San Erancisco's Rsincarnation.

For the past six months the Fast
has been submerged with books, pic
lures and other matter relative to the
San Francisco disaster. tits now time
to tell the great story OF its rebuilding
Every person in that community has q
deep personal interest in the rapid re-
construction of San Francisco. II il
of the greatest importance that The
people OF the East should become
acquainted with the wonderful worl
OF reconstruction that is now in pro
gress, and to note what has beer
accomplished in the six months fol-
lowing the fire.
The FIRST comprehensive publication
on this subject was found in q specia
edition of the San Francisco Examiner
of Sunday. October 2lst. This specia
edition consisted of $50 pages, and il
expressly designed for Eastern mailing
to persons who have heard of the dis
as,er, but are unfamiliar with The
work OF reconstruction, Every copy
mailed East will do little towards
correcting distorted opinions.

A Close Call.

Mr.. George C. Israel arrived at his
home accompanied by his wife, from
Butte, Montana. where she was called
on the 18th inst, by telegram an.
nouncing his serious illness. Mr.. I.
was attacked at his hotel by an afrec.
ton of the heart, caused he thinks,
primarily by a physical arrangement
to which he is subject, and incidentally
to the high elevation and rarefied air
OF bis new surroundings. An entrance
was effected to his room at 4 O'Clock
in the morning, from the alarm cre-
ated by his deep breathing aud groans,
and the timely aid OF several doctors
afforded temporary relief until the
arrival OF his wife. She at once has.
tened his departure from the danger.
Gus conditions, against the doctors
protest, but wisely as the sequel proved.

hy the death of members, who, though
poor men and women i'll the main, left
their families we'll provided for. There
were also interesting musical features
IN connection with this occasion. Miss
May kreider's instrumental efforts
were listened to with considerable
interest. The ladies' drill, under the
direction Of Mrs. ii. q. Richardson,
was a very interesting and amusing
part OF the programme. The false
iaces ON the backs of ladies heads
furnished much merriment. Mr.. Tate
at the final wind up said he had in
dulged in much adulation OF the De-
gree OF Honor, but he was compelled
to admit it was the most two-faced
crowd he had ever met All departed
feeling happy over the great treat
which had been provided for the
delectation of those present.

Death Of Mrs. c. 7. MAYNARD.

Mrs. Catherine Troutman Maynard,
the Oldest pioneer of Seattle, died in
that city last Saturday. She was born
in Kentucky about 30 years ago. At
the age of Is she moved to Pike
county, Ill.,, and was married to Israel
Broshears. They lived there abou. II
years till lS49. when they came across
the plains to Oregon. Her husband
died on the plains, OF cholera, and Dr..
ID. S. Maynard happening along cared
for him and his family. He drove the
team belonging to the widow the
remainder of the journey, arriving as
Olympia Sept. %, 1850. In January,
1858, DIR. Maynard and Mrs. Broshears
were married, Rev. Benjami f. Close
officiating. Soon after they moved to
Seattle, then known rs Alki. She
helped her husband in his store and
assisted her husband in his medical
practice. The same year she and her
husband took trip up the Duwamish
river to Black river and Lake WASH
ing.On, and was the first white woman
to see that magnificent sheet of water.
She named Cedar river, a tributary
still bearing that name. Mrs. May.
nard's greatest friend was Princess
Angelina. DR.. Maynard was for a few
years Indian Agent and lived a while
at Port Madison, but returned to Sc.
attic, where DIR. Maynard died in 1873
The remainder OF her life she lived a,
Ellensburg, Medical Lake and in Sc.
attle-the last ten years being in the
latter city. Her life history has many
incidents connected with pioneer his.
tory, one Of which was q trip from
Port Townsend to Seattle, at great
peril, to warn the people of the attack
OF Leschi. She founded the first read.
ing room in Seattle, and was associat.
ed with the fret charitable work in
the then Territory of Washington.

Paul Schmidt. son Of Mr.. Louis
Schmidt, OF the Olympia Bre wing Co,
sustained loss of the tips of two
fingers OF his right hand by having
them caught by q cable of the elevator
Monday, while he was oiling the ma.
chinery. The injury is painful but
viii not be attended with serious re-
suits.
Meddlesome boys, and probably
some of them Of mature growth, have
been guilty OF malicious damage sew
eral nights this week in cracking and
breaking up the cement floor and
>id' walk OF the new Chambers build
ing. What satisfaction can be found
in such FRANKS is beyond human in
telllgence to fathom.
Charles Soelner, a woodchopper, was
found dead in his shack, about three
miles from town, at 1 o'clock Monday
morning, when friend called by
appointment to wake him to 90 TO
work. He went home intoxicated
Sunday night, which was the last seen
OF him alive. He was German, with
no relatives in this country and came
here about three years ago.
Fred Benter, a lad about twelve
years Of age, was brought to this city
by the Monday 30 train from Oak
Vile and taken to the hospital. 1t is
said he was struck by an engine while
running across the track, and was inn
mediately taken on the train and
brought here. He complained OF his
head and hip hurting and he was
badly bruised, bnt no bones were
broken, and he will probably soon
recover.
1t seems unfortunate that the third
and fourth grades are so overcrowded
at the Washington school, that small
children living in the vicinity must
tramp through the rain and mud over
TO the Lincoln school building to re.
ceive instruction during the coming
winter. There is more or less com.
plant from parents over this phase OF
the situation. 1t is rather serious
proposition when child eight or nine
years Of age must travel nearly q mile
to attend school carrying an umbrella
and school books through a heavy
down pour OF rain.
Geo. S. Allen, of the firm of Allen
x Sou, owning a sawmill near Little
Rock, has sold his interest to Bertram
Sherman, of Seattle, who with Harry
Allen, the junior member, will con.
tinue the business under the name OF
Allen Sherman Lumber Co. It is re-
ported in the evening paper that the
consideration was $4,000. When Mr..
Allen, who has returned to this city to
live, was asked what business he pro.
posed to engage in, he laconically and
Enthusiastically answered "Walk the
Streets" which probably means that
he has not yet determined what to do
with his wealth."

His recovery was immediate on arrival
at lower altitude. The completeness
of his recovery is manifest when it is
stated that Wednesday he left for the
Gray's Harbor country to champion
the cause OF man on trial for his
life. This time, however, Mrs. Israel
accompanied him.

H. d. Morgan, one of Olympia's
first pioneers, who settled here in 1858,
died at his home in Snohomish, on
Friday OF last week, at the age of Sc
years. He is survived by a daughter
and by two sons, one OF whom was q
member OF the last Legislature. Mr..
Morgan was . carpenter by trade, and
built the old capitol, used during Ter
ritorial days, and made the desks used
half century by the law m skers, some
OF which are still in use at the new
capitol. Mr. Morgan moved to Sno.
homish in 1876, where be had ever
since resided. He organized the first
Masonic Lodge in that city, of which
he was many years Worthy Master.
The jury in the case of the Green
Stamp Co. vs.. the Mottman Mercan-
tile Co., Of this city, on trial in the
Federal Court, at Tacoma, last week,
resulted in . disagreement after twenty.
four hours. Three of the jurors had
been excused for illness after the suit
had commenced and considerable evi.
dence had been taken, but, by stipula.
ton, the case proceeded with nine
jurymen. The charge of Judge
Hanford embraced the instruction
that any State law or ordinance di.
rected against q trading stamp COM
pany was unconstitutional, and need
not be considered by the jury in its
deliberations. Notwithstanding this
Limitation, the jury returned q verdict
Of disagreement, stan ding one for the
prosecution and eight for the defense.
A new trial will probably ensue.
Allen, the 5-year.old boy of Mr.. and
Mrs. Robt. Sargent, was drowned in
the bay fronting their home on Third
street, Friday night. He was missed
about 8 o'clock, and after q prelimin-
airy search OF the adjacent streets, it
was extended to the bay and contin-
ued all night without success. Satur-
day morning the receding tide dis.
closed the body of the little victim, .
short distance from the foundry
wharf, not over 100 feet from the
Sargent home, which was built on
piling. The circumstances connected
with the disaster will probably forever
remain q mystery for it is not known
that any human eye witnessed the
tragedy. The victim was the youngest
of four children, and the family have
resided here five years. The funeral
services were held at Whiteside's un.
dertaking parlors Sunday afternoon, a
large assemblage being present to
testify their sympathy for the deeply
bereaved parents and family. The
father is a member of the order of Ben
Hur, and the services were under
their direction.
At the Eagles Hall, Wednesday
evening. under the auspices of the
Degree OF Honor. A. o. U. w., there
was a largo attendance OF attentive
