OWN AUTOMOBILE

PROSSER, Wash, Sept. &C.
Wilder, photographer. is dead to-
day, the victim of his own automo-
bile. He was standing in front of
the machine cranking it. when.
without warning. the heavy car
dashed forward, entangled him in
the machinery, dragged him a few
feet and then stopped. He died al
most instantly from a broken neck
Many persons were passing along
the street at the time and noticed
nothing peculiar A number who
saw his feet protruding from be-
meath the automobile thought he
was at work making repairs.
1t was fully an hour after the ac-
cident before it was learned that
Wilder was dead.

And now it's the crematory de-
partment. It's first one department
at the city hall and then another,
but an odor seems to issue from the
crematory department all of the
time.
But just now the crematory de-
partment is the center of all the
fire. c. d. Harmon, present super
intendent, was Pratt supporter in
the last municipal election. He is
well meaning fellow, but seems
to lack discretion.
Who the next superintendent will
be has not yet been determined,
but tentative offer of the place
has already been made to one man.
Harmon's most recent exploits is
the sying on his men. The other
day in the alley in the rear of Main
avenue to the north he was caught
by crew of men with one of the
wagons. The man took after Har-
mon and chased him to the Great
Northern depot, where he was cap
tured. He was taken back to the
wagon, placed on the seat, and told
to drive the rig to the barn, that
the men were done with him and
the job.
The other night one of the bosses
at the crematory saw man skulk-
ing in the shadows of the barn. He
gave chase and when he caught up
with his man he found it was Har-
mon. Such tactics, carried on for
months, have disorganized the
crematory force, and helped to
make the institution financial
loss to the city.

WATER is RAISING.

The work at Rothschilds has so fai
advanced that the gates of the dam
were closed last Saturday morning,
The dam at once began to back up
water. On Sunday the Brooks &
Ross dam at Schofield was opened
and also those up river. The river
bed so long dry is now covered with
water, and the water is fast rising.
Mills which have been hampered all
summer on account of the up river
dams being closed, can run full blast
until freezing up tine. Nearly all
manufacturing institutions on the
river have, to more or less extent,
been retarded in their work by the
low water occasioned by the building
Of this dam.
There is still much work to do at
the Rothschilds plant before it will
be ready to commence manufacture
ing paper. The supply of pulpwood
on hand is not sufficient to keep the
mill in operation for any great length
of time. One building is still in
process of construction.

played until six O'Clock at which hour
refreshments were served in the din
ing room which was made especially
attractive in its profusion of flowers.
In the center of the room was large
table upon which were artistically ar
