TALE OF BARBER COLEMAN WHO

There the two met, and, it is under
stood, mutual affection was the re-
suit of their acquaintance. This state
of affairs, it is stated, the father op-
posed, and in the course of time, it is
claimed, sought to break up by not only
coming west, but also endeavoring in
every possible way to prevent young
Coleman from following. That the
effort was unsuccessful, is attested by
COleman's presence here.
Coleman's story of his trip west is
as follows:
Il left Aberdeen on the 18th of last
April, and made my way west by
working at barbering in the principal
cities along the route. Though 1 took
an entirely different route from that
taken by Mr.. Holmes and his family.
they were under the impression 1 was
following them, as 1 left Aberdeen just
a day ahead of them. They brought
with them pony and dog in a char
tered car, and were of the opinion that
l was riding in this car with the man
who had charge of it, and whom 1 ha i
always considered a friend.
Il understand they had the car
stopped and searched a number of
times in hopes of finding me. Not

Holmes framed up conspiracy with
the sheriff of Aberdeen whereby
should be arrested on a. false charge
and taken back to the east. He seemed
to be of the opinion that if 1 were
taken back, l would never return, but
there is where he is mistaken. I would
return a thousand times if it were nee
essary.
Il had been In Walla Walla 10 days
and was working at the Antisen
barber shop. when this man who had
charge of the pony, saw me, and told
the police. They had picture Of me
and warrant charging me with the
theft of an overcOat at Aberdeen.
Immediately 1 was thrown into jail,
and have stayed there until released
this morning.
The telegram for the release of
Coleman was received at 10 o'clock
last night, but gave no explanation as
to the reason for the release. Cole

suit against the Aberdeen sheriff. 1t

fortune on Wall street. His home is

All of the characters necessary to a
thrilling tale of romance are found
in the story of William Coleman, who
was arrested here last Saturday on a
charge Of larceny preferred against
him in Aberdeen, S. D., and who was
released from custody this morning.
True, the romance is not fully devel
oped, but the end of the of the chapter
is not yet. Whether it will end with
"lived happily ever after" or whether
the closing will be devoted to bleeding
hearts and shattered dreams, it is for
them to say who fill it's cast.
However, if perseverance on the part
of the hero shall have any weight in
the scale of the goddess who judges the
cause of mortals in love and war, it
would seem a happy termination is
assured.
According to Coleman, his arrest and
subsequent confinement in Jail, was
but the result of a deep dyed conspir
acy on the part of the father of the
heroine and the sheriff of Aberdeen,
S. D. The name of the former is c. F.
Holmes. a retired liveryman. He is
now building a fine home here on
Isaacs avenue.

listened to by the vast crowd on the

TAKING THE SCHOOL CENSUS
Work is Progressing Under the
County Superintendent

County Superintendent Bond has re-
ceived orders from r. B. Bryan, super
intendent of public instruction, to in
sititute a census of all children of
school age. This work is now going on.
Owing to the increased assessment it
is now possible to secure a maximum
of $40 for every child of school age.
Heretofore the assessment of five
mills prevented the levy of a sum suf-
ficient to produce $40. The assess
ment now reaches a maximum of nine
cents a day.
The next examination for school GER
tificates which are for not less than
three months nor more than six, will
take place Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday. August 5. 6 and 7, at the
county superintendent offices at Seat
tie, ChehaliS, Spokane, Wenatchee,
Walla Walla and North Yakima.
The work of going over the May ex-
aminations is now going on and the
results will be forthcoming in a few
days.

rain of the 18TH did much for both the
winter and the spring -sown grain. An
other rain like that in the middle of
June would make the crop practically
safe The spring wheat is little back

than when it has an early start. How

Siderably by hot winds.

was of sufficient length to size up the

Unless friends of the annexation

defeated. This is the unanimous opin-
ion of those who have visited the diff

There is still a forlorn hope of the
late vote this evening going in favor
of annexation, but at this writing
2.3O oclock-there are slight iniica
tions of success in arousing sufficient
interest.
A big surprise was sprung when
strong opposition to the annexation
proposition was developed in the city,

annexation would carry. This was du-

fair ground tract.

Some Of the fair association men and
representatives Of the liquor interests
started out early to defeat the propo-
s1tlon in the city on the ground it
would mean the licensing of the saloon
bars at the fair grounds during the
fair meeting and add such obstacles
as would amount to prohibiting the
sale of liquor during the fair. This
argument switched a number of votes
and caused many others to remain
away from the polls.
In the outlying districts the oppon-
ents to the plan of being taken into
the city got busy early, while those in
favor of annexation appeared apathetic
and Indifferent.
