CAPT. BOMF0RO
RELIEVED
POPULAR OFFICER IN CHARGE
OF RECRUITING STATION TO
REJOIN HIS REGIMENT FOR
SERVICE IN ALASKA.

Capt. George N Bomford, U. S.
A., who has had charge of the Spo-
kane recruiting office for the past
two years, has been relieved of re-
cruiting duty and will rejoin his
old regiment, the Twenty-second
infantry, at Fort Davis, four miles
from Nome. The relief order is
dated for August 3, but the captain
hopes to be able to leave Seattle
July Z on the transport Crook. He
will take command of H company
on reporting for duty Mrs. Bonn
ford and family will accompany
him to the North. The Twenty
second has relieved the Tenth at
Fort Davis and will be on the sta
ton two years.
Lieut.. Loeb, of the Ninth, has
been assigned to relieve Capt.
Bomford in the recruiting office.
Capt. Bomford Is one of the best
liked officers that have been sta
toned at Spokane, and one of the
most successful recruiters. He was
relieved at his own request in or
der to participate in the active
service of his regiment, with which
he served in the Philippines. Long
from his command is
one thing the genuine army officer
can't stand, no matter how pleasant
the surroundings.

ATTACKS POLICE RIGHT
TO ARREST

The constitutionality of the city
ordinance empowering police of
ficers to arrest suspicious charac-
ters, is attacked this morning in a
reply which Fred E. Chapman filed
to the city's answer to his com
plant in which he asks 100000
damages for false arrest. He al
leges thai there never existed any
reasonable cause to suspect him OF
the offenses which Libby Hulsel
charged.
Chapman came to Spokane from
st. Louis and acquired notoriety
trough trouble with a woman named
Libby Hulser as the result of which
he was arrested. 1t is for this ar
rest that he is suing the city fol-
$4,000. Leroy Waller was chief OF
police at the time.

WHITE UNIFORMS
FOR SOLDIERS

Uncle Sam is getting more par.
ticular about the dress of his SOL
diers, and as a result the recruiting
station on Howard st. this summer
will look somewhat like a summer
resort. Lieutenants, sergeants and
men will be dressed in white, if the
weather ever gets warm enough.
When not in white, they will wear
dress uniform. There is method in
Uncle Sans ideas. Oficers and
men in cool white around the re-
cruiting Office on hot day, or in
full uniform spick and span, is more
than likely to suggest pleasant pos
sibilities to young men who take
notice and are in the right frame
of mind and circumstances to con-
siJer joining the army. The new
order is now in effect

THIRD CALL TO OLD ME-
CHANCES HOTEL CAUSES IN
JURY TO FIREMAN BY GLASS
FALLING ON HIS NECK.

The third incendiary attempt to
burn the old Mechanics hotel on
Front and Washington, which is
now being torn down, was made
last evening and one of the results
was a painful injury suffered by
l.. E. Seely, a substitute at the fire
department headquarters. Seely
was climbing through window
with a chemical tank on his back.
The tank broke the glass above and
falling piece cut him deeply in
the back of the neck. The wound
is painful but is not considered
dangerous.
What the object may be in try
ing to burn the old building or who
the guilty party is something of a
mystery. Every call to the place
means danger to the firemen, and
a blaze there might easily do con-
siderable damage if it got start.
