rived in today's mail, and also per-
mltteQ Harlan TO get Ddck on the

petition, but withdrew several days
ago in favor of McCredie. Today he

A. CURIOSITY.

Upon examining a leak in the
water pipe in South Aberdeen yester-
day, Supt McDougall discovered that
the cause of the leak was rare curl
osity. A small stone had lodged in
a corporation cock, three-fourths of
an inch in diameter. Attached to
the cock was a service pipe, and the
lower half of the brass cock and iron
pipe were worn completely away by
the action of the water. The stone
lodged in such manner as to cause
the water, which is under heavy
pressure, to drive sharply upon the
lower side of the pipe. Mr.. McDou-
gall says that in all his experience
he never saw anything similar.

UNCLE JOSH PERKINS"

"Uncle Josh Perkins," the great
comedy success, is down for an en-
gagement of one night at the Grand
theater on Saturday, October 8. The
play is built on original lines and is
said to be presented by a brilliant
company, who made the most posi-
BILE out of every type of character en-
acted, while built largely for laugh
ing purposes, there is enough pa
thOs, human interest and thrilling
situations unfolded to suit all classes
of men, women and children too. The
forthcoming engagement of this
compay will doubtless attract I'M
usual attention from the playgoers
of Aberdeen.

FINED TWENTY DOLLARS.
J. P. Hendrcn of the o. X. Barber
Shop Pays for Defending His
Rights.

On Tuesday afternoon j. F. Hen
dron, proprietor of the o. K. barber
shop, was fined $40 and costs in the
police court, for eXpelling man
named Murray from his shop with a
poker.
Mr. Hendron who has been run
ming his shop on city ideas, has
been annoyed by the BARRIERS of
other shops, and Notwithstanding
the fact that he pays his men $40
per week, which is SO more than
union wages, the secretary of the
BARRIERS union has been steering the
men away from Hendron's to other
places of employment. On the wit
ness stand Murray stated that he
was offered work at the o. X. at
the secretary he went to work in
another shop at ST.. This did not
tend to molify the feelings of Mr..
Hendron towards those who inter-
fered with his business.
On Monday, Murray entered the O.
X. shop and proceeded to unburden
his mind as to the heightened meth
DDS used in that shop, ending by
daring Hendron to put him out.
Hendron picked up poker and
Murray vacated, and had Mr.. Hen
dron arrested for assault.
In court Hendron plead guilty to
assault, but when he was handed a
fine Of $40 and costs he, was sOr-
jury.

WARNS LUMBERMEN
Secretary Beckman Warns Lumber
men Against Accepting Ambi-
guous Orders.

Warnings not to accept orders for
which the specifications are ambigu-
Gus have been sent out to lumbermen
by Victor II. Beckman, secretary of
the Pacific Coast Lumber Manufac-
turers' Association. Mr.. Beckman S
warning is result of trouble that
recently developed between Coast
shippers and an Eastern purchaser.
Following is the note sent to North
west millmen:
Recently Chicago firm, that
buys considerable quantities of car
material, placed orders with some
mills on Puget Sound, as we'll as in
Portland, for No. 2 and better car
siding, with the following specifica-
tion added: Angle of grain to be so
that it will not shell or peel The
mills that took this business sorted
out of their stock the lumber that had
an absolutely flat grain and shipped
the balance. 1t appears that this
has been rejected and that the lum-
Der company is demanding verticf
grain stock.
"A specification of this kind is one
that is calculated to mislead lumber
companies and to cause them consid-
cradle loss. The specifications
should call for either vertical grain
or slash grain stock. and these am
biguous terms should be eliminated
