Tomorrow is Arbor day, if you can't
set out a tree in the sawdust street, plant
a flower or two in box; do something
t. brighten your surroundings for that is
the true import of the observance of
Arbor day. The public schools of Aber-
deem will observe the day with appropri-
ate exercises.
Demorest's Magazine for May contains
nearly POO graphic illustrations, and
there is not dull page in it. "McKin-
ley's Administration, Told by the Cam
era," is alone well worth the price OF the
Magazine, the photographs wildly de-
pictlng the whole pageant, and needing
no verbal description.
A new time table went in effect on the
Northern Pacific railroad last Sunday,
which is very satisfactory to the COM
pany's Grays Harbor patrons. The pas
senger train going east starts at 10 AS
a. M, and for the west at 5p. M. The
mails close thirty minutes before the
leaving time of the train.
Clayton Boyce left yesterday for the
auriferous fields OF Alaska to dig out
fortune. He has been a resident OF
Aberdeen for the last ten years, and has
made many friends who, although re-
GREETING his departure, wish him much
prosperity and hope he will return with
his pockets full Of "dust."
The Aberdeen Athletic Club have de.
cided to offer gold medal as prize in
a new bowling tournament, to commence
soon, the winner OF the medal only being
allowed to hold it as long as he can do
SO against competing members in the fu-
ture. The scores in the tournament Just
closed will be the basis for handicap.
The city council held special meeting
on Monday night to devise means to
make needed repairs on the Heron street
bridge. The difficulty was overcome,

two weeks to do the work, during which
time ferry will be run across the Wish
kah river.
The schooner Sailor Boy, Capt. Peter
son, is at the West and Slade mill re-
ceiving cargo OF lumber for San Fran
cisco. The captain says the report that
his vessel went ashore on the south
coast Of California was mistake, but
that small craft OF the same name,
under command of a captain named
Peterson, did 60 ashore last winter on
that coast.
Mr.. and Mrs. N. w. Bush returned
last Saturday from attendance upon the
Grand Lodge A. o. U. w. and Degree of
Honor, which met in Seattle last week.
Mrs. Bush, as grand chief Of honor, pre-
sided over the latter, and the Post-Intel-
ligencer with the intention of paving her
a merited compliment printed portrait
OF her in Filday's issue. Really, though,
it would seem that she had cause for
libel suit against that paper ON account
of the miserable cut which was supposed
to represent her.
New style ladies shoes just received at
Jeff's.
Rev. r. u. Pettibone, OF Hoquiam,
who was so seriously injured last Thurs
day, still lies in an unconscious condi
ton at the Hoquiam hospital, with but
little hopes Of recovery, although he
may remain in his present condition for
some time. The accident by which he
was injured was peculiar one, he being
thrown from his bicycle over the railing
into the Fry creek between Aberdeen
and Hoquam. He sustained severe in
juries to his head, and the right side is
entirely paralyzed.

fectionery at Hilton Bros.
Oliver Pike, whose strange disappear
ance from the stale insane asylum a
little more than year ago, created such
a sensation, has written to Capt S. C.
Mitchell in regard to his property inter-
ests here. He writes under an assumed
name and says he can not yet reveal the
reason for his disappearance and change
Of name. He was supposed to have
been murdered, and when body was
found in trunk bought at all unclaimed
package sale in Chicago, it was posi-
lively identified by an uncle and taken
to Ohio and buried in the family plot by
relatives. Now after a years
silence, his relatives discover that their !
grief has been in vain. The lost relative
is much alive and living in Redands,
California. Pike was a resident of this
city and Cosmopolis in 1890 and 1891.
