Large Crowd at Cloverdale
Auction Sale.

One of the largest auction sales
which has ever occurred in Eastern
Washington took place on the Glover
dale farm this week, when property
belonging to the company, in the
amount of from ten to twelve thous-
and dollars was auctioned off to more
than two hundred and fifty farmers
from all parts of Whitman county.
A very noticeable phase of the sale
was the fact that the hogs did not 90
as we'll as the rest of the livestock,
and the farming equipments. nsMr.
Harvey. one of the principal Coverdale
stockholders, attributes this to the
fact that wheat is so high, that as
feed it is not profitable for hogs. The
ranchers prefer to sell the wheat to
feeding it to swine.
The other articles went at ton notch
prices, and there was much entbus-
lasm among the bidders. Col. Hicks
was the auctioneer. The owners esti-
mate that the rain which occurred in
the evening, and practically dispersed
the crowd, cost the Cloverdale concern
no less than $4,000. The owners of the
Cloverdale concern are Messrs. W. H.
Harvey, and G. G. Nelson. both Of
whom intend to retire from the more
active affairs of business in the near
future. Mr.. Harvey expects to retain
his home in town, and will be in town
at irregular intervals. G. G. Nelson
expects TO journey to California in the
near future, in hopes of improving
his health.

READING THE STARS.
An Authors Mastery of the Science of
NaNin alton.


Navigation.
by the end of the week, teaching
myself" writes Jack London in Har-
per's Weekly of his mastery of the sci
ence of navigation. Il was able to do
divers things. For instance, | shot the
North star at night, of course-got its
altitude corrected for index error, dip,
etc, and found our latitude. And this
latitude agreed with the latitude of the
previous noon corrected by dead reck-
Oning up to that moment. Proud
Well, l was even prouder with my
next miracle. l was going to turn in at
8 o'clock. l worked out the problem
self instructed and learned what star
Of the first magnitude would be pass
ing the meridian around half past 8.
This star proved to be Alpha CruciS. I
had never heard of the star before. l
looked it up on the star map 1t was
one of the stars of the Southern Cross
What. thought |! Have we been sailing
with the Southern Cross in the sky of
nights and never known it? Dolts that
we are! Gudgeons and moles! /
couldn't believe it. | went over the
problem again and verified it. Charmi-
an had the wheel from till 10 that
evening I told her to keep her eyes
open and look due south for the South
ern Cross, and when the stars came out
there shone the Southern Cross low on
the horizon. Proud? No medicine man
nor high priest was ever prouder Fur
thermore, with the prayer wheel l shot
Alpha Crucis and from its altitude
worked out our latitude, and still fur
thermore l shot the North star, too,
and it agreed with what had been told
me by the Southern Cross. Proud?
Why, the language of the stars was
mine, and | listened and heard them
telling me my way over the deep"

fashioned "quilting bee". A dozen or
more comfor,ers were tackled and
stitched by the industrious members
of the Circle, aaand will be made use of
in the sick wards of the hospital.
After the afternoons work was
done. supper was served, during which
toasts were called for and several of
the ladies responded with very APP
propriate remarks.
Among those present were Mrs.
Ed. Gallagher. Mrs. J. NJ. Palmerton,
Mrs. j. Brooks, Mrs. ]. w. Price,
and Mrs. G. f. Johnson.
Walter Raby who during the past

PUBLIC SCHOOL NOTES

Several English tests were given
this week and one history test.
Roy Matlock entered the high school
Monday. Louie Henry has also en-
tered school.
The foot ball prospects at the high
school have been considerably bright
ened by the coming of new football
material.
The rest of the football goods that
the Athletic association ordered sew
eral weeks ago of the Spalding COM
pany have not yet come.
1t seems queer that a second foot
ball team cannot be gotten out of the
high school. There is certainly
enough bouys of they would only come
out, but they seem to to lack loyal
feeling towards the team.

In the game at Garfield, Saturday,
the Pullman High school foot ball
team was defeated by a score of IL to
0. This was not at all surprising as
it was the first game the boys ever
played together. Garfield had fine
interference for their backs but the
speed of the Pullman team brought
this to a balance. In the first half
the Pullman team did not hang
together at all 1t was in the first half
of the game that the Garfield team
made its two touchdowns. Both of
these were made in % minutes. In
the second half Pullman team saw
where to strengthen its line so that
they held their own during the rest
of the game. The second half was
played almost wholly in Garfeld's
territory. WeXler and Captain Ken
needy did fine work on the defensive
and WeXler and Denison were just as
good on the offensive. Rex futile
accompanied the team as referee.
There was not very big attendance.
The train was due at 6 :35 but it was
found that it would be two or three
hours late. The boys waited that time
and then founnd that the train might
not be in till very late, the most of
them then got rooms at the hotel but
few remained to wait, for the train
which arrived at II 80 and got to Pull
man at two o'clock. The rest of the
boys came home on the 10 80 train.
The HAYES played were twenty-five
and twenty minutes, at the game on
account of the fair at Spokane. About
fifteen dollars were tapken in but this
did not near pay the expenses. The
game was played partly on baseball
diamond and partly on a stubbe field.
A large number of Garfield High school
students accompanied the boys to the
station and made it lively for awhile
with their football yells.
A step should be taken at school to
keep the temperature in all the class
rooms balancing. AS it is a student
may pass from a room that is too hot
into one that is not hardly heated at
all. This might give pupils a very
bad cold.
