"Crey" and "Gray,"

What Is the difference. If any. be
tween grey" and gray" aside from
the matter Of spelling:
The editor Of the oxford Dictionary
some years ago made extended inquiry
as to usage aud found that opinions In
London varied Replies to his QueS.
tons showed that In Great Britain the
form grey is the more frequent in use
despite the authority Of Dr. johnson
and later lexicographers. who give the
preference to gray. Many correspond
ents said that they used the two form,
with a difference Of meaning or appli
cation. the distinction most generally
recognized being that grey denotes n
more delicate or lighter tint than gray.
Others considered the difference To I've
that gray IL n warmer color or that II
has a mixture Of red or brown. An
other group held that grey has more Of
sentiment. gray more of color. which
may mean that grey is II suggestion
rather than a positive outline.-New

Every one in the company chooses
an imaginary musical instrument. One
may he violin. another piano. Il
harp. and SO on. The leader of the
band also chooses one. say the flute.
Tie begins to play this imaginary in
strumcnt. running his fingers up and
down 1t and footing away in represen-
tation Of the real instrument. AS soon
as he begins the other players must
follow suit. The piano player begins
to strum an imaginary piano. the vio-
lin player To WELD his bow. and so on.
Not only must the players Initiate the
actions. but also the sounds which pro-
coed from the various Instruments.
During the concert the leader will
suddenly cease playing his flute and
commence playing the violin. when the
violin player must take mp the leaders
discarded flute playing. Presently the
leader will change again. Any player
who fails to take up the leaders in

ON SERIOUS CHARGE
Female Proprietor of Rooming House
Accused of Selling Liquor to
Indians

HOQUIAM, Nov 14.-Mrs. Ethel
O'Bryan, proprietor of the Bartell
rooming house ON Eighth street was
taken into custody by Chief William
Wyrick and officer Bartel Saturday
afternoon on charge of selling wits
key to Indians. The woman put up
800 bail for her appearance in police
court Tuesday afternoon at 2 CLOCK.
The officers raided the house and
found plentiful supply of whiskey
beer and other liquors. The police
state that a number of indians have
volunteered to testify that Mrs.
O'Bryan sold them liquor.
The Bartell rooming house has had
a bad name with the police for a
long time, and is characterized by
them as being one the most disOr.
DERBY houses in the city Recently
the woman was told to clean up the
joint. morally.
Police Judge Philbrick, in speaking
of the case jokingly remarked that he
thought it an excellent opportunity tC
test the new law by calling a jury OF
women. The more the judge thinks
OF the idea the more favorably he is
impressed, since the idea is novel tC
this state and is nothing more than
can be expected since the granting OF
suffrage

Eairies In kaMr Land.

There are fairies Of all kinds In Kaf-
fir Land-so ut least you would be told
by the merry little children whose
dark skins CLEAN like satin rs they
romp and ilay In the sun. When the
long happy day Is over and dusk comes
on they gather around the open fire In
wide circle. and some old woman OF
the tribe stands up and tells them
weird stories OF elves and COLLINS, OF
grim inzimus. or ogres. who do most
dreadful things TO boys and girls who
come under their spells. Fortunately,
however. there is always some good
genius at hand in the shape Of ''rab-
bit prince" or fairy bird" to come to
the rescue. and monster serpents have
n most encouraging way of turning
into noble kings with gorgeous palaces.

For theChildren
How to Photograph
the Frisky Squirrel.

The photographer in search Of a
comparatively rare and fascinating
subject would be well advised to com
bine his or her hobby with that of the
naturalist and. in addition to securing
permanent records, will derive much
pleasure from spending a few hours
or even day with that semiwild, at
tractive little animal, the gray squirrel.
Some precautions are necessary until
you have EGined the confidence of
these shy and reserved pets. as on ac-
count Of their somewhat diminutivc
size they should be photographed at
not less Il distance than four to six
feet. The camera should be used as
near the ground as conveniently pos
sblc and the writer has found kneel-
ing position the most generally desir-
able.
1t will be found that the camera is
viewed with Il certain amount of dis
trust, especially when advancing to
the subject. and whenever possible the
subject should be induced to approach
the camera. Avoid all semblance of
hurry or sudden movements, as the
squirrel once frightened means an Oh
portunitv lost instead of gained. DO
not be in too great n hurry to employ
the camera and the time spent in max
ing observations will enable the pho
tcgrapher to decide what positions to
take and what to avoid wasting his
plates on.

FIRE DAMAGES MILL
Blaze Destroys Dry Kiln and Portion
Of Syversen Plant at Montesano
Last Week

MONTESANO, Nov. 14.--Fire of un
known origin, last Wednesday night
destroyed the big new dry kiln of the
Syversen Mill company located on
the river south of this city and in
flicted considerable damage on the
mill building, itself. Only the most
determined efforts Of the volunteer
fire fighters saved the entire property
from destruction, it is said. The fact
that heavy rains had dampened every
thing exposed to it, aided the fire
fighters to a great extent.
