In a column article* written upon the
subject of the Pacific Sheet Metal
Works, now nearly completed at Fair
haven, the World-Herald of that place
says: "This company already has or
ders to manufacture the tin cans for all
the salmon canneries on Puget Sound,
enough work to keep the factory run
ning all summer, and when this is fin
ished, there will be abundance of work
in the way of making tin buckets, cans
and other utensils of various kinds and
materials; in short, the factory will
turn out everything and any thing that
is made of sheet metal." It is un
doubtedly true that this company has
contracts for making the cans for most
of the canneries on Puget Sound, but
when they state that they have con
tracts from all of them they are mis
taken. The Island Packing Company's
plant, located at this place and one of
the largest in the state, has its own tin
shop and a most complete plant for
making their own cans, which they in
tend to do this year as well as iv future
years The tin plate for this purpose
has already arrived aud the Chinamen
are expected tomorrow to begin work
ou them.

Extracts from Game Law.
In view of the fact that several com*
plaints have been brought in of late,
regarding the slaughter of deer in this
county, we deem it advisable to quote
Section 2, page 82, and Section 18, page
86, of the 1897 Session Laws of the State
of Washington. Any person or per
sons knowing of any violations to these
sections should report the same to the
proper authorities and have the guilty
parties punished:
Every person who shall, within the State of
Washington, at any time between the first day
of December of any year and the first day of
September »f the following year, hunt, pursue,
take, kill, injure or destroy any deer, shall be
guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon conviction
thereof shall be punished as hereinafter pro
vided. Every person who shall hunt, pursue,
take, kill, injure or destroy any deer between
one hour after sunset and one-half hour before
sunrise of any day of the year, shall be guilty of
a misdemeanor, and upon conviction thereof
shall be punished as hereinafter provided.
Every person convicted of any of the misde
meanors defined in the foregoing section of this
act, shall be punished by a fine of net less than
|io nor more than $100, together with the costs
of prosecution in such action, and in default of
the payment of said fine, shall be imprisoned in
the county jail one day for each $2 of such fine;
and upon the trial of any person, agent or em
ploye of a company or corporation, proof of the
possession of the wild animals, when it is un
lawful to take, kill or have same, shall be prima
fade evidence that the said wild game animal
was unlawfully taken or killed by the person
having possession of the same.
FINE MILLINERY.
We wish to announce to the La
dies of Friday Harbor and vicinity
that Mrs. J. J. Grossman, of
The Wonder Millinery House,
of Seattle, will be in their city, Mon
day, April 11, with a full line of
fine millinery. It is unnecessary
to say anything about the styles
and quality of our goods, as every
one Knows that nothing but the
very best comes from the
"WONDER"
and we wish all the Ladies to call
and inspect our stock and leave us
your orders. You will be looked
after in the best possible manner
and will be given the lowest prices.
THE WNNDER, OF SEATTLE.
A Brutish Father's Crime.
Edwin Barnes, of Orcas island, 69
years of age, has been held for trial In
the superior court charged with the
abominable crime of incest, his Victim
being his eldest daughter, about 16
years of age. From her own testi
mony, plainly and simply given, and
that of the younger children, there can
be no doubt of the unnatural father*
guilt. The extreme penalty for this
crime provided by the law of this state
is much too mild for the punishment
of such a brute. The motherless young
girl so cruelly wronged, and for whose
condition a debased father is responsi
ble, is being cared for at the home of
of kind friends and neighbors. Barnes,
who feigned insanity and refused to eat
for several days, will probably be taken
to Whatcom and confined m the county
jail there until he can be arraigned for
trial In the superior court here.

ALIVE, BUT NO STOMACH.
A Wonderful Operation Which Start
led the Medical World.
HOPE FOR THE AFFLICTED.
How They Hay Hare the Services of
the Most Eminent Specialists
and be Restored to Per*
: feet Health.
The year just passed has been remark
able for the great advancement made in
m epical science and the introduction of
new and successful methods of treating
what has heretofore been considered as
incurable diseases. The daring and
brilliant operation performed by Dr.
Carl Schlatter, of Zurich,. Switzerland,
by which the entire stomach of a patient
was successfully removed, has astounded
the medical profession. Heretofore the
stomach has always been considered a
vital organ, but the Zurich patient, alive
and well, refutes this shop-worn theory.
The case of this woman without a stom
ach, demonstrates that the gastric func
tions can be performed by other organs
of the body.
The history of this case is of absorbing
interest. From childhood tie patient
had suffered from frequent attacks of
severe pain in i the stomach. The local
doctors could afford her no relief. She
finally came under the treatment of Dr.
Schlatter. He diagnosed her case and
found the seat of trouble to be a tumor.
This he removed with the entire stomach,
and the patient, though old and feeble,
has fully recovered her health.
The remarkable results obtained in
this case prove the superiority of the
specialist over the general practitioner in
the treatment of chronic diseases. His
study, investigation and practise are con
fined to one particular organ of the body
and its diseases. His constant work
makes him master, and success attends
his efforts. vv-'~jr-
There has recently been formed in New
York City the Warner Nazaro Medicine
Company, which has a department for
the special treatment of chronic diseases
of all classes. Its Board of Physicians is
composedof themost successful specialists
in Greater New York. The object of the
company is to give advice and treatment
to people who could not otherwise obtain
the services of such eminent specialists.
Many diseases which hare baffled the
•kill of the general practitioner can thus
be successfully treated and suffering
humanity benefited. :* "_ -' :" ' ■ ". -2
Among the diseases for which special
treatment can be had are>crofula and all
blood and akin diseases: nervous prostra
tion, insomnia, chronic headaches, and all
nervous disorders; rheumatism and gout:
acute and chronic catarrh; diseases and
weaknesses of women; special diseases of
men; indigestion and stomach troubles.
This plan of special treatment baa been
devised and perfected by Mr. H. H. War
ner, former proprietor and originator of
Warner's Safe Cure. Mr. Warner i re
tired from the Safe Cure business some
five years ago, and since that time he has
gievn bis attention to | formulating; and
perfecting the present undertaking. His
years of experience in the special treat
ment of kidney diseases led him to be
lieve that equally good results could be
obtained by offering the public, at a rea
sonable rate, special treatment under the
direction iof eminent specialists for J the
several classes of diseases to which man
kind is liable. 1 This > plan places within
the reach of all. at minimum prices, the
experiences lof men who j have devoted
years of study to their respective special
ties
: The method of obtaining relief from all
chronic troubles is as simple as it i» in
expensive. All that iis ; necessary is to
write a history of your case, making the
statement as complete as possible, and
giving ? symptons - in t detail. % Send this,
with five dollars, to the : Warner Nazaro
Medicine Company, St.« Paul t Building,
820 Broadway' New York City, when a

cure, will be sent you and delivered free
without m further » expense. The well
known business ability of Mr. Warner,
and the fact that he has done so much tor
suffering humanity in the past, are ample
assurances of the genuineness of this, his
latest and greatest work. Write today, fe
