lay between Judge Brinker and Hon.
Sam Yinson ; but these redoubtable nim
rods conceded that thespitedil little crea

fore ample, and their attitude toward it
for a brief spell was lets picturesque than

sure.

given by a party here to the signatory of
the order. The raavor rants the note as
security for $11.50 which he generously
gave to Jaquerson and wife who stranded
in The Dalles on their way to Pendleton.
They had no money and could get no
work. But it transpires that no such
note was ever given by the person in
ques.ion, and the kind-hearted official of
The Dulles is probably out $11.50 given to
Jaquerson on a false claim. It may
transpire that Frenchy will learn that the
business of obtaining money by false pre
tense is not always attended with pleas
ing results.
Speaking of the matter of baling hops,
recently, E. M. Collins, the well-known
hop expert, said to a Press-Times reporter:
"The quality of the Puget Sound bop out
put this year is very fine, but many of the
growers are spoiliug the sale of their hops
by poor baring. During the past week I
have visited White river, Klkton and
numerous sections and found some grow
ers ruining the sale of their tine hops by
breaking them all up in the old-fashioned
process of bailing. They have old-fash
ioned hand presses and shovel the bops
into the press, where two men are busy
tramping them down with their feet.
This tramping process pulverizes the
large hops and spoils the sale of the Imps.
1 have some samples here of the nicest
hops ever grown in this country, but they
are pulverized to powder by this tramp
ing process in baling "
N. H. Lillie, of Toppenish, returned on
Tuesday from his second visit to the east
this year. The greater part of his last
visit was devoted to St. Louis where he
attended the great races with a good
stable of "goers." "Bangum. the little
horse that was raised by John 8. Splawn
in this county, has proved a world
beater," said Mr. Lillie. "He has won
forty races so far, more races than were
ever won by any other horse in the
United States. His race was a half-mile
or five-eighths, in which contest he never
had a permanent equal. But he has
passed his palmiest days of victory. He
is now nearly ten years old and will not
again add a laurel to his past achieve
ments. I have sold him. He has made
his last record. But Bangum was a horse
of which Yakima county may justly be
proud."
Judge Wm. H. Brinker, United State*
prosecuting attorney, resident at Seattle,
was in the city thin week in the caee of
John Drown, alias Charley Rose, arrested
by Deputy U. 8. Marshal Wills for sell
ing liquor to the Indians. The bootlegger
was discharged on examination in lirst
case, but was immediately arrested on a
second charge. A subsequent examina
tion resulted in his being bound over.
This make.-; the forty-third prisoner being
held for trial for illicit whiskey irnllic
with the Indians. And yet Marshal
Maguire and his deputies are bu«y on a
score or more of cases equally offensive.
Funeral services over the remains of
Mart L. Edner were held in Lombard A
Hnrstey's undertaking parlors on Satur
day afternoon la*t at 4 o'clock, Rer. Ueo.
Armor Fair officiating. The reference in
the last issue to the fact tbat Eduer was
at one time a member of the K. of P.
lodge at Tacoma was susceptible of an
erroneous construction. It is true that
he did at one time hold membership
therein, but more than two years ago he
was compelled to sever his connection
with the organiiation for reasons un
known to us.
The board of directors met on Saturday
evening last to consider means uf imme
diate relief from the crowded condition of
the public schools of this city. 11 was
evident, primarily, that additional room
would have to be engaged. The Howlett
building, on the corner of Second and
Chestnut streets, was therefore rented and
the work of preparing it for pupils will be
begun at once. The fgurtb, fifth and
sixth grades of the schools are much over
crowded and many pupils were turned
away this week.

At the session of the city council on
Monday night, at which Mayor Prosper
presided, all members of the council
were present except Kedmon.who is east.
After the minutes were read, Mayor
Prosier directed the attention of the <x>un
cil to the fart that diphtheria or some
equally fatal scourge was reported to be
prevalent in the Cowyrhee and Natcheez
valleys ami that the |«ople of this city
were alarmed sufficiently to justify special
action of the council in the matter of
thoroughly investigating the character of
the epidemic and of quarantining the
town, if found necessary, against expos
tire to the diaease. The health officer
had already gone to the infected com
munity, but would not be »ble to return
to the city before the following day.
At the request o( the council Prs.
Hill, Morrison ami Iliv. who were pres
ent, were invited to offer their opinion, io
far as they could give it without personal
investigation, of the character of the
scourge and the bent means of guarding
against the spread of the contagion with
out unnecessary emharasmnent to the
community in a business and social way.
l>r. Hill stated that, from reports con
cerning the effect and fatality of the ilia
ease, he was forced to believe it was
diphtheria; that there was a death or so
every day; that diphtheria was more ma
lignant and fatal than any other conta
gion with which we had to contend in
this climate; that Dr. Smith, of Tacoma,
now in the city, had said that diphtheria
prevailed on the Sound, and that there
was a well-defined suspicion that it had
been communicated to the people of the
unfortunate communities on this side of
the range by hop-pickers from the west
side; that probably the best means of
protecting this community was to estab
lish a patrol on the highways between
this city and the valleys named with a
view to meeting people of the affected
district who may desire to reach town
and in that way cut olf as much direct
communication between the city ami
the seat of the scourge as possible.
Dr. Morrison was not so confident thut
that the epidemic was diphtheria, but be
lieved, as did Dr. Hill, that a thorough
investigation by good authority should be
made at once. If he found it to bo a con
tagion of any malignant typ", then quar
antine the town as nearly as possible,
Hose the schools and churches and keep
children off of the streets. Our alleys are
in bad condition, said the doctor; germs
of infection are hidden in thp fifth
allowed to rot there. Should an epidemic
get at a start here it would not be easy to
control it.
After a thorough discussion of the mat
ter the couucil obtained a promise from
Dra. Morrison and lie;.' and a conditional
one from Dr. Hill to ro up the Cowychee
on Tuesday, carefully investigate the
character of the epidemic and report the
result to an adjourned meeting of the
council on Tuesday evening.
In this connection it will be well to in
clude a report of the action of the ad
journed meeting ou Tuesday evening.
The committee of doctors reported the
disease a malignant type of diphtheria
and advised the application of precau
tiooary measures immediately. Dr. Heg
stated that they had made a thorough in
vestigation and that he and Dr. Gunn
had found seventeen cases of diphtheria.
I)rs. Rosser, Morrison, Hill, Heg and
Citinn addressed the council ou the sub
ject of quarantine necessity. They all
agreed that there were no cases of the
disease in the city. Dr. .Rosser was
directed to notify the people of the in
fected district that quarantine measures
had been applied and they must not come
into the city during the period indicated
only on permit from the board >[ health.
The council, therefore, while not estab
lishing an absolute quarantine, requested
that the school board close the schools
until the :; lli inst., one week from next
Monday. The action was taken by the
board in accordance with the request of
the council.
The report that there was a case of
diphtheria in this city was not true, no
case having developed here, and it is be
lieved that there is no imminent danger
from the scourge in this city.

On Heed's motion that Street Com
missioner Leonard's office be de

whereat King«bury retorted by referring
to the eumple of Christ on the cross in
the case of the thief and declared tbat it

late that example in this instance. At
thin juncture the forensic furore abated
abruptly, and the council again proceed

i>ruggi*t W. H. Chapmau has received
the material for the constrm tion ol a six
teen-foot boat for ute on the Yakima—
chiefly between this ;>oint and the hnnt
int: grounds in the vicinity of Toppeniah.
"It is grand sport," said Mr. ('., "to
shoot down over the rapid* between
thoae point*," but he diiln't «ay auything
alwiil how amusing it is to »hoot up over
the rapids in a very swift curreut after a
hard day's hunt in the marshes. How
ever, a number of Mr. Chapman's friends
await the completion of t!ie boat with •
noticeable degree of expectancy.
The school board of this city has just
received a physical and chemical apar
iilih, costing |123, for use in our public
school. A Wbratory is now in pr n-ess of
completion in the basement of Columbia
scrjnol building,and it will be a remarka
bly creditable preparation. Considered
in connection with the complete aparutus
it is a matter for congratulation that our
school will be so well equipped—better,
perhaps, than the ordinary city of ten
thousand people. A class of sixteen
memlters anxiously await the completion
of the lahratory.
The (iirln'Uuild of St. Michael's church

The petition to congress, circulated last
week in this city by M. U. Wills in behalf
ot the proposition to pension the few re
maining veterans of the Indian wars, was
headed by the names of all of the lending
officials, lawyers and business men of this
district and now contains a startling
array of names. It was the general ex
pression that congress should take imme

old frontier soldiers.
Lewis Jeordens and Miltou Waters,
who were convicted of inciting riot in the
hop fields up the Ahtanuiu valley, were
on Tuesday fined $7f> nnd costs each.
Judge Graves stated that the offense Ol
which they were convicted was a Berious
one, but, inasmuch as it was the initial
case of that kind, he would exercise a
decree of leniency that would scarcely be
warrantee! in a second case of co grave a
nature.

fruit, each specimen of which is nearly
as large as this one.
Bishop Junger, of Vancouver, who pur

Dr. Frank 0. Buckner, of Proeser, who
has been visiting in thi* city during the
past ten day* until Tuesday of this week,
was on Wednesday evening Mind on the
streets of Prossei In a dying condition,
expiring a few moments after unavailing
help had been tendered. He had just re
turned from a thirty-mile drive into the
country. Having stabled his horse, he
started toward his ollice. When crowing
the street he wai ->•• n to stumble and
fail. In the fall his chin struck a rock,
cutting his face badly.
His remains were properly cared for,
pending the arrival of Coroner Taggtrd,
who had been summoned by telegraph
Colonel Taggard, however, found no ne
cessity for an inqtieHt. There were no
marks of violence on his person, and the
opinions of his friends concerning the
cause of hi* sudden demise were practi
cally unanimous
The doctor had l>een drinking heavily
for snme days. On his person were 'onnd
chloral hydrate and other similar drugs
of which, it ia believed, he had partaken
excessively.
Coroner Taggard returned tonight,
bringing the remains to the undertaking
parlors of Lombard A Horslev, who will
embalm the body for shipment to his
people in Michigan.JJNews of the doctor's
sudden death was wired to them and an
answer was returned Immediately by the
agent of the American Kxpress company
to embalm the remains and ship tiiem to
Pontiac, Michigan.
Hr. Ituckner was probably 32 years old.
He had a wile ami three children in the
east. He has been in this section two or
three years and for a time enjoyed a rea
sonably lucrative practice at Prosser. He
wast a member of the Knights of Pythias
and, it is thought, also of the I. O. O. F.
His remains will probably lie sent east
on Friday night.
The wife of a well known business man
of this city departed suddenly on Tues
day morning for Port Townsend, Portland
or some other seaiiort, declaring with
unprintable emphasis that she had gone
forever, alleging that her legal spouse had
so flagrantly offended the laws of the
state and of society that she could no
loncer remain in the same municipality
with him. Serious counter-charges are
said to be possible. The llkkauj is in
vestigating the matt r, and if it be fonnd
that the charges be true on either or both
sides the public shall know the names of
these unhappy people. The social life of
husband and wife is never private when
the relations between them are so strained
at> to invite public interest and criticism,
ami it is beyond question the duty of the
press to protect society against conditions
produced by the commission of grave
offenses that tend to subvert good order
and outrage decency.
Fred Miller returned on Sunday last,
hitving turned liih back upon congress in
disgust, lie saw uo hope for the I'nited
Statps senate. He is quite sure it is irre
trievably past redemption. His visit at
the World's fair, however, was one un
broken series of grand pvntions. The
atmosphere of Chicago, he insists, was
filled to overflowing with merry music,
while the streets were in a similar condi
tion from the wild rush of the madding
throng. There were so many people
there that he couldn't count them and
attend to his business at the same time,
so he guetsed their number at somewhere
between seven and forty millions. "But,
seriously," said Mr. Miller, "the people
of Washington may safely look for the
greatest immigration to this state this
winter we have ever enjoyed. People are
coming to the northwest by the thousands
and there'll be no rest for real estate men
when the rush starts."
Flossie, the little daughter of It B.
White, the furniture man, jumped out of
a buggy on Wednesday evening and was
seriously hurt, the most painful injury
being the dislocation of the hip. Dr.
Gunn relieved the little sufferer, but it
will be many days before she may leave
her bed. Mr. White was taking his chil
dren home in the buggy when his horse
took (right at the rattle of a can in the
vehicle and started to run. The little
