A NATURAL
CURIOSITY
One of HunboIdt's Physical At
fractions, little Known to
Tourist and Scientist

Seven miles east of Ernest Duviv-
iers house in the Eden valley country
is an interesting locality, known as
Cave canyon.
A large cavern exists there in lime
stone formation. 1t has been visited
by very few people and never thor
oughly explored.
The cavern consistsof a number of
large chambers connected by narrow
corridors.
AS the result of the dripping of
calcareous water for centuries, long
stalactites are pendant from the roof
of the cave and stalagmites reach up
to meet them.
The cave pitches downward at an
angle of forty-five degrees. AS proof
that it extends to a much greater
depth than it has been explored, there
is a constant and strong current of
cold air coming upward.

FROM NEVADA
METROPOLIS
Correspondence From Reno Tell
ing About Prosperity, Sud-
den Death And Other
Things

Reno continues to be a busy, bustl
ing burg, the metropolis of Nevada,
a coming Denver, prosperous, rap
idly growing city. It's inhabitants
are aware of these facts and don't
hesitate to so inform the stranger
within the gates.
Yesterday your correspondent met
Coroner Updike hurrying out to the
Western Addition, or some other old
part of town to look after a case. :"
A few minutes later Mr.. Coroner's ser
vices were required at the east end
of town.
The writer chased up the latter
case and found in a suburban sa-
loon, owned by Pat Reddy man ly-
ing in the rear room cold in death,
blood and brains on the wall and
pistol in his right hand.
The suicides name was Jack Hast
ings. Why and when he committed
the deed are not known.
Between the heart of the town and
the saloon where the tragedy occur
red is a newly created hive of indus
try. Among the industries in a dis
tance of two blocks. all of which have
been built or rebuilt within the past
two years, are the following:
Reno Artificial Ice factory, Flani-
gan Warehouse. Truckee River Gen
eral Electric company sub-station,
Cold Storage works, Nevada Meat
company, Nevada-California Oregon
carshops, Nevada Engineering works,
Reno Pressed Brick company, Reno
Mill company planning mill, Western
Ore Purchasing company, Nevada
Planning Mills, Reno Brewery, etc.
These works employ hundreds of
men at splendid wages. When the
whistles blow there is a long line of
men passing too and from work, din
ner pail in hand, bank book in pocket.
Some of these establishments are
barely completed and others are in
course of construction. The Nevada
Engineering works is not half finished.
Forty-one machinists are already at
work. Smoke pours from the stacks
and the sound of steel changing on
steel is heard.
The new brewery is just beginning
to install its machinery.

State and all due to carelesness. stu
pidity and neglect. The road making
material here is superb, but the man

THE SCHOOL ELECTION DECEM
Der 9Th.

Today was the last opportunity but
one for registration for the school cleo
ton on Saturday, December 5th. On
Friday, the 4th, the books at the school
clerks office in the city library will be
opened again for the accommodation
of any women who wish to vote and
for any men who have failed to regis
ter at the city clerks office this year.
At present there are no signs of a con-
test at the school election. But there
is no telling what a day may bring
forth. AS three members, a majority
of the board, are to be chosen for
three-year terms, the election is of
great Importance.
superintendent Burke this morning
declared that he would not accept an
other term and this removes any cause
for controversy on that question. The
only issue of Importance before the
people is the demand on the part of
taxpayers that the board make the an
nual financial statements required by
law. A detailed statement of receipts
to be printed for the information of
the taxpayers of the district This
mandate Of the law has been disre-
garded in the past and the people have
been kept in ignorance of the expen-
ditures made by the board.
Last year the board handled nearly
$4,000 and this year, including the
cost of the high school building, prob
ably $4,000 will be disbursed. It is
certainly of the highest Importance to
the taxpayers to know just how and
for what this money is paid out, and
that is the purpose of the annual
statement required by law.
If the present members of the board
will agree to make this annual state
ment in the future, they will have a
good prospect for reelection Other
wise it would not be surprising if 9TH
er candidates ready to make this
pledge he brought out within the next
ten days.

DO THEY PROTEST TOO MUCH?

Mayor Hunt says he is not candi-
date for governor, but you can't most
always sometimes tell what a politician
means by what he says. Mark Hanna
has been saying for year or two that
he was not a candidate for the repub-
lcan presidential nomination and
would not accept it under any circum-
stances, but within the last few days
it has been given out that Hanna is a
candidate and that he and Governor
elect Herrick of Ohio have been in
conference with Governor Odell of New
York and with Boss Platt regarding
the formation of a combina ton to de-
feat the nomination of Roosevelt.
There is little doubt that Hanna would
announce his candidacy if he felt sure
of controlling the convention. 1t is
not unlikely that Mayor Hunt feels the
same way about the gOvernOrShip of
this state. He knows that it would
not be easy for Walla Walla to get
the office in addition to having a Unit
ed States senator, but if the nominal
ton came his way he would not bid
the tempters to get behind him unless
it was for the purpose of whooping it
up for his election.

MARK HANNA'S BOOM.

Reports from the southern states
bring the information that circulars
and newspaper clippings advocating
the nomination of Mark Hanna for
president by the republican national
convention next year are being scat
tered throughout that section by lit
erary bureau having its headquarters
in Cleveland and Cincinnati. 1t is
naively stated in these circulars that
while Senator Hanna has positively
refused to become a candidate, that no
man has ever yet declined such an
honor and that Hanna is too loyal to
his party to refuse to obey it's COM
mands. There is little reason to doubt
that Hanna is cognizant of the work
of this literary bureau, if indeed it's
operations are not under his personal
direction. The war begun by Senator
Hanna against the confirmati ton Of the
presidents closest friend, Leonard
Wood, to be major general, was his

that the sailors who won the sea
fights of the Spanish American war
were deserters from the British navy.

then it was deserving British gunners

Now this national defamer has the
effrontery and the villainy to write:
Nobody who does not know the
depths of degradation which are In
painful evidence in the public life OF
the national capital can comprehend
the pressure which is put upon the
heads of departments by public men
of bad character to find places for

only claim for Office is that they have
done dirty work Of one kind or anoth-
er for their senators, congressman or

tenn. speaking OF the sort OF people

Superintendent Walters, @

Superintendent Walters, of the
Seattle streets and sewers, who
was in this city yesterday, stat
ed that Seattle has only one ma
cadamized street, Madison, and that is
the muddiest thoroughfare in the city
owing to the great amount of mud
brought on the wheels of vehicles from
the country. Asphalt and cement
while more costly, give much better
satisfaction, as the streets covered with
them can be easily swept or washed
Mr.. Young was pleased with the ap-
pearance of everything he saw in
Walla Walla except the streets. 1t is
probably a fact that no town in the
country can show poorer results in
street Improvement for the amount OF
money expended than Walla Walla.

For some time Hanna has declined TO
give the president a definite answer
as to whether or not he would again
serve as chairman Of the republican
national committee Hanna will prob
ably not serve, but he would like 10
run for president and in that case he
