Test Firing at the Monitor Florida.

Some disappointment is expressed by
naval experts that the attack which is
proposed on the monitor Florida In
Hampton roads may not be under con-
ditions which more nearly approach those
of actual warfare. On the ground that
it is impractiCable to fire at ranges like
those actually occurring in time of bat
tle-that Is. 5000 or 5000 yards-it Is pro-
posed so to elevate the gun and so to
heel the ship as to obtain the velocity at
the impact which 1t Is estimated would
obtain If the projectile had travelled the
5000 or 5000 yards. Some Of the experts
say that this will not be fair test and
that nothing short of having actual bat
tie range with minimum of 500 yards
will show just what a shell may do
against armor. either that which covers
The hull of the ship or that which is used
In the protection of the guns in the
form Of turrets. II is stated In reply to
this criticism that If experimental shots
We're fired at those distances many of
them would not strike the armor at all
and il is desired to have an impact which
can be controlled as to velocity and place
Of hitting. The question is still Open
but the chances are it will be decided in
favor Of the program which calls for the
shorter range. 1t has been decided, how
ever. not to fire shells laden with high
explosives and especially of those types
which are as yet untried.

Spokane, Feb. 1.-THE big fire en-
gine from station No. was unable
10 get within two blocks Of a fire
that destroyed the office and store
room of the mechanical department
of the oregon Railroad &c Navigation
company on its tracks west Of Di-
vision street and about 11:45 o'clock
Wednesday night. 1t lodged against
timber across the street at the north
end Of the Division street bridge and
stuck firmly in the mud, the wheels
sinking to their hubs. The fire was
out before the engine was freed.
Separated from the light frame
building, which was quickly consum-
ed, was the railroad oilhouse contain
ing 1000 gallons of oil. The efforts
of the firemen were confined to
keeping the fire from spreading to
the nearby building.
The office, which was closed last
night at o'clock, contained two
stoves, I'm one of which a fire was
kept during the day, from which 1t
is probable the blaze started. The
records and most of the furniture Of
the office were saved. The damage
is slight.

FORMER CARLISLE FOOTBALL
STAR FACES SERIOUS CHARGE

Wallatsi was a player on the Car
Isle football squad during his time
and is a fine built Indian physically
He is also a good fellow" with
which class certain portion of the
afterworld Is said to be filled. But
all his learning has not been suf-
ficient to enable John to control his
thirst for "firewater" and as a result
he is going fast down the toboggan
slide to ruin.
During the revival meetings on the
reservation last summer Wallatsi was
one of those to kneel at the mourn
er's bench and for several weeks he
was good Indian. But the holy
spirit did not stay with him perma-
nently.
AS the theft of which Wallatsi is
accused was committed on the reser-
vation he will be examined by John
HALEY, jr.. and II there is sufficient
evidence against him he will be sent
to Portland for trial before the fed
eral court.

A meeting Of the union men has
been held to discuss the order all

appointed to attempt to get new con-

John Wallatsi, former Carlisle
student and well known young man
OF the reservation, is now face to face
with a charge of horsestealing. At
least such charge will confront him
when he is released from the city
jail, where he is now serving a short
sentence for being drunk
Wallatsi is accused of having dis
posed OF a horse belonging to James
Crawford, another Indian. Accord
ing to the story told by Crawford to
John HALEY, jr., United States COM
missioner, Wallatsi borrowed the
horse about the middle OF January.
Afer riding him, a few days ago he
decided to sell the animal and did so
to a man named Adams. Upon the
proceeds of the money derived from
the deal he made a tour to Lewiston
and other points in northern Idaho.
A few days ago he returned to Pen-
dleton and concluded his time by
getting drunk and in jail.

Portland, Feb. 14.-Tonight's g
Evening Journal will print the follow
ing dispatch from Chehalis, Wash
There is an epidemic OF diphtheria
at the Chehallc reform school, al
though exact reports of its exact ex-
tent are conflicting. Superintendent
Thompson OF the reform school, says
there is none. but on good authority
II is reported that five have died In
the school from the disease. They
are Helen Coleman, a daughter Of the
physician OF the reform school; Ell
mer Mills. an employe, a daughter
OF the night watchman and two in
mates
1t is said that the original cause OF
the spread OF the disease was based
on the fact that the school was not
quarantined.
So widespread Is the feeling that
the danger from the malignant dis
ease Is liable to break out in the
town that the public schools have
been closed.
Acting on he same principle, the
school teachers institute, which was
to have been held here, has been
changed to Centralia.
