A BIG WASHOUT
IN THE PALOUSE
Northern Pacific Trains Will Pass
Through Here Until Tomorrow
1t is Thought.

Some time Saturday, according to
the very meager reports received
here at the Great Northern depot,
there was a big washout in the Pa
louise country, somewhere between
Spokane and Pasco, about one hun
dred and forty miles west of SpO-
kane, near Ritzville. Details of the
washout are not known here, but the
trouble was of enough Importance to
make it necessary for Northern Pa
cific trains to take the Great Nor
thern tracks into Spokane, and from
there on through Wenatchee to the
Sound. The whole Palouse country
is affected by the washout, and of
ficials at the depot said this morning
that it would undoubtedly be tomor-
row some time before the Northern
Pacific trains would be running on
their own tracks.

THRILLING TRAGEDY
NARROWLY AvERTED
Brewster Man, at Risk of His Life, Rescues
Rancher From Watery Grave in
Whirlpool Currents.

One of the most thrilling adven-
tures that has ever been experienced
in Central Washington was enacted
Saturday evening at Brewster when
Frank Brewer of that place at the
risk of his life saved rancher by
the name of Scott from watery
death in the Columbia. river.
Scott Overheard.
Scott had left the town of Brew
ster and expected t. row 10 his ranch
down the river. The boat lay near
the wharf boat which lies IN a ten
knot current. The wa:cr at the riy-
er where the small boat lay was be-
hind drift wood in the eddy. In at
tempting to get into the boat he
fell overheard.
Foo. in OarlOrk.
AS he fell his foot caught IN The
oarlock. Hanging head downward
in the water with his ankle in the
lock the boat foated into the deep
and swift current and was whirled
toward the wharf boat under which
large logs are carried in by the force
of the water.
Brewer to the Rescue.
Frank Brewer, who has been IN
tho employ of the c. & o. Company
appeared at the head of the boat at
this time. Seeing the foot emerging
from the water and without ever
stopping to shout for help, he sprang
for the boat, and missed it.

SUPERIOR COURT
CONVENED TODAY
w. l.. Davis, Accused of Murder, is the
First Prisoner to Engage
Its Attention.

Superior court convened this morn
ing and as the members of the trib-
unal which administers justice gath
cred at their respective places in the
court house there was presented the
spectacle of man accused of MUIR
der sitting in the dock. a faithful
wife AMI a little child near by, the
usual crowd of morbid lookers-on at
a trial of man for his life, and
the court officials. II was dreary
morning for the prisoner, w. l.. Dav-
is. The overcast skies and leaden
horizon, just visible through the sin
gle window back of the prisoner, af-
forded no comforting satisfaction to
him, and the weather was equally
depressing for the faithful relatives
who will, it is sail. follow the fort

On trial for his life. What a
world of tragedy and melancholy
meaning there is in these words. A
man accused of murder is always an
object of deep concern to any com
munity, whether he be thought gull
ty or innocent. How much more sig
nificant then must be the feelings
of the one who must face the hid
eous charge. The crime Davis is ac-
cused OF is familiar to most of the
World readers. What the outcome
will be is what interests them the
more now.

BRIDGE CREW
RESUME WORK
False Work Taken Out by High Wat
er to be Replaced at Once
Start Work Soon.

A crew of bridge carpenters ar
rived on the early morning train
from Seattle to resume construction
on the big highway bridge across
the Columbia. Owing to the high
water last spring the work was STOP
ped on the steel construction but
work has been continued during the
summer on the approach to the We
natchee end of the bridge
The crew that arrived this morn
ing are to do the preliminary. work
and put in false work that was taken
out by the high water last spring.
Steel construction will begin in
about ten days or two weeks. II
would be better il the water in the
river was several feet lower. How
ever with the present drop of eight
inches per day the high water need
not bother by the time the workmen
get to that part part of the work
Inspector A. L. Preston will have
charge of the present crew until the
steel men arrive to begin the real
work of construction of the bridge
Within two weeks there will prob
ably be large crew of. men on each
81 lie of the river rapidly extending
steel to the middle of the river. 1t
is hoped and expected that the bridge
will be completed and ready for trav-
ell within three months.

GOOD WORK OF
REFORM SCHOOL
Nine State Institutions for the Men
tai and Moral DefOrmed-un-
fortunates Receive Care.
Special to the World.

Special to the W Orlu.
CHEHALIS, Aug. 26.-One Of the
branches of the. state government
that receives special consideration at
the hands of the administration is
the conduct of the various charitable,
reformatory and penal institutions
which Washington has so generously
provided for the benefit Of her unfor-
tunates and aflicted citizens and for
the protection Of society In general.
These Institutions are nine in num-
Der and consist OF the Eastern Wash
ington Hospital for the Insane. at
Medical Lake; the Western Wash
ington Hospital for the Insane, at
Stelicoom; the State Institution for
the the Feeble Minded, at Medical
Lake; the State School for Deaf and
Blind, at Vancouver; the Soldiers
Home, at Orting: the Branch Sol
diers' Home, just established and in
course of construction at Port Or
chard; the penitentiary, at Walla
Walla; the State Reformatory, re-
Gently located at Monroe and not yet
constructed; and the State Training
School, at ChehaliS. OF all the instl-
tutions named the last is probably
the most important in point of actual
beneficial results to society. 1t was
formerly designated at the State Re-
form School, but the legislature wisl-
ly changed the name to the Training
School, which is far more applica-
bile designation. The State Training
School is in no sense a penal or pun
tive institution. II is truly refOrma-
tory both in its purpose and accom-
plishment. There is an almost uni
lversal popular misconception of the
nature of the training school. 1t is
very generally believed to be a place
of punishment for the incorrigible
and criminally inclined youths of the
state. On the contrary, however. the
inmates of that school are most for
tunate, and with few exceptions con-
slider themselves SO, In being sent
there and having the opportunity to
enjoy the training and experience af-
forded by the school. The majority

tiles they are sooner eligible to pa
role by reason Of good conduct and
marked improvement.
The state training school was es-
tablished by act Of the legislature OF
1891, and since its construction, has
received 1925 boys and 345 girls. At
present there are 174 boys and 35
girls in the care of the school. The
work that the school has accomplish
ed and is performing is best Illus
trated by the fact that between Is
and so pc rcent of those who have
been discharged from that institu-
ton are now leading honest ald re-
spectacle lives, worthy citizens of
the state and valuable members of
society.

Chas. f. Reed, and his wife. who is
matron, are broadminded. humane
and practical people. They are in

of gentle firmness and are devoted
to the work. Added to this they both
possess to a marked degree that rare
quality, personal magnetism that
inspire all children with confidence
and respect. They have competent
corps of instructors under them, who
ably second their efforts.
The common school branches are
taught up to and including the eighth
grade. Besides this the boys are
-iven a thorough training in several
of the different manual branches,
such as carpentering. cobbling, tall
oring. ETC., and the girls are instruct
cd in the domestic duties and also
given stenographic training. One of
the principal features is the musical
training afforded. The instructor of
music is a graduate Of the Munich

attitude OF many prospective jurors
