HEAL/THY INCREASE IN
POSTAL REOEIePTS
Pullman Postofflce Shows Increase of
$HB.l> Receipts Over Lust Year.
The total postal receipts of the lo
cal postofflce for the fiscal year end
ing March a Ist, 1911, were $14,
--277. This is an increase of $88f>
over the previous year, when the re
ceipts were $13,392, and was the
most prosperous year of th,- Pullman'
Office, The record of the office, how
ever, has been one of Increase, every
year having shown a growth over the
previous period.
As the year has been the best ever
experienced by the postofflce, so was
the quarter ending December 31st,
the best three months of the office,
the receipts for that period being
$4 058.
When Postmaster Allen was in
stalled in the office, in 1902, the re
ceipts for the year were $6180, and
sine- that time Uncle Sam's local
patrons have Increased their pur
chases of postage stamps by about
an even $1000 yearly. This remark
able growth is an index of the strides
made by Pullman In population, as
every year has shown a correspond
ing growth of the city, and statistics
show that postal receipts and popu
lation Increase in a like proportion.
When our postal receipts were $6180,
the federal census credited Pullman
with 1308 people, so that with the
present receipts we should have a
population of approximately 3000,
which would bear out the claim that
Pullman noses were not all account
ed for In 1910.
Hardware Store Robbed.
The Hamilton hardware store was
entered early Saturday morning and
the safe robbed of about $50. The
safe was locked when the store clos
ed In the evening and the combina
tion was worked by the burglar.
Only large pieces of money were
taken, a large number of nickels and
dimes being left undisturbed. En
trance to the store was gained by
cutting away the wood around the
lock of the front door and forcing the
door open with a pry.
The Pullman Fire Department has
received fifteen waterproof coats, one
for each member of the department.
The coats cost $81, the money being
raised by the firemen through their
dances.

l'ullman Wins Debate.
The Pullman high school debating
team, composed of Russell •Chamber
lain; Helen Hungate and Will Nessly,
won the third debate of the county
series by defeating the Rosalia high
school team on Friday night, March
21. The del,at.- was held in the high
school assembly hall and a fair sized
crowd attended. The question was
the same debated by all the other
'county teams this season: "Re
solved, Thai Federal Control of the
Natural Resources Is Preferable to
State Control." The Pullman team
upheld the negative side of the ques
tion and was awarded the decision
by the judges, Dr. (Jaw and Prof.
Paul Vogt, of the W. S. ('.. and Prof.
Work, of the Cheney Normal.
On the same night the LaCrosse
team defeated the team representing
the Elberton high school, having the
affirmative side of the question.
This eliminates all the county teams
excepting thus,- of Pullman and La-!
Crosse from the county champion
ship race and these teams will de
bate for the final championship some
time next month. The date of the
last debate will be decided at the
count] teachers' institute- at Colfax
this week as will also the place and
the sides which each team will be
given. Pullman high school won
the ran offered for the championship
last year, but must win it for three
successive years to retain permanent
ownership. Prof. F. X. Bryant has
, coached both the teams of last year
and this and much credit is given
• him for the success of both teams.

Websterian Play]
Members of the Websterian de
bating society are rehearsing daily
on the sixth annual Web play, which
will be presented In the College
Auditorium on Tuesday evening,
April 18th. Previous to tins year
something in the nature of a com
edy has always been presented by
these pioneers in college dramatics,
but this year it was decided to pre
sent a play of a much more difficult
nature than hitherto attempted,
hence the choosing of Arthur W.
Pirlero'B four-act drama. "His House
In Order." The play Itself is of Eng
lish setting, and one very seldom at
tempted by amateurs on account of
its several hard parts, and the dram
atic ability necessary to present it
well; nevertheless the Websterians
promise it to be the most successful
of all Web. plays.
Aiming the members of the cast
are .Miss Bessie Harlowe, Clarence
Cooil and Howard Melvin, all of
whom starred in last year's play, "A
Bachelor's Honeymoon." Other
members are the Misses Taylor, Tur
ner, Cook and Perry, Joe Philips,
Harold Dammon, Frank Jenne, Ern
est Stewart, Howard Gregory and
George Watt.
Special opera music for the even
ing has been ordered by Ernest Fitz
slmmons, and will be rendered by
selected artists from the College or
chestra.
The public schools have been clos

tute at Colfax.
