WHILE no snow to amount to any

THE two newspapers burned out at

people here. He was in Morgantown
last fall wanting to join the Universe

local lads not doing business on that

is without question that he met with
another reception from financial
standpoint.
AT Weaver's grocery they have loose
barley, hominy, rolled oats, soups,
lima and kidney beans and the choic-

SNEAK thieves broke into the store
room OF the Delicatessen Cafe on Sat
urday night and stole all the oysters
about gallons-and some other arti-
eles of less value. A few nights be-
fore thieves raided NJ. FL. Carrieo's
poultry rost and carried away three
fine turkeys. Depredations have been
committed in other parts OF town by
petty thieves. People are on the alert
and some of these light fingered gen.

Mr.. GEORGE RIDDLE who was to

will read this evening in Commence

large crowd out to hear him. On Sat-

the hall ia large numbers even after
the time to begin had arrived and it
had become generally known over
town that the engagement would not
be filed on that evening.

IT is a real pleasure to deal at
Viewers grocery. They have the
best of everything and spare no effort
to supply their customers with exactly
what is wanted and do it in an ac-

of their steady trade.
ONCE during the game at Wash
ington McWhorter was near to
scoring. He had eluded all Of the
Wash JEFF players but the full back
and succeeded knocking him out by
the stiff arm but in doing so stepped
across the side lines and the effect
went for nothing. One man in the

would have scored on them for the

RIDDLE, Merchant of Venice to
night.
THERE will be plenty of light at
the show tomorrow night as the
electric light plant will be running
again by that time. They hope TO
start to-night but will be on sure to-
morrow night.
MoRGANTowN will not have any
fears OF heated terms after this when
we get the new ice plant started.
The best and cheapest ice that can be
sold here is promised by the promo
tiers.
THE Merchant of Venice will be
read at Commencement Hall this ev-
ening by Mr.. George Riddle. He was
taken sick on the train Saturday and
was unable to meet his engagement
on Saturday night but he will be all
right tonight it is thought.
THE accident this morning was a
very bad one but it is matter Of
congratulation that it was no worse.
The victims OF the explosion are
resting better this afternoon but it
will be some time before they entire
ly recover from it. They we're very
badly burned.
1T Is matter Of qualification that
Tom Bowie was not seriously injured
when he jumped from the roof Of Mr..
Hennen's residence this morning.
He ran to the edge and jumped over
distance of thirty five or forty feet to
the side walk below lighting on the
stone doorstep but strange to say he
was not hurt by the fall.
WE clip this from copy Of the
Harvard Crimson received yester-
day: THE University is most fortu
nate this year in being able to listen
to series of readings from Shakes
peare, by one who is, perhaps, the
greatest Shakesperian reader in
America, Mr.. George Riddle. The
value of such readings, especially to
college students Of English, can hard
" be overestimated.T The readings al
ready given have been most enjoya-
bic and the University eagerly looks
forward to those which are to come.

were received with uproarious ap-

"Wheu emotional statesmen were

Death Of State Senator Reinhart.

S. d. Reinhart, pioneer and ex-State
Senator from the 34th district, died at
the home of his daughter at New
Whatcom, Wednesday afternoon, of
cerebral softening. He had been in
poor health the past eighteen months.
Mr.. Reinhart was born in Lincoln
county, Kentucky, in 1926, and came
to Washington in 1852, settling in
Olympia. In 1871 he moved to What
com county, settling on a ranch at
Ten Mile. In 1896 he was elected
State Senator on the fusion ticket
from the Thirty-fourth district, com.
plotting his term OF office with the
close of the last Legislature.
He leaves one son, C. s. Reinhart,
Clerk of the Supreme Court and Mayor
of Olympia, and one daughter, Mrs.
w. d. Chandler, of New Whatcom.
The funeral was to have been held in

IT makes one tired to read Oly's va
porings over the result of the Seattle
election. In an iesue between Seat
ties well.known business methods
and any proposition for reform, it was
foregone conclusion that the "wine
and women" policy would prevail. 1t
is simply another case in which the
Dutch have taken Holland. 1t may
be added, however, that the " Compos-
lite" party were damphools to be
driven to the alternative of butting a

Fame and Name.

The P.-L claims, on authority Of a
returned pilgrim of the Queen City,
that lie had heard the name OF Seattle
m ,ntioned hundred times TO that of
any other city in the State once, by
people oil the East, while on his tour.
That may be true; but the writer
while on similar pilgrimage in the
sos, observed that not one in ten OF
the benighted heathcns OF the East
knew how to pronounce the name, in
variably shortening it to two syllables
-Seat-l; which would appear to indi
cate that they might probably know
as little of its chief characteristics,
push and vim, which have carried it
successfully through long season of
depression that has left the wrecks of
many ambitious municipalities strewn
on the sands of time. But ignorance
Of the etymology of name is not
cause for serious repining. Many in
telligent Fasteners insist upon calling
Puyallup "Pollywaup," although its
photography affords no justification
for such a perversion OF written sound
characters. A professor of one of the
leading colleges took the writer to
task for his pronunciation of the word
Willamette.
~ beg your pardon" said he, but
the best authorities unite in pronounc-
ing the name of Oregon's chief river,
Willamette"
"But," We affirmed" have lived
on the banks OF that river from child.
hood, and there it is known by every
body outside of the State college
Willamette University-as Viii lam.et,
and inside that institution as WAL
lam-et, probably for the same reason
that some people pronounce either
and neither, ither and nither, to dis
tinguish them from the common
herd"
Well, WE'LL" sighed the savant,
"they have no right to pronounce the
name any differently than the plain
rules of prosody would direct" and he
passed on obviously in supreme ignor-
ance of the wise admonition in support
OF common usage, embodied in the in
junction " When in Rome, do as Ro-
mans do" and of the legal maxim that
usage may become law when sane
toned by the many"
