First Thought to Have Resulted From Suicide.
Is Now Believed to Have Been an Accident.
The body OF Miss Grace Kelso, who
left her homo at South Union, last
Saturday morning, was found in
brakes lake, Sunday. by searching
party, who had been dragging for il a
whole day and night. Deceased was
only - years of age, and had gradu-
ated . few days before at the Tum-
water school. From all accounts it
appears che has had good home, but
it is stated her parents had refused to
let her 60 on a days boating with a
young man, and she had probably
brooded over this restraint until
temporarily insane. She had never
before resented the authority Of her
mother and Mr.. Vollner, her step
father, which renders her conduct the
more inexplicable. The funeral was
held Monday afternoon from the
South Union church, Rev. F. A.
Violette conducting the services, aud
number Of schoolgirl companions
acting as pail. bearers. Interment was
made in Masonic cemetery.
After thorough investigation of all
circumstances made by Mr.. and Mrs.
Baughn, of Tacoma, they are quite
sure the girls death resulted from &C
cident. 1t is thought she was in
search of boat for a contemplated
outing with her young friends, and
that not finding the boat at its usual
place she had gone out on q log to
look for it along the shore line, and
had slipped into the water and being
unable to swim and no aids near, had
drowned.

TOO MANY WIVES.
Quite Novel Case, Especially for This staid
Community.

Several months ago. there lived
man and woman, supposedly as hus.
band and wife by their most intimate
friends. The man acquired q piece of
improved real property, sold the same
10 poor workingman, who paid full
value thereof, the woman signing the
conveyance as the wife of the grantor.
The party who drew the deed is one of
our best citizens acting innocently in
the premises. Within short time, it
came to light that the seller had
wife living in another State, from
whom he had not been divorced. The
precious pair. having left the country.
his son living in Olympia, who had
visited them while here and eaten at
their table, now comes forward aud
wants to annoy the innocent purchaser,
by claiming to represent his mother in
the East. OF course, under the law OF
Washington, the buyer is protected,
but il would seem the criminal law
ought to punish the first parties, the
woman for forgery and the man as an
accessory, both being penitentisry Of
lenses.

when the Sun is apparently at the

term solstice, stopping or standing

the longest daylight and the shortest

the Earth, in the course Of year,

No MATTER what may be the under
lying cause that has led to exposure
OF the beef packers, the light thrown
upon the dark methods employed will
result in much public benefit, and for
time, at least, those sordid, avaricious
cormorants will have to listen to the
warning and obey the laws made for
public protection. Chicago is just
now taking q lively interest in the
work of better sanitary regulation, and
it is we'll for the public to keep the
eye and nose poised upon the abattoirs.
Topeka, Kansas, is likewise on the
alert and the State Board OF Health
has begun an investigation of the
charge that injurious chemicals had
been used in preserving meats, or "em-
balming" them, as it was called in war
times.

Il Will Not Down at Bidding.

Secretary shaw, in speech at New
ton, Iowa, on the tariff issue lately
said
" Tie Democratic party in the coming
election Will not demand free trade. 1t
viii simply echo the Cummins cry for
" revision. The next Congressional
campaign will be made up on the issue
now being urged within our ranks, and
the success u; the Cummins wing OF the
Republican party in Iowa will do more
Ia strengthen the hands OF our political
opponents than any other one thing pos
>ihlc between now and election day next
November.
The Democratic party, as = matter
OF fact, never has demanded "iree
trade, per 81. 1t has always acknowl-
edged tariff, moderated by common
sense, as the best means that had been
devised for raising revenue aud that
too with reasonable incidental protec.
ton. The issue as presented by the
parties now is, briefly defined, tariff
revision by the Democrats and appli-
cation oi the Hanna alternative when
driven to the wall, "let we'll enough
alone" by their opponents. AS Mr..
Shaw doubtless speaks for the Presi.
dent, the administration policy is to
ignore the issue in future campaigns.
The great fear is that the honorable
Secretary has not correctly stated Mr..
Roosevelt's intention OF not appropri-
ating about the only remaining plank
of the 1896 platform, except parity OF
gold and silver in American coinage
or that Mr.. Roosevelt will either re.
fuse to confirm the position assigned
him on that question, or as he has
done several times in important mat.
ters OF principle, reverse his policy and
trim his sails to catch the trade-winds
OF popular opinion.
If the Republican party makes o
square.cut issue on this matter OF tariff
revision, and upholds the mother OF
trusts" in support of monopolies that
have enriched the few at the expense
OF the many, under the false plea OF
protection of home industry, restricted
trade and deprived the producers of
the great American staples Of access
to their natural markets." the Demo.
cratic party will gladly accept the
challenge when the national conven.
tions meet.

STOCKMEN FAVOR EXTENSION OF
LIMIT.-The 36-hour law for limit OF
time that cattle may be held in trans.
portation lately passed the Senate. It
is an increase of six hours from %, the
former limit, and, strange to say,
many owners of cattle prefer it. The
time can only be extended, however,
on their written application or con-
sent while in transit. It is claimed
that unloading of stock is at times
more harmful than to extend for Q
few hours their period OF confinement.

years represents an underlined protest
against monopolistic conditions which

QUARANTINEs RIVAL WITH HIS

under treatment for smallpox. Car
roll Curier, suffer, called repeatedly
on the convalescing maiden, and was
placed under arrest for his carelessness
OF consequences and to guard the pub.
lie against infection. His arrest and
imprisonment caused the house to be
placed under quarantine, when 10 and
behold, the Health Officer found o
rival OF Curier, . Mr.. Detwiller, calling
on the young lady. He was enioined
to remain at the house during the two
weeks of quarantine. 1t is not said
that he made any loud remembrance
against this order; it remained for the
swain in prison bound to raise his
voice in protest. Only think what
tribulation he must suffer from an act
that was mainly caused by his own
thoughtless disregard OF proprietiesl
It is said all the parties involved arc

CAPABILITIES or THE WIRELESS
DEMONS rEATED. - Tie government
made a remarkable discovery in con

dock Dewey TO Manila. which demon
strated the possibilities Of the wireless
telegraph service, when the tlotllla
escortug the dry dock became lost,
Jan. 2lst, and for two weeks no, hing
was heard from it. Admiral Evans, In
command of the fleet in the West In
dias, was ordered to send warship
in search Of the dock and the gunboat
Tacoma, the flagship Glacier and the
sesgoing tug Potomac, constituted the
lost tlotil'a. The cruiser Maryland
was dispatched, and on Feb. 9th, being
equipped with a wireless apparatus,
she got in communication with the
Glacier, and by way OF the wireless
station AT Cape Ha!teras Geographic
communication was kept up with the
department at Washington, the mes
sages, going through the Maryland as
a relay, distance OF over 1000 miles.
The entire distance traversed by the
dock and her consort was more than
10000 miles. The orders were to take
a course due east, but this was impos-
BILE, and the huge drydock broke away
from the towboats 20 often that the
flotilla was compelled to 60 several
thousand miles out of its course.

Col. 1t is 1l5 feet in length, So feet
wide, and has stars two feet in diam
eter. The stripes are four feet two
inches in width. aud there are !. $50
yards in the flag. 1t was made to
float over the Grand Army building
from q staff, but had to be fastened to
the side of the building which it
wholly covers. No pole of sufficient
strength could be obtained to hold it
aloft, the bunting weighing $50 pounds.
and when stretched at tensile strength,
in stiff breeze, would undoubtedly
shatter one Of the largest trees Of the
forest.
