Took the 33rd. Degree Of WOOdcraft.

Every man who joins a fraternal
society has some reason for so doing.
At a recent Hoo Hoo concatenation
one the candidates stated that he
joined the order because his wife
wanted him to, and another said he
joined because he felt like it. Down
at Elma, Wash. a logger joined the
Woodmen because, no doubt, he
thought it was a loggers' association.
He told his experience to the Chronl-
Gle of that place as follows: lyon
want to know if rode the goat Mon
day night in the Woodmen's camp?
1 want you understand the Woodmen
amt got goat and never did have
goat. They just thrash a man over
the head with whole wagon load of
hoop-poles, and then run over him
with the running gear of the wagon,
pick him up and console him by telling
that he has wandered on the wrong
skldroad and the choppers had acct
dentally fallen tree on him. Then
they put him in an old kraut barrel,
half full of kraut not fit to eat; head
up the barrel and fool-like keep pull
ing at it till it gets away and rolls
down stairs two or three times. Then
let you out and tell you that you've
been riding the goat. No, sir, them
fellers don't run their logging with
goats. Lumber Trade Journal.

Joseph Doyle Attempts Suicide.

Joseph Doyle:~the we'll known logger
and saloon-keeper formerly associated
with JoerDeer, who became involved
In debt and has been attempting to re-
new his shattered fortunes in Califor-
MIA mining for the past two years,
dropped in town Saturday afternoon.
Many acquaintance spoke to him dur
ing the evening, but he seemed to be
broodipg over troubles and had little
tos~say to any one. The following
morning the public was Mortified to
learn that he had attempted suicide.
He spent most of the time with his
half-brother John Doyle: and retired
late at night in one of the rooms over
Doyle & Elllott's with Frank Kinna-
van. About 3 O'Clock the latter dis
covered that Doyle had cut his throat
with penknife. Help was called
and Drs. Beach and Wells were soon
in attendance. Examination showed
that five wounds had been inflicted,
@AA~ "AhNPiPS, jug u1dA anu SCNCl oil
smaller veins being severed and
9sophagus cut to the posterior wall.
Fortunately the larger artery was not
injured, else the patient would have
bled to death Immediately.
The Doctors dressed the injuries,
but Doyle continued to decline, and
Tuesday afternoon they performed an
operation in tracheotomy, inserted a
tube in the windpipe below the injury
and the patient was relieved. His con-
dition has been precarious during the
week, but at this writing, the doctors
think his chances are somewhat i'm
proved.
Last year Mrs. D oyle secured a di-
yorce and married Perry Robinson.
and this, together with his financial
troubles, the news of the recent death
of his mother, in Ohio, evidently tenn
porari1y unsettled his mind. Since his
effort to make way with himself, he
has been rational, regretting his rash
act, and is anxious to 1iye.

HOOD CANAL, Jan. II, 1898.
The Young People of Riverside met
at the school house on New Years eve
and watched the old year out and the
new one in. They spent the time in
games and a social.
Ned G. Waterman, of the reserva-
ton, thinks that he had one of the

boy, present from his wife.
b. Woolett. of Lopez Island, spent a
few days last week at Union City, Wis

on the outside, seven by eight by
eleven inside, and weighs about one
hundred pounds. 1t was made in Gin
cinnati, and cost laid down at Union

what deeds and valuable papers COM
mon people have, has a combination
lock, and is said to be fire proof. 1t
was obtained through the Youths
Companion, which offers it as a prize.
