1t might be we'll for the citi-
zens who are interested in the
matter of the power plant war
rant proposition to be ON hand
tomorrow afternoon at the meet
ing of the judiciary committee
when the matter will be taken up
again. 80
The council, acting in response
to the expressed wishes of the
people, last Wednesday night laid
the ordinance over to have it
amended so that the city shall pay
$150,000 beginning in 1913, and
that after 10 years it shall be
privileged to pay off the entire
debt as fast as it wishes.
Judge stiles had a conference
with councilman Giblett this
morning on the matter, and he OBJ
jects to this plan. lie says it can
not be done that way.
Stiles will be before the COM
mittee tomorrow and will prob
ably make a plea for the original
plan of long time 25-year interest

Looking like great big Cana
dian soldier" or lake fly, Charles
K. Hamilton swept over the city
yesterday in his Curtiss bi-plane
and indicated Darius Green. Cor
he showed that neither the SPAR
row nor phoebe is any smarter
than he be.
Darius was a little short on mo-
tive power but otherwise he was
all right. Hamilton had some of
the same trouble Saturday. Some
5000 or 10000 people gathered
in and around the ball park Sat
urday to see him go but the mo-
tor would not work. Half doz-
en- -machinists tinkered with the
engine for three hours but it
would not go.
After waiting all afternoon the
crowd went home.
Engine Works Perfectly.
They came back yesterday,
however, and in the meantime the
machinists had discovered the dif-
ficulty and remedied it. The nag
neto on the engine was soaked in
the Seattle lake collapse and it re-
fused to work right. A new armi-
ture was put in and the old engine
began humping like clockwork.
There was hardly a skip yester-
day. The sun came out, there
was not a breath of air and every
thing was ideal for a fine "fy."
Boys Get Scare.
Hamilton got ON the machine
and the engine was started. 1t
headed for an open space in the
ball park fence which had been
torn away on the west side. A
couple of hundred small boys
were taking in the show. The
big bi-plane shot right for them.

WASHINGTON, D. c.. March
21.-Uncle Sam will try to apply
trading stamps to the banking
business when the postal savings
bank bill becomes law. The
village postmaster will find him
self a banker, then, whether he
likes it or not.
The postal savings bank bill has
passed the senate and will pass
the house. The present quarrels
whichthe statesmen are having
over this bill all relate to what
they want done with the money
after it is deposited, with the post
office banks. To be sure the

1t is not unlikely that action

switching cars with the old coup

street. Detective Brady disguis-
ed as a building inspector gained
an entrance to the house and it
was found to contain dozens If
pieces of alleged stolen furniture
that the police have been looking
for.
Some of the furniture was iden-
tilted as that belonging to DR.. C.
d. Rust, who, while away last
May. lost over 500 worth from
his residence on Yakima avenue.
The thieves at that time used a
wagon to cart the goods away.
Fitch lives near the Plymouth
Congre gational church from
which a number of things were
stolen last November, and the pu-
lice are today investigating this.
Fitch, according to the police,
late this afternoon confessed to Il
number of furniture thefts and
told how he succeeded in getting
away with the loot. Fitch is
married man and his wife is heart
broken over his arrest.

against the exhibition in the cities of
this state and particularly in New

of Chief Justice SwanZy of New Jer-
sey to the effect that there was
already law enough for the suppress
sion of the pictures.
Resolutions of the United Christian

submitted to the governor in protest
and the Rev. DR.. Wynans OF the re-
