About 100000 feet is the daily out
put of logs from the Black Hills and
Chehalis logging companies, at the
present time. The reverberations
caused by falling logs as they take

]. J. Westbrook, one of the older
residents of Olympia, who now lives
on American Lake, met with a serious
accident. a few days ago. He had
climbed upon a shed to cut away an
overhanging limb of tree, and when

missed it and the momentum threw
him to the ground below. He was

Ida Diesner has filed petition for
divorce from her husband, Max. Dies
ner, whom she married in Germany
last August. Diesner is q shoemaker,
employed in this city, man of ma.
ture age, while the applicant is only
81 years old. They arrived here q

A veritable fairy bower is disclosed
on entering Miss Tarhell's millinery
parlors. Her stock of Fall goods is,
in itself, ravishingly beautiful, even to
other than feminine eyes, and when
it is reinforced by Natures colors, as
portrayed on Autumn leaves and the
last OF the seasons floral beauties, ar.
ranged by the deft fingers of the true
artist, scene OF splendor is presented
which enraptures the senses. This
may seem somewhat transcendental,
but call and see if it is not so, and

"loyely" hats, which are "just too
cute for anything"
1t is the concensus OF opinion of

number of Beasts were present. who

Still there were few who didn't
think it )" any better than the Calhoun
Co.," utterly oblivious of the fact that

brought them in here week ahead oil

in strength and numbers. The pres

parade, but it will be made neverthe
less on arrival Of the train, at 5 80 in
the evening.
Beach & Bowers broke the record
both in business and excellence o.

exhibition of educated dogs, which
perform tricks that almost make thu
audience believe they are directed b,
