GOPHFRS CHALLENGE
THE COLUMBIA FIVE
Minnesota Basketball Team
Would Play for National
Championship.
Snecial to The Globe.

Special to The Globe.
NEW YORK, March 2.-Harry A.
Fisher, the manager of the Columbia
basketball team, has received a letter
from the manager of the Minnesota
university, challenging the blue and
white players to a series of games for
the national intercollegiate champion
ship. The letter says:
Minnesota has already won the
championship of the Western Confer
ence Intercollegiate association, and
we have seen that your team. with a
record thus far clear, can hardly be
beaten for the Eastern intercollegiate
championship, therefore we would like
to meet Columbia team in a series of
three games that could justly be con-
sidered as having bearing on the
question Of the national supremacy
among colleges. We would like to
play these games in Minneapolis and
would guarantee all expenses of your
squad for the trip"
Action on the letter has not yet been
taken, but Mr.. Fisher is in favor of
acceptance.

CENTRAL HIGHFOOTBALL
PLAYERS ARE WARNED
Capt. Clark Reminds Candidates That
They Must Be Up In Studies.

Capt. Clark, of the Central High School
football team, read the riot act to pros
pective members of next years team yes
terday. In this instance the riot act was
represented by the new regulations of the
school board, which require that stu
dent must pass a majority of his studies
not only during the time that he is playing
on the team, but during the previous
semester. About thirty boys attended the
meeting. so there will be no dearth of
good material for the coming season.
Eight of the eleven members OF last year s
team will return next year, so there will
be no danger that Central will be repre-
scented by team as green as that of last
fall, only two members of which had ever
PLAYED ON a high school team before.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March q
Secretary Hay and Senior Quesada, the
Cuban minister, today signed a new
treaty confirming Cuba in the title to
the Isle of Pines. To guard against a
lapse in the senate, as was the case
with previous convention, the treaty
signed today will be purposely framed
by the state department without the
designation of any special period of
time within which notifications must
be exchanged. The new treaty will be
sent Immediately to the senate. 1t
must also go to Havana to be acted
upon by the Cuban senate.

Ski Tournament Called off.

On account of the continued unfavorable
weather and snow conditions it has been
decided not to hold any skiing tourna
ment this year. The committee is sorry
to be compelled to take this step, but
even if snow and cold weather should
come later in the week, the damage al
ready done by the thaw can hardly be
repaired. The work of the committee
has, however, not been in vain; the proofs
of enthusiasm for the sport which 1t has
received have been very encouraging, and
there is no doubt but that arrangements
will be made to organize early next sea-
son.

was done by Mr. Quackenbush who, with
out filing a schedule, places his assets
and liabilities at $4,000.
This Institution started business in 1872
and weathered the storm of 1893 when
the other bank failed here. The probable
cause of the failure was the steady with
drawal of deposits from the bank since
the failure of the Farmers and Mer-
chants bank here in October, 1903. The
county has about $4,000 on deposit in this
bank and the city about $4,000. Both are
amply secured.

In attempting to give some OF the local
history Of Weiser, we have found some
difficulty in deciding what would best be
set forth.
We have dwelt more largely on locals
OF an early date, than those of alater, as
recent events are more familiar TO all.

would ak your kindly consideration, Re.
memberinR that facts cleaned from mem
ory might occasionally be slightly de-
faced; however, we have endeavored tc
give only the truths.
Perhaps we should have begun at the
time when Weiser begun to upbuild as q
town. Yet 1t may not be amiss to refer
back, forty years ago, in 1854, when the
hrst house was brought here from Idaho
City, by Hon. T. G Galloway. 1t wa,

OF the travelling public, to which it wa,
known as the "Old Dead Fall"
At later date s, M. Jeffreys and fam.

but the early mining excitement of tn,

became less frequented. hence the house
was vacated, remaining so for severa
years.
