THE managers of the various fairs
in our Territory are getting quite
anxious about the rain Indications.
Last year, the majority of Agricul-
tural Fairs on this part of the Pacific
coast were practically a failure. In
nine cases out of ten, the fairs for
this year have been appointed from
one to two weeks earlier than ever
before, and it is thought that the
change will prove judicious one,
and advantageous to visitors as well
as stockholders. Another failure
would be disastrous to many young
and struggling corporations. That
all may have propitious weather is
our prayer.

in Tacoma Hall, Monday evening, to
listen to the farewell address of Mrs.
Winnie f. Thomas. After the usu-
al order of business of the Blue Rib

eulogizing the Welsh signers of the

scented in Philadelphia at the Cen
tennial Exhibition. This was fol-
lowed by an original poem, read by
Mrs. Gertrude Wlnsor, as farewell
tribute and offering. Mrs. Thomas
then read a shorter poem, entitled
"The Shipwleck," and closed with
few touching remarks relating to
temperance effort in this place. Tue
exercises were interspersed with APP
propriate music. concluding with the
old but sweet song of Farewell
The proceeds of the lecture amount
ed to nearly $14.

THE best item we have to record, to-
day, is the fact that q number of
men are now engaged in putting
down a sidewalk on the west side of
Adams street. between Fourth and
Fifth. When this work is COM

reached by everybody living below
Fifth street, without going to Sixth
for the sake Of keeping out of the
mud, as heretofore.

The distance between New York
and San Francisco has heretofore
been put good deal too low. A
late estimate makes the distance from
New York to Omaha, 1851 miles;
from the latter city to San Francisco,
1880 miles; total 1861 miles. This
is by the Union and Central Pacific
route. By the Northern Pacific
route, the distance from New York
to the midway point of Puget Sound,
is 1926 miles, or eighty-six miles less
than by the former route.

IT is said that the "Blue Jay"
Base Ball Club, of Snohomish City,
composed of young ladies, have
adapted their mode of playing to
feminine peculiarities. Frlnstance,
the pitcher stands with back to the
batter and throws the ball over her
shoulder; the catcher captures the
ball with her apron, and the runner
announces her arrival at each base
by q shrill shrek. They play at the
Territorial Fair. and we predict
they will draw bigger crowd than
a cilcus.

WE are informed, by Messrs.
Woodruff & Van Epps, that the ex-
changing of school-books in Wash
ington Territory involves an expense
to the publishers of about twenty
five thousand dollars. The con-
tract secured by the company, how
ever, will more than make this good.
besides leaving large balance in
their favor. Publishers know very
we'll that small boys generally carry
jack-knives, and with these interest
ing Implements they illustrate their
books with cuts, nova day, as they
used to do in the days of our grand
fathers. 1t is the stereotype COM
plant of indulgent parents that a
new outfit of books must be pur-
chased for the children all around,
on the opening of every term of
school. And that's where the mon.
ey goes.

Of heather nations is prone to die
natural death as the mythology of
the ancients died out when assailed
by the light of Christianity. Not so
however, with the tissue of false
hoods promulgated by the crafty
Muhammed and his still more crafty
followers. There is just enough rec
osnition of the attributes of the AL
mighty i'll the Koran to give it the i.
the semblance of divine Authority
and cause it to receive a passing
respect i'll the eyes of half the CIV

ing borrowed light from the Old
and the New Testaments, it COM
pels kind of regard from its read

OF its success IN those countries

WASHINGTON, May 13.-The follow

the face value Of note of same denom-
ination issued by the bank or some null
tiple thereof. The required valuation
may, however, be made up of several
fragments of notes of same or different
denominations. In no other case can
such fragments be disposed of under the
