GEORGE PURVIS GIVEN
 CONTRACT TO ERECT
 BUILDING IN SPOKANE

Our former toWnsman, George Pur- wis, who built the Lathrop building and Empress theater, is the archi- tect who designed and will this spring erect the new Palace theater and office building, Spokane, at a cost of $600000 In a recent issue of the Daily Chronicle, of that city, is contained a cut of the new struc- ture and the following article:
 George Purvis, known throughout the west as a theater builder, will have charge of the construction pro- ject and will select all fittings and equipment.
 The plans provide for a seating capacity of 2,OOO The building will be five stories high and 26 offices will be provided on each of the floors set aside for office space, which will be offered especially to doctors and dentists.
 The entire building will be con structed of materials from the local markets if that is possible" said MT. Lindsay today. "Only the best brick, marble and other materials will be used, and the estimated cost will run approximately in the neighborhood of $5O0,000. The cost of the theater equipment will add probably another $1O0,O00
 Already we have quite number of applications from surgeons and physicians for office space, as they seek to take advantage of the oper, ating room to be opened on the top floor"

RITCHIE WILL ACCEPT OFFICE
 OF ,JUDCESHIP

In an interview with a representa- tive of the Miner, prior to his leaving for the states, E. E. Ritchie, the well known attorney of Valdez, announced that he would accept the office of judge of the Third judicial division, provided the place was offered him, but would not ask for political pre- ferment, nor would he raise finger to get it.
 MT. Ritchie has been importuned to accept the office by practically avery attorney in the Third division. as we'll as by many other persons of both par ties, but has steadfastly refused to allow his name to go before the sen ate for the office on account of dis taste for judicial life and having other plans. However, during a recent vis- it of Territorial Committeeman J. C. Mcbride, he was strongly urged to ac- cept the position and after mature de- liberation agreed to allow his name to be used for the position, provided he was the unanimous choice Of the Ee- publican party.
 The announcement meets with the general endorsement of Republicans all over the division as MT. Ritchie is an attorney of great ability and ex- cellent judicial timber. He nas been a resident of the Third division fer many years, part of the time being in the newspaper game at Seward and later at Valdez, but at all times con- centrating on his growing practice.

Poets Of the Sea.

It seems that the sea is an Anglo
Saxon heritage. English literature re-
fleets it, and it's moods have ever been
portrayed in English verse. To the
North, the Scottish bards sang Of their
own wild headlands and skerries, to
the South. the Devons followed Drake
and Frobisher to the Seven Seas.
Surprisingly, some of the worlds
greatest poems are epics of open wa
ter. The Odyssey, for instance, and
the Aeneid. In those days, Greece
and Rome were the maritime nations
of the earth, and their romance Of
conquest and Of commerce found
ready expression In their literature.
Nowadays, the Anglo-Saxons hold the
shipping of the seas, and sea songs
seem as inevitable to English poets
and to some Americans roman
tic rondels and sonnets did to the
old Gallo school, Christian Science
Monitor. *.

Women Of CeyIon Refuse to Worry

The women Of Ceylon do not bow
the knee to Dame Fashion, but are
content with the sarong-one long

body-which is all most of the women
of Handy wear. The sarong was all
that the majority of women asked in
the days when Randy formed the back
ground for the pageantry Of an ori.
entail court. Randy was the last
stronghold of the Singalese rulers.
Portuguese and Dutch tried In vain
to subdue the city and the little noun
tain kingdom; but the way to Handy
was through narrow passes, surround.
ed by jungles. Many lives were lost
in vain assaults. For 20 years after
the British took Ceylcn the last king
Of Handy successfully resisted inva-
sion. Finally, in 1915, he was cap
tured and sent into exile. The tenn
Piles and palaces and royal tombs Of
Randy speak of the old days Of splen-

cruelty and extortion that blackened

Ceylon. Those dark years are forgot

wise government.

Nine Million Eggs 4 Year!

II only the hen could emulate the
fish in the matter Of laying eggs The
cod tops the list with nine million an-
nually, then comes the sturgeon with
seven and half million. Another
great producer is the founder which
just touches the million. The mack
erel deposits half a million eggs, the
perch four hundred thousand, while
the humble herring is content with
a paltry ten thousand. Eggs are gen.
orally deposited in sand or gravel

of the ocean attach their eggs to sea.
