THAN ONE
WALLA WALLA

1t has just been discovered in this
city that Walla Walla, Washington,
is not the only town bearing that
name, the official directory contain
ing a list of international telegraph
offices containing the station, Wal
Walla, New South Wales" Another
station in Australia is designated as
''Wallan Walian." The existence Of
the cities bearing a name so similar
was known to but few residents of
this section, and was determined to-
day when the new telegraph directory
was received in local telegraph Off
ces. People here are wholly at loss
to account for the use of the Indian
name in the old world, but assume that
some of the Indians from this section
wandered from their native haunts,
and started new colony across, the
water. -.
