for your eyes only, and you are not

"This circular was misinterpeted

BE WISE IN TINE.
People Cannot Afford to Trifle
With the Eyesight.
Realizing This, They are Securing
Prof. Stewards Services.

Seattle seems to be full of wise people,
judging from the steady stream of callers
at the parlors of the celebrated New York
optician, Prof. f. d. Seward, now at the
Grand Hotel. His careful scientific tests,
and the splendid success he has achieved
in accurately adapting his fine lenses to
the eyes of scores of ladies and gentlemen
who are troubled with defective eyesight
cause a repetition of his experience in the
large cities of the East and all the cities
that he has visited on the Pacific Coast.
In addition to the large number Of
prominent citizens of Seattle who have
called to have glasses adjusted, many have
come from Everett, Anacortes, Whatcom,
Port Townsend and other surrounding
points. Letters of gratitude are being re-
ceived daily showing the satisfactory re-
suits of the work on the Coast.
Those intending to consult Prof. Seward
should do so without delay as he intends
to close his Office in this city in about two
weeks in order TO give some time to
Tacoma, Spokane Falls and Helena Mont.
on the return trip to New York. The pro-
fessor regrets that he cannot comply with
the earnest solicitations to visit the Bell
ingham Bay cities. Prof. Seward is not a
ouack doctor but an expert optician whose
reputation extends from the Atlantic to
the Pacific and stands second to none.
Except in cases of charity, no glasses are
adjusted for less than $500. Consultation

holders of the Washington National Build
ing, Loan and Investment Association,

year:
Hon. E. o. Graves.
Mr.. William Z. Bailey.
Mr.. |. Hill Case.
Mr.. Joseph II. Hawley.
Mr. Warren l.. 'Gazzam.
Mr.. Il. A. Strout.
The election of such board as the
above is not only guarantee to the share
holders that the affairs of the association
will be honestly and conseryatiyely con-
Quoted, but shows that the association has
steadily advanced in manner that COM
mands the attention of men whose bust
ness ability ranks among the highest class
of Seattle's enterprising citizens. A large
number of the shareholders were present
and joined in unanimous approval of the
manner in which the affairs of the assocla-
ton are being conducted. In showing the
good feeling that exists between the share
holders and management the following
complimentary resolution to Judge L.
Hill Case, general manager, speaks for
itself:
Resolved That the thanks of the stockholders
OF the Washington National Building, Loan and
Investment Association here assembled DE ten
dered Judge l. Hill Case, the general manager.
We realize that to his honesty, efficiency, zeal
and close application to his duties has this
association arrived at its present advanced posi-
tiou. We feel assured that the Interests OF the
stockholders will be wisely. safely and proat-
ably conducted by him for the coming year.
ResoIred That the above resolution be en-
crossed in the minutes of this meeting and
appear upon the records OF the association.
The association was first organized Sep
tember n, 1889 and has steadily advanced
until it now ranks among the best IN the
West. and is rapidly growing TO be the
largest financial organization on the Coast.
II was necessary at this meeting to IN
crease the authorized capital to 100000,
nearly all of the former capital OF S5,0O0O00
being subscribed. A branch office has
been onened in Portland, and the state of
Oregon will soon realize the great benefits
rendered its cities throughout that state
in assisting those who prefer 70 own their
homes or providing means OF safe and
profitable investments. Seattle has IN
dorsed the association by over loco share
holders, and the leading banks of this city
have given permission to use their names
as references.

Prospects of a Match Between English

A Chicago Gambling He'll Raided.

CHICAGO. March S-One of the most ex-
tensive raids organized by the Chicago
police department in years was made yes
terday afternoon, when Chief of De-
tectives Sheave and twenty-five Off
GERS surrounded the premises at
267 and 269 Clark street and placed
go men under arrest. The estab-
lishment was a full-fledged pool room
run by Frank Shaw, of st. Paul I;
Sid Michael and others. alleged
members of the Chicago gamblers
trust. Books were being made on the
Gloucester and Guttenburg races. and a
rushing business was in progress. The
scheme worked was that the bettor should
ostensibly send a dispatch through the
Mercantile Telegraph Company" to St.
Paul, where the bet was supposed to be
consummated. This alleged interstate ar
rangement the proprietors professed to
believe left no room for prosecution under
the Illinois anti-pool-seliing law. The
police evidently thought differently, and
the spectators were hauled in patrol
wagons to the Armory, where they were
bailed out by Proprietor Nellie.

Covotes Ate His Frozen Body.

AUSTIN, New, March S.-A young German
rancher named Leopold Bauman, who left
Santa Rosa Cal. in December last for his
ranch, forty miles distant from Austin ar
rived at Cortez, New, on January IL and
departed for his home, thirty-five miles
away, on horseback. At that time fully
thirty inches of snow covered the ground.
few days ago brother of Bauman's had
occasion TO 90 to Cortez from the ranch,
and when three miles OF the journey was
covered found his brothers saddle and
blankets, together with an overcoat. On
reaching Cortez he found that his brother
had left there on the aboye-named day,
but had never reached home. A searching
Marty returned 10 the scene and found a
watch, knife, boots and clothes, which
were identified, and two human hip joints
The supposition is that the horse became
fatigued. whereupon Bauman unsaddIed
him to walk the rest OF the journey, being
but three miles, and under the piercing
cold gave UP and froze TO death. The body
was eaten by coyotes. He was aged about
81 wears and was married.
