APOLOGY FOR GIRL
VICTIM OF SNOBBERY
Captain Boyer, Superintendent of
Naval Academy, Thought
Miss Beers a Nurse

ANNAPOLIS, Md, April 29,--Capt.
J. NJ Bowyer, superintendent of the
naval academy, today forwarded to
Miss Mary II. Beers, daughter of the
prominent English scholar and edu-
Gator, formerly a member of the fac
ulty of Yale university, a complete
apology for the action of a member of
the discipline department., who sus-
gestcd to a midsllipman who had been
the escort OF Miss Beers to a dance,
that She was not suitable person to
bring to social function, owing to
the position she held in the family of
an officer in the academy.
1t was said at the academy that the
text of the letter would not be given
out by the superintendent, and that
making it public would rest with Prof.
Beers and Miss Beers. 1t is under
stood, however, that the position is
taken that the incident happened ow-
ing to a complete misunderstanding
of Miss Beers position in the family
of Lieutenant Commander, Tarrant.
The officer who advised the midship-
man understood that she was en-
ployed as a nurse, whereas Miss Beers
was the companion of Mrs. Tarrant
and the governess Of her children.
The apology was offered as a result
of communications between Secretary
of the Navy Meyer and Supt. Bower,
the latter volunteering to send the
letter of apology when the facts in
the case were reported to him. The
midshipmen to man were outraged
at the reflection upon Miss Beers and
also upon the midshipman who was
her escort -

Twenty four eight months old

months, thereby cclipsing the record
made in New York. where a prize
of $4,000 was awarded recently to

each the last 80 days. Eugene w.
Sims, a resident of Standpoint, also
claims a record for his dock of 81
hens which laid AS eggs in March.
Poultry raising is rapidly becoming
an important industry in northern
Idaho and eastern Washington and
other parts of the Inland Empire.
where the output amounted to So
600, 900 in 1910, in addition to which
it is estimated that more than S.

Grading work is in progress at
Yakima City at the site of the pro-

Naviga ton company's station building
there, directly opposite the Northern
Pacific station. 1t is the intention OF
the Q. w r. q y. people to build
there, and at once. The situation at
Yakima City is peculiar. In order to
get access to the town from the sta
ton of the new railroad it is neces-
sary to have right of way for a
street across the right of way of the
Northern Pacific railway This has
been asked for. and while not refused,
has not been granted. The request, to
date, has simply been ignored.
Peculiar situation.
Some time ago the Herald pointed
out that the Northern Pacific prop
erty at Yakima City was given to 1t
by Captain Thomas. who still holds
over half the city property at Yakima
City. He also built and turned over,
paying for it himself, the Northern
Pacific station now in use at Yakima
City. Captain Thomas has personally
asked from the railway company the
right to extend Pine street another
200 feet so that it may be continued
to the o. w. r. & \. station. In
other words he has asked for pub
lie right of way across property form
erly owned by him and given. without
return of any sort. by him to the rail-
way company. This is the request
that has been ignored.
