rounded out the first score of their
united years, to find themselves in
comfort, with pleasant home, a fine
family of growing children, holts of
friends and a cheerful future. In the
roster of such events, the twentieth is

He Is Not Tha Man-
In obedience to a "despatch from
Sheriff Nesmith, of Monterey county,
Cal., received yesterday afternoon,
Sheriff Tomcroy released Watlcr E.
Drown, the young man caught on the
oil steamer VV. S. Porter as a stow
away, the southern sheriff declaring
in the telegram that he is not the man
wanted there for forgery, otherwise,
Walter C. Smith. It is not pleasant
to be held up on such pretexts as
this, but Brown had already com
mittcd himself to a compromising
position by hiding aboard the steamer
and was amenable to almost any sus
picion that drifted his way. He will
strike Inland today and try to find
work.
A New Hack
Prael-Eigncr & Co., the transfer
Company, yesterday received from
St. Louis a new rubber-tired back with
all the new and up-to-date improve
ments. It is richly upholstered in
leather, which i tufted in the latest
style. An electric button calls the at
tention of the driver, which is a con
trivance every closed carriage ought
to have. It is made so that the top
opens making an open barouche out
of it. The body is painted a very dark
olive while the box and running gear
are the conventional black. The strip
ing is a faint line of red. The com
pany has just received a fine pair of
draft horsesfrom the Willamette Val
ley, which were purchased by C. E.
Miller.

moment, it is likely to be sharply in
creased before the hour of investiga
tion and allotment by Judge McBride,

An Official Errand
Sheriff M." E. Pomeroy went to
Warrantou yesterday to serve the
warrant issued on Friday from Justice
Goodman's court for John Brice, who
it was claimed assaulted Jack Cobb,
the barber and smashed his glasses on
his face, It developed during' the
sheriff's visit, that after the alterca
tion between the men in Warrenton,
the marshal of that city had arrested
Brice and haled him into court on a
similar charge ,and that he was
mulcted in the sum of $10, and costs,
which he paid; and while the sheriff
will serve the procesa on the man
as soon as he can find him, it is a
moral certainty that Brice has only to
plead former jeopardy and go "scott
free," from the present case against
him. He has paid one penalty, and
the second cannot be enforced.
Aa To Alaskan Mails '
The following bit of information as
to the mails hence to Alaska will be
of Interest to those whose fathers,

office by L. O. Belland, to whom the
letter'is addressed by the Northwest
ern Steamship Company, of Seattle,
under recent date: "In reply to your
inquiry of the 14th instant in regard
to sailings for 1908 to Nushagak, beg
to advise that one of our steamers
leaving Seattle on the 8th of May will
connect with the S. S. Dora at Seward
for all points along the Alaska Penin
sula, Unalaska, and thence across
Bristol Bay to Nushagak. The S. S.
Dora is scheduled to leave Seward on
the ISth of May, and to arrive at
Nushaga about June 6th. This will
be the first sailing into'Nushagak for
this season. The S. S. Dora will
probably make monthly voyages from '
Seward to Nushagak up to and in
cluding the month of August, leaving
Seward on the 15th of each month.
Our steamer sailing from Seattle on
the 8th of each month. Our steamer
sailing from Alaska on the 8th of each
month is always scheduled to connect
with the S. S. Dora at Seward."
