COURT HOUSE NOTES

Testimony in the damage suit
brought against the Northern Pacific
by b. Il. Stodd is being heard in
Judge Bets division today. Stodd
was employed by the railroad COM
pany as fireman and was injured in
collision which occurred west of
North Yakima.
Deputies McElroy. Winston and
Lewis of the county treasurer's Of
flee have returned from their trip to
British Columbia in search of timber
claims. They report that their sue
cess as prospectors was beyond ex-
pectations, and that there is every
reason to believe that in the near
future the claims which they pur-
chased will make their matrimonial
aspirations possible. The stories
which the trio relate of the wealth
in store for those who go north on
prospecting tours of this kind has
aroused the speculative propensities
Of Deputy Harry Dearling, and he
will in all probability set out on a
similar mission in a few days.

MORE COLD WEATHER.
Observer Stewart Declares Spokane
People VIII Continue to SILVER
for Some Time.

Charles Stewart, who is responsible
for Spokane weather, shook his head
gloomily as The Press reported asked
about the weather prospects for the
rest of the winter season.
I'VE are not out Of the woods yet"
said he, land may catch some ex-
tremely cold weather by March. The
warm weather just south of us has
been affecting Spokane so far.
THE temperature did not take a
decided drop until this morning. 1t
was the sharp wind which sprung up
that gave people the impression of
extreme cold.
The lowest temperature yesterday
was % and the mercury was as high
as SO yesterday morning.
The temperature has so far this
month averaged the unusual height of
33 above zero.
