WARNING.

It grieved me so, to read these lines
Penned by a darling child:
"Oh! how long for home and friends,
I'll neer be reconciled
To live without you longer mere,
Kind parents, bid me come!
My mother-hear was sore oppressed
To know the absent one
Was walking in the dreary path
Where darkened seems the sun.
And though unfinished were her tasks
1 wrote, 1--WE bid you come"
The Son of God on earth once dwelt,
His Father sent Him here;
This dreary world was His abode
Through many a lonely year.
He knew a cross awaited Him,
And yet He willed to come.
Methinks Gods Father-heart was
panied,
While through the vale of tears
He who was heavens brightest sem,
Toiled on, mid SCOTS and jeers.
But Christ in full the work must do,
That we to God might come.
And now our Savior sits on high,
His home again is there,
For us His heart is filled with love;
He hears our feeblest prayer.
To all the heavy-laden ones
He says unto Me come"
My Lord, I've heard thy gentle voice,
And with my load of sin
Have gone to Thee, and found sweet
rest,
Amid earth's strife and din.
And now I'm waiting for the call:
ITO heaven, 1 bid thee come"
Anna L. Berney.

DON'T GUESS AT 1T.
If You See Something That Looks
Like Fire, Telephone.

To send in fire alarms promptly is
what Fire Chief Metz asks Of the
people of Walla walla. The alarm
sent in yesterday was investigated
and found to be a bona fide one.
The damp atmosphere caused the
smoke to hang about the Memorial
building creating so suspicious an
appearance that even the fire COM
pany when it first arrived on the
scene thought there was something
doing. Mr.. Cookery saw the smoke
from the back of his home on East
Alder street and promptly called up
the fire station.
81 am very anxious to have people
turn in an alarm if they see anything
suspicious said Chief Metz this
morning. "The company is more than
glad to respond and a few seconds
at first mean more than hours later
sometimes"
"That mas been one trouble hereto
fore in this city, people have tried to
be 100 sure before turning in an alarm.
Please tell them not to wait"

Letter From Commander al Fort

DECLARES DEPARTMENT SAVED FORT
CHIEF AND CAPTAIN DENY
There WAS ANY FRICTION
Between The CREWS.

The statement in a press dispatch
Review that the city firemen refused
to obey the orders of the officers dur
ing the fire Saturday at Fort Walla
Walla is denied by both Chief Metz
and captain George Guthridge.
There was not a word of truth
in the statement" declared Chief
Metz this morning.
1.-The firemen and the soldiers
worked together with the greatest de-
gree of harmony. Both the officers
and soldiers lent us every possible
assistance and Colonel Goodwin and
the other officers expressed their ap-
probation of the service done by the
city department"
Knows Not Source.
Captain Gutheridge said he did not
know where sucn a report could have
emanated from.
when we arrived at the fire the
soldiers asked that we give them or
ders," said Captain Gutheridge. "Af-
ter the fire was out I asked for as
sistance in getting the apparatus back
to the fire station. The soldiers
broke the hose and placed it in the
hose wagon and gave US every pos
sible assistance. They even took their
teams and hauled the steamer back
to the station"
Colonel Goodwin yesterday mailed
the following letter to Chief Metz,
expressing his appreciation Of the
work Of the fire department:

Mr.. William Metz,
Chief of Fire Department,
Walla Walla, Wash.
Sir:
and efficient service rendered by the
Walla Walla Fire Department, under
supervision of yourself and Captain
G. T. Gutheridge, in controlling the
fire which occurred at this post today.
The despatch with which aid was
given, in response to a call by tele-
phone, and the cheerful and jealous
assistance rendered at the scene Of
the fire reflects great credit on your
department and made it possible to
save from destruction other public
buildings in the vicinity.
Very respectfully,
&c. A. Goodwin"

international maritime exhibition In
Bordeaux, France. The French have
a claim on Fulton, inasmuch as he
made many Of his experiments In that
country and was encouraged in them
by the French government. 1t was in
France that Fulton, away back In the
year 1897, experimental with his boat
for submarine navigation in connection
with torpedo warfare, thus anticipat-
ing by more than century the sue
cess in that field achieved in the past
half dozen years. 1t was in France IN
1903 that he made some Of his initial
essays in the direction Of steam navt
CATION. This exhibition will illustrate
the history of maritime development
from the earliest times.
During the jamestown exposition
there is to be at Hampton Roads
great naval and marine exhibition, and
in connection with this hOnors can be
paid to Fulton most appropriately.
Aug. II will be set apart as Fulton
day, and a committee headed by Cor
nelius Vanderbilt, whose family has
been intimately identified with the de-
velopment of steam navigation, Is ar
ranging a programme for the occasion.
Mr.. Vanderbilt will probably head
marine parade with his yacht North
Star. He is president of the Robert
Fulton Monument association, ana the
treasurer, to whom subscriptions Tor
the monument fund may be sent, Is
Richard Delafield. president OF the Ma
tional Park bank, New York.
Fulton was born in Lancaster coun-
ty, Pa, in 1765 and died in New York
IN 1915. AS Mark Twain puts It: HE
made the vacant oceans and idle rivers
useful after the unprejudiced had been
wondering for hundred million years
what they were for. He found these
properties a liability; he left them an
asset. 1t Is the peculiar honor ana
privilege of our commercializing age
to estimate this majestic service at It's
splendid and rightful value. The mon
ument is deserved, and it will be BULL"

BOY TO REFORM SCHOOL.
Theodore Snyder is Sentenced b.
Judge Brents for IneorrisibiIity.

Theodore Snyder. son Of Daniel
Snyder Of Watertown, will go to the
reform school. He was tried yesterday
afternoon before Judge Brents on a
charge of incorrigibility and, although
his mother asked the court that he
be given a few months trial, the
court thought his actions had been
such that the discipline of the reform
school was necessary to save him
from ruin.
Theodore is but 10 years old and
for three years has been playing
hockey from school and enticing his
playmates to do the same thing. OF
late he has been stealing grain sacks
to sell so that the truant officer, Levi
Wilson, and county attorney, Lester
Wilson, thought it time to take him
before int court.

Year In France and at the James.
town Exposition.
vt will be a hundred years on the
18th Of next August since the
Clermont steamed up the Hudson
river from New York to ALBANY.
A movement is in progress to honor the
builder and inventor of the Clermont,
Robert Fulton, who is generally re-
garded as the father of steamboat nav.
igation. Whatever the claims of others
as to application of steam to purposes
OF navigation, it was Fulton, at any
rate, who first demonstrated the prac-
ticability of the steamboat for passen-
ger and freight transportation, and aft
er the Clermont had made her mem
orable voyage and the success Of the
venture was seen multiplication Of
steamboats, was rapid.
The services of Fulton to science,
commerce and civilization were of
such vast magnitude that it is thought
appropriate to have the nation as a
whole take part in the memorial which
it is proposed to erect in his honor.
This memorial will stand on the banks
of the Hudson, overlooking the scene
OF Fulton's great experiment. The
site will be somewhere on the upper
end Of Manhattan Island and not far
from Grants tomb, the Cathedral of
st. John the Divine, Columbia univer-
sity and other monumental and archi-
tectural features which make this part
Of New York center of interest for
sightseers. The character of the me-
mortal has not yet been fully decided
upon, but design by the sculptor
Leopold Bracony is considered to en-
body a general idea as to what the
monument should be. This provides
for base surrounded by approaches
ornamented by appropriate sculpture.
The shaft supports heroic figure of
Fulton, showing him contemplating a
model Of the Clermont. 1t is propos-
ed that the remains of Fulton shall be
placed In the monument, and the con-
sent Of the inventors grandson, R.
Fulton Ludlow of Claverack, N. Y, to
this plan has been obtained.
Fulton's achievements will be cele
brated next year both at the James

tor and writer, delighted a crowd Of
his friends at Armory hall yesterday
evening. In an energetic fashion the
speaker outlined the fundamentals Of
the socialist doctrine. He disclaimed
any opposition to organized govern

not so friendly towards the trusts.
He contended his theory was In
harmony with the teachings Of Christ,
also that socialism meant every man
shown own what he produces and no
man live off his fellowmen. AS it was

THE BROWNSVILLE AFFAIR.
Investigation Made by Inspector General
of the U. S. Army,

San Antonio, Texas, Oct. IL
After a two days stay here Briga-
der General Ernest A. Darlington,
inspector general of the United
States army, left last night for
Fort Reno. During his stay here
the inspector general was occupied
in investigating the Fort Brown
affair for which a number of negro
prisoners from the Twenty-ffth
infantry are confined in the guard
house at Fort Sam Houston. These
negroes are charged with being
implicated in the disturbances at
Brownsville which nearly precip-
itated a race war. The result of
the investigation has not yet been
disclosed, in fact the matter has
been kept rather quiet, as there
was some apprehension that too
much publicity might arouse the
people to some violent action.
General Darlington will continue
the investigation at Fort Reno.
where the negro soldiers who were
formerly stationed at Brownsville
are located. This was General
Garlington's first visit to Texas.
