PROOF OF MERIT,

The proof of the merits of a plaster is the
cures 1t effects, and the voluntary testimonials
of those who have used ALLcocK's Porous
FLAsTERs during the past thirty years is unim-
peachable evidence OF their superiority and
should convince the most skeptical. Self-praise
is no recommendation, but certificates from
those who have used them are.
Beware of limitations and do not be deceived
by misrepresentation. Ask for ALLCocK's S, and
let no solicitation or explanation induce you to
accept q substitute.

Bridge Between the City and Annexed
District to Be Rebuilt.
The board OF public works met yesterday
afternoon. A petition was received from La
tona, etc., for an improvement in the roadway
between tho city and the northeast side OF the
lake. 1t is particularly requested that the
bridge, which was burned down last year.
should be rebuilt. The board ordered the Ne
oessary work done.
A petition by Messrs. B. Pelly, W. A. Peters
and Josiah Collins, asking for relief from an
accumulation of water on Eleventh, between
Union and Pike streets, was rejected, as the
street had been graded by private contract.
W. A. Peters offered to put sidewalk at Third
and Sprirs If the city would do the curbing.
Complaint was made of the condition of West
street between Wall and Vine 1t will be at
tended to. as will also . request for repairs on
West street from Union street.
DR.. G. II. Randell asked that claim made by
E. H. Randall for the grading OF Water street,
which was stopped before completion, be al
lowed The board decided not to allow it, as
the contractor had asssnted to the suspension
without making any claim.

PREMIER-FRIsrAD INQUIRY.
All Testimony Taken Libel on tn
Premier Probable.

The taking Of the direct testimony in the
steamer Premier and Norwegian bark Fristad
collision ease before the inspectors was con-
cluded Thursday evening, but there is q large
amount Of expert testimony to be heard, and
court decisions have to be looked up yet, 80 the
case was continued until next Friday. Captain
Bulleue said yesterday that the inyestiga-
ton has taken on the form of a judicial
bearing with view to an action
against the Premier for damages, instead
OF the simple fixing OF the responsibility with
reference to the licensed officers on the steamer,
as the board intended it should lie. He says all
the Norwegian consular agents have taken the
matter up, and. it is developing some features
which the board is really incompetent to pass
upon in any other capacity than that of an ar.
bitrator. He thinks it will finally end in libel
on the Premier, which should have been the
first step from the turn the inquiry has taken. !

REAL ESTATE THE BASIS OF WEALTH.

Nothing makes wealth faster than the rapid
Advancement in real estate values. There are
hundreds of examples OF this fact to be wit
messed every day in the year. Probably more
men have been made wealthy in Seattle from
this one source than from any other, il not all
others. Take majority of Seattle's wealthiest
men, you will find that although they may have
accumulated wealth in banking, mercantile and
other pusuits, still they have increased their
many fold. Real estate 10 the basis of all
wealth. The planking of the streets to the
addition OF River Park, the completion of the
street car line, the building Of the Northern
Pacific car and machine shops at the south end,
the excellent soil, the level lots and the low
prices OF the same, combine to makesit the one
place for Investments. Gould IL Whitworth
handle this addition. Moral-Invest in River
Park, $50 to SIPS.

A schooner stuck in the Mud.

The three-mast schooner Premier, which flu
ished loading lumber In Salmon bay last week
for San Francisco, got aground when she was
being towed out Sunday. An attempt was made
to get her out on every tide, but she struck the
bottom again every time until yesterday. The
tug Mystic succeeded in getting her out, and
will tow her down the Sound today until she
catches a breeze SO she can sail out to sea- Much
larger vessels than the Premier have loaded in
Salmon bay and gotten out without difficulty,
but she seemed to be out of luck.

self anxious to assist her out Of her difficult
ties. and would do so if she would employ
him for that purpose.
On the 1st ult. he further represented that
he was about to take his wife TO Carson for
the benet bit Of her health. and while there
he would Ike to investigate the affairs Of
the estate, because he believed she was
being detrauded by various persons con-
nected with it, and that she was entitled TO
large sum Of money then IN the hands Of

attorney to proceed. Ellis wrote what he

for him to investigate the affairs Of the

read, but he allayed her misgivings by stat

the investigations made by him. nor has he
