Topics Talked Of in the Hotels
and Streets.
WASHINGTON CEDAR SINGLE,


Mr. r. A. Woolley and Mr.. W. A.
WoolIey, of Woolley, are at the Rainier
hotel. Among their various enterprises is
a large lumber and shingle mill at Wool
ley. Mr.. T. A. Woolley said in the course
Of conversation last evening: I'VE have
just received from the East-the far East
orders for 100000 shingles. Some
100000 of them go to Allegheny City,
Penn, and the 100000 to Cleveland, O.
The red cedar shingles of Washington are
now going all through the East, and are
being shipped further toward the Atlantic
coast every year. Our red cedar shingles
are really unsurpassed in quality and dur
ability, and you may say that they last al
most forever.
Their strongest competition is the
cypress shingle, made from wood found
in the swamps of Florida. The cypress is
running out and they have to take smaller
logs-a fact which makes the logging and
the manufacture of the shingle more
expensive. But one of our Washington
red cedar tracts contains more timber
than dozen Florida swamps. We get out
enormous trees. For example, we cut one
in Woolley that was nine feet In diameter.
One such tree will make a good many
shingles and can be worked to fine adj
vantage.
$50 you see why the Washington shingle
is steadily crowding into the Eastern
market

81 notice." said Superintendent Chalk,
of the water department. that the Posr-
IYTELLIGENcER has estimated the net rev.
enue of the department at $4,000 year.
This is not correct, because the estimate is
based upon an incomplete statement of
expenses. In addition to the amount
given to the press yesterday there must be
taken into account other expenses. Ihave
not made out report as to those yet,
and the figures given were only for salar-
les.
II am very anxious to have the board of
public works allow me an expert book
keeper for a month or 80 in order to get
the construction account Strengthened
out. I do not approve of the
business policy which allows an
expenditure of over three-quarters of a mil
lion dollars without proper account being
kept. l know there is objection to addi-
tional expense, but this seems to me to be
as necessary as gauge to steam boiler.
81 have no fault to find with the present
force, but they are busy with the current
account; besides, this kind of work re-
qrires a very special and technical knowl-
edge, as the bills would have to be appor-
toned to construction, extension, plant
and maintenance.
When the pipe arrives we shall be able
to use considerable length of main now
laid but awaiting connection. and the re-
ceipts will then be consider ably augment

COMIC OPERA THIS EVENING.
''Iolanthe'' 1T the Opera-Hou for the
First Time in the City.


The Seattle Opera Company makes its
first appearance this evening at the opera
house in Gilbert and Sullivan's light opera
.'Iolanthe," which has never been pro-
duced here. There is every reason to be-
lieve the engagement of the company will
be a successful one. Nearly ev-
erybody has seen one or more of
the operas which began with sPinafore"
and ended with 1.-The Gondoliers,r and
any work b the authors of these deserves
all that can be said of it in praise. 10
Ianthe" is full of bright melodies and its
story is romantic one, yet Astounding in
the Quaint conceits with which Gilbert
adorns all his compositions. Every care
has been taken to put the opera
on in good style, and the sew
eral characters are in good hands.
The members of the company are known
as the possessors of fine voices, and under
the direction of Professor Crandall will
sing the opera better than most travelling
companies are able to do. "Iolanthe" will
be seen only two nights, and those who
enjoy comic opera will do well to go both
evenings and have opportunity to sppre-
ciate all its beauties. The cast is appended:
