Choosing a wife

An excellent man was wont to observe
that when he chose wife he should look
for mental rather than physicai graces.
Favor is deceitful, and beauty is vain. =

His sisters, finding him slow to designate

President Cleveland's Inaugural which
was published in full In The DAILY
LEADER of yesterday should be read
deliberately by every thinking citizen
1t is without question the ablest ano
smoothest state document the president
has ever written. The tenor ID so even
and the purpose SO lofty that compared
with the demogogical utterances OF the
party platform on which he was elected
his position is more at variance with the
principles of his party as enunciated in
platform of the last twenty years than
it is with the history and position of
the republican party. He is starting In
with the evident intention of pursuing
the golden mean and will come out very
nearly republican.

Boston Advertiser: There is one thing
that should be changed before another
funeral is held in the senate il it is de-
sired TO make the ceremonies dignified
and impressive. This is the costuming
OF those senators and congressman who
are chosen to act as honorary pallbearers
and escort the body to the home OF the
dead senator. This was well illustrated
by the funeral OF Senator Kenna. On
the front row sat the president and his
cabinet, all dressed in black, with black
neckties and black gloves. In the next
row sat the members of the supreme
court in their awkward and glistening
gowns OF black silk, while behind the
judges were the foreign ministers, all in
black
just across the aisle in the seats OF
honor aud prominence sat the senator's
and congressman who had been selected
10 act as pallbearers and to represent
congress on the funeral train. Senator
Faulkner, at the head OF the line, was
resplendent with necktie OF brilliant red
spots, while next to him the light blue
trousers and colored tie OF Senator
Blackburn were very conspicuous. Con-
gressman Bingham, Of Pennsylvania, by
common acceptance, the best dressed
man in the house, had on large white
silk nacktiA. while CONGRESSMAN Outh-
w1ite, OF Ohio, wore neckwear OF glisten-
ing blue. Congressman Wilson, OF West
Virginia. wore light trousers and many
colored tie, and other pallbearers were
guilty OF the same violation OF the canon
of good taste
Then, too, the government should pro-
cure new lot OF mourning sashes
Halt Of them are distigured with marks
OF age, and present an appearance more
striking thar eppsopriste.

A. Davis of cathlamet Writes Threat
ening Letter


Judge Langhorn has issued war
rant for the arrest Of A. Davis, for
merly connected with the Cathlamet
Gazette, and when the papers are serv-
ed, Davis will be taken before com
mission of lunacy. 1t appears that
about two weeks ago Davis wrote a
letter to the following named gentle
men: o. M. Harvey, j. Bruce Pol
worth, George M. Cornwall editor of
the Gazette), Charles Warren, and A.
d. Birnie, in which he made rather
peculiar demand. The letter was
couched in terms about as follows. as
near as an Astorian reporter was able
to ascertain:
"Sirs: Revenge is sweet You must
atone for your crime. / demand $4,000,
the money to be placed in my drawer
in my room before midnight on No
vember 18th. If you do not comply
with my request 1 will burn your build
ings and place each of you under the
sod" A. DAVIS.
When the letter was read, the gen.

themselves, and put watch on War
ren's cannery, in order to be prepared
for emergencies should incendiarism be
attempted. Davis then locked himself
in his room and could not be per-
suaded to emerge therefrom. The sher-
if attempted to dislodge him, but with
out avail, and 1t was not until the
expiration of forty-eight hours, during
which he had neither food nor drink,
that the evidently insane man re-
appeared. When he did come out, he
at once took the boat for Portland and
was seen there a few days ago by a
resident of Westport. The residents of
Cathlamet are much exercised over the
threatening letter, and vow that sane
on insane, Davis will never again reside
there.

THE STORM.
Unusually High Tide Yesterday Causes
Considerable Damage.

Shortly before noon yesterday water
was noticed coming into the basement
of Foard & Stokes grocery establish
ment, and before the goods which were
stored there could be removed, damage
amounting to nearly $780, according
to an estimate by Mr. Foard, had been
sustained. In about half an hour
time the water rose to a height or some
ten inches. The damaged stock consist
ed of canned goods, nails, etc.
In M. C. Crosby's basement the en-
ployes were surprised to find about
nine inches of water at noon, but the
damage is only nominal. The rapidity
of the rise of the water was a subject
of considerable discussion yesterday on
the streets.
AS far as could be learned, no further
damage was done in the city.

WHO OWNS THE BRICKS?
Wade Hampton Smiths Case TalIel
Under Amusement.

The case of Wade Hampton Smith
charged with assault with a deadly
weapon, came up before Justice Cleve-
land yesterday, and was taken under
advisement after hearing the testi-
mony, which, together with an ex-
change of pleasantries between the le-
gal brethren, was interesting. Fulton
Bros. defended Mr.. Smith, and A. r,
Kanaga for the prosecution. The
evidence showed that the facts of the
case were substantially as published in
these columns on Wednesday. It also
appeared that after the bricks had been
sold under the terms of the chattel
mortgage Mr.. Smith had caused a
fence to be erected on his property
across the only means of access to the
brick yard, and it was this obstruction
that Christensen was in the act of re-
moving when accosted by Mr.. Smith.
The evidence further showed that Sher-
iff Smith wrote two letters to- Mr..
Smith warning him not to interfere
with the men, as they owned the bricks
and had a right to remove them. Mr.
Kanaga stated that his client would
take the property if he had to do so
by force of arms, to which Mr.. Fulton
responded that his client would hold on
to the property and use a gun if ne
cessary.
