More Trouble for Myer.

In the district court at Abilene Mrs.
]. w. Coulson has been awarded dam
ages in the sum of $4,000 against Ran
dali Myer. All the parties concerned
In this affair are prominent farmers.
1t was alleged by Mrs. Coulson that
upon the birth Of her last child Myer
said to a neighbor that its father was
not her husband. The statement made
by Myer was comprised in just 20
words. Therefore the judgment of the
court is that he shall pay $3.50 for each
word. But this isn't the end of it. A
man by the name of Teller, who was
alleged by Myer to be the father of
the Coulson child, has suit pending
against Myer for $4,000.

LUMBER MARKET
DECLINE IN PRICE OF LUMBER,
AND RISE OF LOGS
Renders Milling Improbable. Grays Harbor
MilImen Held q Meeting Yesterday. and
Decided to Run the Mills If Employees
Will Stand Part Of the Loss.

1t has been generally known that for
the past three months or more the lum.
Der market was in a demoralized condi-
ton, and the saw mill operators have in
some cases been selling lumber in the
California markets at less than the cost
OF logs and freight. There have been
several causes for this condition. Eastern
shipments were curtailed by shortage
OF GAYS, the labor strikes in eastern
ties, and the fact that number of new
mills in Montana, Nevada and Arizona
have entered that market with the adj
vantage over the coast mills over being
nearer. These facts drove the eastern
shippers into the California market,
with the inevitable result of Cutting it
and demoralizing prices.
On Friday afternoon the millmen of
Grays Harbor held a meeting, in the
Office OF the West 4 Slade Mill Co., to
consider the situation. 1t was argued
that to close down all the mills for few
months would clear out present stocks,
and result in good market when the
spring building season opened but some
were unwilling to close the mills, and,
disorganize the crews if it could pos sibly
be avoided, and it was finally decided to
make an effort to continue running if
the employees would bear portion OF the
loss, and stand temporary reduction of
25 cents day on their wages, with the
understanding that the present scale
would be resumed as soon as prices justi-
fed. incidentally it came out that
Grays Harbor mills were paying more
for logs and labor than were the mills on
the Columbia river and the Sound.
The matter of closing or running is
practically in the hands OF the employees.
If they accept the cut, the mills will try
to run. If not, they will close. Notices
were posted in all the mills Saturday
announcing that the new scale would
take effect tomorrow, and the action of
the workmen is awaited with interest by
every interest on the harbor. 1t is be-
ieved that the men will realize that the
condition is forced upon the proprietors,
and that the rs cents per day temporary
reduction will be decidedly preferable
to several months of entire idleness, and
accept the proposition.
In any event, conditions in Aberdeen
at present do not justify the apprehen-
sion that is felt in business circles over
this condition of the lumber trade. 1t
could scarcely have happened in better
time so far as this city is concerned.
For the next year the rebuilding of Aber-
deem will employ large amount OF labor
independent OF the mills, which fact will
do much to Offset the temporary lull in
our chief industry-and the best posted
lumbermen are agreed that the difficulty
is but temporary.

States Shipbuilding Company"


1t is important to remember that the
methods exposed in the shipbuiding
company investigation are but samples
OF the methods employed by the men who
have promoted all these great trusts that
prey upon the people, whose managers
cOnspire in restraint of trade, and defy
the laws OF the land. 1t is also import
ant to remember that the men who en-.
gage in these transactions are OF those
who claim that they are the "Christian
men to whom God in His infinite wisdom
has given the control of the property in
terests OF the country" 1t is important
to remember that these trustees of
God" and captains of industry" these
manipuIators OF what Receiver Smith
calls "an artistic swindle," and "whole-
sale plumber" were conspicuous in the
campaigns of 1896 and 1900 in the pre-
tended effort to preserve the "honor"
and the Integrity" of this government
and are equally conspicuous now in Civ
ing encouragement to the effort to repub
licanize the democratic party in the hope
that that organization may be used to
further their own base ends.

EDISON THEATER
Illustrated Song of Aber.
deem Fires, by Rev.
b. L. Aldrich,
This Week.

Among the attractions at the Edison
this week will be a song entitled "Aber-
deems Crucible OF Fire." by Rev. Byron
L Aldrich, sung by Gene King and illus.
trated by moving pictures of the recent
fires, and local scenes. There are "a
pictures, taken by Aberdeen photogra
piers, and, we believe the song will
prove the best drawing card this popular
theater has yet presented. The following
is the song:
ABERDEEN's CRUCIBLE OF FIRE.
A city lay meath Western skies, where
tides OF ocean rolled,
Where far Pacific laved her piers and
ships were built that burdens bore
OF forests far away and turned them into
shining gold.
Her streets were rife with bounding oy
and life on Wishkah' g teeming sho 9:
Our crucible. tried Aberdeen.
The keen saws rang, the busy mills m; do
music with their roar,
In our fair city by the sea, which is ~
all, Grays Harbor Queen.
CHOkt
Upon the sea our harbor queen,
Beneath the glorious Western skies,
Our fire.purged smould'ring Aberdeen
Shall from her blackened ruins rise.
o let us build city here,
Again beneath the Western skies,
And though the fire ragged once again
And left the streets desert drear,
We still shall build with might and
main,
We still shall bravely persevere.
One morning, when the sun rose clear,
the fire bell fiercely rung,
The peoples joy was changed to fear, at
night they roamed the dreary waste.
Another morning came, each face wore
smiles, and every tongue
Repeats, Lets build city here" and
one more suited to our taste.
Upon the ashes of our pride.
But Woe! The fend appeared once more
and finished what was left;
And Lo! They smiled again and said,
"We'll build, whatever may betide."

THE VERMONT PHOENIX BRATTLEBoRO, FRIDAY, JDECEM7
A FRUITFUL VISION.
How the Fresh Air Movement BEGAN In
the Pennsylvania Mountains.

There rises before me the wrath of n
Nihase church in the far-off mountains
ol pennsylvania. II Is Sunday morning
AT midsummer In the pulpit a young
clergyman is preaching from the text;
lnasmuch as We did 1t unto one of these
my brethren, even the least We did it unto
me The sun peeps through the win
dows where climbing roses nod. In the
TAN naples dove is cooling; the drowsy
hum of the honeybee is on the air. But
ne reckS not of these, nor of the peaceful
uay' Ills soul has seen vision of hot
ana stony streets, of squalid homes of
hard-visaged, unlovely childhood of man
Kind made in His image twisted by want
ana ignorance into monstrous deformity:
ana the message he speaks goes straight
TO the heart of the plain farmers on the
benches; His brethren these. and steeped
In the Stun! They gather round him af-
ter the service, their hearts burning with
in them.
| see him speeding the next day toward
the great city, a messenger of love and
pity and help. l see him return before
the weeks end, nine starved urchins
clinging to his hands and the skirts of
his coat the first Fresh Air party that
went out of New York. twenty-seven
years ago next summer. / see the big
hearted farmers take them into their
( homes and hearts. l see the sun and the
summer wind put back color in the wan
cneek, ana life in the Shrunken and
starved frame. | hear the message of
one of the little ones to her chums left
| behind in the tenement: IL can have two
/ pieces of pie to eat. and nobody says
nothing if | take three pieces of cake" ;
| and | know what 1t means to them
! Laugh? Ies laugh and be glad. The
world has sorrow enough. Let in the
sunshine where you can, and know that IT
means life to these, life now and a glimpse
of the hereafter. l can hear it yet, the
sigh of the tired mother under the trees
in Twin Island our Henry street chill
dren's summer home "If heaven is like
this, | don't care how soon | GO"
For the sermon had wings; and whittier
soever it went blessings sprang in its
track. Love and justice grew; men read
the brotherhood into the sunlight and the
| fields and the woods, and the brother
| hood became real. | see today Willard
Parsons, the minister, no longer so young,
sitting in his Office in the Tribune
building, still planning Fresh Air holidays
for the children of the hot, stony city.
| But he seeks them himself no more. \
/ thousand churches, charities, kinder
tens. settlements, a thousand preachers
and doors of the brotherhood, gather them
in. thousand trains of many crowded
cars carry them to the homes that are
waiting for them wherever men and wom-
en- with warm hearts live. The message
has travelled to the farthest shores, and
nowhere in the Christian world is there
a place where it has not been heard and
needed. Wherever it has there you have
seen the heart of man laid bare; and the
sight is good.

THE SANFORDS

The Sanford Company will repeat
The Pace That Kills" tonight at the
Orpheum and judging from the man
ner in which the play caught on last
night they should have a packed house.
The play is full of comedy and ex-
citing climaXes. A hot horse race is
a feature and at one time there are
no less than three horses on the stage.
The players are all happily cast and
give a very smooth and we'll balanced
performance. The scenery is good and
some very swell gowns are worn.
On Monday and Tuesday nights the
Sanfords give their farewell perform
ances at which time they will give the
thrilling drama Northern Lights
