'Hie alarm of fire Saturday night
about 9:30 was caused by a burning fluo
at the residence of Mr.W. C. AUaway,
on Third Street. Nearly all oftheli-1
lodges and societies of the city were in
Sfceeion at the time, and the closing odes
and other ceremonies were dispensed
with in all of them, Borne yery ludicrous
things being reported. The fire did no
damage except to the ma&cles of the
members of Jackson Eugine Company,
who pulled the steamer up through the

The large barn of B. P. Barnard,

a great loss to Mr. Barnard.
Mr. L. Neff, who left here a couple
of weeks ago in company with M. F.
Sloper for the Trail Creek mines, re
turned last Sunday. Mr. Neff was not
favorably impressed with that country,
and says it is no place for a man with
out money. Hundreds of men are
looking for work with poor prospects
of striking a job. Deep snow covers
the ground, and there can be no pros
pecting done before May. Mr. Sloper
struck a good job driving stage. Mr.
A. B. Jones was at Grand Forks, where

A prize-light bet has caused trouble in
Port Townsend. On the day of the Fitz-simmons-Corbett
go at Carson, Tom
Newman bet !?1G against $20 on Fitzsim
mons with Scotty Kirke. C. H. Smith
was chosen stakeholder. Before the re
sult of fight was known the money in
Smith's hands was garnished by J. J.
Feuton, who claimed Newman owed him
that particular sum of money. The
case was tried in a justice court for
awhile until Newman's attorney secured
a stay of proteeings, pending a decision
by Superior Judge McCIinton, as to the
jurisdiction of the justice of the peace
in the premises.

. County Judge Mays Saturday exam
! ined into the matter of turning the Wol
! forth children over to the Boys and Girls
Aid Society at Portland. After quite a
i lachrymose argument on the part of the
! mother, she was permitted to keep the
youngest, a babe of 5 months; but the
other two boys, aged respectively 5 and
7 years, .were turned ovei to Superin
tendent Gardner, who took them to
Portland yesterday morning,
j As Eoon as he took possession of them,
'he took steps to put them in condition
for their new relations, the first step be
ing to give them a bath. This was done
! at the Elite barber shop and proved to
I be a circus. The little fellows thought
; they were to be drowned, and protested
j at the top of their lungs. After half an
i hour's soakine, some of the outside
j quires came off and they looked ns fresh
, and rosy as nature intended theui. Then
i they were put in the chairs for a hair
I cut, and again their imaginations were
worked on to the resisting pitch. They
' thought they were to be decapitated
! sure, every time they heard the scissors
j snip, and it was a job in which the bar
bers earned their money. It was a clip
i and a wriggle, a snip and a scream,
( The little heads would be twisted into
position, only to turn facing their tor
j mentors the moment they were released.
The circus attracted quite a crowd, but
' patience and perseverance finally ac
complished the work, and their first
' spring shearing was over. Then Super
1 intendent Gardner proceeded to rig each
of them out in a new suit of clothes that
! made them so proud "Little Lord Font-
leroy" would have been refused recogni
i tion. After thie they were taken to a
i restaurant, and the way they proceeded
to assist nature in taking thn wrinkles
j out of their new jacketH was a sight. A
; half-dozen more like them would have
I started a local famine. By this time
, they had become somewhat reconciled
. to their capture, and when they were
j put to bed the younger stubbornly re
fused to allow his clothes to be taken off.
He could not but believe that if they
were once off he would never get them
back again. A compromise was finally
effected, the boy giving up his coat,
which ho insisted on having placed on
his bed where he could hold on to it, he
going to bed with his pants on, which
even after he was asleep he tried to hold
fast to when they were tak.n off.
Poor little waifs! they have had a
i hard row. Practically parentless, hu
man maveiicks, flotsam and jetsam of
the great ocean of L!fe: bubbles on the
river of Time; escheats to the state.
Good homes will be found for them, and
hereafter their lines will fall in pleas
anter places.
