On the Goth of April those who want
to invest in opium will have rare
opportunity, as q. S. Marshal Hamilton
viii sell S88 pounds of the drug here at
auction on that day being the opium
secured in Two seizures by Collector
Beecher three months ago.
We rise TO remark that it would con-
duce to the clean and orderly appearance
of the streets in town If people were pro-
hibited from throwing distractions into
the streets. 1t is noticeable that many
throw orchard trimmings, cans, bottles
and all sorts of rubbish out into the
public highways for pedestrians to
stumble over.

Mr. Melville recently dug large well
for the Western Lumber aud Milling
Co. near their new saw mill at the head
of PoEt Townsend bay, and secured an
abundance OF good water for all purposes
at that establishment. 1t was first
thought necessary to bring the Chimacum
creek in by flums, but the Well has
settled all speculation and experiment.
Two engines pumping could not keep
the water down so that wor6men could
dig deeper.
