ADJOURNMENT OF COURT.

The sudden adjournment of the Jury
term OF court last week caused some
comment, but it turns out that the ad-
Journment was in the interests OF
economy, and, besides, the term was
wholly without results. Judge Neal
writing to the Gazette. thus explains
why adjournment was taken:
Il thought perhaps you would like
to know the reasons for the adjourn
ment of the present jury system.
Some two weeks ago we set cases, one
and two each day, 14th to the 22nd.
On the 9th and 10th two Of the de-
PENDANTS plead guilty and were SEN
fenced to Imprisonment for long
terms. One defendant became danger
ously sick and is in hospital. The
prosecuting attorney has been unable
to ascertain the whereabouts of the
prosecuting witness in one case and
could not go to trial. In the Loomis
bank rObbeyr only one of the defend
ants is in custody. Since the jury came
one other defendant has been arrested
in Idaho, and the two can be tried
jointly as cheaply as one. One Of tle
civil cases has been settled. The pros
ecuting attorney requested an ad-
journment Of the term, and all of the
bar present consented, and everything
considered granted his request.
Since the jury would have been idle
about half the time, l thought it bet
ter to let them go home"

Gay, Teas, Riste and Meek.
Minutes of the previous meeting read
and approved as read.
Petition of certain property owners
for the placing of a street light on tae
corner of Bridge street and First ave-
nue. was read.
Professor Davenport appeared be-
fore the council asking that some act
ion be considered in regard the plac-
ing of street light at the foot of the
hill at the high school.
The Fire and Light committee re-
ported that they had considered tle
request of property owners asking for
a street light at the corner of Douglas
street and First avenue, also at Bridge
and First and recommended that these
petitions be denied as there are many
places in town very similar to these
corners and the finances of the town
will not justify the placing of these
lights at this time and recommend that
light be placed at the foot of the
school house hill
Motion was made and carried that
the recommendations of the Fire and
Light committee be accepted and the
light be ordered placed at the foot
of the school house hill.
The matter of additional street work

NEARING COMPLETION,

Out of an ugly beginning things Of
ten grow to an attractive ending Such
is the case in the construction OF the
new brick veneered residence on east
Central avenue. The building was
started in the early spring and thanks
to providence the snow has held off
long enough until the roof could be
finished. We have watched tle slow
proceedings with interest, and felt
glad that the work dragged along
interminably, because 1t was outstand-
ing evidence that something was pro-
crossing in the way of improvements
where improvements were conspicuous
by their absence The new building is
gaining shape and it is going to be
very pretty addition to the east part
Of the town when ready for occupancy.
Let us hope that the good example set
by the construction of this new build
ing will be an influence in inducing
others to invest in building next sum.

WRESTLING WITH CARDS.

dies of the Auxiliary Of the Episcopal
church last Friday evening was
largely attended and conducive Oh
much pleasure to all wlO enjoy fling
ering the paste boards. Whist, as II Is
played by real whist players is looked
upon as highly scientific game, the
players concentrating their attention
upon the progress of the game, vast
ing very little breath in conversation
In such a game the player making an
error of play is shriveled up by the
look of scorn from his partner, ana
while he would not probably say a

could be conveyed by spoken word'
II such rules prevailed at public pro-
gressive whist most people would re-

image, the unacceptable errors OF cohi-
mission and omission that make pro-
gressive whist so attractive and en-
joyable to those who take pleasure
in the excitement Of striving Tor the
odd trick, and 1t is those features tha'
make parties of this kind popular.

MOUNTAIN VIEW SCHOOL DANCE,

Much misrepresentation has been
heard in regard to the unpleasantness
at the dance given at the Mountain
View school at the south end of Pal
mer mountain. The straight of the mat
ter is that two of the dancers from
neghboring towns were requested to
leave, after having been repeatedly
warned that their dancing was object
ionable. Others were also warned.
These dances are given in the school
building and nothing but respectable
dancing will be tolerated. The directors
and the floor manager are not gran
nies" or "prudes" but just ordinary,
clean-minded men who intend seeing
that the dances given there are dances
where every one and his wife, mother,
sister or sweetheart can go and have
a good time, with nothing to spoil a
good neutrality-suspicious.

LAST OF THE SEASON.

The last football game of the season
In which the local high school team
VIII participate In takes place on the
local grounds this Friday afternoon
when Tonasket will be on hand for a
return game. The last promises to be
the best Of the fall series because the
teams are so evenly matched. This
was demonstrated a fortnight ago
when Tonasket put it over on Oroville
to tae tune Of 13 to 8. When a game is
that close 1t is evidence that the teams
are so neatly balanced that the result
is uncertain until the whistle ends the
contest. The least slip of any kfhd
may change the chance of victory. or
single sensational play may win for
the side making that play. 1t will be
game worth milling on the side lines
to witness and every business man
and as many citizens as possible
should turn out, not only to saow ap-
probation for the school but by the
small contribution 1t will cost will
help out the team financially, and 1t
Is in ned of help.
