The RAcE-TRAcK. - The half-mile
track recently cleared around the fair
grounds makes a splendid drive for par-
ties from this place, the road to and
from the grounds being excellent and
the track highway of interminable
length. Tho cleaning and grabbing
has been we'll done, and tho soil is now
being dragged and rolled to remove all
inequalities of surface. We do not
think O better selection could have been
made of Fair Grounds. They are about
the proper distance from Olympia and
Tumwater, can be easily supplied with
water at mere nominal cost, and are
situated on fine, level tract of land,
well calculated for ornamentation. We
trust that move will soon be made for
the erection Of fair buildings.

were W. s. O'Brien, the great bonanza

allup Valley and inspect the newly
discovered coal mines at that place. OF
these mines they had but poor opinion,
considering them Of little Importance

ROMANTIC INcIDENT.-The Portland
Evening journal, in abiding to steam
boat explosions on the Willamette river,
relates the following interesting story
connected with the loss of the steamer
Gazelie, at Canemah, April Sth, 1854.
Itsays: "Lieut. Grover had just come to
Oregon, and was at Canemah on his
way to Salem, when the fearful accident
occurred. Of course the Lieutenant
rendered every assistance possible, and
did all he could to save the wounded
and drowning. He saved several and
among them was baby girl. This was
twenty-one years ago, and only few
months. ago Lieut.. (now Colonel) Gro
yer, led this same infant he had rescued
to the altar and made her his wife"

GIVE CREDIT AND SAVE CREDIT. One
of the Portland dailies clips an item
from an Olympia paper which refers to
the proposition for damming the bay to
wash out channel. As usual, no
credit is given, and the item appears
rather peculiar for Webfoot latitude.
Tt says: This bay has been so often
damned by steamboat captains and
others visiting our city at low tide, that
we hope the job may now be placed in
hands that will prevent any unpleasant
remarks in the future as to our mud
fats" Probably Portland would rath-
er give out the impression that she is
troubled by mud fats and high tides,
than acknowledge that she is situated
at the " head of navigation" on beau
tiful Willamette"

DEATH OF JOHN C. BRECKENRIDGE.

DEATH OF JOIN c. BREcKENRIDaE.-
The telegraph announces the death OF
Gen. John c. Breckenridge, Vice Presi-
dent of the United States, in 1857, of
Lexington Ky., on Monday evening, the
18th inst. Mr.. Breckenridge was born
near the place of his death, Jan 2lst,
1921. He was educated at Centre Col
lege, Danville, and studied law ct the
Pennsylvania Institute, in that State,
and settled at Lexington, where he be-
came one of the leading members of the
bar. He served with dintinction in
the Mexican war, and was elected Ma
jor of the Third Regiment of Kentucky
Volunteers. He was at the close of the
war, elected to the House of Represen-
tatives of Kentucky, where he first had
an opportunity to exhibit his power as
a debater. In 1858 he was elected to
the Federal House of Representatives,
where one of his first public perform
ances was to deliver eulogy on Henry
Clay, soon after his decease, although
he was of different party from that
distinguished statesman. In 1856 he
was elected Vice President Of the United
States, with Buchanan as President,
and entered upon the discharge of the
duties of his office, March 4, 1857. He
was the youngest officer who had held
that position, but presided over the de-
of the Senate with much
dignity and impartiality. In 1861 he
Joined the cause of the Confederate
States and was appointed B!igadier-
General in the Southern Army.

Go FOR HER, KATE-WE'LL HOLD YOUR
BoNNEr!-Mrs. Jane Swisshelm got dis
gusted at the Brooklyn kissing, and
wrote an article for the papers warning
all ladies against the dangers of oscu-
lation. " Kate" in the New York
Graphic, replies after this savage fash
ion: MRS. Swisshelm's letter is quite
enough for me. 1 can understand just
what a dreadful old person she must
be. She wears trowsers, 1 am told,
besides that preposterous garment, the
'chemiloon.' If I was man I would
no more kiss such woman than I
would kiss n pair of tongs that had been
left out over night in a snow bank.
Kissing, when done innocently, is as
relishable rs strawberries and cream,
and as nice. If Mrs. Swisshelm could
only grow young and pretty, and take
off her trowseIs and dress like q Chris
tan, she would soon change her mind
about kissing. Her letter is the ex-
preston of cross old woman's envious
mind, and she ougi. 20 be ashamed of

Our GnLs. The lecture tonight
on :" our girls by Mrs. Gaylord, is one
that excites the interests of both sexes,
young or old, and since the lecturer is
a lady Of long experience as teacher
from the platform, she will doubtless
be able to instruct mothers aud fathers,
as well as the girls themselves. Mrs.
Gaylord has been literary lecturer for
more than twelve years, and with her
experience before thousands of audien-
ces she comes as no simple neophyte,
but as trained by familiarity with her
profession. The spelling match at the
close of the lecture, with award to the
best speller, and the songs by Miss
Ella, who is said to be fine pianist, will
doubtless render the entertainment one
of the most chaste and refined of the
season.

IMPORTANT SUIT. Steilacoom En-
press says: The taking of testimony in
the case of E. A. Light as. Pincus &
Packscher, which was commenced be-
fore Irving Ballard last December, has
finally been closed. There are in this
this case over four hundred pages of
closely written testimony, besides books,
papers, vouchers, receipts, etc., which
will take the master week or ten days
to so through, in order to sift out and
arrange the material portions of it to
present as his " findings to tho Dis
trict Court. Lawyers unite in saying
that the case is one of the most import
ant ever tried in this county, if not in
the district.

WIf there is any one trait of character
which is particularly noticeable in residents
and property holders in Seattle, and for
which they are to be commended, it is their
mistaken faith in the near future prosperity
and enlarged growth in this city.-Inteaigeil-
Ger.
That is the secret in nutshell.
Without faith no good work can be
done. The walls of Jerico would not
have fallen had not faith given Joshua
the incentive to encompass the city
seven days and seven times the seventh
day. When Olympians begin to defend
their town when assailed, and to stand
by it though i'll as we'll as good report,
to advance it by all means in their
power, and make it their pride and de-
light, asttopeopIe of Seattle have done,
then it will begin to retrieve its fallen
fortunes and bid defiance to tho sneers
of the bosses and station agents of q
def"nct railroad company. Oh for a
proper degree of faith in this emer-
gency!
