Many Entertain at Dinner

AS advertised, all of the principal
stores in Aberdeen were closed on
Thanksgiving Day, and proprietorv
and clerks We're able to spend the
day as befitted the occasion.
The different churches united in
a union service at the Presbyterian
church, the sermon by Rev. F.. F..
w. Greene and the vocal solos by
Mrs. Guy Halferty and Miss Minnie
Cogger being the features of the SER
vice. The sermon was peculiarly ap-
propriate and was well delivered
and the solos were well rendered,
both ladies being in fine voice.
The principal dinner of the day,
was without doubt, that given to the
newsboys of Grays Harbor, of whom
there We're over so present, by Louis
H. Burnett. Mr.. Burnett was also
the host of the publishers at the same
time, who with their wives assisted
him in making the occasion a great
success.
George F.. Nye was host to the
usl1ers of the Grand in the evening,
the dinner being served at the Wash
ington after the performance at the
theater.
Among those who entertained at
home dinner We're:
Mr.. and Mrs. j. H. Fuller. Mr.. and
Mrs. ID. M. BOwes, DR.. and Mrs. w.

Mr.. and Mrs. c. Damitio, Mr.. and
Mrs. j. R. Evans. Mr.. and Mrs. o.

Trask, Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Hawkes.,
Mr.. and Mrs. w. b. Fetterman, M.

to show that Aberdeen has the
American spirit.
In the afternoon Aberdeen contest
ed with Hoquiam for the interscho-
lastic championship on the gridiorn,
these two high schools having de-
feated all others in the southwest
Washington. The game ended in ia

BURNETT BROS. OPENING

The inclemency of the weather
proved no deterring element in the
annual holiday opening Of Burnett
Bros, 1.-The jewellers. The salesroom
was beautifully decorated with floral
and electric light effects; a splendid
musical program was rendered by
Prof. Gylfe's string orchestra, and
the large number in attendance, con-
sidering the weather, was very sat-
isfactory.
The display in the salesroom was
we'll worthy of the visit to all pres
ent. Space-and the writer's tech
nical knowledge Of the jewelers. art
ARE too limited for any attempt at
description. An article that attract
ed attention was "Grandfather's"
clock, for the exhibition of which
Burnett Bros. received gold medal
at the A. Y. P. exposition at Seat
tie. The clock. standing ceiling
high, is in a beautifully hand carved
mohogany case. and strikes the hours
half hours and quarter hours in five
different chimes, each Of them mus
ical gem.

THE RECORD STORM
The Storm of the Past Three Days
Breaks Record on Grays Har-
Dor Wires Down

The storm prevailing for the last
few days makes record on Grays
Harbor, both for velocity of wind
. and fall or rain. 1t has one benefl-
cial effect, which is to reveal to
visitors what they may expect-even
If not so frequent.
: The high winds, accompanied by
rain on Saturday. yesterday and this
morning were beyond the ordinary,
in fact, in the minds OF old settlers,
no such storm Is recalled. There
have been as many revelations OF
the winds velocity and the volume
of rainfall. but one, two or three US
ually settled the matter. In the
present instance about three weeks
have been occupied with this storm
and quite a little damage has been
done.
Aside from the damage by the
overflow Of the Chehalis river boom
last week there has been reported
that the high tide Of last night
flooded East Hoquiam; carried out
the ferry at that city, and so over
flooded the dikes as to threaten SER
iouS injury.
The heavy rains Of yesterday ov-
erflowed the banks of the Wishkah
river to an extent that caused some
RATS to work loose from the boom
but so far as we can learn this
morning, they have been recovered
with but a nominal loss.

COMING SESSION OF CONGRESS
WILL BE LIVELY.
insurgents Will Be Very Prominent.
Speaker Cannon will Have Many
Foes Who Have Become EmbOid-
ened by Developments Attending
and Following New Tariff.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 27.-On the
face of things the coming long ses-
sion" of congress, which will begin
on Monday, December 6. should be
interesting by comparison with those
which have preceded it. With the
great revenue measure, the tariff,
out of the way, the chief work should
center on the appropriation bills.
But any one who thinks that con-
gress this winter Is to lack ginger
and excitement is sadly mistaken.
This is the year for the manufacture
of campaign ammunition and am
munition a-plenty is to be manu-
factured.
Champ Clark, the Democratic lead
er of the house, judging by his re-
cent Ann ArbOr speech, proposes to
play the time-honored game Of STIR
ring up the animals on the Repub-
lican side and making them bite one
another Marse Henry Watterson,
with his loud cries of Roosevelt
conspiracy" and his emphatic de-
clarations, backed up by his offer to
bet on the truth Of his statement,
that Taft and Roosevelt are at
swords points, is helping along the
good work If the Republicans want
to fight among themselves the Demo-
cratic minority is quite willing to
help them into a fighting frame of
mind. Sic em says Marse Henry.
Out in the Middle West. your
Uncle Joseph Cannon has become
thoroughly aroused over the long
continued cries of Cannonism and is
Il. ut n y
" in keepingwith his Quaker an
cestry For Mr.. Herbert Parsons, of
Now York, he has acquired bitter
dislike. Mr.. Parsons has charged
that the house leaders made deal
with the Tammany Democrats in the
recognition of the house last summer
and the speaker says he proposes to
make Mr.. Parsons prove it. Mr.
Parson in recent months has kept
pretty much in the limeiiShI and
has figured as an accuser in many
incidents, in which the alleged mis-
doings of public officials have played
q part in that strange mixture
known as New York state politics,
No matter what was started, Mr..
Parsons could be relied on for red
hot interview on the subject.
The insurgents in the house en-
couraged by evidence of insurging
in the senate, and backed by Champ
Clark and his followers, say that
they may, that they hope to, that
they think they will upset the Re-
publican majority, depose Speaker
Cannon and bring about new meth
cd of conducting business in the pop
ular branch of congress. A list or
forty-five Republicans Insurgents
has been given out as being sure TO
stand together on all questions
where it is apparent there is a
chance to develop parliamentary
status in which the present organiza-
ton can be attacked. Oddly enough
the name of Miles Poindexter rep
resentative from the Third district
of Washington, does not appear on
the list, although from his record
last spring one would imagine that
he could be relied on to insurge at
any and all times. This list includes
so it is declared, merely the necleus
of an organization and that much
help will be received, considerable
of the help coming from the Demo-

Two calls ana two runs, was the
record for the fire department on

be a chimney burning on Market

serious. A lodgtr in the Wishkah

and when he awoke his bed clothes
were on fire. He supposed he had
died. No loss in either case only

CUTICURA NET WITH
ITS USUAL SUCCESS

II have two little girls who have been
troubled very badly With eczema. One
OF them had it on her lower limbs. I
did everything that could hear OF for
her, but it did not give in until warm
weather when it seemingly subsidized:
The next winter when it became cold
weather the eczema started again and
also in her head where it would take the
hair out and leave bare patches as large
as a quarter Of dollar. AT the same
time her arms were sore the whole
length OF them. I took her to a ply
sician and he said that she bad two
distinct types Of eczema. l continued
with him for several weeks and the
child grew worse all Of the time Her
sisters arms were also affected in the
same way. My husband came home
one day with box Of Cuticura Oint-
ment and a cake of Cuticura Soap. I
began using them and also the Cuticura
Pills and by the time the second lot was
used their skin was soft and smooth as
it had not been before for the winter.
We keep the Cuticura Soap and Cuti,
cura Ointment constantly by us and
when any little roughness or irritation
appears on their skin quickly dispel it
with the Cuticura Remedies. My husband
has used them with most satisf actory
results for sore head which has troub-
led him from childhood. Mrs. Charles
