The pastor, Rev. Isaac Peart,

Well Cnh hOlStered Furnifnre.

When Paradise Corner organized it's
woman's club it was determined that
everything should be done in the most
businesslike way. "My husband makes
so much fun of wonen's meetings. -
said one Of the youngest members.
"He says women never remember to
say Mrs. President or speak of the
chair or the secretary that is, he
says they are liable tc forget at any
time and mention names instead, but
I told him we shouldn't, any of us.
"Why, as told him, we are 50 par
ticular that when we had that extra
meeting at Miss Lowden's, and it was
SO hot and Miss Ransom looked about
baked in her new coat, Miss Lowden
feels so strongly that we mustn't ever
run to careless ways of speech that she
said, Wouldn't it be wiser for the
chair to remove it's coat, though it is so
awfully becoming to itY And it really
did sound little queer till you thought
1t over."-Youth's Companion.

Color and Aroma of Coffee.

There are two things which people
Imagine are guides to the goodness Of
coffee which are really of no conse-
quence whatever. They are the color
Of the decoction and the aroma Of the
coffee when ground or as it escapes
from the pot in drawing. The color is
due almost entirely to the roasting.
This is true also Of tea. The finest
coffees and teas, when properly roast
ed and prepared, to give out their
finest favors will color the water but
little. The real essences which give
the flavor have practically no color.

grease spots lay powdered pipeclay

The blueberry season is at it's

berry pickers, and there are

w WAREHOUSE
TO BE ERECTED
George Markham to BUILD Imme
diately on Ashes OF Burned
Structure.

George Markham, with Phoe-
nix like activity, will erect one of
the finest coal warehouses in the
entire northwest over the
ashes Of the recently destroyed
warehouse, on the south side of
the Great Northern tracks,
wherein he lost several hundred
tons Of coal by fire two weeks
ago. i
The building will be sixty feet
long, eighteen feet wide, and the
whole will be covered with
pressed steel, making it fire
proof.
The structure will be so 10.
Gated that there will be chutes on
the track side, allowing coal TO
be dumped directly from the
cars into the top of the bins; and
the south side will be so arranged
that teams may back up to the
platform and take coal directly
from the bins into the wagons.
Ben Erickson has the contract,
the ground is being cleared, and
Mr.. Markham expects to have
the warehouse ready for the
reception of coal within ten days.
The destroying element had
no terrors for George, and he is
doing more business than ever.

John Marin had a ride yester.
day that he will not soon forget.
He was with his dray at the M.

a quick turn, and the dray fell on
it's side. John got on the tongue
of the wagon between the horses,
where he was given a severe
humping until the rig was thrown
against the sidewalk and Marin
was thrown headforemost from
the tongue to the ground.
He had the presence of mind to
grasp the brides and stop the
horses before they could trample
on him. He narrowly escaped
serious injury.

A Good Horses Color,

A good horse cannot be q bad color.
It is said. 1t Is certain that Derby
winners are not drawn from certain
colors. Has gray ever won the race
or dun or skewbald or piebald? :?
Has there ever been thoroughbred of
the latter type? Quite black thorough
breds are rare, white still more so,
gray uncommon even among the less
exalted of public performers. The
Stud Book" would not bear out these
statements where colors uncommon on
the race course are described. The eX-
PLANTATION is, of course, that the horse
is there described as he appeared as a
foal An owner Of a bay thoroughbred
looked up the "Stud Book" to find his
purchase pictured as chestnut and
complained to the men of whom he
had bought the horse. The former
owner assured him that the descrip-
tion was correct at the time it was en-
tered. Other owners, less certain as to
what color may appear when the first
coat has been cast, have before now
made such singular entries as 'tgray,
roam or chestnut" st. James Gazette

A Missing Five Franc Piece,

Fully half the grownup people of
France believe the old story that Napo-

francs in silver five franc piece and
that the coin is yet in circulation. They
say that the people did not want the
five franc piece and that in order to
create demand for it Napoleon re-
sorted to the device mentioned. The
check or treasury order, 1t is said, was
written upon asbestus paper and in
closed in the metal at the time the coin
was made. Thousands of five franc
pieces are annually broken open and
have been so inspected since the story

Shooting Down the Alps on Skees.
The quest for moral is provoked by
a long list Of skeeing accidents in the
Alps. In itself the exercise can hardly
be considered more perilous than skat-
ing, though the proportion of sprained
ankles and twisted tendons is higher,
but when the skeer skees a distance
from his base and ventures upon un-
familiar ground there are at least
three ways in which calamity is liable
to befall him. On glacier he may
break through the snow bridge which
he is trying to shoot and be buried in
crevasse. On the hillside he may skee
violently down a steep place and, un-
able to arrest his pace, end by skeeing
over precipice. Almost anywhere,
unless he knows the signs, he may skee

PROSECUTION

EVIDENCE FINISHED BY TILL
GOVERNMENT IN THE CASE OF
GEORGE WAlNEE.

In the trial of George Wainee, charged
with the murder of his wife. Most Of
the new evidence placed before the
jury was in the shape IF admissions
by the defense, of statements made by
Deputy Attorney General Prosser le-
harding the condition Of the premises
whore The tragedy occurred. The Jury
viewed the premises yesterday after
noon, and the facts admitted had ref
erence to alterations which have been
made since the alleged murder.
When the prosecution closed Attor-
ney S. B. Kingsbury for the defense
asked for a recess, stating that he had
not expected to open the defense so
soon. He said that Prosser had told
him he would occupy all of today. and
that the defense had therefore not pre-
pared to begin the defense. Prosser
denied that he had said that he would
take all day, and the attorneys seemed
to be prepared for a nice scrap, but
Judge De Bolt granted the request fol
a recess, though not without making
a kick saying that time was precious.
