Coos to him, like turtle dove.

When the mating bird appears
Knows it's time to take q tonic
Sends for golden grain belt peers.

! COAL LANDS
ARE BEING INSPECTED TO SET.
TILE THE QUESTION OF EX
TENDING a RAILROAD.

BALTIMORE, Aug. lon the re
suit OF examinations being made by
expert engineers to ascertain the
quality Of the product found in those
localities, will depend whether The
Western Maryland Railway Company
construct an extenslon'to tap the vast
coal lands in Fayette and Preston
counties, situated in the State Of
Pennsylvania and West Virginia, re.
spectlyely.
The reports so far received from
the engineers, 1t is understood, have
been rather encouraging, and there Ii
q strong possibility that a decision
will be finally reached by the inter.
ests behind the Western Maryland to
tap the 100000 or more acres OF coal
lands located in the two counties.
From an authentic source It Is
learned that in this vast tract OF land
there are something over 1000, 900, 900
tons Of coal of all qualities. The en-.
glneers who have been conducting
their examinations for months decl ,re
that a large part OF this land contains
coal Of a good quality, and which
could be easily marketed.

Palouse Saloons Close.

Palouse, Wash, Jan. 2.-COnfOrm-
ing to the will of the voters of this
city, the saloons closed their doors to
the public at midnight Saturday.
Most of them had comparatively
small stocks of goods on hand, be-
cause of the great reduction in their
closing out sales. A great deal of
liquor has gone to the logging dis
tricts east of the city, where a guam
tity has presumably been stored for
future use.
There were eight saloons in the
city, each paying a license fee of
$1,000 per year, the fee having been
raised in recent years from $3.50 to
$1,000. It is estimated that the city
will have to refund about $4,000 OF
these fees upon revoking the licen-
ses.
In addition to the saloons the Pa
louise brewery, representing $780, 900
investment, will shut down.
Most of the saloon proprietors will
open UP new business in other places.
C. B. Eslick will open saloon on
Riverside avenue, Spokane. Jack
Mama will also go to Spokane. G.
H. Gnist of the Owl bar will move
his fixtures to Waverly. L. D. Sny-
der of the Arch bar will open a
saloon at lamont, Whitman county.
Knutx & Titus are interested in a
pool hall here and will now devote
their time to that.

WINTER SCHOOL DRAWS MANY
Enrolment Yesterday Reached 100.
Twice That of Last Year-Many
Foreign Countries Represented.

The annual winter school for farm
ers opened at the State College We'd
nesday, the enrolment the first even
ing having reached nearly 100. or
twice that of any previous year for
the first day of the term. A study
OF the list of students discloses many
interesting facts and proves beyond
the question of a doubt that the
Washington State College is becom-
ing known all over the world as one
of the best educational institutions
along an agricultural line in the
country. Up to Wednesday evening
70 farmers and others had enrolled
from the state of Washington, while
many others, including the following
numbers, have come from foreign
countries to avail themselves Of the
opportunity of learning more of the
practical side of farming and kindred
industries:
Eight students have enrolled from
England, having come from that
country especially for the winter
course, three from Ireland, and one
from Germany, one from Japan, six
from Canada. Besides these, stu
dents have enrolled from the follow
ing states; Idaho, Oregon, Nevada,
Michigan, Illinois, Ohio, Wisconsin
and Wyoming.
AS some of the most popular cour-
ses, including poultry raising and
horticulture, come near the close of
the term, it is estimated that the en-
rolment will reach nearly $50.

NODRO AND ROBERTS
FINED $50 EACH
,,an Young Men Plead Guilty to
.ssault on Chinaman-Claim
story was Greatly EXag-
gerated.

charles Modro and Wilfred Rob-
.rts Of this city plead guilty in the
s,nerior court to assault and battery
md were fined $50 each. The men
wore charged with assaulting "Ba-
,oouav Pullman's only Chinaman,
md were represented in court by At
torney NJ. S. lamar of this city. The
mon claimed that the stories of the
assault were greatly exaggerated.
Their story as told before the super
;or court was that they went to "Ba-
loena,s" shack near the 0. R. & N.
aonot TO attempt to trade the Celes-
tia1 out of a revolver which they
lnew him to possess. They became
ENGAGED in an argument as to the
worth of the Chinamans revolver
and allege that he called them a
vile name, whereupon Roberts
struck him in the face, making the
marks which Bologna" still carries.
THEY also claimed that the discharge
of the revolver in the hands Of Modro
was accidental.
The Chinaman did not apear in
court and the facts which could be
obtained by Prosecuting Attorney
Chamberlain were very meagre and
badly mixed up, Bologna" telling
several different stories of the affair,
Both Roberts and Modro paid their
fines and were released from custody
after listening to scathing lectures
from Judge Neill, Attorney lamar,
and relatives.
