A case of which mention has been
made in these columns before, and which
has attracted much comment in this
county, is that of Coolidge VS. Larue on
which Judge Sullivan handed down his
decision last Saturday, says the Com
monsr. The suit was first brought by
G. I. Cross of Palouse City, school
district No. 9, to compel County Treas
urer Larue to pay over the $4,000 re-
caived from the sale of bonds to the
banks of the city, to be kept IN the dis
trict instead Of in the custody OF the
treasurer. The case was brought again
by Alfred Coolidge, asking an injunction
preventing the payment. After long
elaboration on the part of the court a
decision was handed down, granting the
injunction prayed for and sustaining the
treasurer in his refusal to LEI the money
pass from his own custody. The de-
cision furnishes precedent and the case
was really test case. What was de-
manded by No 9, might be, with equal
propriety, asked by any one of the one
hundred and thirty districts of the coun-
ty. The law specifies that the county
treasurer is ex officio treasurer of the
school districts OF the county, and as
such he is under bonds to keep The mon
eys belonging to the districts in his
custody until bills are audited and al
lowed. 10 this case the demand was
made before the money was needed to
pay any debt incurred. The money can
be paid out only as needed to satisfy the
claims of creditors of the district. On
the grounds on which the claim of No.
9 was made, the board Of any district
might demand at any time all the moneys
placed to its credit on the books of the
treasurer. Judge Sullivan says no to
the claim.

CHILL DEFIANT,
Refusing to Accept the Responsible

Refusing to Accept the Responsible
ity for the Baltimore Outrage.
A cablegram from Santiago, Chill, says:
The Gillian Government has replied to Min
lister Egan's demand for an explanation of
the recent attack upon American sailors.
The reply is couched in strong language, and
it is understood that it amounts to a refusal
to accept responsibility for the affair. The
State Department at Washington has been
advised of the reply. Minister Eyan, Com
mander Schley and Consul McCreery are
consulting together, and it is thought that
decisive action will be taken soon. The
State Departments orders in reference t.
the matter are strong.
The Intendente of Valparaiso has refuse
to guarantee the safety of market boats
coming to that city early in the morning
from the United States warship Baltimore,
or the safety OF officers of that vessel coming
ashore at night. There is a practical boy
colt on the Baltimore. No American sailors
are allowed ashore.
Great excitement was caused by report
that the Chiiian Legation in Washington
had been attacked.

More Convicts Freed.

The Tennessee mountaineers have fulfilled
their threats. The last convict is gone from
the Waldern's Range region. The stock
AIDES are destroyed. After freeing the con
victs at Briceville and Coal Greek, the mob
of miners marched to the convict stockade
at the Big Mountain mine, five miles north of
Oliver Springs There were 165 convicts
confined there, all OF whom were liberated.
Thus all the Tennessee stockades are dis
mantled or burned, and more than $50 des-
peradoes roam the mountains and valleys Of
Northeastern Tennessee and Kentu ky.

FIVE LIVES LOS T.
Heroic F'iremen Perish in a Burn
ing Hotel at Hamburg

An exciting scene was witnessed few
nights ago at Bergedorf, suburb of Ham
burg, Germany, when the Hotel Schwerin
was burned and five lives lost. Many of the
inmates had narrow escapes, and the work
of the fremen, owing to the construction of
the building and the rapidity with which the
flames spread, was full of danger. A COM
pany of ''negro minstrels," who had
been playing in Hamburg, were lodged
in the upper story Of the hotel Three of
them found their escape cut Off ana though
their doom seemed to be sealed, two brave
fremen volunteered, in the face of almost
&ertain death, to go their assistance. Just
as the two rescuers had reached the floor
upon which the three ministries were hemmed
in by flames the building collapsed, and all
five were plunged into the blazing mass and
persisted.

Hot or Cold Applications.

When IN certain painful affections the
physician advises the use of cold applica-
tons, and, if the effect from them is NOT
pleasing, then that hot should be tried. the
patent Is likely to consider it rather an
uncertain sort of treatment, of doubtful
value either way. 1t is, indeed, rather a
curious thing that heat and cold can oftan
be used INTERCHANGEABLE with like effects.
Extreme heat will destroy the skin, and
extreme cold will do the same. Now, head
acne Is sometimes relieved by hot app.ica-
lions, and yet in some instances it agra
Yates the trouble. In case of the latter
oftentlmes the cold applications will effect
cure; As general rule a throbbing
headache, with tenderness and soreness of
the scalp, can best be relieved by hot annIi-
cations. Whereas, when the head feels full
and bursting" if cold be applied to the
head and heat to the neck and spine the
effect is most agreeable.

Simple Method of Removing a Needle.

DR.. Charles Steele describes in The Brit
ish Medical Journal the method success
fully used by him in the case of a young
girl who had needle in her heel The
needle was broken and could not be ex-

a large thick corn plaster around the spot,
with little wet cotton wool in the center,
and to tread freely on the heel. Within a
week afterward the needle protruded and

The Graceful Way to Do 1t.

The manner in which a woman leaves
and enters her vehicle is advanced by some
writer as a test of whether she was born in
the purple, or at least accustomed to car
rage life. This authority SAYS: "She
should have one foot out and firmly set
upon the carriage step before she relin-
quishes the sitting posture; then the body
should follow easily and naturally Moth
ing is more awkward than to see a woman
thrust her head forth first, and then find
herself forced to double herself up to &C
complish the rest of the exit. Watch one
who knows how to gracefully sink her
weight from one foot to the other almost
without losing a perfectly perpendicular
position, securing instantly walking poise
as she touches the ground, and the differ
ence of her method and that of another
who lands very nearly in tumble on the
sidewalk will be discernible.

The Baby's Thumb in Mischief.

How many mothers realize that when
baby is allowed to quiet herself by sucking
her thumb it usually results in the upper
teeth protruding in a very ugly waye If
the two middle fingers are her comfort,
then the lower teeth force themselves out.
1t never seems to dawn upon the infant
mind that this delight is not unalloyed,
but surely the pretty maid will blame you
when she realizes what altered the shape
OF her mouth from dainty rosebud into a
detormity. for in extreme cases it really be-
comes that.

One Should Show a Gentle Hospitality to
the Thoughts of Another.
y distinguished conversationist of the
past was wont to say that the secret of be-
ing agreeable in conversation was to be
hospitable to the ideas of others. He af-
firmed that some people only half listened
to you, because they were considering,
even while you spoke, with what wealth of
wit, with what fine words they should re-
ply, and they began to speak almost before
your sentence had died from your lips.
Those people, he said, might be brilliant,
witty, dazzling, but they could never be
agreeable. You do not love to talk to
them. You feel that they are impatient
for their turn to come and that they have
no hospitality toward your thoughts-none
of that gentle friendliness that asks your
idea in and makes much of it.

when no agreement is made is but FIVE
per cent. The sections of the law that
