SPANISH WAR
VETERANS ASK
FOR CEMETERY

A petition asking the city council
to dedicate a plot in the city ceme-
terry for the exclusive use of deceased
comrades of Henry w. LawtOn Camp,
United Spanish War Veterans, was
read to the city council Tuesday
evening, and the subject was referred
to the cemetery committee. The pc
tition, which was signed by c. S. Buff
fun, commander of Henry Lawton
camp, was as follows:
Henry w Lawton camp, United
Spanish War Veterans, respectfully
petition your honorable body to set
aside in the city cemetery, block g.,
for the use of the camp as burial
grounds for it's comrades. Our reasons
for doing this is that the graves of
our deceased comrades are at the pres
ent time scattered all over the GEM
etary and consequently hard to find.
If this block is set aside for us, we
can collect the graves into this plot
and have them all together, so that
on Decoration day and on other Oc
casons they can be easily located and
thus avoid their being neglected. 1t is
our desire to beautify this plot and
make it one of the attractive spots in
the cemetery. We would further state
that the national government furnish
es headstOneS, and it is our purpose
whenever We can see our way clear
to do so, to erect suitable monument
in commemOration Of our deceased
comrades"

The Drawback.

Beardman was a writer of plays
ultimately fairly we'll known in his
day. For nearly twenty years he
struggled and fought his way along
without meeting with any very pro-
nounced success, each play in turn
proving more or less of a failure At
last however, he produced a play that
really caught the public taste. He and
the famous Sheridan happened to be
present together on the opening night.
All went well. Success followed sue
cess, and applause greeted and ended
each scene. At the end of the second
act Beardman's elation got the better
of his discretion, and, leaning over to
Sheridan-as usual, too witty to be
merely symrathetic-he exclaimed:
Sheridan, Sheridan, it's going to be
a success complete SUGGEST"
AS, yes" murmured Sheridan,
with exquisite compassion in his voice,
too bad too bad"
"ToO bad?' stammered his friend,
completely taken off his guard. "Why,
too bad that it should prove sue
cess?'
Because now" retorted Sheridan,

to convince any one you wrote it,

Those out of the race are Whitman,
Idaho and Oregon.
Whitman's defeat at the hands of
both the Oregon Agricultural college
and the university of Washington, put
her out of the running. Idaho has also
suffered double defeat, at Whitman's
hands and by oregon. Oregon was
badly worsted by Washington.
Washington, the Oregon Agricultural
college and the Washington State col

heavy schedule, having a game every
week during the whole season, and
playing all, save one, of the confer
ence colleges. And she has won every
game but the one with the Washing
ton State college, in which a tie was
played. The Oregon Agricultural col
lege would look as a second runner,
