MISSING MISS ANDERSON.
The Strange Disappearance OF . Boss
hurgh MomAn Still n MYsterY.

KETTLE Falls, Dec. %. - Especial. -
More than week ago young woman by
the name of Anderson disappeared from
Bossburgh and nothing has been learned
of her whereabouts since. She and her
brother kept a boarding house at Boss
burgh and the evening she disappeared
they had had some misunderstanding.
Shortly after the sister left the house with
only a shawl over her head and was seen
going toward the river. The brother did
not know of her absence until supper
time, when. becoming alarmed, he started
to make inquiries for her. A few days
later a man made cautious inquiries ST the
hotels and boarding houses in Kettle Falls
to learn if any young woman had been
engaged as help.
As several days elapsed and no trace of
the woman was found her friends feared she
has drowned herself in the waters of the
Columbia. The fact that she left money
to the amount of 500 in her trunk and
took nothing with her, confirms the be-
lief. One of the men at the boarding
house claims that he went. three days
after her disappearance, 10 place on the
river about three miles from Miss Ander-
sons home and found her hat on the river
bank. Subsequent search by others failed
TO find any tracks leading TO the spot but
the mans tracks. And the story of the
hat does not agree with that of her having
only q shawl on her head when LAST seen.

OuestiPnius Governor's Right to Call
Spseial Election for Representative.


OLYMPIA. Dec. 2s.-iSpecial.-l-Th Though
Gov. Ferry has called special election for
representative from the Thir,y-thi-d dis
trict. TO be held on January :, doubt is
expressed as to whether he has had such
official notice of the tie in that district as
affords basis tor the proclamation. Gov.
Ferry. however. has no doubt a. TO his
power. He holds that the official notice
that he has received from the auditor OF
Pierce county is sufficient, though those
who take the opposite view declare
that there is no provision of law author!z-
ing an auditor to give the governor such
notice. They argue that the certificate of
the tie should follow the same course as a
certificate of election. and that a due
official note can only reach the governor
from the legislature.
Gov. Ferry, however, even If he had
been in doubt about his right to issue the
call. would not have wanted to bear the
responsibility of leaving the district un-
represented during an important portion
OF the session. AS 1t is. the new member
even ii no question is raised in the house
as to the regularity of his election, will
not be able to take his seat in time TO as
sist in the organization of the house, as
the canvass and certihcation of the vote of
the district will consume two or three days
after the commencement of the session.
The house. however, it is suggested, may
go into an investigation of the first cleo
ton, decide that there was really no tie
and seat one of the men who are said to be
tied, by virtue OF Its power to judge of the
election of its members. There is chance
for an interesting compiication

tand's Representative IN the Senate.


WASHINGTON CITY, Dec. -. -- The Star
this evening says: Politicians here do
not believe Murphy, of New York. can be
defeated for the United States senate, and
they believe Cleveland appreciates the
fact. At present Cleveland has no per-
sonal representative in the senate who is
long experienced and in a position 10 act
as leader. Should he succeed in the cleo
ton of personal friend in New York it
would not improve the situation greatly. as
no new man, however capable, can figure
very prominently.
Cleveland will. however. have a strong
personal friend in the senate by the time
the Fifty-third congress is organized, un-
less all present plans miscarry. This will
be Bayard Of Delaware. 1t is expected
Senator Gray will go into the cabinet. His
retirement from the senate will mean the

THE Mupwumps and Free Traders
who were thrown into a panic by
the publication of Commissioner OF
Labor Peck's report on the opera
tons of the Mckinley tariff in New
York State have recovered their
breath sufficient to secure legal
order designed to compel the Com
missioner to divulge the sources Of
his information. As the documents
are of a semi public character, he
will probably have to produce them,
and, on the whole, it will be good
thing if he can prove his case in
court. 1t is barely possible, how
ever, that there is no real intention
on that side to allow him to do this.
The purpose of the present proceed
ing is more that of a "bluff" than
anything else, and the whole 'suit''
will probably fall through before
many days. 1t can do no possible
public good to know what individuals
furnished the facts, provided the
facts themselves are correct, and
this no one doubts. Pending further
developments, however, the uproar
is of unusual value as indicating the
character of the Democratic conf
dence in man who was originally
appointed by Governor Cleveland
and who held the Mugwump sup
port as long as he furnished such
materials as the Free Trade cause
demanded.

THE Democratic candidate for
Governor of Missouri declared the
other day in a public speech that if
Congress should pass a Federal
elections law he would use "the
whole power of the State to prevent
its enforcement" and that "the Off
Gals who might be appointed to
execute the new law would be taken
by the heels and thrown into the
Mississippi as food for the fishes"
~ a.-s.sss, ork .Suu calls this only
"the nYperbolical expression Of a
sentiment deep-seated in the heart OF
every patriotic Democrat of the
South" People who have a respect
for law, order and the Constitution
will call it the reckless mounting of
fool or tippler, or the seditious
utterances of a traitor.

In the West there are just two
doubtful States-Indiana and Mon

good chance for victory in the
former State as have the Democrats,
and they have better chance in the
latter. In every other Western
State it is entirely safe to say that
the Republicans will win. This is
the outlook at this moment.

You are used to seeing
dainty designs and delicate

have any Carpet memory
eclipsed by these latest love-
Illnesses.
Such patterns! Such col
orings! Surely Oriental art
has cast its exquisite sunlight
over all these things.
The Carpet thought has
been to get an unmatchable
gathering of these fine goods.
We believe it is here. to-day.
Many OF the designs, most of
them indeed, can not be shown
by any other house in town.
We have had the pick and
choice Of the creamiest work
of the leading Carpet makers.
From the Bigelow Com
pany come Administers, Will
tons and Brussels.
From the Lowell Company
come Wiltons, Brussels and
lngrains.
THE work of both is so celebrated TO
qualit, and for beauty and originality or
designs that limitations would alb ,und il
it were possible. It. isn't. The wordf

in the other is woven at frequent inter
walls in the back of all their higher grade
Carpets.
From Alex. Smith & Sons
came Administers, Moquettes
and Tapestries.
Wherever the best could be
had to your advantage and to
ours there have we done the
choosing.
We could never before
show YOU Carpets SO easily
and satisfactorily. Sit at your
ease. Ample samples with
borders, ifso be, will be spread
SO that you can see a dozen
patterns at once with less
strain than when you saw two

Dots, spots, specks, blots,
dabs. All these touch many
sorts of Dress Goods this sea-
son. Dots on Dress Goods.
Sounds simple enough, but
try, as the phrase goes, to get
them "down to dots" put
them in language-well you'll
give it up.
But dots and spots literally
figure largely, or muchly, in
Dress Goods this Autumn.
They have power in style.
Little tinted specks, small
as pin-head or smaller, how
they bring out design and
color, enrich style otherwise
lament. They make designs
emphatic, like italics in types
or intersections in talk.
Iridescent cOlors are much
in vogue, the best of them are
spotted. The spots, often
merely dots, make the colors
simmer, heighten the effect.
A little mite of a dot on a Bed
ford Cord develops the whole
pattern. Silk dots on Wor-
steds, either self-color or in
contrasts; dabs of Angora
Goats hair (miscalled camePs
hairy, blots of black Plush on
changeable cross-rlbbed pat
terms, make the styles eXquis-
itely complete.
Since the savage beauty Of
the leopard's costume set the
fashion, spots have been pop
ular in Dress Goods. Like
the "spots'' OF the exchanges
these spots are here; no
futures in spots at this spot.
How many women are rest
less, disturbed over the ques-
ton of Autumn Dress! Why
not settle the question now?
