In these days Of strife between two
great political parties we must remem-
ber that after all we are just band of
brothers here on earth, travelling FROM
the cradle to the grave. We live side
by side, our children attend the same
school and after the smoke of the bat
tie has cleared away, we will still be
friends and neighbors. Let the hitter

and we get out Of it full measure OF
sorrow. Let us in our little city live

Cut Glass May Go Up.

NEW YORK, June 1S.-The Nation
al Association of Cut Glass Manufac-
turers will hold its annual convention
at the Astor house this afternoon. One
of the most important matters to be
considered by the convention will be
the adoption of a new schedule of
prices for cut glass which has been
approved by the committee on prices
appointed at the last annual cOnven-
ton. There has been considerable dis
satisfaction among the cut glass man.
ufacturers in recent years owing to the
fact that the prices of cut glass have
steadily declined until cut glass ar
ticles sell for less than half their
value ten years ago. 1t is expected
that the new scale of prices will be
adopted, which would mean a consid-
cradle increase in prices. J. d. Bergen,
of ]. D. Bergen I Co.. of this city, is
president of the association, and w.
H. Lum is treasurer.

Death of a Brave Man,

LONDON, June 1S.-The death is re-
ported at the age of seventy-nine of
Rear Admiral John Blytheasea, V. c.,
c. B., C. l. E. In connection with
the rear admirars death it is recalled
how he won his Victoria cross by an
act of magnificent daring. While
serving in the Baltic during the Rus
sian war, on board the Arrogant, with
the assistance of one of the crew he
cut out the Russian mails from the
care of a strong escort and returned
to his ship, making his prisoners row
him aboard Shortly afterwards he
was promoted to post captain, being
then the youngest of that rank in the
British navy.

CASE UP IN SUPERIOR COURT TODAY
WIFE CLAIMS CONSPIRACY BE.
TWEEN HUBBY AND HIS At
IoRNEYs AND FIGHTS.

The case of ]. G. Miller and wife
against Minnie Fewster, to oust Mrs.
Fewster from a 14-acre tract OF land
near Bolles Junction, which Mr.. Miller
alleges he bought from Mr.. Fewster a
couple of years ago, was taken UP IN
the superior court this morning. Ihe
suit is a complex affair and involves
the purchase of land by Mr.. Fewster
before his marriage, the sale after the
knot had been tied, a rather exciting
domestic experience, a suit for divorce
and the flight of Mr.. Fewster from
Walla Walla to escape being served
with a summons in the divorce suit
brought by Mrs. Fewster.
The land in question was bought oy
Mr.. Fewster a few months before MS
marriage. on October %, 1903, and the
question involved in the case is wheth-
or the land was separate or community
property. Fewster sold the tract 10
Mr.. Miller. but Mrs. Fewster did not
sign the deed.
