Cresco public schools commenced
their fall term on Monday, Aug. 29th,
with the usual full attendance. Three
months vacation makes it a pleasure
to the pupils tn get at their studies
again. We wish them after their
long rest to make good use of their
time and to be as eager in their studies
as they have been in their sports.
The advent of a big circus is always
the occasion of much excitement tOthe
ubiquitous small boy and Of consider
able interest to the older folks. The
coming Of Norris s. Rowes circus to
our city last Monday, or rather its ar
rival on Sunday, drew forth many
people to watch the building Of the
miniature city Of white tents. Early
Monday morning large crowds had
gathered along the streets to witness
the parade which was good and the
afternoon performance drew like mag
ic, thousands of people, young and
old, eagerly watching the marvellous
feats that we're performed in the two
rings. The evening drew out a fail
lsized crowd who were Equally enthusi'
astic. Thruout the show is good
, clean and respectable and should they
again visit Usage, they are already
], assured of large crowd.-Osage Press

and a host of other permanent i'm
prOvements that are pushing the city
ahead at bewildering speed. Realizing
that additional accommodations are
needed for the paid fire department
and council the fire and water commit
tee last night reported favorably on the
erection of a new two story brick, 50
by 1870 feet, on the vacant lot adjoin-
ing the present city hall.
The proposed building will give the
required room needed by the fire de-
partment, besides housing all the city
offices, water department. city attor-
ney, city engineer, chief of police and
chief of the fire department. and pro-
viding a larger and more commodious
city Jail.
When the report was read Mclean
said he was opposed to the council
adopting it in it's entirety as he doubted
very much whether the city's finances
were in such condition as to warrant
the expenditure of from $4,000 to $780,

TAILOR KILLED BY TRAIN
A. w. StinceI Run Down While Cross
ing TrestIe.

CHEHALIS, April 13.-Sunday eve
ming about o'clock, A. w Stincel, a
we'll known merchant tailor of Cheha-
lis, was struck by Northern Pacific
freight train No. IS en- route from
Portland to Tacoma, and killed in
stantly. Just how the accident hap
pened is hard to determine but it is
thought that Stincel and his wife. who
was walking with him. did not hear the
train in time to get off a trestle over
Dillenbaugh creek, where they were
caught.
Mrs. Stincel was knocked from the
trestle and fell a distance of about ten
feet. She was badly hurt, but may
recover. It is thought she is inter-
nally injured.
Stincel had lived at Chehalis thirteen
years, and was respected by all. He
was member of several beneficiary
and fraternal societies. The remains
were brought to Chehalis and are at
the Sunder undertaking parlors. No
blame attaches here to the trainmen,
as the track is clear for half a mile each
way and it is thought that the acct
dent might easily have been avoided
by the victims.

UNDER SUSPICION.
Three Fast Yachts Sailing Through
Suez Canal

London Nov. PA telegram from
Port Said says: There IS considerable
interest here i'm The movement of three
fast yachts, the FiFoneutiua, Catarina
and Emerald. which have just ira
Versed the canal to SIez.
The Fiorintina IS owned ny Count dl
Nollai Of Marseilles the Catarina be-
longs to the firm Of Camper & NichOl-
son Of GOsVOTt, and the Emerald, a tur-
hine, belong 10 Sir Christopher Fur
ness. The latter however. is not on
board, and il appears that both the
Emerald and Catarina have been char
tered by individuals whose names the
agents refuse to divulge at the special
request of the charterers.
The Catarina and Emerald have been
in the Mediterranean since Nov > and
respectively. The Catarina's avowed
destination is India. The Emerald was
at Jaffa Nov. 80.
FurnesS. Witty q Co. say the Emer-
aid was chartered FOR a pleasure cruise
and emphatically deny the suggestion
that the charterers were either Russian
or Japanese, or in any way connected
with people OF those nationalities.
The FiOrentina flies the French flag
and tGe Caterina and Emerald fly the
British flag. The mission Of the yachts
is a mystery, but il is suspected that
the boats have some connection with
the Russian admiralty and that they
viii precede Vice Admiral VoelkeHsam' $
division of the second Pacific squadron
to explore the reefs in the Suez canal
and around Shadewau island.
At the request of the Russian officers
the police regulations have been relaxed
sufficiently 10 allow bumboats along
side the warships.
