SITTING OUT
EMPLOYEES

James Bruce, master mechanic of the
Pacific division of the Northern Pacific.
left for Vancouver yesterday afternoon
to examine enginemen and machinists on
the recently acquired lines of the Wash
ington & Oregon and the Portland, Van
-euiuver and Yakima lines and decide upon
their fitness for continuing in the places
they now occupy. Some two months ago
the two lines mentioned were consolidated
under the title of the Washington Rail
way 4 Navigation company and the branch
lines were placed under the control of the
Pacific division officials of the Northern
Pacific. On Monday of this week the
Northern Pacific scale of wages went into
effect on the recently acquired lines. I'm
der this scale there will be a material
increase in the payroll.
Machinists and engineers will earn from
SIS to $40 more per month than they have
been getting Other employees will also
have their wages increased. In speaking
of the matter a railroad man said to a
Times reporter:
1T means that there will be many
changes on tho lines of the O. r. & N.
company. The men who can not pass
satisfactory examinations under Northern
Pacific rules must step down and out The
increased wages now in effect means that
we must have the best of sdrvice.

DRURY INSISTS ON
BRICK BUILDINGS

The board of education met yesterday
afternoon. Director Charles Drury again
urged the board to construct building
to be operated in connection with the
Logan school, rather than to build frame
additions to the two frame buildings, the
Lincoln and the Longfellow. Mr.. Drury
in hi, letter to the board, states that the
Longfellow and Lincoln are poorly CON
structed buildings with dark halls. Fur
Their than that, he stated that the Lin.
coin district is decreasing in population.
Against these objections he presented a
petition for brick annex to the Logan,
giving as his reasons that the Logan dis
tTict was building up twenty to one faster
than the Lincoln or Longfellow
The plan for the brick addition which
he submitted, together with a heating
plant, would cost about $4,000.
A committee from the Elks lodge of the
city headed by Eminent Commander c. O..
Bates, appeared at the meeting of the
board with the request that February %

ing the act of the last legislature decree
ing that it is not legal holiday The
board felt that they could not afford to
declare holiday, as they would lose
about 5000, as the apportionment of the
school fund is made in accordance with
the number of days attendance during
the school year. 1t was finally agreed,
however that if Seattle and Spokane
would declare February % holiday Ia
coma would do likewise.

The love affair of Ii Joe Sang. a you.,a
Chinese resident of Port Townsen |, has
ended rather disastrously for him Ii was
generally known as All Key AMI gained
admission to this country on the pietense,
of getting an education. This he did but
at the same time he became quite expert
as COOK and commanded his own terms
Finally he was secured as cook by the
bachelor officers at Fort Worden.
Realizing that his better half was yet
missing, he resolved to make up the de-
ficiency by paying court to the daughter
of Soon, manager for Tee Tai & Co. Soon,
however, did not take kindly to his pros
pective son-in-law and the suitor was re-
pulsei. Before the difficulty was ended
All Key was set upon by his eountryman,
who came near making him a fit subject
for the undertaken. When All Key recov-
cred from the severe drubbing he threat
ened the lives of all concerned
Then it was that Keys real trouble be-
gan. II was recalled that he came to this
country to enter the educationai7 a---~rr-.-
and not as kitchen mechanic. The inn
migration authorities took the matter up
and now the ambitious student of Ian
guages, the bachelors chief cook, and the
sutton of Soon's almond-eyed daughter
will gee free transportation back to the
Flowery Kingdom.
