Pullman College Notes.

The concert given by the State Col.
lsge Military band last Friday night
was one Of the best things in the line
of music ever heard in Pullman. The
band Of IS pieces has been under the
instruction OF Professor Strong for
three years and has reached a high
degree Of efficiency. The program
was composed Of the choicest selec.
tions from masters like Bach, Verdi,
Batiste and Creatsre, and was render.
ed in faultless way.
Henry Meyer. one of our town boys,
plays second cornet in this band.
The entertainment OF the evening
was further heightened by the Ladies'
Cleo club, with some OF it's most
charming songs. The club is com.
posed Of twelve college girls, carefully
trained by Mrs. Kuria Strong. They
took the house by storm and were re.
psatedly encored.
Misses Kathleen Hallin and Mino!a
Hsuschild, two Ritzville girls, are two
Of the club.
The class in practical mining and
geology is preparing to leave for the
Occur d'Alenes Immediately after

Of this semester will consist OF mine
surveying and the study of the con-
centration Of silver-le lead ores as prac-
ticed in tho camp. A mine near Muir
ray has been secured that offers OK.
csptionsl advantages. Seven mem.
bers are enrolled for this course and
thus class large enough for effective,
enthusiastic work is assured, Pro-
fessor r. P. Jarvis, the head of the
mining department, hae direct super
vision and the mining students are
looking forward with anticipations OF
pleasure and profit to this summers
work.
The cadet battalion, 800 strong, &C.
companied by the State College Mill
tary band Of IS pieces, left Wednesday
on . special train to Portland. The

Ten Hour Law Knocked Out.

The New York legislature passed a
law prohibiting baker from working
more than ten hours day, or sixty
hours q week. A baker in the city OF
Utica, who had worked more than ten
hours day was arrested and fined
80. He appealed to the highest
court Of the state, and the law was
sustained by four to three decision,
the opinion being written by Judge
Parker. The baker carried the case
to the supreme court Of the United
States, which has just decided, by five
to four, that the New York law is un.
constitutional and void. In deliver.
ing the opinion Of the court Justice
Peckham said:
"The employs may desire to earn
the extra money which would arise
from his working more than the pre-
scribed time, but this statute forbids
the employer from permitting the en-
ploye to earn it. 1t necessarily inter-
feses with the right OF contract be.
tween the employer and the employed
concerning the number OF hours in
which the latter may labor in the
bakery OF the employer. The gen.
ersl right to make contract in rela-
ton to his business is part OF the lib
erty Of the individual protected by
the l4th amendment to the federal
constitution. Under that provision
no state can deprive any person Of
life, liberty or property without due
process Of law. The right to purchase
or to sell the labor 10 part OF the lib.
srty protected BY this amendment un-
less there are circumstances which OK.
cluds the right"
That seems like good law and sound
common sense. The decision will,
doubtless. bring down upon the court
the dsnuncistions Of the rsbid labor
union men, who claim the right to
regulate ell things on earth.

Burglars superstitions.

Habitual criminals are very super-
stitious No pickpocket would dream
.of working" unless he had in his
pocket or somewhere about his per-
son either a small piece of coal chalk
or lucky stone" as a talisman against
misfortune, according TO an English
writer. Even If the amulet fails them
and they are captured with it I'm their
possession they account for the fact
by remembering that they have dis
regarded some other warning that was
given them earlier I'm the day. For in
stance, should a thief be riding on tor
of an omnibus and the horse slip. he
regards it as a warning that he must
do no work that day. All habitual
criminals regard the Bible with awe
To "A man almost they will lie without
motive but when I'm the witness box
they will do anything to evade kissing
the book. a common mode of getting
out of the difficulty is to kiss the
thumb that is helping to hold the Bible
instead Of the actual book.
Should a pickpocket steal a purse
containing foreign money he regards
II as certain that before the year is oui
he will have Travelled I'm strange lands
To find gold in purse stolen at a we'd
ding is a sure sign Of good luck. while
it is equally bad to work at funeral
BY every class of criminals funerals are
regarded as tokens Of ill-luck TO meet
one while on the way to a house where
n burglary is TO be carried out means
that death or imprisonment awaits the
attempt. There is an old man named
Cowper, now I'm an English prison
serving his twenty eighth term Of inn
prisonment who is perfect ency-
clopaedia on criminals superstitions
He firmly believes that he can never
be sentenced again after his present
term has expired, because twenty-eighi
has always been lucky number with
him.
If "a burglar meets a sleeping dog hC
regards it as sure sign that he will be
lucky for a long time. To see n flal
flying over a private house is taken as
an invitation ito crack the crib" Wo-
men who squint are immune from the
lattentions Of the criminal classes. Nc
burglar would break into house if he
knew that maid servant who squintei
was kept there. Similarly a pickpockei
would have nothing to do with the
possessions OF a woman with a cas-
IN her eye. A man in the habit of pass
ing counterfeit coin will never attemp
to get rid Of any to a woman whC
squints.

GRATITUDE.

THE news that Senator Alice has
Il given bond for a considerable
amount in order to assist John Ed
ward Addicks in Strengthening out his
affairs has occasioned considerable
comment
Ordinarily this would be regarded as
a private business affair, not calling
for newspaper comment but since
these men have assumed peculiar rela-
tions TO the public and to each other.
some comment may be pardoned.
In the first place, then, we remark
the utter devotion Of Senator Alice to
Addicks is devotion which under
certain circumstances we should have
to regard as most praiseworthy. But
when we contemplate the system OF
politics Addicks introduced and has
fostered, making Senator Alice as his
lieutenant responsible for many Of the
details Of that system, we doubt
whether the latter owes him any
thing.
But whatever he owes him personally
or financially. he has greater debt
to his state and his party. It was
never written in the book Of the fates
that Addlcks should represent Dela-
ware in the United States Senate. 1t
would be a blow to our honor and pres-
tige for half a century for such thing
to occur. And it has become plain that
that is no longer occasion for uneasi-
ness
Therefore. while Senator Alice may
remember with gratitude certain po-
litical favors at the hands Of Addicks,
he should also remember that he was
sent to the Senate by Republican votes,
and that he can show his gratitude
best by helping 10 build up and
strengthen that party that it may be
prepared for It's future battles
The movement in the direction OF
better things is gaining momentum
land It win sweep an before It. with the
help OF Senator Alice or without it,

CAUGHT AT RANDOM

1t is folly to tell the father of twins
that two heads are better than one.
Most men would die in despair today
IL It weren't for tomorrow's expecta-
tlons.
Nine times out of ten a man manages
to live happily even after woman has
refused to wed him.
If a man Is obliging and tells his wife
everything, she should be generous
enough to believe It.
When a wise man gets angry he opens
his eyes and shuts his mouth, but a
fool shuts his eyes and opens his mouth,
Hoch is angry when the authorities
find wifo that never did have a claim
on him. Any ono who has had 70 wife
does not realize how sensitive the man
is who has had forty-eight when the
detectives insist that the number is
forty-nine

Platt may have a laudable ambition,

ton TO sympathize with Comerford.
