Spokane w. G. T. u. Plans to Replace
Saloons With Coffee Houses

Homeless men of Spokane not going to suffer
for the comforts furnished by the poor mans club,
commonly called the saloon, if the plan Of the W. c.

after Spokane has closed the saloons under the Pro-
hbition law.
The Chronicle of that city says that plans for
establishing coffee houses with reading and game
in connection to take the place of the Saloons
under consideration by the w. c. T. U. The state
vice president of the Union, Mrs Ella Bea said
We believe that the transient and homeless who

rc The experiment has successful where has been
tried, according reports Monday meeting. Such
places arranged for the serving of hot coffee sandwiches
and other light refreshments at nominal cost and is
provided for reading and table games which the ordinary
lunch counters do not provide
This is commendable work or the part of the w.
c. T. u. and it is to be hoped that it will prove
cessful.
The saloons have reaped big profit off the
fortunate of cities, and have posed phian
thropists while doing it. The free lunch and free
room have been dearly bought.
Welcome the glad day when these little benefits
will be supplied without String tied to them"

 in Seventy Years.

Rcdding, Cal, June 1.-Mount Las sen, a latent volcano of the Cascade range, erupted for IS hours, begin ming Saturday. throwing out smoke, steam, rocks and volcanic ash. To- night the mountain again was quiet An expedition will go to the peak later to see if a new crater has been formed.
 The outbreak is the first recorded in California in seventy years and the first of any importance in two hun dred years, althoush 0he Lassen vol canic region is at the western edge of a lava field reaching as far as Montana and containing many craters.
 w. F. Rushing, forest supervisor at Mineral is inclined to believe that an active geyser suddenly had devel- oped. He said his subordinates, who reported the eruption, had seen no fire, although the disturbance lasted a whole night. The smoke and stealn column, he said, rose about 200 feet.

PROBING SINKING
 EMPRESS OF IRELAND
A ROYAL COMMISSION OF THREE HAS BEEN APPOINTED TO FIX
 THE RESPONSIBILITY.

Montreal, June 1.-Now mat the first burst of excitement and grief over the sinking of the Canadian Pacific liner Empress of Ireland mas partially spent itself the public gen erally is settling down 10 await the Iesmt of the governmental inquiry to fix the responsibility for the disaster that resulted in the loss oI neary one thousand lives. A royal commission of three was appointed today to in- yesugate the rammins and sending to the bottom of the St. Lawrence riYer early Friday morning Of the Empress of Leland by the collier Storstad
 The members of the tribunal are Sir Adolph Routhier, judge of the court of admiralty of Quebec, and the Hon. Ezekiel Mcleod, chief justice and judge Of the admiralty court of New Brunswick, appointed by the Canadian government, and George L.. Vaux of the legal staff oi the British Board of Trade Mr. NauX sailed from England today to be present at the hearings, which will begin June 3. Pending the conyeninS of the com mission of inquiry, Captain Lindsay dominion wreck commissioner, will continue tue preliminary inyestisa- ton begun today, taking testimony and assembling evidence for the com mssioners.
 The second step in the legal battle arising out of the sinking of the Elm press of Ireland will be taken tomor- row, when attorneys for the owners of tho Storstad will offer a bond of $-i 000 and ask that the collier be released from arrest. The $2t0,000, which is based on the tonnage of the collier, represents, according to the contention of counsel the maximum liability of the Storstad for the dam age accruius 10 the Canadian Pacific railway. The depositng of the bond will be in no wise an aclnoWledg- ment of responsibility by the owners of the Storstad for inc disaster. 1t will simply be a tormality usually followed in such cases. The bond will remain in possession of the court until the merits of the coutro. yersy between the two steamship companies are legally settled,
 Until the arrival of Mr, VauX de- cisiou as to whether the inquiry is to be held in Quebec or Montreal will not be made. It is probable that a representative of the British admir- alty will make the fourth member of the commission.
