An Exciting Ride.

Adam Johnson, while coming in
from Yelm, on bicycle, to visit his
sick wife in this city, one night last
week, had an exciting experience with
a large cougar, just beyond Chambers
prairie. The animal was discovered
by the road, about fifteen feet dis
tant, with eyes blazing from the re.
Elected light of the cycle-lamp, tail
switching, and back bowed as if in the
act of springing upon the rider. 1t was
no time for hesitation, 80 Mr.. j., who
was going at rapid speed made q
esprit" by the wicked.looking animal
which would have made Cotter jealous
with envy, and ~ the tail of the ami
NAL just swished past his rear wheel
as it missed by foot or more its hu.
man prey, he breathed a sigh of relief
and sped on his way. Mr.. J. acknowl.
edges to having been considerably
frightened, and has resolved to carry q
small.sized cannon with him hereafter
when compelled to make a Gilpin
ride through the woods at the dead
hour OF midnight.

AURlllA SULLIVAN.
Her Body Changed to Stone.

Many OF our people will remember
the family of E. l.. Sullivan, who,
several years ago, resided in this city,
Mrs. S., conducting q millinery store
and the husband working at odd jobs.
They moved, about six years ago to
Baker City, Oregon, where they have
ever since resided.
Aurilla Sullivan, bright, winsome
girl of about sixteen years, constituted
a part of the family while here, and
for several years graced the social
realm of Baker City. She suddenly
died, April 21st, of last year. while per-
forming an act of mercy in the city
hospital. She fell to the floor from a
stroke OF paralysis. from which she
never recovered, and her body was in
TERED in Mt. Hope cemetery near that
city.
A few days ago the family decided
upon removing the body to another
cemetery, and upon lifting the casket,
the workmen were astounded at its
extraordinary weight. Miss Sullivan,
while living, never weighed over 40
pounds, but the casket taken from the
ground weighed upwards of $50 pounds.
The parents ordered that the casket
be opened when the entire body was
found to have turned to stone. 1t is
unknown whether this petrifcation
has extended to other inmates OF that
city of the dead, or not, or whether the
pretrescent properties existed in the
soil of the grave, or existed in the body
at The time of sudden death.

Seven DAYS at Carnival.

All the transportation lines in the
Northwest are arranging to give spec
tally low rates to and from the Port
land Carnival, which runs from Sept.
Is to Oct. 10, and the excursion tickets
will be good for days. This is the
longest limit ever given OH such
tickets. and VIII give people ample
time to see all the sights connected
with the great exposition.
With two full military bands. a
militsfy tournament, a horse show,
athletic sports, exhibits OF mining,
agriculture, horticulture and manu-
featuring, a full midway, fireworks
and an army Of amusement attractions
the Carnival will be one of the greatest
events Of the season, and the admis-
sion fee is going to be only % cents,
10 cents for children.

A Pertinent Query.
EDITOR STANDARD:

EDITOR STANDARD:
What has become of the case of
young John Allen, son of ex-senator
John B. Allen who was reported to
have been lodged in the United States
penitentiary at McNeil's Island, q few
days ago? 1t was an item OF current
news in Sound papers that young AL.
len had been sentenced to fourteen
years imprisonment for highway rob-
berry committed in Alaska. Your own
paper called attention to this matter
at the time, and it was stated that
Allen was one of gang of thirteen
desperadoes arrested for various
crimes. This question is ali the more
pertinent, since it is now reported
that Allen is posing in Eastern WASH
lngton society circles. As . United
States prisoner, nobody but President
Mckinley could have pardoned and
liberated the young man. Is it pos.
sible that Senators sons are lowered
through political amenity with
charmed lives? CITIZEN.

A Fruit-Bearing Error.

1t is a matter OF municipal history
that the city authorities then in power
made strenuous effort, few years
ago, to widen Fourth street between
the draw at the east end Of Long
bridge and the theater building. Lib.
eral concessions were made to property
owners on the south side this street to
induce them to vacate barely twenty
feet of their frontage for the abiding
good OF posterity, but they could rot
see an inch before their noses, and so
held on with misery grip to their
little belongings to the disgust Of their
broad-minded neighbors.
But the tables are turning and those
same property owners are opening
their eyes to the fact that they are
huddled together in cow-lane instead
of broad and roomy thoroughfare.
OF course, that was before the day of
electric rapid transit and small-mind-
ed people contended that the street
was wide enough; and it was possibly
wide enough for the dickering retailers
of those days, but to say it is miser-
ably jammed-up affair now, does not
adequately express the situation, it is
simply public nuisance.
If truck is backed up against the
curbing for the purpose of discharging
or taking on load, that side of the
street between the sidewalk and rail-
way track is practically closed to traffic.
A member of one of the late excur-
sion parties from down the Sound ex-
pressed his establishment by asking
citizen the pertinent question, Why
was your beautiful Fourth street made
eighty feet wide in the residence dis
tricts ON either side of Main and con-
tracted to sixty feet in the heart of its
business center?"
At present there are but two brick
buildings to hinder the original plan
of widening the street, and no more
should be erected till n broad. minded
policy sees to it that the twenty-foot
strip between the above mentioned
points has been vacated by municipal
enactment, for the honor and fair name
of our capital city.
The foolish error of a dozen years
ago is now bearing uncanny fruit the
chickens of ill-omen are coming home
10 roost and nothing save worse and
more OF it" is in prospect for the mis-
cradle jam of Fourth street cow.lane.
When Kearney street in San Fran
cisco was widened by the strong arm
of municipal authority, block after
block OF stone and brick were demol-
ished to subserve the improvement. A
few property owners howled, but it
| was a case Of the greatest good to the
largest number, and the gigantic work
was accomplished.
Let Olympia be wise while the lamp
Of Reason holds out to burn.

Loss Of the Steamship Islander.

The steamship Islander was wrecked
off Douglass Island, by collision with
An iceberg, at $50 Thursday morning,
OF last week. She had left Skagway
Wednesday evening Aug. Nth, at 5
o'clock. The scene of disaster is ten
miles north OF juneau, off Douglas Is
land, and opposite the entrance to
Taku Inlet. The steamer was run
ming at a speed of Is knots, and just
before she struck had passed into a
dense bank OF fog. The shock did not
waken all the passengers, but she was
so badly torn by the icehoe that she
sank in about half All hour. AS she
went down there was an explosion,
said to have been due to the great
pressure of air in the compartments,
designed to keep the ship afioat in
just such an emergency. 1t is thought
by the rescued passengers, that this
provision led to an undue confidence
and loss OF life, as some of the passen-
gers we're told the ship could not sink
under any circumstances.
There were Isl crew and passengers
aboard when the Islander left Skag-
way. OF these 131 were saved in the
boats, leaving so as the number of
lives lost, besides the ship, cargo and
treasure, aggregating quite large
sum in value.
1t is confidently affirmed that the
pilot was drunk, and it is said, by
some, that the captain was likewise
under the influence of the ardent,
which accounts for his final end,
jumping from a liferaft and sinking
beneath the icy waters. 1t is thought
that sufficient time elapsed from the
time the steamer struck, to her final
plunge, to have beached her and
saved all the passengers and crew.
The survivors were landed on Douglass
Island and afterwards taken to Juneau
by the steamer Flossie. Many came
from the latter place to the Sound by
the steamers Queen and Farallon.
The dead, so far as known are ::
Mrs. J. Wilcox, Mrs. DR.. and Miss
Phillips, Seattle; Mrs. James Hamil-

Parasites Cause all Hair Troubles.

Nine-tenths of the diseases of the
scalp and hair are caused by parasitic
germs. The importance of this dis
covery by Professor Unna OF the Char
ity Hospital, Hamburg, Germany,
cannot be overestimated. It explains
why ordinary hair preparations, even
of the most expensive character fail to
cure dandruff; because they do not,
and they cannot, kill the dandruf
germ. The only hair preparation in
the world that positively destroys the
dandruff parasites that burrow up the
scalp into scales called scurf or dand-
ruff, is Newbro's Herpicide. In addi-
ton to its destroying the dandruff
germ Herpicide is also delightful
hair dressing, maing the hair glossy
and soft as silk.

If private war between individuals
has been prohibited, why should not
private wars between associations also
be? When the Steel Trust can ruin a
city by dismantling the mills which
furnish large part of that city's rea.

ton can ruin the fruit-growers OF an
entire State by refusing to permit
their fruit to be moved, it seems about

IT seems little strange that as
wide'awake newspaper as the Taco
ma News, should claim local credit for
the origin OF the term " You'll have to
hurry. 1t is small thing to claim,
at best, for anybody with the brain of
q toad might drop upon phrase that
would touch for moment the fancy
OF the crowd; but it was those enter
prising fakirs-the Quaker doctors
who originated the term to dissipate
the lingering hesitation of victims to
separate themselves from their hard
earned dollars in purchasing of worm
medicine. Nearly everybody could
feel the writing of tape-worms under
the florid eloquence OF the spieler, and
!" You'll have to hurry" was the myth
ical hair which decided the passing of
many hesitating dollar. 1.-THE visit
ing Elks at Tacoma have nothing bet.

A search of the junk shops in Seat.
tie, the other day, disclosed a large
amount of "stuff" that had been
stolen from local firms and unoccu.
pied buildings. The find consisted
mostly OF metal articles-copper and
brass predominating-all of which the
Fagans had bought for a song" from,
the light-fingered gentry, who are will.
ing to accept any price for their ILL
gotten plumber. The machine shops
had been the heaviest losers, about
$1,000 worth of the smaller parts OF
machinery being found, among which
were the eccentric bars and cams of an
engine which it cost 5000 to replace.
The junk dealers, it is said, have
agents, local and travelling, at different
points on the Sound, who buy for a
trifle almost everything presented fol
sale, and Immediately ship it to the
Seattle shops where its identity il
lost, if any effort is ever made for its
recovery. The exceedingly small
value placed upon old metal or Other
articles by the housewife, makes the
profit on junk thus purchased almost
equal to that upon articles Gifted

The N. Y. World of q recent date
says that, "Dr. Newell died amid pow
erty, in a small bedroom in q cheap
clearinghouse, and his body was res
cued from ignominious neglect in .
public morgue, by the creditable ac-
ton of Adj. Gen. Oliphant, who had
the casket draped in an American
flag, and removed to the state.house,
after which it was placed in the re-
ceiving vault. To complete the grim
irony of this mans life-story," says the
World, "there is possibility that the
body will be. buried in the potter's-
field, unless the State of New Jersey
intervenes."
As regarding the doctors alleged
poverty, we are not prepared to con.
trovert the statement, but the bare
idea of potter's-field becoming the
final resting-place Of a man with the
thousands of warm personal friends
and admirers of his great genius and
splendid record, is utterly preposter-
Gus, as luminary of the magnitude
of the World should we'll know. Then
again, such a statement is an asper-
sion upon his son.in-law, Lieutenant
Jordan, and his estimable daughter
the Lieutenant's wife. Mrs. Jordan
fairly idolized her father, and there
will be nothing wanting from her in
respect to his memory. The friends
of the deceased, in less degree, have q
right to complain of the inhuman
comments of the World.
1t is probably the absence of rela
tives and . want of immediate coop
Grafton of friends that has given op
portunity for display of misjudgmen'
by some newspaper cynic.
