MAN WITH BIG CIRCUS PIC
TURES HITS WALLA WALLA
Car No. of Norris G. Rowe Shows
Billing the City-Boards Present
Gay Outlook

Car No. of the Greater Norris &
RoWe's shows arrived in the city yes
terday and gave the billboards a few
extra touches of color just as re-
minder that next Saturday is the first
circus day of the year. The Elks are
coming along fine with their end of
the show and all the places in the
parade have been satisfactorily filled
except those in the camel parade. SO
far every member of the local lodge
has steadfastly refused to undertake
any desert stunts on a hot day. The
management, however, is resting easy
along this line, as large delega-
ton of the antlered nerd is coming
from Pasco, among which, it is ru-
mored, there are a number who have
become so we'll acclimated to the
burning sands of the Columbia that
they can turn the trick nicely.
Bert Gregg, the star press agent, an
nounced yesterday that the big eXcur-
sion train will be run from Dayton
on circus day and that special car ser
vice will be maintained on the inter-
urban line between this city and Mil
ton.
The Honey Mora troupe of aerial
bar performers with the Greater Nor
ris & Rowe circus, museum, mena-
gerie, hipp0drome and congress of ma
tons which will exhibit in this city
next Saturday afternoon and night are
another troupe of American perform
ers who have won recognition for
their art, in the capitals of Europe.
This troupe was engaged by the spe-
cial European agent of the big circus
combine for this seasons tour of the
big circus, and during the run of six
ty performances of the show in San
Francisco this spring 279,S73 persons
paid admission to the big show. Their
work is done at an elevation of sixty
feet in the air, and their triple and
double somersaults send the blood
coursing through the veins of the
spectators 1t is a graceful act as
we'll as being highly sensational and
daring.
The new big street parade will be
given every morning at 10 O'Clock, at
which time the 200 performers with
the circus will be seen.

"MIxED PICKLES."

No hesitancy is evidenced by the
management Of the Curtiss company in
making the statement that MIXED
Pickles" the comedy which will be
produced at the KeylOr Grand theater
tomorrow "wednesday night, is one of
the funniest and most laughable COM
edies Imaginable. In MIXED Pickles"
there are two brothers, Arthur and
Joe Pickle The former is a staid and
solemn minister and the other about as
different from his brother as a reck
less. easy going college boy could be.
In the progress of the play two broth
rs became mixed decidedly and the re-
suit Of this conglomeration, the fun
of which is frightened by a pious lady
who believes explicitly in the minister
and his teachings and who has hus-
band whose ideas oppose those of
prohihitiOniSt and a daughter who Is
expected according to the mothers
wishes, to marry the minister, leads up
to many humorous situations and eli
makes There is also an old maid and
a deacon with inclinatiOns On a sneak
ing nature who figures prominently in
the piece.
The performance of MIXED Pickles
will be preceded by dramatic sketch
entitled The Money Spider" adapted
and drama tized by Miss Leota Howard.
Chic Kehoe and the sketch team OF
Walters & Murray will render special
ties between acts.
Mixed Pickles will be produced
Wednesday evening at the Keylor
Grand theater by the Curtiss Comedy

Anniversary of Newmarket.

CHICAGO, May 4.-The Haymarket
riot occurred in this city May 4, 1885,
and citizens recall it's anniversary
with dread. AS a result of the terri
BILE event six policemen were killed
and 81 wounded. The entire death
list of the crowd was never known.
The riot followed a long period of
unrest, because of lack of work and
the circulation of incendiary anar-
chstic propa ganda. AS result of the
riot there was a campaign made
against the anarchists of Chicago and
many of their meeting places were
wiped out.

new CODE GOVERNS
EXAMINATIONS NOW
First Three Days of Next Week Will
be Held Examinations for Those
Who Would be Teachers In
WaEa WaIla County.

State and county teachers examin-
ations for diplomas will be held in
this city Monday. Tuesday and We'd
nesday, May 10, II, and II, preceding
the examinations for common school
certificates. County Superintendent of

Of pupils May 20 and 81.
Change in Examinations
The May examination in school law
will be based entirely upon the present
code of public instruction. Under
the new code of public instruction the
examination in school law and state
constitution will be superseded by an
examination in what is known as "the
Washington state manual in accor-
dance with the recommendation of the
code commission.
This manual under the provisions of
the law, will include brief history
of the state, portions of the school
law, an outline of the constitution
and map of the state. 1t has long
seemed to the superintendent of pub
lie instruction that the examination in
school law and constitution of this
state was unnecessary hardship upon
teachers, as there are large portions
of no 10 WI 11n y-ily

ment of the school,
Life Diplomas.
Eary next month there is to be
special meeting of the state board of
education, prior to the time that the
new code of public instruction goes
into effect. Under the present law
graduates of the Washington state
normal schools are granted life di
plomas upon IS months successful
teaching subsequent to graduation "
Pne new code extends the time to "a
months, but removes the limitation
that such teaching must be subse-
quent to graduation. Those who de-
sire to apply for life diplomas or
state certificates under the provisions

Hearing Mrs. Yerkes' Case.

NEW YORK, May AIRS. Yerkes
has lost her case in Chicago, and in a
second effort to recover the mansion
brought it up in New York, and Judge
Cohalan is hearing it today.
Mrs. Yerkes' claim to the mansion
Is based on a bill of sale which she
got from her husbands safe just be-
fore ne died. She declares that she
conveyed the property to him years
before on condition that certain pro-
visions be made in his will The pro-
visions, she says were not made, and
she seized the bill of sale to prove her
claim. Judge Ward said that her
claim ceased in 1903

Miss Myrtle Elvyn, who will appear
at the Keylor Grand Saturday after
noon with the Chicago Symphony or
chestra, is a pianist who has met with
great success wherever she has

members of therOyal family and was

tile monarch and presented with
handsome decoration. She has played
before the Grand Duke and Duchess
