Gu. Blood From Arms.


The evidence OF the witnesses was
such as TO show that the superintend,
ent OF ME Institution has been run
ming things to suit himself and that
even when some of The Inmates said
they we're sick and unable to carry
out his commands he would thrash
them with the buggy whip and com
pei them to do what he told them ro
do. The first witness examined al
the hearing was Matile McWilliam:
the complainant. who stated that she
had been h!ppej with the buggy whip
because she did not get out of bel
quick enough TO suit the superinteni
ent. During the time she was giving
her evidence and telling the cnur,
how she had been abused By the su
perintendent. the woman barred ner
arms and showed the marks OF the
whipping she had received a couple oil
weeks ago..
Eliza Smith an inmate Of the In
Urinary stated that she had seen the
superintendent go to the McWilllams
woman's room and that ne carried a
buggy whip in his hand. That she
had gone back into her room and had
not seen him strike the other woman
but had heard screams. which she
thought meant that the woman was
being chastised. Mary Mcclellan was
the next witness and she was au To-
teres'dng one. She knew that the Nc
Williams woman had been whipped
she said. and also stated that Phillip;
had a whip in his hand when he went
to the room. the NlcWilllams woman
she claimed had a very bad temper
was constantly jawlpc and swearinl
and really deserved what she got. In
reply to a question Mrs. Mcclellan
said: she has an awful bad temper
and was always quarreiing and jaw
ing and swearing, and | believe would
quarrel with the king II she stood be
fore him. 1t seems like Heaven since
she left there"

ANOTHER INDUSTRY
Northwest Blow Pipe Co. Anticipates
Locating Here.

New industrial plants building or
seeking locations in our city are
getting to be almost every day af-
fairs. The latest one TO conclude
that St. Johns is just about the
right location for their increasing
business is the Northwest Blow
Pipe Co. of Portland. An option
has been taken OIL ground adjoin-
ing the steel ship building opera
tions, and IL is the intention OF this
company to begin construction
work as soon as their plans are
mature. The proposed new plant
will manufacture dust collectors,
furnace feeders and galvanized
steel piping for exhaust fans OH
dust producing machinery of all
kinds. They will also do general
sheet metal work aud have ma
chine and blacksmith shop in con-
ucction When this plant is in
full operation IL will furnish cm-
ploymeat for large number of
employees, aud increase the pay roll
of 81 Johns very substantially.

CLOSING OUT ABSOLUTELY
Not An Advertising Scheme, But
Actually Selling Out.

The magnificent stock of the
Wagner Company is now being
rapidly decreased in size, and while
the owners are not making any
money out of the sale the patrons
of the store are surely saving a
large amount. There is not a
householder in this vicinity who
can afford to miss these great daily
sales-because a purchase means
the shutting out of all profit to the
handler. II means buying at retail
at wholesale prices. II means, too,
that no Portland store can touch
the bargains shown by the Wago-
ner Company.
Many people are caught by fam
ing ads in the city dailies, and find
out, too late, that high prices rule
on decent goods, but here is an OPP
portunity to secure genuine bar
gains in groceries, dry goods. fur
niture, tinware, notions-in short,
every article handled by their ener-
getic store is to be disposed of at
cost-and sometimes at even less
than cost.
Every day lessons this big stock
the hustling kitten gets the cream;
delay not day, but go to the store
and see that your money is saved.
The careful householder realizes
bargain when seen, and the big
store is full of them. After their
stock is closed out buyers will have
to purchase at proht-making stores.
