The Walla Walla nine is now QUILTED
in brand new grey uniforms. They
made their initial appearance before
the public in the new regalia Sunday
afternoon.
The local aggregation is rapidly
rounding into form and with the work
outs which are promised for this week
with the collegians they ought to be
in the running with any of the anna
teur teams in this section in the COM
ing games which are arranged. A
notable improvement in team work
and all around playing was noticeable
in Sundays game with the Mavericks.
THE boys are running bases better,
their fielding is improving, and with
the heavy stickwork which they are
capable of showing, other teams will
have to be there with the goods il

From a freshly killed elephant the

The hole must be red hot and few

ABOUT KIND = :
OF ROADS TO BUILD
Commission in the State of Maryland
Is at Loss TO Know Whether to
Build Less of Better or More
of Poorer Quality.

BALTIMORE, Md, April 27-Ths
cost per mile of the roads to be con-
structed under the state appropriation
of $5,000.000 is now the most import
ant question before the Good Roads
commission.
The problem is whether to build
many miles of cheap roads or fewer
miles of expensive roads. AS the COM
mission is anxious to build good roads.
and as many miles as possible, the
question promises to be a knotty one
The members of the commission
have discussed the question informal
ly, and as yet there does not seem to
be any decided opinion one way or the
other. The commissioners say they
also are studying the suggestions made
to them on this point by interested cit
liens in different parts of the state
There are three kinds of construc-
ton which the commission might
adopt on the general run of the roads
In special instances the situation will
make certain choice imperative but
this is thought to be only a slight per-
centage of the construction work.
ne IHOuCI TOdO VIII cost from
$1,000 to $4,000 a mile and require
800 to $500 a mile annually to main
tain. This kind of road is constructed
according to the latest methods and of
the best materials, and is supposed to
outlive its builders several times over
The cheap roads, which are believed
by some residents of the couties to be
serviceable, can be constructed at a
cost of from $4,000 to $4,000 a mile
and require an annual expenditure of
from $35 to $50 a mile annually. The
material for this road depends upon
the locality, and If good stone is near
by it can be used at low cost. Drainage
and cuts and other engineering work
are restricted by the low expenditure
The third kind of road is the medi-
UNI between the two. This will cost
about $4,000 or $1,000 a mile and re-
quire $50 and 800 each year to main
tain. 1t Is estimated by those in favor

ORA JAY DECLARED
TO BE INELIGIBLE
Young PendIeton Athlete Can't Repre-
sent Washington State University
in Meets.

Ora Jay, the young athlete from the
Pendleton high school, has been de-
clared by the Washington state col
lege authorities to be ineligible to rep
resent that institution in intercolleg-
late meets.
Frank Fletcher, manager of the
Whitman track team, received a COM
munication from Professor Carpenter,
of Pullman, to the effect that Jays
records have been looked up, and it
was found that the young man had
not the credits sufficient to entitle him
to take part in athletics
This action of the w. S. c. faculty
reverses the reports published recent
ly in the Spokane papers, and also in
the State college student organ that
Jay had been declared eligible.
AS it was the evident intention of
the w. S. c.. track management to
enter Jay in the meets with Whitman
and Idaho, the Whitman authorities
secured affidavits from the Pendleton
high school authorities showing that
he did not have the IL Carnegie units
necessary to entitle him to represent
his school under conference rulings.
When the matter was brought to the
attention Of the athletic committee of
the state college, they investigated the
matter, and found that Jay had but
eight units. Hence the young man
will have to wait another year before
taking part in college meets. His loss
will be greatly felt by the state college,
as he is unsurpassed in the pole vault
the high jump and the 120-yard
hurdles.

a topdressing and proper draining and

Williams in Second.

In the second jump Williams sue
ceeded in vaulting this height and
Chapman failed. The first place In the
mole vault was given to Williams, at
the height of 10 feet s, while Chap
man was awarded second place, though
he had already jumped the same height.
The writer is rather of the impression
that this method of deciding the con-
fest is contrary to the recognized pro-
cedure in the jumping events.
In rule in the official Handbook OF
the intercollegiate association govern
ing amateur athletics, it is stated IN
the second section. THAT in case OF a
tie the points shall be divided" AS
both Williams and Chapman vaulted
IN feet 3 the result was surely tie.
T., this case each man should have had
four noints. By chance it also nap
pened that an 0. A. Z. man anu ="

This method of settling the event the

Distance Men Out.

In the distances the university with
Riddell and Davis to depend upon
seems to have a slight advantage Pros
poets looked bright for o. A. G. early
in the year for a strong team in the
distances, but these hopes have been
shattered by sickness and the faculty
rulings. First, Beatty, upon whom much
depended, was taken sick and had to
leave school. Griggs, the freshman VINO
won the mile in the interscholastic
track meet last year, and who has
travelled the four laps in better time
than 4:40, was taken sick and as a
final blow to the long distance men,
Cross, the mainstay of the team and
winner of the cross country champion
ship, is at the present time in bed with
the measles. 1t will be a difficult prob
lem for the Beavers to replace these
men.
In the 40 the university has
strong man in Davis, While the state
college places its dependence in How
ard, who is rapidly rounding into form
and showing splendid class. The high
jump is practically conceded to Chap
man of o. A. c. in this event and thus
far he has indicated equal strength
with the best at the university in the
pole vault. Williams at the Columbia
meet, won at 10 feet s. The judges of
the yaulting then raised the bar to II
feet. at which height both men failed.
The bar was then lowered to 10 feet 8,
the height which both men had pre-
viouSly jumped.

There has recently been attempted at

boiling test that pure cream of tartar
baking powers contain something
which every woman of Intelligence
knows they do not
1t does not need a chemist to expose
this trick Cream Of tartar, which is
the chief constituent of the best and
most wholesome baking powder, is
originally a clear white crystal. This
is ground into fine, creamy -four in

il is present in the baking powder.
Cream of tartar. when mixed with wa
ter and boiled simply returns to it's
crystalline form, and that is all there
is to the so-called test.
The matter Of special interest TO the
public is to know what these people
offer in place of cream OF tartar pow
ders OF well known purity and estab-
Iished reputation against which these
ISLANDERS are directed. They are OFFER
