II viii be remembered that shortly
after the death of Davis, the man who
was brought here on the Dakota, suffer-
ing from q malignant type Of smallpox.
a friend of bis who had been in com
pany with him. named Thomas, was
taken down with the disease and was
sent 70 the pest house. Thomas is get
ting along well, and is able to be
around the house. Drs Minor and
Gale called upon him yesterday, and
from him obtained the following state
ment:
L came mp on the steamer Dakota
on the same trip with Davis. Did not
get acquainted with him till the vesse
had been out three days. He claimed
then 10 be seasick. He stayed in the
room Of the fellow who is up nights
looking after things. He paid 81 for
the use OF the room. When the steamer
reached Port Townsend l do not know
where be was. Saw him one hour
after leaving Townsend. He came out
and wanted . drink of water He had
10 pay the waiter for everything that
he gos. He was charged 81 50 tor
slice Of watermelon. fifty cents for
cup Of tea. etc. Do not thIpk Captain
Morse knew about It; nor do think
the Storage steward knew about it,
Davis left the steamer on her arrival ut
Seattle and went to hotel. where he
remained till train time, and was taken
TO the depot in the hotel coach
The Grand Jury are investigating
the matter. and some startling develops
ments may yet be brought 70 light.
Such certainly will be the result il the
inside facts can be gotten at. DIR
jackson of Victoris has refused to sp
pear and testify in regard to the mat
ter. and it will be very hard to get
enough evidence before the jury TO in-
dict the guilty parties. but the investi-
cation will have q good effect. as it
will impress upon our Legislators the
necessity OF passing more strict and
binding laws for the protection of our
people against smallpox and other con
tagious diseases.

THE APPROACHING COUNTY FAIR
The committee who have the manage
mont Of the approaching Fair to be
held under the auspices OF the King
County Industrial Association is COM
posed OF Roswell Scott. Capt Geo d
Hill and Jesse w George They havo
decided to hold the next exhibition in
Yesler Hall. commencing on Monday.
September Goth. and continuing till
Saturday. Oct. lat. The committee
have been to considerable trouble and
expense in awakening an interest
among tho more thrifty of our farmers,
in the hope that they may be induced
not only to attend the Fair, but to also
bring something from their gardens,
orchards. fields or pastures for exhibit
tion. If each one would only realize
the necessity of doing little what q
grand success the Fair could be made.
ALI articles sent for exhibition will Q
PASSED over the various transportation
lines at half fare rates, and will receive
the best of care while on exhibition.
In order that tho Fair may be varied
and attractive, our merchants will be
cslfcd upon TO prepare for the Fair
something from their various places Of
business Our numerous factories. mills,
foundries. furniture manufactures, ma
chine shops. etc.. will also be asked 20
make display of their wares. Liberal
premiums have been offered in the va
rious classes. and where msritorious
articles, not included in the list, are
exhibited, special premiums will be
awarded. A musical concert win no
arranged for each evening during the
Fair, and premium has been offered
for the best quartet aud also one for
the best comic song sung during the
Fair. either by lady or gentleman. We
hope all viii be willing to do some-
thing towards making the Fair o sue
cess. Half fare rates will be secured
on the diffeFent transportation lines ON
the Sound. and it is expected many
strangers will avail themselves Of the
opportunity afforded Of visiting Seattle.
As the work progresses we will keep
our readers fully posted.

A jury in Berne, Switzerland, ex>
pressed regret that the Court was IN
able to give man and woman named
Zyset death sentence. capital punish
ment having been abolished in that
country. The Zysets admitted having
murdered five of their children, and
there is good ground for believing that
they put seven 10 death. They killed
them to escape the cost of keeping
them. The plan was to stafve the lit
tie ones to death. unless they cried too
much; then they strangled them or
knocked them oil the head.

town on Thursday. from Texas. on
their way to Shoalwater Bay. They
were very bitter in thcir EXPLANATIONS

say they could not raise enough there
to feed . wooden goat. They were
we'll pleased with the appearance Of
this portion of Oregon. but their heads
were set and company Of cavalry

as they possibly could; bat We venture
they will wish some day that they had
