Dr par I meat—The People Hhaw
Tbrlr Appreciation.
About eight o'clock on Saturday morn
ing of last week, a firo broke out iu the
row of frame building* on the corner of
Firat and A streets. There was a high
wind at the time and fear was felt that
Mie flani(t could not be confined within
aov reasonable limit, but the firemeu
were promptly at hand anti worked with
vigor and judgment. It is aupp-osed that
the fire started in the store of Mrs. W.
11. Jeffers, but this is not definitely
known. When Die alarm was sounded
there was only the usual household pres
sure from the water-works and ar. ex
citable young man who was sent to the
central office to telephone to the power
house for more pressure, snapped the
bell cord and word had to be sect by a
messenger on horseback. He made good
time, however, and soon four streama of
water were playing on the flames. The
fire was stopped Indore reaching the
building occupied by Fisher A Mabry, in
fact the building occupied oy Mrs. May
waa not entirely destroyed and tho ad
juatment of insurance was made on the
basis of its not being a total loas. Much
admiration was expressed for the splen
did work done by the fire department,
and certainly the boys deserved the credit
they received.
The following are the losses and insur
ance: H. L. Walen, boots and shoes,
loss $1,2c0; insurance |500; Mrs. L. J.
May, merchandise, S6OJ; no insurance;
Fred Drury, jer.dry, $1,000; no insur
ance; llerke A Gammon, candies, $3-'H);
fully insured; Charles Harris, merchan
dise, $3,000; $1,500 Insurance; Mrs. W.
H. Jeffers, millinery, $1,400; SOSO insur
ance; MacCrimraon, Needham A Mas
ters,''building $1,000; insurance $000;
MacCrimmon, Needham A Biogswanger,
building, $1,800; insurance <900; K.
Strobacb, building, $800; insurance $450.
The insurance adjusters have been here
this week and the settlements made have
been generally satisfactory. While Mrs.
May did not loose much of her stock it
waa considerably damaged and the iosa
will be severely felt. Fred Drury, w hose
loss was about a t house ml dollars, had
recently moved here from Utah and had
opened up his goods in MacCrimmon A
Needham’s office.
So pleased were the citizens with the
work of the fire laddies that when Ham
Chappell circulated a petition for the de
pleted department fund $l5O was
cheerfully s.ihecribed, and Henry Ditter,
who was missed by Mr. Chappell, after
wtvils sent in his check for S2O to the de
partment. The subscribers were:

tion is to start east about the 25th of
February.
The election seems to hsve had a de
pressing effect on the hop market, for 20
cents is all that is now quoted fur choice
grades. Growers think that prices will
pick np as soon as politics subside, and
on this theory are holding.
The firemen will give another of tlieir

THE YAKHi DEMOCRACY.
Rfr«Mlcaai (■'•rri ikcUir-Trcach*

Unva Chargaa ara Hait.
Flection day In Yakima county passed
off quietly. A much lighter vote was
polled than was anticipated, and this waa
due somewhat to knowledge received
early in the day, by the democrats, that
the ticket was being vigorously knifed.
The traitors are well known, and acme of
them were in the confidence of the party*
managers and in position to effect the
most telling work. They will he remem
bered when another campaign rolls
around, and will not he given an oppor
tunity to get in their deadly thrusts.
When it rolled around to election day
the big four bad dwindled down to the
big three. The cry was to elect Ellis,
Simmons and Nevin, and to let the bal
ance of the ticket, with the exception of
Weed for the legislature, take care of
itself. The saloons and the tin-hoims
were worked for ail they were worth, and
all of the rounders had money to throw
at the birds. To Bay they were bought
for so much per head would be difficult
to prove, but Tux Herald has evidence
that would lead to this belief.
There is a charge still more grave that
ia openly spoken of on the streets, and
that is that ballots with the official stamp
on them were in the hands of party
workers outside of the polls. How
this come about? It is not lor Tub Her
ald to say at this writing, hut when the
votes are canvassed on Monday next in
the presence of Judge Graves and the
county commissioners it is only justice
that these reports should be investigated.
On Thanksgiving evening the Yakima
Dramatic Club, assisted by Mr. and Mrs.
E. B. Kelly, will present, under the aus
pices of North Yakima Ixxlge, No. 53, K.
of P., the New York comedy success, in
five acta, entitled “A Tramp's Daughter.”
This great play waa written by an Amer
ican author. Elliott Barnes, for the com
edian, John W. Burton, and was success
fully played by him in all the large cities
of the United States and Canada. It
abounds in thrilling scenes startling situ
ations, beautiful sentiment and side
splitting comedy. Mr. Kelly, under
whose direction the play will be given, is
a gentleman of wide experience in this
line of work, and ia spoken of by the
press in the highest of terms as an actor
and instructor. No one should miss the
performance, as it promises to be the
greatest success known in the amuse
ment annals of Yakima. The admission
will be 35, 50 sod 75 cents. Reserved
■eats may be secured at the usual place.
The wonders of the noil and climate of
Yakima county will apparently never
cease. The latest marvel is a box of
large and well-matured etrawberriea
which was presented to the editor of
Tub Herald by I). C. Stone, of the Yak
ima fruit and vegetable ranch. Tbe ber
ries are perfect in shape, of rich, luscious
color, and in every way the equal of thoee
picked in the early summer. What other
county in the northwest can show ripe
straw berries, grown in the open air, on
tbe 10th dsy of November.
It is impossible to learn the different
pluralities on the county ticket. The re
turns are all iu, but under seal, and the
official count cannot be made before
judge Graves comes down from Ellena
burgh. which will be early next week.
The entire republican county ticket la
elected, excepting Henry Creason for
county commissioner and Dr. W. O. Coe
for coroner.
The people’* party accomplished one
thing In the Male, if nothing more. They
defeated Henry J. Soivtly, who was the
champion of many of the measures advo
cated by them, and elected McGraw, who
baa no sympathy for them or their in
terests.
Agent Jay Lynch says he is ready to
step down snd out, as the office is of
more bother than it is worth. Other fed
eral office holders seem to maintain a
similar opinion with surprising unanim
nity.

37% Difference
The “Royal” the Strongest and
Purest Baking Powder.
Whether any other baking powder is equal to
“Royal,” let the official reports decide. When
the different powders were purchased on the open
market and examined by Prof. Chandler, of the
New-York Board of Health, the result showed that
Royal Baking Powder contained twenty-seven
per cent, greater strength than any other brand.
When compared in money value, this difference
would be as follows:
If one pound of Royal Baking Powder sells
for 50 cents,
One pound of no other powder is worth over
36 cents.
If another baking powder is forced upon you
by the grocer in place of the Royal, see that you
are charged the correspondingly lower price.
LITTLE LH IMWS OF HIS IIEITiTV.
Death el lease ward Brow n, Who
le MU to Be the Non of Ag
nes May Flemming.
Jesse Edward Brown, teacher of the In
dian school of this city, died on Sunday
afternoon of pneumonia. Little is known
of the deceased. He left no papers be
hind bearing on private affairs; in fact
it appears as though he had made it a
point to destroy anything and everything
regarding his identity. An effort was
made previous to his death to have him
speak of his relatives, but be would say
nothing, it is said that he was a eon of
Agnes May Flemming, the poetess, and
he showed considerable talent in that di
rection himself. A brother was at one
time superintendent of schools in Ohio,
and he lia» a sister who is the superior
ess of a convent, and an effort is being
made to get trace of and communicate
with the former.
Mr. Brown has been connected with
the Indian schools of Carlisle, Pa., Forest
Grove, Ogn., and other places. He was
a man of much education, and very stu
dious. His position at the head of the
Indian school will be difficult to fill. He
had a great amount of influence over the
children, who were greatly attached to
him, and well they might be, for while
be was a disciplinarian he was also in
dulgent and spent all of his salary, after
providing for his own necessary expenses,
on bis little charges. His age is unknown,
bat it was probably somewhere between
thirty-five and forty years. The funeral
was held from the Catholic church onTues
day morning.

The attraction at Mason'a opera house
next Wednesday night will I* “Forget
Me Not*” with Jeffreys Lewis as Stepha
nie de Mohrivnrt, a character made fam
ous by her. Jeffreys Lewis has always
been recognized as the one woman who
could play this part as it should be
played—a woman of the world; a woman
with a badly soiled name; a schemer who
would do anything for personal gain; a
woman who seeks to shine in society at
both the moral and financial expense of a
young and innocent girl. At times Miss
Lewis is a bewitching siren, and it can
readily be seen why the notorious Steph
anie has triumphed and lured rich men
to ruin; then she is again a perfect she
devil, ready to tear her traducera to
pieces, and later a pitable suppliant for
protection. At limes she glories in her
greatness and laughs scornfully at those
who oppose her. Those who have seen
her lately say that she is more brilliant
than ever—her eyes flash with the old
fire, and her lip# curl with the same hate
that used to make people wince, or amile
iu that fascinating way that has made
her scores upon scores of admires. A
woman who plays auch a role as Steph
anie in “Forget Me Not,” of course does
not receive any sympathy from any of
the playgoer*. But one cannot help ad
miring the admirable manner in which
Jeffreys Lewis plays it. for in that line
she i* without a superior. She baa an
excellent company to support her, and
take it altogether the performance on
Wednesday night will be a notable one.
