Myer, the musio teacher, has a friend who lives on top | of a bluff on the Sound, north of the city. Stairs lead from the top of | the biuff to the beach. The waves at high tide undermined the stairs, dation. They had worked half a day, in water to their watsts, when It be | gan to sprinkle | It was their custom to quit work when ft rains, “So when it began to sprinkle, the whole gang came out of the water and went home,” reports Myer. see ee Young Mr. Fred T, Pitney, practical humorist of West Galer at., expresses the vehement opinion that the friends who put marshmallow dips in one of his coat pockets were carrying things too far. The marshmallow dips were put in Pitney’s pocket while he was sitting at @ soda counter on Second ave. He says he might have accepted this drollery without resentment. “But when |! reached down with the other hand, I found they had put fly paper tn the other pocket,” complains the outraged Mr. Pitney. REPORTS JITNEYS LOSE MONEY 'f Chief Engineer Phipps of the state public service com- mission ie correct in conclusions which he sets out in an offi- cial report, the “jitney” busses have been losing, instead of making money. Incidentally, of course, the street car company hae also been losing money, he says, and therefore he con- cludes that the situation warrants some “looking Into.” According to Phipps, the average income of the “jitney” bus is $6.16. Figuring an average of 10 miles an hour and @ 10-hour day, Phipps concludes that er the costs of operation are deducted, the ow of a Ford or similar make would earn only $2.33 as his daily Phipps’ report aleo shows a decrease of 48973 passengers on the Seattle Electric cars, with a decrease in dally revenue of $2,448.65 January 18, 19 and 20, as compared with January, 1914, Phipps’ report will be submitted to Gov. Reynolds, SEATTLE MANUFACTURERS SLOW Director William J, Harris of the census bureau today complained that a large number of Seattle manufacturers have neglected to make the reports required for the census of 1914, This not only delays pub- Meation, but adds greatly to the cost of the work. The law declares that a census of manufactures shall be taken every fifth year. The blanks on which to make the reports were mail- od to all manufacturers, with the request that the returns be forwarded to the census bureau by January 15. Comparatively few reports have been received, and a large number of those that have reached the office are defective, Harris says. Unless ail manufacturers make proper returns, the relative stand- ing of one industry with another and of one city with another will be seriously affected.

H. Mason, an ex-police of- ficer of 20 years’ experience with boy and young men crim- Inale, speaking before a large audience of men at one of the features of the Y. M. C. A. Sunday club, yesterday afternoon. “To eradicate euch an extensive evil” continued Mason, “requires the support of public sentiment. The prese le neces sary to create that sentiment. it takes courage for @ paper to be the first to start euch a fight, In face of the powerful forces behind the traffic, which ie a greater curse to young men than the use of liquor. Ninety-five per cent of the youthful crimi- nals in the country are excessive users of cigarets or dope in some form.” Mason served as especial investigator for the Parkhurst vice crusade and is known as @ boy reformer in many of the largest cities in the United States and Canada. LIBERTY HOTEL LODGER STABBED Charles Fisher, 28, was dozing off into pleasant dreams at the Hotel Liberty, when he heard a noise like the bombardment of Rheims and felt a bomb drop plumb into his face.
