The Way to Aberdeen.

| The following data concerning the
best method of reaching Aberdeen from
the Sound is worth reprinting from the
Westport Daily World Passengers take
the Northern Pacific train which leaves
Seattle at 8 :15 and Tacoma at 10 a. m.
sharp. This train is called the Olympia
and Gray's Harbor Special" and runs to
Gate City, via Olympia, reaching Gate
City at noon. At Gate City there is a
delay of about an hour, or until the train
from Portland arrives, when the Gray's
Harbor Branch train leaves at l :15 p. m.
for Harbor points. Passengers for Aber-
deem and Hoquiam leave the train at
South Aberdeen and take the ferryboat
across the river to Aberdeen for 10 cents.
At the wharf in Aberdeen the ferry is
met by covered hacks, which carry pass
engers to Hoquiam, miles away, over
smooth plank road. Fare % cents.
Time of trip, hour.
Train reaches South Aberdeen from
Tacoma at 8 :35, p. m. and from Ocosta
at 10 rs, a. m. and makes close connec-
tions with Hoquiam buses, which leave
for Hoquiam at 1890 and 4:l5, and
arrive in Hoquiam at noon and p. m.
Returning, the Hoquiam buses leave
for Aberdeen at $50 a. m. and 2:30
p. M, arrive at Aberdeen at 8 80 am.
and 3 80 p. m. Ferry leaves Aberdeen
for South Aberdeen every 80 minutes, to
connect with train for outside points,
giving passengers time to attend to their
baggage before trains depart

A TELEPHONE POLE WAR.

We mentioned Saturday that new
telephone poles were being distrib-
uted and were to be erected to take
the place of the old ones, The new
poles are 40 and so feet high. whereas
the old ones were 25 and 80 feet. Four
carloads of new poles have been re-
ceived and month will be required
to put them up. A force of eleven men
is at work, and several poles have
been raised.
The system is being changed at the
same time, the metallic or long dis
lance system succeeding the ground
system. This will afford much bet
ter service, and words spoken can be
more distinctly heard, says Manager
Buckholtz, under whose supervision
the new poles are being erecten.
The new poles are being put IN
somewhat closer together than the
old, on account of the increased num-
Der of wires. Some of the property
owners in front of whose property
posts are to be located are very seri-
ously Directing to this. Among these
are A. J. Busch, NJ. Jost and Mich
Long, although the latter has finally
consented to have post in front of
one of his stores. Mr.. Busch has Sc
cured papers enjoining the company
from placing pole in front of his
store, although he has not yet had
them served. He has twice stopped
the work there and if it is resumed
will have the papers served. He de-
sires that the poles be placed in the
alley, as the wires would very seri-
ously interfere with the fire depart
ment in case of fire. He has inter-
viewed a number of the Front Street
property owners and has found them
all of the same mind.
Mr.. Buckholtz states that the Elec-
trio Light Company has its poles on
one side of the alley, and that where
there are high buildings cross-arms
could not be placed on poles on the
other side of the alley. The poles
would have to be put up against the
sides of buildings.
A legal point arises as to the power
of the council to locate poles. The
charter gives power to council COM
mittee. The Supreme Court stood
evenly divided on the question when
raised in another case.

HOW TO GROOM A HORSE.

The few stable hands who know how
TO groom horse properly are gen
orally too indolent to do it, 1t is quite
an art to clean horse as he should be
cleaned, and it is no easy job. For
that reason he is seldom groomed as
he should be. A groom must be ac-
tive, strong and experienced. Every
inch of the horse, beginning at the
head, should be gone over thoroughly
with brush, comb and rag.
A man who would not much rather
take care of his own horse, provided
he has the time, has not true love for
the horse. No animal will repay one
for care and attention like the horse.
He will show it not only in appearance
externally, but in health and spirits,
Good grooming will do as much in i'm

additional four quarts Of oats per day.
In grooming n horse properly he
should be tied from side TO eide 10 that
he cannot throw his head around and

he is sure to do under the comb if he
is not of a disposition too phlegmatic
