FATALITIES N TuuRsrON COUNTY

A man named Aleck Confer. aged
about forty-tive years, a logger, we'll
known to many of our citizens and uni
versally respected, was found drowned
III Squaxon Passage, last Tuesday. The
situation in which his remains were dis
covered indicate that he had commit
ted suicide. and the verdict of the coro-
ner's jury WAS in accordance with this
belief. 1t appears that the deceased
had rowed out into the passage in his
boat, and after weighing his body with
rocks had attached the painter to his
neck and jumped overheard. The re-
mains were brought to this place We'd
nesday, and inferred yesterday in Odd
Fellows cemetery, the deceased being Il
member of that fraternity, which paid
the last sad rites to his memory.
A man aged SO years, a stranger
whose name is unknown to anybody
near the scene Of disaster, was run over
and instantly killed, at Tenino. by a
freight train of the Northern Pacific
Railroad, Tuesday afternoon. 1t seems
that he had been left by the passenger
train at some station south of Tenino,
and had walked to that place and Or
dered his dinner, when freight train
came along, which he attempted to
board while in motion. Falling be-
tween the cars, several of the trucks
passed over his body before they could
be stopped, severing the head from the
trunk and crushing him in a horrible
manner. Coroner Pattison held an in
quest last Wednesday, but the result
elicited nothing further than what is
stated. The remains were buried in
the graveyard near the station.-Stand.

A SoCIABLR Doa.-An unheard of feat
by dog, which would seem incredible
If not vouched for by several witnesses,
occurred in San Francisco. Arthur w.
Moore, the occupant of the premises, is
having the house painted, and fer the
purpose of gaining access to the roof a
ladder twenty-four feet in length was
placed against the sides of the dwelling.
MIR. Moore is also the owner Of the dog.
Of which he is extremely proud. The
painters had assembled tho ladder yes
terday, when the animal. who is Of a So
ciable disposition, determined to seek
their society. There was no way of oar
rylng the project into execution except
by taking to the ladder. which the dog
proceeded at once TO do. Those who
witnessed the undertaking say he drag
ged himself on the perilous passage by
hanging on the rounds with the joints
Of his fore legs, supporting his weight
with hind legs against the lower rungs
Once the roof attained, the animal
made his way up the steep incline to the
peak, where he made his presence
known by licking an unconscious
painter. who was Sd frightened that he
nearly lost his balance. and Was in i'm
mineat danger Of falling TO the ground
beneath. When the painter regained
his balance OF body and cquanimity of
mind he at once ciutched the friendly
brute and descended with hica to the
eround. where the ladder climbing
quadruped was received with spontan-
eous expressions Of admiration.

GOOD EXAMPLES.

Victoria, b. c., Salem, Ore, and Wal
la Walla, w. T., are not only talking,
but actively moving in the matter Of
building commodious and tasteful the
aters, or opera houses. as it seems to be
more the custom to call such places now
adays. Whatever my be the abstract
views of individuals, or even of the null
titude, ON the subject of theaters and
theater- goers, the fact remains that these
institutions are now, always have been,
and in all human probability always will
b part of the civilization of all races of
men.
While in towns of the size Of Seattle,
or Indeed of either Of the others men
toned above, of from main lines Of
travel, dragging out hImdrum exist
ence, neither inviting the tourist, nor
visited by him, it might not be consid-
cred necessary to build an opera house,
Ne are very sure that such Is not the
true policy TO be pursued in this grow
ing young city.
Il will be but few months before Sc
attic win be on the all-rail circuit.
Whatever attractions in the way Of mu-
sic and tho drama may visit the north.
west, will be as accessible to us as to
Portland or any other city ON the line.
We may justly claim for our citizens as
high standard of musical and dramat-
10 taste a. can be found in any city of
similar population.
Few communities, il any, are more
liberal in their support of whatever is
worthy Of patronage than is Seattle.
Fortunately, her people are not only
able, bat willing, to pay literally for
what ministers to their intellectual graf
iacation. The hall which at present is
used for dramatic and musical represen-
tations, answers the purpose fairly per-
haps, all things considered, but il ia not
at all in keeping with the position which
the city occupies as the commercial oen-
ter Of the great Puget Sound Basin.
We trust, then, that We shall not be
considered intrusive or captious If We
urge our philosophical fellow-citizens
TO take this matter in hand and either,
through the instrumentaiity of a joint
stock company. or by other means, pro-
vide suitable building for public uses.
We are well aware that this matter
has been frequently talked over and that
moro than once il has been almost de-
cided to proceed at once with the erec-
ton Of an edidce which would be an ar
ohitecturd ornament to the city. But
~ vet the project has not taken definite
or tangible shape. We hope that il will
not remain much longer in allegiance.

The CHAPEL OF THE COOP SHEPHERD.
As had been previously announced,
the Chapel of the Good Shepherd, in
North Seattle, Rev. John C. Fair, Min
lister in charge, was re-opened for di-
vine service on Sunday, the 18th inst, it
being, according to the Church Caien-
dar. the oath Sunday after Trinity. At
1890 am. Rev. Mr.. Fair administered
the sacrament of baptism TO six chill
dren. At III am. Rev. u. II. Watson, Rec
tor of Trinity Church, preached a ser
mon appropriate to the occasion, taking
for his text the words found in St.
Matthew, 18th chapter and Sth verse:
10 what purpose is this wastc!' We
regret that We must dispense, owing to
unlocked for disappOinments, with an
abstract of the sermon. After the ser
mon the Holy Communion was admin
istered to the congregation, it being the
first time that interesting event has
The day was very beautiful one, and
the Chapel was crowded to its utmost
capacity, while many were turned away.
Trinity Church Was also crowded in the
evening. The Chapel of the Good Shep-
herd has been handsomely improved
and beautifully adorned. Clergy rooms
have been added to the south side of
the building. the extension occupying a
space 24x12I5 feet, comprising two
rooms, both hard finished and con-
nected by folding doors. They will be
used for bible and infant classes. Guild
meetings. etc. The Chapel proper has
besn newly plastered and painted with
in and without, the wall being taste
fully tinted in buff with blue borders,
and stained glass windows added. The
Chancel has been greatly improved by
the building Of a rOomy platform with
out the rail, and by the erection of a
"Reredos' behind the altar. Within
the two side panels appears the folio Y :
ing inscriptions: ''One Lord, One Faith,
One Baptism, One God. and Father of
ALL" while in the center panel is beauti-
full design of cross, crown and anchor
combined, over which is descending
dove symbolical of God, the Holy
Ghost. Midway between the "Reredos"
and the ceiling, upon the east wall,
is seen this text, finely executed III blue,
red and gold lettering, Holiness be-
cometh thine house, y, Lord. forever"
The above improvements were made
at the expense OF $500, Bishop Pad
dock contributing part Of this sum,
while the remainder Is assumed by the
minister in charge, until the debt is paid
by the North Seattle people and friends.
Divine services will DO regularly held
on the third Sunday morning and
fourth Sunday evening in each month.

account of the wonders of vegetable
growth in Dakota. The letter is dated

tember 9th:
The farmers here in the spring plant
a beet seed, near the house, and IN the
fall pull the best and brick up the hole
for cistern. Seriously, this is won
dsrful country. You can raise nearly
everything you can in Ohio, excepting
corn and pumpkins. The seasons are
too short for corn. Pumpkins could be
raised here. but the vines grow So fast
that they wear the pumpkins out drag
