Seattle Republican

Historical Society NORTWEST The SEATTLE VOL. I.X, NO. 49 SEATTLE, THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN "I want to say that in my opinion the next mayor of Seattle has not as yet been mentioned in that connection," said a well known business man one day this week. "I am not at liberty to use the man's name that has been under consideration by a number of prominent business men, and not only under consideration, but actually decided on, but when his name will have been given out for publication it will be a winner from the very start. The business men do not want a city such as has been operated by the Tom Humes forces and it does not want, what some people are pleased to term, a Sunday school town. There is a happy medium and I believe they will hit that medium at the propert time and all forces in the city will be perfectly satisfied with their selection for the mayoralty nomination. Common sense should be exercised in the selection of a mayor for Seattle and the extremes on neither side should be permitted to run the affairs. The vices of this or any other city can be properly restrained and why not select a man and a council that will do so and do so without prostituting the city and advertising it far and wide as a place where you can do any old kind of businesses that you want if you will only pay the price. "The Tacoma politicians, if I have been properly informed by one who ought to know, will between now and the time of holding the next state Republican convention endeavor to so line up the politicians, both in Pierce county and those counties that naturally favor her, as to throw the nomination for governor to King county with a view of injuring her chances for the United States senatorship before the next legislature," said a well known politician one day this week. If some one from King county is nominated for governor the cry will be started at once that King county wants to hog every office in the state. Such a cry, the Pie-maker has been creditably informed, was the cause of the politicians all over the state going against King county at the Spokane convention, at the Ellensburg convention, and at one of the Tacoma conventions, and it will do so again. As has been previously told in these columns, Dr. J. J. Smith, a hold over senator, is quietly a candidate for the governorship and he is favored very largely by the Tacoma politicians. Of course their motive for favoring him is a sinister and selfish one, but, if it wins, what care they. Dr. Smith therefore is going to be a formidable candidate for the Republican gubernatorial nomination. But King county has another my rayport or do yez want a funerale in this club.

NO. 49 POLITICAL POT=PIE If the patience of the public is not being taxed beyond human endurance when the Board of Public Works of this city threatens to close up Dr. De Soto's Wayside Hospital, which has been maintained from the very outset as an institution purely for sweet charity and at an enormous loss to its benefactor every month, and give the street over to the Pacific Coast company, a rich and heartless corporation, then this paper misses its guess. Dr. De Soto makes a proposition to erect an eighty thousand dollar hospital, equip it with forty thousand dollars worth of hospital paraphernalia and at the expiration of thirty-five years turn the whole over to the city without cost. This he does irrespective of the fact that not one in one hundred of his patients are ever able to pay one cent toward their maintenance while being treated, but "with the public be damned" the city authorities turn a deaf ear to the proposition and in one fell swoop give the site up to a poverty stricken corporation and for which not one cent's remuneration will ever be turned over to the city's exchequer. Our latter day civilization humanitarians and guardians of the public take some queer streaks in their administration of justice. The first man to ever cast a vote for John L. Wilson for United States senator, Hon. Frank G. Deckebach, who at the time was state senator from Chehalis county or the Gray's Harbor country, was in the city last Friday and Saturday attending the Northwest Whist tournament. When all of Mr. Wilson's friends had despaired and given up the ghost and declared him defeated, Frank Deckebach continued to shout in stentorian tones, "John L. Wilson." His persistency aided by the same kind of grit on the part of others soon rallied Mr. Wilson's seemingly shattered forces and they snatched victory from defeat. For, Mr. Deckebach's loyalty he was appointed register at the land office in Olympia. When his term of office had expired Senator Foster refused to endorse him for reappointment, hence he retired from public service. At the present time he is the editor of the Olympia Daily Recorder and is quite actively engaged in shaping the political destinies of the southwest combine for the next state convention as well as the next legislature, and may again be an important factor in the election of a United States senator.

Ellis Morrison, as has also been previously pointed out in these columns, and he will give the doctor a merry chase for his money. Mr. Morrison is going to be a candidate for the mayoralty nomination and it begins to look as if he will succeed, and, in case he does, it will take a mighty sagacious politician to prevent him from capturing the county a few months later for her gubernatorial endorsement. There are still other politicians in the county, who do not look well on this proposition, but prefer to see the gubernatorial nomination go to Eastern Washington, and they doubtless will do all they can to throw cold water on the King county nomination idea and they will not leave a stone unturned to do so. \* \* \* Speaking about the nomination of Dr. Smith for governor the Olympia Capital has the following to say: Some of our Republican exchanges are grooming Dr. J. J. Smith, president of the senate, as a candidate for governor. It will be remembered that he went fairly back on the Republican state platform and worked for the corporations and against the commission bill. With Dr. Smith for a candidate they will be safe in formulating the platform that will catch the most votes, knowing that their leader is thoroughly cognizant of the uses of Republican platforms and not old-fashioned enough to imagine that there is any thought of enacting its principles into law. * * * An exchange whose name we overlooked expresses volumes in the following excerpt: The Democratic press of the state of Washington is remarkably solicitous about the welfare of our Republican governor. They are right up in arms for fear the Republicans of the state may in some unforeseen manner administer a rebuke to the said governor. Never before has the Democratic press of Washington taken such remarkable interest in the welfare of a Republican executive. If this interest were sincere and deep-rooted, the situation might be different, but it lies only as deep as Democratic ambition to have a Democrat take his place. Democratic solicitation for Governor McBride is a piece of politics that won't go down Republican throats. * * * The office of The Seattle Republican is in the A. W.

The scheme of certain Afro-Americans to colonize the island of Hayti with American Negroes, conquer the natives and set up a new form of government, utopian in character, would sound well in fiction, but as such a thing is actually being planned, its very seriousness relieves it of all romance. William Pickens, the Negro who won the junior prize at Yale, has been asked to become the head of the new Afro-American republic. The oration upon which he won his laurals was one discussing Hayti's freedom. Mr. Pickens says that he has the matter under consideration, and will seek advice before enlisting his services in the movement. In discussing the plan he said: "Innovations and novelties in the methods of government are proposed after Hayti has been overcome. While the government would be republican in its present formation it would be administered as a gigantic corporation, of which all members of the society would be stockholders. All land titles and franchises are to be vested in the state. All dangerous and incorrigible criminals will be provisioned and set adrift on the sea to seek other shores. "Agriculture, manufacturing and all other profitable industries are to be encouraged. Public schools are to be established and liberty is to be widespread, but the rights of each individual are to be bounded by the equal rights of every other."

The grounds for so doing being that its day of usefulness is past, and that to retain it longer in school libraries only tends to excite bad feelings between the North and South. If the South, or the United States for that matter, once tolerated an institution which the reading of now makes ashamed, more is the pity, but that the state of affairs described in Uncle Tom's Cabin really existed. It is written in unerasable history and can never be set aside any more so than can the "Dred Scott Decision," the John Brown raid, and other single occurrences, which taken collectively caused our great civil war.

That was in the year 1895, and Mrs. Burt, whose husband was then in command of the garrison at Fort Missoula, Montana, the complement of which was a battalion of the 25th U. S.

If there is any one thing that Tom Page prides himself on as an attorney, it is has faculty of bulldozing and brow beating a witness on the stand so as to make him or her so contradict themselves as to destroy the weight of their testimony. Not long since while trying a case he soon discovered that in order to win it he must break down the evidence of a young lad who was a witness against his client. Realizing this, he went after his man from the very outset with hammer and tongs. After learning his name and residence his next question was: "What is your business?" "Have none," was the immediate reply. "Then you are a loafer." "Well, who do you live with?" "With my father, came a ready response. "And what does your father do?" "Not much of anything just now," answered the boy. By this time Page had warmed up to his subject to such an extent that he was on his feet and red in the face with intense interest. "Then, he, like you, is a street loafer and a bum, is he?" This was rather more than the boy had expected, and for a minute he sat dumbfounded, but finally gently replied, "Well, I do not know about that, but there he is over there in the jury box and you might ask him." Page instantly wilted, his voice sunk into his boots, and the flush on his face was changed to a deadly white. His cross-examination from then on was as mild and modulated as the spring moaning of a turtle dove, for after taking a hurried glance at the old man he saw blood in his eyes. It is useless to add that he lost his case. A Muddle Race Mixture. Last Saturday's divorce mills brought into court a muddled mixture of races. Charlie Wan, a pig-tailed Chinaman, prayed that the court release him from the bonds of matrimony which were then existing between himself and his Indian wife. A Chink and a Siwash hooked up together was certainly a sight for the gods. Wan was represented by A. R. Black, a well known Negro attorney of this city, while the Indian woman's side of the case was taken care of by John C. Murphy, a typical son of Erin. If only a Hebrew could have intervened for a Dutch landlord and a Dago appeared as a witness, including the judge, representatives of the world's family would have all been there. Crowded Court Calendar. Notwithstanding the fact that the last legislature allowed King county an additional judge and the legislature previous also allowed it an additional judge over its original three, thus giving her five superior court judges, who are in session six days in every week, yet the clerk's trial docket shows some 150 cases ready and waiting for trial. So overtaxed are the various judges that a special judge had to be appointed to try the Whittelsey shortage case, which, it is conservatively estimated will consume all of two months. Is it possible that all of the litigation of the state is to be found in King county? It might not be a bad idea to have some of the judges in other parts of the state, who are idle two-thirds of their time, to put in some of that idle time in Seattle and thereby help to relieve the situation. McClure Wants Work Among the many names drawn for the next month's jury list was that of Horace McClure, who J.C. Scene in "The Great Diamond Robbery," at The Seattle Theatre. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN ```markdown ``` is one of the jury commissioners and who is also a prominent attorney of the city. Business must be getting dull with McClure when he puts himself on the jury. Three dollars per day it must be admitted beats no dollars per day, and evidently McClure is taking time by the forelock to lay up for a rainy day. But the real idea to be brought out in this article is the absolute fairness of selecting juries in this county over the old way, when the serving on a jury was used to pay off political obligations. It is absolutely impossible to even surmise who will be the jurymen next month or any future month until the drawing has been made in open court by the county clerk, who at the time is blind folded. Your friend can not get you on the jury now. While it is not generally known it is nevertheless true that Judge John E. Humphries was the father of the bill giving this state such a perfect jury system. The Butcher Boy's Mistake. A rather laughable incident occurred in one of the resident districts of the city not long since. Near each other live an Italian and a Negro family. Italians by nature, it is well known, are very dark in complexion in comparison to other "white folk," but they bump in just the same. Now the Negro family in question is a mixture of African and Anglo-Saxon, leaving them of an olive complexion very similar in appearance to an Italian. The two families from the first didn't seem killed with friendship for each other, and this, by the way, is the case with all oppressed races, and the incident which is about to be related will not tend to increase their love for each other. A butcher boy thinking he would please the Italians on seeing a dark complected child playing with a lot of white children in the neighborhood, shouted in a voice, which could be easily heard by the Italian mother, who was standing on the front porch watching her darling: "Punch the coon! Duck the darkey! All coons look alike to me!" and then looked over at the Italian and smiled. The gibberish that that Dago woman let loose won't soon be forgotten by that butcher, and it will be a long time before he goes there for another meat order, but the fun of it is, now every time the Italian child looks toward the home of the colored children it is ordered into the house lest some one else mistake it for a "coon." True Case of Mistaken Identity. The above case of mistaken identity will doubtless make many of the men about town recall the joke on R. Satori, which has been told at his expense a great many times and cost him a good many rounds of drinks, and though old it might be repeated at this time with advantage. A man who had been doing some work for Satori called at his place of business for his pay. He saw a rather dark complected "white man" who looked good to him and so he made a bee line for him and told him his troubles. The man, however, was not Satori, but was J. Edward Hawkins, the well known Negro attorney. Hawkins is a man who never loses an opportunity to have some fun at the other fellow's expense, so he denied owing the bill and absolutely refused to pay it. This so incensed the teamster that he was wild with rage. Finally the loud talking attracted Satori and he wanted to know the cause. Hawkins then explained the Rev. E. M. Randall, Jr., has a host of friends in this city, who are delighted at his success at having been chosen as president of the Methodist University at Tacoma and he likewise has a host of members in the First Methodist Episcopal church of this city who will sorely regret that he is to give up the pastorate of the First church where it was hoped he would remain for years yet to come. Since he has had charge of the church he has had phenomenal success in conducting its affairs and had he not left its pastorate of his own accord it is highly possible that he would have remained in charge as long as he desired. Rev. Randall is an untiring worker and if a success can be made out of the school he will do it. Methodism in the Northwest boasts of few men that has accomplished more than he. situation to him and did so in the presence of a large number of guests of the house. It might have been funny to some people, but Satori did not see it that way. What, do you think I look like a damn nigger?" snarled the enraged Italian. "No, I think not," bumped in Hawkins, "he must have thought I looked like a damn dago." The gang roared and the drinks were on the house, but the next day Mr. Hawkins received a check from Mr. Satori and a note saying his services as his attorney were no longer desired.

A sleeping car porter employed on the Northern Pacific road will probably take his vacation earlier than usual this year, and all because he was substantially rewarded for his honesty by John W. Corson of Seattle last week. Mr. Corson and his wife were passengers on the North Coast limited that arrived in St. Paul from the west. Mr. Corson was enjoying a leisurely smoke at the West hotel Saturday evening, wholly unmindful of the fact that he had left his wallet, containing about $1,500 in currency and many valuable papers in the sleeper. The porter, whose name could not be ascertained, made the discovery, and he started out for and soon located Mr. Corson. The porter asked Mr. Corson: "Have you missed your pocketbook, sir?" Mr. Corson nervously felt of a vacancy in his inside pocket. He sank back in his chair quite faint. The honest porter produced the pocketbook, and before Mr. Corson could fully recover he was gone. Mr. Corson informed the hotel clerk that he would go to St. Paul and find that honest porter and make him a present of $200.—Spokane Spectator. Will He Change His Mind? It is very commendable on the part of Mr. Corson to desire to show some appreciativeness for so great a favor, but he will doubtless change his mind before he gets back to St. Paul, for $200 is a whole lot in the minds of some Anglo-Saxons for one Negro to have all at once. Just whether, after all, it is the proper thing to pay a man to be honest is quite an unsolved problem. In such positions men should be honest first, because it is a moral obligation that they owe both to God and their fellow men: secondly, because it is the best policy and means more in the end than the keeping of a dozen such pocketbooks. The person to whom all manner of man can point to as an unqualified honest and upright man is the person that has in his possession earth's greatest legacy. A Word on Self Restraint. President Hadley of Yale, in his address in the annual Dodge lecture course on "The Responsibilities of Citizenship," said: "Self-restraint enables the courts to say to the majority, 'thus far shalt thou go and no farther.' The constitution does not cause self-restraint to be practiced. Self-restraint causes the constitution to be obeyed." He further said that the nations who have not governed themselves with tradition and with reason have gradually been eliminated from the face of the earth. Those who have most cause to hold dear the 15th amendment of the U. S., yea! to whom it is as the very life's blood pulsating through their bodies, are able and willing to practice self-restraint and as they stand before the world today one of the most obscene among the observers, all they ask is to be governed "with reason," and in this case the word reason is synonymous with fairness and honesty.

Seattle should have one, too, on Saturday afternoon, the 23rd; not because Tacoma has, but because it is a good idea. It is announced that the Prince of Wales will head the commission in charge of England's exhibition to the St. Louis fair. The Prince himself will be the drawing card of the exhibit if he attends in person. Some idea of the magnitude of the business of manufacturing farm implements can be gathered from the fact that thirty-five hundred men are on a strike at the Deering harvesting works in Chicago. This is only one of many firms, manufacturing only one class of farm machinery. Portland has a ten-year-old horse thief, but he was allowed to go unpunished because he was so young. It is ten to one that if the parents, one or both, were made to "serve time," the truly guilty one would get his deserts. When children develop such propensities there is pretty apt to be something wrong either with the training or heredity. When perfumery is so dense that its odor can be detected by all within half a block of the beguiled maiden thus bedewed thoughts of a wicked waste of money and a vicious pollution of the pure air of heaven take possession of the unsophisticated, and causes him to wonder what there is about such person that needs neutralizing. The difference between monarchial and republican forms of government is evidenced by the fact that when a king or emperor goes on a visit it is to some other monarch; but when the president of a republic goes atturing it is the people he goes to see; as evidenced in this country now, as compared with the journeys of European crowned heads of late. A great many people in this country hope to see Sir Thomas Lipton lift the American cup this year, for two reasons; first, they admire a true sportsman and Sir Thomas has proven himself to be that; hence they would like to see him succeed; then, it would be pleasant to reverse things and go over to England and bring the old relic back, a year or two hence. The Elma Chronicle man, noting some of the unpleasant features of President Roosevelt's trip, has concluded he will not take a swing around the circle this year, as the signs do not seem to be right for great men to travel. Inasmuch as not only President Roosevelt, but King Edward, Kaiser William, President Loubet and various other dignitaries have been on the move of late, we are inclined to think that the Chronicle man has cast a wrong horoscope. --- If a man earning good wages or doing a fair business, is continually hard up, it is not fair to lay it to the trusts, the tariff, or any other foreign reason. It is wholly within himself. Either he belongs to too many lodges, spends too much for beer and tobacco, or he and his family are careless or extravagant in spending their money. A good deal of judgment and a little economy is necessary to be able to save up for the time when the strike or some other rainy day comes. Charlie Towne, erstwhile silver tongued orator for the forces of free silver, and running mate with one W. J. Bryan, on a presidential ticket a few years ago and who later struck oil in Texas seems to have gotten wised in some way. He now says they were mistaken in 1896, when they said everything would go to the dimnation bow-wows unless the 16 to 1 idea prevailed. Most of the people knew that long ago Even at the time he and W. J were saying it, the voters winked the other eye and voted for McKinley and prosperity. As the time draws near for the President's visit the briefness of the time he will spend in this city, available to the public, becomes clearly evident. When we read of the whole days spent in some Arizona towns, where there is but little for him to see and but few to see him, one can but wish he had ordered his itinerary a little different. If he had planned to spend all day Saturday, the 23rd inst., on the Sound and gone as far as Whatcom and Port Townsend, then given Seattle all, or even a half day Monday, how much more satisfactory it would have been; but! Ballard citizens are having some difficulty in securing the necessary funds for the purchase of a location for the Carnegie library building. Partly because of an unexpected indifference with regard to such an institution; but chiefly from opposition from labor unions. Organized labor, while disliking all capitalists from general principles, dislike Mr. Carnegie in particular; hence are showing their vindictiveness by opposition to his library building propositions. One would naturally think they would be glad to see him part with his money in a way that will do so much good; but we find it otherwise. Chicago printers, so it is said want the union label placed on United States money. Possibly that is one reason why there are so many strikes; the members don't want any money because it is not union made. Mayor Humes' veto of the iniquitous Yaw garbage franchise seems to meet the approval of all except the few individuals who expected to profit by it.

The anti-work epidemic seems to be spreading; the daily papers are full of new strikes and strike news. If these laundry strikes extend much further, the whole popula- tion will be known as the “great unwashed.” It is pretty certain now that Grover Cleveland is sparring for the position at the head of the Democrat procession in 1904. President Roosevelt has set the pace for the abolition of adver- tising matter in unseemly places Now let the contagion spread. “Hail to the Chief” is becom- ing as monotonous to President Roosevelt as “Marching Through Georgia” became to Gen. W. T. Sherman. The wisdom of injecting slang into the English language is now apparent. What would a base- ball write-up be worth if stated in plain, old-style words? Wonder what is the matter with Cuba? We don’t seem to be hearing much from her these days. Possibly she is busy tak- ing care of a big case of pros- perity. The sultan says he will not make war, that is no assurance that he will have his hands full all the same, some other people are not talking the way his Royal Sickness is. A Patterson, N. J., man has been discovered to have two hearts. Possibly nature, intended him for a Mormon; or even if he never marries, he still has two hearts that beat as one. President Roosevelt not only gives good advice to the school children who come out to greet him, but he gives them example as well as precept. He does not use tobacco in any form. We have heard of people who li-lac-surinda, and who lie like a thief, but a common lieutenant in Kaiser William’s army has been sentenced to eighteen months’ imprisonment for lying like a gentleman, The new state capital, when completed, if it ever is will be heated by hot air. While not so officially announced, yet we sup- pose it is the overflow from the late legislative gession, bottled and kept on storage, Hot stuff! An exchange says the biggest trust on earth has been found at last. It is the country newspaper trust. It trusts everybody, gets cussed for trusting, mistrusted for cussing, and if it busts for trusting, gets cussed for busting. Notwithstanding the fact that Russia has disclaimed any foul intent with regard to Manchuria. she seems to keep right on spar- ring for advantage, and the other fellows are not asleep. The dogs of war seem to be thirsting for the life blood of the hinds of peace, The Islanders of Samoa cele- brated their third “Fourth of July” on April 17, and are re- ported as being well pleased with the new order of things, since “Old Gloria” cast its protecting folds about them; for Uncle Sam's banner o'er them means peace and prosperity, Now that James Howard has been convicted for the third time of the murder of Governor Goe- bel of Kentucky, it would be an economic stroke to conclude he is guilty and avoid further court costs. While at Omaha, President Roosevelt was taught in reality what “a monkey and parrot” time amounts to,—White River Jour- nal, That was nothing to the Tacoma-Seattle time he will see when he strikes Puget Sound, judging from present indications. A Missouri editor in address- ing his Sunday school class utter- ed a truism when he said: “Fame has taken men from the forge the plow and the carpenter’s bench, but she was never known to reach over a picket fence and snatch a dude out of a hammock.” Cleveland and Bryan are like two bulldogs quarreling over a bone; each is saying to the other, “the presidential nomination is my meat.” The country looks on and remarks the foolishness of the squabble, as there is no meat on the old dry bone for either. The mayor of Omaha has paid a high compliment to the cause of moral and temperance reform by ordering all saloons closed during the labor strike in that city, THe evidently recognized and desired to throttle the hin- dering cause in affecting a settle- ment. A good way to cure the anti work or strike epidemic disease will be to help along the Grover Cleveland boom and make him president again, The records show that during his last admin- istration there were fewer strikes than during any like period since strikes became fashionable. The school directors of Berlin in this county, who profaned the corner stone of the nation, “the little red school house,” and al- lowed a prize fight to be pulled off therein, should be given a ereat big piece of discipline, even if law has to be manufactured to fit the case. Good nature, good cheer and good friendship, like choice flow- ers, must be cultivated, if we would have them flourish, All malice and selfishness, like weeds. must be rooted out, or they will choke out the desirable graces while debt, doubt and drink will not harm one if left alone, The one duty, above all others for the Democrat party to escape annihilation is to get rid of W. J. Bryan, He is at cross pur- poses with the party, in fact never did represent it, only when it went Populist, but he still has influence enough to prevent it becoming a very healthy oppo sition to Republicanism. The Asotin Sentinel is kicking because California land boomers have used a cut representing Asotin county fruit, to show the world what can be grown in that southern land of sunshine and big lies. But what is the use of kicking? They cannot steal from this state the ability to beat Cali- fornia in all but citrus fruits, The Kent Journal is respon- sible for the statement that an oyster contains 66,000,000 mi- crobes, This statement pre-sup- poses some one has counted them, for no editor would make a state- ment of such vital importance without knowing whereof he speaks, As it would take over two years, working ten hours a day, and counting 150 microbes a minute to accomplish 66,000,- 000, and the average oyster is apt toeget stale in less time than that, we prefer it should be the Journal man than ourself; be- sides, our aim is for larger game so when we eat oysters we will take them “mickrobes” and all without counting, Reduced Rates East yia the Northern Pacific.

There is a great demand for farm hands in Spekane, and in fact all kinds of labor. In the wheat region, farmers are offering thirty-five dollars a month and board for good help. And yet, there are thousands of young fellows who complain of lack of remunerative employment in overcrowded cities. It is queer that a man should prefer to work at from $1.50 to $2.00 in unsanitary factories, workshops or offices, where he will never amount to much, if anything, and where prospects of acquiring a competency are small, when he can get healthy employment, the nobility of which is as old as mankind, at good wages, and with promises of being his own master within a few years. There would, no doubt, be a god deal more of social contentment and progress, and less of crime, suicide and disorder, if our young men were, instead of hurrying to the nerve-racking and ambition-killing centers of population, "to take to the woods" and live as they live, amid normal, natural surroundings.—Saturday Spectator. The cannerymen in British Columbia are considering the project of canning sardines during that part of the year when salmon are not running. Mr. Dudley says that a sardine canery was established at Port Townsend two years ago, and that in 1901 the output was 60,000 cases. This year's pack will amount to 175,000 cases. It is claimed that these so-called sardines are superior to those of the Atlantic coast and are equal to the foreign product.

Excellent program each evening. A delightful time is promised all. The many friends of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Harvey will regret to lear nthat they lost their son last Sunday and he was buried Monday. He was a most promising youngster, which makes it all the harder for the parents to bear. The funeral services were held from the house Monday afternoon and were conducted by Rev. Freeman.

You are welcome. Special music for the occasion. On last Thursday evening a merry crowd of pleasure-seekers gathered at the palatial home of Mr. and Mrs. John H. Ritter, 216 Twenty-sixth avenue south and spent a most enjoyable time. Various games were indulged in, such as ping pong, checkers, and authors. Prof. F. D. Withers' String Orchestra enlivened the occasion with music and songs. After spending a most delightful time the charming hostess served light refreshments, and the guests each voted Mr. and Mrs. Ritter the palm as most charming entertainers. Among the many guests present the following were noted: Mr. Ruben Stafford, Mrs. Fanny Moore, Mr. and Mrs. F. D. Withers, Mrs. F. L. Wilson, Miss Mary Nevit, Mr. W. M. Cook, Mrs. W. Hammond, Mr. A.

AMUSEMENTS Magic and hypnotism are twin arts in the opinion of McEwan, the Scotch magician and hypnotist, who will fill a week's engage- ment a tthe Grand, opening next Monday. As a basis for either there must be considerable natural talent and adaptability. The rest is a matter of application; of hard and unremitting work extending over a period of years. McEwan has studied and mastered both these arts, and persons witnessing his work are puzzled to say in which of the two he excels. The combination is a most happy one, for McEwan holds his audiences spellbound and delighted throughout the evening. A notable feature of his work is its simplicity. He makes no high-flown motions or addresses to his audience, never poses, and does not strut about the stage, but performs his various feats quietly, unostentatiously and delightfully. \* \* \* The Walter Sanford Company of players will begin their engagement at the Third Avenue theatre next Sunday night by presenting Mr. Sanford's powerful drama of "The Power of Gold." This play is full of stirring incidents and dramatic climaxes, and is framed in a series of realistic stage settings. The principal scenes represent the Foundling Asylum in St. Hilda's Lane, a handsome apartment in Lady Brandon's mansion, the Houndsditch Mad House on the Sunken Marshes, the Deserted Toll House near Victoria Locks, and the garret of a London tenement house. All this scenery has been painted by Messrs. John & Louis Young, the leading scenic artists of New York City. "The Great Diamond Robbery" will be presented by the Baker Theater Company at the Seattle Theater for the coming week opening the new bill with the usual matinee Sunday. This is a stirring comedy-drama, the most elaborate scenic production the company has in its repertoire is the story it contains. Sherlock Holmes, the great detective of fiction, has a worthy rival in "The Great Diamond Robbery." The play is a rousing detective romance, with all the halo and mystery supposed to surround the police detectives. The plot of the play deals with the fight of a detective against a powerfully organized gang of diamond thieves. This gang, after causing a member to murder her husband for the purpose of securing his diamond collection, comes to America, from Europe, and is at once mixed up in other crimes. Dick Brummage, a detective, is assigned to the case and his adventures in running down the criminals and bringing them to justice would fill a book. During the progress of the drama the detective resorts to disguises on several occasions and so cleverly are these arranged that even the audience is deceivd by them George Allison, the leading man of the Baker Theater Company, has made an individual triumph in the role of the detective and his disguises are made with astonishing rapidity. Catherine Countiss will appear in a strongly emotional role, one of the kind to which she is so well adapted, and Mina Gleason will be cast as an illicit diamond dealer, a "fence." William Bernard will wear the manners of a Tammany politician and is to be responsible for a large share of the fun in the piece. The scenery is so elaborate for this play that it has received the attention of Frank King, the scenic artist, for the past several weeks. "The Great Diamond Robbery" promises to be a surprise in many ways. E. N. BROOKS & CO. Strictly High Grade Hats and Men's Furnishings at Prices to Please you .....
