TROUBLE IN A MIXED HOUSE.
POLICEMEN CALLED TO A HOUSE
OCCUPIED BY WHITE WIFE AND
COLORED HUSBAND.

Saturday night witnessed the culmi-
nation of a rather peculiar case. All
Summer a motley crowd has been in
habiting a small house on North Third
street, consisting of Shoemaker Jen-
nings, his wife and daughter, and his
brother-in-law. wife and two children.
The wife of the brother in-la.w IS
white, while the others are all colored.
The woman, with the children, has been
living in close confinement all Sum
mer, none of the trio ever having been
seen on the street. Thr neighbors were
first attracted to the case by seeing
young children's clothing hanging on
the clothes-line; and. as they knew
that the children were not Jennings,
by close watch, they discovered the
presence of a white inhabitant.
Last Sunday the neighbOrhoOd was
stirred by the arriavl of a handsome
carriage. which stopped ait the house,
out of which stepped an elderly, fine
looking man. After staying about an
hour he left. On Friday it was whisper
ed that changes were about to occur,
and everyone was on the qui-vive Ia
see the denouement.
Early in the evening one of the male
residents was seen to stagger into the
street with coat off and without hat
He went to the corner and returned
with Policeman Harrington.
Shortly afterward loud talking was
heard coming from the house. but the
policeman came away without making
any arrests. At 8 o'clock, a coupe
drove up, out Of which came a woman
It left soon after and returned at 10
when the woman came out, apparently
under the influence of liquor, and cried:
I'm going now, - you. goodbye"
The coupe was driven rapidly away
and things grew quiet for awhile. Neal
midnight, however it returned for the
Third time, but instead of stopping al
the house the driver turned sharply
around and drove into the school green
Here he lost himself and crashed int
trees, benches and the wall which
surrounds the Episcopal Cemetery. A
female came out and asked sCme ques-
tions as to the previous occupant Sew
eral unintelligible replies were made
and then, the driver having gotten him
self straightened out, drove rapidly
away.
This mysterious case Is attractins
widespread attention in the town anS
inquiries are already on foot to un
tangie the whole disgraceful affair.
The party came here three months
ago from DoylestOwn, Pa.

MEDICAL MEN FROM ALL OVER
THE WORLD IN POSSESSION OF
NEW CASTLE.
For time on Saturday evening New
Castle was in possession Of the most
distinguished body of men that has
been here in many years-the American
Public Health Protective Association.
This aggregation of 225 learned ply
sicians. business men and their hosts
and entertaining friends Of Philadel-
phia arrived at Delaware street wharf
having been down the river inspecting
the governments fumigating plant at
Reedy Island, and the entire United
States Hospital Service, the Pennsyl-
vania quarantine station at Marcus
Hook and the government batteries.
To bring the distinguished delegation
to New Castle three steamers were
brought into service-the United States
revenue cutter Hamilton. the lighthouse
tender Zizania and the Philadelphia ex-
cursion steamboat J. T. Smith. The lat
ter carried over $50 Of the party
The party included medical men of
prominence all over the world.
The association, whose tranactions
and deliberations during the past week
while in convention at Philadelphia
were Of national importance, only re-
mained in New Castle a short time. A
special train was telegraphed for and
arrived at Battery station about
O'Clock. The visitors filled four cars and
were taken through to Philadelphia
making a fast run en- route.
Before separating, the members of the
convention voted unanimously for an
act of Congress establishing a National
Department of Health, and at the ear
liest possible day. This procedure is
thought to have been hastened by the
recent outbreaks of fatal contagious
in various parts of the country.

Before cleaning carpets orrugs beat them
thoroughly on line chalk out all the
stains and dirty parts and well rub with
large house flannel dipped in pail OF
water, in which pint of OK gall has been
either left for a day to dissolve in cold
water or thrown into hot water and used
when lukewarm. To rinse off, add a little
liquid ammonia to tie clean water and rub
dry with towels or rough cloths. The exact
quantity of OK gall and the amount of rub
bling much depend, of course, on the size
and quality of the carpet, its dirt and deli
cate coloring. Ok gall is also sometimes
effectively combined with fuller's earth or
mixed with one-quarter of a pound of soft
soap to half a gallon of soft water. 1t is
important to have the boards of the table
or floor on which the cleaning process is
carried out thoroughly clean and to pre-
serve the damp carpet from any dust until
dry.

We have it on good authority that
Frank Thompson is coming back to
Wcstport in April There is no place

Rev. Dir. Thompson, OF Aberdeen, the
pioneer Presbyterian missionary of
southwestern, central and eastern Wash
ington, at present pastor OF Westport. in
conjunction with Aberdeen churches,
has been holding special religious SER
vices here during the past week. He
was assisted by Elder d. G. Bechtell, of
Morris. A number of persons expressed
their faith in Christ and will probably
in due time come into the church.
Nearly all the inhabitants of Westport
gathered at the Presbyterian church last
Friday night, the occasion being sur
prise on Elder George +. McKinstry.
III few we'll chosen words Rev. DR..
Thompson, of Aberdeen, stated the
reason for the gathering, and after few
songs by the church choir, Mr. McKin-
stry was presented with fine Bible by
the members Of the Bible class, of which
he is teacher, as token of their love
and respect and for his untiring efforts
and valuable services in the church. The
presentation was made in very happy
manner by Rev. DR.. Thompson, pastor
OF the church. Mr.. McKinstry was also
presented with nice cane by Mr.. Hap
tonstal, which was curious piece of
workmanship, skillfully carved by the
donor partly out of native wood and
partly out of timber taken from the hull
of the wrecked ship Nora Harkins, which
has been lying on the beach here for
several years. After these ceremonies the
lunch baskets, we'll filled with cake,
sandwiches and coffee, were brought
forth, and all enjoyed the feast and had
Il pleasant social time. This party was
given in honor of Mr.. McKinstry be-
cause he was about to leave US for his
home in Kansas, which he did on Mon
day, after visit of several months here
with his daughtcr-in-iaw, Mrs. Robert
Mckinstry, whose husband was we'll
known to many on the harbor.

Hay is rather a scarce article with us
this spring.
Some fine seed potatoes may be had of
our farmers.
Louis Hill is still engaged driving pack
team for Rod Murray.
This fine weather is Il reminder OF the
ordinary needs of orchards.
Nelson's team is making regular trips
now; ten hundred pounds is heavy
load for team.
\. J. Quintin, of Ocosta, Chehals
county agent for Bryans book, "The
First Battle" has been in our midst.
That book will be extensively read and
circulated.
Charley Wilson is moving his house
hold goods from the Darling ranch; and
the way he is fitting up might cause one
to think he was going to enter into Il
partnership with another darling.
There was great cry OF rejoicing N
our midst over the prospects of the pass
age by our state legislature of the obs
pensary Bill" The people begin to
realize that whiskey is the root Of much
OF the crime committed, and that whiskey
shops are headquarters Tor criminals.
While there is cry OF hard times
throughout the land, and want and
poverty is felt and seen on every hand,
the ginmill proprietors are ilourishing.
II is hoped this or some other wise liquor
legislation will drive some OF them from
their disreputable career and make them
earn an honest living. Honest bread
will no doubt lay heavy in their stomach,
but they will get used to it after a while,
or if it kills them twill be no loss.
The San Francisco Examiner discourses
quite freely on the bowers of the supreme
court of the United States, but it does
not enter largely into an analysis Of that
august body. These nine men have ex-
traordinary power, and are really the
arbiters OF the whole people, and yet the
people have no voice in eiecting them ;
they are appointed, and not always, as
it has appeared, for their ability and in
tegrity; any five Of them may at will, or
for consideration, disannul any law OF
our land after expensive and laborious
legislation by the will of the people, the
despotic power OF five men can set it
aside and all comes to naught. If it is
necessary to have a supreme court, why
not have it elected by popular vote?
At our literary the question arose as to
the benefit OF machinery. Both sides
were well championed and some sharp
thrusts were made. For the machinery,
it was claimed that it saved labor, that
with it more work was done and more
wealth produced, that it lightcned the
burdens OF both men and women and
that machinery was made for men. y
On the other side, it was claimed that
machinery was detrimental, as it dis
placed thousands OF workingmen. il
cheapened labor, sustained trusts, com
bines and bonanza farming; since the
advent Of machinery young men no more
thought OF learning trades, and that il
allowed the rich manufacturer TO Cypress
the poor and to speculate on the poverty
OF the people; that machinery was made
for man and not for men, therefore many
suffered because one accumulated wealth.
The latter side had decided advantage
in the argument and the decision was 50
rendered

So far as we have been able to learn
the only 10y scaling measure before the
legislature is one providing for govern
ment scaler who shall, upon request,
scale logs and issue a certificate as to the
amount. A measure OF this kind will
not benefit the logger. A law to be
effective must require the scaling of
every log before it can be sold. Every
mill will then be compelled to pay tor
the full number OF feet in the log. Even
though the price per thousand feet might
be less, yet there would be the benefit to
the mills OF all being compelled through
competition to pay the same price, and
no cause for complaint on the part OF the
logger of an unfair scale. An optional
law will be avoided by the mills, and
therefore no law at all.

DR.. Arendt, the great German econo-
mist, has discovered that German bank
ers who are interested in the maintenance
OF the gold standard were assessed to raise
money to contribute to the Mckinley cam
pagn fund. The assessment was so large
that the Frankfort bankers complained to
members of the Richstag about it. Ber-
lin bankers have also confessed that they
contributed to the American gold stand
ard campaign fund to be used to assist in
the election OF Mckinley as president.
Another significant fact was discovered
This money was paid through English

The State Superintendent OF Public in
struction. +. J. Browne, in reply to COM
munication from Prof. Chamberlain, Of
iioquiam, gives it as his opinion that the
interest coupons should not be considered
as part Of the liabilities of the district
beyond the interest for the coming year;
and that it is but fair to presume
that bondholder would be satisfied
to settle with any school district
in the state for the face of the bond
plus the interest to the date of set
Element, even though the contract in the
bond might not compel him to do SO.
He adds that "it is evident to all who
look at the statistics of the school dis
tricts Of the state, that such course
would place most OF the districts beyond
the possibility OF maintaining schools
and would be inconsistent with the para
mount right Of the state to make ample
provision for the education OF all children
within its borders" This is in line with
the position taken by the HERALD upon
the question few weeks ago.
