A remarkable instance Of verbal deg.
radiation Is the word ''slave." Its orig.
inal, the Russian ''slava," meant glorj-
Gus, being etymologically akin to the
English word 'glory," and was proud
ly taken as their name by the Slavonic
people. But when the Germans re.
duced hosts Of the Slavs to servitude
their name, from malice or accident,
as Gibbon says, became synonymous
with "servile." 1t retains no more sug.
gestion of its racial origin now than
does 'Ogre." which Is really Hun
garian," from a confusion of the Mag
vars with the Huns. and Of both with
the terrible Tartars.

Manu- Banks Said To Have Been
viCtimized
DETECTIVES ARE PUT IN FIELD
HEADQUARTERS OF "PAPER MEN"
SAID TO BE LOCATED IN
BRITISH COLUMBIA.

Expert forgers have been causing the
banks of the entire northwest no end
of trouble during the past few months.
and a score of private detectives are
said to have been working assiduously
for more than a month past in an eff
fort to apprehend the offenders.
Though the matter has been kept
extremely quiet, the banks of different
cities in the northwest are alleged to
have suffered considerably, and it is
believed that a gang of smooth paper
men," as they are called in police par
lance, is working the northwestern
section of the United States and a sec
ton of Canada The ring is rumored
to have headquarters in one Of the
provinces across the British line, but
efforts to locate the guilty parties have
thus far proved Intellectual.
The favorite method of the gang is
to send a draft to a bank, with in
structions to deposit it to the credit
of some fictitious persons account,
states one report. The draft is usual
ly for several hundred dollars. In the
accompanying letter the sender asks
that check for a smaller amount be
sent to a member of the gang in an
other city, The ruse has worked in
several cities of the northwest, the
banks learning upon investigation that
the drafts sent them were worthless.
Not long ago a stranger called at
iewelry store in Butte, Mont, to have
a silver watch repaired. He paid for
the work in advance, cashing $40
check. The check was found to be
worthless. Several days later the
man returned to get his watch and
was informed that his check had been
dishOnOred at the bank
Processing great indignation, the
stranger exclaimed: LET me have that
check; I'll see whether they'll cash it
or not"
Grasping the check, he disappeared
through the doorway, vowing to teach
the bank cashier lesson. Instead of
going to the bank he dropped in
store close by and asked the proprie-
tor to cash the check. Seeing the in
dorsement of the jewelry house upon
the back of the paper, the merchant
gave the stranger the money without
hesitation.
The swindler had carefully figured
that before sending his bogus check
to the bank, the jeweler would indOrse
it with a regulation rubber stamp
This caused the downfall of the mer-
chant. BY the deal the fellow secured
$3.50. cashing the bogus check twice,
and losing only a silver watch that
cost about s..

The question of Spencer's custody
pending a decision in his case, result
ed in Judge Brents remanding him to

CITY NEWS IN BRIEF.

For using abusive language to Sam
uel Mcbride, Jack Munroe was as
sessed s25 by Judge Huffman in the
police court last evening. Munroe was
arrested on a diSOrderly conduct
charge and spent most of yesterday in
the city Jail.
Rev. w. E. Thompson, pastor of the
First Methodist church, left this morn
ing for POmerOy to attend the annual
ministerial district convention which
will be held in Pomeroy tomorrow and
Thursday.
The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1906-05-29
Motions Overruled.

The motion of the defense to strike
these paragraphs from the states
answer was made on the grounds that
the facts alleged could not be heard
in habeas corpus proceeding and that
the trial court did not have jurisdic-
ton unless the case was brought up
in some other form. Spencer's at
torneys made vigorous fight to win
their point and cited numerous au-
thorities but Judge Brents denied the
motions and ruled that as the state
had alleged Spencer had violated the
term of his pardon the burden Of proof
rested with the state.
Trial Next Week.
Assistant Attorney General Mac
Donald asked for a week in which to
prepare his evidence before going to
trial, which was granted. In present.
ing it's side of the case it is said the
state will trace from the time Spencer
left the penitentiary to the present,
his movements which will tend to
show that for months he has not been
dependent on his relatives for support
and that in other ways he violated the
terms of his pardon. Just what these
allegations will be the assistant at
torney general said he was not pre-
pared to say.
Spencer's attorneys this morning
formally demanded that all the cor
respondence between the governor and
any one connected with Spencer's re-
lease be filed in court Attorney General
Macdonald stated that for the pres
ent at least he would be compelled to
resist the demand. The defense, it is
said. expects to show by the CORE
spondence just what representations
were made to the governor relative to
the condition of Spencer's health at
the time he was pardoned and who
made them.

MCGr egor's Landing
Hit By The Storm

Walluku, Maui, March 9.-work on
the new $4,000. landing at McGregor's
Is progressing rapidly. During the
high Kona winds last Wednesday and
Thursday, lasting forty.eight hours,
two of the new stout concrete piers
were bent and some slight damage
done to the heavy timber work. The
contractors had figured on completing
the work on the landing In three
weeks time, but the damage done by
the storm this week will delay the
completion one week. When the
foundations were being laid several
months ago. a heavy Southwestern came
up which gave the contractors an idea
how rough McGregor's landing can be
and that II is not as smooth as a mill
pond, as has been told them by those
Interested In having the landing put
up at McGregors instead OF Maalaea.
Immense concrete piers were erect.
cd for 200 feet from the shore, the
deepest places being In about fourteen
feet of water. The landing is sixteen
feet wide and 10 feet high with an a.
30xi0 feet at the outer edge. Ten feet
elevation was supposed to make the
landing safe in all sorts OF weather. but
last Wednesday, the seas came in al.
most mountain high and washed over
the new landing.
Old Maalaea landing. with one.half
under water, is stlll standing. Last
Wednesdays storm did not reach
there. McGregor's landing was sup
posed to be safe in all sorts OF weather
because II Is sheltered.

HKS Will HAVE
MANY NEW THINGS
ON THURSDAY MIGHT

The members and others who are in
terested in the Elks Ministries were
seen hustling about town today get.
ting together a bunch OF new stun for
the coming third performance on
Thursday night. An effort is being
made to give the people something new
on this. the last night, of the Elks per-
Torrance, and while II would be i'm.
possible to improve on the opening and
closing acts of this show in the mind
OF the press agent, 1t would be not
amiss to give the public some new
verses and gags in the end mems work.
Mr.. Al. II. Moore, who made such hit
in Mr.. Lawson from Boston local
izedD has already three new verses to
pass out gently to his listeners. and
say, they're great. His last were fine.
but this new lot are certainly not in
the same class. but laughable enough
10 make you split your sides.
Doyle and Livingston are also in lire
with new assortment OF good stun aud
new customers will get barrel Of fun
out Of them for small money.
The finale, which made such a hit
with the patrons, is well worth the
price OF admission alone. being one of
the cleverest pieces OF stage work ever
exhibited in Honolulu, and is bound to
live in the memories Of those who saw
II for many day. Hugo Herzer's Elk
toast adds luster to such scene, and
the manner in which he disposes 1t to
his audience is certainly beautiful. His
stage presence is always graceful. and
his action even more so. and with the
little strain OF Aud Lang Syne" that
Prof. Berger runs through the arti.
fetal effects to his song. 1t certainly
makes II wonderful and fascinating
scene. never to be forgotten.
A most encouraging sale OF seats

They are certainly deserving OF II, for

sionaly company look to its laurels.
