NEXT WEEK THE
ATHLETES WILL COME
Second Annual Interscholastic
Will Attract Hundreds.

The big high school field meet of
last year is to be repeated here next
week on bigger scale. This athletic
contest among the high schools of the
eastern and central part of the state
and Idaho is held under the auspices
of the college, prizes and pennants be-
ing given, and the expenses being
borne by the college. Special trains
will be run from Spokane, Colfax and
Walla Walla, bringing probably 1000
visitors.
Prof. Timblin, who has been in
Lewiston and Spokane in the interest
of the meet, reports that 100 will come
from Lewiston and between 300 and
400 from Spokane. Students will make
a canvass of Pullman to secure places
for the visitors to stay, the hotel ac-
commodations being inadequate to care
for so large number.

INCREASING BEET ACREAGE.

The sugar beet industry in the vic
Unity of Fairfield and all along the new
line of the Inland Electric road is
growing rapidly. The beet acreage
has grown from few acres in 1879
to nearly 5000 now planted.
Up to last season D. C. Corbin.
owner of the big sugar factory at Wa
verify, was able to secure about %. 900
tons of beets, or about half the cana
city of the plant. The capacity of the
factory is fully $4,000 tons of beets
annually, and last fall the owner had
about decided to move the plant to
Spokane unless he could secure the de-
sired amount of beets to run the full
season. The beet raisers then began
to realize that something must be done
or the factory would 90 to Spokane.
The business men of this section also
began to realize the fact and to bestir
themselves to see that larger acre.
age was planted this season. Meet
ings were held and greater acreage
promised than ever before, and it is
now thought that not less than 1000
acres will be planted to beets this
season.
The new beet territory contiguous
to the sugar beet factory, which is be-
ing opened up by the advent of the
new electric road, will furnish it's own
impetus. Many farmers being enthus-
iastic over the higher price of Sc per
ton to be paid, will put in a large
acreage of beets who heretofore have
raised only wheat Mr.. A. D. Thay-
er, one of the largest and most success
full raisers of beets, proposes to irri-
gate tract of land this season for the
purpose of ascertaining whether such
would be a paying investment. In
case the irrigation pays, he will build
a reservoir sufficiently large to irri-
gate from forty to eighty acres. The
outcome of Mr.. Thayer's experiment
will be watched with a great deal of
interest. Up to the present time but
$5.25 per ton has been paid for sugar
beets, and the growers claim they have
made more money than in raising
wheat by SIS per acre.

NAY FESTIVAL
WAS BIG EVENT
Music Filled the Air atEPulLnan for Three
Days This Week.

One of the biggest events of the
year, and certainly the most important
from a musical standpoint, was
brought to a successful conclusion
Wednesday night. The three days
May Musical Festival delighted all
who were fortunate enough to attend
all or any of the concerts and made
Pullman the cynosure of the North
west. 1t is estimated that 600 people
came in from the towns of the Inland
Empire on Wednesdays regular and
special trains, and counting the visit
ors from Moscow and nearby towns
who attended some of the earlier at
fractions, fully 800 visitors were here
at some time during the festival.
This is the first time such festival
has been held north of San Francisco.
Spokane, Tacoma and Portland have
all attempted it, but lack of financial
backing prevented the completion of
the plans. The executive phase of
the affair has been under the direction
of Prof. Kimbrough, while the train
ing of the band, orchestra and "Mes-
siah" chorus has been done by Prof.
Strong. =
The festival began Monday evening
with a recital by the department of
music and consisted of piano, orches-
trail and vocal music by the various
organizations of the department. On
Tuesday afternoon the band gave its
annual concert, playing ten numbers
and encores in a way to sustain the
reputation the band already enjoys of
being the best amateur organization
in the state.
Tuesday evening came the great
Messiah" sung by the local chorus
of 1876 voices. The big assembly room
of the gymnasium had been filled with
chairs for the audience and high tier
of seats had been erected at the west
end for the chorus. The wonderfully
inspiring music of the choruses was
supplemented by solos sung by Mrs.
Strong, Mr.. Tor Van Pyk and Miss
Mabel Heritage of Spokane, and Mr..
Claire Monteith of Portland.
On the afternoon of May End the
visiting artists gave a very highly
iiiisned concert. Wednesday evening
'"e festival was brought to a close
WIN the grand choral concert. The
N'''i uses taking part and their direct
were as follows: Rosalia. Miss
DAISY Busbey; Cheney Normal Mis-.
m'ia H. "ylle; Spokane, DR.. R. A.
heritage; oakesdale, Mrs. F. B.
Hughes and Pullman, W. B. Strong
The director of each VISITING .boru,
was presented with an engraved baton
For the final numbers the con,h;uo,
chrouses sang, making a total of o7z
voices, led by Prof. Strong and tho
full band of so pieces.
Now that the initial step has been
taken by the college and the affair
proven feasible, other towns are anx-
ious to have the event, and DIR. Her.
itage publicly expressed the hope that
the next festival might be held at
Spokane.

Will Hogan and family left Pull
man few weeks ago to locate in
California, and had just become locat-
ed at Brawley when the earthquake
shook things up so generally down
there. About as soon as the ground
had quoted down enough to walk on,
the Hogans started To- the depot, and
reached Pullman this week, and are
now busy telling their friends how it
happened. The Palouse country, with
its unsuitable foundation, looks like
home to them again.

the visitors, but in that inning the
local team brought one man in, MAX
ing it six all. One more man was

Nashville, Tenn, Sept. 24.-After
one of the most memorable legal bat
ties known in the state a decision in
the famous Cumberland Presbyterian
injunction suit was handed down at
Fayetteville, Tenn, by Chancellor

Judge Bardon sustained that part of
the injunction which restrained the
bringing of more than one suit in the
state to settle questions between the
loyalists and unionists. The two or
CARNATIONS are allowed to retain their
names and organizations. The union
lists and loyalists are to use the COM

lowed to continue the publication and
sale of church rituals.
