SPOKANE, Feb. 20. President Hill of
the Great Northern returned east this
evening after making one Of the most
successful tours of the northwest since
the palmiest days of Willard. He came
first to Spokane, met 1900 citizens in
the opera house, explained the difficulties
his line must encounter to get into the
city and what he proposed to do if he
should come here, and then modcstly
asked for the right-of-way through the
city. A mass meeting promptly voted it
to him. Then Hill referred them to his
engineers for details. 1t was then learned
that the contemplated right of-way drove
right through the heart of the city, and
avoiding the use of streets called for
about four miles of private property.

He expressed his belief that the present

 Ex-Governor Beaver the Orator-De-
 scription of the AEOnument.
 GETTYSBURG, Pa, June 8-The High Water Mark Monument was dedicated here yesterday Afternoon In the presence of an immense throng largely composed of Union veterans, in which the First, Second, Third, Fifth, Sixth, Eleventh and Twelfth Army Corps, an we'll as the artillery and cavalry, were we'll repre- sented, together with the representa- tives of the Army of the Potomac, the executives of this and adjacent States and others.
 Gov. Pattison and party, numbering 200 persons, arrived early. Among the party were Mrs. Pattison, Major General Snowden, Col. Austin Curtin, Col. Charles Green and the members of the Supreme Court, Captain Booth of the United States Army, Col. Chambers McKibbin, Adjt. Gen. Greenland and staff, Private Secretary Tate and Guar termaster Mcclellan. Immediately upon the arrival the Governor and party were taken to the High Water Mark Monument
 President Harrison was expected, but Col. Bachelder received "a telegram in the morning from Private Secretary Hal ford, saying that President Harrison found 1t impossible to attend the dedi- cation. The Marine Band, however. ar rived at noon. The exercises at the monument began at o'clock. Rev. Fl. w. Mcknight, of the PennsylvRnia Col lege, opened with prayer. Hon. Edward McPherson extended welcome to the battlefield. Col. Bachelder told why the copse of trees was called the High Water Mark.
 Samuel M. Swope, of Gettysburg, un- the Memorial Association, and John M. Vanderslice, of Philadelphia, received it. Ex-Gov. James A. Beaver delivered the oration and James Jeffrey Roche, of | Boston, read the poem. Short addresses l were also made by Gems. SchoAeld, Slo- cum, Webb and Veasey and other prom inent military men.

 marks the spot where Captain Andrew Cowan put his New York battery from

 viously held the point had been dis
 abled. In the fight Captain Cowan lost
 all his commissioned and non-commis-
 stoned officers and had to serve 8 gun
 himself. The monument bears an in
 scription that tells significantly what 6

 of Pickett: "Double canister at ter
 yards"

Southern Enterprise.

The southern states are planning to spend nearly two million dollars upon the worlds fair. With this amount the interests of the south can be well repre- sented, and we are exceedingly glad to note that interest is growing in the matter throughout the south at such 8 rate that 8 much larger amount of money will probably be raised than is now counted upon. There has been much delay in commencing work, but now that interest has been generally awakened there is a very gratifying display of activity on all sides. This betokens much good to the south, for at present there is nothing of such vital importance to the south as this great exposition. We hope that the plans now under consideration will be successfully carried out, that much wider interest will be awakened, and that much more money will be available for worlds fair purposes in the south.

How the ColunabIan Guard Fgfn Be Con-
 stltuted.
 When visitors enter the worlds faiz grounds next year they will find Co- Iunnbian guard of fifteen hundred men to protect them in their wanderinga about the grounds and buildings. The guards will not have the appearance of the policemen who travel beats in the city of Chicago, but each will be clothed in natty uniform of blue, consisting of a braided blouse and trousers, with bright red stripes. They will wear . fatigue cap modelled somewhat after an Austrian design, and carry a ma hogany mace and a short bayonet sword.
 These men will be under the direc- tion of Col. Edmund Rice, U. s. A. Col. Rice will be the commander of the guard and have general police super vision over the grounds during the period of the fair. In order to secure his services special act of congress was necessary, and 1t was passed, for the colonel belongs to the department of the Missouri, with headquarters at Chicago, where he has been under Gen. Miles as acting judge advocate. Col. Rice is the hero of moro than a score of batt1esin winch he participated in the late war, and as q consequence of which he received number of wounds. He entered the service at the age of nineteen as captain of the Fourteenth Massachusetts. In 1882 he was pro- moted to major, and at the battle of Gettysburg was twice wounded in the repulse of Pickett's charge. On that occasion he plunged forward with his command, and is credited with being chiefly instrumental in repelling Pick ett's assault. In reward for this service he was last year given medal by com gress, the inscription of which read: ''The congress to Lieut.. Col Edmund Rice, Nineteenth Massachusetts, Volun- teerse for conspicuous bravery on the third day of the battle of Gettysburg" 1" No sooner had the colonel taken hold of the work several weeks ago than he discharged number of men whom he | found. lettering on their routes and gen. erally'inattentive to rules. He wasn't long in strengthening out the two hun. dred men whom he has under his di- rection at present and establishing a system of discipline that causes every man to ''toe the mark"
 The Columbian guards will be 8 fine body of men. No one can enter the service whose age is more than thirty five years. The applicant must be in telHgent and active. He must be courteous as well as muscular and capa ble of giving information concerning the grounds and buildings to all in quirers-

IF the claims set up by the republicans in the quo warranto case are allowed by the supreme court, the democratic state officers will be declared elected. This may seem paradoxical, but it is easily explained. The claim of invalidity against the alleged defective ballots is practically the same on both sides, ex- cept in the case of the Bridgeport ''specked" ballots. The democrats have questioned the validity of 1,750 prohibI- tion, labor and republican tickets not bearing the printed name of the candi- date for judge of probate. If these bal lots are pronounced invalid by the courts Mr Phelan will have a majority. At this distance it looks as though the republican counsel were trying to delay matters so that the case will be too late to be considered by the supreme court at the June term.

A COMPANY composed of New York capitalists has been formed to construct a dam in Box canyon in Arizona which will be two hundred feet in height, and the backwater will extend sixteen miles to the Sierra Ancha mountains. The capacity of the reservoir will be the largest in the world-one hundred and three billions of cubic feet of water. The estimated cost of the work is not to exceed one million five hundred thou sand dollars. The water will be used to irrigate the Gila, Verde and Salt val leys as far as Yuma.

WOMEN IN A JELLY PALACE.
California Lady AGanagers' Novel Feature
 for the Main Building.

California Lady Man0gers' Novel Feature
 for the Main Building.
 The California woman's board has decided to erect jelly palace in one of the main buildings. The plan calls for a quaint Gothic structure, and the framework will be encircled by strings of crystal, while stained glass will form the structure proper. There will be either separate adobe structure out side or fanciful booth inside the Cali 8ornia state building for 8 souvenir stand.
 Archaeology and ethnology will also receive particular attention in the Cali fornia exhibit. The state's romantic period ante-dates the discovery of gold, when the priests and cavaliers of Spain battled for supremacy over the descend ants of the Aztecs, and the relics of that time have now been completely col 1ected. In addition there will be a state banquet under the special management of Mrs. Frona Wait, lady manager, who originated the plan. It will be set in the state building and composed entire 1y of California products; not only the viands, but the silver, glass, porcelain and the table itself. A concession for the cafe is already under consideration, thus insuring cooking facilities, and the cold storage transit will provide the arrival of California fruits and food of every description perfectly fresh and in admirable order. A special commit tee of fifteen is appointed to carry out each of the plans The chairman of each committee is member of the state board, but the remainder of the several committees are made up of out siders, with view to enlisting the general public in the work. A fee of one dollar will constitute membership, and will contribute to the worlds fair fund
