Gardening is the rage now, and some
very pretty ones are being laid out and
in the village.
We are sorry to note that Mr. J. Al
eXaudcr is quite i'll,
At the literary society last Saturday
evening "a very handsome cane was
presented to Captain Mathews by the
citizens of this place, i'm recognition of
the esteem they hold for him. The
good old captain leaves for Southern
Washington next week to be absent a
year or more. Before leaving he gave
the freedom of his home to the village
for such public purposes as they may
wish to use it.
Again the angel of peace has visited
our ll,tle burg and placed in the arms
Of Mrs. Albert Norman bouncing
boy. Mother and child are doing
nicely, and that broad smile on
Alberts face does one good to look at.
The government employees made
their usual quarterly trip to Tulalip
last week, where Uncle Sam has sent
them "a few of his 'shinplasters." They
report spring two weeks ahead here on
the bay. Our fruit trees are in full
bloom, while there they are just be-
ginning to bud.
Henry d Son have just completed
the building Of large dry house, and
resume work again at once on the
shiugle mill. The shingles cut by this
firm are Of the finest quality and are
always in demand.
With sorrow we record the death of
Mrs. Hope, of Ferudalc, who passed
away on Thursday last, the 3lst ult.
For some years Mrs Hope has been in
very delicate health and tine sudden
death of her mother and eldest son,
about year ago, proved too great u
blow for her weak constitution. To
her bereaved family and the other dear
friends whom she has left behind, we
extend our deepest sympathies. In
the dearly departed was ever found
those virtues which stamp the char
aCter of good, noble and loving wife
aud mother. Her greatest joy was i'm
lending helping hand to the poor and
needy. Thus she endeared herself to
those who were Ottuuate to know her,
and in her short earthly career she has
set an example from which we cannot
fail to draw many good and useful les
sons. BgYCHEINGOG.

PERSIAN PUNISHMENT.

Extraordinary Laws In Force in the Land
Of the Shah.
An extraordinary punishment, almost
equal to that of cutting off the nose, is
now in vogue in Persia. 1t was intro
duced by tho present shah. with view
to putting q stop to the petty pilfer'
ing that had unbridled sway for hun
dreds of years.
1t consists in taking a. culprit through
the following course of sprouts" and
is said to be very effectual, especially
when it has been applied to one guilty
of the third offense: The first time a
man is caught in the act of stealing he
is 'sbastlnadoed" (bcaten on the soles OF
his feat with an iron rod and made to
sign paper declaring that that will be
his last offense.
1t he forgets this when the soles OF
his feet quit burning. and tries 1t again,
the second offense calls for the amputa-
ton of his right hand. II he is still OBJ
durate, and goes at it lefthanded, the
third act, and, of course, the last resort.
