UNIFORMS FOR
FIRE ladies
WILL WEAR BLUE SUITS AND
cAPS.-oRDER MADE FOR
NEW CLOTHES.

Columbias efficient fire department
will soon be out in bright new uni
forms. The city does not furnish uni
forms for the firemen, simply furnish
ing rubber coats, boots and helmets
for active work. The. flremen have
decided, however, that they want spe-
cial uniforms, so have ordered blue
suits and caps with aluminium but
tons. These uniforms will be worn
at all times. The new uniforms will
arrive within week or ten days.

themselves upon their regularity"

The BOILERS, CLAIMS.

REPRESENTATIVE of the boiling con

have issued a statement addressed tc
The Democratic voters of the Twen
tieth Senatorial District which is
unique in many respects. Several
statements therein made do not con
form to the facts, but probably the
most violent assumption and one that
could have been addressed only to the
sense Of humor of the people, is the
claim that in some way the perpetuity
If the Anglo Saxon civilization is in
yolved in the settlement of this con-
cToversy.
Just how the boilers are going to
demonstrate the truth of this most
remarkable contention will be a little
difficult to understand, particularly in
view Of the fact that every person
Who signs it is now and has been a
devoted adherent of Gov Patterson
whose partisans throughout the State
loudly boast that for every Prohibition
Democrat they lose they will get

time in the history of the Democratic

MULE TRADING
RATHER BRISK
SALES ON MONDAY FOOT UP
TOTAL OF FROM $4,000
TO $4,000.

The mule business Monday showed
increased activity during the after
noon and for time trading was rather
brisk The business for the day must
have been between $4,000 and $4,000
and while this amount falls far short
of the totals for other first Mondays,
it will help.
J. w. Howard & Co. did the bulk
of the business, buying during the day
eighty head of extra good mules and
selling to southern buyers 100 head.

HOW TO PREVENT LEAKS IN THE
ROOF.

little puddle on the floor inside the
building does not necessarily mean a
leak directly overhead, but it does mean
a leak somewhere. Often such leaks
are very difficult to trace because the
water will follow the roof boards under
the roofing for a considerable distance
before it comes through. The most like
ly place for leaks is around chimneys
and gables. These are the points where
cement must be used freely when the
roofing is laid, but even with the utmost
care stiff and heavy roofing will work
itself away from the bricks and let
the water in.
The best way to avoid such troubles
is to adopt a roofing which is very
pliable, as such a roofing is much easier
to cut and fold in the small corners.
Congo Roofing, for instance, is both
pliable and easy to handle. The natural
result is that Congo Roof is invariably
tight, whereas other roofings which may
be just as good in their waterproofing
qualities will be frequently extremely
difficult to get tight the first time owing
to their stiffness and difficulty in laying
same.
A Free Sample of Congo may be had
by sending a postal card to the manu-
facturers, the United Roofing and Mfg
Co, Philadelphia, Chicago or San Fran
CISCO

it's banner exhibition this year. Be
sides the splendid showing of fruits,
live stock, vegetables and household
products, there were splendid exhibits
by the county poor farm and the West
ern Washington Experiment Station,
consisting of more than 40 varieties
of corn, besides potatoes, honey pro-
ducing plants, etc. The dairy display
was most excellent. The new horti-
cultural building added greatly to the
attractiveness and convenience of the
display.
