Seattle Republican

SEATTLE REPUBLICAN SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 16, 1904 Governor Mead's Plums for Republican Politicians. If it be true, as has been charged by the Daily Belzebub of this city, that Senator E. B. Palmer, chairman of the Republican state central committee, is to be the real dispenser of the state patronage at the hands of [Image of a man in a suit with a high collar and tie, looking slightly upward. The background is plain and light-colored. The portrait is oval-shaped.] Under the caption of, "Will Republicans Give Democrats the Big Stick?" which referred to the state patronage at the disposal of the governor, the Seattle Republican prior to the late state election published a list of the appointments and their attachees at the disposal of the governor of this state and at the request of many of its patrons and readers the same is herewith reproduced: Private secretary of governor.....$2,000 Governor's stenographer.....900 Board of Control, three at, each.....2,000 Grain inspector.....1,800 Clerk of same.....1,000 Labor Commissioner.....1,800 Clerk of same and incidentals.....

NO. 29 If it be true, as has been charged by that Senator E. B. Palmer, chairman of t mittee, is to be the real dispenser of the Governor-elect Mead, or even to the extent of being the governor's advisor, he has something on his hands to do, for the name of those who want office is legion. It is currently reported that Mr. Mead has already received hundreds and, perhaps by this time, thousands of applications for positions under his administration, and to fill the few positions in comparison to the many applications for them is all but the task of a Hercules, to so select them without giving mortal political offense to the hundred and one disappointed ones. Senator Palmer has shown himself to be quite a diplomat in political affairs, and whether he actually makes the appointments or advises with the governor about them, it is more than probable that he will do it with such tact and diplomacy, as to not only further popularize himself, but also materially strengthen the Mead administration for future actions. It is very generally believed that Governor Mead has already adopted a policy for applicants for office to this effect; each applicant for a state appointment must first receive the endorsement of his county central committee, and subsequently the endorsement of the state central committee before said applicant's application will be given any consideration at all, which, of course, will mean much work and political diplomacy for Senator Palmer. LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON APR 29 1952 ICAN PRICE FIVE CENTS Curbstone Sketches of the Passing Throng "LOOP THE LOOP" IS RIGHT. The Seattle Electric Company has recently made a set of transfer rules that are very obnoxious to the public, which rules are pronounced by eminent counsel to be in conflict with the duties of the company prescribed by the franchise. There has been a statement made by the Seattle Electric Company that it is wrong, and contrary to the franchise, to loop the loop, and has attempted to hold persons up to ridicule and brand them as taking advantage of the company. The Seattle Electric Company is entitled to such rights as it has under its franchise, and no more. The idea that the Seattle Electric Company has that a person has not the right to make a continuous ride over the lines of the street railway, leaving home and returning to their home by walking a couple of blocks, is entirely wrong. Such a right the public has, and it is an advantage of location to have a home situated in the city in these localities. For illustration, say that a person gets on a street car at the corner of Harvard avenue and Pine street, comes down to the city, takes a James street transfer, and at the power house transfers to Broadway and gets off at the corner of Broadway and Pine street and walks a block or two home, by paying the railway company 5 cents and taking transfers that the Seattle Electric Company is in duty bound to furnish them under its franchise. This is a vested right that everybody living in that locality has, and the public should not permit the street railway company to fool the public or attempt to brand any person, lady or gentleman or child, exercising those rights provided by the franchise granted by the city. It is wrong to use a transfer after the limited time; it is wrong to use a transfer doubling back on the same line, but it is not wrong to loop the loop as illustrated above. Take another illustration: A person living in the region of Sixteenth avenue and Pine street comes down to the corner of Fourteenth and Pine, gets onto the street car, rides down to Madison street and Second avenue, takes a Madison transfer and rides back to Sixteenth avenue—that is a vested right that every person living in that locality possesses, and the street car company can not institute a system of transfer to deprive them of that right. That there are abuses in the use of transfer in the matter of extension of time, and abuses now and then occurring by passing back over the same line, and over a portion of the same line, is not to be questioned, but those abuses have been trivial and the public is entitled to an immediate abolition of the present obnoxious rules of transfers instituted by the Seattle Electric company. It may be true that the company, when it took its franchise, did not foresee that there was a possibility of having so many lines that people could loop the loop, but that was a matter they should have provided for at Kensington and Rogers-Peet Clothing NOTHING BETTER W. B. HUTCHINSON CO. 1401 Second Ave. and Union St THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN that time, but to deprive the public now of that vested right by the franchise would be a wrong and just the same as if the public or council should take away its franchise, or any of the privileges granted to the company under its franchise. The insulting remarks made by the Seattle Electric Company, and its employees, in regard to looping the loop is a matter that should receive very prompt chastisement at the hands of every manly man. The looping the loop is a vested right that the patrons living in those localities have under the franchise granted to the Seattle Electric Company. It is possible that the action of the Seattle Electric Company can be attributed to a fallacious opinion that it has a right to make a person pay to come to the city and pay to return to his home. If a person can return to his home by riding on a different line and then walking a few blocks it makes no difference to the street car company whether he receives a transfer that will take him back near his home, or receives a transfer to go into another part of the city. Looping the loop on the part of the patrons of the street railway is the condition that the street car company seems to complain of. From what has already been said it is evident that that is not a wrong on the part of the street car patrons, but an absolute right which they possess, and in the attempt to avoid this condition the street car company has promulgated a system of transfers that have become burdensome and obnoxious to the public. The passenger has the right to decide what route he shall take whatever place he wishes to go to, and not be put off in the rain at particular transfer stations and be required to undergo a number of disagreeable transfers when the same could be made by one transfer, taking a continuous passage in another direction. These are matters that it is hoped the city council will immediately take under consideration and compel the street car company to give the transfers as the patrons of the road may request. Many of the readers of The Republican will be surprised to learn that Thomas Reed, who once lived in Seattle and cut quite a swath, at least in his own opinion, among Afro-Americans, but who after leaving this city and living in Spokane, where he was equally as important in his own mind, but who some six years ago was caught re-handed burglarizing a house in Ellensburg, Wash., and after a trial was convicted and given a six years' sentence, was released a few weeks ago, and only remained at large a short time when he was again arrested in Spokane on a charge of committing rape on the fourteen-year-old daughter of Mrs. Rogan, who lived in Seattle some twelve years ago. He was found guilty last Wednesday and having only been liberated from state prison a few days, under the law he will doubtless be given a life sentence for his recent act. Mrs. Rogan-Sparrow is also in jail at Spokane, charged with aiding and abetting Reid in raping her own daughter. If she is guilty it would not be amiss if Judge Richardson likewise gave her a life sentence. --- FRIDAY, DEC. 16, 1904 ing Throng Robert Legg and wife, who had been removed from their home in Issaquah and brought to Seattle on the charge of neglecting their five children, were dismissed by Judge Bell, who decided that poverty is not a legal reason why a home should be broken up and children taken from their parents. The affection which the couple showed for each other with their great love for their offsprings inspired the judge to administer a reprimand and then release them. Whereas, there is much which should not be in the way of dirty children and unkept home, their affection is wholesome and their earnest desire to keep the family together, in these times of separation, is refreshing. Quietly in the night time the death angel entered the home of Mr. and Mrs. John B. Hart, 1310 East Denny Way, and summoned Mrs. Westbrook, mother of Mrs. Hart. The deceased had lived with her daughter and son-in-law since the death of her husband in Tacoma about one year ago. Her death is supposed to have been due to an attack of heart trouble. She was in her usual health on retiring, and her passage into a higher world, the removal of her motherly presence from the household, was without struggle or sound. A telegram from Zanesville, Ohio, recently received by James D. Hoge, Jr., of the Union Savings Bank & Trust Company announced to him the death of his father, James D. Hoge, Sr. The deceased was a sufferer from inflammatory rheumatism, and although he had been quite ill for several weeks, the end was, as is the summons always, a shock to his relatives and friends. Mr. Hoge, Sr., though never a resident, had visited here, and, because of the great interest he took in the welfare of Seattle and because of his son's business interests in the city, of which we are justly proud, there was a tie which endeared him to many, and they share the loss which the son is called upon to bear. LOCALS. LOCALS. The officers-elect of Trinity Lodge, No. 27, A. F. & A. M., for the ensuing year are as follows: A. R. Black, W. M.; Al. G. Grant, S. W.; G. W. Turner, Treasurer. Mrs. J. G. Gales, who has been indisposed for some time, is now reported seriously ill. Miss Clifford Freeman has been ill during last and a part of this week, but is convalescent and hopes to resume her studies in a few days. Mrs. Frank Smith gave a box party at the Black Patti Troubadours performance last Saturday afternoon in honor of Miss Ruth Freeman. The party consisted of Miss Ruth Freeman, Miss Georgia Selba, Miss Carrie Dixon, Miss Maud Neely, Mrs. Frank Combs and Mrs. Frank Smith. In celebration of her birthday, Miss Charlotte Dunn gave a matinee party to see the Black Patti Troubadours. Those present were: Miss Willa Lee, Miss Alma Clark, Miss Emma Houston and Miss Charlotte Dunn. --- FRIDAY, DEC. 16, 1904 The Magazine Club was entertained by Mr. and Mrs. G. O. Allen last Tuesday evening. The ladies present adopted a rule for economy in matters financial. Their friends can get the benefit of the plan on request. Miss Dora Thwaits will entertain the club next Tuesday evening at 518 Fourteenth avenue north. No matter how amusing the play or how much enjoyment you are getting out of it, it shows very bad taste to laugh out so boisterously as to attract the attention of those around you. It is said that on one evening this week several of our representative men held a meeting in order to draw up by-laws and such matters pertaining to the organization of a co-operation whose object will be the handling of real estate in this city. The departure is a good one, and if properly pushed will doubtless be a success. The co-operation will be opened for membership at the proper time. Mr. and Mrs. J. T. Gayton gave a reception last Tuesday evening in honor of Mr. John Fort, who left for Bellingham on the following day. Their guests were unanimous in pronouncing the occasion a great success. The merry tap of the dancers' feet and their happy laughter drove dull care away, and it was hard to believe that Mr. Fort was on the eve of his departure, for his smile was the happiest, his dance the gayest. Mr. and Mrs. J. I. Reams and their daughter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Ball of Denver, Colo., were in attendance at the Gayton reception. ROSLYN NEWS. Mr. J. E. Shepperdson has returned from his trip hunting up government land. There are quite a number of the old citizens working at mine No. 5, which is situated between Cle-Elum and Roslyn. Mr. Ed. Ody of Ronald died on the 5th inst. Mr. Thomas Ambler of Ravensdale made a business trip to this city during last week. The colored people of Roslyn seem to be very well pleased with the present management of the mines. All speak in the highest terms of Mr. Minzir. The ball given by Mr. F. Williams was quite a success. He expects to give another on the 24th of December. Mr. and Mrs. H. Graves of Verney, who are well known in the Coast cities, are now living in our city. The infant child of Mr. and Mrs. H. Robinson is quite ill. For this season of the year Roslyn is having very fine weather. Mr. and Mrs. F. King have been on a visit to their parents in Indiana. While East they visited the St. Louis Exposition, and returned home by the way of California. RACE Black Will Rub Off. Bishop Burgess of the Episcopalian church reasons along the right road in saying: "If the white folk do not lend a helping hand in elevating the Negro of this country, the THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN white man himself will be dragged down to the level of the Negro." Already signs of this condition have been seen in many of the communities of the South. It's another case of "the black will rub off." Educated white men in the South who spend their life among the plantation Negroes, though he is in the capacity of an overseer, soon adopts the customs of the Negroes and freely partakes of all their weaknesses. The Negro must be led to a higher plain of civilization. He must be taught a higher moral standard and he must be taught those things by the white man of this country, whom, from long contact with, he has learned to honorably respect, or both blacks and whites will sooner or later be confronted with a state of affairs that will practically mean national ruin, and surely national disgrace. Teach the Negro manhood, independence, self-reliance, morality and mechanism. Guarantee equal justice before the law and all the rights of citizenship, and in a decade more you will see a great change come over them. You will see better black men and women, and you will no longer see signs of a mortal combat brewing between the whites, ready at any moment to take to the field of carnage and destruction. Give us more such teachers as Bishop Burgess of the Episcopal church, Bishop Ireland of the Catholic church, Bishop Mallalieu of the Methodist Episcopal church among the whites and wonders among the Negroes for good will be wrought in a short space of time, while such men as Governor Vardeman of Mississippi, Congressman John Sharp Williams of the same state, Jeff Davis of Arkansas, Senator Tillman of South Carolina and a few more incendiary, riotous agitators will retard both the progress of the blacks and the whites, and foster race riots and disturbances from time to time. Learn a Trade Also. "I am educated," is a very nice accomplishment for any one to be able to truthfully boast of, but unless the young Negro learns some kind of trade or profession, and the former is far the more preferable, he, like his ancestor, will have hard sledding up the hill of life. Being able to write a Spencerian hand, translate the Greek and Latin prose and verse, successfully demonstrate the pons asnorum, measure the circles about the moon, and finally deliver "dictionary' until your tongue grows thick will not earn you a living in this age of specialties. You must be able to do some particular thing, and do it even better than your white contemporary, or despite your education you will be "a hewer of wood." The man, whether black or white, who takes up an idea and works diligently on it until he has mastered it as no other human being has, possesses the key to the open sesema from which he can secure those things with which he can sway the world at his will and command. Dixon learned to fight better than any one else, and two continents idolized him. Major Taylor learned to ride a bicycle better than any one else, and aside from making a fortune for himself he has been the guest of kings and queens. Booker Washington learned to teach school better than any one else, and he is today the second man of the United States. As in these cases, so in others, and Negroes who have selected one thing and made a success of it find themselves, using the vulgar vernacular of the town, "on easy street." If you are in school, decide what you want to do and then perfect yourself in that, and in life you will not want for work, and that, too, at your own price, reasonably speaking. A trained duster in a New York millionaire's home gets $5,000 a year salary, because she understands her business, and she is cheap at that. An accomplished artistic bootblack is a more valuable man in the community than this "educated man" who knows how to do nothing but shoot of his mouth. Do Not Be a Knocker. Some one has said, "If you can not speak well of an acquaintance, do not speak of him at all," which injunction we commend to those of our Afro-American brethren who seem to think the outlook for the black man in the United States is rather dark at present. A good rule to follow is whenever you see a black man struggling to get along, even if you do not personally admire him or her, give them a boost instead of a kick, if you can do so without it costing you anything except a little "hot air." If you can consistently do so, get in and help them pull. The success of one Negro in a community but opens up the way for either you, your child or your friend to do a similar business or another equally as lucrative. To be more explicit, a dry goods store in this city was carrying an advertisement in a paper conducted by a Negro. A clerk in the store was one of those who "don't like a nigger nohow," so he began to inquire of his colored customers had they seen the store's advertisement in the Bladder. Instead of answering diplomatically, lest an unnecessary harm be done another Negro, the answer came: "Well, I guess not. I don't have time to read that paper. You needn't advertise in it for us, for it don't represent us." What was said might have been true, but such Negro had hurt himself just as much as he had hurt the other fellow. In looking over the field no Negro has become a millionaire by abusing his brother, and, God knows, some of them have done enough of it to make them billionaires if they had only gotten reasonable pay for all they had said. Kinder pull together, my friends, if you want to see racial success begin to sprout all down the line. Put in a good word for Sam Johnsing's boot black stand, or anything else conducted by a black man, and if you can not consistently do that, do not say anything. A still tongue sometimes makes a wise head. OF INTEREST TO BARBERS The Pacific Coast Barber Supply Company of Seattle, Wash., have recently incorporated and are showing the barbers that their Tonics, Massages, Bay Rums, Witch Hazel, etc., are far superior to anything ever placed in their shops. In this connection let us say that they are placing only a few shares of their stock on the market, at par, $1.00 per share, and the barbers are snapping it up, as they are aware of the large profits that arise from the sale of these goods. This stock is going very fast, and you had better get what you are able to at once. They sell not less than 25 shares, which is $25, and will sell you any number of shares more that you may want.

There is, after all, ‘‘something new under the sun.’’ It is a Roosevelt Democrat. ““Wilson is a dead one,’ comes from the Piles headquarters. If so, why so great fear of one ‘‘dead as a door nail’’? If Senator Platt’s bill prevails the South will lose 19 members in the house. The South deserves to loose three times that many. Inasmuch as Senator Clapp is now theoret- ically a Seattle resident, we see no impro- priety of him voting for a King county man for senator. What say you, Senator? Franklin coal, for many years too valuable for Seattle domestic market, can now be had for the asking. It’s as good as ever, but too much California oil tells the tale. “The Seobey ring’? at Olympia, of which so much has been heard for the past eight years, seems to have been hammered into a chain, and now there is a missing link. “Black Patti’s show is a humbug,’ says a regular theatre-goer. Why certainly, of course. Don’t the American people pay well to be humbugged? That explains how Patti can earn $30,000 a year. We have read after a good many self- opinionated jackasses, but the editor of the Daily Times of this city does take the cake. What manner of beast, for God’s sake, sired such a conceited old monster? O. D. Colvin says he is going to have elec- tric light on Capitol Hill in sixty days. Good! Now let every householder who has been monthly robbed by the Seattle Electric Com- pany give him his business at once. Christianity has finally triumphed over atheism and won the latter’s strongest ad- vocate, Bob Ingersoll, for he promised when Missouri went Republican he would become a Christian. In the infernal regions we hope he is now preparing to shake the very ashes off his feet and take on a robe of everylasting life and sit down by the Father. Tom Payne has been given an indefinite leave of absence from his government posi- tion to do the senatorial stunt for Piles. Cleveland would term that ‘‘offensive parti- sanship;’’ Roosevelt, if he knew it, would call it official desertion. In view of the fact that Payne is outwardly working for the de- feat of the man who had him appointed, we are curious to know what he calls it. President Roosevelt has called for the resignation of all diplomats and consuls, THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN and of that almost numberless host the only one that will probably lose his position, thinks the Daily Belzebub, is the Hon. Harry L, Wilson, and for no other reason than be- cause the blooming, blustering, bragadocia at the head of the Evening Liar adopts that peculiar way of trying to take a fall out of Senator Wilson The Art of Conversation is a gift of the Gods, and yet to those who care to bend their efforts that way the re- ward is sure, for it is also something which, to quite an extent, may be cultivated. It is admitted that a selfish or self-opinionated person can never become a very good con- versationalist, for in their effort to outshine others’and their disregard for others’ opin- ions they become bores. There is a good rule: ‘‘Have something to say, and say it— brief.’’? A prominent speaker was heard to say that he was once called upon to address an audience of Japanese through an inter- preter. He would speak for a length of time and then wait for the interpreter to translate it to the audience. First he no- ticed that it took the interpreter a much shorter time to speak than it did him. He decided that he was using too many words and began to get briefer. Next, he noticed that there were times when he waited that the interpreter did not speak at all. He de- cided that he was either repeating his thoughts or failing to express any. He said during the remainder of that speech he worked as never before in his life to say something. His lesson might be advantage- ously taken home by many of us. Bits of Small Talk are not to be despised. They fill their place and for want of them many a person is styled as peculiar because he sits without speaking where others talk without effort. Whereas, a continuous joke becomes a nuisance, ‘‘a little nonsense now and then is relished by the busiest of men,’ and often leads a lagging conversation into deeper channels. Ladies are supposed to possess a greater store of small talk than are the gentlemen, but the tactful talker, woman or man, woes the God of Conversation until her gifts are his. There is a repose of manner necessary to the good conversationalist. To twirl a stick or a pen- cil, to brush at an imaginary, or real for that matter, speck of dust detracts the listeners attention and lessens the speakers powers of influence. The American people are credited with the possession of great repose of man- ner, and there is little excuse for the grown person who seriously lacks this, as we are supposed to learn it thoroughly during school days. To talk well one must read— to read is to think, and a thinking man can and will talk. Every progressive man and woman should read a daily paper, either the morning or evening issue, and several of the leading magazines should be read constantly. Silence Is Gold, says one writer, and: speech is silver. Be that as it may, the good listener is a rare jewel. It is worthy of note that there are two classes of listeners—those whose very silence pays us a compliment from the depth of interested attention they give; the others look, listen and endure in a kind of indiffer- ent, pouty atmosphere, which reaches us and FRIDAY, DEC. 16, 1904. 2 Warm Winter Wraps oe aR, : ae 4 »», Ladies’ Furs #7 ; .Y, Made and Re- f/ soa NA paired.

Historians tell of the host of ancient times who dissolved a pearl in vinegar and drank a fortune at a single draught, and newspapers tell of J. P. Morgan’s $3.85 ci- gars, but these exponents of the art of ex- travaganee are badly outclassed by a Colum- bus woman. How does one pearl dissolved and swal- lowed compare with a $24,000 pasture, main- tained for one cow? Don’t a $3.85 cigar look small when it backs up against a quart of milk from $4 to $8? This is no fiction, for the cow and the pas- ture are in Oakland avenue and Mrs. Sny- der, who owns them, lives in a modest home near by. The pasture consists of a square of land between Oakwood and Wilson avenues in the eastern part of the city, and real estate men have made every possible effort to buy it at the price stated, as it is very desirable for building purposes, but the woman has steadily refused to sell, saying she wants it for a pasture for her cow, and despite their pleading and the counsel of her family she persists in her determination, and the cow chews her cud while she gazes respectively at rows of handsome residences and auto- mobiles passing and re-passing on a fine as- phalt street, for the building of a large part of which the woman paid.

WILSON, Whom Editor Scobey says Holds the Strategic Point in the Coming Senatorial Contest. FRIDAY, DEC. 16, 1904 POLITICAL POT=PIE POLITICAL POT=PIE It is very generally known in political circles that Editor Scobey of the Olympian has no love for the Hon. John L. Wilson and for that very reason his recent review of the senatorial situation to be settled by the next legislature will be read with more than a passing interest and especially since he openly admits that Mr. Wilson seems to have planted himself in almost an overthrowable bulwark. Mr. Scobey's paper in a recent issue said as follows: State Senatorial Conditions. The senatorial situation has developed its elements of certainties and uncertainties, but as the time for the assembling of the legislature draws near, the alignments may be particularly determined. A close estimate of the strength of the several candidates will show that none of them will have nearly enough to nominate on the earlier ballots. Foster is credited with 35 votes; Piles, 28; Wilson, 25; and Sweeney, 22. Campbell, of Spokane, is expected to have about a dozen votes at the start. The Republican vote on joint ballot is 128, making 65 votes necessary to nominate in the Republican caucus. The vote of Piles includes the King conuty delegation and three from other counties; Wilson's initial strength is exclusive of King and Spokane counties, and he is the second choice of a majority of each delegation. It would be more correct to say that he is first choice of a considerable number of legislators from those counties, but the vote of King will be cast for Piles until it is seen that it is impossible to elect him. In Spokane, the situation is very much the same, the candidacy of Sweeney holding the local delegation temporarily from Wilson, although a majority of the delegation personally prefers Wilson to the local candidate. The candidacy of Campbell, which is in good faith, adds somewhat to the complications, and it is more than probable that a considerable share of the Sweeney strength will be found in the Campbell column. As the situation stands at the present time it is evident that it will be a long drawn out fight, with Wilson occupying the most strategic position. By agreement, the King county delegation, when it leaves Piles, is under pledge to support that King county candidate developing the greatest strength on the outside. If that pledge is kept, and there exists no reason to doubt it, to Wilson's outside strength must be added the vote of King, which would practically insure the thirteen votes from Spokane. In other words, conceding Wilson an initial strength of from 20 to 25, it is easily within the power of his friends on the King and Spokane delegations to insure his nomination. The Olympian reaches these conclusions from a canvass entirely disinterested, and checked and counter-checked with estimates made by other leading Republicans of the state. The figures leave only six votes unplaced. Friends of Senator Foster realize that he is under the disadvantage of making the fight against the field, without enough votes as- sured to bring him within the reach of a nomination at the beginning of the struggle. Mr. Piles is under the disadvantage of having practically no strength outside of King county. Sweeney is handicapped by geographical location, and the further fact that his campaign is managed by George Stevenson, who was also the manager of Turner's campaign prior to the recent election. Republicans are not feeling in a very kindly mood towards the veteran lobbyist at this time, and he will find himself shorn of much of his former prestige. Is it possible that Senator Foster had a premonition of being attacked next month with a severe case of the Piles why he left his post of duty at the national capital. Perhaps the state of Washington would get value received for investing $75,000 in the Portland fair, but we do not believe it. Judging from past experiences one-third that amount would be a wilfull waste of public funds. It must have been an awful stretching of conscience to bring about the pardon of H. St. John Dix, but this conscience that you hear about seems to be capable of doing the stretch act to a very high degree. Russia's Port Arthur fleet has been sent to hades and her Black Sea fleet sent home. Somebody or everybody seems to have been dead after Russia's sea dogs. Gen. Miles didn't get to be president, but Governor-elect Douglas has presented him with his adjutant generalship, which pays $3600. He has done this because it seems the doty old general needs the money.

We record the following development in building: The residences for whose erection plans have just been filed include the following noteworthy ones: Floyd W. Chapman will erect a1½-story frame cottage at 4018 Brooklyn avenue, at a cost of $1,500. Anna Baldwin has filed plans for a 1½-story frame cottage at 4615 Aurora avenue, to cost $1,425. Mrs. Mary F. Caton will build a residence at 408 Twelfth avenue north to cost $1,900. J. C. Schumaker will soon erect a 2-story frame residence at 419 Seventeenth avenue north, to cost $3,250. R. T. Ward will build a $1\frac{1}{2}$-story frame cottage at 708-710 Fourteenth avenue, at a cost of $4,000. W. W. Woodcock has filed plans for the construction of a frame residence at 4150 Twelfth street northeast, to cost $1,600. The realty transfers show the growing value of local residence property. Geo. W. Delling sold a lot on Fifth avenue, between Pike and Union streets, 60x120, for $13,500. W. K. Greene sold on December 10 a lot on the southeast corner of Spring street and Marion avenue, 60x120, for $9,000. James Bordeaux secured the lot on the southeast corner of Main street and Maynard from W. M. Patterson for $11,000. The lot on the southeast corner of Spring street and Minor avenue of the D. B. Jackson estate was sold to Alice Schwartz for $20,000. C. S. Miller purchased a lot between Second and Third avenues, on University street, 40x60, for $2,000. A business structure will soon be erected on this lot. Moritz Thompson and J. D. Lowman secured the title to a desirable double lot on the corner of Third avenue and Cherry street of the Amos Brown estate for $151,500. The rate at which building permits have been granted the past week insures for this month a fair average compared with the preceding month, whose numbers were unprecedented. The realty transfers during the past week do not take so much the character of the speculative things, for they were transfers involving much smaller sums of money but not less desirable property. We record the following: The Hill Tract Improvement Company sold 33 lots to J. J. Frantz on December 10 in the Hill tract for $26,000. These lots lie on King and Weller streets, between Sixteenth and Eighteenth avenues south. Building and Construction. In building and construction the enthusiasm seems to have waned but little. The building permits granted the past week show little decrease in numbers over the previous ones. A few large projects in building were launched the past week. The plans for a new graded school have been submitted to the Board of School Directors for their approval. The building, when completed, will stand at the corner of Summit avenue and Union street. It will be three stories high and will cost $60,000. It seems proper at this time to feel sure that the city will soon have a first-class market exchange. Col. D. F. May has been considering the proposition for some time, the plans becom- THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Photo by Pluntmer ing definite as soon as James A. Moore secured the lease on the old University block, between Union and University streets, Fourth and Fifth avenues. The plan in mind is to erect an auditorium and market exchange under the same roof, the former to be controlled by Mr. Moore. The cost as estimated will reach about $160,000. ways attending and extended s disease of ordina on by the close Thus, in univers petitive sports w little that will creditable enthu ball season develop It has been concluded that the southeast corner of Jefferson street and Fifth avenue shall be graced by the Church of Our Lady of Good Help, instead of the corner of Main street and Fifth avenue. The cost is estimated at $11.000. The northeast corner of Second avenue and Yesler way will be adorned by a 12-story modern business block, if the plans that are being considered by L. C. Smith, of Syracuse, N. Y., materialize. The building as proposed will cost several hundred thousand dollars and in the event of the new city hall being erected in that district, the above plans will no doubt materialize. The real estate dealers do not report as active an interest in that business during the week just passed as during the previous one. Not a few transactions were made during the course of the week directly from owner to purchaser, however, without the medium of a broker. The lively interest shown in securing property on and in the vicinity of Pike street seems to have abated somewhat, with a result that the realty movement extends in a southward direction in the neighborhood of Fifth avenue. It seems evident that there is not a large amount of Pike street property on the market at this time, except that it may be secured at an extremely high figure. The present owners realize that their property is returning a high rate of interest without further improvement and that, with the widening of the thoroughfare and other proposed improvements, it will continue to grow in value. Consequently they are not anxious to place their property on the market. ATHLETIC AND SPORTING REVIEW. Ahletics in general seem to suffer from two very depressing diseases, namely, the disease of acute depression, resulting from the reaction al- ways attending the close of an active and extended season; secondly, the disease of ordinary depression brought on by the close approach of holidays. Thus, in university athletics and competitive sports we find at present very little that will draw from one the creditable enthusiasm that the football season developed. In baseball the cloud of indifference almost darkens the entire diamond. Football. The game between the Seattle Athletic Club and the Astoria eleven showed interesting phases of football playing in only one or two respects. The line-bucking on the part of both teams was creditable throughout nearly the whole game. A few end rushes were likewise creditable, but beyond that there was nothing that belongs to the category of first-class football playing. The score of 11 to 0, in which the S. A. C. demands the former, is not a bad score with the exception that one goal was missed so far that spectators scarcely knew which goal was being kicked for. Captain Van Havenberg, of the S. A. C., did effective playing at end position and a few others showed up fairly well on both sides, the S. A. C.'s goal being in danger but once. Effective coaching would not be superfluous with the S. A. C. team. The game with the Multnomah Club, of Portland, next Saturday, will be an interesting one by reason of the good reputation of the Portland club in football athletics. Chester Murphy, of the Mutnomah eleven, has the reputation of a first-class kicker and some effective punting will no doubt be executed next Saturday. We predict a hard battle for the local eleven but with some hard and effective coaching until Saturday they will in nowise be in danger of defeat. Strong and snappy practice would work greatly to S. A. C.'s advantage on Saturday. The Multnomah comes here with a feeling of perfect composure, suggesting easy victory to which their supremacy in club football the past years entitles them. Basket Ball.. Basket ball has thus far developed nothing along the line of games but the schedule of the University team will be a strong one when once completely arranged. The team is practicing and developing well along the line of team play, which is as nec- FRIDAY, DEC. 16, 1904 essary in basket ball as in football. Tom McDonald, Loyal Shoudy, Mike McDonald and a few other old players give evidence of strength in the basket ball squad. The Y. M. C. A. team has had the advantage of longer training this season, and when the two teams meet we hope for a first-class game. The Y. M. C. A. team's evidences of strength are as marked as those of the University team. Fortunately, there has been happy interest taken in basket ball by the young ladies of the University and various clubs. This enthusiasm is as it should be, for the game was originally invented for the feminine athletes. The University team of co-eds is undergoing some effective training and doing very creditable practicing. The Meteor Athletic Club basket ball team, which has just been organized, is one which will no doubt be a factor in the coming contests. The team is composed of players who have the advantage of previous training in basket ball in high schools and other institutions, so that Coach E. C. Dohn has good reason to hope for a first-class team. Baseball. Baseball has almost lost everything that makes that game interesting to spectators. Patrons of the baseball parks do not like to see the outcome of the game announced beforehand by the the secretary-treasurer of the league. The public wants fair play even in sports. They want the best playing to reap the reward due to skillful playing. It has not been so with the games in the Pacific Coast League of late. The percentage which is being decided between Tacoma and Los Angeles by a series of ten games gives just as much evidence of the money factor as any time during the season. We notice occasionally the Angels are so far ahead, for instance, as to make the outcome of the game certain, and then in the ninth inning the Tigers run in just enough runs to tie the score and there you are again. The tie game means that another game must be played to decide this tie. The true object of sports is thus lost sight of, and the spirit is certainly a bad one to instill into competitive athletics. The public also feels the wrong, as we note it in the Los Angeles-Tacoma games. There is a movement on foot to organize another league which shall include the cities north of Seattle, nameisting in its promotion, suggesting the name of the Puget Sound League. Bowling. Bowling seems to be a true competitive sport, free from the money feature as yet. The past week was marked by some excellent scores by the teams in Class A, and Class B as well. The Arcades, who had the first place in Class A last week, seem to have lost their precision, and as a result they drop back to third place this week, with the Columbias and Centrals tied for first place, as follows: Columbias, won 14 games and lost 10; the Centrals having the same standing. The Arcades and Brunswicks follow, with 13 games won and 11 lost. In Class B, the Navajos and Siwashes are tied for first place, with a standing of 17 games won against 7 lost. The Utopians follow, with 15 games won against 9 lost. Individual scores were creditable, Byler, of the Arcades, sweeping 223 pins and Vogel 221. Amusements "For Mother's Sake," which is billed to appear at the Third-avenue Theatre, commencing with a matinee Sunday, is highly spoken of by the press throughout the country. The stage setting is said to be magnificent, the story absorbing and pathetic, and the comedy plentiful and varied. Notwithstanding th efact that it is but a few days before Christmas, and everybody is busy, the Thirdavenue Theatre is well filled every night to witness an old favorite play, "Yon Yonson." The question is often asked, "Why will 'In Old Kentucky,' 'Yon Yonson,' and such like plays draw big audiences year after year, while others, more pretentious, fail after one or two seasons?" It is because they are true pictures of natural life and this is what makes "Yon Yonson" one of the biggest theatrical moneygetters that has ever toured the country. "A CHINESE HONEYMOON." Among the early bookings coming to this city will be the famous musical comedy, "A Chinese Honeymoon." Its date here will be three nights, starting Thursday, December 22. This wonderfully successful comedy has had a remarkable success, not only in London, but at the Casino, New York, where it ran for over 450 performances, ar ecord that no musical comedy has equaled the past two years. It is entirely void of suggestiveness of any sort, and neither tights nor short dresses are worn. The company coming here is the original New York Casino organization. "THE PRINCESS CHIC." In the cast of "The Princess Chic," at the Grand Sunday, are several of the best known comic opera favorites on the stage. It has always been the generous policy of "The Princess Chic" management to present the opera with clever actors and actresses, and the dramatic personnel of the opera is significant of a continuance of this business-like principle. Theatregoers will recognize with the keenest pleasure the names of Gus Vaughan, George Thomas, Lyman Wheeler, John H. Henderson, Geo. C. Callahan, George Thomas, Tom Smith Martin, Thos. Van, Harry Monroe, George C. Ogle, Robert Algier, Jane Vander Zee, Caroline Lum, Julia Kohles, Dorothy Williams, and Sophie Brandt, as they glance down the programme. The chorus is a contingency that should not be overlooked in up-to-date opera. A bevy of pretty girls have become as necessary to this style of entertainment as brilliant scenery and costumes. A rich, new frame will tone up an old picture, but it will not beautify it, and it is beauty on the stage that makes the chorus attractive. The management prides itself on the youthful freshness of his chorus girls. OSTEOPATHY WASHINGTON INSTITUTE OF OSTEOPATHY (Incorporated). Established five years. Drs. Potter & Peterson, managers.
