FURIOUS LITTLE ANIMALS.
Fatal Fight Between Woodchuck and
MuSkrat.

Muskrat.
A Philadelphia man saw a furious
fight between woodchuck and musk
rat on Choke Creek a few days ago. Mr..
Bond was walking toward the creek, on
the opposite side Of which he saw a
woodchuck shaking it's thirst near pool
under leaning yellow birch tree. The
woodchuck became alarmed at his APP
proach, gave a whistle and started on a
lively canter for it's burrow, few rods
up the bank At the same instant a
monster muSkrat, who had been nosing
around in the grass and weeds near the
woodchuck's hole, made dash for the
pool under the leaning birch. The
startled animals ran into one another in
their haste to reach their respective
abiding place, and the collision instantly
made them forget all fear, caused them TO
become as angry as hornets and set them
to fighting like bulldogs. Each animal,
Mr.. Bond said, seemed to think that
the other was to blame for running
against it, and instead of apologizing
and trying to pass one another, they
began to bite and scratch, bristle and
.uueal angrilv and roll and tumble in
the grass, as though they were bound to
kill one another. The muskrat kept
working the woodchuck toward the
creek, the blood and fur flew, AMI ct
length the woodchuck broke away,
cried enough and went limping toward
his burrow. 1t hadn't taken five steps
before the pugnacious muskrat collared
it and made it fight. The woodchuck
sailed into the big rat with renewed
vigor, but the latter knew it's business,
and in less than three minutes it caught
the woodchuck by the throat and
dragged it over the bank into the pool.
The fighting animals churned the water
into foam, but the muskrat held the

Sweet Potato DAYS.

Travellers southwark reach the can

Virginia or northern North Carolina,
and when a Northerner has once been
persuaded to taste this product of negro
culinary skill he usually becomes fond
of it. The potatoes are first boiled, and
then, having been sliced, are fried, with
the addition of considerable sugar.
When properly cooked the slices are
almost like translucent amber The

found that considerable blacksmithing

Harbor Master Jelich returned yesterday
from Tacoma where he made inquiries
about the buoys there and he says tho i've
buoys in Tacoma harbor were placed there
by . government steamer. that these
steamers are not supposed by the govern
ment to get any pay for this work, but that
in Tacoma $50 in cash was paid to tho
officers Of the steamer doing the work,
who we're also given . banquet.
There has been considerable talk along
the water front about the proposition to
secure the Manxanita to place the buoys.
and several captains and steamboat own
ers openly express their disgust at the
idea Of paying money to United States
officers for what could be done just IS we'll
by men right here at home, who would
spend the money in Seattle. Capt. L. A.
Dyer made an offer yesterday to Mr.. Van
Brocklin to place the three buoys for $i75.
and TO guarantee . good job. He says the
anchor chain to each buoy should he
about three times the depth Of the water.
The city has procured 2ao fathoms of
chain for the three buoys. and Capt. Dyer
thinks that two buoys should b anchored
with seventy-five iathoms each, and the
third with ninety fathoms.

A GLORIOUS FOURTH.
Great Northern Celebration to
Be on Independence Day.
WILL HAVE MANY NEW FEATURES
I've Days - De Devoted t. Entertain
meat Of Waters Aece.dias -
The Original Plan.

The completion Of the Great Northern
road and the Fourth Of July viii be ceie-
brated in Seattle this year with the grand
est demonstration In the history Of the
Northwest. This conclusion vas arrived
At last evening by the executive commit
tee in charge Of the celebration.
The committee met at the Merchants
and Manufactures Exchange and adopted
their arrangements to the change in the
programme made necessary by the post
ponement Of President James J. Hills ar
rival With his party Of eastern capitalists.
The original programme had embraced
two days celebration, the first day being
devoted exclusively to the reception and
entertainment of Mr.. Hill and his
guests. the second day to partake
Of the character of popular
celebration Of the completion Of the Great
Northern road to Puget sound. In view
OF the fact that Mr.. Hill had been able to
name no definite date when he would ar
rive here. il was unanimously determined
70 have the popular part Of the celebration
occur on the Fourth of July. The inten-
ton has always been to combine the re-
joicing over the completion OF tho Great
Northern and Fourth Of July
ceieDration in one grand popular
demonstration. The committee thought
that TO carry out the programme
on the Fourth Of July would enable every
one to participate in the event and add
largely to the number Of visitors from out
side points. The invitations have already
been sent out. the date not being defin.
itely named, and large posters have also
ham AtufPShufAA hA inf hns~
announce the date OF the celebration later.
The date Is now named as July 4, when
the full programme will be carried out. 1t
il also expected that . large excursion
from Victoria will come to this city on
that day.
L. d. Ross submitted detailed report
Of the donations already made to the ceIe-
bration, and Of the work done on the min.
eral palace in Pioneer place, the report
showing what part Of the work was do
mated and what part paid for. 1t was
found that the expenses Of the celebration
Is now estimated would Approximate
81 900. and from reports submitted by the
finance committee this amount will be
forthcoming.
The committee on transportation Was
instructed to make the necessary arrange
ments for reduced rates for excursionista.
DR.. Sweeney suggested that the New
England feature OF "Antiques and Hor-
ribles" b added to the programme and
prizes awarded to the most horrible, but
the suggestion did not meet with general
favor. 1t Is thought that the doctor had
the gentlemen who recently served him .
shabby trick in mind when he made the
suggestion.
