There will be light!

Fresh bread daily at Aberdeen Bakery.
Clyde Weatherwax, DR.. Stapp, Waldo
Hart, Chas. Smith, and several others,
went up the river as far as Montesano
yesterday and enjoyed some fine fishing.
The Puget Sound Fishing Company
are again buying fish at this place. A
carload of boxes were unloaded on G. E.
Burrows & Co.'s wharf, Wednesday, in
which to ship them.
The Aberdeen Rod and Gun Club have
fitted up their club house at South Bay
with a complete outfit of household furni-
ture and kitchen utensils, and will be
prepared during the season to entertain
their members and guests in comfort
able manner.
Mr.. and Mrs. F. R. Wall left last Fri
day for several weeks outing among the
hop fields of the Puyallup valley. They
drove from Montesano, and intend to
camp out, and enjoy a substantial rest.
Mrs. Wall will occupy part of the time
preparing a magazine article, while Mr..
Wall will probably amuse himself pick
ing hops-or fishing.
Our base ball team returned home fiom
Chehalis Tuesday, but were not met by
the brass band. With victory theirs
nothing is too good for them, but in de-
feat there is none SO poor to do them
honor. On Saturday they were badly
defeated, and having to play the next
game in the rain, there was no inspira-
ton to play ball, and consequently were
again defeated. The elements were against
them. The scores we're: Saturday, Che
halls IS, Aberdeen 81 Sunday, Chehalis
II, Aberdeen 5.
The managers Of the Pacific Hotel are
determined to make their hotel credit
to Aberdeen. They are paying particular
attention to the table.
Some person, intent upon a joke at the
expense of the public, on Monday, sent
an apparent official message from Signal
Officer Pague, of Portland, to the Board
of Trade of this city, stating that the
coasts of Oregon and Washington would
be visited by tidal wave between and
8 p. m. The appearance Of the sky be-
ing very threatening at that time, quite a
number Of the more gullibIe citizens were
ready to take to the hills. A copy of the
supposed official message was forwarded
to Hoquiam, and one of her prominent
citizens, fitted out with pair of field
glasses and red flag, FASTENED to the
top of Heerman's hill to give warning to
the town, of its impending inundation, at
the first appearance of the monster.
Dement'S flour, made of Washington
grown wheat, is superior article.
Kroenert Bros. have handled several cars
of it, and have just received another.
Each of the three Sunday mornings
since the Rev. Mr.. Joslyn's return to the
pastorate of Aberdeen Methodism for
another year, he has preached from the
same text, though by no means the same
sermon. Next Sunday morning he ex-
poets to preach from the same again.
The text is that of I. Corinthians, 3 9,
and is only composed of fifteen words,
but they must be basal words to hold the
intelligent thought of thinking people for
four consecutive discusses, as they will
have done next Sunday. 1t has been
suggested that perhaps it would be well
to keep on preaching all the year from
the same text, if SO much Of practical
good can be gotten out of single verse
of scripture.
The annual fair of Lewis county will

October 3, 4, and 6, good until October
