SCHOOL SITE ON
CAPITOL Hill
BOARD DEFINITELY DECIDES
Six Offers Considered-Other Mat.
tiers Of Interest at Meeting
Of the Board.

AS predicted, the school board Sc.
lected block 313 on Capitol Hill as
the site for the new high school
building. This was done at the meet.
ing of the school board held Monday
evening.
Six different sites were offered
four of them were outside of the city
limits and consequently were no,
considered. The fifth is situated in
the hollow below Capitol Hill and
was considered to be unsightly. The
cost of the site which has been de-
cided upon will be $13,500. Nichol:
voted mo" on the proposition, stat
ing that in his mind the site Is the
best, everything being taken under
consideration, but he thought lie
gally an expression from the people
should be secured.
The vote of the school election
was canvassed and James o. Gull
IOFmdllv elecleu.
Mr.. Nichols spoke very highly OF
Mr.. Gull and stated the board will
be sure to find him pleasant and
an agreeable associate.

OF thanks to the Methodist, Chris
tan and Presbyterian demomina-
tions for the use of the buildings af-
ter the fire.
City Superintendent Reed read his
report for the semester and the same
was accepted by the directors and
great many expressions of salts
faction were heard at the condition
of the schools.
Miss Charlotte Lum and Miss
Bertha Kilgour were granted leave
of absence for a year SO they may
attend the state university. They
will be given their positions at the
expiration of that time.
Superintendent Reed also an
nounced with regret that Mrs. o. A.
Hawks Of the Barge school stated
about six weeks ago she will not
teach next year owing to the expira.
tion Of the time Of her certificate.
The superintendent Is authorized to
fill the three vacancies.
The members Of the board ex-
pressed regret at the departure OF
Director Nichols, stating that he had
been a faithful and efficient member
Of the board and that North Yakima
will never be better served In that
capacity that It has by him.

Attorney Jerome came to a standstil.
against practically a solid wall Of
rules the evidence have built around
the story of Evelyn Nesbit Thaw
Jerome began to attack this story
soon as court opened this morning.
There ensued well nigh a ceaseless
battle between the prosecutor and
Delmas, at the end Of which Judge
Fitzgerald upheld the rule laid
down at the beginning of the trial,
that young Mrs. Thaw's story was
admissible only as tending to show
the effect it might have had in un-
balancing the defendants mind, and
its truth or falsity is not material.
Jerome tried to evade this rule by
declaring he is endeavoring merely
to show by inference Mrs. Thaw
story to her husband. Although he
will doubtless be blocked by thc
same rule when the time comes, 1t
is said, Jerome may attempt in some
way to prove an alibi for White on
the night on which he is said to have
maltreated Miss Nesbit. Although
Delmas succeeded in nearly every
instance in winning his point, Je-
rome in every argument he made
got before the jury what his witness
would have testified if they had been
permitted. Jerome opened the bat
tie by calling F. W. Longfellow to
the stand AMI attempting question
ing him regarding the case in which
Ethel Thomas is said to have sued
Thaw for damages because Of cruel
treatment. Delmas blocked this by
objection, but before the Judge could
rule out the evidence Jerome de-
clared "the story Of the girl tied -
a bedpost and whipped by Thaw is
the story of Ethel Thomas. This
poor girl is dead
Delmas also objected to Jerome's
remarks. The latter then attempted
to question Longfellow regarding
the affidavit said to have been signed
in Hummel's office alleging Thaw
treated her cruelty because "she
would not tell lies about Stanford
White"
There was another long argumen.
between Delmas and Jerome, which
ended in Longfellow's turning his
entire examination into nanght by
declaring Mrs. Thaw had never
shown him the affidavit. The next
witnesses were the police officers
who took Thaw into custody. They
declared Thaw acted nationally at
ter killing White. Captain Hoig.
ings created something Of a SEN
sation by persisting in making CON-
PARSONS in his answers. Two Of
his answers we're stricken out be-
fore one that was satisfactory was
secured.

Actual work will be started by
the Boosters club of the commercial
club today. At meeting of the
committee last evening it was agreed
to call the organization "The Yaki-
ma Boosters Club" Several other
names were suggested by the men,
bers of the committee, but as the
Herald had suggested that it be
called the Yakima Boosters club,
It was thought best to accept name
appropriated by the newspaper.
The committee elected H. P.
James, secretary of the commercial
club, to act in the same capacity for
the Boosters club. The salary OF
the secretary will be settled at lat
er date. The committee, which con-
sists of six members. was divided
into two committees to canvass the
city for subscriptions. Messrs. Wei.
gel, Lombard and Baylor will so
ncit funds on the south side Of the
streets, and Messrs. Morgan and
Larson will take care of the north
side of the streets. They will cover
every street in the city and great
many in the valley. and all citizens
in the valley who can not be per-
sonally interviewed by the commit
tee will be correspondent with. For
the purpose of securing subscrip-
lions the committee has had severa!
hundred subscription blanks printed,
which read as follows:
"I hereby agree to pay s.. per
month, for ten months, to the Yaki-
ma Boosters club for the purpose of
advertising the advantages and pro-
noting the interests Of North Yaki-
ma and valley"
It was also voted that contes.
be held and prize Of $40 offered.
to be given to the person submit
ting the best slogan to the COM
mittee for the use of the club. This
contest will close and all ideas must
be in with the secretary OF the CON-
mittee by March 20. AS soon as Suf-
fcient funds are secured the COM
mittee will have little buttons bear
ing the slogan, which WILL be sold
to anyone wishing them. This, the
committee believes. one OF the best
ways Of boosting. Tacoma's slogan
Is watch Tacoma grow" and
spokane's Every Road Leads to
Spokane" and what the committee
wishes is good up-to-iate motto
for the beautiful valley of the Yaki-
ma.
No definite plans have been made
as yet for the descriptive literature
which will be used. and will not be
until the money begins to come In.
The motto Of the citizens Of North
Yakima and the valley should al
ways be "Give, give and help the
good work" There is no such thing
as the committee receiving too much
money. and everybody from the
school boy mp to the "old timer"
should do their share to boost and
make Yakima valley the best IN
