The series of memorial stones begin
at the 30-foot level and continue up
to the 2S0.foot level In all there are
179 of these stones, all containing
tributes to the memory of Washington,

beauty, elaborate carving or origin.

historic stone could be obtained.

AZ its recent annual meeting on Feb.

to the States Of Washington, Idaho, coi-

stones and on the theory that New
Mexico and Arizona will be soon ad-

also sent to those Territories.
The Washington National Monument
Society, under act of congress, is an adj

Forty States and sixteen cities are
represented in the tablets, fifteen Ma

ONE CHARGE DROPPED
IN THE sCHARL1N CASE

In the police court yesterday the
charge of selling a poisonous drug with
out having a license to do SO was
dropped against N. scharlin, whose ar
rest was made shortly after the steam
ship Lurline arrived here bringing
freight consigned to him, in which ITO
tins of opium we're found by the fed
eral authorities.
The case against him was dropped at
the suggestion of the city attorneys
department, a nolle prosequi being en-
tered, but it is understood that Schar-
lin viii be implicated with others ie
San Francisco under a charge of yio-
lating a customs law. This charge viii
probably be perjury, as the tins of
opium were not included in the mani
fest, which carried only such items as
dry goods, shoes and such.
United States District Attorney
Breekons states that the perjury charge
may be brought shortly. The main rea-
son yesterdays case was not pressed
was because the Chinese witnesses had
suffered a lapse Of memory since the
arrest.
