High Plays "Y"
Idaho Game off

Owing to the fact that the numer-
Gus washouts have prevented the
basketball team from the University
of Idaho reaching this city to play
tonight. the game between that team
and the "Y'' has been cancelled and
instead the Y. M. G.. A. five will play
the high school. on the floor of the Y
M. C. A. gym Whether the Mos
COW team will reach here to play to-
morrow night with Whitman, is not
known. They have telegraphed to
cancel but Manager Davenny of the
college team is hopeful that they can
event the games will be played later
this season.
The game between the high school
and the Y. M. c. A. will be a fast one.
High school showed wonderfully well
against the Pendleton high last Fri
day night, simply wiping the floor with
them Y. M. G.. A. also beat the Pen
dleton team. but not by as large a
score. But the comparative scores
cannot be taken as an indication of the
strength of the two teams. High
school will play hard and fast. They
are a clever bunch but play short toss
basketball. Y. NJ c. A. has a better
style of play and should win on this
alone
Tom Steel, member of both teams,
viii play center with high school, He
will be a tower of strength for his
team and should they win, the victory
can be in q great measure accredited
to him. He will not play unsupported,
however as he has four fast men be-
hind him. Blackman and Gross, for
wards, are accurate, speedy and play
all the time Jones and Crawford, at
guard, are close watchers of their men
and can be depended upon to keep the
score down
The 'Y'' will play Penthouse at CEN
ter. with Crecelius, Glafke and Unser
at forward positions. Thorn and AL
len will play guards. This is a strong
lineup and should be hard for the
high school to handle. TIE game is
called at 8 o'clock with Coach RIap-
chard of Whitman. as referee.

CAPTAIN BURREU
IS VISITOR HERR

Captain Charles Bureau, of Okano-
gan, an old time steamboat captain
and an early pioneer of this country,
is visiting in the city with friends a
few days.
Captain Bureau came to Portland
% years ago and began as purser on
one of the steamboats, plying on the
river. From this position he worked
up to be captain and has since that
time been engaged in the steamboat
business and now owns two boats in
the Okanogan country. He is in this
part of the state looking after steam
boat interests on the Columbia.
Il am going to stay little while in
this city," says Captain Bureau, "for
this is the first outing 1 have had for
% years, since 1 first went into the
boat business"

CLEVER PLAN
TO PAY FOR
THE NEW SIGN

Woe be to the first unluclly vic
tim of an assault and battery case,
petty larceny, or other like crime,
when he comes into the justice court.
For there is absolutely no chance of
the victim escaping for less than $2.75,
the price of the new sign the justice of
the peace has on his door.
'T. NJ Mckinney. justice of the
peace" and IN. O. Peterson, con-
STABLE in big gold letters, ''as big
the constable explains las the
door would stand,' are blazing
their glory forth into the hall OF the
court house today. And the sign is not
paid for, at least that is what is said
by Herring, of course.
So the justice openly brags that the
first wrongdoer he has a chance to
soak viii get it to the tune of the
new sign. The sign must be paid for.

In sending out notice of examination
to be held in Seattle, January % ard
26 at the university of Washington by
the Washington State Board of Phar-
macy, p. Jensen, secretary of the board
takes occasion TO give warning to
druggists who have not obtained the
required license.
Numerous complaints have been
filed with the board" he says, that
drug stores are filed with non-regist-
cred men. This condition should not be
tolerated. After the meeting of the
board, all offenders will be prosecuted
swiftly and to finish"
AS there are said to be about fifty
persons, few of them women, en-
gagged in filing prescriptions in Sc

shakeup among drug clerks after the
examinations are held. After that time
there will not be any excuse for drug
gists not to have licenses.

Last Night

With the barometer at 2S.03 this
morning, it is lower than ever before
in the history of Walla WalIa's Wea-
Their; and accordingly Weather OBJ
server Grover predicts an end of the
fine weather of today. The other low
record was on March 10, 1904, when
but PISS inches were recorded.
Last night the wind blew at the
rate of 40 miles an hour, better than it
has done since early in January last
year Then the mercury in the baro-
meter took a sudden drop and the re-
cording needle almost went off the
bottom of the graduated sheet
The storm that will result WILL in
alb probabilities be rain and wind. and
the thermometer will probably drop a
few degrees. All along the coast heavy
rains were marked yesterday and by
tomorrow Walla Walla will probably
get her share of moisture

Given his Dinner
He Steals Razor

That's gratitude.
Yesterday afternoon a man called al
the home of H. E. Croft, Alt East Rose
street and asked that he might be Civ
en- a little work to earn some food. He
said he had no money and was very
hungry. He claimed that he could fine
no work at ALL All four fingers of his
left hand were gone, and this, Il
said, made people refuse to give him
work
He was given some wood to chop
Z after that was invited in the
house, where he was told to use the
bath room to clean up; after which he
with all relish apparently and left as
soon as he had finished eating.
After he had gone, a razor belong
ing to Mr.. Croft was discovered miss
ing and a report was made of the theft
to the police, who soon located the ra-
zor in the Burroughs second hand
store. The man who sold it tailed
with descriptions turned in to the Off
GERS This afternoon the man was 10
Gated by Patrolman Rolf, who nabbed
him and took him to headquarters,
where he gave his name as w. T. Rice
The work of searching him did not
bother him in the least and his actions
are those of one familiar with the
process. He admitted the theft and
said he sold the razor for 80 cents. He
is in the city jail awaiting trial.
