Serious Accident lis
in Hospital

Still clinging between life and
death with chances for recovery small,
Arthur Armsbury, aged % years, who
was badly injured when struck by a
car of the Grays Harbor Railway &
Light company Friday night, is con-
fined at the st. Joseph hospital.

the time of the accident, Armsburg
was sitting near the track and III Il
leaning position. While turning a
sharp curve, the cars headlight did
not reveal the man until the car was
almost upon him. The mOtorman ap-
piled his brakes, but not in time to
save the man. He was knocked down
and one foot crushed beneath the
rails
But little is known of Arms6ury
For some time he followed the steve

car. He was also subject to the
use of liquor to excess.

BIG SALMON
{ CATCH A L / IS ON
Aberdeen Fishermen Reaping
Biz Harvest---Canneries
All Running

Fishermen ON Grays Harbor have
been busy for the past week reaping
the biggest salmon harvest Of the year,
and as a result every cannery is run
ming to its capacity.
The run of silversides began but a
few days ago, and today finds the
Chehalis river dotted with fishing
boats. 1t is said that many of the
have earned as high as SIS
a day with their nets and traps.
There is every prospect Of an ex-
ceeding heavy run of salmon this
year. 1t is certain. at least, that the
supply will be sufficient to keep the
canneries running at full capacity un-
til the end of the season.
Reports from Quiniault are to the
effect that fishermen in that district
have already met with fair success,
but the heavy run is not expected for
several weeks. The market at pres
ent is good and no difficulty is ex-
perienced by fishermen in selling their
wares.

Judge Drake Injured
The only unpleasant occurrance and
one which somewhat marred the fes-
tivities was the injury of Judge F. k.
Drake and Phil Locke two members
of the Grays Harbor delegation.
The accident which resulted in the
Judge breaking two ribs and receiving
other injuries about the body, occurred
while he, in company with several
others, were returning from the Elk's
hall early in the evening on their
way to the special train.

the work in the evening, and both of
us being rather tired, decided to leave
the rest of the work for the younger
ones,' said the Judge this morning in
relating his experiences. After get
ting a light lunch we left the hail for
the train. On our way there we met
a number of the boys coming back.
We asked them where the Aberdeen
coach was and they told u.s. Instead
of keeping to the narrow plank walk
we cut across and followed the track.

While returning to the car several
other members of the Aberdeen dele

LET DECORATING CONTRACT.

The county commissioners on
Thursday let the contract for the
decorating of the new court house
to o. J.. Oyen of La Crosse. There
were four bidders and three of them
put in bids of $4,000 for the job. while
Mr.. Ovens price was $500. Archi-
tect Bell seemed to favor one of the
higher bids, but the commissioners
thought that the five hundred dollars
was as good to the county as to some
foreign contractor. Mr.. Oyen offered
to put up a cash bond that the work
would be done properly, and whether
or not he puts up a bond the county
pays a nan $3.50 a month to see that
the work is done right. The $500
saved will go quite a little ways in
paying this mans salary. The con
tract for the furnishings was let to the
Associated. Artists of Milwaukee, at
$543. Mr.. Oyen, the decorator, is
the same man who did the decorating
in the Fishback and Mathews houses
and the work was very satisfactory.

UP TO STUDENTS.

In this weeks issue of the Coliegian
James Temple, the college coach, has
an interesting and timely article on
college athletics. Mr.. Temple re-
views conditions during the years
19~01-02-03-04, when he was in charge
of athletics at the college and when
the best track teams in the history
of the institution were turned out.
Mr.. Temple gives a good deal Of the
credit for those great teams to the
spirit of the college students and any
one who was here at that time knows
that he is right. The students sup
ported the team, not only at the
meets, but every afternoon in the
year they were out encouraging the
men, and the townspeople were not
far behind in showing their interest.
Mr.. Temple can deliver the goods"
and if the students do their part we
may expect to regain some Of the
laurels we have lost in the last few
years.
