The Man Who Eats.

The man who eats does so with
the expectation Of being satisfied. To
this end he seeks the best possible
place to crafty his normal appetite at
most rational expense. These things
account for the steady stream Of
people to and from the portals of the
Palace Restaurant in this city. The
reputation Of the Palace is founded
immoveably upon the certainty and
amplitude of the service it renders to
every purse, and appetite, big and
little. Open day and night. Com

YOUNG CLATSOPIAN XII.
LED IN THE NORTH
LOSES HIS LIFE BY HIS OWN
RIFLE IN TAKING 1T
FROM SHELF.

The sad intelligence reached this
city, from two sources, yesterday, OF
the accidental death OF young
Clatsopian, Herbert Butterfeld,
student Of Stanford University; the
| first coming from the hand Of Mrs.
/ c. A. Gearhart, an aunt OF the unfor-
tunate youth, who was apprised by
mail, Of the sad circumstance, from
Angleton, Texas, by Hayden Butter
/ field a brother; and the other intima-
tion reaching this Office by way OF
marked copy OF the account Of the
death in the Daily Columbian Of New
Westminster, B. C., which is append.
ed hereto.
Young Mr.. Butterfeld, was just Is
years of age. and was a son Of Mr..
and Mrs. Charles B. Butterheid, and
was born on the family farm on Clat-
sop Plains; the entire family being
well and happily known all over this
section of Oregon. Mrs. Butterheld,
who has been widow, is wintering
this year with two sons, Charles and
Hayden, at Angleton, Texas, and re-
ceived the shocking news from the
north on the 9th of last month. The
subject Of this unhappy account was
a fine, manly fellow, devoted stu
dent; and young man Of excellent
character and bright prospects. He
was a nephew Of Mrs. S. L. Byrd and
of J. w. Gearhart.
The published story of the acci-
dent as given by the Columbian,
above alluded TO, is as follows:
"The accidental death of Herbert
Butterfeld, Stanford University
student, who was well known in this
city, is reported from the Squamish
valley and friends have gone north
to remove the body to this city for
interment. The young man lost his
life last Wednesday morning through
the accidental discharge Of rife, the
explosion having occurred, so far as
has been learned, while he was re-
moving it from shelf in the cabin.
"Messrs. Madden, the mail carrier,
H McKeen, and an Indian freighter,
called Jimmy, called at Butterfeld's |
cabin on Wednesday to tell him that
they had brought up a stove for him
in their canoe They found the young |
man sick in bed, but he got up and
cooked dinner for the party After
dinner Madden and McKeen started
out towards the river TO return with !

HOSE NO. ONE BOYS
HAPPY ONCE MORE
HALLTARDS WERE ROVE ON
THEIR ITO FOOT FLAG POLE
YESTERDAY MORNING

There was eonsumated in this city
yesterday an achievement that
brought intense qualification to Ed,
I.lcwellyn and all the boys Of Hose
! No. /, at the corner Of Fourth and
Astor streets, being no less a thing
than the reaving OF a brand new set
of dag halliards from the top OF the
ll0-foot pole that has stood there for
the past Is years, and for 10 OF which
they have been unServed, the young.
sters at the old Olney school having,
as one Of their pet indulgences. cut
the old halliards, pulled them out Of
the block at the polehead, and made
them into iumping-ropes for the
scores OF kiddies then in attendance
there.
Ever since the FIRE department took
up its quarters in the building and the
school passed TO other quarters, Ed,
Llewllyn and his colleagues have
wanted those halliards served again,
bur have never found anyone plucky
enough to tackle the supposedly rot
ten staff; plenty Of men were agile
and handy enough, but they all had
an exaggerated idea OF the insecurity
of the timber and declined 10 ascend
it.
Yesterday morning, there appeared
at the FIRE quarters there, a hardy
looking young man, who gave his
name as D. 0. Kennedy who pre-
sented his card signifying that he
was steeplejack. from Los Angeles,
and asked Mr.. Lleweilyn il he knew
of any work in his line 1t instantly
occurred TO he well known driver
that here was chance to achieve the
long-desired task OF fixing up the
companys pole for flag use. and he
named the matter to Mr.. Kennedy.
An examination was made OF the
timber at the sidewalk base, and the
eornice of the building against which
the pole is banded in with iron. ard
Kennedy declared he would do il for
a modest sum, whereupou the boys"
in 10 the amount named and
after receiving the assurance from
the man from Los Angeles that he
would hold them harmless from all
bad results that might ensue. he
Skinned no the wayering, swaying
pole like a kitten, served the line
through the block and brought it
down and turned the free end over
to Llewellyn, the whole transaction
occupying exactly IA minutes.
In less time than that, a fine
example Of "old Glory was floating
from the masthead, the first emblem /
Of honor in behalf Of Inauguration |
Day to be sent aloft in this city.
Mr.. Kennedy said that he found the
pole stiff and steady and good for ten
years more Of service. He cut into /
the base and found that it had rot
ted to a depth of four inches, and |
this decay gradually reduced itself as
It ascended and the upper and major !
part Of the pole was practically sound |
as a dollar At all events, the work !
is we'll done and Hose No. men are !
mighty glad Of it. Their flag will now
fly upon all proper occasions.

would catch up with them in a few

They hurried back and found the
