MIR. CANBY LECTURES HERE.

AT the New Century Club on Tues
day evening, Henry S. Candy, of Yale
University, lectured on John Mase-
field, London Man of Letters" Mr..
Candy, who was a former Whining
tonian, was introduced by Mrs.
Charles F. Wollaston, president of
the club as "one of wilmington's sons
who has done honor to himself and
whom We are glad to honor" and in
response to the Introduction stated
that he considered himself fortunate
in not being without honor in his
own country.
Mr. Candy said he had not much
personal knowledge Of John Mase-
field. although letters had been ex-
changed, and he had met those who
had a personal acquaintance With
the author. Whether Masefeld's
verse, Mr.. Candy said, is poetry or
not, it is dramatic and fresh.

day. Certainly they agree, the
matter must be settled by the major
ity opinion and not by a few.
In many respects the best of ar.
guments can be held out for reor-
ganization. The city has grown be-
yond the point where haphazard at
tention to public affairs will get re-.
suits. One secretary and a president
cannot accomplish results without the
united backing of the members. Men,
bers cannot LIE drawn together nor
their interest aroused unless there is
some common plane where all may
meet, not once in a stated period, but
frequently. For this reason if for no
other, it is argued that the CONNER
cial club idea should be adopted.
Another matter to be taken up by
the club today will be county organiza.
ton, on which L. H. Brewer, of Ho-
quiam, president of the Southwest
Washington Development association,
will speak. 1t is understood that Mr..
Brewer seeks to form some plan for
cooperation by various clubs in things
pertaining to the entire county at a
minimum of expense.

CHIEF QUINN
GETS SUSPECT
Howard Clancy, Suspected
of Burglary, Arrested
in Oregon

HOQUIAM, Apr. 1.-Chief of Police
T. M. Quinn returned from Portland
Sunday with Howard Clancy, the
young man suspected of having robbed
lodging house on I street Friday.
AS the warrant for Clancy's arrest
was sworn out at Aberdeen he will
be taken before the justice today for
arraignment
Chief Quinn did not find requisi.
tion proceedings necessary to get his
prisoner out of Oregon, as Clancy was
removed across the river to Vancou-
yer before he could communicate with
a lawyer. He declared to the officers
that he did not know anything about
the robbery.
A strong box containing $16O was
taken from the landlady's bureau and
she did not learn of her loss until no.
titled day later by the police. to
whom the battered box was delivered
by the finders, members of the sec.
ton crew.

for San Pedro. She carries 10000
feet Of lumber and 100000 lath from
the Lytle mill and 5000, 900 shingles

The Hooper is the last word in lum-
Der carriers and has the greatest ca
pacity of any vessel in the coastwise
trade-2,500,0OO feet of lumber. Her
length is 29O feet, draft 1S feet and
speed 1871 knots. Her triple-expan-
sion engines develop 1850 horsepow-
er double-boom derricks are able to
lift from 1000 to 5000 feet of lum-
ber at load, and with four slings
going most of the time and 40 steve
dores employed she was loaded in
less time than is required for ves-
sells of half her carrying capacity.
The vessel carries no passengers
but has excellent quarters for officers
and crew, numbering 35. She was
the mecca of large number of Wis.,
ftors from Hoquiam and Aberdeen
Sunday.

LOCAL ELKS
HELPLAY STONE

Thirty.one members of Aberdeen
lodge No. 593, B. P. o. Elks, made
the trip over the Milwaukee road
Saturday afternoon, to Seattle, where
that night they assisted in laying
the cornerstone for magnificent
Elks temple to be built in the ELL
lott bay city. The services, which
were held at II o'clock, were un-
der direct charge Of the Seattle
lodges, who had the assistance of
several hundred visiting brothers.
Those who went from Aberdeen re-
port a splendid time. The delega-
ton was met on it's arrival at the
union station by several hundred Sc
attic Elks who formed a double line
three deep, across the main waiting
room. The depot was decorated with
alternate strands of purple and white
electric lights
Exercises in connection with the
laying of the cornerstone were quite
elaborate, and the Elks of Seattle
proved themselves royal entertainers,
both before and after the event. The
Aberdeen delegation returned yes.

CLUB MATTER
IS UP AGAIN

Final attempt to find some plan
whereby all members of the Cham
Der of Commerce can be suited in re.
organization of that body into a Com
mercial club, will be taken up at the
weekly luncheon at the Hotel Wash
ington today. The committee in
charge of reorganization work may
or may not have a definite plan to
submit in lieu of the one turned down
last week. The committee will un-
doubtedly have some suggestions to
plan in detail, preferring to let the
members work out their future by
discussion. There is almost certain
to be large attendance, for discus
sion of any disputed point always
serves to arouse interest.
So far as can be learned, members
of the Chamber want rooms, with
club features, but of sufficient size
so that mass meetings can be held
NOAhC AoNOi luAullOuo lul-
nishings. Others prefer a more eau
tious course. All, it is believed, want
the rooms furnished to a degree of
comfort compatible with the dignity
of an influential public organization.
Some members are opposed to
changing the name of the chamber.
Others believe that if the body is to
become a Commercial club in the real
sense, it should be so termed.
A few believe that the Chamber of
Commerce can be brought to enthu-
siastic life again without reorganiza.
ton and that all that is needed, is
that members show a little more in
terest. All are agreed on the latter
point. The question is whether inter.
est can be started again without re.
organization. 1t is believed the ma.
jority thinks not.
1t is the earnest desire of officials
and trustees of the Chamber to settle
the question one way or the other to.

HARB0R MILL
MAKES RECORD
Cuts More Lumber in 1912
Than Any Other Mill
Excepting One

According to statistics compiled by
the West Coast Lumberman, the Ho.
quiam Lumber & .shingle company
cut more lumber in 1912 than any
mill in the Northwest with the ex.
ception of the c. A. Smith mill at
Marshfield, Ore. and the Fraser
mill at New Westminster, B. c. The
Smith mill is really half dozen mills
in one, and probably the largest in
the world. 1t is also one of the most
modern.
Many mills of the Northwest have
larger capacities than the Hoquiam
plant mentioned, but this one Sc
cured its place near the head of the
list by keeping everlastingly at it,"
The capacity of this mill is being
increased by about $4,000 a day by
the addition Of 12-inch Wicks gang
which is expected to be ready for op-
GRAFTON by May /

APPLE EATING
CAMPAIGN

Saturday, April 5th. 1913, will be
Apple Day in Washington by exc.
cutive proclamation and universal
sanction.
The object of the day is to get
the public better acquainted with ap-
pies, and since someone has suggested
the movement, it behooves all the
rest of us to fall into line and par
take of the palatable product of the
orchard.
The Oregon-Washington Railroad &
Navigation Company will distribute
apples free of charge on it's dining
cars on that day.
The apples grown in the North
west surpass in beauty of appear
ance, uniformity of size and excel
lence of quality those grown in any
other section of the United States,
and no locality in the world yields
fruit that excels the fruit of this Sec
tion Of the American continent.
There's something in the air, the soil
and the sunshine which blend to
bring about perfection.
All this is true, and yet We have
not begun to sound the praise of this
King of Fruits.
Observe the day by eating apples.
Get the habit. 1t means health to
those who partake, bids defiance to
the pharmacists concoctions and
mocks at the medical profession.
AS a matter of fact an apple is
good eatin." What more can any
reasonable person expect In the way
of diet?

IS ARRESTED

After getting away with money Sc
cured on fraudulent checks in this
city. Hoquiam, Bellingham. Colflax,
Olympia and other places, w. L. VIII.
sen has been arrested by the police
o1icers Of Centralia. Wilson signed
Tie name Of Webber to checks given
in this city and used various names
In other places. His plan was after
reaching a city. to look up a vacant
house, then order goods sent to the
number of the vacant building. He
would give a check signed with the
name of we'll known person en-
dorse it and receive the cash diff
ference between the amount of the
check and the bill of goods. Web
ber, or Wilson, dealt in small checks
and usually fixed the amount between
$1s and $40.
After his operations in Hoquiam
and the methods Of the man had
been made public, he came to Aber-
deem and presented check to Mark
Payette, after ostensibly buying a
phonograph and ordering it sent to
Hoquiam. Payette gave the cash diff
ference and learned Of the trick that
had been played when he took the
phonograph to Hoquiam. Wilson, how
ever, had left the city.
From Aberdeen Wilson went to
Bellingham, then to Olympia, Colfax
and other places. He had been so
vell advertised that when he played
his scheme in Centralia, the officers
were right after him. In Centralia
he gave the name of w. E. Watson.
He was sentenced, after pleading gull.

To Visit State Institutions
About April 8 Gov Lister will leave,

He plans to visit most of the state

to call loudly for more, and point oua
