Tacoma, Junse IT, 1910.
Editor The Times.
Dear Sir: I would like to make
a few remarks in regard to the
way the people have and will be
treated about the stadium. 1t
looks to me as though we are be-
coming twin sister to what the
world knows as the City of Graft
(Seattle). I furnished four chill
dren and bought what was re-
luired for them to have their per-
formances, which was of no fur
Their use, but when / learned there
would be a Csc admission for me
to see my own children perform,
rebelled. One of the teachers re-
quested my wife to be there to
take care of her children after the
drill, but my wife was like myself,
and only for Disappointing the
children they would not have been
there either, and If every common
man will do as shall in the fu-
ture there will be very little money
to buy diamonds with hereafter,
for as long as it will cost one
penny to go into what we have a
right to see free, not one of my
children will ever take part in it
again.
Yours very respectfully,
A SUBSCRIBER.

OF all unlucky princes who
have had to go without their king
dom Bonnie Prince Charlie Stuart
of Scotland was one of the best
loved. He was happy youth,
fair to look upon and fond of ad-
venture, of which he had a great
deal.
Scottish people were angry be-
caust their parliament had been
united with that of England.
Now when the English and French
were fighting, 1t seemed a good
time to gain their liberty. Ac-
Icordingly this brave prince sci
out to overthrow powerful King
George III.
He landed in Scotland with few
followers, but soon won the High.
land chiefs for his friends. For
"a while he lived In his ancestral
palace at Holyrood. But, as the
English were advancing, he had to
call his army together. Then came
"a great battle at Culloden moor,
when Prince Charlie was defeated.
The English offered large re-
ward for his capture and he had
great trobule in concealing him
self. Poor as many Hightlanders
were they loved him and would
not tell his hiding places. Many
times he had to sleep out doors
wrapped in his plaid. At one time
even band of robbers hid him
for several days.
At last the English soldiers al
most caught him, when a brave
girl, Flora Macdonald by name,
aided him to escape by dressing
him In some of her clothes. The
soldiers thought Prince Charlie
was girl friend visiting Flora
and went away. Then when able
to get away safely Flora rowed
him in boat to Skye.
A short time later a French
boat rescued him and he left
Scotland heartbroke because he
could not gain the throne for the
lstuarts.

grandma remembered me in her
will and was really fond of me
because she had never seen me.
And would l come to Pea Vine
and see about the legacy?
Then I realized what a loss
Grandma Chutney was, and ! felt
like my ha-ha-heart was almost
broke.
Grandma Chutney was sort OF
odd. Very retiring in her old age,
in her young days she was with
Mr.. P. T. Barnum's well-known
circus. I looked at her portrait
and wondered could this noble
old lady ever have been a trick
bicycle rider? But such she was
before she settled down in peace
full Pea Vine.
l wonder what amount of rocks
she willed to muh. Me for Pea
Vine on the next train.

On account of that most un-
pleasant experience met with by
Mr.. j. l.. Roberts Friday night,
the machinists wish to have it
known that no machin1st was con-
nected with it in any way, as Mr..
Roberts is held in great esteem
by all who have worked for him,
and he has their sympathy. AS
to the present trouble of the ma
chinists in their effort to get the
eight-hour day, there is no hard
feeling against any particular
shop owner, as they are only try
ing to uphold principle bound to

"But how does IT lower the
dignity of the house?" gasped the
Fool Man.
The boss puffed up and dis
missed the Fool Man without
further discourse. 1t was folly to
argue, he said, with a man SO
idiotic as to ask such question
as that.
The Fool Man went away an
cry. He'd show 'em!* He'd go
hatless thenceforward till the
judgment day, and, furthermore,
he would prove that bareheaded
man COULD open this mundane
oyster, and do 1t with dexterity
and dispatch.
One month later he spent his
last nickel for a sandwich OF
weinies and sauerkraut in a res
taurant run as a side issue in a
shooting gallery.
Sitting on a revolving stool, he
revolved the Problem of Life in
his mind.
He found himself face to face
with alternatives grim and mex
|orable. There was no third course
open.
1t was up to him to go down to
the bridge and jump into the
river or to go back to the wearing
of hats.

Man-a-Iin an Ideal Laxative,
Not & Candidate.

Apropos our political forecast and
comment last week, Probate Judge
Brockinton desires the statement
made that he is not, nor will he be-
candidate for county treasurer in the
next primary election. He says that
he has been approached by number
of his friends and urged to enter
she race for this Office, but that,
while he greatly appreciates these
assurances of confidence and sup
port, he had been elected by the
people to the office he now holds and
in view of the fact that he still has
two more years to serve, he deems
it his duty to his constituents to
serve the full term to which he
was elected.
