A QUEER PARTNERSHIP LEASE.
Sign That Presents n Problem In
Degrees of Relationship.
From the New York Tribune

From the New York Tribune.
The names displayed on signs have been
the subject of many interesting stories.
but the point Of a sign story is usually
the name or the names connection with
the business. Thus. the changes have
been rung on such signs as Water, Deal
er In Ice;' Winters. Coal" Schneider.
Tailor "Schluckebier, SaIoonkeeper:'' "A
French, English Tailor 'schuster, Fash
ionable Shoemaker" 20. Farewell. IN
dertaker;' IN. o. Paine, Dentist" and
hundreds of equally fitting combinations
The signs which advertise the former
possessor of a place of business are be-
coming more numerous daily. Once upon
a time the son of the former owner was
the only person who made use of the
compound sign, and John Smiths Som
or John Smiths Sons" was not an I'M
usual sign.
A valuable addition to the list of queer
signs is the one which was recently placed
over the door of a little hardware shop
in Yorkville. 1t shows that the family
although il may be divided on the sub
Ject of the silver question or as to the
best bicycle tire, is a unit in its reverence
for the late owner Of the shop. The sign
reads.

CUT RATES ABOLISHED.
shippers Can No Longer Avan Them
selves of Panama Route.

Several OF the largest wholesale dealers
in Seattle have been taking advantage or
the low rates offered by the Columbia line
from the Atlantic seaboard by way or the
Panama railroad, preferring to pay e0-75
cents hundred on general merchandise
by that route rather than give the rail-
roads s.. 10-sl-5o for hauling the same class
OF freight. Such firms as Schwabacher
Bros, the Gordon Hardware Company,
Lowman & Hanford and other Seattle
firms which carry large stocks could well
afford TO wait for their goods forty days
by the Isthmus, instead Of only twenty
days by the northern railroads.
But this facility for slow and heavy ship
ments no longer exists. The war between
the Pacific Mall and the Panama road has
come to an end. and by one of those mys-
FERROUS commercial deals of which the
public can only surmise the particulars
the Columbia line IS withdrawn. AS tho
Pacific Mail is really but branch or the
Southern Pacific IL is easy to see that the
new arrangement was made in the interest
OF that road. The Pacific Mail boats, from
the Isthmus TO San Francisco. VIII not
care TO handle the freight even with rates
restored.

Repudiated the Bill.

George Anthony. a florist OF this city.
did not consider that he owed John c.
Vaughan. an Eastern scotsman, anything
for bill Of goods received two or three
years ago, but jury in Judge Eumes'
court thought otherwise yesterday and
found for Vaughan FL the sum OF 81 50.
The testimony showed that Anthony
bought a number Of rose bushes and other
goods from Naughan's company several
years ago and has never paid for them,
alleging that they were not worth any
thing, although ne did not deny havingare-
cetved them. On the stand yesterday he
said he thought he owed Vaughan about
s.. and denied point blank that the bill for
$50 had ever been presented TO him by
Attorney Arthur Griffin, who represented
vaughan. Griffin. however. took the stand
and said that he called on Anthony q short
time ago and presented him with the bill.
Anthony growing very angry and abusive.
He said he could not be mistaken in the
man The jury remained out only ten
minutes. when the verdict was rendered.
