matter was referred to the com
mittee on buildings and grounds
with instructions to ascertain
what is needed and the cost with
IA view of having the work done
during the summer vacation.
A recommendation signed by
.28 residents of the city was pre-
sented to the board. After a long
preamble reciting the condition
.of the district and a comparison
.of the wages paid teachers in
Iother places, it recommended
that the maximum salary to be
paid the superintendent be Si7OO
per year; principal of high school
$1,000; principals of grade
schools $1,000; ad the wages of
other teachers be cut to conform
to other schools where conditions
were similar. Accompanying
the petition were schedules of
wages paid teachers in the
schools of Occur d'Alene and
Moscow. On motion the recon-
mendation was laid on the table.
The board then went into ex-
ecutive session to discuss the
Question of superintendent and
teachers for the coming year.

watched the passenger trains so
closely that the bOOtleggers have
found it very difficult to get in
that way and as liquor was con-
tinuing to arrive the officers came
to the conclusion that the boot
leggers were using the freight
trains and Sheriff holland decid-
ed to keep a watch on them.
The freights, in coming into
the city, run so slow that it is
possible for a man to jump off
some distance from the city linn
its and walk in and that proved to
be the method followed by the
boOtleggers. Yesterday AFTER
noon after the freight came in
two men were seen walking in
to town who looked suspicious.
Sheriff holland and Deputy Too
hey were on the watch and over
hauling them found that they had
liquor done up in their blankets.
About an hour later Sheriff
holland saw White coming in
with a suit case and started to
ARREST him. White saw the Of
flcer coming and dropping the
suit case started to run. Prem
tice Wolfe overlook him with
horse and he was arrested and
taken to jail The suit case was
found to contain % pints of liq-
uor.
All three men were taken be-
fore Judge Cromwell for exam
ination. Clark and Freeman
confessed, waived examination
and say they will plead guilty
when taken before the district
judge. White was given a pre-
liminary hearing and was bound
over for trial in the district court.

LOCAL HIGH SCHOOL
DEFEATS WALLACE

The local high school basket
ball team won a splendid victory
over the fast Wallace team on
the local floor last Saturday night
the score being 46-13. A large
crowd was in attendance. The
game was fast from start to fin
ish, the Wallace team putting up
a good fight, though plainly out
classed in every feature of the
game by the home team.
The flOOr-work and passing Of
the st. Maries team was the best
seen here this season and the
basket-shOoting was also good.
Though slightly rough at times
there was surprisingly little foul
ing, only six fouls being called on
S. M. H. S. and none on Wallace.
The work Of the locals was high
class throughout, every man do
ing his share, the work of the
guards being especially good,
while Mulroney, at forward, sue
ceeded in dropping the ball
through the ring fourteen times
during the game. The score at
the end Of the first half was
twenty to five, the home team
maintaining a good lead through
out.
Those playing for st. Maries
were Gallagher, Mulroney, for
wards; Ennis, center; Martinson
and Gregory, guards. Under
wood took Gregory's place at
guard during the last few min
utes of play, Gregory being
shifted to center. Hyde, OF
Coeur d'Alene, refereed at the
request Of the visitors and gave
satisfaction to all.
The local high school girls
Iplayed a preliminary, the frs
team winning by a score of Ga.
The game, which was to have
been played at Tekoa on Frida!
was cancelled by the latter.

boys expect some hard game
away from home, but are in goo

City Wins
Damage Suit
JUDGE DIRECTS VERDICT FOR CITY
Corporation Not Liable For Damages If EStab
IiShed Grade Is COnfOrmed To

The question of liability Of the
city for damages caused by a
change in the grades in grading
the streets was settled yesterday
so far as it can be settled by the
district court when the case of
Lashbrook against the city was
decided in favor of the latter.
The case came on for trial yes
terday, Attorneys Highsmith and
Norris representing the plaintiff
and the city being represented by
the city attorney, H. R. Taylor.
Considerable difficulty was en-
countered in securing a jury and
a special venire had to be issued.
The plaintiff put Engineer Par
ker on the stand to try and show
that the city was negligent in
making the grade and that it had
not been made according to the
plans of the engineer and the
grade established by him, which
was adopted by the city. He
testified that while the profile
showed a cut of two and one
half feet the cut actually made
was three and one-half feet but
he was not prepared to testify
that the cut made was actually
below the grade established by
the city.
On the conclusion Of the testi-
mony offered by the plaintiff the
court directed a verdict for the
city. This ended the case which
has been in the courts for nearly
two years and establishes the
right Of the city to change the
grade of the streets providing
that in grading it follows the
grade established.

The board of education held its
regular monthly meeting last
evening with all members pres
cnt except j. +. Landeryou. Bills
to the amount of S85O.34 were
audited and warrants ordered
drawn.
superintendent Lukens, who
was absent from the last regular
meeting, gave his report covering
the months of December and Jan
uary. He also gave a detailed
report of his trip to Boise TO at
tend the meeting of the school
superintendents of the state.
In his report of the conditions
of the schools he stated that the
attendance was the smallest at
the close of last month that it
had been at any time within the
year, due to the prevalence of
measles in the school. 1t had
been necessary to close the first
grade in the high school building
and when it reopened yesterday
only eight pupils were present so
lit was again closed.
A great many cases of the dis
ease had also appeared in the
second grade room in the same
building and it has been closed.
There are also number Of
cases in the third grade and it
may become necessary to close
it. So far there has been but
one case in the high school de-
partment and none in the Lin
coin school. The superintend-
ent has requested that the ply
sicians of the city report all
cases to him and is working in
connection with the health Of
fcer in an endeavor to prevent the
disease from spreading but they
are laboring under difficulties
owing to the fact that in a great
many cases no physician is
/ called and no report made.

ing that it was not kept in as or
