GETTING READY.

But eleven days remain before the as
sembling of the republican state conven-
tion in this city. There is much to do be-
fore that time. The joint committee for
the entertainment of the delegates of both
conventions have been appointed, as will
be seen elsewhere and will begin active
work at once. 1t is especially desirable
that all persons having rooms to spare on
either occasion should let it be known to
the committee The republican con
vention will begin on the 10th of Au-
gust and the democratic convention on the
oath. The hospitality extended to the
crowds Of people which will visit the city
next month, and the caring for their COM
fort should be so marked that
precedent shall be established by
which Olympia will become known
as "The Convention City," Some fear has
been expressed that the hotels, restau-
rants and boarding houses will not be able
to feed the people. There need be no fear
on that score. In addition to the above
named places, the capacity of which will
be doubled, it is understood that various
church and other societies are going to
open temporary eating places, where "all
the comforts of home" can be enjoyed by
the guests. The city authorities are fixing
up the streets as fast as possible, and it is
to be hoped the court house and its sur
roundings will be so far finished as to be
open for the inspection of the strangers
within our gates.

BRUSH UP.

The city will soon be crowded with visit
ors; some of them strangers, others who
have probably not been here since Olympia
was village. Let them, therefore, go
home with a good impression of the state
capital. There are many little things to be
attended to, that will greatly improve the
appearance of the streets. The cutters
need cleaning. Rubbish is thoughtlessly
swept into the streets. DISTINCTIONS should
be removed from all sidewalks, and defec-
tive walks should be put in good order.
The walk in front of Grainger's barn and
the down grade in front of the Silsby block
are particularly alluded to as a disgrace at
such time. The city can certainly pro
vide man and team to pick up and carry
away all dirt and rubbish on the public
highway.

and that is DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-

it out. These are the facts
If you're weak and delicate woman. then
the " Favorite Prescription builds you up;
if you suffer from any Of the painful dis
orders and arrangements peculiar to your
sex, it relieves and cures Il invigorates
the system, improves digestion, enriches
the blood, dispels aches and pains, brings
refreshing Sleep and restores health and
strength. All the chronic weaknesses, ir-
Irregularities, and disturbances known as
female complaints are completely aud
permanently cured by it.
These are facts, and they're strong enough
TO warrant the makers in guaranteeing their
remedy. If it fails to benefit or cure, you

women is sold on such terms That proves
that nothing else can be just as good.h

A person usually desires to gain some in
formation as to the most desirable route to

that will afford him the quickest and best
service. Before starting on a trip to
Chicago or any point east, you should pro
vide yourself with map and time table of
the Wisconsin Central lines. The trains
run on this route are vestibuled and are
equipped with Pullman's latest drawing
room sleepers, elegant day coaches and
dining cars of latest design, built expressly
for this service, and are exquisite in furn-
ishings and convenient and comfortable in
arrangement and so complete in every
detail that they have no superior in COM
fort and elegance. The dining car service
is pronounced by all the most elegant ever
inaugurated, and is operated in the interest
of its patrons.
Fast trains via the Wisconsin Central
lines leave Minneapolis daily at 12:45

Sixty or Forty Days.

There seems to be some doubt re-
garding the duration of the next
session. The Constitution provides
for a 60 day session, At the last
session an amendment to Article 20
was passed but in order to become a
part of the Constitution it should
have been advertised for 90 days
pyiorto November Sth and then voted
on and passed again,
1t was not published for 80 days as
tle law provides and the Appeal is of
the opinion that the failure to com
ply with the law invalidates all the
amendments adopted by the last
Legislature. If this view is correct
the session will last 90 days instead
of No. Carson Appeal.

A Horrible Accident.

A shocking accident happened near
the railroad round house on Monday
afternoon. An Indian boy. about Is
years old, and known as Dick,
climbed on the pilot of an engine as
it was moving slowly along the track
to connect with some ears. As he
was in the way of the train hands
who desired to make the coupling he
was told to move to one side. but he
attempted to jump from the pilot,
and his foot caught and he fell across
the track in front of the engine. Be
fore the trainmen could stop the
engine the forward wheel had passed
over both the unfortunate boys legs
at the knee joint. and completely
severed them from the body The
injured boy was taken to Urquhart
Hall, where everything possible was
done for him. Subsequently he was
taken to his wickiup, where he
fingered until about midnight, when
he died.

Vile and Unworthy

Of consideration are nostrums of which it
is assertcd-and there are many such
that they cure Immediately bodily all
ments of long standing. There are none
such that can. Chronic disorders cannot
be instantaneously removed. Continuity
in the use of genuine medicine, such az
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, will eradicate
chronic physical evils. Not the least Of
these last in the force of its opposition to
medicine is constipation, to the removal of
which. if persisted in, the Bitters is par
ticularly adapted. Construction of the
bowels is Il complaint which should be
dealt with early and systematically. SO
are its usual attendants, liver complaint
and dyspepsia. For these, for malaria,

The year of greatest growth in
boys is the 18th; in girls the 14tb.
While girls reach full hight in their
18th year, they acquire full weight at
the age of 20. Boys are stronger
than girls from birth to the 18th
year; then girls become physically
superior until the 18th year. when
the tables are again turned and re-

A NEEDED IMPROVEMENT.
A Few Suggestions to the Resi-
dents of Hawthorne.

Why don you plant some trees
in your cemetery asked stranger
at the Nucleus Hotel last evening.
Can't get water for them. re-
piled Hawthorne man.
Is water scarce here?' queried
the inquisitive stranger.
mo. There is plenty water, but
you see there are no pipes running
to the cemetery
Well, that is very poor excuse.
and you ought to be ashamed of il.
How much will it cost to run small
pipe from the lower end of town to
the cemetery? Two hundred dollars
will do it, and just think what a
difference it would make in the ap-
pearance Of your burial ground.
Besides, what pleasure and COM
fort il would be to those having loved
ones lying there to be enabled to
plant trees and flowers over their
graves. 1t would be an example to
your children to honor and reverence
the dead, and your desolate looking
plot would soon become an object of
local pride, rather than the eyesore
that it is Let every man in town
contribute Il few dollars, and the
thing is done
The remarks of the stranger are
worthy of attention. The condition
of our cemetery is deplorablc. 1t is
true we cannot afford any great eX-
pense, but we can start Il suhScrip-
ton and collect money enough to
place decent fence around the
grounds and to conduct sutli eient
water to them to irrigate few trees
and flowers.
And while we are on the subject
would it not be we'll to have book
kept to record the date of birth, the
date of death and the nativity of all
those inferred here? The person who
kept this book would, for trifing
compensation, attend to irrigating
the grounds.
What public spirited citizen will
take the initiative in this matter.

thrown it is swung over the head and

The Big Wind.

The severcst wind storm that has
visited our town for many years came
along last Wednesday, 1t came
from the southwest, and shook things
up in great shape. The big fence
over and the bath-house in the corral
was capsized. The roof was peeled
off of Brodigans barn, and the brick
chimneys on the Nucleus Hotel were
demolished. The fence around Mrs.
Sutton lot was leveled, and swing
ing signs, awnings and tin cans
played leap frog over the house tops.
Fortunately no serious damage was
done and nobody was hurt.
