the county last Sunday night and
Monday. In Pullman the rainfall
was much lighter than at other
points, but still considerable dam
age was done to fall wheat in this
section. In Colfax and vicinity
over an inch of rain fell and this
was accompanied by a driving wind
that knocked down entire fields of
ripening fall wheat. The exact
damage will not be known until
the grain is cut as much that is now
lying flat may rise enough to per-
NIT of its being saved. About our
city many farmers say the rain will
be of great benefit to the late sown
spring grain and will greatly in
crease its yield, thus helping to off
set the damage the fail grain may
have received. What we need now
is a few days of warm dry weather
and the threshers will be heard
merrily humming on all sides.
According to instructions is
sued at the last meeting Of the city
council, Marshal Lanning arrested
J. p. Hull and escorted him into
the presence Of the police Judge,
! K p. Allen. From the sensational
reports that have been Industrious

few weeks it was supposed that Sc
rious charges of some sort would be
preferred, and convincing array of
racy testimony produced. But
when His Honor adjusted his spec
tacles and read the complaint, he
found that it merely charged the
prisoner with creating disturb

Judge fined him $40 and costs.

the building committee OF the col
lege which was held in the office of
II. w. Garfield. Those present
were Regents McCroskey and Can
field and Pres. Bryan, secretary of
the board. The object of the meet
ing was the letting of a contract to
n. Jansen, Of Moscow, to do the
brick work on the new forge room
and foundry, the appropriation for
which was provided by the last leg
islature. Mr.. Jensen agreed to do
the work for $l3I5, and the board
considered this to be a fair bid.
The committee estimated that at
least $4,000 would be saved to the
state in accepting this bid instead
Of those submitted in response to
their first call. The woodwork,
/ which will consist of about 1000
feet of flooring and the roof will
be let by contract or the board will
buy the material and hire the work
done.
"A number of our local sports
men have been out this week trying
their luck at this years crop Of

with much success and all report
that they seem to be very scarce.
Tomorrow will decide that question
as, if it is a nice day, every body who
can hire or borrow a gun will be
out. The fact't that there is 80 little
grain cut in this section, makes
them hard to find now but later
when heading is over, it should not
be hard to secure good bag, as
quite number have been reported
from outlying farms.
In spite of the wet weather,
building operations continue on the
new college buildings. The ends
and one side of Ferry hall have
now reached the top of the first sto-
ry and Contractor Barrett expects
the entire first story to be done by
to night. The number of masons
is to be increased shortly and the
work will be pushed in order to
have the buildings completed, if it
is possible, in time for the opening
OF the next term Of school.

Serious condition. Governor Rogers
and Il relief train were early on the
scene
Tie origin of the accident is yet I'M
known, bat it is supposed that miners
working between the 3U0-foot and 600
foot levels broke into the old mine
workings, which are filed with gas.
An explosion followed as soon as this
outpouring gas came in touch with the
first miners lamp. The conclusion was
sufficient to blot out the lives of nearly
half the miners in shaft No. Z.
Governor Will Investigate.
Governor Rogers will conduct q
searching examination az to the cause
OF the explosion. He telegraphed State
Mine Inspector Owens, now at Spo-
kane, to attend the inquest and ex-
anime witnesses himself. The question
of insufficient ventilation of the mine
in accordance with the state law will
be thoroughly gone into.
The Carbon Hill mines are owned by
the Pacific Improvement company, an
offshoot of the Southern Pacific Rail-
way company. The output of 100 tons
day is shipped to Tacoma by rail, and
thence to San Francisco and Oakland.
The mines are the second largest in the
