HE SOLD HIS DAUGHTER Scenery of the Skull River— Father and Son Seeking Ol- •—fa vorce- an Ancient Fam- ily Relic. Otto Stein of Clc-Elum, Wuh., while cart lossljr liandling a pistol which he wu loading, eliot hi* wife in the leg, causing a very dangerous wound. In Seattle the other day Walter McPar- ian and George McParlan, father and son, applied for divorce from their re- spective wives. George F. Nlst, the 3 -year-old son o f J . M. Nist, Seattle, wat found dead Satur- day afternoon under a pile of lumber. 'I lie little fellow bad been playing around lb? lumber yard during the day. Daniel Huntington, one of the oldest settler* in the CowliU valley. Wash., Is dead. H i s b o d y w a s f o u n d o n the rail road track two miles and a half below Koiso. He was subject to epileptic fits, and was 65 year* old. The Washington Historical society ha* been organised uudor the presidency of Klwood E v a n s o f Tacoma. C . B . Baglry of Seattle is one of the curators. The society will meet on the first M o n d a y o f November, January, March, May, July and September, and as often at other times as the chairman may see fit to call a meeting. Charles H. Townsend, naturalist, at- tached to the Pacific coast division of the United State* flsh commission, who ha* just returned from Alaska, where be has been collecting specimens tor the Smith ranian Institution, was in South Bend a n d B a y Center, Wash., last week inves- tigating the feasibility of a scheme to cross the native oyster with the Cbesa make bay oysters, and thus improve the f inner. Ho is of the opinion that it can bo done. Says the W a l l a W a l l a Statesman: "One of the most valuable and handsome specimens of leaf or fern gold we ever had the pleasure of handling wo have just received from an old friend, with the rt quest that we place it in the world's fair exhibition with our own collection. This specimen is the largest known, and is valued at {300 for the gold in it alone, but to-day five time* that amount would not purchase it from us. The delicate tstocery of the fern is a* fresh, beautiful and crystaline in appearance as ever nature turned out of her laboratory, and is fully a foot tquare. The Antorian states that Job R o s s o f Astoria is the proud possessor of an an- cient family relic that he has been search- ing for for many years. He has lately received i t f r o m h i s n e p h e w , T h o m a s W . ltoss of Lafayette, 111. This ancient cu- rio is a powilerhorn of whalebone. It is a IK ut It inches in length and weighs about two pounds. Young Job R o s s i s now &) years old, and his father carried powder in this horn while he fought in tho battles of the revolutionary war. Job's grandfather brought the horn frcro Germany over 300 years ago, for the fam- ily that Job comes of were all long-lived. T h e o l d h o r n ha* an interesting history, could i t a l l be written, since the bone from which it is carved grew in the whale that lashed into foam the Arctic sea*. The horn is in a perfect state of preser- vation, and would make a formidable club, so heavy and strong I* it. Timothy Bailer of Sooth Bend, who was visiting near Mr. Roes' old home, was the bearer of tbi* much prised relic hither to It* present custodian, who will at bts death bequeath it to his son, and so it will go down to the generations yet to come. Perhaps the name of the last trustee may be Gabriel, who could take the bottom out of this old bora and sound a fearf ul blast. Prof. W . U . Ruffner of L xington. Vs., who is engaged at the present time in pre- paring a report on the mineral resource* of the country on the west side of the Cas- cade mountains, la stopping at the Rain- ier hotel in Seattle. To a reporter ef the Trltarapli be said: "The most stupend ous scenery I ever saw—ind I have trav- eled a great deal—is near the headwaters of the Cascade branch of tho Sksgit river, A most amssiug spectacle is there pre- sented on every band. Little has been •aid or written about this wonderful country. Few are aware of the fact that there i* a"real glacier there. It* appear- ance is sublime. My men estimated that it was three-quarters of a mile across, and from three to four miles long. It is at the bead of the Cascade branch, and the dis- charge from this glacier msjtes the creek which goes pitching, cascading down 4,- 000 feet. The altitude of the glacier is nearly 7,000 feet. Its estimated depth is 4 <J feet. This ice mountain is 75 miles trom Hamilton." The case of the queen against J . P , Hayden, alias Harrington, which opened in the police court this moruing, I remises to be tho most sensational cwr tried in this province, says a Victoria, B. C, special to the Seattle I'ost-lnUUigtncer. Hayden, who is a wsll-lo-do wholesale grocer in Fairbaven, was arrested here Thursday night charged with the abduc- tion and seduction, under promise of marriage, of Nellie Walsb, the 18 year-old daughter of Patrick Walsh, a contractor and builder, and a girl of uncommon beauty, education and rellnumunu Walsh formerly lived in Fairuaven and Miss Nellie was organist in the church of which Hayden was a prominent member. She also was a frequent visitor at the hospital, of which he was one of the di- rectors, and thus in rcrigious and chari- table works they were thrown much to- gether. She conceived a blind infatuation for him, although hs is old enougli to be her father and in per- sonal appearance i* far from an Apollo. This passion was re- ciprocated and Hayden forgot a loving, true wife, in pursuit of the young girl One day last week he telegraphed her to meet him i n P o r t Toa-nsend, and she wired back for bim to come to Victoria, He did sc, anil she left home and joined him quietly at a hotel, where tbey regis- ters? el as V. D. Harrington and wife. Her father's suspicions being aroused, he ob- tained police assistance, located Hayden and bad him arrested. Afterwards be broached a compromise, and Hayden said be would divorce his wife, marry the girl and pay the father f&OO for her. Her father asked $1,000, and putting bis prep- osition into a, business form, said he "You go to California and get a divorce from yntr wife, come back, nndtbea give me I1 .0C0 and you can have Nellie." This came to the ears of the police judge, and tbe chances are that the father will be In- dicted for compounding a felony and Hsyden will be sent up for abduction and seduction. Tbe girl on oath says though Hayden and »ha shared a r o o m , tbey never overstepped tbe bour.ds of friend- ship. She manifest* a strong determina- tion to stand by Hayden. and white abe may be charged with peij-iry publte sym- pathy is with bcr. She aiimits that Ray- den promised to marry her as soon as be could get rid of bis wife. QUAINT AND CURIOUS. Persia's ruler has a salary of f 50,000,- 000 per year. New York girls chew tC .000,030 w o r t h e f gum each year. A petrified elephant has been un- earthed near Jasper, Florida. Klictricity is now usod in heating flat- iron* used in tailor shops.
