bled. The Kindergarten Magazine pro

and stated to Deputy Sheriff Weeks
that there was a bundle of books in the
court room which Jud;e McBride had '
borrowed frvm Mr. WIni.w.. and which.
Ilia-Honor desired. Mr. Weeks should
carry to the owncr'8 office. Mr. Weeks
promptly snatched his hat and made
his way to the court room, where some
one pointed out the books. The deputy
p!ck.d them up, and with a look of mild
surprise directed toward the bench a3
he realized the wotght or the bundle,
he started off and succeeded in reach
lug Mr. Winton's office after a hard
struggle. Upon his return a general
laugh greeted him, and it was then ex
plained that no order had emanated
from, the court. The victim of the joke
accepted the matter philosophically, but
remarked, as he wiped the perspiration
from his forehead, that he would care
fully Investigate the next order he re
ceived before executing it.
Evangelist Ford again preached to a
packed house at the J. M. C. A. hall
last night. This series of meetings is
being well attended, and quite a num
ber have become deeply concerned
about their future welfare. Mr. Ford
has a practical and effective way of
presenting his thoughts, and as often

does the sinner. The BapUst church

gina, the Rabbi's Daughter," written by
Mr. Stuttz, is to be published In a con
tinued series of "The Morning Baby,
commencing with Sunday's edition, and
distributed free. Later the play will re
ceive lfs first production on any stage.
John Electric Trulllnger is In a, griev
ous condition, indeed. He hears voices
In the night. Ghosts come to him and
sit for hours about his head, talking
loudly and threatening to hang him in
the garret if he does not do his duty
John's duty is to sing a song at the
next Elks' open session, and after try
ing his voice for the past week, he had
made up his mind to funk, but the
spo6ks (who are first cousins to the
Elks' guardian angels) won't let him
Can't some one send up a rabbit's foot
to the electric light foundry for John,
so he can be relieved of the fantads?.
THE POPULISTS.
Rumor That the Nominees Have Al
ready Been Selected.
It is asserted that some of the advo
cates of the populist movement have al
ready taken steps to form a ring and
fix up a slate, and that at the last meet
ing of the Blue Jay ctub the following
names were suggested for the various
offices: For senator, Mr. Fry, of the
Carpenters' Union, or Mr. Swenson;for
representatives, C. W. Shively and J.
W. Walker; county judge, E. C. Lewis;
commissioner, C. S. Dow or James Cu
sick; county clerk, Jeff . Crandall ; re
corder, J. H. Langworthy; superinten
dent of schools, H. S. Lyman; coroner,
Dr. O. B. Estes; justice of the peace,
CWarles Rogers; constable. Jack Reed;
sheriff, Pat O'Hara. As the Blue Jay
society Is a seci-et one, it cannot be
stated definitely that reliance can be
placed on the report, which is only
given for what it Is worth. Several of
the names mentioned are, however,
those of life-long democrats, and in all
probability the mention of their names
in connection with the populist move
ment Is without good reason.
There Is no risk taken by, joining
Hill's lot clubs. Everybody gets the

PLEASED SETTLERS.
Popularity of the Recent Decision
Against the Northern Pacific.
i
The news that the supreme court of
the United States had reversed the de
cision of Judge Sawyer in the North
em Pacific land grant case
has been received with pretty
general satisf tctlon among the settlers
on the Washington side. The lands in
volved are what have been commonly
known as the "lap-lands," lying along
the Columbia, embracing several hun
dred thousand acres, the title to which
has been In litigation since 1884. Those
who bought from the railroad company
will now, of course, be compelled to in
stitute proceedings for the recovery of
the money paid by them for their land
One of the largest holders of this land
is J. B. Montgomery, who had between
20,000 and 30,000 acres. The Northern
Pacific made a strong fight to retain
possession, and It was doubtless owing
to efforts made by that company that
the removal of Commissioner Sparks
was brought about some years ago. It
was Mr. Sparks who first held that the
title of the Northern lapsed upon the
forfeiture of the original land grant,
and his head quickly fell beneath the
official ax, Mr. Cleveland taking the
stand that he was too officious.

"Well, Jim, how's the ague?"
"Didn't I tell you about that? Why,
I went Into old man Sharp's field one
night about a week ago, and the old
man got. up and loaded his gun in the
dark, and cum me If he didn't blow me
full of two griiu quinine piiia. I hain't
had an ache nor shake since." Life.
BRAEKHUS' "CURES."
The Impostor Narrowly Escapes Re
sponslbility for the Death of
a Sick Lady.
It has laakad out that Ilr. Eraekhus,
during hiu stay here, tool; upon hlmseit
to cure the sick, and that as a result of
tho Imposition Mrs. Bue, who resides
on Arch street, had a narrow esoHpo
from losing her life. It appenrs'that the
lady had been seriously 111 for some
weeks, and about the time of Braekhus'
advent here was recovering rapidly un
der the care of. Dr. Janson. Mrs. Bue
was confined to her bed for a time, but
had just begun to regain strength and
move around the house when Braekhus
was brought to her house by some of
his adherents. The "ln.cplred" one went
into one of his fits, and ordered the
lady, in the name of the Father, Son
and Holy Ghost, to go to church. She
concluded to make the attempt, but the
exertion proved too much for her, and
she had to be taken home in a carriage.
In future the services of a regular phy
sician will be secured if there is any
sickness in Mrs. Bue's household. Mr.
Braekhus' excuse for the relapse was
that the lady had not faith enough, and
Mrs. Bue's friends think it fortunate
that the imposition was not practiced
before the patient became convalescent,
as the result might have been fatal.
Another instance of the manner in
which, Braekhus humbugged the people
Is told in Uppertown. The impostor was
taken to the residence of a lady who
was suffering from consumption, but
without being told the nature of the
malady which he was expected to cure.
As soon as he saw the patient and
learned the real cause of her sickness,
he coolly announced that the Holy
Ghost had deserted him for the time
being and he could do nothing.

THE SALMON MARKET.
Another Advance in Prices Looked For
In Alaska Fish.
The market continues fairly active,
says the San Francisco Herald of
Trade. The odds and ends have been
cleaned up on this coasts and also !n the
east, and as the remaining stock !s In
strong hands dealers need not be sur
prised if another advance in prices is
made by the Alaska Packers' Associa
tion. Low prices have stimulated con
sumption. We hear that the outlook is
favorable for a combination of Colum
bia river packers on similar lines of
the Alaska Packers Association. If this
combination is formed a better condi
tion o faffairs can be looked for.
