time and travelling expenses in
connection with supervision OF
road work are said to be the cause
of the recall move. The three
commissioners have collected
about $1,000 in extra compensa-
ton since Jan. 1, it is alleged, all
of which is said to be illegal.
Orders have been received by
the master carpenter of the Mar
Gus division to Immediately COM
mence the erection of stockyards
at the Colville station. Colville
has been working for these stock
yards for about three years.
About a year and a half ago the
Seattle headquarters recommend
ed the yard, but it has taken
more than year for the st. Paul
Office to make up its mind that
Colville is sufficiently on the map
to be entitled to stockyards. Two
pens are to be constructed, 24x24.
If the Chamber of Commerce will
now keep in daily telegraphic
communication with Seattle and
St. Paul and Spokane and Mar
Gus, until the carpenter actually
gets start on the job, and then
watch the yards to see that the
lumber and men are not spirited
away before the job is completed,
Colville may be able to advertise
to the surrounding farmers and
shippers that the yards and load
ing facilities are now a part of
Colville's shipping assets. But
Charlie Wingham and other ship
pers will actually have to see
those yards before they will know
that no longer will they have to
furnish their own derricks to
hoist animals into cars.

bridges, the city deriving its name
from its many bridges, all opening in
the middle to admit of the passage Of
vessels. 1t is connected with the sea,
eight miles away. by the three canals
from Client, Sluys and Ostend.
Dating from the thiyd century,
Bruges ultimately became the metropo-
lis Of the worlds commerce. Seven.
teen privileged trading companies,
from seventeen different kingdoms,
settled there, while Its Importance was
such that twenty ministers from for.
eign courts at one time had mansions
within its walls.
The belfry of Bruges is probably the
most famous In the world. 1t was
built at the end Of the thirteenth CEN
tury. 1t is 1853 feet high and pos.
sesses a carlton of forty-eight bells,
regarded as the finest in Europe. It
Is really one OF the detached municipal
belfrles which were erected in the
twelfth and thirteenth centuries In GER

symbols Of their freedom.

Origin Of Some Of the Titles and Ex.
pressions In Use.
Here are the origins of some of the
terms used In the army and navy:
Captain" is derived from the Latin
"caput,' meaning head; colonel"
comes from the Italian "colonna,"
column. the ''compagna coloneIla" hav.
ing been the first company of an in
fantry regiment, the little column
which the colonel" led. The title
lieutenant" comes from word sig.
nifying holding the place"-e. g.,
lieutenant colonel is sort of under
study for colonel, a lieutenant looks
after company in the absence of the
captain, and SO on The titles of lance
sergeant" and lance corporal origi-
mated in the fact that In the old days
the holders of those ranks carried a
lance instead of halberd, round the
head Of which was twisted slow
match. Their duties were to go round
the ranks with these torchlike lances
and give fire to the matchbox men Just
before battle took place.
The word dragon was first used
of regiment of mounted infantry, so
called from the dragons" or short
muskets, with which they were armed;
the well known cavalry call of Boot
and saddle" is really a corruption of
the old French signal, "Doute selle,"
or Put on your saddles" Admiral"
comes from the Arabic "Emir of bagh,"
meaning Lord Of the sea-; "commo-
dore' comes from the Italian com.
mandatore;: mate" is from the Ice

have originated In the agreement which
