= o'clock Wednesday morning, from
the burns she received in the collision.
II there ever WAS a case justifying a
demand for damages resulting from
inadequate service, this is one of them
The two newspapers" of this city
have been telling some very Sensational
stories about the kidnapping of Twelve
year-old daughter of +. W. Eagen, liv-
ing about five miles southwest OF Tum-
water. Sarah, as the girl is named,
was IN all clubhouse getting potatoes
TOR the evening meal, when bear, a.
the girl called it, seized her by the
clothes, on the back, near the waist,
and carried her Off INTO the forest half
mile, jumping over n fence five feet
high to do so. Her brother, who was
a witness of the act, said that the ami.
NAL had a long tail, and that, with the
size OF footprint supposed to have
been made by the animal, seems to
induce the belief that the animal, if it
existed in reality, must have been a
cougar instead of bear. The story
goes that the animal dropped the girl
near big log, when the doughty little
heroine seized club, and struck it a
severe blow on the head, and then ran.
wild with fright, for a neighbours
house, the home of Henry Pamplinger,
where she arrived completely ex
hausted by her extraordinary exper-
fence. From there she WAS taken to
her home Just in time to notify
searching party from this city and
Tumwater that had been organized on
notification by telephone to search the
woods for her, or her mutilated body
as it was feared would be the result.
This is the story told, in brief, with
tiresome, presumptuous details elimi-
mated. How much, or how little truth
there is in it, has not yet been deter.
mined. But that a girl twelve years
of age, weighing probably hundred
pounds, could be carried over q five.
foot fence and half a mile into the
forest, by either cougar or bear, seems
incredible.

then that little sagey odor floating
about-its just as sweet as the smell
OF orange blossoms on a wedding day.
And percbance the acme is reached by
that far-away, sublimsted suggestion
of an onion, tluttering about ones
nostrils like the dream of some dear
Homecoming realized at last.
Turkey straight, without stuffing
no, indeed! II is the longing OF civil.
ization to mix with naked nature the
sweet subconsciousness OF tho human
heart and garnish il with dream and
poetry and the love of things unde.
fined and divine. That's stuffing.
Down with any reform in roast turkey.
The grandmothers gave it sancity
that will be downright sacrilege to rob
it Of. It will never be improved while
the world stands.

more stufing, please.
