Dangerous ApparitiOns.

Every once in a while a ghost
crops up in the columns of the daily
or weekly press, This ghastly spirit
sometimes assumes the part of the
promenader on some lonely road,
who terrifes belated travellers out
of their wits. Few persons credit
these blood curdling accounts of the
doiugs of his ghostship, but there is
tenement which is unquestionably
haunted at times. When a nervous
malady attacks the human tene-
ment the manifestations are most
appalling, and usually most violent
at night. Sleeplessness, if nervous
ness is disregarded, becomes, chron-
ic, and the entire system suffers in
consequence. For disturbance of
the nerves Hostetter's Stomach
Bltters is a thorough remedy, as it
also. is for malaria, rheumatism,
dyspepsia, constipation and bilious
ness.

Evidently the advice of the vet
eran journalist, Horace Greeley, is
not being needed by the American
youths of today. He told them to
"go west" Their faces are now
turned to the far east, even unto
the Philippines on the border of

THE TEXAS GIRL.

Chiyalry used to be described as a
southern virtue, and while we do
not wish to imply that the men OF
the north are unchiYalrous it is
quite possible that in the south
womensare still regarded with a
greater degree of formal reverence
than elsewhere. A neighbor over
in Texas describes with enthusiasm
the women of his state and shows
why they cannot fail to excite ad-
miration. They are, he declares,
"sweet, polite, gracious and coura-
geous; they do not curse or swear;
they do not use slang, and are not
drunkards. Most of them ride well
on horseback and can use the six
shooter, but do not want to take
away a mans Job or position.
Could a more engaging picture be
drawn? These lovely compounds OF
sweetness and strength know their
power, but do not abuse it. They
may resent injury in the most ef-
fective fashion, but they are not
mean. They would hesitate before
shooting a man who has a family
dependent upon him. They-the
ladies-are no mere Amazons. The
fact that they do not curse and
swear shows that they possess also
the gentler domestic virtues. Those
who are in search of the ideal girl
should lust step over into Texas.

Weary of Life.

Tuesday, James Cribs, weary
with the tolls of this life, endedIhis
existence by plunging into the
South Palousc river, from the Main
street bridge, For a number of
years deceased had been at times
mentally ailing. When these spells
were upon him he would make
threats against his own life and at
times against others. Monday he
acted rather queerly and Tuesday
he implored DR.. Stuart of the Col
fax drug store to give him some
thing that would end his misery.
This was refused and the unfortu-
nate man left. AS he had made
such requests before the matter was
not seriously considered by any of
his friends, but at $3.50 p. m, he
went to the South Palouse bridge
and deliberately plunged into the
shallow water. Mrs. William Car
ley happened past and saw him
floating down the stream. The
alarm was given and in few mo-
ments a crowd collected. William
and Nj. Z, Carley went into the
water and brought the body to
shore and used all means possible
to bring back life.
Though the suicide had been in
the water less than eight minutes
life was extinct. DR.. Benson ex-
amined the body few moments
later and said that all possible had
been done, and that the quickness
of death was occasioned by the de-
ceased filling his lungs with water
at the first plunge.
Deceased was born in England
April :, 1882, In 1885 he moved
with his family to a farm near Al
mota where he resided for two
years, when he moved to ColfaX, at
which place he has lived since. He
was stone cutter by trade, and at
one time owned the CoIfax marble
works. He leaves wife and seven
children to mourn his death. He

SEATTLE, Wash, June 6, 1898.
The past week was very favor.
able for grass and exceedingly fav-
orable for the grain crop, on ac-
count of GOODNESS and abundant
moisture. All except the last two
DAYS we're below the normal tenn
perature, and the nights were cool,
even frosty in some localities.
The fore part of the week was
rainy, about half an inch of rain
fall occurring in the Sound coun-
try, and varying amounts east of
the mountains; Walla Walla re-
ported one-fourth Of an inch.
Heavy rains had occurred in the
Eastern Section during the last
days of May, 80 that the soil there
has been thoroughly wet, and the
late sown grain has terminated.
All reports from the Eastern Sec
tien continue to be favorable about
early spring wheat, and fall sown
wheat; the latter has headed out,
and in some localities is in bloom.
The wheat has stooled out we'll and
made a heavy stand. Some was
lodged by heavy rains, but there is
every probability it will become
erect as the weather gets dry.
Until Saturday the weather was
a little too cool fot beans and corn,
and they look yellow. Potatoes
have grown we'll, and in the more
advanced localities are in bloom.
The wet weather prevented cult
waiting and the weeds got start.
Glover is about ready for cutting
and the first warm and dry days
will see considerable hay making.
Alfalfa in the Eastern Section is
ready tor cutting; the crop was
somewhat shortened by dry wealth
er in May The fore part of the
past week was too wet for straw
berries, and there was tendency
to rot; with the hot spell ofthe past
two days they haze ripened rapidly,
and are OF large size and excellent
flavor. The crop is an abundant
one. Cherries have fallen off good
deal, and the crop is likely to be
short.

Heavy rains the past week has
changed the aspect Of vegetation
wonderfully. Everything in fine

Spokane County; Paradise
The bounteous rains which left US
on 28th ult. amounted to nearl y
two inches. Winter wheat has suf-
fered some By being f1attened dur

will erect itself as soon as sunshine
comes. Trent-Winter wheat all
headed out. The yield of cherries
will be considerably less than usual
owing to frosts while in bloom.
