The most remarkable thing ABBOTT Mrs.
Nellie J. Lord, of Stafford Corner, N. H.,
is that she is alive to-day.
No one, perhaps, is more surprised at
this than Mrs. Lord herself. She looks back
at the day when she stood on the verge of
death and shudders. She looks ahead at
Life Of happiness with her children, her hus-
band and her home with JOY that only
mother can realize.
Mrs. Lord IS the mother of three children,
two Of whom are twins; until the twins
came nothing marred the joy Of her life.
Then she was attacked with heart failure
and for year was unable to attend to the
ordinary duties of the home. In describing
her own experience Mrs. Lord says:
II had heart failure so bad was often
thought to be dead.
with this had neuralgia of the stom-
ach so bad it was necessary to give me
morphine to deaden the pain.
Sometimes the doctors gave me tenn
porary relief, bot in the end It seemed as If
my suffering was multiplied.
Medicine did me no good and was but
an aggravation.

the exception of few small prairies
and river bottoms the whole country
was originally an unbroken forest
heavily timbered, and most of it still
remains in that condition. OF the
whole district it is fair to say that
nine tenths is in State Of nature to-
day.
There are some of the largest saw
and single mills in the world on
Puget Sound, many of which have
been in operation for long time and
yet no appreciate inroad has been
made in the immense supply of fir,
spruce, pine, hemlock and other varie-
ties of coniferous trees which practi-
cally cover the whole service of the
State. One who has been in the white
pine forests of Minnesota has formed

one of which was 48 feet in circum-
ference and surrounded by other trees
from six to ten feet in diameter and
all, almost entirely covering the
ground. In relating my story to an
old Californian he at once put me in
the shade by telling of a mammoth
tree he saw in California los feet in
circumference and so I concluded that
trees like many other things are only
relative in size.
The second industry in western
Washington is perhaps the fish bust
ness. Having intimated in former
letter that would refrain from fish
stories l must beg the reader to con-
slider what l may say here, only a bit
of history.
Having the products of the Sound
country under consideration let us for
our present purposes consider the fish
of the sound as crop which is self
sown and grows without any prepare
ton on mans part, the harvest of
which depends on the ability of the
fisherman to gather it in. Though
there are found here nearly all varie-
ties of salt water fish in great abun-
dance, and oysters and clans as we'll,
there is only time in this letter to
speak of salmon, for which the upper
Pacific coast is noted. The first
schools of salmon come into the sound
about the first of June, the run con-
tinuing until December, for the pur-
pose of going up fresh water streams

what locality the poet had in mind
when he wrote the prelude to Eyange-

that the part of the State of Washing
ton west of the Cascades at the time
or even few decades ago, could have
fitted the sentiment more completely
than the inhospitable coast of Nova
Scotia. Western Washington en-
braces all of the State lying between
the Cascade mountains and the Pacific
Coast. Its climate differs widely
from the eastern section, the winters
being milder and the summers cooler,
there being very little snow in winter
and a great deal of rain. The rainy
season begins in October and lasts I'M
til March, the annual precepitations
being about forty inches. In summer
there is almost uhbroken sunshine,
though the days are not excessively
hot while the nights are cool. With

to spawn. They follow along the
shores and turn into the first stream
they meet, up which they go in great
numbers, it not infrequently happen
ing that the entire surface of the water
is covered by the backs of the fish.
They go beyond the influence of tide
water and as near to the source of the
stream as possible before calling a
halt.
1t is at this time that the great bulk
of the fish that are used in the can
neries are caught, the methods vary
ing according to the means and ability
of the fisherman, much the larger part
being taken by independent parties,
though some canneries arrange to
catch part of their stock.
Of the appliances, perhaps most are
taken in what is called a trap, which
is made by driving stakes about two
inches apart across stream and then
beginning little way below, proceed
in the same way from each bank at an
angle to near the center, where an
opening is left for the pass into the
pen, which is closed up when a suf6-
Gent haul has got in. Some again
use seines-two or more men With
boats heading off the schools and
landing them on the banks OF the bay
or river, while some fish alone with a
spoonhook, similar to those used on
our lakes, only larger and stronger.
The catching of salmon for the can
neries is open to everybody and all
kinds of crafts from the pretentious
little steam tug with it's complement Of
men to the Siwash native Indian) with
his dug out may be seen making for
the canneries.
The number of fish taken in a trap
or seine at time is only limited to
the capacity OF the device, it often
happening that the trap is full and
that the seine has inclosed a larger
number than the fishermen can land
There is neither sport, poetry nor
satisfaction to the real fisherman in
this kind of fishing and to those who
engage in it the task soon becomes as
prosaic as saving wood or blasting
stumps. At the heighth of the season
upwards of 10000 salmon have been
brought to a single cannery in day,
the average price paid being about a
cent and half each, the weight run
ming from two to twelve pounds. The
fish are cleaned and cooked and put
into cans holding two pounds each,

PEACE TERMS.
Made Public on Authority Of Presi-

The terms of peace offered by
the Uuited States were handed to
the French ambassador last Satur-
day and are as follows:
The president does not now put
forward any claim for a pecuniary
indemnity, but requires the relin-
quishment of all claim of sover-
eighty over or title to the island OF
Cuba, as we'll as the immediate
evacuation of Spain of the island.
The cession TO the United States
and immediate evacuation of Puerto
Rico and other islands under Span
ish sovereignty in the West Indies,
and the like cession of an island in
the Ladrones.
The United States will occupy
and hold the city, bay and harbor
of Manila, pending the conclusion
of treaty of peace, which shall
determine the control, disposition
and government of the Philippines.
If these terms, are accepted by
Spain in their entirety, it is stated
that commissioners will be named
by the United States to meet COM
missioners on the part of Spain for
the purpose Of concluding treaty
of peace on the basis above indi-

Senator William NJ. Stewart, who

troops from Cuba, Porto Rico, the
Philippines and all other Spanish
possessions in the Pacific and the
absolute REIMBURSEMENT by Spain
of all right or claim of sovereignty
in such islands.

of peace, the same as Germany did

islands, within the confluence of

would exact no further indemnity,

claims, as compensation, must be

After the enrrendsf Of Ponce
General Miles issued the following
address to the people:
I'm the prosecution of the war against

justice and humanity, it's military forces
have come u Occupy The island o. Puerto
Rico. They come bearing the banners
Of freedom. inspired by noble purpose,
TO seek the enemies OF our government
and Of yours, to destroy or capture all
armed resistance. They bring you the
fostering arms Of free people, whose
greatest power is justice aud equality to
all living within their fo.d. Hence they
release you from your former pOliticai re-
iatiOns, and il is hoped this will be fol-
lowed by your cheerful accordance. The
first object of the American military
forces will be to overthrow the authority
Of Spain and give the people of your
beautiful island the largest measure OF
liberty consistent with this military DC
cnpatlon. They have not come To make
war on the people of the country who for
centuries have been oppressed, but on the
contrary they come to protect not only
yourselves, but your property, promote
your prosperity aud bestow the immuni
ties AMI blessings of our enlightened and
liberal institutions and government. 1t
is not their purpose to Interfere with the
existing laws and customs which are
wholesome and beneficial to the people,
so long rs they conform to the rules OF the
military administration. order and justice.
This is not war Of devastation and

control Of the military and naval forces

lightened civilization

General Miles in an official dis
patch from Ponce July 31st to the
war department says volunteers are
surrendering themselves with arms
and ammunition. Four tiflhs OF
the people are overjoyed atthe ar
rival of the army. Two thousand
from one place have volunteered to
serve with it. They are bringing
in beef, cattle and other supplies.
Business in the city has enjoyed a
great boom since the arrival Of the
Americans. The merchants, who
closed their places have opened
them and are eagerly engaged in
competition for the American dol
lars.
Late dispatches from Madrid
state that the Spanish government
will combat TO the last against
cession of Porto Rico TO the United
States. 1t would rather sacrifice
one of the Philippine islands, con-
tending that Porto Rico has always
been loyal and outside the scope Of
the war.
