The British steamer Barracouta arrived from Panama direct last might, and in a week or so will sail for Honolulu, where she will be placed under the Huwaiian flag. The Aziec, Barracouta and Cuina were all listed as owned by the China Steamship Compauy, but were in reality built in England for the Pacific Mail Steamship Company and are in fact owned by | that corporation.

She wili be thor- oughly overhauled and sent back to the | old monitor as good as n=w. On the way up Lo thenavy-yard the Governor's house- | boat, the Poilywog, was met. She was | drifting with the tide, and Governcr Budd | was arrayed in dirty overalis and an old jumper making some necessary repairs 1o a broken-down engine. There was a jolly party on the Markham, so che boats jammed while visits were mede and re- taried. Harbor Commissioner Chadbourne, aided and abetied by Major Harney, has at last succeeded in geiting some liie into the contractors for the new ferry depot. Five times as many men were at work yesterday as tbere have been at any one time since the work began. All the trades | were busy. Lathers, carpenters. painters, glazlers, ~ bricklayers, ironworkers and laborers were hard at it, and the depot is at last beginning to look as though it were on the road to completion. It has oniy been oy keeping constantly after the con- | tractors that Commissioner Chadbourne has at last got them to make a showing. The little river boat Fruitvale, that nsed to run on the Sacrameuto River, has been sold by the Parker Transporiation Com- oy to J. 8. Kimball & Co. for the Yukon trade. On her trial trip around | the bay last Sunday she averaged 14 knots | and should be able to show her heels 1o | everything on the run bstween St. Michael | and Dawson City. The Fruiivale is to be | taken to the mouth of the Yukon on the | deck of the bark Rufus E. Wood. The latt+r is to sal about May 1, with a cargo of supplies and possibly she may taksa few passenger-. In the meantime the Fruitvale will be used on the bay, and next April she will be got ready for her trip to Alaska. he O cidental and Oriental Steamship Company's Coptic whicth leit here lasy monin for Hongkoog was in coliision with the Japanese sieamer Minatogawa Maru at Kove.

Of the Mail sieamers the San Juan is in | the dryvdogk, a biz force of men being em- | ployed in getting her in readiness for serv- ice. Extensive repairs huve been made on her hull and m:chinery, new boilers and a new propeller have been put in ana when completed she will be one of the best ships in the tleet. Close beside the drydock is the New- port.afioat butfar from being ready for sea. | Work on her bottom has been finished, | but on her sides there are many new plaies to be put in, while her interior ar- | gements are being entiraly remod- eled. The N port will be hardly recog- aizable when next she sails from this | port, so great are the alterations and im- | provements she is undergoing.

In slip the steel steamer rannie | Irwin bene built for the Wiider Steam- | ship Company of Honolulu is receiving | her plates, and it is hoped to have her ready for launching by December 1.

Her s.de and bottom plates are ready for the riveters, although the stem and stern vlates are vetto be placed.

Mayor Pheian took his medicine like a little man and neither by word or glance betrayed that there had ever been a con- flict between bimself and the members of tie board, In one or two cases he showed his ap- preciation of the courtesy exiended to him by tne board by deciaring measures carried before members had a chance to offer a second. unpleasantness brought into notice.

Ship-building is one of the first industries to feel the effacts of general business staznation and is as quick to re- spond to a revival. With no demand at home for imporis and none from abroad for domestic products and manufactures, ships are necessarily forcad to lie idle, while the building of new ships is entirely saspended. But there has been a radical change for the better within the past six months, and the prospects are that the improve- ment will continue indefinitely. Since the construction of the first war- ship on this coast the Union Iron Works has managed 10 secure enourh Govern- ment work to employ a lirge working force, but now contracts for merchant vessels are coming in to *uch an extent that the yards now present a scene of ac- tivity such as was never belore known. Twenty-five bundred men are now on the payrol), and his force will be increased to 3000 just as soon as work can be iaid out for them to go ahead with. While three war veesels—two for the United States Government and one for Japan—are in course of construction at this yard there is also an immense quan- | tity of merchani work under way or cons | abo the ermor -p'ate, and it bas been found necessary to cut 1 he force employed on her nearly one-half, The huli will b finished to the line of the armor, which is several feet below the wateriine, and the ship will be launched 1o await the time when the Government sees fit to supply the armor plate. A temporary structure of wood will be built on in place of the armor, anG when the latter arrives the battle-ship will be placed in ths dry- dock and her huoll completed there. f course, this will be more expensive than it would be were the armor put on before she left the stocks, but the company needs the sliv for another ship aund the extra expense will fall upon the Govern- ment. Tbe two passenger ships and the steel ferry-boat will be begun the day slivs can be made ready tor them. One of the for- mer Is for the Alaska Commercial Com- pany and will be placed on the route to St. M chaels, wnile the other 1s ior the Pacifie Coes' Steamship Company and will replace the Orizuba on the Mexican run. Both are to be of steel anda about 280 feet in iength each. The excess ol female births in Cumber- land, Cornwall and North Wales is far the average for the whole of Britain, Supervisor Smith mildly remarked that he thought the Supreme Court was s very rood authority on law and might be re- lied on to interpret it correctly.

MILES MEDICAL CO.. Eikhart, Ind. TORN-UP STREETS And Some of the Disasters to Life Which They Have Occasioned. For montbs the streets «f New York have been reeking w.th po sonous odors, anu this is also true of most cities in America. These deadly gases have come from the exposed sewer pipes, gas pipes, and from the turned-up soil saturated with malaria. Every breath drawn has carried some of these death germsinto the body. The important question to us all is how to prevent malarlal di-ease, or, having contracted it, how it can ve cured. Everv one knows that the best physi- cians always prescribe a st'mulant for such troubles. Nature must be assisteq, and pure stimulants alone can do it. But unless thev are pure, instesd of as. sisting they will injure. P of. Henry A. Mott of this city sav “The purity ot Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey (as simple tests will readily convinc ) should recom- mend it to the hichest favor.” Dr. William T. Cutter says: ‘“‘Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey contains no deleteri- ous or injurious qualities, and its abso- lute purity must recommend it to general use.” ‘When the pulse beats f:ebly; when the life seems low; when pains shoot through the body and make existence a burden, do not iake drugs. They cannot help you. Taze a pure and life-imparting stimulant, and such a one is Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey. Care should be exercised: to take none but Duffy’s. “A word to the wise is sufficient.”” @'z‘ It’s a Question of Honor With us to se'l our stock of Pocket- books fer just what we know them tobs.
