The Play OF tho Season.

Frank Lane heads a bright COM
pany from Hoyt's Theater, New York,
and will be seen at Olympia Theater,
Wednesday evening, in Chas. H.
Hoyt's great comedy, GA Trip to
Chinatown" The excellent reputa-
ton this play enjoys, both in this
country and in Australia, and the fact
that Hoyt & Mckee never allow it to
be presented only in the best manner
and by the very best people, is a guar.
antee of a good performance and
should insure a full house. Mr.. Hoyt
is one of the most prolific contributors
to the farce comedy stage, and is ex.
ceedingly versatile in amusing situa-
ton, and in the creation of charac-
tiers, the counterparts of which are
continually met in everyday life.
His " A Trip to Chinatown" makes no
pretense to what it does not possess,
but is certainly all that it is designed
to be-a string of rich fun from the
rise to the fall of the curtain. A
lot of young people start out on lark,
chaperoned by devilish widow, "Mrs.
Guyer," and wind up at a masquerade
ball. An eccentric character, "Wel.
land Strong" who inagines that he is
a dying man, manages to join the
party, and they try in vain to shake
him. They are also eluding an old
bachelor, "Ben Gay" uncle and guard
ian to one of the girls in the party,
who is slowly trying to carry on a
filtration with the pretty widow, but is
cut out by Strong. Upon this basis of
story, the play is built up of ludi-
crous situations, just suggestive
enough to be spicy but not bold
enough to be wicked, and lot of
ingenious specialties are woven in
which give it delightful variety.
The people who surround Mr.. Lane
and dance and romp and sing through
the chain of funny situations are all
clever, and were each selected with
special adaptability to their respective

THE FORD ScANDAL.-The singular
spectacle is presented in Seattle of an
orthodox preacher attempting to
prove a fifteen-year-old child a
strumpet, to escape punishment for
alleged seduction or rape. The
Methodist conference very properly
expelled Rev. w. T. Ford, after full
investigation, for the criminality
charged. The tender years of the
victim precludes the idea that he has
been made the sport of an unprinci-
pied adventures. View the matter
from any standpoint, the position of
the reverend gentleman seems to be
indefensible. If he is not guilty, the
tearing into shreds the character of a
child seems to be no less reprehensible
than murder, and if he is guilty, his
debauching of one so young, under
any circumstances is so widely apart
from his sacred profession as to stigma
tie him as villain wearing the livery
of heaven to serve the devil in.

How He " Worked, His Acc,oeucv.

"Uncle Bill" who manipulates the
backing brush in front OF an uptown
saloon at rare opportunities. is a
character in his way and has keen
optic always peeled for the main
chance. He can size up men, by
seeming intuition at their exact
weight and stature. He seldom
misses in his measure, and invariably
manages to be successful in anv en-
leavor he may undertake to coax I'M
awaiting dimes from close pockets.
He tackled his accidency the other
day, with his usual success. The
Governor, be it known, does not patron
ize the artist of the brush, wearing his
"patent-leathers" on all occasions of
dress parade, and so Uncle Bill" was
at his wits end to discover some
method for tapping" the executive
pocket, as they call it in solo.
He hit upon plan. Knowing the
Governors exalted opinion OF himself
he concluded to use it to his advant-
age. Awaiting an opportunity when
his accidency was passing his hole in
the WALL" Bill stepped briskly forth
and dotiing his hat with that courtly
grace for which he is so noted and
with n refulgent smile that twinkled
over the housetops, said: Mawnin',
sab, may it please YOU honnah!"
The execution was evidently nom
plused. He stopped for moment,
viewed the statuesque figure in black
posed at his last move of his cercmon.
ious bow, and slowly drawing from his
pocket the "price of shine" dropped
it into Uncle Bills outstretched palm
and passed on.
Had he had eyes in the back of his
head he would have observed sly
twinkle in old Bills eye as he hobbled
his way into the saloon to take drink
solus, the coin not being large enough
to indulge in a general treat.

Mono Bus Ayers at the Worlds Fair

There was only one blood purifier
admitted at the Worlds Fair, Chicago.
1t was Ayers Sarsaparilla. All others
meet the requirements of the Fair Com
missioners. Ayers Sarsaparilla only
was accorded the honor of an entry, be-
cause it did meet those require
ments. In other words, the Worlds
Fair authorities found Ayers Sarsapar-
lila to be an honest, scientific prepara-
ton, the only one of its kind they could
endorse. That was good testimony that
Ayers Sarsaparilla is the best blood
purifier made. Furthermore, hundreds
of physicians say it is, thousands Of
druggists say it is, millions of patients
say it is. Take it, ailing friend, and you
will say it is.

A Valiant knight.

If Olympia had few more energetic
rustlers like J. r. Chaplin, she would
now be in a position to take her place
in the advance guard of progress that
has begun its march. His words be-
fore the Board of Trade Wednesday
evening, sounded as inspiring as the
utterances of five years ago, when
Everything was lovely
And the goose hung high"
Mr.. Chaplin has been East the past
-four years engaged in promoting his
scheme for Congregational Univer-
sity in the college grounds on West
side. During all of that time, when
the mercury of the business thermom-
eter had crawled into it's bulb, Mr.. c..
was engaged in talking, writing and
rustling for his favorite scheme, with
the result that he is now enabled to
report satisfactory progress and fair
hope for realization of his cherished
project. He does not ask for that
which is hard to electromagnetic
goodwill and cooperation, the "pray-
ers," as it were, of those who will be
benefited. His plan of operations are
based largely upon the advantages of
travel in acquiring an education and
the benefits to be derived from having
a leading institution of the Congrega-
tional system of education located in
the leading State of the Northwest,
endowed so richly with natural re-
sources. During the hard times he
has brought many students to the
coast to enter the established institu-
tions of learning, all of whom would
have come to the one here had it been
established. There should not be any
delay in affording our enterprising
missionary all the credentials and sup
port we can give, which can be safely
done by q community which knows
him so well, and sending him forth
with fervent blessing on his philan-
thropic mission.

Sites Required for Industrial En-

Board of Trade meeting Wednesday
night demonstrated that business en-
terprises will be stumbling over each
other for location on Jefferson street,
if the track of the Eastside Railway
Co. is extended so as to give traffic
connections. Mr.. Russell, owner of a
mill at Woodland was present and
stated that he would move his business
to this city if the contemplated i'm
provement, which can be made at an
expense of $500, could be ensured.
Under this understanding, the solicit
ing committee for securing subscrip-
lions, of which Mr.. Springer is chair
man, was continued, and the commit
tee to confer with the railroad and
other parties interested for further aid,
headed by Mr.. Scobey, was requested
to move forward with accelerated
speed.

an old lady of seventy, cruel and
murderous blow on the head with a
tough fir stick, bruising her face and
head in a frightful manner. For
several days her life was dispaired of
and public feeling ran high. Threats
of lynching and tar and feathers, ETC.,
were freely made. The lady is a sister
of Mrs. d. Meeker of Puyallup. She is
one of the old settlers of Thurston

Bucoda, where she claims the love and
respect OF all.
The fact that there is scarcely an
empty Westinghouse or an idle man
in town is an evidence of a revival of
business says the Castle Rock Ad-
pocate. The advance in the prices of
lumber and shingles is causing the
mills to be operated more steadily and
to their full capacity, while the rise
in the price of logs and bolts, together
with the increased demand, has caused
greater activity in the camps, which
all helps to increase the business of
the merchant.
HUMAN life is held too cheaply when
the individual who needs tonic for
his system, seeks to cover his wants
by purchasing every new mixture that
is recommended to him. Remember
that Ayers Sarsaparilla has we'll
earned reputation of fifty years stand

more, this pretty and novel design may
prove acceptable. Select q piece of
heavy linen of the shade known as baby
blue. Of this cut a square of the size
which you desire the pillow to be,
which we will assume to be 20 by 20
inches. In the center of this haste care
fully q piece of finer white linen, which
should be a perfect circle and 10 inch
es in diameter. Buttonhole this around
the edge with white Spanish floss.
When so much is done, draw, or have
stamped, a design Of blue ragged rob-
ms OF gentians, as you prefer. Let the
flowers be mostly on the white disk,
but running over into the blue linen.
They should be daintily embroidered in
shades of blue flo floss in the style
known as Kcnsington stitch. The stems
and leaves are of a dull olive green.
The ruffie about the pillow is of the
blue linen, with a band of white about
one inch wide ON the edge. This frill
should be very full and SO carefully put
on as to leave the corners sharp and
we'll defined.
Down pillows are the most desirable,
but a very good substitute is the silky
fluff from the milkweed pod, which can
be found in great numbers on almost
every country wayside. The pods are
gathered green, placed in a bag and
hung in al attic to dry. After a few
weeks the down may be separated from
the dried pods and makes a most excel
lent filling for pillows of any sort.
