Retail Grocers After the Johbers.

At meeting of the Retail Grocers' Associa-
ton last night the principal subject of interest
was an informal discussion upon the actions of
the West street iobbers in selling to consumers.
The opinions expressed were that the jobbers
would go out of their way to sell to consumers.
Various remedies were suggested and then ex-
ploded. Among the plans suggested was one to
pool issues, and select a reliable representative
in San Francisco Several replies led to the be-
lief that the San Francisco scheme would not be
profitable. The matter was settled by motion
ordering the secretary to notify all the members
that their presence was required at the next
regular meeting to take part in the discussion.

A DAUGHTERS HEROIC ACT.
Mrs. Gunther's Divorce Suit Brings Out
Startling Tale.

Theresa Gunther wants divorce from Charles
Gunther, her husband. The couple have been
married since 1888. They came to Seattle in No.
vember, 1889. and have resided here since that
time Mrs. Gunther alleges that the man whose
name she bears is habitual drunkard, and
that when he is very drunk he becomes violent
and dangerous
She asserts that he threatened to run his knife
through her, pulled a gun on her and fired it
oil. and that in the spring of 1891 he was about
TO stab her, when a daughter, who could bear
the sight no longer, rushed in front of his
weapon and offered her bosom TO save her
mothers life.
The plaintiff alleges that by her own industry
she acquired property in Minneapolis valued at
$500, the proceeds of which the defendant squsn-
dered for drink, and that now she owns about
$1,000 worth OF property. all of which is the
direct result OF her own labor. She asks for
decree of separation for the custody of her three
children and also that her husband shall have
no share or part of her property.

SEATTLE, Dec. 81. 1891.
Retrospection is an accom-
paniment of this day. The
year is going out and new
hopes center with the coming
one-with what its days may
develop.
The past year is dead. Its
days have been lived and
known, and now, looking back
from the summit of the time
space, we find that in spite of
all the stringencies," the
"hard times" the scarcity of
money" the dull business"
and all the by-words and pre-
dictions of chronic croakers,
that 1891 is a laurel-crowned
year in the house history. 1t
stands beside and in the fore
rank with the year marked as
the unusual, the irreproachable
acme of prosperity.
1t is a satisfaction to be able
to thus show the fallacy Of the
whimperings of the croakers.
The year 1891 shows a re-
cord of more sales in the big
store than any previous one in
its history.
This should explain how
good a trading place the big
store is in "hard times" as
well as Flush times" For
this increased patronage we
thank yon sincerely.
On Monday next we will
inaugurate our usual semi-an-
nual clearance sale. This sale
will exceed anything of the
character ever held in this
city.
The store will be closed all
day tomorrow.
