THE San Francisco Bulletin of { recent date speaks word for Arizons for which it will accept the thanks oI all residents of this part Of it:
 "Thsrs ssems," it says, "to be seod reason to believe that . band of Apa- ches have left the San Carlos reserva- tion and are raiding along the Arizona and New Mexico boundary. A dozen murdered white men are credited to their operations. Troops and militia are hunting for them. but the Apache is hard to catch on his native ground. If the tribes were moved to the Indian territory they might be kept quiet. As long as they inhabit the San Car los reservation, they will go on raids whenever the spirit moves them, re- turning to the reservation when pur- suit gets too hot and securing protec- tion there"

l separate them this crisis. After they had been instructed where to stand, they took their places, the bride eying me with some disfavor as possible intruder. "Who giveth this woman to be mar cied to this man2" At this moment stepped forward to make that part of the ceremony com plete.
 ''I don't know she," said the bride, edging away, but the dean paid no at tention to her and repeated the sacred formula for them to follow with him.
 ''I will now take the ring" said my grandfather in low voice.
 "Reeng?" echoed the groom, II know nobbut reeng. Hast any like reeng, Mathilde?'
 The rafters rung with his "Whoa! Dobbin," tone.
 ''I never thocht O the like. Happen we'll ne'er mind sech leetle thing a that" said the bride, with a look of genuine terror in her eyes, as if she might lose her gallant at the very altar.
 ''Take off your ring, Myra, we can use that for the ceremony" said the dean. who carried out the Church of England ritual to the letter.
 Alas, held up my gloveless hands as destitute of rings as those of the bride herself.
 What was to be done? The dean would not have considered those good people properly married if the ceremony of the ing were omitted. He glanced down t his own white hands, holding the acred book, then he turned hurriedly Q me:
 ''Go and bring me the key of the church." he said.
 What in the world is he going to do with itP" l queried to myself, as ] )beyed.
 Taking the large, brass key in his land, he gave it to the man, designatin, he loop at the end of the handle. II, hen instructed him to slip the rina 'ver the brides finger. nearly laughed loud as l saw the expression of sur rise on the poor things face, as tn, " S"AG ASA oi hCi uiiScr, Wullo UQC 'ridegroom lumberingly repeated after ne dean: "With this ring, thee wed,' itc.
 As soon as they were married re- sored the key to the door and the groom anded rude parcel to my grandfather.
 Its the pay t weddin'," he said, jrisllly.
 The dean thanked him courteouslv | 'ithout having an idea as to what the | arcel might contain.
 There was horse block at the door. n which the bride mounted with her Iress tucked up about her. Only one iorse with its Tapping bridal accoutre- ncnts was in sight.
 "Richard!' screamed the new wife. where's my beast?"
 Richard had taken off his white sloves and was cantering round among 'he gravestones looking for the ''beast." t was soon found, and after we ha1 'haken Lands with the two and wished hem joy, the queer pair rode off in fine tyle.
 When my grandfather opened the parcel he found the soft, silky skins of dozen musk-rats-a princely fee from uch a source.

The Ball Game at the Park.

The Los Angeles Athletic club ball
nine were taken in camp yesterday by
the Santa Ana team. The visitors were
met at the depot early yesterday morn
ing by several members of the Los An
geles Athletic club and escorted to the
Lindley cafe, where the two mines
lunched. The game at the park was a
trife one sided, the visitors proving too
strong for 'Doc" Kennedy's aggregation
of willow wielders, and the result was
that the home team was shut out.
This was not great disappointment,
as the boys only played for the
sport OF the thing and were hardly
geared up to run against such hot
team as Santa Ana sent up. The pitcher
from the home of DUNCAN and Silkwood
proved irresistible, and the Los Angeles
boys famed with regularity.
The mines were made up as follows:

ST. /OSEPHS HOSPI7Z.

One of the best and most important
institutions in Aberdeen is the hospital
established here this last summer by the
Dominican sisters, Of New York, an in
stitution that is calculated to do great
good on account Of the accidents RESULTING
from the many mills and logging camps
that are in continual operation in this
Grays harbor country.
The sisters at present occupy three
frame buildings, but tie plans have just
been completed for large and commo-
dious brick structure that will be built
at once. This building will offer every
accommodation possible for the sick, and
be an ornament to the city.
From October LIST to December 31st,
twenty-one patients were treated in the
hospital, coming from all parts Of the
harbor. IN almost every instance the
patients were suffering from accidental
injuries.

THE CENTRAL CITY.

Aberdeen is the central city and the port
of entry for the Grays harbor country.
1t is situated at the apex of that pear
shaped bay, where the waters of the har-
Dor are united with those OF the
Chehalis and Wishkah rivers, sixteen
miles from the bar The incorporate
limits of the city contain eleven square
miles OF land and water, lying on both
sides of the rivers just named and the
bay proper. The site is principally level,
but back of the level portion
rises g. adually to an elevation of fifty
feet or more. The Wishkah river
divides the city little east of the center.
This river is navigable for some distance
for the largest ships and for steamers as
far as sixteen miles above its mouth.
Aberdeen was originally founded as a
mill town some seven or eight years ago,
but it's commercial growth has been a mat
ter of only three years. The first corners
thought of little but the advantageous
location and exceptional natural facilities
for saving and shipping lumber,
but these two very important factors have
gone to make up location favorable for
other industries, and realization of this
has pushed the town into commercial
prominence and accounts for it's recent
rapid growth.

GROW7H OF THE CITY

During the year of 1890 Aberdeen
had wonderful growth. From small
village it has become an incorporated
city, and designated the port OF entry for
Grays harbor. Its population has in
creased from 1400 to $500, and one hum
dred and fifty buildings, including bust
ness houses and dwellings, have been
erected within it's limits. Its postofice
receipts from $45O.96. for the quarter
ending January LIST, 1890, has increased
to $9OS,0O for the quarter ending JAN
uary l, 1891.
For street improvements there was ex-
pended by the city during the last six
months of the year $4,000. The pros
poets for this season are still more flatter-
ing. The city has vote $65, 900 in bonds
to be used on her water system. A $685.
900 public school building and a large
hospital are also to BE- erected. One large
sawmill, two shingle mills, a box factory
and planning mill will be completed and
in operation as rapidly as the work can
be accomplished.

HARBOR CHARGES AND LWSLR-
ANCE ON SHIPPING.

On account of the ease of entrance and
the accessibility Of the harbor ports to
the ocean, the towage rates are much less
for a vessel bound from this city than for
one bound from Portland or ports on
Puget Sound. The towage rates on the
harbor for lumber laden vessel is fifty
cents per thousand feet OF lumber for in
and out tow, and twenty cents per ton for
incoming freight, while the towage rates
on the Sound are much larger, as the dis
lance to be traversed is longer.
Tie insurance rates on lumber and
merchandise leaving the harbor ports are
likewise lower than the Sound rates on
the same cargoes. The highest rate from
Grays harbor to San Francisco being
three-quarters per cent. lower lower than
the lowest schedule rates from Puget
Sound, the lumber rates being also three
quarters per cent. in favor OF Grays
harbor.

LIGHT AND MA TER.

The streets, business houses, public
buildings, and many private dwellings Of
Aberdeen are lighted by electricity, fur
nished by the Aberdetn Electric Com
pany, a home corporation, having a paid
up capital stock OF $4,000. The plant is
one Of the best and comprises both the
incandescent and arc system of lighting
The charges are reasonable and the quail
ity of light the best.
The present water system was devised
when there was no expectation of there
being SO large city here, and conse-
quently is omewhat inadequate; the
people, however, have voted sufficient
water bonds, the sale Of which has pro-
vided money for sucn an improvement Of
the system as will furnish supply OF
pure water sufficient for population Of
forty thousand. For fire protection there
is an inexhaustible supply of salt water,
taken from the Chehalis river.

FIRE DEP4EZMENT,

The city fire department is thoroughly
organized and well equipped. Water is
supplied from the bay by a stationary
pumping engine, running night and day,
Hydrants are located at convenient in
tervals and connections are e9sily made
when necessary. The apparatus con-
sists of three hose-carts, two thousand
one hundred and fifty feet Of hose, and a
first-class hook and ladder truck. There
are eighty-four memoirs of the fire de-
partment, divided into three companies,
under command of a chief and four
assistants.

Financial.

Aberdeen has two banking institutions,
the Aberdeen Bank and the First National
Bank. The first is an incorporated state
bank, organized in 'S7, and within the last
month has been reorganized with cap
ital stock of $4,000, increasing the num-
Der of stockholders from two to five, and
adding to their regular banking business
a savings bank department.
The First Rational Bank has paid up
capital of $5O0O0, and it's officers and
directors are among the leading fiDanciers
of the State.
The local deposits of these banks are
from $4,000 to $150,000 per month.
A local Building and Loan Association
has just been organized and in few
weeks will be prepared to furnish money

TRANSPORTATION.

Railroads and water transportation Gre
ate a competition that cannot be con-
trolled in the interest OF monopolists. The
Northern Pacific Railroad Company is
now operating its Gray's harbor line
within Ten miles of Aberdeen, and rap
idly completing the road to this point
with a large force of men. Practically,
there is now actual rail communication
with all the world by this road via Tacoma
or Portland. Regular lines of steamers
run to Portland, Oregon, and 70 San
Francisco, California, and smaller boats
ply daily between Aberdeen and all points
on the harbor.
One hundred and thirty-six vessels
sailed from Grays harbor during 1890,
seventy-three sailing vessels and sixty
three steam vessels; of these, fifty sailing
vessels and all OF the steamers sailed
from Aberdeen. During the months Of
Jan. and February Of 1890, only ten ves-
sells left the harbor. During the same
months of this year, il891), forty-four
vessels passed out over Grays harbor bar,
thirty nine Of which sailed from Aberdeen
This shows how rapidly Grays harbor
and especially Aberdeen is becoming a
place of commercial importance. With
the completion of the Northern Pacific
railroad to Aberdeen. draining eastern
and central Washington of its coal and
wheat, it is impossible to prophesy Of
what Importance Aberdeen will be-
come as shipping port, and when the
lumber men of this northwest are able to
ship via the Nicaragua canal to the east
ern world, forest of masts will cover this
harbor as the growth of fir and spruce
cover it's shores.

board OF TRADE.

The Board OF Trade is composed OF
about one hundred members, among
whom are the active and substantial busi-
ness men of the city. The board was
organized for the promotion of Aberdeen
interests in particular and the harbor and
county generally, and is thoroughly pre-
pared to meet any emergency that may
arise.
The board will be glad at any time to
furnish general and particular informa-
ton to any who may wish it, and any
request for the same will receive the i'm
mediate attention of the Secretary.

PUBLLC SCHOOLS.

the education of the young, and the two
school houses are well equipped with the
most improved furniture and apparatus.
The graded schools of Aberdeen have
already become noted for their efficiency.
Preparation is being made for the erection
of new central school building to cost
$4,000. The public school in January,
1891, had an average attendance of two
hundred pupils.
