A STEP IN LITERATURE.

The APPEAL is IN receipt of ''TaleI
of Soldiers and Civilians" by Am
brose Bierce.
The book is not destined to make
any pronounced stir in the present
generation, but it will live through
the next and then become an endur.
ing classic of the war
The author has been before the
public many years, a vastly misun-
derstood and badly appreciated man.
He has never written for the public
applause, never catered to the mob
or ever gone out of his way TO shake
han1s with the critics. He is the
strongest writer of the present gen
Grafton and by all odds the most orig
inal. His satire has the keen swish
of the scimiter, his style is something
unapproachable in its perfection and
his descriptive work the very acme of
force and beauty.
In his stories the reader follows
a new path with surprise at every
turn of the road. The denouement
is the greatest shock of all and when
you have reached it you pinch your
self to be certain that you are awake.
Some of the battle scenes are
masterpieces of the horrible, and
through all is a brutal descriptive
faculty found nowhere else in litera~
ture outside of Hugo. Dying horses
beat the brains out of their masters
soldiers kill their comrades to put
them out of misery, and filthy swine
root with bloody muzzles in the en-
trails of the slain. When dealing
with the motives of human beings,
he is denounced as cynie, but his
cynlcism comes from keencr obser-
walton and deeper psychological zen
etration into human nature than his
fellows. He sees mankind as it is,
not as it appears. The book abounds
in fine touches of this rare faculty
vouchsafed to the few.
One would like to see such work
take the place at once that it ought
by its own worth to occupy in htera-
ture, but so long as the reading pub
lie is content to pour over the drivel
ing platitudes of Black, the long and
spun out stuff of Howells
md the cratic slush that flows from
so many pens, one can not expect
popular welcome to Mr.. Bierce
1t would take lots more of such
books to lift the public taste to their
evel and if Bierce does not write
hem no one else can. The book is
stride in literature

ON A HISTORIC SITE.
Excavation for YesIer's New Building
Recalls Old Slab Pile.

Excavation for Yesler's New Building
Recalls Old Slab Pile.
The excavation for a new brick building to DO
erected by H L Yesler at the southeast corner
of Yesler avenue and Post street mas brought to
light the old slab pile of the first sawmilbever
erected in this city or on Puget sound. This
mill was erected on the north side OF what Is
now Yes!er avenue, below Front street, in the
spring OF 1858, the original settlers having re-
adjusted their claims so to let him in. The
claim which he thus obtained is now the bust
ness center of the city. He operated sawmill
on the site of the original one until shortly be-
fore the great fire, when he removed it to the
town OF Yesler on Lake Washington.
The excavation for the new building goes far
down below the present level OF Yesler avenue.
AT first the workmen struck only mud. but they
soon came to line of old piles, which seemed
to have been the foundation for wharf at some
distant day. As they dug further down their
shovels struck wood, and had to be thrown
aside for the ak. For several days they have
been steadily chopping through water-soaked
slabs, which are probably taken from some OF
the first logs sawed into lumber on the Sound.
Others of these slabs have been dragged out
from their moist bed, and now lie above ground,
relics of the city's babyhood.
The building to be erected on this historic site
will be a tonr=stogy brick, with pressed brick
front, S0x100 feet, and will be occupied by
Fischer & Mcdonald as a wholesale grocery
warehouse. 1t will have a stone foundation,
fire shutters on all sides, fire hydrant stand
pipe, fire escape and fre-proof gravel roof. 1t
will be heated by the steam Heat and Power
Company, and have q hydraulic elevator. The
top story will have a cement floor, specially
built for the roasting of coffee. 1t will be fn-
ished in three months.

DISEASES OF WOMEN.
Treatment and Cure by an Entirely
New and Successful Method.

Female diseases are extremely common,
and none are more complicated and diln-
cult of treatment than the class generally
known as female complaints" and none
which are the cause of greater misery ana
woe. Such are their habits of dress that
the natural circulation of the body Is dis
turbed, bringing too much blood to the pei
vic regiol causing congestion, iniiamIna-
ton andslceration, relaxation OF the alb
domlnal muscles, causing falling OF the
bowels, and, as consequence, the dis-
placement OF the bladder ard uterus. In
fact, most of the difficulties arise from dis
placement or falling of the organs. For
such cases the only rational cure consists
of contracting the muscles and append
ages of support. Uterine diseases are not
incurable, but when properly treated, yield
readily, as the disposition of all such
cases is to get well. Electromagnetic
treatment, as practiced by Drs. Darrin, is
positive cure for all these painful COM
plants and weaknesses peculiar to women.
1t removes congestion by equalizing the
circulation Of the blood and nervous tluid
strengthens the muscles of the uterus and
lifts il into place; contracts the muscular
fibres and lmparts healthy tone to the
relaxed organs. Electromagnetic will
entirely cure the worst form of intiamma-
ton, liberation, flooding, irregular or
tardy menstruation and female troubles OF
possible for woman after a faithful course
of treatment to have weakness. Hun
dreds of women cherish grateful remem-
brance of the health they have derived
from electromagnetic treatment as ad-
ministered by Drs Darrin.
Cures of male or female complaints are
withheld in professional confidence, with
due regard to delicacy of the patients.
DRs. pARRIS's PLACE OF BUSINESS.

destination, and no trace of him can be found
He was an enterprising farmer and breeder of
tine stock, well known throughout the West.
His habits were exemplary and his business af-
fairs in excellent shape, SO no reasonable theory
can be advanced FOR his voluntary absence. He
may have met with foul play or wandered away
during a sudden alteration of mind. He was
81 years OF age, about Eve feet ten inches in

cernsd he could not give any information. 4
