W|Iaa Wa|Ia Athletic Club
Well Equipped.
new APPARATUS IN POSITION
Experienced Instructor Has Been En-
gagged to Assist the Members in
the Work Of Development.

After many months Of weary wait
ing for new equipment which was so
frequently delayed as to cause Secre-
tary Verdinius to almost despair the
Walla Walla Athletic Club at lasts
boasts of as fine an athletic outfit as
can be found in the northwest.
Owing to the many appliances made
use of in the Development of the
physique, it taxed the ingenuity of
the club officials to arrange the diff
ferent machines and not overcrowd
the gymnasium department. AS it
looks now, this section of the club
would remind one of the finely equipp-
ed Y. M. C. A. gymnasium of Port
land or Seattle. From the ceiling
rows of Roman, and travelling rings
are suspended while on the walls
are Systematically arranged, chest
machines exercisers, finger machines,
wrist machines quarter-circle exer-
ciser punching bag, tumbling machan-
ism, fencing fOils and row upon row
of Indian clubs and dumb bells. A
climbing ladder, pole, and rope, are,
like the rings, to be found neatly lash
ed from ceiling to wall in a manner
that prevents interference with rou-
tine floor work. Likewise the double
trapese and swinging bar. On the
floor, horizontal bars, for both children
and adults, are located; likewise a
jumping bar, parallel bars, rowing
machine perpendicular bar and vault
ing horse. At the south end a large
wrestling mat has been laid, well
padded for possible emergencies. In
the rear Of the gymnasium is located
the bath rooms. where hot and cold
shower baths may be obtained. Up
stairs is located the dressing rooms,
in which are several scores of lockers
which are at the disposal of club
members.
An experienced athletic instructor
and masseuer is in charge and patrons
are thus given the advantage of the
immediate attention of a skilled ply
steal culturist, who assists them in
the proper development of their
phsique.
With all these inducements offered,
it is to be hoped that sufficient pa
tronage will be given by the general
public to what is really the most ex-
cellently equipped gymnahium that
this city has ever been privileged to
boast of.

ELMO RtSER WHITMAN'S STAR
WaIIa WalIa and PendIeton Teams
Play to a tandstiII-Neither Ele

Whitman college went down to de-
feat before the Pullman giants yes
terday afternoon to the tune Of IS to
6, after the Quickest, headiest, snap
piest game that she has played this
season.
In spite of the fact that the Aggies
outweighed the Missionaries IS pounds
to the man the latter kept their oppo-
nents and the spectators guessing from
start to finish as to the result. The
game between Pullman and Whitman
is always exciting on account of the
keen rivalry between the institutions
but it is doubtful if a more Spectacu-
lar game was ever played on Whit
man grdiron than that of yesterday
afternoon. 1t was a beautiful game to
see as the knights of the gridirOn
rushed each other from one end Of the
field to the other, time after time. The
roofing was good and when Elmo
Reser made the touchdown for Whit
man on a fake quarterback kick the
enthusiasm knew no bounds in it eX-
preston. Every Whitman player was
on his toes" from beginning to end. 1t
is hard to pick out the stars because
HoOper's tackling on defense was
something fierce. Time and again he
tore through Pullman's whole line and
downed the man with the ball. Reser
was the hero of the sidelines. His
IS yard run to a touchdown was the
feature of the day. Hill did some fine
ground gaining. Butchers punting was
far ahead of his opponents. Perringer
as field captain directed the plays for
the last half in a mastery manner.
Helm although hurt in the head
early in the game stayed in and grit
tily held down a man 25 pounds heav-
Ter than he during the whole game.
O'Neil of Spokane made some of the
prettiest tackles of the day. Rigsby,

breath although occupying positions
where little grand stand work can be
done did noble work in the game
yesterday. In fact every Whitman man
distinguished himself by brilliant indi-
Vidual work. CardWell, called Red"
at right half was undoubtedly Pull
mans star. He played like a demon
on offene and defense. His mate.
Longstreet, was also a good ball car
rier. Pullman did not do the brilliant
individual playing that Whitman did
yesterday because by sheer weight she
was able to bear her opponents down
the field and preferred a sure game.
Yet she was forced to punt time and
time again by the plucky little band of
Missionaries. About 500 people at
tended the game. The last touchdown
was made by Pullman when less than

RICHARDSON WINS A POINT
Enough Republicans vote with DEM
ocrsts 60 Override Ruling of
the Speaker.

WASHINGTON, Feb. s.-Speaker Hender-
son, who has recovered from his recent
indisposition, presided over the deliber-
ations OF the house today.
After the reading Of the Journal Mr.
Richardson (Tenn.) took exceptions to the
presentation OF the conference report on
the Department OF Commerce bill at yes
terday's memorial, session. He contended
that the action of yesterday was void.
The speaker ruled that It was regular.
He said in his ruling that II had been re-
peatedly held that Sunday could be made
a legislative day. There had, in fact, been
no legislation at yesterdays session. By
unanimous consent the house simply per-
mitted the filing of the conference report
under the rules. The house. when in ses-
sion, at any time, was omnipotent, except
for the limitations Of the constitution.
Mr.. Richardson protested against the
ruling as a dangerous precedent and moved
10 change the journal so as to strike cut
the action Of yesterday.
Eleven republicans voted with the demo-
Gratis for this motion, but it was defeated
on rising vote, so to IS. Mr.. Richardson
demanded the ayes and nays and the roll
was called. The motion was carried 116
to 101.
Twenty-eight republicans voted with the
democrats. The net result Of this action is
to postpone the consideration of the con-
ference report on the Department of Com
merce bill until tomorrow.
Mr.. Hepburn insisted that although the
house had Just stricken from the journal
the record Of the action OF YESTERDAY the
fact nevertheless remained that the con-
ference report had been presented.
what proof has the gentleman?' in
quired the speaker. "The house bas Just
stricken all reference 10 the action from

The conference report on the bill 70 in
crease the salaries of federal Judges was
agreed to.
The house then proceeded to the consid-
Grafton of District of Columbia business.
A bill to authorize an advance of $6,000,-

feated--95 to &C.

A partial conference report on the bill
for a union station in Washington was
agreed to, after which Mr.. Morrell (Pa.
! moved that the house recede from Its
amendment to the bill which reduced the
appropriations from the Pennsylvania ant
Baltimore & Ohio railroads from $1,000, ,00'
to 81, ,00O 900, but his motion was defeated

this a play OF false economy. maintaining
that &4s, 900 was not too large. In this
connection he observed that last session
$40, 600 was nrst set apart for this purpose
and found too little, when an extra appro-
priation had to be made. After some more
discussion the house refused TO concur in
the senate's amendment by a vote Of so
to 27.
Rouse OF Hall then moved that a COM
mittee be appointed from the house to
confer with a senate committee on the bill.
