SUNDAYS PICNIC.

1t was happy party which boarded
the Str. Buckeye, for an excursion to
the oucia islands, last Sunday.
There were small people and large
people, young people and old people,
men with their families and boys with
their sweethearts, all bent on having a
good time. Well filled lunch baskets
were placed on bourd, with a solicitit-
Gus care, that was amusing to behold.
The trim little streamer left the wharf
at a quarter of ten and anchored in
McLaughlin's bay little after noon.
The party landed near Mr.. McLaugh-
Inns house, and dinner was spread on
the grass under some nice shade trees
near the beach.
After dinner several hours were spent
roaming around the beach looking for
curios, for which these islands have
been claimed famous. But the most
"curlous" thing found was the fact that
the party could find nothing curious
enough to be worth bringing home.
About half-past four, i'll the evening,
the merry party gathered on board,
the anchor weighed and the steamer
started for home. The evening was
fine and the water smooth and the trip
home was very pleasant one. A stop
was made at Olga, to land some pas
sengers, and at Newhall a stop of fifteen
minutes was made and number of the
passengers awaited themselves of the
opportunity to inspect the sawmill al d
the wonderful waterpower at this place.
The steamer arrived at Friday Har
board tired, but glad that they had
been of the party.

1T RAINED CATS.

In most respects Captain Oliver, Of
the U. S. Mail Boat, Thompson, is a
level headed sensible man, but on the
subject of cats he is all object for the
kind consideration on the part Of those
who are nearest and dearest to him, in
fact, an inordinate and unquenchable
love for cats is Captain divers besett-
ing weakness. Only a few days ago he
became infatuated with certain species
of the feline family, owned by our hon
ored fellow citizen, Joseph Sweeney.
So enthusiastic did the usually sensi-
BILE and debonair captain become over
the sight of one Of these long haired
members of "catalogy" that he en-
ployed the language of Richard the
Third and Justify shouted "My king
dom for cat.n Mr.. Sweeney is not a
man to turn great big deaf ear to the
earnest pleadings of any man, and he
said to himself, Captain Oliver shall
have cats galore, even if it costs me
four dollars per capita, to supply them"
The next day came as did also the
cats. When the Str. Thompson ar
rived at Friday Harbor q sack Of cats,
labeled captain Oliver, handled with
care" was sent aboard. The delight
of the captain knew no bounds. He
called up all hands and treated them,
the prevailing toast being captain,
here is to the health of you and your
blue blooded cats" After ali hands
had been sumptuously treated, Cap
tain Oliver opened the sack to inspect
his newly acquired treasure X
Here we draw the curtain. The sack
contained one old moth-eaten Maria
cat, two hilarious looking Thomas cats
and four measly kittens, all of the ordi-
nary barnyard breed.
Captain Oliver is still on the boat but
he wears far-away, dim and distant
look, especially when in Friday Harbor.
The faintest ''mew" of cat now drives
him to Mysteries, while the boat saves
from $1.OO to $3.50 per day by keeping
bottle of 'cat-sup" in front of him at
the table.

THEY ARE COMING TO SAN JUAN.

The evergreen state of Washington is
attracting increasing attention in the
East; from the tropical CLINE of Mexico
to the frozen region of Canada, the
picturesque archipelago of San Juan
has been a topic of conversation. Our
delightful and invigorating climate has
inspired new hopes in nearly every
soul, of all who have CHANGED to inhale
our soothing air.
We take pleasure in publishing a
letter, received by Thos. 0. Steine,
from his cousin in S. Dakota:
Sumner S. Dakota.
July 18th, 1894.
Thomas 0. Steine,
Waldron, Wash.
DEAR FRIEND
Your long expected letter came
at last We have all been anxious to
hear from you, as we are vitality inter
ested in Washington. We look at that
state as our future hope and abode. 1t
must be pleasant on those islands,
where it is never too cold nor too warm.
The pure sea breeze must he healthy.
I think it would be a good place for
father. You know his health is not
very good. This climate does not seem
to agree with him. 1t is too cold in the
winter and too warm in the summer.
It has been awfully warm here this
summer, and the prospect for crop is
poor. We seeded in over four hundred
acres last spring with wheat and oats,
but the outlook is that not more than
half of it will be harvested. We are
getting entirely disguised with the I'M
certainty of crops here, and shall sell
out at the first opportunity and go to
Washington and start into fruit raising,
for which, / understand those islands
are well adapted. Please let us know
about the various prices of land in your
county? 1t may be shall take a trip
to Washington this fall, when we get
through with our fall work.
Hoping to hear from you soon, |
remain, your cousin and collegemate,
THOLLAvE STEINE.

ment.

ing a roll of blankets along, comfortable
quarters can be fixed up. The good
citizens of the island will furnish more

EAST SOUND NEWS ITEMS.

The mail steamer now comes direct
from Orcas to East Sound instead OF
turning off to Olga and Newhall as
ordered by Department at commence
ment of contract, which gives us our
mails more than an hour earlier.
Charles Armstrong writes to friends
here that he has an idea of trying to
buy farm up in British Columbia
near where he has been mining, and
wants them to come and take look.
Orcas island is hard to beat, and
American laws are better than English,
even if we do have, just now, a sugar
coated senate. American indepen-
dence will assert itself and times must
soon grow better. Our winters are long
and cold enough without going further
north, besides there are myriads of flies
and mosquitoes up there and no CLAIMS.
My squib, last week, in reference to
the formation of Republican club
over here, stirred up small hornets
nest. If the belligerent would-be's are
so easily stirred up, what fun the boys
will have before election.
Judge John r. Winn and family,
spent several days, last week, resting at
East Sound house.
A couple of yonng ladies borrowed
an old gray horse and buggy, to take
short ride, one day last week. After
proceeding about a mile toward the
home of the horse, an attempt was
made to turn him round to go the
opposite direction, at which he rebelled
by upsetting the buggy, catching one
of the occupants underneath and pin
ming her fast to the ground, at which
the other became greatly frightened
and called Justify for help. Desired
help soon came, released the unfortu-
nate one and Strengthened things up.
The old horse leisurely trudged back to
the place from whence he had been
borrowed, laughing in his sleeve, no
doubt, at the trick he had played them.
No damage done.
Such swarms of mosquitoes were
never seen nor felt before in this vicil-
ity. Speculation as to where they come
from centers generally at Swinomish
Not hn lin
ing them atloat on the water from that
and other mainland swamps, the result
Of the late overflow of mountain
streams. North Beach is fearfully in
tested with them just now.
RObt. Killing, postmaster, now mOws
hay from clover seed sown this spring;
stalks of clover are II to Is inches long
and thick on the ground.
Episcopal Bishop Barker made the
connection Sunday, all right, reaching
East Sound about half-past eight, in
the evening. A large turnout greeted
him both Sunday and Monday evening
were short, after which considerable
time was taken up in discussion of
church matters, both public and pri-
vate, ending in grand reception ten
dered the distinguished visitors by the
people of East Sound generally. The
Bishop was accompanied by DR.. Chas.
McCutcheon, surgeon in charge of
the Fanny Paddock Hospital, at
Tacoma. The reception took place at
the residence of G. H. Showers, who
occupies the Gray residence. A re-
adjustment of missionary work among
these islands was promised. Favorable
impressions were made on both sides.
Our very popular Missionary pastor,
Rev. w. j. Dixon, assisted in church
and at reception.
