King Brought out $2S, 900.

p. T. King who was-a wellknown
alumberman Before he went
into theinterior Of Alaska a few years
ago, wfs one of the successful Klon-
dAsers who returned on the sCity of
Seattle yesterday. Shelton men in
Alaska have had good luck. When
seen atsthe-- New England hotel last
night Mr.. King did not care to make
public the value of the drafts he
brought out. Another Shelton man
who came out with the party said that
King turned over to the commercial
companies sufficient gold dust to get
a draft for $4,000. When asked re
garding the food question Mr.. Alpg
said:
ri don't believe there will be any
starvation at Dawson, in view OF the
fact that so many are leaving either
for Fort Yukon down the river or for
salt water by way Of the lakes and
Chilkoot pass. There is unquestlon-
ably shortage OF food but partners
are casting lots as to which one shall
make the trip out over the ice and IN
this way there will be enough provls-
ions to last those that stay"-P.-l.

History will be Repeated.

Few people on Grays Harbor fully
estimate the tremendous effect the
rush to the Klondike country this
spring and summer will have on this
region. Being removed from the di-
rect line OF travel to that region it does
not directly strike them as it does the
Puget Sound people. But the effect
will be far reaching. There are mer-
chants and workingmen here whose
heads are turned that way, and go
they will. Already an enormous de-
mand for lumber has struck us. Wa
ges will naturally go up. The price
of lumber and logs is and will quickly
follow. This demand for lumber will
be enormously increased by the con-
sumption in Alaska, which will be
enormous. We shall for a year at
least probably see a big bubble; which,
as all former prototypes have done,
will burst. The shrewd man will at
tend to his business and make hay
while the sun shines, being prepared
for the outcome. While.we think i'm
mense fortunes and development will
be made in Alaska for few years, the
immoderation of people will bring
about theiusual crash. The conserya.
tive man will be ready for it when il
comes.-Aberdeen Bulletin.

what good would this do the poor

"And, Mr.. Bryan, if your scheme to

When the intersection of the streets
named was reached the beast evidently
concluded to run things on its own plan
and made II sudden plunge for the pave

to get ont o. danger with til. exception
Of Mrs. John Herman Of Philadelphia

her bicycle along The crowded thorough

peril was brought t" her attention by
some one calling for her I" get ont Of the

Before she had time to heed the advice
the infuriatcd animal had struck and
klnrkc ed her down, ut the same time
! trmpling upon her with its lI"oi>.
The accident was all over in an instant
and willing persons ran to the assistance
OF the prostr;lte and terrified woman.
She was subsequently taken t" the
. residence Of Dr. George {. >teinickrn,
; ~ Washington street, where her in.

4 After the accident the maddencd COW
continued it, career for about II square,
when it was currallcd and mrrklv re-
>,mcd its way to the abbattOir.
During the excitement the l",lestrl-
ans in the vicinity gave the aninal Il
wide BERTH and in their hurry /" g,

took il tumble, but without sustaining
any serious injury
