid off the mule and headed for Brooklyn at a lively gaH, apparently unhurt. All trace of It was lost but It Is. expected that It will turn up in quarters at a barbecue Sunday. The mule was not hurt, but attempted . to kick away from a wagon to, which it was hitched. 1 hiii Bird Society Prizes.1 The three cash prises offered by the John Burroughs' Society for knowledge of Oregon birds have been awarded. ?

' , ' t i A Ainlque shipinent was made from Oreron City this morning by boat It consisted e ton of moss which gathered along4 , ' the Clackamas River and consigned to the Portland Seed Company,. Th -manager of the firm said that ha had quits a number of people In his empjoy fathering moss, in various localities of th TSountry, He pay for It at the rate, of between t2S and 40 per ton. all owing to its grade. They' gather it from rocks and trees and SOWS of the pickers make good wares. The light, green, fluffy moss is worth much more than that carrying con slderable dirt and small fibers of wooot The moss IS used as a sort of preserva tive In ' ihlpptng plants and shrubs through the malt, . It is dampened and neatly tied around the roots of the shrubs, and 1a tn great demand by the big awed bouses throughout ths coun- try. Ths Portland Seed Company sends the greater portion of its moss to firms In California and in the East.

In search for the commodity ; the pickers explore Woods, scramble over rocks and logs. ascend trees, and withal have a very exciting experience. . A CORRECTION . - i SWh SSI II I - "Dutch" ' and "Kanney" Found Only a Half .Dollar Instead of $15 The naturally serene atmosphere of the sanctou saoctorium of the city editor of Th. Journal was slightly disturbed yesterday by the entry of two specimens of young American manhood. "Dutch and "Kanney" toy name. These young -gentlemen were very ta dtgaant at the statement of The Journal In a recent issue that they had found 116 in bogus money at the foot of Wash ington street, and as they wished to set themselves aright beford the eyes of the curious puUJe they stated' that they only found a half-dollar in bogus money and that they threw it into the river.

The census bulletin 6n shipbuilding, which has been prepared under the di rection of A. R. Bralth, of New York, shows that the business of constructing iron and steel ships grew between 1890 and 1900 with wonderful rapidity, but mainly for the lakeS .and Coastwise trade. Nine navy-yards are computed to have a cagltal of t54,291,0U. In I860 675 private shipbuilding yards had an aggre gate capital of under lS.0O0.000. This con trast shows how expensive a plsnt ts re quired for building large steel ships. This is also strikingly shown by the fact that the vlue of the product or all yards in 1909 did not quite equal the capital, while In 1S60 it was more than double the' cap ital. Omitting th Government establish ments, the capital Invested la shipbuild ing In 1900 was T7,3Q.7M, an Increase in round numbers of about 50,000,000 in 10 years; the capital In this business in 1900 was nearly three times as great as in 1890. ; ' Want Free Delivery.
