DEWEY DAY EXCURSION.
Bicycle Wide Over Tacoma Paths to Be d
Feature.

In speaking Of the Dewey Day ex-
cursion from Seattle to Olympia, over
the Northern Pacific, a Tacoma paper
says:
Gan excursion from Seattle to
Olympia by way OF Tacoma on April
80 is to open the Queen City's season
of pilgrimage to Pierce county's
matchless wheel paths. An early
train will carry the visitors and stops
will be made at various points to al
low tired riders to climb aboard. A
etop will be made at Nesqually hill
both going and coming. This point is
ten miles from Olympia and twenty.
five from Tacoma.
"A large number will come over
from Seattle and parties will be made
up to try all the combinations. Some
will ride the round-trip of seventy
miles, Others intend to ride down and
take the train back, while one party
will 60 by rail and return by way Of
American Lake and the asylum. A
special lunch will be prepared at
American Lake to accommodate the
excursionists. Women as we'll as men
are to take advantage of the opportun-
ity, and if the weather is good, it will
be the most brilliant event of the
early summers wheeling.
1t is proposed to have a delega-
ton of Tacoma riders welcome the
visitors who leave the train here and
the day will be made one for special
run to Olympia by as many local rid
ers as can manage it. Seattle bicy-
clers have always been generously will
ing to praise Tacoma's wheelways and
in wheeling the two cities rivalry has
been converted into fraternity. CO.
operation in the excursion is to be a
kindly tender of good fellowship from
Tacoma to the visitors, although the
objective point is the capital CITY,"

James J. Miller, a cook, was roasted
nearly to death in u room at the St.
Paul house, Seattle, Wednesday after
noon. The origin of the fire can only
be surmised, but when the smoke
from his room alarmed the hotel peo-
pie and they broke down the door, he
was found horribly burned from head
to foot, and taken to the hospital,
where he will probably die. When
asked how the fire originated he said,
l don't know; was asleep in bed !"
but the condition of the room shows
that this is not true. The bed-cloth-
ing was not even scorched. Miller's
friends say he WAS in the habit of curl
ing his mustache by heat, and it is
surmised that he was thus employed
when the lamp exploded, setting fire
to his clothing. Miller is 80 years of
age and has relatives In Abortion,
Ohio.
