THE HIGH SCHOOL.
SEATTLE, Nov. Is, 1891.

SEATTLE, Nov. %, 1891.
To THE EDITOR: Mr. A. J. smoke has a very
temperate and admirable article in your paper
this morning on the subject OF the High school
and its needs. The article foreibly paints the
necessity OF some better quarters, and with all
that portion am in full accord. Mr.. Smoke.
however, says that he unders lands that some
members of the board are in favor of $4,000
building, and not long since saw it stated that
some of the members were in favor of buying
s250,O00 lot.
Now l believe that go as far as any member
of our board in the desire to provide suitable
present quarters for the High school and 10 so
arrange that a convenient location and building
may be had for that school in the near future.
Ii has seemed to me that the University site is
the only place now left which would fully fulfil
all the requirements, and have urged our board
to make terms with the university commissioners
for portion OF that tract Large enough for the
purpose; / should say one-quarter of the tract,
at price from $4,000 to $4,000. A building
could be erected which would take in the High
school, and for some years TO come relieve the
overcrowded grammar schools, at cost OF from
100000 TO $l25,000.
Such High school in such a location would
do more than properly house the scholars. 1t
would be an evidence to every newcomer that
the needs of his children. from an educational
standpoint, would be well cared for, and so in
duce many of the best people who come here TO
"spy out the land" to conclude to make this
their home.
Such a school building would not be beyond
our present needs, although it would provide
for the future for some time TO come do not
agree with Mr. Smoke that the future OF this
city is at all uncertain, but | do most heartily
concur in saying that such an expenditure
he seems 10 think is contemplated would be I'M
wise and unnecessary.
AS to the location of the school in one OF the
business blocks that question has been looked
into by our board, and II suitable quarters could
be obtained / think the board would accept
them as temporary relief should. as one
member, be opposed to subjecting the young
ladies who attend that school to the influences
surrounding any business quarter for any con-
siderable period, and il would only he es
choice OF evils that should consent to IL az ali.

He is also secretary of the Board of Trade OF

editor OF the Helena Journal, wheE Russell
Harrison was active in its management, and is
also interested in several Helena newspaper
properties.
The deceased held the Office of city engineer
OF Helena for two terms, and q gentleman who
knew him well in that state stated 70 q CORE
spondent OF the Posi- INTELLIGENcER that he
had been given to periodical imbibing spells
and was considered rather wild young man.
He came to this city, it is said, with the expee
tation OF securing employment in the engineer
ing department OF the Northern Pacific railroad.
IL is understood he had not been drinking be-
fore for eighteen months.
Yesterday he went To the Fannie Paddock
Hospatai anu stateu tnat ne nad Deen drinking
freely for several days. but had not taken any
intoxcants for two days, and desired TO sober
up. He was given connection of bromide and
choral and assigned 10 q room on the third
floor. For time he rested quietly, but after
eating supper in bed, he exhibited evidences Of
deirium, stating for instance that his coat and
vest. which were hanging up, looked to him
like two lovers. AT o'clock he attempted to
escape and got as far as the hallway. He was
quieted by a nurse, and when the house physi-
clan, DR.. McCutcheon, returned, he was quieted
by hypodermic injection of morphine. A
male nurse was assigned to remain with Walker
and watch him. About 3 o'clock this morning
the attendant left the room two minutes to Sc
cure some water. During his absence Walker
escaped by raising the window of his room and
leaping out into the darkness. His skull was
fractured at the base by the fall. The remains
were embalmed and will be forwarded to Helena.

Today the fight between the Portland and
