Spokane. Wash, Jan. al. J. Browne.
Of Spokane head Of a chain o. banks in
Eastern Washington and Northern Idaho,
IS advocating a plan 10 have the state
Of Washington acquire . tract OF land O.
six square miles on Puget Sound for the
purpose Of establishing q capital city.
ranking with the foremost IN the world
Broad boulevards, parks, and gardens
and sites FOR the Statehouse. hospitals,
soldiers home, and the other institu-
tons are provided for 81 the plans.
Gov Albert E Mead and others promi-
neHt in the affairs Of the Commonwealth
look with favor upon the project and
VIII urge the incoming legislature 10
adopt 1t. ". Browne said in discussing
the plan
My idea is first 10 lay out a bsauti-
fUl city. There never was in this country
but one city which was laid out in ad-
vance Of its building, and thac is Wash
ington, D. G. The ether cities Of the
country are only The growth Of the orig
inal settlements
Would Build on Puget sound
MY own preference for the capital is
OF Puget Sound. where we could have 1t
least three miles Of water front. I would
/ have the parks laid cut by eminent land
scape artists, and the bouIevsrds lined
with trees like those Of washington
The work Of having ont and beautify-
ing the city should be- practically com
pleted before il would be necessary 10
establish any q the State institutions
therein In building new institutions %
take the place OF those now established
al other points. I would build Tor al
time, not for one generation. nor for half
3 century, but for thousands Of years.
Would Pay Cost of Construction.
I I am firmly convinced that By the time
a new capital building is needed suf5-
/ cient lands could be sold within the then
beautihed city 70 pay the cost OF con-
+ struction, even though We built as We
should build. a capital which VIII cost
several million dollars believe also that
as other state buildings are needed lands
within the city can he sold 10 paw the
/ cost OF their construction
/ y have only giTcl an outline Of nv
{ plans. / intend to present them al length
/ 10 members OF the state legislature and
{ 20 prominent citizens Of Washington on
/ my return from mp East Washing
/ ton IS a great State. Il should have 2
: fine capital and fine public institutions
I Of every nature. I believe that the plan
10 have them al in one city viii meet

WEALTHY TOURIST
ENDS HIS LIFE
CFrOm Mondays Advertiser,

WAY, unaware Lnat death hNu invaded
the chamber, lay the stark form Of
Ssarr Hoyt Nichols, wealthy tourist
OF New York, in his room at the Royal
Hawaiian Hotel on Saturday night, the
discovery being made by the hotel
clerk shortly after midnight yesterday
morning. Death was self-inflicted, for
beside the body was large bottle
which had contained chloroform, half
Of which had been used by the de-
ceased to insure a speedy end 20 his
life.
A couple of months ago Mr.. Nichols
arrived her from the mainland, and
took apartments at the Hawaiian lie
was accompanied by an attendant, a
young man named Leo Namais. Mr..
Nichols seemed TO be sufferer from
insomnia, and among the various drugs
he took to promote sleep was chloro-
form. On arrival here he placed him
self under the care of DR.. Collins, and
to the latter he showed the large bot
tie of chloroform. The doctor took
care to get the bottle away from him,
and whenever the patient required
chloroform the attendant obtained a
dose from smaller bottle.
On Sunday afternoon Mr.. Nichols
told his man that he could take the
afternoon Off if he wished. The old

BRACE BANDITS
PLUMBER CAR
Hold Up Denver & Rio Crande
Train in Vicinity Of
Fort Logan.
|NT|M|DATE THE TRA|NMEN
Fusillade of Shots Had Effect Of Keep
ing Passengers and Grew Inside
Coaches-Robbers Made
Their Escape.

Denver, Colo, Feb, 1.-Two
bandits suddenly appeared from a
coal tender early Saturday morning
in the vicinity of Fort Logan and
compelled the engineer and fireman
of a Denver and Rio Grande passen-
ger train to stop the train.
The bandits took the two men
from the engine cab and fired a
number of shots alongside the
coaches to intimidate the passengers
and train crew.
The conductor appeared on the
scene asking what the matter was,
and one of the bandits fired at him
three times before he escaped, He
was not hit.
With the two prisoners the train
robbers. one of whom is described
as large man and the other as a
small man, then went to the door of
the mail car and compelled the fire.
man to call out to the mail clerks to
open the door.
There were two clerks in the car
and they were lined up beside the
engineer while one of the robbers
forced the fireman to help him put
three sacks of registered mail into
one large mail sack. ms ne threw
out of the car.
The robbers then marched the
prisoners couple of blocks ahead
of the train and then told them to
return.
The bandits made good their es-
cape in the direction of Fort Logan
but it is believed they really made
their way to Denver.
The estimated amount obtained
by the robbers varies and the infor-
nation on this point is meager. Both
of the clerks agree that only the
registered mail was taken but they
have no idea of the value of it. One
package taken is said to have con-
tanned currency from salt Lake
bank and this amount is estimated
at from S. 900 to $4,000.

TREES FOR CAPITOL GROUNDS
The Commercial Secretaries Of Texas
Have Taken Up Matter.

Austin. Texas, Feb. 15-The
state capitol grounds and portion
of the grounds of the state universi-
ty will be beautified and adorned
before the close of the present
month, if the plans of the CONNER
cial Secretaries association, which
now has headquarters III Austin,
does not go awry. The plan, recently
evolved by the association, is to col
lect and replant at Austin every va
riety of shade and forest trees that
the broad land of Texas produces or
that thrives in the bosom of Mother
Earth within the confines of the
Lone Star State.
The planting will serve the dou-
BILE purpose of adding materially to
the attractiveness of the capitol
grounds and the grounds of the uni
versity and at the same time will re-
suit in bringing together in one spot
every variety of shade and forest
tree in Texas so that visitors may
see and realize the numerous kinds
Of trees that are Indigenous to Texas
soil and climate.
The work of collecting the trees
is by no means small one and Will
require considerable time and labor
Letters have been sent by the secre-
taries association to number of the
most prominent nurserymen in each
section of the state, asking them to
cooperate with the association in Sc
curing every variety of tree. In TINS
manner the secretaries hope to get
specimen of each species that
grows in Texas
The planting will take place on
Feb. 25 and will be characterized by
appropriate exercises. They will be
held in the assembly room of the
railroad commission on the second
floor of the capitol building. A mum
ber of prominent men will deliver
brief addresses and short musical
program will be given. Among the
speakers will be Dr. Garrison and
Prof. Heald of the State university
Mrs. Rebecca r. Fischer, state presi.
dent OF the Daughters of the Repub-
lie, w. c. Day, state superintendent
of public grounds and buildings;
Sam H. Dixon, state nursery inspec-
tor and others.
