The robbers beat hasty retreat and

A unique spread indeed was the
lumber camp supper prepared and
served by men in the basement of the
Methodist church on Tuesday even
ing. It was real old-fashioned bean
feast with frills and trimmings la
lumberjack- kind that reminded
many of the old timers of bygone
days. It was something new to the
young folks, but the manner in which
they shovele1 in the grub demon
strated that they enjoyed the novelty.
Brown bread, sour dough biscuit,
doughnuts, prunes, cookies, mince pie,
fare and the waiters-F. L. Lowell
and Frank Walker-were kept ever
lastingly on the trot catering to the
two hundred people who partook OF
the repast. E. M. Farnham was head
waiter and he took particular pains
to see that everyone in camp was
furnished with food in plenty.
Jack Van Alstein was the cook, and
he certainly prepared the beans in fine
style. Jack dug hole on the north
east corner of his residence property
and there baked the beans in the good
old way. He watched and waited

done to a turn. The cookies were

Births Deaf
Using a Ring Life Pres.rver.

On all steamships and many docks
are life preservers of the ring type,
to be thrown to persons struggling in
the water. The proper way to grasp or
approach such preserver in the
water is to take hold of the side
nearest you and press down with all
your might. The best thing to put new
life into person after struggling in
the water is golden grain belt beer as
all who have tried it will agree.

Fire in Potato Warehouse.

At 1870 on Friday morning smoke
was discovered issuing from the brick
potato warehouse of Geo. E. Rice &
Co. and an investigation disclosed the
fact that the wooden lining of the
cellar was smouldering. The fire de-
partment was quickly on the scene
and an extinguishment of the flames
was effected within a few minutes with
the chemical engine. It is estimated
that about two hundred bushels of seed
potatoes were rendered valueess by
contact with the chemical solution
none we're affected by the fire. The
stock was insured with the First
National bank agency.
How the fire originated is a
mystery, as the stove was con-
siderable distance from the woodwork
and it is one of those substantial
heaters Of the pattern used in rail-
road stations. The stovepipe is also
new with perfect joints. Mr.. Rice is
still trying to figure out how it was
possible for the fire to occur.

Letter Recovered From Oceans Depths.
William Hatch on Friday rec ,ived a
letter which had lain in the bottom of
the ocean for almost two months.
The letter was mailed in Princeton
and addressed to Mr.. Hatch at
Cordova, Alaska, but the vessel
which carried it was wrecked. A
printed notice on the postofice de-
partment envelope which contained
the letter read as follows: 1.-THE
damage to the mail herein was caused
by the sinking of the S. S. Ohio on
August rs, 1909, at Heikish Narrows,
B. G. Mail recovered October %,
1909" After recovery the letter was
forwarded to Cordova and from there
sent back to Princeton. The address
on the envelope and the postmark
were distinct but the letter, having
been written with copying ink, was
blurred from the effects of the water.
Mr.. Hatch intended returning to
Seattle in the vessel which was
wrecked.

AS to Governor Eberhart.

Little or nothing was known of
Adolf O. Eberhart before the demise
OF Governor Johnson. AS an acting
governor he at first promised we'll.
He was accepted on the basis of his
initial statement that he had come to
the governorship by an act of Provi-
dence and that his wish was to do
that which was pleasing to the con-
stituency which had made John A.
johnson governor. We have seen but
one conspicuous departure from that
policy. That was in the matter Of the
Seabury bill. The governor not only
singed it, but coupled his approval
with statement which seemed to re-
fleet upon the motives of his predeces-
sor in vetoing it.
Whether that departure was dictated
by the supposed necessities of an
active reaching after the republican
nomination, we do not know. But
we believe that the governor is max
ing the number of speeches he is now
making. on the great variety of topics
he now treats. afternoons and even
ings, in frank chase of that honor.
We have no quarrel with him for
putting himself forward as a candi-
date, but We wish he could put his
candidacy upon some substantial
foundation. The governor excuses
himself from saying anything on
general topics on the ground that ii
might "bind the republican party" il
be was nominate He, therefore,
talks freely upon everything which he
imagines is not binding, forgetting,
apparently, that the party will be
most bound by the mental attitude Of
the man it dominates.
Whether the candidate is a staunch
man with real convictions on a few
subjects will . count more with the
voters than whether he is a ready
man with a. pliable mind on multitu.
