OFFER CALHOUN s25.
Damage to West Main Building, Re-
suit Of City Repairs, Before Coun-

Gil.
The claim of W. H. Calhoun. for
damages to his store building at liz
West Main street, as a result of the
Improvements to the city property next
door, came before the council again
Monday night, in the shape of an lesti-
mate made by contractor as to the
amount of money would be required to
make repairs that are due solely to the
damage caused by the city. This >esti-
mate aggregated s124. The damage, as
claimed by Mr.. Calhoun. is all due to
the settling Of the walls by UNDER
mining when the city was putting in a
new wall Mr.. Calhoun ,stated that he
had already paid out $40 in repairs on
the building, and he had not yet
touched the papering. Mr. Gregory
moved to refer to the committee on
claims and accounts, and Mr.. Herman
moved to amend by rendering Mr. Call
houn $25 in payment for damages. The
amendment was carried by unani-
NOUS vote, Mcdonald, Jay and Packer
being absent.
1t is more than likely that this claim
will come up again at the next; meet
for Mr.. Calhoun is not inclined to ac-
cept s25, deeming THAT sum entirely too
small. After the meeting Mr.. Calhoun
told members of the council that he
would have been satisfied with $50, or
half of the cost Of the repairs, and
some Of the members we're inclined to
the belief that if he had presented a
claim for this amount, rather than a
bill for $124, that the council would
have allowed it.

Brother and Sister Meet After Sep

Brother and Sister Meet After Sep
aration Of Fifty-three Years.
"A press dispatch sent out from Sc
attic Wash, will prove, OF interest to
members of the KileN family and their
friends in this city, as 1t tells of the re-
uniting of a, brother and sister, who
for ffty-three years. The Seattle
story is as follows:
i 1.-THE reunion of a brother and Sis
ter, after separation of fifty-thres
years, is not commonplace event
even in the Kaleidoscope life of the
west. That is what happened ip Sc
attic, when Mrs Eliza Van Brocklin
went to the home of Martin Kile in
West Seattle, and introduced herself
as his sister.
4 More than half q century ago the
Kile family resided at Freeport, Ill
Besides the father and mother, the
family consisted Of six sons and three
daughters. In 1854, Eliza, then "a
years old, left the parental home and
went to Iowa. She married a man
named Nicely, who later died. In 1863
she went to Colorado. At Denver she
became acquainted with Van Brocklin
whom she married. The Alder gulch
gold mining excitement was, rampant
in Montana, and Van Brocklin and
his bride determined to join the stam-
pede to the new diggangs. They soon
found themselves in the hurly- burly OF
a pioneer mining camp.

war; Solomon went to Missouri. where

two brothers met once during, the wal

The brothers seemed to have kept tab
on the movements Of each other. but

own carelessness Of not writing home.
cat the close of the civil war Martin
went to Minnesota, where he married
Miss Sarah Gilman, Of Wisconsin, IN
which state they located in 1858. Fiji
teen years later they moved to South
Dakota, and in 1888 came to Seattle.
"Two years ago Mrs. Van Brocklin.

coast, 10 HlSlt til6 eApOslltoA az ! VI -

Seattle, and much OF the time was
passed in camp on the West Seattle
beach, within a stones throw Of Mar
tin Kile's home, a brother, whom she
had long given up as dead.
Last year Martin Kile was visited
by his brother, Solomon. Together the
two brothers speculated on the where
abouts Of Eliza. Every conversation
ended with the sad conclusion, "She
must be dead"
Last fall James Nelly, son Of Mrs.
Van Brocklin, by her first marriage,
came to Seattle and engaged in BUSH
ness. Last March he was followed by
his mother.
About May Mrs. Van Brocklin
