THERE are said to be twenty-four
varieties of edible fish found in the salt
waters of Puget Sound, as follows
Anchovy, tom, ling, black and red cod,
gray and white halibut, eels, founders
herring, black and white perch
salmon, seven varieties, named IN the
order in which they run-silver, hook
bill, dog, steelhead, spring or tyee
sockeye and humpback-sturgeon
smelt, sand fish, sole and trout. All
OF these, except the halibut, are found
in Bellingham bay. In addition there
are dog fish, rat fish and sharks, each
of which has some commercial value
and CLAIMS. crabs, oysters, and shrimps.
All of the varieties of salmon mention
ed except the sockeye spawn in the
Nooksack river. The sockeye seems
to be entirely native to the Frazer
river. There were approximately 2OO,-
600 salmon caught at and near the
mouth of the Nooksack river during
the season of 1895.

statistics throw glow of light upor
It's promises to assist its its members
and'those dependent upon them when
overtaken with sickness or distress
From 1880 to December 81 1894, the
lodges extended pecuniary relief to
l,9O2,5 members and 216,17S de-
pendent families and buried 184, 1894 de-
ceased brethern, and for these purpo-
ses paid muni6cent sum amounting
in aggregate to $67 1928, ,69O17. These
figures eloquently attest the fidelity of
the order to its members; of it's obli-
cations to faithfully obey that COM
mand which enjoins upon its votaries
the duty OF visiting the sick and edu-
eating the orphan. 1t is not so much, /,
merely, as that of payment of sick
and funeral benefits from treasures of
the various lodges as it is the duty of
paying and deciding who are entitled
to receive same. The satisfies show
that during the year 1894 benefits for
fully $4,000 weeks sickness we're
paid by the lodges and encampments
located in the United States and in
the various provinces in the British
possessions. This involved visitations
to the sick and disabled by no less
than 1886, ,270 members of the various
relief committees, there being at least
three On each committee. Beyond all
this, and its other duties to its mem
bers, the records show that the order
has always promptly and literally re-
sponded to every appeal sent out for
the relief of communities suffering
from fire, famine or plague.
The Odd Fellows in this countr
were the pioneers among secret frater-
mites in the founding and mainten-
ance of homes for the care of their
aged and INDECENT brethern and wild
ows and orphans of deceased members
OF the order. The first of this char
acter, was instituted at Meadville,
Crawford county, Pa, in 1874, since
which time institutions of similar
character, under the same auspices,
have sprung into existence in various
parts of the land. The example thus
set by that fraternity, whose symbolic
character is known by the three links
has been followed by several other
secret organizations. From this it is
to be inferred that in due course of
time such institutions will be founded
wherever the influences of Odd Eel
lowship and its co-fraternities, engaged
in the same works of charity, extend.
By their fruits We shall know them
said the Master. Hence it is that
such work of benevolence and charity,
as the principal secret fraternities are
now engaged in, have caused the pre-
JUDGES which formerly existed against
them to disappear and secure for
them the appreciation of all classes
that are influenced by pure, unbias-
ed spirit of phiianthropy.-Philadel-
phia Ledger.

If it required an annual outlay OF
$4,000 to insure a family against any
serious consequences from an attack
of bowel complaint during the year
there are many who would feel it their
duty to pay it; that they could not
afford to risk their lives, and those OF
their family for such an amount.
Any one can get this insurance for %
cents, that being the price of bottle
of Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy. In almost every
neighborhood some one has died from
all attack of bowel complaint before
medicine could be procured or ply
sician summoned. One or two doses
of this remedy will cure any ordinary
case. 1t never fails. Can you afford
to take the risk for so small an amount?

These figures show All increase of
yield in 1894 over that of 1893 of $4,-
366.9O gold, and decrease of $I61,-
V4.46 silver, a total decrease OF $751;
6O7.56.
| This decrease, as will be noticed, is
entirely in the silver product. In
common with other regions
where silver mining is carried on,
the mining districts of Wash
ington languished during 1894
as many properties were closed entire
ly, finding it impossible to work at
profit. Prospecting was discouraged
to certain extent as many miners
left for regions where more gold min
ing was going on.
Returns were received from 10 coun-
ties in 1894, as against 8 counties in
1893, as follows: Franklin county
with yield of $4,000 from mines at
Pasco, was not represented in the pre-
vlous report; Kittitas county, with a
yield of 81 ,594 in 1898, shows returns
for 1894 of $4,000; in Lincoln county
the small yield is increased by about
I'll 600; in Okanogan county there is
upward of $4,000 loss in silver pro-
duct, and gain of about $4,000 in
gold product; in Skagit county the
yield is practically the same as. the
previous year; in Snohomish county
the yield for 1894 Is $4,000 as
compared with $4,000 the previous
year; Spokane county, which showed a
yield of $4,000 silver in 1893, made
no returns this year; Stevens county
shows large falling off. Its yield in
in 1913 was $28,727.77 gold and $117,-
1885 silver, while in 1894 the returns
are $3,7O0 gold and $500 silver.
Walla Walla county did not appear
in the returns of 1898, and gives less
than ST. 900 gold this year; Whatcom
county, returns $31 300 gold for 1894,
while the yield was only 81 500 in 1898
Whitman county, which returned
$11 ,O2O in 1893, shows yield for 1894
of but $6,6l96O.
New capital hes not sought invest
ment in the mines of Washington to
any extent during the past year, and
several OF the larger mining enter
prises have been non productive,
mainly owing to the continued low
price of silver-Trade Register.

cures, though it affords speedy relief,
and will, IL given reasonable trial.
such as any standard remedy deserves,
root out the maladies to which it is
adapted. In emergencies arising in
families. it is particularly serviceable,
and it is esteemed throughout the land
as a medicine of comprehensive uses,

unobjectionable flavor. 1t has risen
to popularity by purely legitimate
means. and only well substantiated
facts are alleged in regard to it. Use 1t

CHINESE AMBASSADOR.

Washington. August 1s.-President
Cleveland has officially indicated that
Earl Ii Hung Chang will be the guest
of the nation during his forthcoming
visit to this country. and General Rug
giles, stationed at Governors Island,
has been designated TO take charge
of the details of the reception. The
Chinese minister returned from New
York today after seeing General Rug
giles and ex-Secretary Foster. Thus far
it is settled only that the presidents
reception of Ii will occur in New York.
AS a result there is some doubt wheth-
er the Chinese ambassador will visit
Washington at all
The proposed visit of Earl Ii to Bos-
ton has been abandoned. although the
present plan is to extend the stay in
New york because of the presidents
presence there, and shorten it else
where.

THE BIKE PARADE
Grand Turnout by All of the Wheels
in the City.
0ne OF the Most Beautiful Events of Re-
gatta keek-Aiss Maud Stockton
aud o. Small Min.

Promptly at 7;SO last evening. the
bicycle parade formed at the cyclery
and wheeled through the city over the
course laid down. After the regular
line of march was finished, number
of new courses were made and the
jolly wheelers circulated up and down
the streets during the greater part Of
the evening
The procession was headed by the
tandem, which was very handsomely
decorated. and one OF the most con-
spicuous wheels in the procession. The
ladies Immediately followed the tan
dem, and the rest of the procession
was made up of men and boys on
wheels of every description most fan
tastically decorated. To say that the
display was a brilliant one, and the
most successful Of the kind ever seen
in the city. scarcely expresses the
truth. To give detailed description
OF each wheel would be impossible.
Many OF the designs were odd and
many OF them were most beautiful.
Chinese lanterns, umbrellas. banners,
of every size and description, made
the swiftly passing procession one long
streak Of light, color and fantastic
shapes. Cow bells, fire gongs calliopes
and other devices, furnished the neces-
sary noise.
Mr.. o. Small, of the can factory, was
the winner Of the gentlemens prize,
and Miss Maud Stockton carried off
the lady's pennant, 1t is safe to say
that at the next regatta the cyclists
will be called upon to take a prominent
part.

IN MENIORIAM.

The sad intelligence has just reached
the city Of the death of Charles E..
Young. on the Sth inst, in Sterling,
Colorado, where he went in search of
health about six years since. Charlie
was brought up in the vicinity of As
toria, on the John Days. and his moth
er and brothers and sisters are resi-
dents of this county. He had a large
circle of friends and acquaintances in
this city who will deply mourn his un-
timely death. In the early years Of
his manhood Charlie was known as a
brave, energetic and industrious young
man whose life was above reproach.
He settled down in Sterling, Colora-
do, about four years since. He mar
ried a most estimable young lady there
who was a devoted and tender wife to
him and for whom the sincere sympa-
thy of this community is manifest in
the hours Of her profuond sorrow.
