Musicale.

Notable among the weeks events
we're the two musicales given by the
pupils of Miss Beatrice Shelton. The
first was given Tuesday evening by
the pupils of the older class, and the
second last evening by the younger
pupils. Both we're true tests OF mu-
steal ability, and both teacher and
pupils are to be congratulated on
the success they have achieved
success merited by their patient per-
severing study.
The vocalists who assisted were of
the best. Tuesday evening Mrs. w.
Carlton Smith sang, and Miss Lillian
Siege, the talented violinist, and
Prof. Roberts, on the pipe organ, as
sisted. Last evening Mrs. Charles
H. Hinges sang several numbers, and
her clear, vibrant voice filled the
auditorium with sweetest music.
Many numbers were played from
memory, which certainly enhanced
the enjoyment of the occasion.
There were two quartets, both Civ
en- splenddly by the Misses Mary
Pigler, Maud Hill, Blanche Knox
and Zoa Toothacre, and the Misses
Dorothy Pearce, Helen Leech, Laura
Pugh and Winnie Vercler. II would
be impossible to speak Of each one
separately, suffice 1t to say they gave
their listeners a pleasant surprise,
and demonstrated the possession of
muical ability. Miss Claudine Rose
and Mabel Smith. Bella Ackerman,
Frances Pohle, Mary Pigler, Helen
Pearce, Blanche Knox and Zoa Tooth
acre appeared in duets. The solos
were played by Miss Myrtle Lantz,
Evelyn Relgleman, Florence Metcalf,
Dorothy Pearce, Jennie Fry, Nellie
Sykes, Mabel Smith and Mary Pig
Ter.
A bevy of Salem's young ladies act
ed as ushers, and made a charming
picture, prelude of beauty TO an
evening of harmony.

market would be practically lost in
fourteen states, and "the public in
the great consuming territories
would be deprived of the benefit of
obtaining Pacific coast lumber, for,
in view of the competition existing,
neither the dealer nor the consumer
in such territory will or can be ex-
pected to absorb the advance, and
the Pacific coast manufacturers could
not deduct the advance in rates from
the selling prices"
The complaint adds that before re-
ceiving notice of the proposed in
crease in the freight rate, large con-
tracts were entered into by the plain
tiffs for the delivery Of lumber to
points within the territory to be af-
fected by the increased rate; that
they have been unable to fill these
orders because of the fact that the
railway companies haze utterly failed
to provide equipment sufficient to
move the manufactured product, so
that they have now, and for some
time have had, on their skids large
quantity of lumber awaiting trans
portation in order to be delivered in
accordance with existing contracts,
which would have been delivered had
the carriers furnished transportation.

undoubtedly authentic. Chesterfield

Merchants Fair and industrial Expo.
SifiOn will Open Next Thursday
Evening. Some Fine Exhibits Be.
ing Placed. Poultry Show prOmi-
nent Feature.

Whatever of good becomes the center
of attention and the general subject OF
conversation moulds the community in

better impulses and endeavors OF the
people. Precisely this is the Hoquiam

ton.
Everybody is looking toward the OPEN
ing Of the Fair as a great event for Grays

the exhibits, the attractions and what
these mean to the people Of the Harb Dor.

their booths, and bv I'll ursday night
next, at 7 o'clock, which is the time OF
opening, more than thirty-fve exhibits
and displays of nearly as many lines of
goods and articles will greet the eye OF
the visitor. The management has sought
to avoid duplicating displays, so there
will lie the largest possible variety.
What lie more. these exhibits will be OF
value because Of their worthiness, there
being nothing at the Fair that lie not OF
general utility and representing COM
menLable industry and enterprise. Well
arranged exhibits are always interesting
and instructive, and this will not be an
exception.
The Poultry Show will be Of vast bene.
fit to the Grays Harbor county by way
of encouraging the raising of the best
breeds, furnishing an occasion for poultry
raisers to get acquainted and by getting
more people to take up the raising Of
poultry as q means OF helping make a
livelihood.
Lovers Of art, fancy work, curios, good
music and big social events will have
many hours Of enjoyment at the Fair.
Doubtless many readers of these linee,

art, or pieces Of fancy work they would
be willing to display at the Fair. If SO,

AN IMPORTANT INDUSTRY INFLATED.

Mr.. w. T. Conway has opened valu.
able stone quarry at Loeb Raven, direct
ly alongside of the M. and P. railroad.
He has established steam drills and the
daily output is already large and will be
much larger in the near future. The rock
is a gueiss, which is closely allied to
granite, shows a handsome face, can be
gotten out in blocks of almost any size
and is finding a ready market in Balti-
more at remunerative prizes. Because of
the economy incident to its production it
will probably be popular along a long
stretch of the Maryland and Pennsyl-
vania railroad, both for building pur-
poses and crushed stones, the latter of
which it has been impossible to secure
heretofore except at excessive prices
This is the only quarry worked between
Baltimore and the Rocks of Deer Creek.
The railroad is also about to put in an
important switch connection near this
point, extending across the valley into
meadow lately belonging to the Will
liam Gilmore estate, where marble has
been discovered of about the same charac-
ter as that of the Beaver Dam quarries !;
this will be mined and marketed on a
large scale by corporation recently or
gained for the purpose. Quite freak
of nature presents itself at this point,
where marble comes to the surface on
one side of valley and gness rock of an
entirely different geological nature on the
opposite side, only few hundred yards
apart.

removing her coat the mouse scampered
away. Such nerve is rarely displayed
under such trying circumstances and the
lady deserves especial encomium not only
from the pastor of the church, but from
the congregation as well, for had she
made her sufferings known there would
have probably been general stampede,
at least in the female portion of the con-
gregation.
Isaac Hecht, by S. A. Williams, at
torney, has filed petition i'll the Circuit
Court for Hartford county, asking for a
writ mandamus against John B. Kenly,
Willard F. Tydings and Charles T. Will
son, Supervisors of Election of Havre de
Grace, to prevent any other name being
printed on the official ballot as a candi-
date for mayor except his own, Mr..
Hecht alleging that he is the only eligible
candidate who has complied with the
necessary prerequisites of the charter
He claims that Mr.. Charles T. Wilson,
one of the supervisors, has also filed Pc
tition asking that his name go on the list
as candidate against Mr.. Hecht. 1t is
alleged that Mr.. Wilson, being a super
visor, cannot, under the Act of Assembly
incorporating the City of Havre de
Grace, be candidate for any elective
office until his term as supervisor expires.
Judge VanBibber passed nisi order re-
quiring the supervisors to show cause on
or before the 3Oth of April why the writ
should not he issued.
