The O. R. & N. company are {

north side of depot three car lengths.
This will enable draymen to unload from
four cars at once instead of one as at
present. They have also had door cut
through from the office to warehouse; a
much needed improvement.
DIR. W. A. Egbert, of Walla Walla,
called at our Office Friday. The DR..
makes speciality of treating nasal ca
tarrh. He told us he had treated over
500 cases at his home, and over 1900
cases within the last three years. 1t is
his purpose to come to Pullman one day
each month. His recommendations are
frst-class.

Are we to have a top dressing of
rock or gravel put on our streets this
fall? Certainly this should be done or
the streets will be impossible during the
rainy season, as the loose dirt with which
they have been filed is not yet settled
Mr.. True and others have set the ex-
ample; let each property owner Ego and
do likewise"
Quite an exciting horse race was run
yesterday, in Fairs meadow, half mile
west of town, by Rayburn's black horse
and Hummiston's bay horse. The race
was a distance of $50 yards and was won
by Rayburn's horse by about length.
Several persons won money on the out
come of the race, but like number have
learned to their sorrow that betting on
horses is not sure way of getting rich.
The hop given last night by the
base ball boys was brilliant affair.
About 80 couples were present, among
whom we noticed representatives from
Palouse City, Moscow, Colfax and other
neighboring towns. An excellent sup
per was served at the Grand Hotel, and
everyone present seemed to thoroughly
enjoy themselves. 1t was a success,
financially to the club and socially to
the participants.
Blessed is the man who sitteth not
in the seat of the kicker nor mingles
himself with the congregation of the
but his delight is in new
railroads and brick blocks, and his
to build up himself and his own
town. And he is like an evergreen tree
planted by the river of waters; his leaf
shall not wither in the early fall like the
cottonwood, for the Eli of the boomer
shall get there, but the kicker shall be
left to hold the bag.-Ex.
David Clifford is keeping pace with
the advance of the country. Last Sat
urday a number of his neighbors were
at his, place three miles south of town,
and assisted in raising the frame of his
new barn, after which the host served
a fine supper to his friends. The barn
is commodious structure and is built
with a view to having everything handy
and convenient. More of such barns as
this are what our farmers need to make
life more pleasant for them.
w. F. Hull, of Colfax, and Mae Pat
rick, of Moscow, Idaho, were quietly
married at that place, Thursday, Octo-
Der 10, in the parlors of the Del Norte
Hotel. Rev. Lloyd, of Pullman, uttered
the wedding service in a happy but i'm
pressive manner. Both bride and groom
are well and favorably known in Pull
man where a host of friends Join in wish
ing them long life of happiness. I'm
mediately following the ceremony the
happy couple departed on bridal tour
to Portland and the Sound cities.
1t is burning shame that SO many
full grown men, and some of them en-
joying the reputation of being respecta-
BILE business men, will crowd into the
postoffice while the mails are being
opened, and occupy space that properly
belongs to the boys from eight to four
teen years of age, who wish to engage
in scufling and yelling like savages,
while they are waiting for the important
mail matter they are constantly expect
ing to receive. A public indignation
meeting should be held and resolutions
passed condemning this intrusion upon
the rights of the boys. And if after this
their rights are not respected, it perhaps
would be good idea for parents to keep
their boys at home nights.
