Mrs. T. II. Hill Drives Two Hoboes
from Her House at Point of
Pistol

Two hoboes entered the residence
of Mr.. and Mrs. T. Fl. Hill, 513 East

Mrs. Hill was in the house alone,
and, forcing their way into the sitting
room, sat down. Mrs. Hill protested
against their coming in, and ordered
them out after they had seated them.
selves, but they paid no attention.
Mrs. Hill then slipped out of the
back door, and into Mr.. Hills office,
adjoining and telephoned the police
department. Securing a revolver, she
returned to the sitting room and
pointing the gun ordered the men
out, and they went. AS Mrs. Hill
pointed the pistol, her Maltese cat
jumped on her back and peered at
the men over her shoulder, to which
fact the lady largely attributes their
leaving.
On Tuesday the police arrested
Martin Daily on suspicion of being
one of the men and Mrs. Hill positive
ly identified him as one of her visi-
tors. Daily is in the city JAIL and
will have a hearing before Judge
Phillips today.
Yesterday Daily was recognized
by Will Leighton, of Hoquiam, as
one of two men who held him up and
robbed him the same night they visit.

Speaking of the growing scarcity

During the past few years the sup
ply of many of the harwoods used for
interior finish has been growing less
and the price higher, and this has
afforded the opportunity and the nee
essity for testing the the value OF
other woods for this purpose. Fir is
one of them that has made good, and
for both public buildings and private
residences it is being more and more
sought after. The idea that it could
be used for the purpose probably orig
mated in the fact that it has pro-
nounced grain which, by selection,
can be adapted to interior finish. In
addition to this it has been demon
strated that by modern processes the

CONTRACT FOR COMPLETION
APRIL 1. N. P. TO USE HARRl-
MAN BRIDGE OVER CHEHAllS
RIVER. A UNION DEPOT FOR
ABERDEEN.

The air is filled with rumors of
railroad developn. ent on Grays Har-
Dor in the near future. Reports said
to be well founded are that the North
ern Pacific Railway company has
made arrangements with the Union
Pacific company to bring it's passeng-
err trains by way of the Chehalis river
and over the new bridge now build
ing. By this arrangement the North
ern Pacific would use its present
tract from Junction City to Aberdeen
only for freight business.
With this change it is thought
highly probable that the Northern
Pacific will move it's bridge over the
Chehalis river to a point above Cos
mopolis, thus placing that important
shipping point on the main line in
stead of the stub from Junction City,
although rumor is to the effect that
the N. P. has arranged with the Har-
riman lines to use the tracks of the
tier from Gate to Grays Harbor. AS
g b would mean the practical aband-
ent of the north side of the Che
/ valley, it does appear worthy

The estimated cost of the new
courthouse and Jail at MOntesanO,
placed by the Herald at 100000, is
said to be too high by those who
have not closely followed the various
contracts let on the buildings, but
the fact is that the expenditure OF
Chehalis county money for courthouse
purposes will greatly exceed that
sum. Note the work so far done or
contracted for
The original contract for construc-
ton awarded Sylliadsen & Sands was
for $134,431, which did not include
the plumbing, heating, decorating,
wiring or lighting These items to-
gether with some changes in plans
have run up the price of this build
ing so far to $161, 1,460.60
The Jail contract for construction
was for $55,550, not including plumb
ing, heating or lighting, and has al
ready run up to $4,000 and the wir-
ing and lighting is yet to be let. A
change in the boiler room of the
courthouse cost 1,450 and an altera-
ton in the steel doors added $1,S0O,
Architects Vernon's contract calls
for 5 per cent of the total cost, and a
superintendent is on the job at $5

MRS, PLUMMER
RIPS POLICE

In Justice Hydes court yesterday
afternoon Mrs. Agnes Plummer was
acquitted by jury after few min
utes deliberation of the charge OF
running a disorderly house at her
home on Twenty sixth avenue, in
Mantle Park.
In connection with the arrest and
prosecution, Mrs. Plummer makes
serious charges against the police.
She says that the police were used
as tools OF certain citizens of Spo-
kane high up in the good graces of
the city administration to cause her
trouble; that she was urged to for
felt her bond and not to appear for
trial, with the assurance that she
would be convicted: that one of the
women arrested at her house was
intimidated into leaving town and
the other into forfeiting her bond
by the assurance by city detectives
that they would be convicted and
had no show.
Mrs. Plummer has retained coun-
sci and will bring suit against the
city and the police department for
false arrest, malicious prosecution
and persecution.

CHIEF STILL REFUSES
TO REMOVE OFFICERS

Acting Chief of Police John Sulli-
van will take no action toward the
dismissal of Officers Hood and
Glider from the police department,
without confession of immoral
conduct from Rose Elliott, the wom-
an in the case. This is according
to a statement given out by Chief
Sullivan to a reporter this morning.
81 made a thorough investigation
of the charges against Glider when
they were first made and l laid
the findings from that investigation
before Police Commissioner Tuerke,
but, because of Rose Elliott's denial
of any immortality having existed
between herself and the officers
under fire, We both concluded that
the charges were not sufficiently sus-
tained to warrant the officers dis
missal from the department" Sui
Ivan said this morning.
81 had Rose Elliott before me
within 20 minutes after the first
report Of alleged bad conduct be-
tween herself and Glider was made
to me, but all manner of examin-
alton failed to bring confession
of the charges from her | called

COATES ENDORSES

In regard to the suggestion of a
citizens investigation into the FL
lott case and police conditions in
general, d. C. Coates, chairman Of
the committee of fifteen of the
Central Labor council, appointed
to take charge of the campaign for
police matrons, today said:
81 am heartily in favor of this
plan, as it has already met with
the approval of the trades council.
We started out in the beginning to
have an investigation by disinter-
ested parties, and I still believe
this ought to be done.
"The findings of the mayors po-
lice investigation confirm the
stand of the Womans club and the
labor unions. The committee, after
hearing only the police side of the
controversy, and examining only
witnesses under the domination of
the police, find that matrons are
necessary. This is an admission
that fully substantiates all that
those asking for matrons have con-
tended from the beginning.
There should be no let up in
the investigation of police condi-
tons until the whole matter is sift-
ed to the bottom, and l will do
everything within my power to aid
in the work"

The latest development is the
fact that affidavits that appraise-
ments of land purchased by the
