IMPROVE STREETS
IN COLLEGE PARK
Council Declares Intention to I'm
prove Eight Blocks by FILLING,
Grading, CURLING, Guttering
and Parking

Eight blocks of highway In Col
lege Park addition, just south of the
college campus, will be improved by
filling, grading, curbing, guttering
and parking, If a preliminary reso-
luton adopted by the council Tues
day evening bears fruit. The reso-
luton dosignates the streets inclui-
ed as improvement District No. 90,
and describes the territory included
as follows: Main avenue from the
south property line of Tacoma street
to the north property line of Nevada
street; Columbia avenue from the
south property line of Tacoma street
to the north property line of Nevada
street; Spokane street from Main to
Colum bia, and c street from Main
to Columbia.
At its Tuesday evening meeting
the council instructed the committee
on streets and highways to see that
the derelict property owners ON East
Main street comply at once with the
orders of the city to lay cement side
walks. Orders to the property own
ers were issued several months ago,
but few of them have failed to heed
the instructions, In case the work
is not done at once the walks will
be put in by the city and the costs
assessed against the abutting prop
erty.
The roof of the city hall. together
with the floors, will receive a new
coat of paint, the work having been
ordered done by the council. The
special committee appointed two
weeks ago to establish sidewalk
grades in College Park addition and
other parts OF the College hill sec
ton where the grades are not yet
established, was continued, and will
report at the next meeting.
The council ordered the publica-
ton of a resolution specifying the
property included In the Military hill
sewer district, Improvement District
No. 90, which was benefited by the
sewer, but not included in the orig
inal assessment roll. The date of
hearing on the resolution, as we'll as
on the original assessment roll for
the district, was set as May IS.

Every Available Machine VIII Garry
Whitman County Boosters To
Lewiston. Monday, May 3

An imposing sight, as we'll as one
OF the best advertising plans which
could possibly be conceived to ac-
quaint the people with the thrift,
industry and public spirit of the
people of Whitman county, will be
the mammoth caravan of automo-
biles which on Monday, May 3, will
move eastward to Lewiston, carry
ing thousands of Whitman county
boosters to participate in the festiv-
tiles which will be held that day at
the Idaho town in commemoration
of the opening OF the Cello canal,
which unlocks the waterway from
the Inland Empire to the Pacific.
Conceived by the members OF the
Colfax Commercial Club, the plan
of sending the vast army of county
boosters to Lewiston in a mammoth
automobile parade has met with
much favor at the hands of the local
boosters, and Pullman has pledged
100 automobiles, carrying at least
400 people, as her part of the big
undertaking. Delegations from Col
fax are now visiting all the other
towns of the county, and reports
from them indicate that the parade
will contain between 500 and 1000
automobiles, carrying nearly five
times that number of citizens. Ar
rangements are now being made 10
transport the college and Pullman
Citizens bands, a total of 60
musicians.
AS the big cavalcade proceeds,
motion pictures will be taken at
scenic points, the pictures of the
Whitman county boosters parade to
be made a part of the weekly Pathe
news service. The local committee
in charge of Pullman's part of the
undertaking consists of H. Folger,
]. N. Emerson and A. e. Olson, and
all owners of automobiles are re-
quested to at once get in touch with
some member of the committee so
that the usual last minute congestion
of arrangements may be alleviated.
The Lewiston Chamber Of Com
MERGE has chartered the steamer
Undine for the round trip and her
schedule will be as follows:
Leaves Portland at midnight April
%, arriving at the Cascades at day.
light, passing The Dalles during the
forenoon and reaching the canal and
passing through at noon, docking for
the night at Arlington; leave Ar
lington at daylight, pass Umatilla in
the forenoon, then pass Kennewick,
Pasco and Riparia; reach Almota

IN Pullman people, including 80

! q O. NJ, many of them accom-
,.nIed by their wives, while at least
dozen automobiles made the trip.
rho occasion was the public installa-
lion If the officers of the Colfax
uoose lodge, and the big delegation
want to Colfax to return the compli-
ment paid by Colfax two weeks ago,
vbap some 40 members of the Col

tand the public installation services
here.
Arriving at Colfax at about $3.50
the excursionists, including about rs
Moose from Moscow, were met by
hs Colfax band and a large delega-
ton Of citizens. A parade was
formed, headed by the Colfax band,
with the Pullman Citizens band in
the rear, and the visitors were led
through the principal business
streets, finally breaking ranks at the
Moose hall, where a banquet, the
chief item of which was a mammoth
roast pig, was served to all the MEM
bers Of the delegation. The big
tables seated an even 100, and three
times they groaned under their
heavy loads before the entire visit
ing delegation was feasted.
At the banquet table the visitors
were welcomed to Colfax most heart
lily by DR.. j. Floyd Tiff, former
mayor, who was followed by j. c.
Amack, editor of the ColfaX Com
moner. Following the banquet the
guests were escorted to the armory,
where Miss Phoebe Russell and Miss
baDe Shaw, both of Pullman,
hvored the big audience with well
fsndered selections, and the Pull
man band dispensed most excellent
music. Dancing was enjoyed until
midnight, when the Moose special

EVerywhere and all the time the
Hlendliest of feeling was manifested,
ana the highly successful attempt of
as Colfax people to make the visit
their guests as pleasant as pos
aOie was thoroughly appreciated.

INDIANS WIN

The Spokane league baseball team
won from the w. s. c. team last
Friday, 9 to 5, after the collegians
had thrown a scare into the Indians
with a ninth inning rally that
brought in four runs. Moss pitched
good ball for three innings. but
weakened perceptibly in the fourth
and fifth and was relieved by Vic
Anderson. 1t was the opinion OF
local fans that Spokane must bolster
up her team considerably to win her
share of games in the Northwestern
league.
