desire for show and cares little for deco
rations so that he is rarely seen IN a

Birthday Surprise to Quarles.

County Auditor T. L. Quarles

home Thursday evening of last
week by the county officials and
deputies, who came in to help him
celebrate his 38th birthday ami
versary. About twenty guests
were present, all the gentlemen
courthouse people having been in
vited and all or nearly all of them
being in attendance. 1t was an
evening of enjoyment to all, games
being played and dainty refresh
ments served. The feature of the
surprise was the gift to Mr.. Quar-
les of handsome solid gold chain
and K. of P. watch charm. County
Attorney c. H. Potts made the

About 500, 900, Of all the surplus
from the last Spokane Interstate Fair,
is being expended for permanent i'm
provements. A large addition to the
grand stand has been built, go that
there will now be seating capacity for
almost 10000 people. A wide, we'll.
graded boulevard has been put in from
the team entrance to the grand stand,
and more than 100 trees have been
set out Ia different parts of the
grounds. In order to provide space
for the vehicle and machinery exhi-
bits, which are planned for this year,
about 10 acres more have been fenced
10 at the west end Of the grounds.
Another change made necessary by
the increased crowds each year Is the
enlargement of the entrances. Ithas
been found necessary to rebuild all
the entrance gates this year and make
them about twice as large as hereto
fore. Another improvement which
will prove very popular Is large con-
venient rest room for women. This
will have all toilet cOnvenlences and
be heated, and will no doubt prove
very convenient.
