The annual meeting of the Washing
to be held at Tacoma July "a, 25 and
26, promises to be one of the most sue
cessful which has yet been held by
this organization, the newspaper men
all over the state taking great inter-
est, and nearly all of them having al
ready announced their intentions of
being present. President Thomas
Hooker, who has charge of the prepar-
ing of the program, has already Sc
cured a number of the best speakers
in the state, including Governor Mead,
who will deliver the address of well
come. A number of important matters
of interest to the newspaper fraternity
action and it is believed that much will
be accomplished for the general well
fare of the members.
The social features of the gathering.
which are in the hands of committee
of Tacoma citizens, promise to be OF
the most elaborate nature, and some
thing will be done for the entertain
ment of the editors and their families
all the time that they are not engaged
in business sessions. Among the other
good things which are promised Is
trip over the Tacoma Eastern railway
to the end of the line near Mount Ia
coma, with probably banquet at one
of the famous resorts; boat rides or
the sound and trips to Point Defiance
and other places of interest.
The railroad companies have extend
ed the usual courtesies to the news
paper men, and Secretary Hutchinson
is kept busy receiving and forwarding
applications for transportation. Al
newspaper men DESTROYS of attending
the session should notify Secretary Z
H Hutchinson, Spokane, as soon a
possible, in order that the necessar
arrangements may be maue.

IS NOW KING
Norway Now Has Full Pledged King
and Queen.


Throndhjem=With a noble cere-
mony, King Haakon VII. and Queen
Maud formerly Prince Charles and
Princess Maud Of Denmark last Fri
day were invested with the crowns Of
Norway The time, the circumstances
and memories gave the occasion a
peculiar solemnity that produced an
impressive monotone throughout the
proceedings.
The Norwegian-American delegates
to the coronation of King Haakon held
a meeting Saturday in the garden of
the old archbishop's palace, under the
shadow of the cathedral, and invited
William ]. Bryan to address them.
When Mr.. Bryan appeared he was
presented with American and Nor
wegian flags and the crowd cheered
him. Mr.. Bryan said that, judging Nor
way by her sons who came TO America
he wanted to offer her his congratula
tions. He declared that Norway had
achieved high civilization without los
ing any of her early strength, a thing
nations rarely achieved. He hoped
the country's prosperity would be as
long as her days were now.

The new administration and job
bling house building erected by the
w. l.. Douglas Shoe Co., as a part of
its mammoth manufacturing plant in
Brockton, Mass, was dedicated on
June 10. The program included open
house from IL in the morning until
3 in the evening. There was a mu-
steal programme and refreshments
were served all day. Fifteen thousand
invitations were sent out, including
over IL, 900 retail dealers in the
United States who handled the w. L.
Douglas shoes. Mr.. Douglas says that
his three large factories, also the
new building just dedicated, will al
ways be open to inspection and
visitors from everywhere will be well
come.
The new jobbing house just dedi-
Gated will enable hurry orders for
Douglas shoes to be shipped the same
day they are received. The new build
ing is $50 feet long, 60 feet wide and
two stories high. The jobbing depart
ment occupies the entire lower floor
and the new offices of the Douglas
Shoe company occupy the entire sec
ond floor. In the new building there
will be special offices occupied by the
Western Union and the Postal Tele-
graph companies; also by the Tele-
phone companies and there is an
elaborate mailing department. The
completion of this new administration
building marks the establishment of a
modern, up-to-date wholesale jobbing
house and office building.
Mr.. Douglas has long considered the
advisability of a jobbing house, not
only for the purpose of supplying his
own retail stores more readily, but
that the 1000 dealers throughout the
United States handling the w. L.
Douglas shoes might be able to obtain
: shoes for immediate use with greater
: facility.
The new building is said to be the
most complete and convenient of an,
ever built for a commercial house II

Not a Full Call.

The driver of the Oaktown stage
was q person Of much amiability and
large fund Of anecdote, but his mem
DRY was by no means of the best. The
inhabitants Of his native town made,
many excuses for him, but summer
visitors found his failing a particu-
larry trying one.
THAT man should be complained OF,
and should lose his position as express
agent and mail carrier" said one ex
asperated man who had been obliged
to remain in Oaktown over another
night, owing to Ranny Peet's forget
ting TO call for him.
well, now, guess you didn't i'm
press it on Ranny that he was to take
ye," said an Oaktown man, moved to,
mild remonstrance.
Impress it on him"' echoed the.
summer visitor. II wrote my name
on his order book in the postofice. I
should like to know what more
could have done"
well, now, it's like this" said the
farmer, with half-apologetic air.
Sometimes there's a number of or
ders on that book, and Ranny might
happen to forget one of 'em, so what
folks most generally do is fust to,
write their names in the book, and
then speak to Ranny about 1t when
he's up on the trip before the one they
want to go on. And then they ask
Iamu'l-the DOstmaSter-to kind Of
remind Ranny when he stops for the
mail. And then we always deem it
wise to be all ready to start in time,
enough SOS we can walk down to the
crossroads and head Ranny off, just
for fear it might slip his mind, allow
ing time to go back for trunk in case
there's one to be logged"

GREAT CITY In RUINS
MOST APPALLING DISASTER EVER
KNOWN IN CALIFORNIA.
Earthquake and Fire Kill Two Hun
dred or More People and Render
Thousands Homeless-Many Great
Buildings Completely Wrecked.

An Oakland, Cal, special says:
Earthquake and fire Wednesday caus-
ed the greatest calamity California
has ever known. In San Francisco
alone it is estimated that more than
200 persons have persisted, while as
many more are suffering from injuries.
The entire business portion Of the
city is in ruins and the flames, which
owing to the lack of water cannot be
checked except by the blowing up
with dynamite of buildings in their
path are still sweeping through the
city.
1t is utterly impossible at present to
tent OF the conffagration cannot be
told until the fire has burned itself
out.
Thousands of people are homeless
and many are huddled in the parks
and public squares beside the house
hold goods they were able to save.
The city is under martial law and
all the downtown streets are patrolled
by cavalry and infantry. Details of
troops are also guarding the banks.
Most of the principal buildings have
already been destroyed and others are
in imminent danger. over all the
scene of desolation hangs great pail
of smoke.
Communication with outside towns
Is almost entirely cut off, but the re-
port comes from Palo Alto that all
but one of the buildings OF the Lee
land Stanford, Jr., university have
been wrecked and the splendid Memo
rial church, one of the finest struc-
lures of its kind in the world, is a
mass of ruins. One student is known
to have lost his life.
In Oakland five persons were kill
ed. San Jose, Sacramento, Berkeley,
Alameda and other places heard from
suffered severely, and fifteen are re-
ported killed.
The dreadful earthquake shock
came without warning. it's motion APP
parently being from east to west. At
first the upheaval of the earth was
gradual, but in a few seconds it in
creased in intensity. Chimneys began
to fall and buildings to crack, totter-
ing on their foundations.

A WOMAN DOCTOR
Was Quick to See that Coffee Poison
Was Doing the Mischief.

A lady tells of bad case Of coffee

skill could not improve it.
II had neuralgia headaches for II
years." she says, "and have suffered
untold agony. When first began to-
have them weighed 140 pounds, but
they brought me down to no. / went
to many doctors and they gave me only
temporary relief. So suffered on, till
one day in 1904, woman doctor told
me to drink Postum Food Coffee. She
said looked like l was coffee poison

"Now that few months have passed

fee, can gladly say that never know
what neuralgia headache Is like any
more, and 1t was nothing but Postum
that cured me. Before I used Postum

FELT IN WASHINGTON.
The Disturbance Reaches Across the
Entire Continent.

ALHttFt
A Washington special says: The
San Francisco earthquake has reached
across the entire continent. The zis-
mograph at the weather bureau here
showed such violent agitation about
$3.50 Wednesday morning that the pen
passed off the recording sheet. The
instrument at 2 o'clock was still un-
der vibration, showing the earthquake
had not ceased.
The seismic instruments of the
weather bureau here at 12:45 were
still recording violent vibrations. The
second shock felt in San Francisco
at S:15 was clearly indicated by an
other of the bureaus instruments,
thus showing the entire continent is
still affected.

EdfllQudhc anu IRE wednesday, put
nearly half of San Francisco in ruins.
AT least 200 people have been killed
and a thousand others injured, and
the property loss will exceed 100000
900.
Thousands Of people are homeless
and destitute and all day long streams
of people have been fleeing from the
stricken districts to places of safety.
1t was 5:13 O'Clock Wednesday
morning when terrific earthquake
shook the whole city anG surrounding
country One shock apparently last
ed two minutes and there was almost
immediate collapse of fiimsy structures
all over the city.
The water supply was cut off and
when fires broke out in various Sec
lions there was nothing to do but to
let the buildings burn.
Telegraph and telephone commune
cation was shut off for a time. The
Western Union was put completely out
of commission and the Postal COM
pany was the only one that managed
10 o'clock even the Postal was forced
to suspend in San Francisco.
Electric power was stopped and
street cars did not run. Railroads and
ferryboats also ceased operations.
The various fires have been raging
all day and the fire department has
been powerless to do anything except
to dynamite the buildings threatened.
All day long explosions have shak-
en- the city and added to the terror Of
the inhabitants.
Following the first shock there was
another within five minutes, but not
nearly so severe. Three hours later
there was another slight shake.
Reports from districts outside of
San Francisco indicate widespread
damage. San Jose, fifty miles south,
lost many buildings and from fifteen 20
twenty people We're killed. The an
mex of the Vendome Hotel collapsed
and fire broke out.
Stanford university and Palo Alto
suffered. At Stanford many of the
handsome buildings were demolished
and two people were killed.
The court house at Redwood city
and other buildings collapsed. Mento
Park, Burlingame and other fashion
able suburban towns suffered. Santa
Rosa to the north; Napa, Vallejo and
all towns around the bay were DAM
aged. These reports. alarming as they
were, created little interest in San
Francisco, where the people were in
a frantic state. They did not stop to
dress, but rushed out into the streets
in their night clothes.
Wednesdays experience has been a
testimonial to the modern steel build
ing. A score of these structures were
in course of erection, and not one of
them suffered. The completed mod
ern buildings were also immune from
harm by earthquake. The buildings
that collapsed were all fiimsy wooden
and old-fashioned brick structures.
The damage by earthquake does not
begin to compare with the loss by fire.
The heart OF the business section has
been destroyed. An area of thickly
covered ground Of eight square miles
has been burned over and there Is no
telling when the fire will be under con-
troll.
Mayor Schmitz was about early and
took measures for the relief and pro-
lection Of the city. Gen. Funston was
quickly communicated with. and by
O'clock 1000 federal soldiers were
guarding the city and assisting the
fremen in dynamiting the buildings.
