RAIDER is Manager
Star Fullback to Manage
1909 Football Team

Ralph M. RAIDER, assistant
coach of last years football team,
and star fullback two years ago,
was unanimously elected football
manager at a meeting of the
athletic association last Friday.
The new manager will have
the task of shaping the schedule
for the next season, at least until
the selection of a graduate man
ager. However, there seems to
be no doubt about the project of
getting the graduate manager
system instituted at the State
College. At the same meeting Of
the athletic association the ath-
letic committee was instructed to
wait upon the faculty and Presi-
dent Bryan to inform them that
it was the sense of the meeting
that a graduate manager to
handle all branches Of athletics
should be secured. Already ap-
plications have been received by
Secretary Fullerton of the as
sociaton and all that remains to
be done is to pass the amend
ment to the constitution and pro-
cure the manager, and as senti-
ment seems to be ovrerwhelm-
ing ly in favor of the graduate
system, the necessary steps will
be merely formalities.

Will u. of w. Cut
w. S. c. Athletics

That the university of Wash
ington will knowingly break the
terms of a written contract en-
tered into with the state college
last fall to meet the latter on the
local gridiron during the season
of 1909 as reported from Seattle
is not believed by either the fac
ulty or athletic management of
the state college.
J. H. McCroskey, manager of
the football for 1908, gave out
the following statement today in
regard to this question:
mo credencc is given to the
report just received here in the
Sunday Post-lntelligencer that
the University of Washington
was to cut off athletic relations
with the State College, particu-
larly as far as football is con-
cerned," said Mr.. McCroskey.
I'm the first place because no
communication has been received
either from the faculty commit
tee or from the student manage
ment on the subject. In the sec
ond place, because there is a
written contract of the universe
tvs with the W. S. c.. made by
myself and Manager Rasmussen
for games both the past year and
for the coming season and it is
not believed for an instant that
the University of Washington
is in a position, or desires to re-
pudiate its contracts.
AS the ruling on the eligibil-
ity of players in the University
State College game was identi-
cal in principle by both faculty
committees, it is hardly seen how
any permanent differences of
opinion could arise.
THE feeling at Pullman is that
a friendly relation in athletic
and all other contests between
the university and W s. C. is to
the interests of all concerned
and makes for the advantage of
good sport. "At the recent con-
ference at Seattle in which men,
bers of the university and coll
eye met, the friendliest relations
seemed to exist and there was
nothing to indicate a declaration
of war. Doubtless the delay in
arranging date for the schedule
is due to the fact that the State
College has been endeavoring to
establish the system of gradu-
ate manager, which has not
hitherto been had. The athletic
association has already taken ac-
ton in this matter and it looks
as though at an early date a
graduate manager system would
be in operation.

Mr.. Peddie lifted his eyebrows in
incredulous inquiry.
"Fffty-three?" said he. Us that

Armadillo once Lived in Texas.

81 don't suppose that there arG
many of them left, but in the old days,
when l lived in western Texas. the
armadillo was one of the commonest
animals of the plains remarked Col.
w. w. Putnam of Kansas City to
Baltimore American reporter. Civ
ilization, no doubt, has caused his dis
appearance, just as it has eXtinguished
many a species that used to be like
the sands of the seashore.
"The armadillo is a funny looking
little creature that looks for all the
world like an opossum with a shell on
his back. How did he come by that
shell which is also a shield or piece of
protective armor? In the prettiest
way imaginable. According to the
old Mexican legend the armadillo was
sent in direct answer to the prayers
of the devout people who long ago
resided in part of Mexico which
las badly infested with venomous
snakes. The inhabitants so beseeched
the Almighty for relief that suddenly
all the serpents seemed to have van
ished from the earth. In going about
the region once so badly plagued the
natives could find no more possums,
but instead an animal that seemed to
be one except that on his back was a
she'll. This was his armor which
brought immunity from the bite of a
snake and thenceforth the armadillo
began to make unrelenting warfare on
all poisonous reptiles. He is still true
to his reputation, and wherever found
is on the job of snake killing, as he
was centuries ago in old Mexico

A Great steel Tank.

The reservoir under construction TO-
the water system of Calcutta, India, is
really a great steel tank with ca.
pacity of 100000 imperial gallons It
is 321 feet square, 16 feet deep. and
ITS fiat bottom is approximately 81
feet above ground. 1t is supported on
81 steel towers, each approximately
20 feet square, consisting of four ver-
tical columns properly braced. The
tank will be divided into four equal
compartments, any of which may be
emptied independently of the others
The roof will be of slate on I-beams,
and covered with a waterproofing
membrane and then with concrete. The
foundation is concrete slab two and
one-half feet thick, covering the entire
area and REINFORCED with bars and

eramophone in Railroad Stations.

1t has been left to the managing
board of the Moscow, Windau &
Rybinsk railway to turn the gramo-
phone to practical use, says the Path
finder, for the board has announced
its intention to set up huge gramo-
phone at the Moscow station of the
line, so that the arrival and departure
of every train can be announced clear
ly to the travelling public. At the
same time, the gramophone will sound
the bell thrice, as is usual, before a
train starts on its journey. AS over
70 per cent. of the people of European
Russia are unable to read or write,
the ordinary time tables are not of the
smallest use to them, and the gramo-
phone referred to has a splendid fu.
ture before it, if only 1t can be made
to speak clearly and loudly enough.

PRODDED BY MUSIC
HOW MAJ. kENNoN GOT WORK
OUT OF THE FlLlPlNoS.
Band Airs Gave Impetus to Laborers'
Zeal in Building the Famous
Beneuet Road Through
Luzon Mountains.

Maj. L. w. V. Kennon, now com.
manding battalion of the Tenth in
fantry at Fort Benjamin Harrison, in
building the famous Benguet road
through the mountains of northern
Luzon, Philippine islands, accomplish
ed feat called humanity impossible
1t took music, money and a mongrel
army of 1000 men to do 1t, but Ben
guet road stands to-day one of the re-
markable highways of the world.
Maj. Kennon's army of 1000 road
builders rested only on Sunday. For
ten hours of each day they forged
ahead. On Sunday they rested in
their quarters, houses built .on poles
and grass. They amused themselves
with dances, cards and games that ap-
pealed to the different nationalities.
Maj. Kennon introduced music as one
of the attractions along his lonely
highway. He is known for his re-
sourcefulness and he does not deny
that he used music to get better work
out of the pleasure-loving Filipinos
and other Orientals. They did not
like to work, and when they did it
was with slow, sluggish movement
One day Maj Kennon decided to
try music as an impetus to zeal. He
assembled his band, made up of men
of all nations, and ordered it to move
quietly and secretly to place where
several hundred Filipinos were en-
gagged in drilling holes in the canyon
walls. The band stole up behind the
slow-g7irg drillers and suddenly
struck up favorite Oriental air In
stantly the Filipinos caught the spirit
of the music and began to beat their
drills against the rock in rhythm.
The result was more than sur
prise to the resourceful Kennon. He
kept that band busy after that. 1t fol-
lowed the Filipinos along the way and
played wherever they worked. From
laborers worth about ten cents day
he developed them into musical ma
chimes that worked to drum beats.
Maj. Kennon insists that his band
saved the Philippine government thou
sands of dollars.
A bet had been made between Maj.
Kennon and his foreman on one side
anu Iue meluUeIS Vi Iue L InlllppinS
commission on the other side that the
road would not be open by January
81, 1905. The story of the bet was
borne from tongue to tongue along
the road Maj. Kennon promised each
man a cigar if they won the bet. The
effect was good. The army of 1000
bent to their work, there being a man
to every seven feet of the road on the
last lap into Baguio. On January 20,
two days before the expiration of the
wager, Maj Kennon rode into Baguio
in carriage. There was great cell
ebration and every man in the Ken
non army smoked a good cigar
marked "The Kennon Special" each
with label bearing the majors pic

DIDN'T WISH TO CATCH HER
Clever Retort of Massachusetts, Law
yer to Vindctive Woman
Witness.

Massachusetts has furnished some
attorneys who have become famous
legal lights before the nation. The
town of Suffolk, in that state, has one
at present who bids for place among
them. This lawyer is noted for the
brightness and aptness of his retorts,
and any smart witness that gets ahead
of him has to sit up nights to frame
up the plot.
He was recently counsel for the
plaintiff in a case where woman was
very refractory under cross-examina-
ton. Although he used all politeness
and courtesy in his examination, he
received nothing but sharp and unsat-
isfactory replies. Her husband was
in court, meek and humble specimen
of the henpecked spouse. Finally the
lawyer put another very civil ques-
tion, to which the woman replied with
vindictive fire flashing from her eyes:
"Mr. Lawyer, you can't catch me,
and you needn't think you can; no,
stree, you can't catch mel"
With his most fetching smile, the
attorney replied:
Madam, haven't the slightest de-
sire to catch you, and your husband
looks to me as If he very sorely re-
gretted that he had succeeded"
The crier raped for order as a
wave of laughter swept over the court
room, and the Judge bowed his head to
hide a smile.
