The Carpenter Company,

Close readers of newspapers for few
years back will recall that at one time
there was in this country a
strong sentiment against the Russian
government because of the treatment
of political convicts in the mines Of
Siberia. In diplomatic relations the
United States has always been an ally,
to certain extent, and it looked at
that time as though the repugnance
OF large section of our people for the
penal system of the Car would oper-
ate to produce rupture Of the en-
teEte then existing between the two
countries. The feeling OF dislike for
Russia was fostered by the revelations
of Wellman and KEENAN,, the lectur.
ers. Nobody has forgotten the scenes
they described, and the play that deals
with such a subject ought to prove OF
unusual interest. Such one is "For
Her Sake" four-act melodrama,
which will be seen at the Olympia
Theatre Thursday night.

EXTRA PAY DEMANDED BY PETIT
JURoRs.-Trial jurors in Spokane have
demanded extra pay for night services
in cases which keep them on continu-
GUS duty after the ordinary hours OF
labor. Tho law prescribes So per day,
without fixing the hours which consti-
tute q judicial day, and it seems to be
nothing more than just that they be
allowed extra pay for overtime. The
session laws of 1899 provide tlsxt eight
hours shall constitute days work for
all persons laboring for the State, and
if that rule applies. it would appear
that jurors would have . claim for
triple time if they were engaged in
"work" from dawn to dawn. The
judges have the matter "under ad.
visement," and it is probable that the
jurors will receive some sort of addi-
tional compensation.

A DISEASE similar to CHAMBERS is
killing army horses and mules in the
Philippines. It is called "surra" and
is specially fatal to the latter. The
mortality where the attack developes
is very near 100 per cent. The infec.
ton is of parasitic nature, aud is a
whip-like worm, very lively in motion,
having vernacular, contractile and

complaint is pronounced an@mia, and
developes white instead of red blood
corpuscles. The disease lasts from
three to twelve weeks. but is not as
generally fatal 40 surra.

the capitol contractor up to his work,
the Olympian says:
When completed the written agree

as matter of law.
Just as he did his claim for DANA
ges for failure to complete award for
construction of the original capitol
building, simply to pave the way for
log-rolling a relief bill through the
Legislature. His success in that en-
terprise has emboldened him for the
present endeavor, but it is safe to say
that he will not have as easy lobby
ing as he did before, and that dilla-
tory proceedings will not avail at this
time.

EAST AND ACROSS THE SEA.-While
our heavy storm.season seems to have
abated. continued low temperature
and high winds prevail on the Allan.
tic seaboard. The wind in New York
attained q maximum velocity OF 65
miles an hour Monday, and two tugs
were sunk and a ship was driven
ashore. Many wrecks at sea are re.
ported. A fearful blizzard prevailed
in Central and Northern New York,
and snow in the latter district piled
up to the depth of three feet in eight
hours, and train service was greatly
delayed. In Chicago, last Monday
the temperature reached eight degrees
below zero and caused much suffering,
and 30 degrees below were recorded At
Philadelphia the same date. The
worst blizzard for many years has
ragged in Pennsylvania and caused
much damage to railroad tracks and
telegraph and telephone lines. The
same conditions seem to have pre-
vailed on the English coast, simultan-
eously. The wind recorded the same
velocity, 65 miles per hour, and Brit.
ish ships were knocked about. One
steamer is reported lost in q snow

WILL SET WATCHES AN Hour AHEAD.
Spokane is agitasing the question Of
substitution of Mountain for Pacific
time in that city, starting the wheels
of business industry an hour earlier
than they now revolve. 1t is pro.
posed to have the railroad extend the
Mountain division of time to that city
and arrange local business to corre-
pond with it. The main object to be
subserved is that better light will be
afforded in the schools. 1t is claimed
likewise that the change will give an
other hour OF sound sleep in the FORE
part OF the night. when rest is more
perfect, and working men will have
another hour of sunlight, verging on
twilight, in which to play base ball,
or to fix up affairs OF State on the curb
stone. By all means, let our neighbors
adopt Mountain" time.
