followed him around the precinct. At
first the dog was shy, but, after max
ing few journeys, it became bolder
and kept by the sergeant's side. There
was no objection to this.
One of the dries of a sergeant is to
visit every patrolman every night. The
patrolmen usually have some idea of the
time when their superior officer is to
come, and, for this reason, sergeant and
poli> man meet in the same spot nearly
every night. The dog Jack was quick
TO learn this. After following Sergt.
Ryan about for few weeks it attached
itself to Sergt. Carroll one of the night
sergeants. Sergt. Carroll, liking COM
pany and having a tender spot in his
heart for CANNES, encouraged the dog
So the animal came to know the meet
ing place of all the sergeants and police
men.
About three months ago the dog
started out on its own hook. 1t cantered
down the terrace and met the police
man at Front avenue and Virginia
street. Stopping a few minutes here, it
jaunted on, stopping at Georgia and
Fourth streets to greet second police
man. In this way it went through all
the territory in the first precinct, and,
it is supposed, found every policeman.
On one corner the dog waited nearly
half an hour. The policeman there was
not to be found. He was detained at a
saloon where a row was going on. The
dog waited til the officer appeared;
then il trotted on.

ALASKAN NUGGETS.

The Bank of Montreal will soon es-
tablish a branch of that institution
at Fort Wrangel.
Japan is getting ready to send few
thousand able-bodied laborers to the
Klondike. One of the Nippen Yusen
kaisha steamers is preparing to do
business at Fort Wrangel.
The Joe Mathews, the boat launched
at Everett few days ago and which
has been at Seattle for inspection, will
soon leave for Copper River and later
proceed to st. Michaels and 60 up the
Yukon.
If the Klondike country equals ex-
pectations, and Siberia produces the
gold believed to rest in her bosom, the
total product of the yellow meta! will
be something startling. The South
African boom, always regarded as
pretty much of fake, has after all
demonstrated itself to be pretty much
of a good thing. The official reports
of the Transvaal country say that last
year the output reached the enormous
amount of 3,034,674 ounces. Each
year since 1892 has shown big in
crease OF yield, that of 1892 being l..
12O,S6S ounces, while the returns
of 1898 came to l, Ats, 463 ounces, that
of 1894 to 2,O24,15S ounces, that of
1895 to 2,277 ,635 ounces, that of 1896 to
2,2S1 1915 ounces and last years yield

Crushed 10 Death.

August Zandell, a well-known farmer
who lives on Mud Bay. met with his
death Tuesday night, while on his
way home from town, driving a team
with wagon-load of lumber. 1t
seems from evidences of the tragedy
that the team had been descending a
hill on Perry creek, when the brake
must have given way. and the heavy
load was pressed upon the horses. The
driver must have been thrown from
his seat and fell before the wheels
which ran over his body. His death
must have been instantaneous, for the
loose sand in which he fell showed
no signs of a struggle where his body
was found by Matt Twohy the next
morning. The horses. had stopped at
the foot of the hill.
Mr.. Zandell was nearly 60 years of
age, although he looked much younger.
He was an old resident OF this county
and held in high esteem by all who
knew him. He leaves wife and sew
eral children, who are in fairly
comfortable circumstances so far as
this worlds goods are concerned. His
farm is one of the best on the bay.
The unfortunate catastrophe has cast
q gloom over our community, for he
was respected by all who knew him.

EDITOR STANDARD:
No" that the smoke has ceased Tn
riS" from the ruins of the Olympi;,
sawmlll destroyed by fire last week,
the people of this community appear
10 nave lost sight of two or three
prominent facts in the case; namely.
that II the mill is to be rebuilt an
adequate sum of money is requisite
and that is wanted Immediately.
All agree that Mr.. Allen is deserving
OF material aid in reinstating himself
III his chosen field OF industry.
| have heard good many men
talk ON this wise, EYES, Il meeting
should be called and something done"
NOW that Is all that can be expected
from such men, so far as help is con-
cerned.
Deliberative meetings may be called,
speeches made and resolutions passed,
but all that will not assist Mr.. Allen
in rebuilding his noble plant. He
wants cash and that at once.
Another mistake people are in
clined to make is, to suppose that
nothing but large, high sounding
donations will avail anything. On
the contrary the smallest offerings
are as honorable and praiseworthy as
large ones and in their way will help
to swell the aggregate required.
To test the principle l herewith
start the good cause with five dollar
lift. Now let every man in Olympia
come forward and throw in small
offering and Mr.. Allen can soon begin
the work of reconstruction. Five
dollars may seem small affair
towards building big sawmiIl, but it
will buy an Ak and saw and start a
man at work, besides paying for few
loaves of bread.
Don't let anybody stand back to
see what his neighbor is going to do,
but if he has spare dollar, throw it
into the collection. l venture the
assertion that the people of the Capital
City could put that mill in running
order again in few weeks without
realizing where the money came from
or suffering any inconvenience. There
is no necessity for calling meetings,
committees, collectors or middle men
of any kind, if everybody will respond
willingly and promptly to the extent
of his ability. Let this be done, and
before we are aware of the fact, blast
will come from the steam whistle, the
machinery will be rumtling, rough
logs from the forest will be trans
ferred into beautiful forms of use
fulness and an army of men will be
once more earning an honest and
honorable livelihood for their families.
Pleasant weather is coming and the
mill can begin to earn something for
itself as soon as the first floor is COM
pleted and the machinery put in
position. Olympia cannot afford to
neglect this enterprise.

A reader of the STANDARD wants to
know what is the true meaning of
the following bit of news published in
the Tacoma Ledger of the 9th inst, as
forwarded by its correspondent in this
city:
COLUMBIA. March S.-The Supreme
Court has reversed the judgment of the
Superior Court of Spokane county, find
ing John Mason and Thomas Hopkins
guilty of burglary"
Our inquirer asks, "Were the two
men convicted by the Superior Court
and acquitted by the Supreme Court;
or were they acquitted by the Superior
Court and convicted by the Supreme
Court~ The comma after the word
county makes his perplexity evident.
Now let our friend ask some easy ques-
ton and we will promptly answer him;
say something like this: elf its as
pleasant yesterday as it was to-mor-
row, will we have very cold day to-
night~

The cause of SO many wormy ap
pies is because the moth that pre-
duces 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 a wash or spray
of caustic potash. Make 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

week. All of their savings of years
were destroyed. When the parents
found their efforts to save their home
OF no avail, the mother took the
children and went to the nearest
neighbours, where they arrived bare
headed and bare footed, wet and
muddy, having walked about half a
mile through woods after dark on 8
narrow and muddy trail. They were
at once taken in and cared for. A
subscription was circulated in Sno-

was going on contrary to the law. He
demanded to be admitted to the private
room where game was alleged to be

in. After some words Rush, who il
about half as large as the evangelist
told him to clear out. He did not go,
and Rush forcibly elected him from

None but Ayers a, tho Worlds Fail

There was only one blood purifier
admitted at the Worlds Fair, Chicago
1t was Ayers Sarsaparilla. All others
were shut out because they did not
meet the requirements of the Fair Com
missioners. Ayers Sarsaparilla only
was accorded the honor of an entry, be-
cause it did meet those require
ments. In other words, the Worlds
Fair authorities found Ayers Sarsapar-
lila to be an honest, scientific prepara-
ton, the only one of its kind they could
endorse. That was good testimony that
Ayers Sarsaparilla is the best blood
purifier made. Furthermore, hundreds
of physicians say it is, thousands of
druggists say it is, millions of patients
say it is. Take it, ailing friend, and you
will say it is.
