to tell the glad news and the first
person he met was an Irish acquain-

invited Pat to come in anu see the
little ones. The son Of Erin accepted
and was taken in to gaze upon three
very diminutive piekanlnnies lying side
by side. Pat stood by and looked the
triplets over carefully. They were all
three black and bald and the ordinary
eye could not have discovered any
difference in the trie. However, Pat
shifted bis quid from right to left and

The Spectator has found only one fly
in this almost perfect ointment-the

each year is one of harvest then will
the millennium have come for the

APPLE PLAY WENT
BY THE BOARDS

A young man, who came to Hood
River recently from Chicago, said
that the apple play which was recently
PUT on in that city failed to last very
long. After a brief week it was
retired and probably will not be resur-
rected. The following friendly com
ment gives a small idea of the play;
"Go West Young Woman" now ap-
pearing in Chicago, portrays life in
Wenatchee and Hood River.
1t is attracting quite bit of atten-
ton among Chicago apple dealers at
the Chicago Grand Opera house. The
piece is permeated with the smell of
fruits, and from seeing the perfor-
nance as presented in Chicago, one
can quickly understand how easy it is
to grow a big apple, that is, the
way they do it in the Pacific North
west. A finer example of stage
scenery is not often run across than
the one depicting the valley where
Thomas Latimer, DR., has a ten-acre
ranch given her to attract her to 60
west. Thomas was woman, just the
same, named for her father.)
The keen rivalry existing between
Hood River, Wenatchee and other
sections is obvious in the treatment
of the plot, and there are some brQPt
hints of the extremes resQrted tC
draw first prize at tAe Apple Show.

diately protested against the fixing by

lines in Virginia. because he, himself,
claimed, under the charter from Char

South branch of the Potomac river,
which extends much farther to the
west than the North branch. Suisse
quently the governor of Maryland APP
pointed the commissioners, whose re-
port proved that the first fountain of
the South branch of the Potomac
river was the farthest to the west,
and that a meridian drawn north from
that source would be many miles
west of a meridian drawn from the
head OF the North branch.

ment during school hours. and that all
other children of school age must com
ply with the school law. There has
been a disposition to take advantage
of any feXibility that the law seemed
10 possess for the benefit Of very poor
children who are almost compelled to
work TO help support the family.
superintendent Morton's recommen-
dation that in case Of very bad wealth
er in winter one session of school was
better than two, met with favor.
With regard to admitting children
to the primary grade at any time dur
ing the term superintendent Morton
said he opposed it, and thought a fixed
time for the admission Of such young
children would be better for them and
the schools, fixing the time at the be-
ginning of the term and the beginning
OF the sixth month, February. He
thought the law in regard to age
should be a little flexible. that is, 1t
would not be necessary for a child 10
wait until it's sixth birthday before
entering the school, but might enter
a monh or so sooner.
superintendent Morton wanted more
reading in the schools. He c~ontended
that children grow tired OF stories af-
ter they have read them a few times,
and that as a gap now exists between
the fourth and fifth reader, new read
ers should be supplied the expense OF
which would be comparatively small
TO each pupil.
In the matter Of drawing Superin-
tendent Morton claimed that while ii
was not the intention to make artists
out OF the school children, yet the sys.
TEN has been adopted generally
throughout the country; that children
must be amused in school at least part
of the time or they get tired and list
less, which is another argument in ia.
vor of short school hours for the pri'
mary grade.
AS stated, the recommendations OF
superintendent Morton, embodied in
his report, were all. adopted.

Charleston, w. Va, Feb. 22.-Bar-

politically at this particular time,

Blue will not enter the race for Con

but will likely await the gubernatorial
boom is n Of the recent ~grapevines.
Several months ago some OF those
interested In certain candidates for
the governorship pointed out to Blue
that Congress is the place for him and
then came the word that he would an
nounce soon. A size-up of the Second
district showed that Blue would have
made a powerful opponent for Stur-
giss.
The latter was in trouble. and still
is for that matter, because Of his tard-

for Congress was worked by some to
remove him as a probability for the
g~overnorship there can be little doubt.
But Blue Is said TO have seen through
It and is now to stand for reelection
for the state Senate and then TAKE his
chances when the time comes to pluck
a candidate for Governor.
Sturgiss is awake to the proposition
and is said to have been friendly to
Blue recently. Two postmasters We're
appointed the past week in the county

played in these appointments, If any,
does not appear or the surface.
Whether he will support Sturgiss or

to Congress has not been ANNOUNCED.
But the situation in Barbour is rather

But there was opposition to the ap-

large knives have been seeretd in
the county for use in the coming cam

AN ANCIENT CONTROVERSY.
Maryland Virginia Boundary Dispute
Dates From Colonial Days.

The question at issue was the set
Garrett county, in Maryland, and Pres
ton county, in West Virginia. The
disputed territory lies wholly in Pres
ton county. Had Maryland won her
case the decision would have restored
her a portion of the eastern side of
Preston county, a strip of territory
about one and o~ne-quarter miles in
width and about SO miles long.
The controversy dates from colonial
days, but the present suit was brought
by the State of Maryland under an
act OF the Maryland legislature Of
1890. In which the Attorney General
was directed to take steps 'as speed
lily as possibly" to settle this contro-
versy. During the long lapse OF years
since the action was ordered an end
determination and tracing of a new
meridian line, starting at the Poto-
mac Stone, planted by the surveyor in
charge, Mr.. Brown, in 1897. Potomac
Stone, according to Mr.. Brown, mark
eu Luo WtSuSIlg OuliS " bhC y "a
Branch Of the Potomac river, which
in the last analysis was the point at
issue, according to the Maryland con-
tention, while the Fairfax Stone was
the foundation or West Virginia's
claim. The historic Fairfax stone
was the result of a long dispute be
tween the colony of Virginia and
Thomas Lord Fairfax, Baron of Cam
eron. In 1888 commissioners were
appointed to make a survey of both
the Potomac and the Rappahanock
between which rivers lay the disputed
territory.
In 1746 the line from the head OF
the Rappahannock to the head Of the
North branch of the Potomac, as fixed
by these commissioners, vas located
and the Fairfax Stone was set up at
the point determined upon by them
as the head Of the North branch OF
the Potomac. All this was done, how
ever without the knowledge of Lord
