G. A. r. Veterans Want Offices.

CoLFAX, April 1S.-The old soldiers OF
Whitman county are going to make an
organized effort to gain for themselves
or their comrades "a lions share of the
appointments of state and county official
positions. Soon after the legislature ad-
journed there was considerable discus
sion aroused by the fact that a law had
been passed giving honorably discharged
soldiers the preference in appointments.
The law was dug up and discussed in all
its phases. 1t was even reported that
the Grand Army men had decided to de-
mand that their members receive all APP
pointments where they had in applica-
tions. Other members Of the Grand
Army denied that any official action had
been taken by that body. The matter
was finally dropped, and it seemed to
have been entirely lost sight of. Failing
to get any official action ia the G. A. r.
a call was issued for meeting of old SOL
diers to discuss the matter. This meet
lug Was hCId Ol1O Cs As lSs ioii % 'OW
days ago and the matter thoroughly dis
cussed, j. T. Brown, J. V. O'Dell, II. d
Hall and others taking part ins the dis.
cussion. 49, ..'-.---
A motion was made by J. T. Brown
and seconded by Letter, and carried
unanimously, that the chairman appoint
committee of nine ex-Union soldiers
for the purpose of receiving and passing
on applications for appointments under
the laws of the state of Washington, and
for the further purpose of seeing that
said laws were not evaded in Whitman
county; to address manifesto to all SOL
diers to meet here in Colfax in the near
future for the purpose OF forming a coun-
ty organization and calling all ex-soldiers
together at some future date. The COM
mittee appointed was composed of J. I.
Brown, L. D. Woodwork, William A. In
man, J. S. Buck, L. A. Du Bois, Capt.
Ewart OF Colfax, A. j. Bancroft of Lone
Pine, Justice Wiley of Palouse City, r.
Lanning, of Pullman.

Looks Like Early Action.

Suryeyor-General Straughan at Boise,
who is in charge of all federal surveys in
Idaho, has been notified by the interior
department to proceed Immediately with
completing the surveys on the Nez Perce
reservation in order that it might be
made available for opening as early as
possible. The Boise Statesman says in
this connection.
"Last October, acting under official
authorization, Surveyor General
Straughan issued to Deputy Edison D.
Briggs instructions for the survey Of GER
tain lands in Nez Perce Indian reserva-
tion. Owing to the approach OF winter
Mr.. Briggs replied that he could not un-
dertake the work until settled weather
this spring. General Straughan has just
received letter from the interior depart
ment conveying a request of the COM
missioner OF Indian affairs for the work
to be completed and the official plats
prepared at the earliest practicable date.
GAS the lands referred to will come
under the operations of the 'seyeralty
act this is another straw indicating that
the finishing touches are now being put
on by the officials in charge, preparatory

Perce reservation. Lewiston Tribune.

Apportioning School Money.

School Superintendent A. @. Butcher

the general school fund OF the county
among the various districts, says the Ad-
vocate. The amount is smaller than was
expected and will prove a disappoint-
ment to the district officers as well as to
holders Of warrants against delinquent
districts. 1t is only about one-half as
large as the apportionment made at this
time last year. The whole amount ap-
portioned was 27,672.93; of this one
third was distributed among the districts
in the pro rata OF teachers employed,
giving $37.1 for each teacher and the
other two-thirds according to the num-
ber of pupils each district is accredited
with, giving $2.40 per pupil. The
amounts given the districts employing

that the clerk had apparently made no

He came before them in person, when it
turned out that where the judges had

unnecessary; but the reverend gentle

esting stranger. The men were horri-
fed to find the dead body of Sloan,
partly decomposed, and burnt, lying on
the rude hearthstone, where there had
been fire. From all the indications 1t
appeared to the party of hunters who
made the CHASTITY discovery that the
hermit had fallen in faint on the fire
and died a terrible death there all alone
in that Ozark wilderness. The man
had evidently been dead several days
when the body was found. The re-
mains were given a very simple burial
by the hunters, and the secret Of
Sloan's life was never revealed. Some
persons thought that love disappoint-
ment or a deeper domestic sorrow had
driven the man into voluntary exile,
while others half suspected that the
hermit was q fugitive from justice and
sought concealment under an alias in
the wild solitude Of the White river
bottoms. After the death of the stran-
ger there never came to the Ozarks
whisper Of inquiry about the man.

On Bad Handwriting.
from Harper's Young People.l


One of the most important things for
boys or girls to learn is to write plain
ly, so that those who have to read what
they write are left in no doubt as to
their meaning. Several amusing stories
of the embarrassment which has follow
ed not learning to write legibly are told.
One of these is of a Massachusetts cler-
gyman who nearly got himself into a
peck of trouble because of the bad quail
ity of his hand writing 1t was more
than a century ago that this clergyman
had occasion to address a letter to the
general court of Massachusetts upon
some subject of great interes at that
time. When the letter was received
the court ordered the clerk to read it,
