and are Saved.

-Four men-John Miller, David Harmon,
Charles Yedder and John Kelly-were at
work pulling down the structure recently
occupied as a butcher shop near the new
Mccormick building yesterday. A wagon
had just been loaded and was about to be
driven of. when the building caved IN
without any warning and fell with fright
full crash. a large portion of it sUruck the
wagon, and this averted terrible tragedy,
the men seeking shelter under the vehicle.
But one Of them was injured. This was
young Yedder, who received several bad
bruises and was rendered unconscious for
time. His injuries were confined to the
head, shoulders and back. There is no
reason to believe but that the young man
will be around again in couple or three

A WOMAN'S INVENTION.
Mrs. Dober's Ingenious Scheme for WASH
ing the Five Little Dobers.

Mrs. Dober's Ingenious Scheme for WASH
ing the Five Little Dobers.
Mrs. Hannah Dober, the mother of |
five little Dobers, has invented the most !
unique toilet apparatus ON record. 1t is
a machine that bathes, rinses, drips and
dries the entire Dober breed sinultane-
ously by the simple turning of crank.
The Dobers live on the water front,
near the old salmon cannery, back of
Old Town. Like many of the houses in
that vicinity, the home of the Dobers is
built on piles. At high tide the back
porch of this humble home extends over
the water, and this fact was favorable to
the idea which Mother Dober had worn
concealed in her mind for some time.
With the assistance of her husband, the
enterprising but overworked woman cut
hole in the flooring of the back porch
about four feet square, and then built
windlass like those in use on old fashion
ed well curbs.
Then she got quantity of stout wire
gauze or screens and made a crate or
basket that would easily slip through the
hole in the floor. This Basket, which
was about three feet deep, was hung in
sings fastened at the four corners and
then attached to the drum of the wind
lass. The baby washer was now ready
to be put in operation.
Bright and early every morning the
five little Dobers are hustled out of bed
The eldest, a girl Of nine, though small
for her age, is an extremely handy young
girl and a great help to her mother. She
peels the nighties off her little brothers
and sisters, likewise her own, and loads
the children into the wire basket. Next
she throws in handful of wafered soap,
and then joins the little band of candi-
dates for immersion.
When everything is ready Mother Do
Der, who has been attending to her house
hold duties in the meantime, comes out
and mans the windlass crank. She low
ers her happy little flock down into the
clear, cold water and gives them thor
ough dousing by working the crank
backward and forward. This movement
and the commotion made in the basket
by the children produces a lather from
the soap and cleanses the kids in a man
ner equal, if not superior, to the regula-
ton hand bath.
Unlike most children, who kick and
raise fuss when being scrubbed, the
little Dobers actually enjoy their matu-
final plunge bath. The cold water i'm
parts a healthy glow to their pink skin,
and their eyes sparkle with delight as
they duck and tumble over one another
in the basket. The youngest, a laughing
little youngster only eighteen months
old, fairly shrieks with delight at the
prospect of plunge, and cries when his
mother thinks it too cold for him to go
down in the basket.
When Mrs. Dober thinks her brood is
clean enough to last till the next morn
ing she hauls the basket up flush with
the platform, fastens the crank and let's
them dry while. This operation and
the gentle zephyrs that blow in from
Bellingham bay remove all traces of
moisture, so that no towels are needed
for drying the infants, which is an i'm
portant saving of material as well as
| time.-Tacoma News.

A Rare Example of Devotion.

Miss Julia Redman, of this city, has
not been half C block from her home in

Miss Redman, who is a pretty and &C

conduct is due to the fact that she has

lection. She is now thirty-two years

Morris Fight Against Yardage.

CHICAGO, April 27.-The fight against the
yardage charges on cattle of the Union
Stock Yards company by Nelson Morris on
behalf of himself, Armour & Co. and Swift
was begun this morning. The first lot of
cattle consigned to private yards built by
Morris arrived this morning. In order to
reach the yards it was necessary for the
cars to be run over tracks owned and OPP
Grated by the stock yards company. Nor
ris could compel the company to allow him
to use these tracks by the payment of
reasonable tolls. The company, however,
refused to allow their use, spiking the
switches and putting guard over them.
Morris will apply to the courts for an
order compelling the stock yards company
to transport his cattle to his yards. Later
in the day the stock yards company won at
least a temporary victory, as the cattle
needed food and water and Morris was
forced to permit their unloading in the
regular yards

4 Bit of q Woman.

Louise Lawson, the sculptor whose
statue of Sunset Cox is occasioning con-
siderable discussion just now, is
bit of woman, with golden brown
hair, gray eyes, a lisp and a viva
cious manner. She wears, when work
ing in clay, a dark blue blouse and
trousers, and her studio costume is al
ways of white liDsn-slirt and coat-the
latter finished with an extraordinary
collar of coarse embroidery, tied with the
traditional knot of baby blue ribbon.
With this costume yellow shoes are worn.
The whole effect is rather more bizarre
than attractive Whatever the critics
say, the letter carriers swear by Louise
and her nine-foot image.-Exchange
