SPECIALIZING ON CUP RACE

The English yachting papers are very
much interested in the plans OF Sir Thomas
Upton for another race for the America S
Cup and offer lots OF advice. not only to Sir
Thomas, but to the New York Yacht Club.
The Field. commenting on the prospects, for

as he had entered a grove OF mesquite trees

his way through the brush, and the rocks
that came rolling down the side OF the ridge.
Soon he emerged from the thicket and stood
toward US. While doing so he turned side
ways and thus offered plain, dark sill,

him. Chsrouleau's Winchester spoke.

him standing for a moment upon his hind
legs. But for moment only. Presently
he fell over on his side and rolled down
the steep declivity until stopped by the
trunk Of juniper tree, where we found him
dead. The distance traversed by Charo-
leaus bullet was not less than $50 yards
The bear was a fine male specimen OF his

My bullet had struck him in the thickest
part Of the right bullock, hence had failed
to disable him.
During the following day we rested from

slept upon cots In front OF the house, under

A rider approached and halted In front OF

Council Meeting.

The city council met in regular
session Thursday evening, with all
members present except Council
men Harvey and Finley. The SEES
sion was short one, not much bus
mess coming before it.
The Priest ordinance, prohibiting
the selling or giving away of intox-
icating liquors from twelve o'clock
Saturday night to twelve o'clock
Sunday night was taken up as the
special order, and passed. This
ordinance is aimed at the drug
stores, as it has been claimed that
some of the druggists were dis
pensing liquors on Sunday, and the
new ordinance makes it unlawful
for a drug store to sell intoxicants
on Sunday, except on physician s
prescription. On motion of Coun-
Gilman Priest, that portion of the
minutes of the previous meeting
dealing with the rejection of bids
for city printing was ''expunged, y
but little later, on motion of the
same councilman, that portion of
the minutes supposed to have been
"expunged" were reconsidered, and
Notwithstanding that new bids had
been asked and were lying on the
clerks desk, the rejected bids were
trotted out again, and the bid of the
Tribune, written SO that no one
knew exactly what it meant, was
accepted.
A petition for the changing of an
alley in the east part Of town was
referred to the street committee and
the vacation petition which has been
before the council for some time was
granted. A number of bills, to-
gether with the officers salaries for
the past month, were allowed, and
the reports of the various officers
were read and referred.

Eighty Acres For Each Indian.

Under the terms of Congressman
Jones bill providing for the open
ing of the south halt of the Colville
reservation each Indian will receive
an So-acre allotment and the re-
mainder of the land will be thrown
open for homestead settlement with
cash payments by settlers in accord
ance with a schedule made with
view of quick development of the
country, says the Union. Congress-
man Jones has received a favorable
report on his bill and hopes that it
will become law. AS it was first
drawn, it met with objections, so
the man from Yakima redrafted his
bill in way that met with the APP
prevail of the committee and at the
same time originated new method
of opening Indian lands to white
settlers.
In pointing out the advantages of
throwing open the Colville reserva-
ton the committee says:
The south hall of this reserva-
ton is the principal body of land in
the state not now settled upon, and
which is suitable for demonstrating
In addition to the large area of ag-
ricultural, grazing and timber lands
lying in the north and south halves
Of this reservation, mineral discov-
cries of great richness, extent and
variety have been made, and a vast
mineral region lies to the i'm mediate
westward OF this reservation, which
only can be reached for transporta-
ton purposes by the construction of
railroads across it. Such construc-
ton, however, cannot be afforded
unless the traffic resources along the
route across the reservation can be
be developed. This can take place
only by opening the lands to white
settlement and ownership. To
keep these lands closed to settle
ment is to retard the growth and
development OF the state.

But One Convention.

The republican state convention
has been called to meet at Tacoma
on May II. The state committee,
by vote of 10 to rs, decided to
hold but one convention, at which
state officers will be nominated and
delegates to the national convention
chosen. There was a spirited de-
bate over the number of conven-
tons, but the alignment had been
too strongly made to be influenced
by discussion.
The apportionment of delegates
was fixed on basis of two at large
for each county and one for every
100 votes, or major fraction thereof,
cast for Supreme Judge Hadley III
1902. This will give the conven-
ton 654 delegates. The effort to
have the apportionment based upon
Cushman vote failed. All coun-
ties except Asotin were represented
at the committee meeting. Whitman
county is entitled to "a delegates
under this apportionment.

At the conclusion of supper,

that he had been given the priv
