River View.

The Fourth at River View will be a
gala day, and will be celebrated in the
true American style. Music and dancing
and all the amusements will be ready to
give pleasure during the day. and at
night there will be grand display of
fireworks on the grounds and from the
top of the high chute. Roman candles.
big sky rockets. mines, pin wheels, bal
looms, frizzy why's, fire snakes, and
many other novelties or pyrotechnics
will be displayed. and the exhibition will
be well worth seeing. Aside of these
things to amuse, River View is a de-
1ightful place TO spend hot day. The
afr is cool and bracing, and seated un-
der the shade of the trees the visitor
can find what true comfort is. The
steamers will leave here tomorrow at
10 am, 2:15 and 6:45 pm, and those
who go down on the last trip will arrive
at the View In plenty of time to see
the pyrotechnic display. Stops will be
made at Alexandria in all trips.

Death Of Mrs. r. 5. Taylor


Mrs. Taylor, wife OF Postmaster F. S.
Taylor, died on Saturday evening, Dec.
%, at 1870 o'clock, at her home, OF can
Ger of the breast. The cancerous af-
lection developed about five years ago,
and all that medical skill could do, to
affect cure was done, but without
avail. Mrs. Taylor spent nearly all
last summer in hospital at Wenat.
chez returning to her home some six
weeks ago, since which time she has
failed rapidly. She was long and pa
tent sufferer.
Mrs. F. S. Taylor was born at St
Johns, Conn, Oct. 1858, and came to
Leavenworth in July, 1898, where she
has resided ever since. She leaves be-
bind besides host of friends to mourn
her loss, husband.
The funeral services were conducted
at the Congregational church by Rev
w. S. Bixby, who preached an ex'
ceedingly appropriate sermon on; the
deceased.
She was buried on Monday, Dec. 30,
in the cemetary west OF town. The
services at the grave were conducted
by the Companion Court =of:the For,
esters, of which she was member.
The beautiful burial service Of the Or
der was read A large concourse Of
sorrowing friends followed the remains
to the last resting place.

The PLAY Monday Night

A fairly good sized house greeted the
Pierce Kingsley company. on Monday
night at the opera house. With the
exception Of Mr.. Kingsley himself, who
took the character of the convict tramp
in the play of 1.-THE Convict's Daugh,
ter" the characters were all stiff AID
amateurish In their acting. However,.
We cannot always expect high class
of actors to visit this town.
Those who were present on Monday
night are not TO complain, as they had
the benefit of two shows. While the
Kingsley company was trying to enter
tain the audience at one end of the
house couple of hobos al. the rear end,
under the influence OF fire, water, were
doing a few side stunts. at dancing,
causing considerable, hilarity, at that
end, and causing those in the front end
to do some rubbering in order to keep
posted as to what was going on behind
them. ov.. -. ..f...... 10 4; t-s

$. H. PILES. U. $. SENATOR

Jig The political atmosphere about
Olympia was cleared up last
week by the election of Mr..
Piles of Seattle to the United
States senate for six years.
After faithful and honest de-
votion to the interests of the
state of Washington for six
years Senator Addison G.. Eos
ter will step down and out after
the fourth of March. His defeat
for reelection was accomplished
by combination between Mr..
Sweeney of Spokane and Mr..
Piles. The former was the mil
lionaire mine owner aspirant for
senatorial honors. His candi-
dacy brought such a horde of
political leeches, grafters and
boodlers to Olympia as has not
r..b been seen there in many years,
Even Mr. Sweeney had his
stomach turned and his banker
ing for political honors cooled
when he was brought face to
face with this wolfish and hun
.'gry lot of boodlers. According
to his own story, as told in an
=. interview: They were altogether
too ravenous and hungry. They
=, wanted too much. Each and
K every one wanted enough to go
~ home and start national bank
= and be respectable. But he says
IL he disappointed them. He would
not open his barrel. He also
= says they were the most disap
T. pointed lot he ever saw. He
u b. concludes, on the whole, that
= politics are cleaner and purer.
39Ta::aaiiss We reached that conclusion
when we read his announcement
=. thathe was ont tot politics. From
y, his published statement we also
=. loeame to the conclusion that if

The Kennebec Drive.

The last Of the Kennebec drive for the
year passed Augusta, Saturday, with the
exception Of very few logs that were
sent down Sunday morning. The sum-
ner has been an excellent one for the log
drivers, and the season has been finished
between IS and 20 days ahead of last year.
Although the number of logs that has
passed down the Kennebec cannot be
stated d6ni ely, it is believed that the
drive is somewhat smaller than year ago.
The season has been ate ded with a
good flow of water, the thug which is
essential to coed progress in Log driving.
and this, with The fact that the drive is a
somewhat smaller one. doubtless accounts
for the difference in time.
The work Of the river drivers on the
Keanebec, as elsewhere, has become a
work about as systematic as can we'll be
imagined Starting on the upper Kenne-
bee and the Dead river regions the last OF
March or the first of April, the future
lumber starts on Its long journey to the
mills along the lower Kennebec.
The first boom that is met is at Scion,
where the work OF gathering and sorting
the various logs begins. Then comes
Madison. where the process of taking out
continues, and where no small numbers of
logs are landed for the Unsuitable Grea,
Northern plant at that place Then comes
Skowhegan, Shawmut and Fairfield, where
the pulp and saw mills take up the logs
belonging to these plants, and then Water
vile with its Hollingsworth & Whitney
plant comes in for its share. Five Mile
Island boom is the next plant after leaving
Watervlle, and it is here that the logs are
held up and let GU; as they are wanted
farther down.
At Whitney brook the Augusta Lumber
Co. gath up their logs and regulate the
sending of them over the dam for their
mill, while at the dam is the boom of the
Augusta Paper Co. Below Augusta are
the Halowell and Browns booms, where
they are RATED for the mills father down.
