bob tail OF the sp;n'n% party came
down on Seattle ike hired man al
a country hccdown. OF course he
rode into Seattle in his "elcgant
Pullman palace car, Queen Of the
Pacific. The invitation committee
provided the press gang with Il mud
scow, draped i'll flags, to 80 forth
and meet the royal mob. 1t was
evening when the Queen steamed
into Elliott Bay. The slantine
beam of the waning sun struggled
over the rocky peaks that guard Sc
attic Ike giant sentirels aud burned
a hole in the clouds of fog and
smoke that half obscured the view
that angels bad obtained by perch

jesiic Queen and scow met and kissed
on Neptuue's BOSCH, the cioud-aS
ii by magic-rolled away, aud the
scene was bathel i'll Il flood of glory.
For a moment all wa6 silent al the
beast when the spirit of lie has de-
parted; then Mcknight borrowed
a chew of tobacco from Hank, and
the band struck up:
Rocky my soul on the bi.lowy wave"
Amid the deafen.ng roar of thumb
BrnS cannon, and the soul-insririnE
music of a calliope and TWO hand or

largest city between Philadelphia
and Whatcom. Tne Marquis of
Gooseberry, Duke OF Diliberry and

was heard to ask Willard how many
more one horse terminal towns they
would have to stop at. Hank as
sured hlm that he would only stop
about fiji cen mlnutes-i uet long
enough to make an apology to the
natives ana pocket the $50, 600.
During all this time lager beer,
bologna sausage and corner lot,

walk alone. Willard went to the
University for few moments, de-
