No living American has had such a
varied and interesting career as the

volume, replete with fact and fancy,
humor, romance and adventure. 1t is
as funny as anything written by Mark

cents Abroad" As the author saws
"Mark Twain is sort of human ka-
leidoscope." Interesting particulars
are given concerning his early days
his checkered career in Nevada and
California; his entertaining trip as
zone OF the Innocents;" his first lit
erary success and suspicious marriage
his amusing adventures in England
and Germany. his varied experience
on the lecture platform; and his sue
cess as business man; and fine DIES.
cription of his pleasant home at Hart
ford. "Mark Twain" will be read and
re-read by lovers of humor. Send post.

The King Counr Commissioners
have authorized the Strengthening OF
the channel of the Samamish river, or
Squak slough, from Lake Samamish to
Lake Washington, distance OF about
sixteen miles. The river has a slug
gish and winding course, and is only
navigable by small steamers as far as
Bethel. The Strengthening and deepen
ing of this channel, under the State
drainage law, will tit strip of land a
mile wide for cultivation, and allow
navigation between the two lakes.
Tie work is an important one, and
the surveyors will take to the fields at
once.
a 12-year-old girl walking along the
Seattle docks on Sunday lost her foot
ing and fell into the water. Had it
not been for the courage OF nameless
tramp she would have drowned. The
man jumped in after her and swan
with her to shore. On getting up at
the wharf he handed the child over to
her friends who had rushed down to
the dock, and coolly proceeded to
wiring out his clothes. When asked
his name he replied: 81 amt got no
name. Pm travelling man, walk ties
for my health" The crowd passed
around the hat, and the result was a
liberal donation. He took the cash
and spent it in the nearest saloon.

The Washington Indians are all
afraid of the smallpox, and will stay
at home this year rather than to ven
ture in the hop-fields and pick. Con-
sequently a great deal Of trouble is
being experienced in obtaining enough
labor to successfully pack the hops.

turns show a decrease in the assessed
value Of real estate of about 81 500, 600,
and in personal property $780, 900 be-

black.
The Farmers Alliance of Pierce
county talk of emulating King Coun-
~ Alliance workers by establishing at
Tacoma a general mercantile house,
where farm products will be received
in trade. The farmers interested will
be stockholders in the business and
elect one of their number manager.
Enormous quantities of valuable
timber have been destroyed by fire
within the past few days between Port
Angeles and Port Crescent. A party
OF picnicers, who kindled fire at the
foot of gigantic cedar some miles
west of Port Angeles, are blamed for
the damage. The spectacle afforded
by the flaming forests. when the fire
was its height, is said to have been
sublime.
Washington's State flower contest

A bushel or more Of letters contain
ing votes on the State Flower have
been taken to Mrs. Slaughter's sum-
mer home at American Lake.
The shingle mill at Everson, owned
by Hardness Bros. & Scott, which was
burned, had only been in operation
few days, and the dry house was being
filled for the first time when it oc.
cured. One hundred and seventy-fve
thousand shingles were also burned.
II was not the largest, but was one of
the most complete mills in Whatcom
county, and the loss of $4,000 falls
heavily on the company. They had
no insurance.
The Waitsburg Times relates the
wonderful escape from sudden death
which befell Mrs. Lydia Virgins while
camping in the mountains. Near the
tent stood an old dead tree. the top of
which had been broken off. The re-
naming part of the tree was perhaps
30 feet high and IL inches in diameter
at the top. At time when the ele-
ments were perfectly calm, that old
tree fell, the two prongs going on
either side of Mrs. Virgins, missing
her not more than 10 inches. She
escaped entirely uninjured.

cade Ditch and Irrigation Company,

Retire, Mr.. McGraw.


IOympId IrIDUNt, MATCH y, ISy2.
To John II. McGraw and henchmen: We are
talking to you. Listen, You organized the
overwhelming defeat Of the Republicans of Sc.
attic yesterday. You had not sense enough to
see that the people of Seattle, as well as the
State, are sick OF the political methods YOU and
your friend Metcalf inaugurated in the lobby OF
the Olymgia hotel a year ago. You carried
those ring methods into the Seattle Republican
CITY Convention, you alienated men who had
fought and bled for the Republican party, you
brought disreputable hummer" element
prominently into the party forgetting that the
voter was alone with his lead pencil when he ex-
ercised the right 10 reject the ring candidates
you had foisted upon him. 1t was not strictly a
democratic victory yesterday. Seattle is q
staunch Republican city. Hundreds of Repub.
licsns voted the opposition ticket because they
are sick and tired of boss" rule In the councils
OF the party. Retire, Mr.. McGraw, as a coun-
seilor OF the Republican party. You have done
damage enough.
