"Tale3 of Many Cities; or, Confes

an interesting series of articles now
running in the Tacoma Globe, from

a lively scrambling on board the scow,
but the occupants escaped with noth
ing more serious than a bad scare and
a thorough wetting. The scow sunk.
"Look out for this fellow. He's no
chicken," is the legend on the lid of a
lattice box which went up on the Tel
ephone last night with Sam Elmore's
compliments to the Portland park
commissioners. It contained a seal a
year old, named "Jerry." They got
"Tom" about ten days ago. "Now
they'll have "Tom and Jerry-." What
they want to get there now is a male
gondola and a female gondola, etc.
Mr. R. P. Elmore, who last week
celebrated his 74th birthday while
riding here from Milwaukee, is a good
example of American enterprise and
progress. He went to Wisconsin at
an early day, when that then territory
was a howling wilderness, and is and
has been for many years, a foremost
citizen of Milwaukee, which boasts its
225,000 inhabitants. He is visiting
his son. Mr. Sam'l Elmore, of this
city.

a right to live and get along if he can,
ana tnougu we are sometimes a little
amused we have long since ceased to
be surprised at anything that the par
ty of whom "Uno" complains, could
say or do. Where there is no sense
there is no feeling; where there is no
honor there is no shame; and "Uno"
is wasting her time in writing com
plaints about him.
There is a grand army marching
into Oregon, week by week and month
by month. Some tarry on the fertile
fields of eastern Oregon, others roll
down into tho fruitful Willamette
valley; others come down here to
where the broad ocean leans against
the land; but all who are for work and
honest thrift will do well. And still
from the east and the Mississippi val
ley comes tho refrain: We are start
ing out for Oregon, 300,000 more."
The doctors of Ashland have formed
a trust, and make the following re

prescriptions, 8L50; obstetrics, and
one subsequent visit, 815; obstetrics
instrumental, 830 to 850; mileage, SI
per mile. Resolved that bills for med
ical services be presented within 90
days from cessation of treatment and
that interest nt the Tate of ten per

Printing is the art preservative of
all arts, and a practical printer or
newspaper man is always delighted
with a view of fine work. The Amer-
ican SookmaTier for April is received
and is a splendid specimen of elegant
printing. The presswork, especially,
is superb, though the superior quality
of the paper, and tho time and leisure
that the workmen can bestow have
much to do with it In a daily news
paper office such precision and beauty
of finish is impossible.
Reports from Baker" s bay are to the
effect that the traps are thicker than
ever. Jack Walker, last week started
to put in a trap where there was about
200 feet of drift used by the rill net
fishermen of the Aberdeen Packing
Co. He was told by B. A. Seaborg
that that wouldn't do; that he had to
have some place to have his gill net
fishermen have some room. The trap
still being built, the steamer Volga
steamed down and the crew pulled
up the spiles. So far, that bit of water
toward the Cape is clear.
A car load is a good deal. It is ten
tons 20.000 pounds. It is-also 70
barrels of salt, or 90 of flour, CO of
whiskey, 200 socks of flour, 6 cords of
soft wood, 18 to 20 head of cattle, 50
to 60 head of hogs, 90 to 100 head of
sheep, 9,000 solid feet of boards, 17,000
feet-of siding, 12,000 feet of flooring,
45,000 shingles, one-half less of liard
lumber, tenth less of joist, scantling
and other large timbers, 340 bushels
of wheat 400 of barley, 400 of corn,
680 of oats, 350 of flax seed,' 360 of
apples and 340 of potatoes.
The Astobian is in receipt of a let
terfrom Tacoma, denying a recent
statement in this paper, copied from a
reputable source, that Tacoma was
tottering on the edge of real estate
bankruptcy. Tho letter says such is
not the case; that everything is gilt-
edged. The AsToniAU is glad of it.
If we have none of that spirit that
could raise an angel to the skies we
are equally destitute of the spirit that
would drag a mortal down, and if Ta
coma people can build to prosperity
on ladders made of honey and chopped
straw, why who shall say nay!

Starting with the word Washington,
write down one-hundred words just
as they occur to you. Let your second
word be the one which Washington
naturally suggests to you. Possibly
it will be capitoL It may be presi
dent Take tho word which first
comes into your mind. In the same
manner let the third word be sug
gested by the second, the fourth by
the third, and so on. Be careful that
the third word is not suggested by
the first and second. Drop the first
entirely, and let your mind go from
the second alone to the third. Hav
ing written this list of words, you will
have furnished yourself with a cheap,
but very useful mirror of your mind.

The Sad Plight of Deacon Smith.
Deacon Smith seated himself in a
headless nail keg in Pete Krauss'
saloon last Sunday, not knowing that
nails were driven through the edges;
the deacon being very lean, planted
himself unusually deep in the keg,
and in trying to extricate himself, the
nails were ".run into his flesh. The
keg (bearing the tangible portion of
deacon Smith) will have to be sent
east for medical treatment Coiolitz
