Umbrellas Carried I'm the Pocket.

An umbrella has been patented in Can
ada by Mr.. J. Bergesen, of Brooklyn, this
state, the cane of which is constructed in
three telescope sections: the ribs are also
folding, and are provided with suitable
spring catches. When folded the umbrella
can be easily carried in the pocket; it may
also be used as a parasol by folding tho
ribs over on top, thus reducing the area,
and making it convenient in crowded
streets. The whole is well constructed,
the details being strong and durable, and
the advantage of an umbrella capable Of
being placed in the pocket is self-evident.-

for the performance of "Bunders." This

represented, and many have witnessed it twice
already within five performances. Last night

patrons, and their pleasure was shown by en-
thusiastic recalls of the principal actors in the
piece.
The attention OF patrons of the house is
directed to the first appearance OF Miss Isabel

next. These well known artists will make
their debut in an exceedingly strong melo-
drama. The piece is entitled "From Virginia."

Donovan was member of the Hams crew,

Blakeley, however, and when the vessel pulled
out, the steward, J. G. Peed, missed the watch

OF having taken them, and on reaching
Fort Ludlow, telegraphed the sheriff of
kitsap county and Chief Rogers, giving
description of Donovan and the goods. a few
days ago Lieutenant Sims located the watch in
Uncle Joe's pawnshop, and last evening located
Donovan and placed him under arrest. The
pawn ticket was found in his hat, he having
raised sil on the watch. He was locked up, and

secure the legal services of H. J. Snivelv, an
attorney of that place. Mr. Snively had the
case reopened, and this time Mrs Thompson
came IN aud surrendered the guardianship.

HE TOYED WITH A GUN.
Railroad Night Waterman at sentOn
Accidentally Shoots Himself.

Edward Ormor, night Waterman of the Co
lumbia & Puget Sound railroad bridge at Rem
ton, was shot in the face Wednesday evening by
the accidental discharge OF gun, and will prob
ably lose both his eyes as a result
He had shotgun in his hand when he went
out on duty for the night, and was carelessly
drawing it up and down BIZ the muzzle
along the side OF the bridge. The hammer
finally caught on the beam and the gun dis
charged, the shot giancing along Ormors face
up into his eyes ami forehead. The gun was
loaded with bird shot, and though it did not
penetrate the skull, the eyes and forehead were
fearfully lacerated and burned, and one eve
was I'M ured so badly that he will surely lose the
use Of it. The other eye may be saved but it is
doubtful. He was brought to the city yesterday
afternoon and taken to Grace hospital.
