college buildings. The Rutgers boys
had "A cannon which disappeared,
and they were led to believe that
the Princeton students took It. Some
time afterward we recaptured our
cannon, and the Rutgers students
again marched down and got 1t. They
were compelled to return 1t, however,
by their own college authorities.
Baseball, as played today, was
unknown in the thirties. There was
the English game of rugby and crick-
ct, but college students had little

plenty of exercise by walking. A ia

half a mile from the college. II we
were fortunate we got chance to
look at the girls, but seldom had an
opportunity to talk to them. as a

GOOD WORK DONE
BY SALVATION ARMY

That the local corps of the Saliva
ton army has been (IOing effective
work is shown by tEe report of Ad-
iutant Arthur A. wilkins, for the
year ending August 81, 1908. showing
an expenditure of 1865, or a dollar a
day. in relief work, not including the
Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners
provided. The report Is As follows:
Railroad transportation for the sick
and needy persons, $52; rent 1or free
reading room, including heAtlng and
janitor, $165; so War Crys weekly to
the state penitentiary, S96 express
wagons to haul clothes for distribution
to the needy, 500; cash and provisions,
s13.5O: beds and meals, s10.50; adver-
tising free labor bureau, IS. Total, of
1865.
Adjutant wilkins makes a weekly re-
port which is sent to the army head
quarters in Seattle, and 10 per cent of
the income of the Walla Walla corps,
as is the case in all cities, having an
army. is sent to headquarters for the
maintenance of headquarters. Officers
who have had charge of the work here
for the past 12 months feel highly
pleased WITH tlle WOIh DCCh
done, for the relief of the sick, needy
and destitute, and arrangements are
now being made to give all deserving
people a big basket dinner on Christ
mas day.
The restaurant which was formerly
operated in connection with the read
ing room in the barracks on West AL
der street. has been discontinued, oW-
ing to the fact that it was found unsat-
isfactory to have the commisary de-
partment in the auditorium, where the
odors of the kitchen percolated through
the room. In case the attention of the
officers is drawn to sick and needy
men, they are taken to a restaurant.
where their meal is paid for, and in
case it is found necessary a bed is Sc
cured and paid for by the army.
In view of the fact that the income
of the local corps is mainly from con-
tributions on the streets, the work
done during the past year is hardly
little short of marvellous, and there are
many people now on the upward path
who owe their position and what they
are today to the action of the Saliva
ton army officers and members who
aided them when they we're down.
