D,nver's Mayor Determined to stop
Prize Fighting.

Denver. Col, Aug. S.-Mayor Johnson to-
day vetoed the ordinance placing the IL
cense of athletic clubs which conduct spar
ring contests at 81 500. In his message the
Mayor says:

which would make it possible to have re-
peated in Denver Euch a brutal contest as
was witnessed in this city about one week
ago az one of these so-calIed athletic as
sociations"
1t is not likely that the ordinance can be
passed over the veto.

Electricity.

Is the motive power of theuniverse
the life principle of everything ami
mate and inanimate, and the physical
life OF man. When properly and
scientifically employed as medical
agent in the treatment of acute and
chronic diseases il has no equal, but is
vastly superior to all medical agents
known to the profession for the restor-
alton of persons to health who are af-
fiicted with any of the various diseases,
and thus performs permanent, posi-
tive and speedy cure. The Electric
Therapeutic Sanatorium of Portland,
Or. is becoming widely known, and is
highly spoken of by the hundreds of
patients who went to the Sanatorium
sick and miserable, but in short
time left the institution we'll and
happy. The Electric Doctors from
the Electric Therapeutic Sanatorium
will rem ain in Shelton, with offices at
Hotel Webb, one more week and they
will continue to prove their claims as
to the advantage that Electricity has
over poisons and drugs in the treat
ment of nervous, acute and chronic
diseases. The Electric Doctors while
in your city will take cases that medi-
cine has failed to cure at one third of
Sanatorloum prices to demonstrate
their skill. No case taken that cannot
be cured. Now if medicine has failed
to cure you, don't give up; it has fail
ed to cure thousands that now owe
health and happiness to the Electric
Doctors. So there is still hope for
you. Office at Hotel Webb, until

Passed a Rough Night.

Last Tuesday evening Charles Du-
fold, the energetic travelling man for
The Fair, while in Mason County had
an experience he has no desire to re-
peat. Mr.. Dufold in the course of his
travels found himself about 10 O'Clock
on that evening about ten miles above
Shelton. It will be remembered that
that night was about the coolest we
have had in a long time. In attempt
ing to leave one train on the Peninsu-
lar and trying to board another going
in opposite direction he was left.
His valises were so heavy that he was
unable to make the connections in the
short space of time allowed him, and
he found himself completely side track
ed Looking about him as both trans
pulled out he was unable to see sign
of single human being or habitation.
He started out to make the best of it
and commenced walking down the
track, hoping to run across house
where he could put in the night. After
walking an hour he finally spied a
glinmer which he took for a light in a
house, and made Decline for it. By
this time he was almost frozen, and
any kind of accommodation was a
blessing. 1t was dark as could be,
and the first thing Mr.. Dufold knew
he had walked into lake. This was
cheering. but he waded back to shore,
chilled almost to death. There was
nothing to do but to continue walking,
and this he did. After keeping up his
unceasing trudge for three hours
more, Mr.. Dufold came up to a ranch
er's house and was taken in and cared
for. He was as nearly exhausted
when he reached this house as he ever
cares to be. He remained here the
rest of the night and returned to Shell
ton in the morning, glad to get out of
his mishap alive.-Olympian

Snow has fallen on seven DAYS and to
depth of 26.8 inches. There have

has been little warmer than the av-
erage for January for six years. if
having been 3725.
The steamer Dode has advanced her
fare from the points on the upper
part of the Canal to Seattle from a
dollar to a dollar and a halt. It has
made similar advance on freight.
Like the rest of this region, Hood
Canal has experienced touch of the
cold wave, the thermometer of the
weather bureau at the reservation hav-
ing been down to eleven degrees last
Friday morning. Other thermometers
were down as low as seven. Since
then the wind has died down and con-
sequently the canal has frozen over
from Union to Lillewaup, 8 miles, and
also some distance up the Canal. On
Saturday evening the mail failed to
come through, as the Dode was not
able to get farther than Lillewaup.
This is the first time it has thus been
frozen over since February 1883. Old
timers tell, however, that back in the
oO's it was frozen over so solidly that
cattle were taken across it, and hay
was hauled on it. The snow is about
eight inches deep again.

The promoters of the experiment at

Just because oysters are harder to
