Letters to School Children.
Now York. Dec. 14.
Doar Children: Vhon I patronlzo
ft church, a rostaurant or a barber
shop away from homo I nlwayB nt
tond tho nonroat. So I droppod into
n llttlo Gorman harbor-shop at tho
corner of Broadway and Fifth ave
nue. It was built out under tho sldo
walk nnd watt finished entirely, In
whlto mnrblo, oxcopt tho colling of
glasn.
Tho harbors woro all votoran Gor
man soldlors and tho proprietor ox
plained to mo that tho shoo was a
rondosvous of aormnus who had
fought in tho union armies in DIs
march's campaign against tho French
In tho 70s and an occasional revolu
tionary horo of 1848.
"IJosldon," ho addod, "shops al
wnyB ndvortlso for young mon.
Theso ohl mon nro bottor harbors and
thoy work cheaper,"
When I moutlonod thnt my fothor
wns a Boldlor In tho Oormnn revolu
tion, thoy all tried to talk at tho samo
tlmo, thoy woro ho pleased.
"Moln vador was nuch (also) in
dor rovolutlon." snld tho llttlo manl
ourosx In tho corner of tho shop.
"Ko was oliv Htudent nuf her Unl
voraltnot zu Iloldolhorg, und gleng In
dlo Sohwoltz nuch daun Krleg."
I thought flho was vory young to
bo n riau:htr of tho revolution. Sho
snld Hho was a dnughter by a second
nmrrlngo. liar fnlhor wan a prof w
nor nt tho University at Leipzig, had
a largo family and ht had com to
tho United Stntwt to make hr living
Think of that, and not yat lxton.
In all tho Ihvko cltlwi of the ontt
nourly all womon omploy a hulr
droor and noaiiy all mon employ
tho harbor-shop mnnlouras.

I auggoBtod tlmt her knowledge of
langungo ought to get her a better
position, and if she would Insert wn
udvortlHemont.lu a Now York paper
us foil own it would got her a Jeb:
"Wnntid Position by young girl
uh innnlouro to notroas. Speaks
Fronrh, aornmn, 13ngUh."
A fow day lntr I wis In thero
again and tho proprietor told mo
tho llttlo Qernmn girl had tlftoeu ap
plications und had loft thoro In nn
nutomoblltt with n noted notross. Hi
was so mud ho would hardly shavo
mo.
I told him ho ought to ho happy
if tho daushtor of a compatriot had
got a start In tho world, but ho was
not, IUglit thoro Is tho dlfferonco
hotwoon tho oast and people out
west. Wo nro alwnyi glad to boo
unyono prosper.
On tho corner of tho street a man
was trying to sell a thing ho cnlled
a fos to a crowd. I hutted In and
asked ,hlm where ho cot that coyote.
"Thoro'B another one of them gol
durned westerners," ho said. "I
don't any more'n get a crowd worked
up to buy than somo follow who's
been out west yelps: 'Whnr d'yQu
g't that coyote?' "
My thoughtless romark had spoiled
his sale, for It was a suro-Onough
young wolf, nnd ho was keoplng his
tail concoaled under his coat, only
showing tho forepart of his body.
But tho largo- strong legs proved It
a wolf (iniokly enough.

In splto of flood nnd car famine tho
wheat export trade of Puget sound,
monnlng thoroby chiefly tho port of
Tacoma, broke all rqcords during
tho olovon months ending with No
vombor of this yonr. Tho total ship
ment of wheat for this period, as
shown in our nowo columns yester
day, wus 7,080,782 hilBhols, as
against 2,41(7,850 bushels for tho cor
responding period of 1905. Of flour
tho shipments havo also Bhown a sat
isfactory Incronso, reaching a total
for tho cloven months of 2,212,280
barrols.
Now that San Francisco has prac
tically dronnod out of tho running

Wlllamotto district. Portlnnd'B ox-
ports of wheat for tho first olovon
months of tho year woro 3,043,760

and of flour tho shipments from Port
land foil 1.042.70C barroU below tho
Bonnd'B flour export. Portland's
whoat shipments Increased from
2.320.333 buBhols during tho olovon-
month porlod of 1005 to 3,337,022
bushols for tho samo tlmo In 100G.
ThlH la a gain of less than 50 por
cent na compared with tho Bound's
Increaso of 180 por cont. In flour
tho Portland shipments fell oft from

' Portland oxportors oscrlbo tho fall

but on tho other hand tho sound'B
