The 9th anniversary of Mr.. and Mrs.
W. W. Munsell's wedding was celebrated
at their residence, on 9th avenue, last
Thursday evening. A large number OF
of guests participated and all unite in de-
scribing it as most enjoyable affair.
Mr.. and Mrs. Munsell were quite success.
full in all the arrangements, and all were
richly entertained till after midnight.
Songs, violin and piano accompaniment,
charades, tableaux and refreshments were
the items of entertainments. The re-
ception of the guests by the host and
hostess was most handsomely done. The
execution of some of the charsdes by the
guests indicated some excellent talent in
that direction. The Local Hit en- the
A. 7. & s. F. round house project was
quite good and seemed to have more
truth than poetry in its application. No
one could withhold pity from the poor
old land agent whose life was worn out
in waiting for the execution of the pro-
posed enterprise. Mr.. and Mrs. Munsell
are proving themselves most valuable
citizens, and their fine social qualities
are highly appreciated by their many
friends.

Washington territory has nearl y two
thousand miles Of railroad. She has two
cities of twenty thousand each (Tecoma
and Seattle) and one of ten thousand
(Spokane Falls). She has a score of
growing towns Of from one to five thou
sand population. She supports a uni
versity and five colleges. Her sea-g going
commerce is surpassed in volume only
by that of the five or six great ports of
entry on the Atlantic coast and by San
Francisco on the Pacific coast. Her
population is more than nine-tenths of
American birth and is drawn from the
educated, energetic classes of all the
states Of the Union. She has nearly
twice the number of inhabitants required
by the last apportionment for repre-
sentative in Congress. She is attract
ing more people westward than is any
state or territory west of the Rocky
mountains. Her wonderful resources
have been heralded abroad until she is
known from the Atlantic to the Pacific,
and from the great lakes to the extreme
south, and as a result thousands are
pouring into her borders and seeking
homes. Eastern exchanges are lament
ing and daily chronicling the departure
of their substantial citizens, who are
headed for our territory. Capitalists,
as well as the man with moderate means,
are immigrating. People have become
tired of the worn out land of the East,
where they are only eking out preca-
rious existence, and propose to try the
fertile lands of the "new northwest"
where the soil rewards the tiller and
where the word failure" is not recog-
nized- a country at present embracing
100000 acres of wheat land with an
average yield of 40 bushels per acre.
