Commissioners Would Like to
Have Him as Infirmary
Superintendent.
REPORT IS NOT VERIFIED
eRUMFIELD, WHO IS A WELL
KNOWN FARMER REFUSED TO
AFFIRM OR DENY THE REPORT
WHEN HE WAS ASKED.

E. N. Brumfield, q farmer living on
the Arlington pike, south of the city
has been rendered the position of su
perintendent Of the county infirmary
by the county commissioners. It is
understood that he has accepted the
position, but he refused to commit
himself this morning when talking
over the telephone.
The board Of county commissioners
was in session yesterday. The men,
bers admitted that they were consider
ing the selection of a superintendent
of the infirmary, but declared that the
appointment would not be announced
for several days. They expected to
have the vacancy filled by September
/, although it Is more probable that
Mr.. Brumfleld will take personal
charge several days before this. The
board has determined not to ask for
applicants. but to make its own ap.
pointmept. This practice was followed
in the selection OF Mr.. Meek and the
board never had more satisfactory
superintendent.
The board Is Of the opinion that the
best qualified men for the position
do not seek the place but have to be
approached on the. proposition.
Mr.. Brumneld is = well known farm
er and has always prospered. 1t ID
believed that he has the proper quail
ications to make an able successor to

After her removal from the county
jail the Jail officers found much stale
food In her cell. They learned that her
sisters. Mrs. Caroline B. Martin and
Mrs. Mary w. Sneal, had never eaten
their food until "a hours after they
received it, but this was only eccentric

SET FUDGE ON HIGH
TIE STANDARD OF CIVILIZATION
HAS BEEN SET.
Feminlnity In Absolute Accord on
the subject-lnventor Merits More
Approval Than She Has Yet
Been Accorded.

At last a standard Of civilization-ot
feminine civilization-has been set. ac-
lcording to the Cleveland Leader.
The masculine one has not as yet
been reached, and the difficulty OF ar
irving at a general standard Is at once
apparent.
With femininity. however. there was
little or no trouble. The sex unites
upon a single test. That made, the
examination is passed with honors.
The case of the Misses Chang, whose
father is the new Chinese minister to-
the United States. is most pertinent

erness, who has had wide expert
ence with outside barbarians. these
young Chinese girls are the most In

fudge, but they are experts in its man.

Nothing more is needed to admit
them to equality. social. moral. reli-

Of this nation. They have become
Americanized in the biggest sense Of
the word. And they will stand In the
very first rank Of feminine civilization.

proyal to show the heavenly qualities
Of fudge 1t Is the most popular
course in every feminine boarding
school or college. and while not off,
cially recognized in the curricula OF
public schools. it is there just the
same.
History knows that Dolly Madison
invented ice cream. and n grateful
world talks Of raising n statue to her.
But all that Is known Of the discov-
erer OF fudge Is the slight fact that
she was Vassar college girl and that
she hit upon the delicious compound.
like SO many other inventions OF great
moment to the world have been made.
in a casual way.
From another point Of view her
discovery is unique. improvements
the basic idea has been expanded and
developed. But the original fudge Is
still the best OF all. though there have
been countless variants Of 1t.
To n mere man 1t seems that there
is an unconscious ingratitude on the
part OF fudge lovers. not at all con.
sistent with the big.hearted apprecia.

should be concerted action to discover
the girl who invented tho deiicacy.
and to reward her rs she deserves. 1t

the other plans which women are agi'

And as n slight beginning. Ms an

acted at Palouss Sunday.

Lester Blaine, a farmer whose home is
three miles south of PalOuse. is held in
the county lsil for the murder OF James
Sylvey, who had charge of several pump
ing stations along the line of the North
ern Pacific railroad in this county. The
shooting occurred Sunday on the depot
platform at PalOuse and was the out
come of SyIvey's expressed objection to
his minor son, aged 16, being given
liquor by Blaine, who had two bottles OF
whiskey, one of which he deposited in
the baggage room, where the boy
worked and had access to it. After ad-
monishing Blaine not to repeat the
offense Sylvey took the bottle and threw
it, breaking it on the rail. He then
turned to walk back to the depot when
Blaine drew a revolver and shot him,
the bullet entering the lower part of the
stomach. Blaine was arrested and
brought to Colfax and Sylvey was taken
to the hospital, where be died the next
day. Sylvey was about 40 years of age
