DESPICABlE VANDALISM.
Aba ndoned Wretches Wreak Havoc in the
Methodist Church.

Methodist Church.
One of the most despicable actions the
HERALD has ever been called to chroni-
Gle, is the vandalism that happened to
the Methodist church Tuesday night.
Some miscreants forced an entrance to
the church by breaking a window lead
ing from the outer vestibule and pro-
ceeded to do what damage they could
do the contents of the house OF worship.
The windows Of the church were COW
cred with lace curtains, all of which,
except one, were cut, as though with a
knife; the large bible on the pulpit was
badly defaced; the glazed frame contain
ing the charter of the Epworth League
was broken, and the charter torn, and
an attempt was made to destroy the pipe
organ. The damage to the organ is
quite serious, and may be very expen-
sive to repair. The keys were torn loose
and the top twisted out Of shape.
The NJ. E. church is one of the most
popular in the city, and its pastor, Rev.
Chas. McDermoth is believed not to have
an enemy anywhere, so that the reason
for this action Of the vandals is shrouded
in mystery. One thing is quite certain,
that if detected, such wholesome ex-
ample will be made Of them as will in
sure the churches of Aberdeen from q
repetition for number Of years.

A MAN DROWNED
In the Wishkah River at an Early Hour This
Morning.

In the Wishkah River at an Early Hour This
Morning.
The launch Transfer went up the
Wishkah river few days ago with a
barge to bring down donkey engine
from A. F. Coats logging camp for use
on the new railroad that Mr.. Coats is
interested in, north of Montesano.
A. S. Coats took three men with him
to handle the engine, one of whom was
drowned about o'clock this morning, in
the Wishkah river, about nine miles
above Aberdeen. The four men were
seated on the scow coming down the
river, in tow of the Transfer, when the
scow suddenly struck snag, and one OF
the men was Jared overheard. Nothing
was heard from him, and, in the inky
darkness, nothing could be seen, and the
unfortunate man was undoubtedly
drowned.
Geo. Cameron, who was one of the
men ON the scow, was seen this morning,
and stated that the steamer tied up
shortly after the accident, and A. S.
Coats, who was in charge of the party,
went back to try to recover the body.
A party also left this city to search for
the body as soon as the news reached
here. The unfortunate man does not
seem to have been known by his COM
panions, the crew having been hastily
gathered for this trip. Dilligent inquiries
made by the HERALD lead to the belief
that the unfortunate man was quite
young, and that he was named Norman,
and had but recently came here from
Michigan.

A SAD DROWNING.
An Excellent Young Man Meets With Lonely
Death.

Harry Petrie, an estimable young man
well and favorahly known in Aberdeen,
was drowned in the Wishkah river about
two weeks ago, and his fate was un.
known until last Sunday.
Young Petrie was left in charge of
McHugh's logging outfit, about ten miles
above Grand Forks, when the camp
closed down few weeks ago, to look
after the property and care for the stock.
Last Sunday, Mr.. McHugh sent a man
up to assist him, and, when he arrived
at the camp nothing was to be seen of
Petrie. The doors were open, but all
signs indicated that nobody had been
there for some time. A visit to the
stables found the horses in starved
condition, and everything about the
camp looked as if it had been deserted.
Walking down to the river bank, the
man found the clothes of Petrie. and was
at once convinced that the young man
had gone in swimming, and was drowned.
He at once began to look along the river
for the body, and in about an hour it
was discovered lying in quite shallow
water, near the mouth of Parker creek.
Petrie had evidently gone in bathing
and had been seized with crampe, and,
being alone, was drowned.
Harry Petrie was but IS years of age,
and had been on Grays Harbor for the
past two years, making his home chiefly
with Mr.. and Mrs. II. B. Waldron. His
father is steward on a steamship plying
between Victoria, B. G., and Alaska.
The youth was of exemplary habits, and
had about $l75 of his savings on deposit
here at the time OF his death.
The manager of the company in whose
employ the father of the unfortunate
young man is, was notified by wire of
the drowning, and reply was received
to the effect that his vessel was due at
Victoria, yesterday. The body was
brought to Aberdeen, Tuesday evening,
and has been embalmed by Beardsley
Bros, and will be held until the arrival
of the father.
