AN EVENING EPISODE
In the World of Practical Joking Mr..

In the world of practical jokes the
jobber must depend upon being jobbed

that is coming to him. There is a
guild of young men in this village just
developing into the practical joke age

around with considerable regularity

had a few dependable pals for steer

the organization of every hale human
whose blood is anything better than
dishwater. is that assailed by a wom-
ans smile and the Phoenix youth are
only human. When the pals suggest
ed to Mr.. Easy Mark that he could
meet a charming girl in a certain
place who had expressed desire to
meet him. and all he had to do was to
knock. he took the bait as keenly as
a hobo devours a free lunch. There
was no window on the side of the
room containing the door and he was

later the light was turned on and
Easy Mark saw Jobber attired in a
fetching feminine costume, and about

WASHINGTON HAY
is OF THE BEST

That the stae of Washington enjoys
an enviable reputation for the quail
ty of hay grown, is proven again by
the action of the civil government for
use in the Philippine islands, bids hav-
ing been submitted by dealers all over
Walla Walla men.
The superiority of Washington hay,
ranking, as it does. with the excellent
quality of oats and other forage pro-
duced in this state has been frequent
ly brought to the attention of the war
department, and the bids which have
been submitted, though not made pub
lie, have been opened both in this state
and in Manila. Those opened here were
for American hay delivered either at
New York, Seattle or San Francisco
The bids opened here have been for
Warded to Manila, where they will be
compared with bids opened in the
Philippines for hay raised there.
The war department hardly makes
a secret of the fact that Washington
hay is in biggest official favor. Eastern
Washington timothy is regarded as the
standard seldom equaled in the pro-
posals of bidders in California and
other states. The respective bids late
ly opened here have not yet been made
public. The Robinson bid of Seattle
is we'll considered by the war depart
ment, but the Philippine commission
has the awarding of the contract

MANY OPENINGS FOR
r. r. MAIL CLERKS

The next few months will find all
kinds of openings for successful ap-
plicants for the position of railway
mail clerks. according to the follow
ing interview given out a few days
ago by Superintendent Stephens OF
the eighth division of the railway mail
service. with headquarters in Sna
Francisco:
During the next IS months the
railway mail service in the state OF
Washington will be enlarged more
than in any state west of the Missis
sippi river.
Nineteen additional clerks will be
required on the North Bank road alone
when the line is completed from Pas
CO. Then the operation of the extern
sion of the Chicago, Milwaukee & ST.
Paul railroad to the coast will call on
the railway mail service for many
other clerks No state in the union is
to see as much undeveloped territory,
now without railroad facilities, opened
up during the next few months as is
Washington.
Congress is commencing to give
the railway mail service more atten-
ton than before. The entire salary
system of the service is soon to be
reorganized At present the maximum
pay of clerks depends upon the car pay
received by the government. This
system is to be abolished. On one
run into Spokane this will double the
salaries of the clerks"

NORTH COAST
CUTS SEATTLE
FOR PORTLAND

Seattle and Tacoma will be elimin-
ated as terminals for what is now
known as North Coast Limited" train
of the Northern Pacific, upon the
completion of the North Bank road,
the new Hill line. Portland will be the
coast terminal for this, the SWEETEST
train now running into the northwest
The running time through connections
to be made with the Burlington at Bill
lings, Mont, will be 20 hours, cutting
the present running time of the O. r.
& N. and Union Pacific "Overland''
down two hours.
The new North Coast Limited" over
the North Bank to Spokane, the North
ern Pacific of Billings and over the
Burlington to Chicago will be made up
of new equipment throughout, being a
solid train of electric lighted, vesti-
buled Pullmans, with compartment and
observation coach attached.
The announcement that this change
is to be made by the Hill people came
through private sources, but is author
itative. The elimination of Tacoma
and Seattle as terminals for this pal
ace on wheels will in a measure be
compensated for by the running of a
train from Puget Sound points, to con-
sist of through Pullman sleepers of the
same type as the regular North Coast
Limited out of Portland. This stub
train will leave Seattle over the North
ern Pacific in time to conect with the
North Coast Limited over the North
Bank at KenneWick, and there the Pu-
get Sound coaches will be hooked on
for the run through to Chicago.
