CITY SCHOOLS
STILL GROWING
Increase Of 220 Over Second Week ot
Last Year-Many Come From
Outside Points.

Evidently enrolment at the city
schools of Aberdeen has not yet reach.
ed it's limit, and probably will not for
several weeks. On Monday morning
80 new pupils appeared at the various
schools about the city making total
now of 1895. The first of next week
is expected to see this number in
creased beyond the 1000 mark.
Most of the new students are from
outside points, all parts Of the county
contributing. Elma and McCleary are
represented by number of pupils. In
some cases entire families have moved
here for the express purpose of af.
fording the children the advantages
of city schools.
No tuition is charged outside stu
dents. The schools are open to any
one who cares to enter, from within
or outside the county.
Aberdeen's high school has every IA
cility usually found in the high schools
of much larger cities, and the en-.
rollment this year now totals 336, an
increase of "a over the same period OF
last year. Most of the pupils from out
side points are found in the higl
school.

best and most important of the week.
and many noted horses were on the
track. AS is usual with race horses,
favorites fell behind, and unknown ami
mails carried off many of the honors,
causing much excitement. The lead
ing event of the races, with the with
drawal of the Fair association from the
American Trotting association, follow
ing the refusal of the local association
to withhold 25 per cent of the earn
ings of the winners on telegraphic in
structions from headquarters of the
former at Chicago, claiming the own
ers of horses were in arrears with the
American association. This action
forces the Grays Harbor County Fair
in the outlaw class.
Lack of space precludes the Herald
from publishing the hundreds of win
ners for various exhibits, but those
who have attended the local fair year
after year since its inception, are
unanimous that the one just closed, for
a county situated as Grays Harbor is,
has never been equalled in the state.

REDMOND SLOUGH
CLAIMS VICTIM
Wallace Mason, Seven.Year.Old Boy
Drowned Near Melbourne Saturday
While Bathing. Falls
From Log.

Disregarding instructions of his old
er brother, Leo, not to 60 swimming
little Wallace Mason, 7-year-old son Ol
Mr.. and Mrs. Clyde Mason, who live
near Melbourne, was drowned Satur.
day morning in Redmond slough, while
bathing with several other boys. s9
The lad, after undressing, climbed
onto some logs projecting out from
the bank, into deep water, and slip
ped from the far end of one of them,
pulling one companion with him. The
latter managed to get back on the
log, but the Mason boy failed to appear
after going beneath the surface. Leo
the older brother, who was out in the
field, responded to the cries of the
other boys on the bank of the slough
and made an unsuccessful effort tc
save his brother.
Several hours of dragging were nee
essary before the body was found. The
funeral was held at Montesano Tues.
day, where the Mason family formerly
lived.

WILL TRY TO DISPOSE
OF COUNTY HOSPITAL

If no protests are filed against the
sale of the county hospital-Grays
Harbor's white elephant-next Monday
before the county commissioners, the
building will be advertised and sold
as quickly as it can be legally done.
No protests are expected, as the tax
payers are entirely willing that the
incubus should be disposed of. Aber.
deem physicians are planning to sub
NIT a bid, and If successful, will con-
vert the useless and expensive struc-
ture into a modern hospital.

pany were awarded the contract. Other

Gylling.
Engineer Kelsey reported that the
bid submitted last week by the Inde-
pendent Sand and Gravel company, and
which had been laid over for a week,
was we'll within his estimate for the
improvement of Evans street, and
recommended that the contract be
awarded the bidder. The council or.
dered the awarding of the contract.
Protests were filed against the i'm
provement of the alley in Block g.,

BIG CROWDS AT
COUNTY FAIR
10000 People Were Present
at the Public Weddirs
Sunday Afternoon
MOVIES WILL SHOW FAIR
Fair Association Breaks With
American Trotting Associa-
tion--Now in Outlaw Class

Sunday marked the closing Of the
Grays Harbor County Fair at Elma,
which from every angle was the most
successful agricultural and mechanical
exhibit ever staged in the county. It
is estimated that 10000 people visit
ed the grounds during the five days
the fair was in progress. Sunday as
advertised, was the record day, when
no less than 10000 visitors passed
through the gates. There is no doubt
hat the fair this year has been finan-
cial success, although the managers
report will not be ready for the public
for several days.
The mystery surrounding the identi-
ty of the couple who were married
publicly on the fair grounds, was lift
ed at 2 o'clock Sunday afternoon,
when the contracting parties were
driven into the arena in the tour
ing car of Councilman John D. Walker
of Aberdeen, and Oscar Hermans, Sec
retary of the Aberdeen Moose lodge,
nd secretary of the local Scandinavian
club, and Miss Ellen Johnson, also of
Aberdeen, took their places before
Justice of the Peace Murphy of Monte
sano to be pronounced man and wife.
The bride and groom are numbered
among the most popular young folks in
them at their appearance before Judge
Murphy was of such a hearty nature
that it will linger long in the memo
ries of the happy couple.
Congressman Albert johnson gave
the bride away with few we'll chosen
remarks. Miss Nina Olson of Aber-
deem was bridesmaid, and j. H. Riggs
and w. H. Tucker were righthand men
to the groom. The groom made a
mistake, however, in kissing his wife
at the conclusion of the ceremony in
that he established a precedent of
which Congressman Johnson and Judge
Murphy took advantage of and dupli-
CatoO the performances.
Later in the day Mr.. and Mrs. Her
mans were guests of honor at a din
ner given by J. ]. Anderson, at the
Imperial hotel. In the evening they
left for the Sound and British Colum-
bia cities for a brief honeymoon.
Gifts valued at $725, including a
nice building lot in this city, were pre-
sented Mr.. and Mrs. Hermans imme-
diately following the ceremony.
The gifts range from small articles
of merchandise contributed by mer-
chants all over the county, to guam
titles of lumber and shingles-enough
for bungalow-from mill men on the
Harbor. No doubt the bride will find
it an interesting occasion when she at
tempts to store all her presents under
her own roof.
The most important result develop
ed from the fair, is the fact that the
Pathe Weekly News sent man here
from Seattle to photograph the i'm
portant events of the fair, including
the public wedding, and these will be
incorporated as an item in an early
release of national and international
events. In other words the Grays Har-
Dor County fair will be shown on thou
sands of screens in both this coun-
try and Europe.

bourne, democratic, Nov. Z.
Despite the efforts of the State
Democratic organization, the vote in
the county shows that democrats
generally participated in the Repu-
blican primaries. This is due large
ly to the fact that there were no fill
ings for county offices by democrats,
which left the voters of that party
open game for the army of aspirants
on the Republican ticket, so that the
blame, if blame there be is at least
divided between the parties. Some
democrats voted in the opposition
primaries as a protest against the
provision of the law which compels
separate ballots for local officials.
and with them this practice will not
cease until ballot is provided con-
tanning all candidates the same as
those at the general election.
The county contests resulted in the
nomination of Quinn for sheriff by a
plurality of 27O, over Searles, his only
competitor who was seriously in the
race. Orton won the nomination for
county treasurer over R. A. Wiley by
344 votes, after the most extensive and
expensive campaign of anyone on the
republican ballot. T. w. Bibb de-
feated N. d. McKillip for school sup
erintendent by 324 votes, while w. H.
Tucker trotted of with the nomination
for county attorney with the plurality
Of 682. Bibb and Tucker received the
highest votes in Aberdeen, the former
getting 1919 to $50 for McKillip, a
result that is being accounted for by
an alleged attempt of McKillip to be.

The injury was dressed by DR.. Hall,
