Next Wednesday evening the just
ly celebrated Jay Riaps dramatic
company will give a rendition of the
thrilling and popular drama "Uncle
Toms Cabin" in CannOn's Hall.
The troupe is large one made up
Of some Of the best actors on the
road, and we feel safe in promising
our people a rare treat. Newspaper
critics everywhere speak in the most
flattering terms Of the company, and
the name Of Jay Rial alone is sufiic-
tents to draw a crowded house wher-
ever the organization is known. The
piece selected for this city is full of
dramatic interest, and though an old
stage play is always worth seeing.
We bespeak for the company rous-
ing house, and feel satisfied that the
performance will give entire satis-
faction.

Donald Urquhart, Of Ritzvillc, was
in town Thursday for the purpose of
making proof on his pre-emption.
His case was one Of peculiar diflicul-
ties, rtising some points which had
never before been before this land
Office for adjudication. His claim
being partly in this and partly in the
Yakima land districts, also covering
40 acres Of railroad land. lie was
fortunate enough to secure the ser
vices Of Judge Lewis, an old land
lawyer, whose familiarity with the
practice safely carried him over all
difficulties and secured the land for
him.

Friday morning our old friend J.
II. Bishop left at our office half sack
of potatoes, or we might more cor
rectly say a half-Sack Of potato, as
the bulbs were the largest we ever
saw. The samples came from Squire
Bancrofts farm, near Pennington,
and were planted on the 18th Of June,
and have never had a drop Of water.
What they would have been had they
received the benefits of rain only the
widest Imagination could depicture.
The potatoes yielded over three hun
dred bushels to the acre. Mr.. Bishop
also put in a few square rods to pota-
toes at the same time for family use,
and the harvest has been so prolific
that he has several surplus tons on
hand to sell. Talk about soil. Why
there is no country that can surpass
WashingtonTerritory reproductive
ness.

1t is hardly necessary to call attcn-
tion to the card of Charles Swceny
4 Company, as it occupies so much
space that the eye could not fail to
notice it. This firm is doing 50 large
a business that time could not be
taken to write outan advertisement.
While we wait their leisure, we may
state that the, consumer will find
everything in that establishment
kept in a first-class house. The gen
tlemen are receiving goods daily from
the East, and are able to sell lower
than ever before. The boys are kept
on the trot day and night, and their
sales are enormous. They are doing
as large a business to-day any house
in the Territory, and the trade Is
increasing right along. Call and eX-
anime their winter stock of goods.

In all countries where the winters
are marked by cold weater there is a
time in the fall when building Oper-
ations cease because it is considered
impracticable to continue. But in
Spokane Falls no such feeling Is
manifested among mechanics and
contractors. Here the carpenter
takes hold Of the most pretentious
building, even at this season of the
year, with just as much confidence
in his ability to complete the job as
though it were the middle Of sum-
mer. From week to week as new
houses spring up around US we think
well this must be the last, but we are
again and again agreeably disap-
pointed rs our attention is attracted
to the rattle Of the hammer in new
quarters. The only evidence Of the
lateness Of the year may perhaps be
a little more rapidity in the manner
of swinging the tools, as though the
builder wanted to push things so far
that the falling snow could not pre-
vent the finish of the work. No
town on the coast can ever boast
Of such rapid growth, considering
the class Of buildings erected, as that
of Spokane Falls during the past
summer. This improvement has not
been confined to any one particular
quarter, but embraces the entire
city. Residences, public buildings
and brick blocks have sprung up like
magic and the end is not yet. 1t is
perfectly safe to say that there are
over thirty buildings at the present
time in the hands of carpenters, and
Il number more are expected to be

MADE A MAN OF HIM.

Mr.. c. Q. WHEELER, No. % Austin Street, Cam.
bridgeport, Mass, makes the following remarkable
statement. On April q, 1883, he writes as follows:
II have been troubled with kidney disease for nearly
twenty years. Have suffered at times with terrible
pains in my back and limbs. I used many medicines,
Remedy. i purchased a bottle of A. P. ellison, $50
fremont Street, Boston, and before I had used this
one bottle 1 found relief, and continuing Its use, my
pains and weakness all disappeared, and l feel like a
new man, with new life and vigor. Hunts Remedy did
wonders for me, and 1 have no hesitancy in recon-
mcndfng 1t to all afflicted with kidney orliver diseases,
as 1 am positive that byits use they will find immediate
relief. You may use this letter in any way you choose.
SO that the people may know of a sure medicine for
the cure of all diseases of kidneys and liver"

HOME AND FARM.

The massachusetts, Poughmam says
Mt whenever we sell hay we begin to
I'll VII the fertility of our farms, and must
eesr,.cc the lost elements by fertilizers

Ground oats are said to form one of
.ho hest feeds to promote a flow of milk,
.;thcr in cows, ewes or in breeding
enms The oats will grind better if one
s SuSlel of corn is mixed with every two
or three of the lighter grain.
There is a grade of wheat in Oregon
.,ovn as Goose wheat, so called be-
ca,1se it originated from a few grains
tound in the crop of a wild goose. The
wheat has a hard outer husk, and the
hran is very course; it makes a peculiar
prode of flour. Its exact duplicate is
fonnd in a small province of Spain.

"A dish of oysters prepared in this
way is very nice for tea: Toast some
slices of bread until they are well
drowned on both sides. Butter them on
both sides. Put the slices around the
sides of a pudding-dish. Then put a
LAYER of oysters we'll seasoned with but
ter. pepper and salt in the bottom, and
cover it with bread crumbs, and so on
mill the dish is full. Pour over all a
coffee-cupful of hot water, or enough to
moisten the bread and toast. Bake for
three-quarters of an hour in hot oven.
-Chicago Blade.
Dried corn ought to be made pala-
table, and be frequently seen on the
dinner table, but many people who like
corn dislike this stuff because it is not
cooked properly; it should always be
put to soak in lukewarm water the af.
%ternoon of the day before it is to be
eaten. Do not throw away the water
in which it is soaked, or then you lose
much of the best there is in the corn.
Then early, at least two hours before
dinner, put it in a saucepan over the
fire. and let it cook slowly but steadily
until it is tender. A little cream added
to the milk, butter, pepper, and salt are
desirable, and 8 teaspoonful of sugar
will sometimes do wonders in giving
flavor TO the dish.-N. Y. Post.

She began to feel easier, she could sleep well, and after

The National Exposition

continued till June %, in the great Expo
sition Building, including a large space In.
der temporary cover, and occupying eleven
exhibition ever held in the world. Here
are locomotives, cars, r~unning-gear, inte-
rior furnishings, freight-car appliances,
track goods, rood and iron working ma
chinery, metals, oils, paints, varnishes, sta.
ton and office appurtenances, pumps water
and a long list of miscellaneous goods
used in the railway service. Here may be
seen the first locomotive built in this coun.
try and in England, and the latest and best,
showing the results of the inventive genius
n experience of fifty years in railway
the country here show their best work, in.
viting examination, comparison and criti-
cism. A striking feature of the EXPOSE.
ton is the large display of massive ma
chinery working with the greatest pre-.
cision and the least possible friction. Hero
are single exhibits large and attractive
enough to make the sight-seer feel amply
repaid for the cost of his visit. But multi
piled indefinitely, and variedin a Thousand
forms over an immense space, the whole
constitutes a colossal exhibition of railway
appliances, from the largest engine and To-
comotive to the railroad watch and con.
ductor's punch.
An opportunity to see such a magnificent
railway exhibition as this may not occur
again in this century. 1t would be a great
mistake to regard this exhibit as interest
ing mainly to railroad men. It has an in
terest Of vast significance to the people, the
products of whose labor turn the wheels of
the locomotive. The value of their farms,
their mills, their mines, their factories and
their labor depend on the problem, how to
make the bestand cheapest railway service,
which this Exposition is the first great
public cooperative attempt to solve. And
that the people, in whose true interests this
Exposition is held, may see this magnif-
cent display, the railroad companies have
largely reduced their rates to all who
visit it.
