Field.

ing for several days with some of his
former school friends who are mem
bers Of the college faculty at Walla
WIalla college. Mr.. Owen gave an in
teresting stereoptican lecture in the
college chapel showing the dire needs
of the mission field which he repre-
sents. The audience responded freely
to his call for means to carry on q,
small school in Central America where
the people might be taught how to car
ry on the industrial features of school
work. In a few minutes he raised The
sum OF about $4,000 and several IF

intelligent how to work and in this
they are ever ready to give the mis-
sionary substantial assis, ance.

The Chicago horseman. who is known
the length and breadth of the thorough
bred world as the Blonde Plunger," is
now campaigning quite a pretentious
string at Oakland, where his almost
proverbial luck has continued. Il in

letter continues. "Then I shall go

ment Believe me, our horses have all
along been moderated. You will have
ocular demonstration of this fact when
the warm May days roll around.
cat first glance it would seem as if
the English handicappers had been a
little rough on our horses, but for one
want to go on record as saying that
Colin. Ballot and Priscillian will make
clean sweep. I am particularly sweet
on the chances of Priscillian The big
strapping son of Hastings never had
occasion to stretch himself in the three
times he was sent to the races over
here-all of which he won with con-
summate case.
Il have had the question asked me
not once, but a dozen times, How do
you think our horses will perform in
England? I have already given my
answer in the foregoing paragraph. But
for such an outspoken opinion one
should have a reason. I have it.
I'm the first place, the great thor
oughbreds that we have sent across
the water have been trained on what
we call over here. 'pasteboard' tracks

one and all say, "That is the reason
Colin showed signs of lameness.' And
for just the very same reason my opin-
ion grows firmer-the grass and sod
courses, the deep, loamy soil of the
English courses, will suit our repre-
sentatives to nicely.
Distance Runners Feared.
'The distance races are the ones most
to be feared The English breeders
have paid more attention to long dis
lance races, stamina and what not.

ever, Priscillian will prove hard nut
to crack in any company"
Commenting on the chances OF the
American candidates for the Derby, Mr..
Ellison says:

KIDNEYS HURT MORE
THAN LUNGS IN BOYS
Medical Officers Of English School
Associations Discuss Health of
Young Athletes.

The schoolboy athlete was the sub
ject of discussion at the recent meet
ing of the medical officers of school
associa ions in England and the action
taken is of interest to those at the
head of the school athletic movement
In the states.
The text of the discussion was a let
ter published recently, in which Sir
Thomas Barlow. Sir Lauder Brunton,
Sir Alfred Fripp DIR. Goodhart and DIR.
Hale White expressed the opinion that
school and oross-country races ex-
ceeding one mile in distance are who'll
ly unsuitable for boys under the age of
49,
This opinion was traversed by DR..
Collier of Oxford, who denied emphat-
ically that many schoolboys were in
jured by long distance running.
The lungs of a boy, he contended,
were never damaged by long distance
racing, but the schoolboy athlete was
very liable seriously to injure his kid
neys..
More rowers and runners" he said,
''are prevented from pursuing athletics
by kidney trouble than from heart
trouble"
The association adou ed the follow
ing resolutions as embodying these
views:
ut is most important thai there
should be an ample interval Gone hour
at least be- ween the time of previous
meal and the beginning of active ex-
ercise.
Very rarely, or never, does run
ner excel over DO h long and short dis
tances. His efforts should be restricted
to the class of race which observation
shows 20 suit him best.
"The quarter mile race, run at top
speed from art to finish, involves
special strain and risk of serious ex-
haust.on. The entrants for this race
shou'd be most carely selected. and
is effects should be most carefully
observed by the master and the medi-
cal officer.
"Only few OF he stronger and old
er boys should be allowed to compete
for the longer distances

supervision are also needed in regard
to rowing, boxing and swimming Com

be enjoyed at Whitman college and for
week there will be a let up in du-
ties of every description connected
with the work of that institution, AL
though the week will be a period OF
social events for those who are in a
position to enjoy it, the time will prove
for members of the track team a
steady grind as they will be out in uni
form each day practicing their respec-
tive stunts. No candidates for the team
will be allowed TO go home, but must
train assidiously in order to meet the
standard required of all the athletes
attending the college. A training table
will be established a. Billings hall and
rigid training will be practiced until
the end Of the season.
Although Whitman will not
be strong in the weights this year, the
weakness will be more than made up
in the sprints, and in the hurdles. With
Martin, Barnes and Cox to take care
of the 100, the 22O and the quarter
the college will be able to hold her
own with the other institutions in
those events Martin and Cox are also
unexcelled in the low hurdles, both
holding fast records in that event.
Immedia ely following vacation, the
glee club will depart on it's tour OF
the Willamette Valley, and will be
gone one week, singing in seven cities
of Oregon, and southwestern Wash
ington during that fime. Thursday
and Friday of vacation, The Inland
Teachers Association viii hold meet
ings in the chapel, and the campus
will be no means deserted during the
holiday period.

NOT UNEXPECTED.

The announcements of Thomas F.
Marshall and A. j. Gronna Of their
candidates. for the long and short
term in the United States senate were
expected and will create no surprise
in political circles in the state. The
simultaneous publication of the an
nouncements and the agreement as
to the long and short term indicate
political understanding and an Of
fensive and defensive alliance be-
tween Mr.. Marshall and Mr.. Gronna.
Mr.. Marshall was a candidate before
the people at the second primaries
last year and was defeated by NJ. N.
Johnson, whose death leaves a vaean-
'cy to be filled, and for which place
Mr.. Gronna is a candidate. The SEN
atorial primaries are something more
than six months away, but the an
nouncements just issued indicate
that the campaign has begun and will
extend over period covering nearly
year In the event that no candidate
receives forty per cent of the vote
in June. IS
Both announcements are brief, but
will probably be followed with more
detailed statements of the platforms

The weather forecast published in
the local columns this morning, COW
ering all sections of the west and
northwest, emphasizes the fact, we'll
known by those who have kept tab
on the weather for the past few
years, that Bismarck and the Mis-
souri, slope is a favored region. The
temperature at Bismarck Is generally
several degrees warmer than other
portions of the state and the snow
fall is seldom as heavy as elsewhere.
The maximum temperature at Bis
marck yesterday was 10 degrees be-

| Kingdom. New directors are always
chosen from among the most pronis
ing young men in the city. When
| the deputy governor succeeds the
governor, usually the oldest director
becomes deputy governor In the Or
binary routine Of rotation it Is us
| ually about twenty years from the
time of young mans election to the
directory before he becomes govern
or. The young men have not much
influence on the board.
Thus it Is that the direction of the
bank is under the control of ga shift
ing executives; board Of directors
chosen too young for 1t to be known
whether they are able; committee
Of management lin which seniority
is the necessary qualification and old
age the common result; and no train
ed bankers anywhere" The last
feature will probably strike most per-
sons as being the most curious. Here
is probably what is the greatest bank
in the world under the management
of a board of control from which
bankers are specifically excluded.
Yet one of the notable features of
the history of the bank is the small
amount of 'tbad business" it has been
led into. It's name has never been
connected with any large or discred-
liable bad debt. 1t has never been
under the influence or dominion of
any man or clique of men who could
"use it" in the furtherance or pro-
motion of financial schemes for their
private enrichment. The great
strength of the bank, through which
it has been able to entrench itself
so firmly in public confidence, seems
to have lain in the high character Of
carefully chosen directors and the
steady attention they have always
given to the bank. They have been
proud to serve on the board of d.
rectors; they were excellent judges
of bills and securities, and they were
not to be deluded into lending coun-
tenance or support to reckless spec
ulators or to any enterprise that was
not legitimately conducted on
sound, conservative basis. So that in
spite of it's apparent defects and it's
anomalies, the bank has succeeded in
attaining it's foremost position be-
cause it had character" and was
in the interest Of the gen.
eral welfare.
