Friends of the man in Puyallup claim
that he is crazy. They say that he has
been known to remove all his clothing and
challenge all Corners to foot race, and
that he also has a mania for old-style
pistols. which were often found in his
possession. Officers, however, do not
consider his plea of insanity, but are glad
that the man is to be incarcerated in
the penitentiary, during which time, at
least, they will not be bothered with him.
The crime for which Campbell was
sentenced was the robbery of the room
of Miss McNair. a Puyallup school teach

Importance of Fruit

The hest fruit in the world, for health
and complexion, is the apple. Eat a
juicy apple at night. There is no better
remedy for constipation; therefore, no
better cosmetic for the skin.
Next to the apple the cranberry is i'm
nortant as an article of diet. 1t cleanses
the blood and is most wholesome.
Oranges, too, are good, if taken in the
morning.
Many persons cannot eat oranges Ill
the evenings without suffering all night
az it gives them dyspepsia. But they
can take the fruit with IMMUNITY early
in the day.
The two most important cosmetics to
make a good complexion: Make it

become.

a SAD CHRISTMAS DEATH.

Christmas morning, between 4:45 ano
. O'Clock. Mrs. Magdalena Webbcr met
a sad, almost sudden, death She and
her husband, Adam Weber, were walk
ing from their home, west OF town. to
early mass, coming down the railroad
, track. AS they were near the switch
yard, train was noticed coming from
the west, and the glare of the headlight
made the train seem farther away than
it really was Mr. Weber was walking
GA the north side OF the track and she
on the south side. Just after crossing
the cattlc-guard, she attempted to cross
over to her husband and, in doing
so, was struck by the pilot-beam
just as she was stepping off the bal
last. She was cut and considerably
bruised about the head and body, and
was made unconscious. She was taken
to Y. Highberger's home, where she died
early in the forenoon.
MIR. Weber carried lantern. and.
though the engineer saw Mr.. Weber. he
neigher whstled or rung the bell because
he saw him step from the track The
fireman saw the accident and the train
stopped at the depot, when the report
was made. DR.. Simmons, the Missouri
Pacific surgeon here, did all he could,
but to no avail Mrs Weber was
5S years old and feeble. Mr. Wcbher,
when leaving the track, turned his face
to the north, to avoid the smoke and
dust, supposing Mrs Webher to he at
his side, and learning nothing OF her ac-
cidcnt until the whole train had passed
by
Deceased was good. conscientious

Sweetest Things.

The sweetest flowers are the flowers
that bloom
In the busy haunts of life;
To fill the air with their sweet perfume,
In the midst of the toll and strife
The sweetest songs are the songs we sing
In the ceasless rounds of care;
Where sad hearts thrill with the cheer
they bring
To the weary toilers there.
The sweetest JOY is the joy to give
OF the best our lives afford;
And lust to trust each day we live,
In the fullness of the Lord.

WHEN zoZoKA COMES.
Ways Told for the Benefit of
Our Young Readers.

Near the river mouth three children
small American girl and her brother.
Suddenly the Indian stood up, and shad-
ing his eyes with his hand, gazed long
toward the southwark. "Zozoka comes"
he said; plenty fish,"
"Where?" cried the white children,
Eagerly scanning the sea and sky.
His wife, too; it is good" said the
indian. The Great Spirit smiles on my
people. He sends Zozoka to tell us
that we shall have big catches of fish,
all We can eat and plenty to dry for the
cold moons"
The children could see two birds COM
ing from the southwark. Fascinated,
they watched till over their heads swept
pair of magnificent ospreys. "Fish-
hawks" they cried in the same breath.
"Zozoka," said the Indian lad. "They
go to their old home up the river"
A CLEAN of silver showed just beneath
the rivers blue. Like shot the fish
hawk dropped and was half buried in the
water before he rose, holding fish in
lis strong talons.
Mounting with few graceful sweeps
of his splendid wings, which spread over
five feet, he seated himself on his favor
lite branch, and tearing the fish into
pieces, devoured it with great relish.
For fortnight this devoted couple
spent many busy hour searching for
material to repair their home. A few
rods from the bank was a dead tree, and
| Mr.. Fish-hawk decided that some of its
branches would be exactly right fos
