Regents at Work.

We have gathered such information
regarding the doings OF the regents az
we could under the circumstances. We
will take up our report from our last issue
beginning with Saturday last: On that
date the board accepted the resignation
Of President Heston to date from March
oath; Prof. Hendricks resigned also /;
Prof. Lee Fairchild presented an appli-
cation for the chair of history, which
was not considered favorably by the
board. Regent Stearns absented HIM
self from the meeting, business having
called him away for day. On Monday
Lee Fairchild asked for a re-hearing,
which was granted him; he wished to
submit to the board his claims to a con-
tract for the position he held. They lis
tened but were unchanged. They visited
the college in body and attended chapel
exercises. Short addresses were made
by Blanford, Tannant and Ingraham; !;
they spent the rest OF the day in audit
ing bills. The regents are hampered in
their work owing to the loose manner in
which affairs have been run. There
seems to have been no system adopted
by the old board. The ex-treasurer's re-
port has not materialized, if indeed he
ever had one, and $4,000 Of last years
funds cannot be accounted for. A special
meeting may have to be called at Ia
coma, the home of ex-Treasurer Smith,
in order to have this matter Strengthened
up. Lee Fairchild and Pres. Heston put
on their war paint and made things
lively for time. Fairchild's open let

Ashes Again.

Another one OF Pullman's valued in
dustries has succumbed to the deveas-
tating element fire. At 2:30 Tuesday
while the maiority OF our citizens were
enjoying the MONDAY meal, smoke
was seen pouring from the flour mill,
and on investigation it was found to be
afre. The alarm was given and soon
the hose cart was on its way to the scene
of action followed by the hook and lad
der ontfit and crowds OF citizens. Some
DELAYS were caused but soon stream
was turned on and hose cart No. z.
came as a reinforcement and everybody
worked to save all they could but almost
a total lost was sustained. The ware
house and contents remained unharmed
although the building was badly scorch-
ed. Mr.. Baymiller was in the lower
part of the building when the fire was
discovered, but knew nothing OF it till
narties rushed in to find him. The
books and accounts were saved but with
dificultv. The origin OF the fire is not
known but is supposed to be sponta-
neous combustion. The plant was in
sured for $ll 100, in the following COM
panies: Fireman's Fund, represented
by Chas. q. Raby; Imperial and Orient,
bv Souires & Osborn; Northern, London
& Lancashire, Aetna, Moth British d
Mercantile, by f, W. Iownen. 1t Is
not known at present whether it will be
rebuilt or not. The company consist Of
Baymiller, W. H. Baird, W. II, Lacy
and Mrs. Alex. Mckenzie. The mill
had been in operation about three years
and had become ono OF the prominent
industries OF our cit and one we can Ill
afford to lose.

Jealousy.

One OF the raciest, most humorous and
thoroughly enjoyable lectures that it has
been the good fortune of Pullmanites to
listen to in many day was the one de-
Iivered by Rev. Harry Watkins, at the
Christian church, on Wednesday even
ing. His subject, Jealousy" was a
good one and was handled as only Mr..
Watkins can. 1t was looked at in q bus
iness, social, historic and religious light,
and was true to life. By request excel
lent music was furnished by Mark Jones
and son, on the organ and trombone !;
they received repeated encores. At the
close OF the lecture a rising vote OF thanks
was rendered Mr.. Watkins for his efforts
in the special meetings that have been
held in that church for the past two
weeks. He is magnetic speaker that
by his earnestness, humor and pathos
warns his way into the hearts OF the
people, and many will regret his depar-
parture, which occurred this morning.
He goes from here to Spokane

nooses over their willing heads and
tightened them with sacred words of
prayer to the Father Of all, for their fu-
ture happines and constancy. Congrat-
ulations and well wishes were plentiful
and heartfelt and the what-shall-
next pause that usually follows was
broken by E. X. Windus who unblush-
ingly kissed the bride and then others
emboldened by his success fell in time

AS shylook soeS Us.

The Boston Financial Gazette, Of
October IL, has an editorial in which
it remarks upon the value Of our
farming lands and sees In them the
usurer's chance. 1t says; 1T is Of
interest to note the advance in the
value Of farm property, as compared
with city property, which has occur
red during the past year, particularly
in the fertile farming sections Of east
ern Nebraska and Kansas, and in
many parts of Missouri, Iowa and
the Dakotas, for it exemplifes the
value of well-located farm property
as security for loans, as compared
with town and city property.
During the past sixty days in the
areas mentioned, farms have sold at
higher figures than at any time dur.
ing the past five years, and have
brought all the way from $25 to $50
per acre. No such prices, compare
lively, can be shown to have been
realized on urban or town realty, IN
fact, there has been no market for it.
The trouble with very many portions
Of the west is that the towns have
grown in advance of the farming SEQ
ton, and there is, therefore, every
reason to believe, and plenty of indi-
cations, that farm lands are TO ex-
perience an appreciation in value,
rather than town lots for some time
TO come."-Kansas Farmer.

Australian Ballot Law.

A great deal is being written about
the new election law and how to vote
under its provisions, In order to I'M
derstand the law thoroughly the cleo.
tion board in each township ought to
meet and read the law together and
discuss its provisions until they I'M
derstand it sufficiently to agree as to
its meaning. This done before the
day Of election there need be no diff
Guilty in promptly deciding every
question that may arise on election
day. There need be no difficulty
about marking the ballots for any vo-
ter who can read English.
If each voter will follow the in
structions printed on the ballot, and
on the card of instructions, there can
be no mistake in voting for the per-
son Of his choice There is one thing
to remember, make no m0rks on the
ballot except to the left of the candi-
date yoU 1Uish to UOte for. For in
stance, James Smith and John Brown
are the candidates for sheriff. Their
names appear on the ballot under
their party heading as follows:

FOR SHERIFF.
ron sHERIFF.

This cross to the left of John
Brown indicates that he is your
choice for the Office of sheriff. You
must mark a cross to the left of each
candidate you wish to vote for on the
entire ballot In case there Is others
waiting to vote, no voter is allowed
to occupy booth more than five
minutes, and in no case is be to be al
lowed to remain within the guard
rail more than ten minutes. After
marking the ballot it must be folded
SO as to conceal the names of the can
didates and marks thereon, and that
the printed Endorsements and initials
Of the judge Of election thereon may
be seen by the election board. The
bollot must be folded before leaving
the booth. Each voter must go in
side the guard rail as soon as he has
voted. In no case is any person al
lowed to take any ballot away from
the polling place. After receiving
his ballot, il the voter decides not to
vote he must return the ballot to the
Judge of election from whom he re-
ceived 1t. In case a ballot is spoiled
by any voter he can return it and Sc
cure another. All the ballots not
used, and all that have been spoiled
by the voter while attempting to vote,
shall be returned by the judges Of
election to the county clerk and his
receipt taken therefor.

Michigan Central Wreck.

The most horrible railroad disaster
of the year happened at Battle Greek,
Mich, last Friday, October 20. A
Raymond & Whitcomb Worlds fair
special collided with a west bound
day train loaded with passengers on
their way to the fair to participate in
the Manhattan day exercises, The
engineer and conductor of the special
are blamed with the accident and
both are now IN jail. The first three
coaches of the day train were COM
pletely telescoped and immediately
caught fire from the lamps.
The accident was q mile from the
fire station and before the water could
be turned on the cars were all de-
stroyed and the bodies burned 80 as
to be unacceptable. In nearly ev-
cry case heads, arms or legs we're
burned oil, and none can be identi.
fed. Twenty.six dead bodies were
taken from the wreck, most Of them
being charred beyond recognition.
AS the second coach crashed
through the third it swept the people
into the north end of that car in the
vicinity of the stove, where most OF
the bodies were afterwards found.
Many others were badly injured and
some will undoubtedly die. The
wreck was one Of the most appalling
Of this or recent years.
