The visit to Walla Walla lodge on
Oct Is will be memorable one in the
history OF 5lS. Carrying the fraternal
spirit OF the lodge to Walla Wala and
other lodges in our neighborhood is not
the only thing which will be accom-
plished, but that broader and more
wholesome spirit of emulation and co.
operation which means much for the
growth of amicable relations between
stgrowing communities. who in the
ardent and necessarily strenuous digging
for the spud that keeps life in the cheild

BEYOND THE GRAVE
HE CARRIES THE ANIMOSlTY OF
A LIFETIME

Ignatiu> Colvin Cuts OFF His Heirs
With the Mythical Dollar -
Leaves His Widow With Bare
! Pittancc Provides for Keeping
! the Feul Alive.
The last will and testament OF
Ignatits Colvin, the ThurSton county
pioneer, who died last week in san
Francisco hospital while submitting
to surgical operation for cancer of
the face, has been submitted for pro.
bait.
1t Is IN some respects Il remarkable
document. Mr.. COlvin left widow and
four children, two sons and two
daughters. The will bcqucaths to the
widow and one son, Ben Colyin, 81
each. To one daughter was bcqueathed
u life lease of 1G0 acres of land The
second daughter receives life lease of
IL similar farm, situated elsewhere, and
to the second son, Fred Colvin, is
bcqucathcd Il life lease of the 1000.
acre home farm, together with all the
/ stock, implements, etc, in fee.
1t is condition of the will that
these requests are to he cnloyed by
the favored heirs. only SO long as thew
have absolutely no business relations
with the widow, her children by a
former husband, or the son who is cut
off with Il dollar. To make sure that
these conditions shall be observed,
provision is made for the appoint
ment of Frank Ruth, of Rainier,
and John Calvin, of Centralia, to
manage such forfeited estate. In case,
however, of noncompliance with the
will, the heirs of the lcgatees are to
have full and unconditional title to
the property passed in trust to the
favored heirs.
The will was made two years ago ut
the time of family difficulty in the
Colvin household. Mrs. Colvin at
that time made application for divorce.
but this was denied her. In the family
division Ben Colvin upheld his mother
as against his father.
Since that time reconciliation has
been effected, and Ben gained such
favor in the eyes of his father as to ell
joy apparently his full confidence.
When deceased was preparing to go to
San Francisco to submit to the opera
ton, which he felt might prove fatal,
Ben was the son whom he solicited to
accompany him, and this the dutiful
son did at his own expense. In the
preparation the later took this identical
will and committed it to the hands of
a neighbor and friend, to be held in
custody as his last will and testament.
Ben Colvin not only went with his
father to the hospital but did all he
could to contribute to his comfort
while he lived and sorrowfully accom-.
panied the remains home for burial,
only to he confronted with the will.
There is talk that it may be con-
tested, but no proceedings to that end
have been filed.

DISASTROUS FIRE.
GEORGE S. ALIENS EASTSiDE
MILL BURNED.

The Fire Originated From the
Furnaces, and Spread With
Fearful Rapidly - Was Fully
Ablaze When the Alarm was
Sounded.
At 11:15 last night an alarm was
sounded from Box %, and by the time
people who were abed could dress and
appear on the street, a brilliant il.
Illumination from the foot of Jefferson
street, showed very plainly that a fire
Of no small extent was in progress and
that the Eastside mill was the object
of destruction. By the time that
lines OF hose could he laid from the
hydrant on Fourth street, the whole
building seemed to be aflame, and the
tiremen's efforts were directed towards
extinguishment at the south end of the
long structure and preventing the
fire from spreading to the lumber
yard adjacent thereto. The machin-
cry in that part of the building sus-
tanned but small damage, and the
nest of boilers and engines may, it is
thought, be placed in serviceable con-
dition at a small cost.
The fire undoubtedly originated
from the furnaces, and had a watch
man been OH duty it could have been
kept from spreading. But Mr.. Allen
has been obliged to economize to make
living and pay his creditors, and this
likewise had kept him from carrying
any insurance, which on that class OF
property commands high premium.
His loss may be computed at from 49,
600 or "a 900, to he determined when
an examination is made of such ma
chinery as seems to be capable of re-
pairs.
The deepest sympathy OF the COM
munity is felt for Mr.. Allen, for the
mill was the result of many years of
hard labor, and he was just beginning
to feel that he was its owner, by grad
ual reduction of his Indebtedness. 1t
was capable OF cutting 10000 or 3d.
600 per day, and had been running
steadily on cash orders the past year.
He will probably rebuild, for he has
received much encouragement from
those who are able to help him bear
the hrunt of the disaster.

Shall We Have am Eyn

Shall We Have an EvapoFaIor
The joint committee appointed by
the Horticultural Society and the
Chamber of Commerce, to suggest
some feasible plan for caring for
the fruit crop of our county, made a
report TO the former organization Sat-
urday. They recommend immediate
action for erection of an evaporation
and creamery. They say that the
product of our orchards soon will, ii
they do not now, aggregate 10000 tons
per annum of green fruit, in addition
to small fruits, berries and vegetables +;
that this product cannot be success.
fully or profitably marketed in its
green state; that it must be dried,
cured or canned at the proper time, or
much of it will be lost. The estab-
lishment of an equable standard grade
OF product seems to be improbable
with individual effort, and to secure a
high and uniform grade requires the
cooperation of effort and the estab-
lishment OF a dryer and cannery capa-
bic of handling all the fruit of the
county. The committee recommends
the organization of company with a
capital of $5O,OOO; 20 per cent. to be
paid up and the remainder in four an
nual payments, and that this corpor-
alton proceed at once to erect such
evaporation, canning and drying works
in Olympia as will be adequate to
handle the crop of 1898.
The report was adopted, and Messrs.
Eckert, Clough and Barnard were APP
pointed to act in conjunction with a
committee of the Chamber of Com.
merce, to carry into effect the recon-
mendation of the committee.
There is very little doubt but that
the Chamber will approve the recon-
mendations and appoint a committee
to act with the gentlemen named by
the Horticultural Society.

1t was Ayers Sarsaparilla. All others
we're shut out because they did not

was accorded the honor of an entry, be-
cause it did meet those require

About Wormy Apples.

The cause of so many wormy APP
Piles is because the moth that pro
duccs the worms find so many places
to deposit their eggs in the moss and
rough bark. This may be prevented
by the timely use of wash or spray
of caustic potash. Make a strong So
luton and apply with brush or spray
which removes the moss and increases
the growth of the tree, kills all vermin
and fungus growth. When used as a
spray, apply before the leaves start; as
a wash it may be used at any time.
Red Seal Lye is the only pure potash
in the market, as it contains neither
salt nor soda.

A SYSTEM OF BlAcKMAIL.

Opium Joint Keepers Say that Chicago
Policemen Collect Tribute from Them.
Chicago, Jan. 26.-The committee
from the state senate investigating the
Chicago police force heard testimony
yesterday tending to show that a regu.
lar police system of blackmail on the
Chinese and white opium joints exists.
Several Chinese appeared before the
committee, but with one or two eXcep
tions said they were afraid to testify.
Sing Tin, proprietor of an opium joint,
said that if Gov. Tanner or Mayor Han.
rison would guarantee him protection
he would tell all he knew.
Sing Tin said that within the past
ten days the police had visited all the
opium joints and warned the keepers
against giving testimony before the
senate committee. He created a sen.
sation by stating that he and Sam Moy
had once been imprisoned for 10 days
on the North Side for talking too
much" and that Sam Moy had been
compelled to leave the city. Moy Lin
was more free in his answers. He said
that most opium joint proprietors paid
$40 week for police protection. Moy
Lin said that Alderman Coughlin was
the beneficiary.

"One burst a short distance above the

without even scratching his body, which
he had thought so vulnerable, but
crushing to jelly his foot from the tips

many other wounded to Washington

zettes and no end of gesticulations in
the cafes. He has charged the minister
of war and other government officials
with perjury at the trial of Ferdinand
Esterhazy, and the government has de-
cided to hold him responsible for his
charges, to prove them or to take the al
tentative of going to Jail.
NJ. Zola has expressed himself as being
glad of the opportunity to bring for
ward his evidence against the army, and
all Europe iseYpectant. The great mas
ter of modern realism" in fiction is
largely supported By public opinion. He
finds his present quest as interesting a
pursuit as he has found his quest for
a seat in the academy, and it is believed
that his trial if it comes-will prove
as thrilling as many of his novels that
deal with the pathogenic aspects of
crime
Whatever Zola has done as realistic
novelist to deserve censure, his course in
this Dreyfus controversy entities him to
hearty commendation. At the risk of
offending the capricious and passionate
French, so easily carried away by neat
and eloquent phrases about the army's
honor, the integrity of military justice,
and so on, he has dared to plead for JUS
tice. He has courted unpopularity and
eXecration, and to that extent has re-
deemed himself from the accusation of
pandering to the lower elements for the
sake of profit and notoriety.
