Death Of Miss Spencer.

Many friends mourn the death of
Miss Claudia Spencer, daughter of
Mrs. Belinda Spencer of North All
tanum avenue, which took place at
9 o'clock Sunday morning, Sept. II,
1905.
Miss Spencer was about 81 years of
age. She had been suffering for
some time past. and 1t was thought
a summer spent ON the Sound would
be beneficial to her, but she returned
a month ago very little better. Last
week she was taken to st. Elizabeth 3
hospital, where she sustained an
operation. Saturday night she began
to sink rapidly and Sunday morning
passed away.
Miss Spencer was a member of the
Methodist Episcopal church all her
life and had been a faithful teacher
in the Sunday school here for several
years. She leaves a mother and
brother, Lester Spencer, besides q
sister in the east.
Miss Spencer and her mother had
been inseparable, and many sympa-
thizing friends mourn with the
mother for the loss OF one who cannot
be replaced.
The funeral was held Monday af-
ternoon from the residence. and was
conducted by DIR. Henry, interment
following In Tahoma cemetery.

ranchers. We say ranchers because
they have the fruit. hops, stock, etc.,

had. Let each try to take at least

ALMA ALBION GAME.
College Lost To the Methodists on Davis
Field, Saturday.

The last home game of the season was
played with Albion Saturday, resulting
in victory for the visitors by a score
of TO 4. The game was Albion's on
errors, the home team failing TO hang
together at critical times, and allowing
Albion TO bring in the scores that won
the game. From the number of hits
and strike-outs on both sides ii is hard
TO see why Alma did not win but it was
costly errors that lost the game. Striker
for Albion twirled a good game but
Alma pounded him easily and touched
him for ten hits. Johnson pitched gilt
edged ball, striking out five men and
allowing but four hits.
