An admirable rendition OF the
" Fast Mail" Lincoln J. Carriers great
scenic play, was given at Olympia
Theater last evening, before an audi
ence that was fair in numbers and en-
thusiastic in its expressions OF APP
prevail. The stage appliances were OF
high order and the company one of
the best on the road.
Frank CoOmhs and Chas. Bullock,
of the State militia, made a trip from
Seattle To this city, Wednesday, with
IL message from Capt. Frank f..
Adams of Co. G To Adjutant-Gcneral
Boutelle, to demonstrate the utility of
the bicycle as an aid to the military
service. They left Seattle at 4 ID A.
NJ. and arrived here at ; 10 T.. NJ. after
having lost an hour and thirty min
utes at Tacoma in delivering mes
sage to Capt. Howell. The cyclone
eter indicated II miles as the dis
lance travelled between Seattle and
this city. They left for home yester-
day morning and expected to make
the return trip in about the same
time,

Another Great Play.

Lincoln J. Carriers new play, The
Tornado" is said to be a novelty, in
every sense in which the word can APP
pertain to dramatic work. When
the curtain rises on the first act it re-
veals a handsome setting of rustic sur
roundings. 1t is at this moment that
Mr.. Carter starts in on his audience,
he goes right up to High G." and
stays there. The beauty of his first
act setting is but a plaything for the
mighty Tornado at the close of the
act. The old homestead, with is out
lying buildings, its grand old trees, its
fragrant shrubbery, all are swept away
before the awful wind which prevails.
The impressive grandeur Of this scene
cannot be described, can hardly be
imagined. In this tremendous climax
Mr.. Carter gave his admirers cause for
apprehension. They said, "he has
struck too high. he cannot hold up to
it: the interest must flag after such a
scene rs that" But when, in the Sec
ond act, the curtain-rise exposed the
full deck OF ship with every detail in
its makeup complete. the swaying
I with the motion OF the waves of the
entire scene, then came the order to
shorten sail and prepare for blow,
and then moment of expectancy and
the grandeur of the rigging scene was
before their eyes. Six old tars on the
yardarm of a mast furling monster
sail forty feet above the deck, the wind
cracking the canvas, the lightning
binding in its flashes. Another
moment OF calm and the audience find
themselves back on deck again only
to experience the great collision scene.
Two ocean steamers coming together
at full speed, and then the open sea
scene, with the waves running noun
tain high, tossing a man from crest to
crest a. though he were but a cork,
The curtain down, the lights up, and
the doubters are wondering what can
he have to follow" Then comes the
street scene in Chicago, the harbor al
night, showing all the familiar build
ings, the vast water front, the Randolph
street viaduct, ETC., quickly followed
by the dissecting room scene in a med
ical college, and another act OF novel
ties has passed. The next one is uE
to the standard, in a comedy excel
lence, and then the gorgeous autumn
nal beauty of the final act is shown
and with it ends play which, starting
in at " concert pitch" stays there, ant
keeps an audience with wonder il
their minds, amazement on thei
, faces, and their hands gripped on thu
! arms of their seats.

The Seattle Weather Bureau fur
nishes the STANDARD with the follow
ing summary of the weather and its
relation to crops during the season OF
1895:
The crop season OF 1895 opened very
auspiciously. The month of February
and fore part of March were dry and
warm, and favorable for the beginning
OF farm work March was cool during
the middle part, and wet near its
close. The ground seemed to he of
the right degree OF moisture, and rains,
though copious enough, were not ex-
cessive. Some blowing and seeding
were done in the open days of Febru-
airy and March, but i'll April the seed
ing in the eastern section seemed to
drag along, owing to cold and showery
weather. The closing week Of April
and first week of May we're warm and
sunny, and fine growing weeks. Grain,
grass, fruit and vegetables all pro-
crossed favorably. During the next
week there was u severe frost in the
eastern section, and light one in the
western section. Considerable fruit
was destroyed, and there was much
damage to winter and spring wheat by
the late frost in May. The last two
weeks of May were warm and favor
able, and followed by needed showers,
causing much grain to terminate that
otherwise would not have done 80.
Throughout June dry spell with
parching winds prevailed in the east
ern section, which was unfavorable to
grain. In the west there were few
gentle showers, and it was fine hayine
weather. The drouth was broken on
July 4th and 9Th by a heavy general
rain storm. Fine haying weather fol
lowed in the western section, which
was also favorable to the oat crop in
the Skagit river country, but a droutl
begun which was general over Wash
ington until the first week in Septem
Der, and which was considered unfav
orable to grain in Eastern Washing
ton, and to vegetables in the western
part. The weather in the harvest sea
son was very favorable for the pur
pose, though the very dense smoke
that prevailed was somewhat disagree
able.
Showers occurred during the mid
die weeks of September, and a warm
sunny period at its close. Though
dry September, the soil was left il
good condition for fall blowing. TIL
drought OF July and August is regard
ed as one Of the most severe and pro
longed that ever occurred in WASH
ingtOn.

and outraging the 10-yesr-old child of
]. w. Randolph, OF Alpha Prairie, last
July. Heitstumann is % years of age.
He was sentenced to Walla Walla for
a year from Colfax on a similar charge.
On the stand last week he related the
story of the outrage on the Randolph
girl to the jury, as if he considered it
an. achievement to be proud OF. When
the Judge sentenced him, Tuesday, he
listened to one OF the most severe lee
lures ever given a criminal in this
court, with Il careless smile on his face.
Ira Whitney, a crazy man, has been
having lots OF fun in his own way, by
frightening neighbor out of several
years growth, at the point Of his Win
chester rifle. 1t seems that he has
been acting queerly for some time, but
one day last week his alteration of
mind became more marked, and he
visited his neighbor James Sherrel,
who lives near Toledo, and proposed
to stay all night. During the night
Sherrell was awakened by the actions
of his guest who had dressed himself
! and built y fire. When accosted by
his host, he drew a bead" on him
with his rifle and told him to cover
his head with the bed clothes. The
crazy man sat by the fire till dawn
and then proceeded to cook breakfast.
| When it was done, he took up the
rifle aud ordered Sherrell to get out of
bed over the foot board, left foot first
He was then commanded to dress, and
invited to eat break fast. The host did
eat. After breakfast the guest took
his host out at the point of the Win
chester and proceeded to lay out the
work for the day, which was to consist
of carrying logs to the cabin. But
watching his chance when the guest
was in the cabin for minute, Sherrel
broke and ran for the woods. Like
the man that ran fourteen miles in
fifteen days, he never looked behind
him, until lie had put eight miles of
woods between himself and his cabin.
The crazy man followed, but lost the
trail and did not overtske him and he
arrived at Toledo about dusk, too
scared to tell his story. Justice Mahl
at once sent Deputy Sheriff Spangler
to bring the wild man down. Spang-
Ter left his blacksmith shop and start
ed out at once, but missed his man on
the way out. Sherrel had told the set
tiers all the way down of his adven-
ture, and when Whitney came along
he put them all through their cate
chism. From settler he learned
that Spangler was after him, so that
when Spangler returned home he
found his man waiting for him
Whitney seemed perfectly willing to
do as Spangler said, and was taken 10y
him to his own house, where he slept
all right and took breakfast mex
morning. The only evidence of insan
ity was rolling of the eyes when hi
engaged in conversation, and nervou
restletsness. Tuesday morning h
was taken before the judge and or
dered sent to SteilacOOm.
