Dea II OF an Estimable Woman,

Elizabeth, wife of VIM. Cullen, died
at their home on Eastside, Tuesday
morning, about four O'Clock. About
week ago, she was affected with a
shock Of paralysis, from, which she
did not recover. Mrs. Cullen was a
native of New York, 81 years of age.
She came westward early in the Cos,
settling for time in Nevada, where
her husband engaged in mining. They
came to this State in 1865, and have
ever since resided in Olympia. Deceased
was an exemplary woman, and her
death is a shock to a large circle of
friends to whom she was endeared by
many acts of kindness. She leaves a
husband and two daughters Essie and
Cassie (Mrs. Shazer) to mourn the loss
of a dutiful wife and loving mother.
The funeral rites took place yesterday
at the family residence, Rev. DIR.
Diven officiating.

A single sentence in private letter

A single sentence in a private letter
received by a citizen of Olympia from
Cleveland, Ohio. tells the story of the
cold weather in that and other East
crn cities: The mercury stands &C
degrees below zero, where it has been
for the last four days. Hubby and

windows are battcned, leaving Httlo

Svante Johnson, the well known
fruit dealer of this city, died at St
Peters hospital Saturday morning
from a complication of disorders. He
had been quite ill for some time
past and about a fortnight ago an
operation was performed, since which
time he gradually sank until death re.
lieved his sufferings. The funeral
services took place Sunday, at the
Catholic Church, and he was buried
by the local lodge of a. 0. U. W., of
which organization he was a member.
The STANDARD is not legal au-
thority, but it will stake its reputa-
ton on the humble assertion that our
Legislature is not proper place to
conduct the bribery investigation.
The Legislature is neither an execu-
tive nor judicial tribunal. After
spending about three weeks to elect a
Senator, it is now wrangling over the
question as to whether money was not,
after all, the great lever that manipu-
lated the fortunes of the Senatorial
election. The ebribery trial should 60
into the courts, where it belongs.
&c. Williams, better known as "Mc-
Ginty," now resident of Minneapolis,
writes letter to the STANDARD, in
which he bemoans the fate which took
him away from this city of classic
name; although he and wife are now
doing fairly well in the undertaking
business, that westward their hearts
are turning ever as they review in
memory the scenes of other days.
" McGinty" will be remembered as the
first stage manager of Olympia Thea
ter, while his wife often had charge of
the ticket window. Mrs. w. is the only
lady undertaken in Minneapolis, which
fact was deemed of sufficient impor-
tanee to make her the subject of illus
tration and biographical sketch in one
of the great papers of that city, few
months ago.

PEPARING TO EvACUATE.

weyIer's Forces VIII shortly Re-
turn to Spain.
WASHINGTON, April 16.-Accord-
ing to information received from
trustworthy sources here the with
drawal of at least part of the great
army Spain has maintained for several
years in the Island of Cuba, will begin
when the rainy season sets in, within
a few days.
The initial movement will be the
departure of 10000 Spanish troops
from Havana for Spain, and within
a short time 10000 troops, it is under
stood, will withdraw.
The Spanish insist positively that it
means only that little or nothing of
the instruction remains; that Go
mez has only about 80 or 100 followers,
and to watch these under the condi-
tons in which the campaign has been
necessarily conducted, few thousand
men will be quite as effective as the
$50, 900 men now in Cuba. The Cuban
contingent, on the other hand, insist
that Spanish financial resources are
exhausted and that troops are to be
Withdrawn because of lack of money to
keep them in service.

SUGAR FACTORS MEET.
Labor Commissioner Fitzgerald
Before Planters Association.

y half dozen or more gentlemen,
representing the sugar interests of Ha-
wall, met Mr.. Fitzgerald, Labor Com
missioner of the State of California,
in the rooms of the Hawaiian Plant
erS' Association yesterday afternoon.
Mr.. Fitzgerald was asked to give his
views on the labor situation, and stat
ed substantially what was published in
this paper yesterday as coming from
him. He went over the ground thor
oughly, and said, in response to a
question, that he would not send any
white men here until a department for
the purpose had been established. He
deprecated the idea of sending white
labor into the country without first
ascertaining something of their habits
and moral character. Thousands
would be willing to come. but it would
not do to send any that would be a
menace to the country.
The character of the men could be
investigated only by having man to
look after the. department. When
asked if he would be willing TO look af-
ter it in California, he said he could
not do so, as the duties of his office
required all of his attention, but he
would render all the assistance posi-
BILE by way of advice.
There will probably be another
meeting of the association before Mr..
Fitzgerald leaves for San Francisco.

City Psychologist Spencer reported
yesterday to the Health Office that he

Dr. Woods, the resident physician at

there is only one case which shows
any sign of even sore throat, and
that the children from whom cultures
were sent to the Health Office are up
and around and apparently in good
health The children have been iso-
lated from the others, and every effort
will be made to prevent the spread Of
diphtheria should it develop.
