mated that the home when finished will
cost from 5000 to 5000. The building,
which has been located on Poplar street
in North Seattle on the line of the new
cable road, is being rapidly constructed
and will be supplied with every modern
convenience.
The ball tomorrow night for the benefit
OF the home will likely be one of the main
social events of the season. Nearly 1000
invitations have been sent out and large
number of tickets have been disposed of.
The affair will be given under the auspices
of the entertainment committee, which is
composed of the following well-known
ladies: Mrs. Rees p Daniels, Mrs. Eben
Smith, Mrs. John A. Baker, Mrs. DR..
Mitchell. Mrs. P b. NJ. Miller, Mrs. +. P.

The banquet, an elaborate affair, is in
charge of the ladies, who have secured a
fine array of donations from the many who
are benevoIently disposed toward the laud-
able enterprise.
Music for the occasion will be furnished
by the First Regiment band, which is of
itself sufficient guarantee that this part
of the programme will be royalty carried
out.
The floor managers who have kindly
consented to act are Messrs. George +.
Fay and George Carter, two gentlemen
well known in society, and who will aid
greatly towards the enjoyment of all
present.
Tickets can be had at the following
places Stewart & Holmes, Lang's drug
store, Kelloggs and Lee & Schlumpf's, and
from the ladies of the society. 1t is hoped
that the affair will be as great financial
as it will be social success.
The following is letter received by the
secretary of the society:
Ladies; / have been waiting and watching
OF your "home." 1t is what is sadly needed in
Seattle, for lodging house is a very undesir-
able home for women who are alone and among

kind ladies will soon have it ready for our oc-

ARCHIBALD M'NAUGHToN's FATE.
A Sad Case Recalled by a Brothers
Touching Inquiry.

Archibald McNaughton, of Calumet,
Mich, writes to the PosT-INTELLIGENcER
''In clipping from your paper of January

of man named John McNaughton, in
Seattle harbor. l have reason TO believe
the drowned man was my brother. Will
You kindly let me know what disposition
was made of his body and how he came 10

The records in the coroner's Office shows
that on January p the body of John Nc
Naughton was found floating in the BAY
at the foot of Jackson street. He had
been dead about two weeks. No inquest
was held. He had but twenty-five cents
in his pockets. The dead man had been
employed by Earl & Mcleod, contractors
on the Seattle, Lake Shore Il Eastern rail-
way and with several of his companions
was discharged January for some misun-
derstanding. Ii is thought he fell over
board, as there were no marks of violence
on his body. The coroner ascertained that
he had SIS coming to him from his en-

that it was caused by imperfect insulation
of the incandescent lamp over the cashier's

counters and had left can containing a
very small quantity of boiled oil in the
corner and this may have caused the

Many People Who Live i'm Ballard and
Do Business in the City.

Aside from the hundreds of people who
live in Ballard and are employed there, a
great number make that town their home,
and come to Seattle every day to work.
This is because of the easy communication
between Seattle and her suburbs, and the
better opportunities for man to secure a
home wherein he can live under his
own roof, and put his rent money
into something that will do him
some good. The electric lines
already in operation and those contem-
plated virtually make Ballard a part of
Seattle, and many of the people of both
cities can claim citizenship in each.
This claim, however, will not do for voting
purposes, but only in a commercial and
social sense. Politically, one residence
will do. But Ballard is rapidly filling up
with people who come there to stay. They
see that they have all the conveniences of
large city as regards schools, churches,
light and water supply. and with easy
access to Seattle, it is most desirable
place for a residence.

Tho Water Pipe to BE Ordered In

The board of public works decided at the
meeting yesterday to order the water pipe
required to replace that lost on the Hust-
Ter of r. w. Wood & Co., of Philadelphia.
Petitions for the grading of Chestnut

Depot were referred to the city engineer
for estimates.
The Seattle Consolidated Electric Rail

single line on Pine street from Fifth to
Sixth, to connect with the present lines.
1t was forwarded to the city council with
favorable recommendation.
Chief of Police Rogers called attention
to the dangerous condition OF the fence on
the Grant street bridge.
Complaints by Angus Macintosh and
II. Bridges of nuisances were referred to
officials with authority to act.
The fire commissioners recommen ded

Comstock addition, for $500. Report
tabled.
The request of S. V. Vrooman as to low
ering the grade at Pine and Eleventh
streets was not favorabiy received.
Poundmaster Boyd presented bill for 50
for feeding horse for eighteen days,
which he was afterward compelled to sell
for $3.50. He is required by ordinance to
advertise impounded animals for fifteen
days, and he recommends a more expedi-
tious method. The board will forward the
recommendation to the council.
Petition for extension of main on Madi-
son street will be complied with as soon as
the pipe reaches here.
The street commissioner reported that

Chamber of Commerce yesterday after
noon. Much genuine interest was shown
and nine new members were elected. At
every meeting recently the strength of
the association has been increased. The
objects of the organization are worthy of
the highest commentator and public
support.
The most important matter discussed at
the meeting was the building question. 1t
had been deemed advisable to get a part of
the structure ready for occupancy at an
early date. but it was the general opinion
