 It was decided also today that Mrs. Harry K. Thaw will be the chief wit ness of the defense in it's efforts to prove that Thaw was insane when he killed White. It was over the question whether plea of insanity should be made that Thaw and his former counsel disagreed. resulting in his dismissal of the lawyers.
 The plea insisted on by Thaw's for mer counsel included the admission that he is now insane and if accepted by the court and jury would have caused his confinement in an insane asylum. The plea now decided upon makes no such admission.

The city Of North Yakima will pay
out this year in salaries to its officials
the sum of $4,000. Next year IT will
cost the city S2O,2Os for the salaries
OF its officials, and seven members Of
the city council and the mayor are not
on the payroll.
The position of city clerk has be-
come one which requires the entire
time of the official, and owing to the
arduous duties connected with 1t,
the present city council saw fit to
raise the salary from s75 to s125 per
month
The salary OF the police Judge, the
city treasurer and the health officer
were raised until they are now very
suitable positions and in keeping with
the growth of the city and It's fast ac-
