Where Tracy "ls At"

Last Wednesday afternoon the
News heralded to the world that
was in a logging camp within six Ia 4
of Tacoma. Thirty minutes thereafte.
the Seattle "P. l." posted a bulletin to
the effect that Tracy held upa household
in Roslyn, just over the mountains in
Eastern Washington. At the same hour
the authorities at Salem, Oregon, were
dead sure that Tracy was in the neigh
borhood with an earned posse," intend
ing to open up the entire prison and
give few hundred convicts their free
dom. At least half dozen other locali-
ties in the state were dead sure that they
had Tracy-and all of the afternoon of
Wednesday. The distance from Roslyn,
Washington, to Salem, Oregon, is about
200 miles, and the breadth of country
represented by these various publica-
tons is at least 100 miles. 1t therefore
follows that Tracy must have been in
seven different places" scattered over
territory containing "twenty thousand
square miles," at the same moment
and we haven't doubt that there are
thousands of people in Washington and
Oregon who would believe that Tracy
would be able to perform this ubiquitous
feat.-Seattle Times.

SEATTLE, July

SEATTLE, July -, l9O-.
Week ending July q, 1902:
The past week was cool during the
fore part, but the temperature gradually
increased until it became very hot at
the close Maximum temperatures OF
IS degrees and upwards occurred in the
western section on the 10Th, and of 100
degrees and upwards in the eastern sec
ton on the Goth. There were light to
heavy showers on the l4th and 18th in
the western section and light showers
in some localities of the western section.
The showers were OF benefit to grow
ing vegetables, but the high wind and
rain damaged considerable hay. The
remainder OF the week was fine haying
weather, and fair crop was secured.
The heavy wind storm OF the l4th
inst. greatly damaged fruit all over the
state, but especially in the eastern sec
ton, in Spokane, Whitman, Adams and
Walla Walla counties, where it was one
OF the heaviest winds ever known, reach
ing a velocity of 80 to 30 miles per hour.
Many fruit trees were broken or up
rooted, and great many apples were
blown off. Fall wheat and barley were
badly broken down and thrashed out in
all of the counties named, although
there were some localities where the
damage was very slight. Spring wheat
was not badly injured by the wind
storm, but will probably be shrunken
some by the hot, drying winds at the
close of the week. Hops have been BEN

NORLD-FANOUS ACROBATS
Ringing Bros. Present an Entirely New Com
pany OF Gymnasts this Year


The superb company of acrobats
which Ringing Brothers have secured
| for their circus this year, illustrates, as
never before, the magnificent possibl-
tiles of the human form in the absolute
perfection OF physical development. Not
only are these performers the greatest
opponents OF acrobatism that the world
has ever produced, but they are hand
some, superbly-developed men and
women whose lives are q tribute to the
| value of modern athletic training. In a
company embracing so many star artists
| it is difficult to individualize, and yet
there are many among these great per-
| formers whose exceptional skill entities
them to distinctive mention. At the head
of the list is the famous Nelson family.
This giant company of acrobats en-
braces ten men, women and children.
and in its intricate novelty as well as
the ease with which the most difficult
and thrilling evolutions are performed,
it has no peer in the wide world. The
costuming of this great act is also a
matter of comment and unstinted praise.
New features that will also attract at
tention when the show exhibits in North
Yakima Saturday, Aug. 16, are the per-
formances of the Roberts Family, the
exceptionally clever acrobatic feats of
the Pettits and the Dibolan Brothers
and the beautiful posing of the far-fam-
ed kawalskis. Genera and Theol pre-
sent an astonishing exhibition of grace
full and difficult contortion, in company
with the great Ethardo, who occupies
the correspondent stage. Scores OF other
acrobats and gymnasts combine with the
wor DIS greatest riders, the worlds clev-
crest clowns and the worlds most skill
full specialists to make this the most
remarkable exhibition ever organized.
A gorgeous horse ballet, an immense
menagerie, which offers as special feat
ures the only giraffe known to be alive
and 80 big and little elephants; train
ed animal department with marvelously
educated bears, seals, dogs, ponies and

Coffee and Its Uses.

In view OF the fact that the cereal food
companies have for couple OF years
been flooding the newspapers of the
country with advertisements showing
up the alleged baneful effects of drink
ing coffee, it may be of interest to HER
AID readers to know what science has
discovered in this respect. 1t would
seem from the following that our favor
lite morning beverage is pretty good
article to have in the house and that the
so-called food drinks can in no sense
take its place.
When there are in community cpl
denies of typhoid fever, cholera, cry
sipelas, scarlet fever and and the vari-
Gus types Of malarial fever, which are
transmitted almost entirely through the
medium of food and drink, coffee is a
valuable agent, and may be used as a
drink instead OF water.
1t is valuable agent in assisting in
the digestion of food. and aids the blood
in taking up more nourishment than it
would without it.
Itquickens the circulation OF the blood
and respiration.
1t is also stimulating and refreshing
(due TO the caffeine il contains)
In tiding over nervousness in emer-
gencies it is a sovereign remedy.
As stimulant and caloric generator
in cold weather it is 100 percent ahead
of whisky or other liquors.

usefulness in the sick chamber

Louis XVIII. of France, while rectt
Ing an ode of Horace to his chamber
lain one day, suddenly stopped to take
q pinch Of snuff and was annoyed to
find that he had left the box in his
bedroom.
With a low bow the chamberlain
handed him his W box, and the mon
arch took a good pinch from it, after
which he recited the long ode to the
end. He then said to the chamber
lain:
"You have a poor niece, I believe
Well, 1 like your snuff SO well that l
propose, as a token Of gratitude to
you, to give her the right to open a toy
store in the Tuileries. l will sign the
necessary papers this evening"
Thanks to this royal grant, the cham
berlain's niece conducted a small but
profitable business until her death, in
1859. Her little store then became the
property of the state, and ever since it
has been rented for about 400 francs a
year.
Thus the French republic Of today
owes a portion Of its income to the
fact that Louis XVIII. appreciated
good snuff.
