He resisted and engaged in a strug gle with them and was badly beaten. His cries foiL help awakened the seining crew, who came to the rescue, when the would-be thieves jumped into their fishboat and escaped' with out succeeding in getting a single fish. As it was very cloudy they could not be followed up, but left a peculiar shaped big rimmed hat be hind." The Baptist Social. The Baptist supper and entertain ment at the Y. M. C. A. rooms last evening was a very pleasant affair and resulted in the addition of $30 to the church treasury. A reading by Mrs. Snyder wa3 well received, and the quartette by Rev. M. L. Rugg, Dr. Estes and Misse3 Dickinson and Adams, was very much enjoyed by all. Dr. Estes read a char acter sketch and Mrs. Estes sang "Pass Under the Rod." Miss Edith Conn rendered a tem perance piece with considerable pow er for one so young. Miss Emma Warren gave a reading which, as usual, was first-class. Bv request Miss Dickinson gave "The Old-Time Religion" to the de light of all.

Edward Perry, a sailor, aged 25, who came here from San Diego on the Merom, lost his life in a foolish fashion yesterday at 1230 p. m. He had been drinking freely for some days, and going out on the steps in the rear of Grant Bros', boarding house, said, 'Tm going to take a swim" and removing his shoes and stockings, plunged into the water and swam around for several minutes. The cold water muBt have cramped aim: for in a few minutes he gave a cry and sank, rising and sinking the second time before assistance could reach him. The body was recovered at 3 o'clock. The fnneral will take place to-morrow. U err Most. Herr Most says: "Property is rob bery. Robbery ought to be extin guished. Therefore, property must go.

Ojstcrs In Every Style At the Central Restaurant, next to Foard & Stokes'. SEATTLE "SILVER SALMON." It is generally known that fresh salmon in both the retail and whole sale markets, are from one hundred to three hundred per cent, higher this year than any previous year. Heretofore, until the present year, the packers and canners have paid the Indians and other fishermen who have taken the fish from the water all the way from 1 to 5 cents eaoh, and families and restaurants could get an ample supply of silver salmon at 10 cents for a six-pound fish, 35 cents for a ten-pound fish, and 50 cents for fish weighing twelve pounds or over. Indians peddled the fish about the streets and were glad to dispose of them at those figures, and were gen erally very happy if they got even less than the prices above quoted. This vear, however, things are very differ ent. The Indians do not peddle fish about the streets; they sell their catch to the canneries or to the retail fish markets. The canneries pay them 10 cents, for silver salmon and 35 cents for jack salmon, and the retail dealers pay about the same price. The deal ers early in the season formed a sort of compact, or combination, to charge hotels and restaurants 4 cents per pound, and this price has been main tained. A fair sized jack salmon will weigh 20 pounds, and will net the retail dealer 80 cents. Restaurants generally prefer these large sized fish as they make a fine show in the win dow, and half the people who pass by imagine they are Columbia river salmon. Under the present arrange ments six pound salmon retail at 25 cents each to families, eight-pound fish 35 cents, anything over eight pounds is sold at four cents per pound. A reporter called on the pro prietor of a stand at the foot of Co lumbia street yesterday, to ascertain how it was that the fishermen can maintain such stiff prices this year, when they never had been able to do it in previous years. The dealer who is a very intelligent man, said: ''The conditions this year are very differ ent from any previous year that I have ever known. In the first place, the run of fish is not extra large, al though the fish are of fine quality, and where there has been only one cannery heretofore, now there are four or five to be supplied from Seat tle bay. Then again, we are doing a large business in shipping fresh fish to points in eastern Washington. We clean and box the fish, put ice on them, and ship them. The only ex pense we are to is the ice, which cosls about one cent for each fish. The consignees pay the freight, and we have all the orders we can fill; our rates are jnst about the same as our retail prices, so we don't care wheth er we sell any fiah here in Seattle or not One of the best points east of the mountains is Ellensburg, where we send large shipments of fresh fish every few days." Post-Intelligencer. In Brief, and to The Point. . Dyspepsia is dreadful. Disordered liver is misery. Indigestion is a foe to good nature. The human digestive apparatus is one -of the most complicated and wonderful things in existence. It i3 easily put out of order. Greasy food, tough food, sloppy food, bad cookery, mental worry, late hours, irregular habits, and nany other things which ought not to be, have made the American people a na tion of dyspeptics. But Green's August Flower has done a wonderful work in reforming this sad business and making the American people so healthy that they can enjoy their meals and be happy. Remember: No happiness without health. But Green's August Flower brings health and happiness to the dyspeptic. Ask your druggist for a bottle. Seventy-five cents. Archbishop Riordan in Portland.
