Among the Students.

The orchestra and glee club are max
ing arrangements for some good pra,-
ticing in the near future.
We received telegram Wednesday
that the college Appropriation bill had
passed the legislature and become law.
Rev. Dunlap will talk to the Y. NJ. G..
A. and \. W. Q. A. ON Sunday, March
18th, at 3 o'clock. All are invited to at

The lawn tennis court has been in use
all the week by the lovers Of the game,
whose ardor was not cooled by the cold
wave OF the past week.
The frost Of last week caught some OF
our tender plants in the green house, as
the previous weather had been SO warm
that the freeze took us by surprise.
Monday morning Mrs. Sargent, with
Miss Sweetnam of Moscow, visited the
college, and make a tour of inspection
through the buildings and grounds.
Prof. Dow's class in forging is making
fine start, as some of the work turned
out by different students is as good as
any blacksmith could do, and all of the
boys take the greatest of pains in doing
the work.
Pres. Bryan returned from Olompia
Monday and gave us all the good news
that the appropriation bill was sure OF
passage, and the governors 81 mature.
This means a new dormitory for the
girls, a creamery, engine house, and
other improvements.
The students selected for the final ora

Farnsworth, and Messrs. Stratton, Doc
little, Ramsey, Totten, Smith, Lee,
Harrison and Savage. The contest will
take place on March 23d, in the college

Tuesday afternoon a spark from the
hue of the engine landed between the
brick work and the studding OF the en-
gine house, and in a few minutes the
whole side and half of the ceiling was in
flames, but the ready hose in the hands
Of Prof. Dow and the fireman soon
stopped the confagration without much
difficulty or damage.

Agricultural College Plans.

WALLA WALLA, March 9.-"What
have you to say for the agricultural col
lege today?" newspaper correspondent
inquired OF Regent H. S. Blandiord.
81 am anXiously awaiting definite
news of the legislature. Whether our
college shall remain at a dead stand.
still or shall make good progress during
the ensuing two years depends upon the
appropriations. The Spokesman-Review,
some weeks since, said that we had re-
ceived $l5,000-just 81 ,250 less than We
must have, per year, to maintain the
college as it now is; but on the Sd inst.
the same paper said there was hope that
we would get $4,000. If this be SO we
will give the people a fine showing for
the expenditure. We can run the agri-
cultural college for $4,000 per year cost
to the state, over the government appro-
priations. The remainder of the sum
asked for is necessary buildings and
appliances for permanent use for school
purposes. For instance, 500, 900 is asked
for to build girls dormitory. | need
not emphasize the necessity for this
when you are told there are more than
100 young men and women in the same
dormitory now. Then we have beauti-
ful new administration building ready
for occupancy, but no fn1rniture TO put
into it. We have given most striking
example in our Farmers Winter School,
OF what an agricultural college can do for
public education, even OF old men, as
well as children; but we have no fine
stock to show the farmer-students, not
even rudimentary dairy plant.
"We are absolutely in need OF expert
ment stations in some warmer climate
and lower altitude than Pullman's but
have no money to buy the lands, and
in these hard times people are slow to
give away good land to the state. Many
other things l could name. You will
find that everything that can be done

1t is reported that Il bjcyclist, while
riding across the Nez Perce reservation,
attracted the attention Of an Indian and
SO completely captivated him that the
wheel was soon exchanged for wagon
and team, with which the native was
hauling posts to fence his ranch. The
white man left the Indian trying to
mount the newly acquired vehicle and
drove into town. The last report from
the amateur bicyclst is that he tried to
make a reckless run down the Soldier
Canyon grade. The wheel went off on a
tangent and piled up on the rocks twenty
feet below the road, where wheel and
rider were both supposed to be in need
repairs.-Lewiston Teller.
"A bold attempt at burglary was made
in Fariss Bros. store this morning at
about s 80 o'clock. A large, red-whisk-
cred man, as described by Mr.. Cole, en-
tered the back door Just after the door
was opened for the day, and with n sand
bag or other instrument, struck Mr.. Cole
down, and then jumped over the counter
and opened the money drawer. AS no
sales had yet been made the drawer was,
of course, empty, and the bold burglar
left empty handed. Frank Fariss soon
entered and found Mr.. Cole in an uncon-
scious condition, and after resuscitating
him, pursuit was started after the thief.
At last reports no capture had been
made.
The TitteII sisters dramatic company
that appeared at the auditorium last Sat
urday was indeed a treat to al, lovers OF
good drama and excellent acting. The

tuition in Pullman, and the company
made so many friends at this that the
house was filled at the evening perform
ance, and "Drifted Apart won the APP
plause of all. The Tittells are a good
company, worthy their place in the high
est ranks.

Death of a Little Child.

Died, on Wednesday, March 9th,
Lewis Peyton, youngest child OF Mr.. and
Mrs. n. G. Myers, of Evansville, aged
10 months and 81 days.
Thus has death entered the home OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Myers, and taken the
most tender flower, dear little Lew. He
was always delicate, and after a week of
intense suffering his spirit fled to that
bourne from which no traveller returns.
Although his stay with us was so brief
everyone loved the little fellow. Weep
not, dear friends, we would not call him
back; weep not, for of such is the king
dom of heaven. The Rev. MIR. Pickel
conducted the funeral services, and spoke
words OF comfort and sympathy to the
stricken family. Mrs. DuFF.

without an outlay OF money has been
done.
'"The board of regents has been most
gratitied at the industry and public spirit
OF its professors. The winter school for
farmers shows what these men are will
ing to undertake outside OF their actual
and necessary duties. They have given
lectures all over the state and have
awakened q public interest in the work
OF the college which is OF incalculable
benefit to the state. The Spokesman
Review recently published an article on
the establishment OF beet-sugar factory
at Latah-a new industry with large cap
ital, employing many men and consum-
ing thousands of tons of beets and other
farm products, directly due to the work
of our college. Give us little money
just for expenses and we will soon edu-
cate the people on the possibilities for
varied industries in this young state.
You see, we are enthusiastic, butt am
very anxious to hear from Olympia"

Injured by a Horse.

r. S. Booth, well-known farmer iv-
iag near this city, was badly injured last
Sunday by a horse falling upon him. He
was on horseback trying to rope wild
COW, when, on being successful the COW
plunged around till the horse was pulled
over backward, with Mr.. Booth under
meath. One of the unfortunate gentle
mans hips was badly mashed, and the
LEG considerably bruised, whild the toe
C TX on the horses shoe was run through
one of the hands. Then, to further COM
plcate affairs, the COW made dash at
him, and further injured him, so that
when he was finally rescued his condi-
ton was most serious. The hip bone
and some of the bones Of the hand are
broken. He is now doing as well as his
injuries will allow.

What the Legislature has Appropriated
for the Agricultural College
Several New Buildings 10 be Erected
During the Next Year

The agricultural college and school OF
science has Jared well at the hands Of
the legislature this winter, and the on
ward progress of that great institution
will not be retarded.
The legislature started out with avowed
principles of economy, and 1T has lived
up to that principle SO far as consistency
would allow, but it had little to cut from
the appropriation asked by the regents
and recommended by the legislative COM
mittee, as the regents had only asked for
such amounts as it was of vital import
ance for the state to allow.
The general appropriation I'LL as
passed by both houses carries with it
$25, 900 for the maintenance OF the coll
ege and school OF science during the next
two years. This bill, will, of course, be
signed by the governor, as it is the bill
providing for the running expenses of all
our state institutions and offices.
The bill appropriating funds for the
carrying on of improvements, and the
erecting of buildings at the college was
passed and having received the COVER
nor's signature is now law. The items
contained in this bill are as follows:
For girls dormitory. y............. $4,000
For furnishing administration
building ................... 5000
For purchase OF land in front and
