RUMORCAUSES
LITTLE WORRY
IN THE CITY

Members of the committee from the
Commercial club who are in charge of
the Dixie rock quarry question are
apparently not much worried by the
rumors circulated yesterday to the ef-
feet that the quarry is tied up through
the refusal of the Northern Pacific
company to construct the desired side
track When seen this afternoon, ore
of the committeeman said it did not
sound reasonable that the Northern
Pacific would fatty refuse sue ha re-
quest, and intimated that the situation
was not as alarming as reports might
indicate.
General Agent S. B. Calderhead, of
the Northern Pacific, said he had heard
nothing of the companys refusal
though it would not come under his
jurisdiction, and indicated a personal
Willingness to do what was right in
connection with the use of the quarry

FRESHIES AT THE

TIME THIS YEAR

When early this fall posters were
! tackled on all the available space
around the college campus drawing
the attention of the members of the
freshman class to the rules which had
! been drawn up for their especial
benefit by the upper -classmen, the
| members of the verdant class were
somewhat astonished and thought
they were being humbled and humi-~
litated to an unusual degree. The de-
crees which they were required to
respect were these:
1. All freshmen are required to
use the rear entrance to Memorial
building.
2 No. freshman shall be allowed
to smoke in the presence of upper
ella ssmen
3. All freshmen shall be required
to touch their hats to upper class
men.
Notice was received at the college
yesterday however in regard to the
rules governing the conduct of fresh
men at the University of Washington,
and now Whitman freshmen are
thinking that they got off very lucky.
While a Whitman freshman must live
in all humility during his first year
in college the screws are not put on
near,y SO hard as at the big state in
stitution in Seattle.
The freshman rules at the Univer-
sity of Washington as they were
posted on the campus at that insti-
tuition are.
1. Thou shalt wear small olive
colored cap with a large pearl but

2. Thou shalt not wear a derby on

For the purpose of securing fund

L. c. Goodwin, who is chairman of
the committee. is also state chaplain,
and expects to take a big delegation
from Walla Walla to the state aerie
meeting next year, and it is estimat-
ed there will be 5000 delegates there
on that occasion. At the meeting in
Seattle this year. the local Eagles
made an excellent showing. which
has resulted in much effective publi-
city for Walla Wa'la, and also made
a hard fight to have this city desig-
mated as the place of meeting in 1910.
However, North Yakima. because of
more favorable location. was success
ful. and it is probable the Garden

mined attempt next year.

on Eskimos' Talk

NEW YORK, Oct. 13-FoI!owins is
the statement of the reasons given by
Commander Robert e. Peary why he
believes that DR.. E. A. Cook did not
reach the North Pole:
The two Eskimo boys, I-Took- a.
Shoe and Ah-Pe-Lah who accom-
panied Dr.. Cock while he was away
from Anoratok in 1908 and 1909, were
questioned separately and independ- :

said that the quite for the remaining
cribed to him by his SON after his re-
turn with DR.. Cook.
Notes of their statements were taken
by several of US and no one Of US has
any doubt that they told the truth. :.
Their testimony was unshaken by
cross examination, was corroborated
by other men in the tribe and was eIic-
tied neither by threats nor promises,
the two boys and their bather, talking
of their journey and their experiences
in the same way that they would talk
of any hunting trip.
To go more into details: One of
the boys who was called in, and, with
chart on the table before him, was
asked to show where he had gone
with DR.. Cook. This he did, pointing
out with his finger on the map, but
not making any marks on it.

PLEASES A LARGE
AUDIENCE HERE

Speaking in an unusual strain and
charming his audience before he had
been on the platform five minutes,
Senator Robert l.. Taylor spoke be-
fore large and enthusiastic audience
last night in the Central Christian
church. Senator Taylor is recogniz-
ed as a true type of the old southern
gentleman and his address was bub-
bling over with the wit and pathos
of the days before the war when
chivalry was then recognized as the
highest virtue a man could have. The
principal theme of his address was
Building Air Castles but frequent
interpretations of negro dialect. sound
instruction and pathos were well
blended.
The speaker not only spoke eloquent
ly. and recounted many charming
stories, but he also sang with tuneful
voice the good old songs of the long
ago, and that for years have been
famed throughout the south land. AT
no time was the distinguished lectur-
er's remarks bordering on the tedious;
they were such as to keep his audience
continually interested, and carried
them from laughter bordering close to
to the land of tears.
Especially was this true when he
initiated in song and story the old ne
gro uncle and mann, of the days be-
fof de wah.'
Senator Taylors address was en-
loved: his auditors spent profitable
evening. and We're entertained in a
manner that was miles away from the
commonplace

reason of this and do not understand
just what significance the farmers
union has on all matters pertaining to
them.
On this occasion, State Organizer

the gathering and effort is also being
made to secure the services Of Mr..
