Deep Creek" Jones has now
temporarily charge of the Reform
Sch DOL at Chehalis, where political
convictions give force to the belief
that he is the right man to inculcate
measures for individual, as well as
municipal reform. His incumbency
is only till the Executive may find
some other of his official family who
he may consider worthy of advance
ment to the position of Superin-
tendent of the school. 1t is pretty
tough to the patient outside eX-
pectants who have been so long in
line, but then they have the cOnSOla-
ton that this peculiar personal
idiOsyncrasy cannot last much longer
St. Martins Coll ge, which opened
on the 9th inst, with an enrolment
apprOximating an even hundred, will
probably far exceed that point before
the year is more than fairly entered
upon. The present number is more
than twenty per cent. increase over
last year. Two additional instruc-
tors have been employed in the Com
mercial Department, the grounds and
buildings have been Overhauled and
two new pianos purchased for the
institution. The thorough compe-
tency Of the faculty has assured the
success of this college from the start,
and the growing confidence in that
fact is being manifested by its con-
slant and permanent growth.
The Washington Rifemen have
Jared exceedingly well at the Nation
al meet at Perry, Ohio, where 1900
picked riflemen contested for SUI
premacy, in competition with forty

gett, inspector of rife practice of the
Washington National Guard, also
brought home a handsomely en-
graved cup for the champion skirm-
ish shoot, won by his team, known
as the Dupont cup. The Presidents
individual champion cup was won by
w. A. Bergcman, of North Yakima,
against some Of the veteran prize
winners in international rifle prac-
tice. There were more than a thou
sand rifles pitted against him in the
late match.
May Case, living near this city, and
Florence TrOOpe, of Puyallup, who
were arrested in Tacoma, Monday,
for robbing the rooms of the guests
at the Bonneville hotel, developed
the fact that the two girls had de-
liberately started out on q life of
protligacy. After short time spent
in Olympia they moved on to To-
coma, where they appropriated near
ly every article of value that came
to sight A search of their trunks
showed many arcicles approximat-
ing in the aggregate about $500 in
value. The entire verdancy Of the
culprits was shown in the fact that
after their arraignment, they expect
ed that restoration of the goods
would secure their liberation without
any further trial or punishment.
