SIOOp Foundered-NarrOw Escape From
Death.

From J. D. MCGOWAN who arrived
from Shoalwater bay yesterday are
learned the particulars of the mar
row escape of two well known resi-
dents of Pacific county from drown
ing last Wednesday.
The sloop Uncle Ned, with Eu-
gene Simpson and Ed. Garrison
aboard, was bound from the Neemah
river to North Cove, having for a
cargo 300 baskets young plant oys-
tiers. When about two miles off
Leadbetter point the wind died away
and the sea being choppy and the
sloop heavy laden it began to sink.
Simpson and Garrison flung out part
of the cargo, but the sloop still sink
ing they jumped into the small boat
astern. Before they could get the
painter loose the sloop went down
stern first. dragging the dingey down.
As she rose the men half drowned,
left the dingey and grabbed onto the
mast of the Uncle Ed.
They rose and fell with the half sub
merged craft till 8 o'clock, when the
Tom Morris, on her way with mail
from Bay Center made them out
about half mile off her course, and
headed for them taking them on
board where they were quickly cared
for.

The Age or Modern Man.

People are fond of saying that "man-
kind is growing wiser and weaker"
But is it really so? Let US glance at
the facts. According to the latest sta
tisticS there are more centenarians now
living than at any previous time in the
history of the world. Why? Because
of the great discoveries in medical
science which afford him immunity
from diseases that formerly devastated
mankind. Greatest of them all is DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, the
best blOOd-purifier and renovator of the
age. Scrofula, fever-sores, tumors, un-
slightly ulcers and eruptions vanish like
magic beneath its beneficent influence.

An editor should never confess that

If he knew where the lost tribes of

whereabouts, but interested friends
of the parties had begged him not to

hint greatly excited the people of the

further developments in the matter
they bought twelve extra copies of
his paper. These two extreme cases
illustrate the difference between q

There is a secret in building
towns" says the Ration Range. "Do
you know what it is? If you don't,
you can work out the problem in the
following manner: Take two town.
sites; let one be in a beautiful loca-
ton, with all the natural advantages
possible, and the other none of these.
Take 500 old fogies and misers; men
who don't believe in giving capital
lists anything for risking their money
in the town, and put them on the
good site. Take zoo good live, ener-
getic, get up sort of fellows, who
never let an opportunity pass to ad-
vertise themselves and their town,
and set them on the poor townsite.
Then watch these two towns for the
next five years, and you will readily
catch on to the secret of town build
ing"

W. S. Thompson, living near George
Dixon's logging camp, walked into
Kelso last Wednesday and surren-
dered himself. The Chinese cook at
Dixon's camp had been taking liber-
ties with Thompson's children Tues
day, while Thompson was in town.
On his return his wife informed him
of what the Chinaman had done.
Thompson at once went to the cabin
where the Chinaman was at work and
attacked him with an Ak. The China
man defended himself with an knife,
but Thompson quickly overpowered
him and gave him a slash that cut
through four ribs and laid his chest
open, and he will certainly die, il not
dead already. Public sentiment is
with Thompson, on account of the
provocation for the deed.
