8 OLD BATES REVIVED. Railroads Will End Cheap Trav- eling Next Week. AS THEY WERE BEFORE THE FAIR OM Trip Battered -Train ItrTlm to Be far tbe Oregon The transcontinental railroads bars agreed on a restoration of regular passenger rates on November very dsy after tbe close of tbe World's fsir. Tbe round trip rates were received at tbe North era and Northern Pacific yesterday and are. with a nine months' limit: To fct.

Paw, to Chicago, to fit. fdZ. These rates allow of the eastward trip being made over one of the Northern lines and the return trip over another. The rate to go or return by nay of Han Francisco is tits to Chicago. to CM.

Paul and slOl to Be These rates cancel ail World's fair excursion rates, aad sre the same as ruled previous to May when the round trip rates were raised to ISO to Ht. Paul, sllO to Chicago and 102 to St. These were the tariff rstes until May 1. Vm, when the rate with nine months limit to Chicago was reduced to and those to St. Paul and Ft.

Louie were reduced to the figures prevailing before May, Wl Then on Jane 3D came a reduced roond trip rate for continuous passage of to St. Paul and to Chicago, and on October the excursion rate lor the remaining period of the fair, good for return up to November US, was made While tbs excursion rates were well observed, tbe tsnff rates ruling before the fair opened were more honored in the breach than observance. The for will be published in a few days, and will bs about the same before tbe fair. They have been more besviiy reduced than round trip rates, for trip tickets less scope to tbe scalpers than the rouad trip and, in case of an agreement among the competing roads to restore rates, the restoration could be made more readily when there were no cheap retrtrn halves of tickets in the hands of ths public. The roads are taking steps to get some mor.ey-making business and swell their depicted earnings while reducing their operating by taking off double train service or second sections of trains.

The Northern Pacific will, no doubt, soon ofT iU second train and retain only the regul.irfwinter service until next spring. While there will be no more cheap eastbound ttfvel for some time, if ths roads able to maintain tbe advanced rates announced, the fto round trip rate from Missouri river points, gooi for return up io April 15, will bring many immigrants from the East to find new homes 'or their families, with a view to a permanent removal later, and many investors may bs expected to the opportunity of find- ing a place to put their money to advantage. rCBCBAII or THC ST. rAt L. Am Opposition Moat Bought by the Faelite Coast Steamship Company.

The steamer St. Paul, which last year ran with the Haytien Republic in opposition ta Coast Steamship Company betweea Baa Francisco and Seattle, has now hem purchased by the latter company. Tha story of her purchase is an intereaUflg one and is told by the Cummsrcmi Acm, of Ban Francisco, as follows: "About its months ago the Alaska Commercial Company, finding that it had no nee for the ateamer St. Paul, offered to sell her to the Pacific Coast Steamship Company for The otter was refused. The Alaska Commercial Company did not waut the steamer to lie idle, and, after looking over the field, came to the conclusion that she be profitably employed in tbe trade between here and Mexican ports, a trade which had heretofore been almost exclusively controlled bv the Pacific Coast Steamship Company's steamer New hern.

The Johnson-Licke Mercantile Company was to be agent of the opposition line, and that company sent an atcen; down to the different Mexican ports that the Newbern called ai to get promises of patronage from and shippers. The agent met with success beyond bis anticipations ana returned to ran Francisco a tew days ago to report, and found that the New hern had lost near lledondo on 14 during a heavy fog. The I'actfio Coast Steamship Company was then anxious to purchase the St. Taut to take the place of the Newbern at the price she wns previous.y offered at However, it was iouud that the price had been advanced, and. although that company hnaliy got the steamer, it had to pay MJA casti down for her.

She will leave here on the '2sth Inst, taking the place of tha New hern. It is generally understood that Capt. Anderson, who hits been in her for a numhei at years. will resign and possibly apt. Van Helms will go in commaud." KET LIKE TO IIOMM i.f.

THAT BOY PREACHER. He Got His Board and Bought Real Estate With Wind. A MYTHICAL WEALTHY MOTHER. He VM People hjr His Serasena. bat Always Palled to Cleae Bis Baal Estate Deals.

The pretended boy preacher of surpassing eloquence, who under tbe name.of either George T. Pritchard or Twttchell won tbe confidence of manv of the people of Dee Moines and then left the town in another man's bnggy, which be left with the horse at a livery stable, has quite an interesting record in tbe neighborhood of Port Townsend; in fact, his adventures about Des Moines make mild reading compared with thoee around the port of entry. Pritchard, as he called himself there, made bis first appearance in that locality last June, when he introduced himself to Daniel Andrews, a rancher in the Leiand valley, at the head of Discovery bay, and said he wanted to buy a tract of land. This induced Mr. Andrews to take him in and entertain him.

as he had some land to soil. Pritchard struck a bargain with Mr. Andrews aad agreed to go with him to Port Townsend on a certain day, get the papers drawn up and pay the purchase money. Mr. Andrews got on the train, thinkinx the preacher was there also, but on reaching Port Townsend found he bad been given the slip.

Pritchard had gone to Sequim bay, and no sooner reached there than he went to the house of John Brown and introduced himself as tbe worid-renowned boy preacher from New York city. Rev. Mr. Pritchard. He got Mr.

Brown to gather sn audience at ttie hall (or him that evening and delivered a tine sermon which delighted his hearers. But the demon of detraction was aiready abroad. A resident of warned a friend at Sequim to beware of Pritchard, as he might not be what be represented himself to be. On bearing of this report, the preacher went to a meeting of tbe literary society in halt, and, obtaining leave to make a few remarks in reply to it, made such an eloquent and convincing defense as to tborougnly win over his hearers. He gave references to a number of leading people in New York city and threatened seek redress in the courts from any person who dared to breathe a word against him.

This lulled suspicion and he continued to board with Mr. Brown, who, tike Mr. Andrews, bad land to sell. He said his mother was a wealthy widow in New York and bad instructed him to prepare a borne for her on this Coast. He bought eighty acres from Mr.

Brown, on rhich he said he proposed to put a $4,003 house. He actually hired a man to clear a site and dig foundations and a well, and put him to work with one or two men to help. HCMISO engaged a local architect and builder to draw plana and prepare for building and went to tbe sawmill to order lumber. but Mr. Brown was anxious to close the of the land and get the money for it.

lis pressed for a settlement and Pritchard said he had written to his agents in Victoria to draw the papers in complete British iron clad style. This satisfied Mr. Brown for a time, but at last, tired of waiting. he proposed that on a certain day they shoald drive to Port Angeles and get the papers drawn and that then Pritchard should pay over the money, which, he said, was in the hank there. They went to Port Angeies and arrived at the bank before it was open in the morning.

Pritchard said he would like to goon the and bringdown a clerical brother to witness his signature and Mr. Brown agreed to await his return. He went and Mr, Brown has not seen him since. Hts board bill has not yet been paid. BEAT IX BV A BROTHER SPORT.

Shorty Misw Finds Partnership With Matt Riea Very Cnatly. The sporting men in the southern part of the city are discussing freely "Shorty" Shaw's story of how he was bunkoed out of by his partner in a gambling house which had a Very brief evistence. Recently shaw sold out his interest in the billiard hall in the Clancy block, receiving from his partner, Bunker, about Matt Ries then appeared on the scene and according to general report proposed to Shaw that they open a gambling house with laro and crap games for the features. Shaw was to furnish the reputation and be the drawing card and put up $625 against a similar amount from Ries. Shaw had known Matt Ries when be was an ordinary gambler; in fact, they have been friendly for years, and this led Shaw to think his proposed partner would be square with him.

He talked with several friends, one or two of whom warned him that Ries was "a sly guy" and needed watching. The game was started last Monday night in the oid rooms over the M. N. saloon, on Washington street. Each man having put up his money, the $1,250 was divided into two piles, one on the laro, the other on the crap table.

Shaw stood behind the latter board, and after a varying plav found himself losing steadily to two men, the one a tail, Mack-whisfcered man, the other a sin all, squint-eyod individual. The coin went like water until the 1625 looked as if a Kansas cyclone had struck it. This made Shaw weary of nil bargain and the idea of a "brace fame" occurred to hitn. With this thought in mind, he dec.ared that they could not him stand the lash anv- more," and refused to deal. In the one, said to be Jack Thompson, went out after Ries and brought him in.

As Shaw got out from behind the table, Ries stepped in to deal himself, or least he was to give them a came. Shaw waiked over to the faro table io get the pat there as a stake, but failed to tind it. He then returned to where Ries was standing at the crap table and told him tnat be could give the strangers all the game he wanted to. but not on hts (Shaw's) money. Then Ries asked Shaw is he wanted to draw out.

Shaw re- '-ed that he did.

The sanouncenient in yesterday morning that a weather service had been ordered Seatt.e was welcome news to those who Highest of all in Leavening U. Gov't Report ABSOLUTELY PURE and improvement of a station in the city. George H. Willson. United States weather observer in Seattle, was asked yesterday to explain just what a first-cisss weather service meant.

He said ne had received no word from Washington City any changes In the equipment of the office, but he supposed that, according to the Washington City telesrram in the Porr- IxTKLLlosxcta, some such move was contemplated. He said that if the Seattle cfffice were to be placed on a level with tbe best offices in tbe country it would mean that new instruments would be supplied, by which a continuous record would be automatically kept of the barometer, temperature, rainfall, sunshine, wind velocity and wind direction. Only one of these, wind velocity, is now kept continuously, in addition to the new instruments large printed maps would be furnished and reports received from a larger number of stations. These mape would be issued daily and contain not only a synopsis of the weater for the previous twenty-four hours, but also the probabilities for the next twenty-four hoars. Regular forecasts of the weather fer state and section would be made.

WHAT IS HOME WITHOUT IT? TOLL ROAD SO MOBE. Snoqnalmie Pass to Be Kept Free to Travelers.

KING AND KITTITAS AGREE. They I'D to Stop Toll Collecting, AND CU SOW Make Road tifttl Mountain Drift. Toll collecting on the Snoqualmie toll road, either on the King county or the Kittitas county end, is a thing of the past. County Commissioner Wooding has received a communication from the hoard of county commissioners of Kittitss county heartily acceding to the proposal sent them by the King county board about three weeks ago that the two counties unite in keeping the road open and free to all. This pats aa end to the game of th se who have heretofore levied tribute upon emigrants passing over the road.

It was through the influence of the Kittitas county that the men who were arrested for forcing their way throngh the pass in spite of Toll Collector Beard and his shotgun were acquitted in K.iensburg a few days ago and allowed to rejoin their fami.ies in North Bend. The commissioners of the two counties will now be urged to put the road in good condition for travel. Persons who hare traveled over it from Snoqualmie to Eilensburgh say that the paas which it follows is natural gateway through the mountains and that the road could be made passable at comparatively slight expense. It needs the clearing away ot windfalls, the filling up of a few mud-holes and swampy places with rock or corduroy and the building of rough rustic bridges across the rivers to make it possible for travelers to use it regularly. Some still further expenditure would make it possible for a carriage to be driven with ease over the paas, so that visitors could, without enduring any of the hardships of mountaineering, enjoy the beauties of the scenery in such a leisurely way as is not practicable on a rapid railway journey.

Stevens County and Prod nets. KETTLE FALLS. Oct farmers are bringing in quantities of wheat. The rain did no injury to crops in this county, although much delay was experienced both in cutting and threshing, which latter is not yet completed. Fine apples and grapes are coming in from a few miles down the river.

Several ranchers are turning their attention to raising more poultry. We have imported eggs and chickens from lowa and Minnesota. but now, with wheat at 50 cents or less, farmers find poultry will pay. Arrangements are being made to start a creamery here next spring. It all depends upon the farmers, as the necessary capital is ready so soon as the requisite number of cows are promised.

The work on the state wagon road across the river west of here, on the reservation, is progressing. Men have gone from this place to work on it so long as the weather will permit.
