A visitor in Seattle, wishing to call at a certain widely- | own business house, asked a policeman what car he oath take. The policeman hesitated and stammered | out a guess. A newsboy, standing near, gave the infor- mation promptly and definitely. | The same visitor, wishing to call on some friends in the Eastlake district that night, asked the conductor on a Cowen park car which way he should go after leaving the car to find the address he sought. The conductor told him to turn to the left. The visitor would have walked into Lake Union had he followed instructions. But the conductor decided, as his passenger left the x ear, that he was guessing in a bad direction, so he told a the visitor to turn to the right. That was safer, anyway Then came reassuring words as the stranger stepped ut into the black night: “Just go on up the hill and look around, partner; you'll find it somewhere,” Where is that person who inaugurated the “Know Your City” campaign? and depress Governor Hart wants nowspapers to climinate the murder: Au Ang and serrow breeding items, acts and pictures during Smile week.
