Sept. 2.-The avowed purpose of the city board of health to enforce the state vaccination laws irt the case of public schools which open on the 8th has caused much ill feeling.

SEATTLE, Sept. 2.-Two hundred rough clad men of the Riggers & Ste vedores' Union suspended the regular routine of their business session at their headquarters on Western Ave nue Monday afternoon and gave un divided attention to a 10-minute ad dress by Miss Gertrude Levy, the young woman who is conducting an energetic campaign for her father, Benjamin C. Levy, candidate for the nomination for county treasurer. It took a suspension of the rules of the union to permit the young woman to be heard and the president of the organization, to whom she first ap plied, was doubtful of the success of her request. However, he put it to a vote which resulted unanimously in favor of the fair applicant. "I told them," said Miss Levy, father's record as deputy for 15 years, and appealed to them as workers to assist a fellow worker to gain the recognition he deserves. They didn't treat it as a joke. I think I was too serious about it. They gave me a courteous hearing and applaud ed me when I finished." LOSES BARN AND STOCK. MILTON, Or.. Sept. 2.

They were all cred ited to poems I had never heard of In my life nud were just, such salient, striking fragments as would naturally whet one'sappetlte for tho remainder. For over a year I tried bard to locate those mysterious poems and enlisted i irti ft,. mm half a dozen book dealers la the j ,00K inera over search. At last oue of them wrote nie that I was wasting time and that the alleged quotations were merely Mr. Kipling's little joke.

I was mad for a while, but when I cooled off I bad a good big laugh. Of course you know Scott used to do tho same thing, and so, for that matter, did Edgar Allan Poe.
