NORMAL SCHOOL BOARD MEETS
Receives Presidents Report, With
Suggestions-Contract Let

The board of trustees of the State
Normal school met today in semi-an-
nual session, L. S. Ollie of Caldwell
and S. Belle Chamberlain, the non
resident members, arriving this
morning. The meeting was called
to order this morning, routine busi-
ness occupying the attention of the
board the greater part of the time.
President Black submitted his re-
port, which was read and approved.
President Black reported fully on
the work of the physical training
department which was organized
this year, with Miss Madge Deems as
the directress. The report outlined
the work fully showing how Miss
Deems makes physical examination
OF the girls in order to determine the
style of gymnastics needed to deyelop
the physical growth of the pupil.
The report contains a recommen-
dation that an additional teacher be
secured for the academic depart
ment, he to devote a portion of his
time to directing the physical train
ing of the boys. A male teacher is
needed who will cooperate with
Miss Deems in advancing the physi-
cal training department.
During the afternoon the board
inspected the buildings, visiting the
girls dormitory which is in process
of construction. They found the
workmen busy roofing the structure,
and We're well satisfied with the
progress being made.
Late this afternoon the board met
to open bids for drop shades for
the windows. Four bids have been
received, two from Lewiston and two
from Spokane houses. The Lewis
ton houses who submitted bids are
McGilvery & Seeley and the Lewis
ton Furniture company. The con-
tract for furnishing shades for the
dormitory windows will be let be-
fore adjournment.

A verdict of guilty was rendered
,hy the jury in the case of Garret L..

from G. W. Allen, farmer near
HNezperee. Judge Steele will pass
sentence on him November IS.
This afternoon; the court is draw
ing the jury in the case of ]. c..
Reasley, charged with entering the
house of James Gibson of Culdesac
on November r6 of last year and
stealing 81 400 in currency.
He was arrested at the time and
was given a preliminary hearing and
was bound over to the first term of
court ON $1,000 bonds, but on the
date of trial he did not appear and
the bond was declared forfeited
IHfs bondsmen offered $1,000
reward for him and he was located
in Alberta and brought to this city
by c. T. Stranahan. There is great
interest in the trial, for it is said
that when Beasley was arrested in
Alberta his wife and children were
left in destitute circumstances
Judge Steele yesterday issued an
injunction restraining the sheriff
from selling the timber claim of J.
F. Brown, located in the Clearwater
country to satisfy Judgment in the
sum of $1,5O921 in favor of Fl. P.
Hull. An old Judgment held by Mr.
Hull for the sum of 1,509.21 was
made the basis of an action. Hull,
1t appears, had gone through bank
ruptcy, and in his showing did not
include the Judgment against
Brown, but later attempted to col
lect it. p R. Beyis, who loaned Mr..
Brown the sum of $500 upon the
claim, becomes a party to the action
restraining the sheriff from setting
the property.

The trial trip occurred in April,

ming between rittsburg and Steuben-
vile. When the train was going at
fun speed, suddenly, as he came
around sharp curve, the engineer
saw stalled wagon in the middle
of the track dead ahead, With hand
brakes only nothing could have
prevented a terrible smasa-up. The
formal time for the trial of the air
brakes had not come. but the brake
was there, and in desperation. not
believing for moment that the
thing could possibly avail, the en-
gineer threw on the air But did 1t
avail. The observers in the rear were
almost catapulted out OF their seats
by the shock of the sudden ston.
But when they saw the engine fairly
pokiug its nose into the wagon bed.
