TEDDY WASN'T AT SAN JUAN.
Retired Army Officer Says Roosevelt
DID Not Lead Charge.

That President (then Colonel
Roosevelt) did not lead the main
charge up San Juan Hill as popularity
supposed; that Colonel Roosevelt was
away at Kettle Hill at the time of the
charge; that he, Grigadier General
Noble then acting major of the Tenth
infantry, was senior officer In COM
mand OF the historic, charge; that
there would be considerable disillu-
sionment among the people of the
United States IL the facts of that cam
paign were kn0wn-such are the
statements of Brigadier General C. FL.
Noble, retired commander of the
forces at Fort Seward, Alaska, made
this morning, says a Seattle dispatch.
Roosevelt did not lead that charge
any more than you did, he said to
his interviewer. "There has been a
lot Of foolish things written about
that charge, but 1t was the Tenth who
really captured San Juan. We did
not see anything of Roosevelt. He was
at little hill two miles away-Ket-
tie hill they call 1t. | was senior Of
ficer Of the Tenth at the time, and we |

ELECTRIC CARS ARRIVE.
-Four Street Cars Ready for Service
in Walla WaIla.

Four new street cars were received
by the Walla Walla Valley Traction
company yesterday, and they are be-
ing unloaded today. says the Walla
WaIla Bulletin. The cars are the lat
est type of electric cars and were
made by J. G. Brill & Co. of st. Louis.
Each car has a seating capacity of
ABOUT 40 persons. This makes five
cars which the company has received
Tor its city and interurban service
The first car was received about two
months ago and has been in constant
use handling work trains.
1t is the intention of the companv
TO begin the city service as well as the
service between College Place and
Walla Walla as soon as electrical ma
chinery reaches the city. Manager
Allen stated this afternoon that the
company would require large
of such machinery and it is
expected to reach the city inside of
six weeks, and as soon as it could be
installed it was probable that an up
to-date city and interurban service
would be inaugurated.

FRATERNITIES MUST GO.
School Board of Chicago Will Abolish
Student Societies,

The Chicago Record Herald saws of
the school fraternity evil in that city.
The school board has directed the
superintendent to enforce the existing
rule against high school fraternities
The injunction that formerly tied its
hands is no longer in force. and de-
cisions in other states give ground for
the belief that no such Injunction will
be permanently sustained by the
courts
The evils which result from these
traternities and their interference
with school discipline and school
spirit have been sufficiently estab-
lished. There remains in reality only
the question as to how severe the
measures should be which are taken
Tor their suppression.
Unfortunately there is reason to
doubt whether lenient measures or
gradual steps are worth while. Too
often the boys who belong to these
societies regard their fraternity alle-
glance as higher than their school all
Iegiance and break the pledges which
Ihey make to refrain from recruiting
new members. The firm hand is the
kindest in the end.

Connect Tracks I'm Washington,

Wal!a Walla, Dec. 1.-Complaints
in an action to be brought in the
Franklin county court by the state to
compel the o. r. & N. to make con-
nections with the Northern Pacific
railroad at Connell, in conformity
with recent order of the state rail-
way commission, have been prepared
by Assistant Attorney General Falk-
ner and will probably be filed early
next week.
The railroads were ordered to make
track connections at Walla Walla
Connell Ritzvllle and other points in
eastern Washington. but refused on
the grounds that the railway COM
mission had no authority to issue such
an order.
Connell is taken alone simply as a
test case in order that the issues NAV
not be confused. A writ of mandate
VIII be asked for. BY this proceed
ure the state avoids the railway COM
mission had no authority to issue such
its constitutionality. The power of the
state under the provision of the con-
stitution will practically be the only
question.

Princeton, Dec. IA mob rode into
t"wn this morning. fired two tobacco
stemmeries, and started a fire in an
other part of town. Loss, 100000.
The mob numbered 300. They seiz-

ignited the factories and stood guard
permitting no ore to approach until
the buildings were entirely enveloped
and help useless. One took chlrge of
the telephone office and allowed no

the result of a bitter war waged for

who sell at any price, and an associa-

The stemmeries belonged to the So
called trust-the Imperial Tobacco
company Of New York, which control

San Francisco is threatened with n

next Thursday with 5000 tons. but by

the 10000 or 1900 tons of coal due
