DESCENDED FROM A KING.
Wisconsin Man Whose Ancestry Goes
Back to the Pokanoket Indians.


An American citizen descended from

the town of Chiffon, Wis, boasts Of
such a character in the person of Ste

the famous Indian King Philip of the
Pokanoket tribe of Massachusetts, the

old, and was brought TO Wisconsin.
He grew mp a sturdy lad, and when II
years of age he WAS as perfect a speci-
men of manhood as there could be
found in the country. His occupations
and sports were such as to make him
an athlete, and his endurance, tried in
long tramps through the forests with
little to eat on the way, was superhu-

Doctors frequently practice n curl
Gus little trick ON their patients. In
some diseases medicine is not only use.
less, but actually injurious. Yet when
man Is paying money for medi-
cal attendance he expects to see some
sign that he is getting due value in the
shape of bottles and pill-boxes. The
doctor in that case has no option but to
deceive. In typhoid fever, for instance,
no known drug Is of any use. The mi
, crobe must be left to tire himself out.
But TO please his patient the knowing
doctor always prescribes n bottle of
colored water. 1t is called Il place
bo." In other cases 1t is usual to give
bread pills. There are many extreme
! ly nervous people to whom any kind
of medicine would do harm. So the
doctor gives them couple of good
sized bread pills and says. "These will
give you sound nights rest" or
These will remove your headache. -
And the remarkable thing Is that they
do In fact, with bread pills the medi-
cal man can produce quite a variety of
effects.

factory.
General Tannatt proposed to form fire
brigades from the military companies of
the college, and the matter is to be con-
sidered by the board.
EI-United States Senator ]. B. Allen,
tho latest appointee as member of the
board, is expected to be here at the April
meeting Of the board, which will be one
OF unusual Importance.
President McCroskey made tho follow
ing statement TO the board:
"Ths buildings to be constructed the
coming summer are, first, science hall,
building for the accommodation OF the
departments OF botany, zoology, hacter-
iology, veterinary science, agriculture,
horticulture and geology; second, Ferry
hall, the boys dormitory third, an adj
dition to the mechanical engineering
building for the use of forge reom and
foundry. Science hall will be three
story building, about 100 to It's feet in
length, and so feet in depth. 1t will con-
sist OF north and south wing, 4Ox so feet
connected by central shaft about 52xS0
feet. She third story will contain the
museum of the college, which lie already
large and rapidly increasing. The ma
terial used in construction will be, like
ly, brick, though it is possible that some
of the plans may include some stone
work. The building will be located on
the present site Of College hall, which
will be removed to 3 more convenient
location near by. This building will
hem in the east side OF tho quadrangle,
which is the central feature of the COLI
ogs grounds.
Ferry hall will replace the dormitory
OF the same name, which was burned q
little over year ago. The building will
be lower and better adapted to the pur-
pose than the old building was. On ac-
count OF the reduced cost of building,
compared with 1892, it will be possible
to build larger building with the same
amount of money expended in that build
ing. Ferry hall will form three sides Of
a hollow square, opening to the south.
1t will face north, and will fern the
southern boundary of tho quadrangle.
The frontage will be about 135 feet and
the east and west wings about 81 feet in
depth. The building will be three
stories above the basement, the entrance
| being into the first story. The basement
Pullman herald. [volume] (Pullman, W.T. [Wash.]) 1888-1989, 1899-03-18

which will be wholly above ground on
the south and west sides, will contain
the large dining hall, about 40x80 feet {;
kitchen, pastry room, storage rooms,
rooms for the help, the stewards office,
a waiting room and few rooms for stu
dents. The students rooms will for the
most part be 12x14 in the clear, with .
large closet and q ventilating shaft for
each, md will be intended for the &C.
commodation of two students each.
Ample provision for bath rooms will be
made. The building will accommodate
between us and 200 students. The ma
terial will be the same as that of science
hall.
"The forge shop and foundry will be q
one-story addition to the mechanical en-
cheering building, about 3ox60 feet, and
will be fittedlup with FORCES, cupalo, etc.,
for the better accomplishment of the
work of this department.
"Thers will be considerable other con-
struction and repair work done on the
college buildings and ground during the
coming summer"

COLLEGE regents uEET.
P1ans for the New Buildings
- Discussed.
President Mccroskey Outlines the
Work to be Done.

The board of regents of the Agricui-
tural college adjourned TueSday after
noen. The board decided to advertise
for plans and sketches for the new build
ings at the regular annual meeting OF the
board April 8. The board will not let
the contract fer furnishing plans, but
will examine plans submitted and will
then employ al architect for the length
of time necessary to superentend the con-
struction of the new building. After
thorough discussion the board decided
this method was preferable to the usual
method for advertising for competitive
plans.
The board looked over the grounds
today in search of clay for the manufact-
urs Of brick for the buildings, and select
ed q spot wherethe clay seems to be of
the proper kind. The buildings to be
constructed will require about l 200, 900
common brick and about $50, 600 pressed
brick. These are to be manufactured
on the grounds, and the board will
accept bids up to April s for their manu-
facturs. The beard also provided for the
expenditure Of the 1880 appropriated
by the last legislature for additions to
the library and $3.50 for the gymnas-
ium.
By unanimous vote the board decided
20 join with the citizens Of Pullman and
local G. A. 4. post in extending an in
vitation TO the G. A. r. to hold it's next
onnual enrampnsnt here. and offering

allowance Of bills occupied the greater
portion OF the time before adjournment,
but the regent, found time TO visit the
armory and witness The 6rst half of a

IF YOU HAVE PAIN IN YOUR BLCK,

Let us give you piece Of advice: Pain
In the back is an almost infallible sign
of Kidney disease; a surer sign Is the
condition Of your urine, if you have q
pain in the back then look to the con1
dition of your urine. II is easily done.
Take a glass tumbler and fill it with.
urine, after it has stood "a hours; if il
has a sediment, if it is milky or cloudy,
If it is pale or discolored, stringy or
ropy, your Kidneys and Bladder are in
q dangerous condition and need imme-
diate attention, or the consequences
may prove fatal.

appear, how it relieves the desire to
