JUST IN TIME,

The Whisky Exploded Before the In
surance Had Expired.
At Old Elk Grove yesterday morning a
barrel of whisky in George Ottman's
store exploded, and damaged the place to
the extent of several hundred dollars
Nobody was injured, although several
persons were in the store at the time.
The explosion was caused by a lighted
match being thrown into the open bung-
hole of the barrel by Ottman's little boy.
1t seems that the insurance on the store
was to have expired at noon, and Ottman
started for this city to have it renewed.
The explosion and fire occurred soon
after he left home, and the insurance was
still on the goods

REMAINING THE STREETS.

SEATTLE, sept. "a, 1891.
To THE EDITOR: With very little expense to
the city the names of streets could now be
changed and should be arranged according to
some system. As the streets are now named the
stranger cannot find place without difficulty
or without the use OF map or by inquiry. This
should be done as soon possible SO that the
change can appear in the next directory. sub
NIT the following:
First-That all streets running east and west
south of Yesler avenue be named after promi-
nent Seattle people, arranged alphabetically as
near as possible.
Second-All streets north Of Yesler avenue
running east and west, be named after presi-
dents OF the United States and prominent
Americans, arranging the latter alphabetically.
using the first thirteen letters of the alphabet,
and no less than ten names to each letter. All
other streets running in more OF an easterly and
westerly direction than north or south, to be
named after prominent American authors
Thlrd-All streets running north or south, be-
ginning at West street, be named after promi-
nent Americans, using the last thirteen letters
OF the alphabet, arranged as those for streets
running east and west
Many of the names Of streets where there is a
similarity will have to be changed anyhow.
Then why not have them all named according
to some system7 SOLOMON.

In line straight across the front OF the room ON
the main floor, each man in his proper position
and in readiness TO perform the labor allotted
him. Chief Rogers and Captain Barck stood on
the stairs leading from Chief Kellogg's private
Office to the hall above and in plain sight OF all
the apparatus. When all was ready Chief kel-
logg touched the button, the gong sounded, the
doors few open and out cams the horses with
rush. 1t would be hard to imagine a pref
tier sight than was presented by the
intelligent animals as they emerged from their
stalls in perfect line. heads high in the air ana
eyes flashing at the prospect of run. The
horses took their places and the harness dropped
in an instant on their backs, making every
thing ready to leave the house. From the time
the gong sounded until the hitch was made
only three seconds had elapsed.

tress who marries outside the profession
finds domestic life bore, misses the in
cense of praise, the applause that once
greeted her when she trod the boards, and
separation soon follows. As in the recent
case of Rose Coghlan, the woman goes
back to the footlights and the freedom
of her old life and the man kicks himself
for his folly in marrying woman who
was only fit to be the wife of an actor.
Marriages within the profession are best,
for an actress soon wearies of the restraint
and strict decorum of married existence
with a man who cannot comprehend the
Bohemian tastes and free and easy ways
OF the dramatic world.

No. Loss. No. Gain.

In 1853 the tariff on wool was reduced.
and the effect of the reduction is seen in
the diminished number of sheen, continu-
ing down 10 last year. when the tariff was
raised. The average of each fleece Of wool
in Ohio is six pounds. This means an in
crease in the wool product Of this one
state Of 1924 40 pounds this wear. or
$4,000 more To Ohio farmers for wool in
ISL than in IS90. Ohio has one-twelftb
the whole number of sheep in the United
States. II there had been the same ratio
Of increase in other states there are 2426.-
So more sheep in the country this wear
than last, worth st least s.. o67. 80. Ills
probable that the increase in the number
Of sheep is much greater In the far West
ern states and territories than in Ohio. hut
even If only the Ohio increase has been

substantial gain 10 the farmers from the
wool tariff

Bynum would do well to leave the wool
question alone. John P. Irish, Of San
Francisco, as bright and well equipped q
campaign speaker as any of the present
visiting clump of Democratic missionaries,
undertook in 1888 to educate Oregon on the
subject of free wool and taxed sugar."
and if he had spoken a week longer the
Republican majority would have risen
above 10000. As it was Irish raised the
figures from under 5000 to nearly 1000.
