A few days later ] met Davis on the
street and he came up and shook hands
with me cordially, he looked at me
strangely.
Ned" he began, perhaps you don't
know ii, but you have won that girls ever
lasting gratitude. if not to use a stronger
expression. for what you did that night.
II was a close rub, though. She told me all
about it before We got into Hampton.
1t seems that the old man il only her
guardian, after all. Her parents died when
she was a child end she has lived with him
ever since. He was determined that she
should marry old Bailey. who owns the
biggest half Of the road. but she objected.
and as she had not lived quite long enough
10 be her own mistrTss-she was a few
weeks short--she couldn't do any better
than to run away.
9TH danger is over now and she can
choose for herself. Better go up and see
her. Ned. She's stopping with a friend.
Here's her address"
II may be quite needless for me to state
that / took Charles advice and found time

to go and call upon Grace very soon after.
There was something in her brown eyes
when / left her that encouraged me to call
again and often.
While Jacob Henderson was still turning
the adjacent country upside down in search
Of her, l quietly married her.
The 'old man" was angry and profane
when at last he heard of IL and the part |
had played. but he passed over Grace's
personal fortune without a protest.
That was my last run on an engine, al
though strange to say, neither Nick nor
Charles Davis were discharged for the part
they took in my little elopement. They
never heard anything further regarding the
matter, but l was Immediately notified that
my services were no longer required"
So now Grace has all the affection that
once felt for my engine, and all that other
love besides. but it is not half what she
deserves.

once Pet I~nnOcently Aided the
TO Get the Cash.
It was the Buffalo detectives turn to tell
a story, relates the Rochester Post-Express.
He had listened to the experiences Of the
Rochester deputy sherins as the men sat
a-ound the big table in the sherin's Office.
This little incident he said, happened
when was stationed just outside Of Buffalo
in -. It's a h~ustllng town and when |
was on the trail there the citizens believed
In having everything up to date. But there
was one innovation that, although intro
duced, was afterwaTd looked upon with con-
tempt. and all on account Of a black cat.
The innovation was the burglar alarm.
The. local bank was the first institution TO
have one put in, and a large crowd gathered
about the workmen to watch the proceed
ings. Guess no burglar can get away With
that combination would remark one of the
bystanders. The office cat, a big, black
puss, stepped gingerly over the coils Of wire
and eyed with disapproyal the men as The
wire was strung through the courtroom, her
favorite l%ounging place. II the alarm
worked well with the bank the contractors
knew they would receive many orders from
private houses, stores, etc.
After the last touches had been given to
the anti-bank- breaking device the foreman
had the doors closed and an experiment
tried. One of the woTkmen opened a win
dow. ~Ting-a-ling! And the police Ctice
was Immediately notified by the ringing iell
that someone other than a deposition was
entering the bank. The foreman was notified
by telephone that the police connections
were perfect and the job was declared conf
pleted.
II was in the chiefs ONCE that night and
stayed late over the cigars. At l o'clock In
the morning. it was Sunday, the most in
fernal ringing you ever heard commenced.
III be smoked II the bank hasn't caught
a burglar with its alarm on the very first
night yelled the chief. We all hustled out
and in no time were in front of the bank.
There was no back entrance, but two men
we're stationed there 10 watch the windows.
Get ready with your guns, warned the
chief, and then out through a broken pane
Of glass that none had noticed until he
spoke, stepped the black cat. looking very
indignant.
ITS the blamed cat declared enc OF
the officers in disgust.
Anyway, it shows how II will work II
there are burglars commented the chief,
and the window was boarded up.
Next morning we found that the bank
had been busted 10 the tune OF SO, 900. Who
ever did the job was on hand when the wires
were put in and had noticed the cat. When
they made the break they had pussy IN q
bag and before the police could get there
had smashed a light Of glass and stood
ready 10 push her into view as the officers
arrived. The latter took It for granted
that a. was the cat. not having had ans
experience with burglar alarms. OF course
the connections were all broken by the TINT
the cat made her debut. and after the pc.
lice had boarded up the window the cracks,

A Philanthropic Physician Who Treats

While adverse 10 drawing the at

character, We feel more than justified
in overriding this objection with re-
spect to the announcement in this is
sue of the coming visit of DR.. Darrin
TO Walla Walla.
This far-famed physician requires
no Introduction as he has visited Wal
la Walla many times and has achieved
great reputation throughout the
Coast and the Northwest. He has
been prevailed upon, through the urg-
ent request of many in this vicinity,
to again visit Walla Walla. as they
could not afford the trip to consult
him in the large cities that he visits.
The doctor has at last consented to
return and Accommodate the atIllcted.
He will arrive in Walla Walla next
Friday. July Sd, and will have his
heaquarters in the Hotel State where
he can be consulted free.
He comes to us laden with teStl-
mOnials from throughout the whole
Northwest and the authentic reports
of some Of his cures seem nothing
short of miracles. So many thousands
are already acquainted with his mode
Of treatment. it seems necessary only
TO say that he uses little or no meul-
cine in the majority OF cases. ana per

There are few ills to which the hu-

peutic treatment and cases that nave
resisted the efforts OF ordinary phy-
sicians have yielded to his powers
These cases embrace almost every
kind of diseases. and. as said before.

of relief and cure while DR.. Darrln

Unlike other physicians who have

the doctors charges are extremely
moderate and reasonable, according

and he will not undertake any cases

Will Bring Seed Oysters to Toxic

WD. Tyler. who has been in the
east for the past two months. Re
turned Saturday to Tacoma. says the
Tacoma Ledger. He is an Old-time
resident Of this city, and was for
many years a leading and we'll known
business man. When the Tacoma
hotel was first opened he took charge
Of that hostelry and was prominent in
other branches of business. During
the past few years he has spent most
Of his time between this city and New
York and his family resided in the
east Mr.. Tyler now states that he
will remain in Tacoma and he eX-
poets to bring his family here this
fall He always has the greatest
faith in the future of this city and his
visits to the east only served to
strengthen his faith. Said he today:
Growth is Permanent.
There is no doubt of the perma-
ping point and manufacturing center.
The city is prospecting and while it's
growth is not especially rapid it is
steady and sure, and there is no dan
ger of receiving a setback. This is
a firm, stable city and one which will
continue to advance each year. The
natural advantages of Tacoma are not
to be disputed, but they should be
more extensively advertised. People
coming here and seeing for them
selves cannot help but be impressed,
but the majority of the people in the
east know but little of the city-not
near so much as they should, cOnsid-
ering its vast importance.
My trip to the east was largely in
connection with the Toxic Point Oyster
company, of which concern | am pres
ident. The company was organized a
short time ago. | went east to secure
seed for our oyster beds at TOkeland
Pacific county. 1t is our intention to
transplant eastern oysters at our beds
and grow them here. We will ship in
| the seed by the carload. Our first
shipment will consist of ten carloads
containing about $500 900 seeds, OF
between 100000 and 10000 900
Later we will bring them in larger
quantities. The Toxic oysters are be
coming exceedingly popular through
| the western states. not only on the
coast but also in the interior. This is
an industry in which Tacoma is es-
| pecially interested on accOut of the
| proximity OF the oyster beds and tht
| fact that this is the natural shipping
point"

YAKIMA FRUIT CROP.
Indications Are There Will be an
Abundance.

North Yakima. Wash.-The season
Of harvest has just practically begun
IN the Yakima valley, and from All
Indications ia looks as If there
will be unprecedented prosperity
among the farmers and orchardists.
Crops of all kinds are good, and
prices will be higher, as a rule, than
last year For the last two weeks
hay cutting has been under way, and
the biggest crop in the history OF
the valley will be harvested.
The acreage is larger this year
than it was last This will, of course,
increase the output, but the supply
will not begin to be sufficient if the
demand keeps up as it did last WIN
ter. Four times the amount OF hay
that was harvested here last year
could have been sold at big figures
had the product been here In con-
sequence of the big prices received
acreage increased almost one-fOurth
this spring, but the output will not
increase this much. for new alfalfa
fields will only yield half crop The
first year New hay has been selling
at 81 loose. while only a few weeks
The berry crop this year is large
Several thousand boxes of straw ber-
ries have already been sent to the
Sound markets, at good figures. This
crop has been increasing here every
year till the acreage now is very
large. Many Of the patches had their
first yield this year, and it would ne
cessarily be light.
Cherries have been a good crop
There will be a full crop OF pears
peaches and piums. 1t is reported b.
! County Fruit Inspector Beck that no
| over Is per cent. of an apple crOl
will be harvested this year, but h
| says that the apples will be much SUI
periOr in quality than those of las
year and better prices will be re
| ceived.
There will be about 40 per cent. o
the potato crop this year. This i
accounted for by the failure of thu
farmers to plant this year. The de
crease in acreage is about 60 pc
