There was a lively feeling !n th« a!r al>out the city hall iaat night that carr:-d with St more thsn a strong sugectloa of the spirit «f T« and the old Seattle spirit rolled Into one. having as a ven? for In- cipient enthusiam the splendid opportu- nry for celebrating the nation's birthday snd reminding the rest of the world that sn appreciation of the day that is coming I* aiive tn the hearts of tbe people of Se- attle, and that an atonement for the un- intentional slights oi the past two years will be made in a glorious week of cele- bration that promises to eclipse any simi- lar ev»nt ever known In the North- west. Ij»sr n!ght the lubricant for the ma- chinery that will make the caglo scream was supplied In a big meeting of mem- bers of the general committee, at which time a temporary organisation was brought about and suggestions for the proper observance of the occasion were re- ceived, the original Idea that the celebra- tion shculd be one of several days pre- dominating over that In which it was believed that the efforts should be con- centrated upon a slngie day. While there were no pyrotechnic effects In »h> speech- es there was no lack of earnestness and the unanimity with which the proposi- tion to do something hi recognition of the Independence that America enj jys was re- ceived bodeß only good for the enterprise of the citizens who have taken the mat- ter up. Before i:JO o'clock there were fully 100 m> n pres-nt in the council chamber, ev- eryone with his contribution to the gen- eral scheme of the meeting. All of these Ideas were not ventilated in speeches, but 1< fore the meeting was called to ord. r the knots of members discussed probable feature* of the day, fusing their sugges- tions into the elements of a homogeneous opinion that the celebration must be a great one. President Rosenthal, of the Retail Clerks' Association, which organization ha* taken the Initiative step toward the celebration called the meeting to order and announced that the first thing on the pr »»rranime would bt the election of a temporary chairman and secretary. For these offices Mr. Rosenthal and Ira Con- ner were unanimously chosen The chair- man then explained what had been al- ready done toward the celebration, in the matter of sending out circulars and In- viting and organisations to send representatives who should be members of the general committee. Mr. Rosenthal said that he felt encouraged by the liberal showing of members, and predlct»d the success that the project de- serves. He then invited suggestions as to the organization of the meeting and a motion was made that the representa- tives pi« seat band In the lists of members apj >lnted to the meeting to the secretary.

Mr. Feurt said that he had remembrances of good old-time celebrations in the East- He had not seen any in the far West, and he ehouid like to He believes that business men will subscribe liberally.

If $-.??«*» or k> on is necessary, let the committee say *o, and it wiii be eas> to ge; it. He com- mended the mining, manufacturing' and 1 imoer exhibits as proposed. Mr. Brown thought that any objections to the celebration would be baaed on the failures of the past. Of these mistakes the committee* should take advantage. "Let us give the peojie what we promise; give t,.«aa thtir moneys worth.* said Mr. Brown. Mr. Rosenthal then gave some sugges- tions as to certain features of the cele- bration. including the idea of a fair, as outhntd, the industrial display, a rose carnival and other novelties. He advo- cated putting life into the work and pledged that he would raise S2.uuu of the »ei - asary money. He then appointed the following as membeis of the committee on permanent organization: Messrs. Gilson. Olson. Young. Chadwick and Burns. This com- mittee will meet tonight at Dr. Young a office.

April 13.-A colossal at- tempt at insurance swindling was un- earthed today when C. Lin wood Woods, of C. L. Woods & Co.. barkers, was ar- rested in his office in the Park building. The arrest was upon information furnish- ed by an agent of the Mutual Reserve Fund Life Association, charging Woods with procuring policies with intent to de- fraud. When Woods was confronted by the ar- resting officer, he fell In a dead faint. On recovery he made a written confession. In which he gives the details of his scheme. He says that with a former agent of the Reserve he fell into a conspiracy to de- fraud. His mode of procedure was to in- sert advertisements In the local papers for old men to act as collectors. He would ask the applicants for a bond, but kind- ly waived the bond if the applicant would sicn an application for Insurance on his life. This was generally secured. It Is not known as yet how the applicants passed the medical examination. In Woods' desk wpfe found sixty-five policies, aggregating I.**-°oo. Woods had poiicie* on the lives of his brother and sis- ter and his fiancee. The other policies wrt all for men over "«(> years of age. and Woods stood to realise a goodly sum In the near future. The many policies with Woods as bene- ficiary aroused suspicion and the arrest was made before any losses were paid. AT THE lIRO%r>\VAV CM B. White Heat* Curry?Rlda for MK'or- Preedon Kicht.
