RET R.O S P E CT I V E The first act for the establishment of the State Agricultural College and School of Science was passed March 9, 1890. The governing board was called “ file Commission of Technical In¬ struction ' and it was obvious from the first that the general object was to establish an institution for technical instruction and applied science. The curriculum provided for in this and subsequent legislation confirms the same view. The institution was not opened for instruction until January. 1892. (ieorge Lilley, L.L.l)., was the first president. Mr. Ki lley was succeeded in December. 1892. by J. Heston, who served until September, 1893. The opening in 1892 gave promise of rapid growth. When the term opened in the fall of 1892 the attendance was large and the pros¬ pects of the college so far as attendance was concerned seemed very bright. I hit troubles came and the year was full of disaster, so that it ended with a very small attendance, and the reputation of the college throughout the state had suffered severely. The gloomy fall of 1893 came with its financial panic and its ruined crops and the college opened with a mere handfull (23 students). Meanwhile a new board of regents had been appointed, consisting of C harles k. Conner of Spokane. 11 . S. Blandford of Walla W alla, IT S. Ingraham of Seattle. J. W . Stearns of Tekoa and T. R. Tannatl of Farmington. ' The board effected a complete reorganization of the institution. Knoch A. Bryan of Indiana was chosen president, and steps were taken for the reconstruction of the cur¬ riculum. The Board proceeded at once to construct the Mechanical Kngineering Building, com¬ pleted in 1893, and the Administration Building, completed in 1894, Stevens Hall was built in 1895. ' I he growth of the college has been rapid, the year 1900 closing with an enrollment of 9 vSCIKXCK HALL. 53 The curriculum, equipment and faculty have been enlarged and perfected as the enrollment has increased. Xo departure has been made from the conception of the work adopted at the time of the reconstruction. A notable thing in connection with the college has been the original contri¬ bution to science by the staff of scientific men connected with the college and experiment station. The year 1900 saw the completion of Science Hail, one of the best buildings for the purpose in the west. At the present time the college is building a Chemistry Building which will add still further to its scientific work. It is destined, without doubt, to be the leading scientific and technical insti¬ tution of the northwest. BOARD OF REGENTS His Excellency, John R.

Hail to the colors that float on the breeze; Hurrah for the Crimson and Gray! II. Crimson the poppies that bloom in the glade. While Nature beams down from above; - I Crimson the blush on the cheek of the maid. As she lists to the story of love. Gray are the cloud flecks ere breaking of dawn And grav is the mist-veil that Kvening puts on ff Hail! Mail to the streamers thal Nature has wove— Hurrah for the Crimson and Gray! IIL Here’s to the College that stands oil the hill! Here’s to the hearts that are gay! Here’s to the spirits, that wave with a will. The banners of Crimson and Gray.

Chemistry 31 History It is customary in writing a class history to employ the highest sounding words and to delve deep into the treacherous depths of grandiloquence. The purpose of this modest attempt is to make a statement of the broad facts in connection with the Junior Class, and we believe that by so doing, its merits will be sufficiently appreciated. The class of 1902 existed in its embryological stage as the Junior Prep, class of 1896. In that year they did nothing extraordinary except learning their lessons well, and by the process of evolution became Senior Preps the following venr. They had a banquet, the first banquet, so they thought, in the whole history of the college; but lo! after many days the disquieting knowledge came that at least two classes had gathered around the festal board; and thus was a fond delusion hurled against the immovable wall of fact. Xext year they were Freshmen. Green? Vo. that color was overshadowed by the ruddy glow of determination to progress. This showed itself in the fact that they held an entertainment, and with the proceeds presented the college with a bust of Senator J. L. Morrill, which now stands in die chapel as a fitting tribute to the departed statesman. After a year of hard study, no small achievements, and exams, having been passed, this class appeared in the arena of college affairs as Sophies, d ime passed by and the cane rush came with all its fury. When swelled and bruised heads resumed their normal dimensions “1902 caps were worn—a custom heretofore unknown. Vow the members of this class are Juniors and in keeping with their past history, have this year inaugurated the custom of having class field clays, presenting a handsome silver cup to the win¬ ning class in this year’s meet; also the class revived the publication of the C hinook. which had been sus¬ pended by their predecessors, the class of 1901. 32 These are the broad outlines of the doings of the class of 190J. To particularize would be io jump into the chasm of enormity. Its members have won honors in almost all avenues in which honors may be sought. In summing up the characteristics that distinguish this class we have as their most notable trait that of making new departures and establishing new customs. This class organized the Websterian Society, which now includes members of all classes; it was the first and has been the only class thus far to present the college with a bust; it introduced the cane rush and the wearing of class caps, and has started the custom of having class field-days, This class will go out of college next year noted for what it has done and the variety of its achievements.

We ' ll be here till 1903! 35 H i s t o ry The class of 1903 had a humble and somewhat obscure origin. A tier a sojourn of a few short years in the Prep Department, ruled over In his majesty (ieorge I., we shook its dust from our feet and became Collegiates. Here our troubles began; what had been considered troubles before were dwarfed into insig¬ nificance. Tire upper classmen passed uncomplimentary remarks upon our verdant hue and egotism, forbad 11s to earn canes and made their presence obnoxious in many ways. We, with a magnan¬ imity that is characteristic of the class, decided that as Sophomores we would not help make life a burden to the poor Presides. This resolution has been carried out to the extent that the Fresh¬ men now carry canes and the two classes have met in harmony on several festal occasions. Our exploits in many lines have been uniformly successful, not a mediocre event among them. In athletics we stand at the top. Two years in succession we have won the tug of war, in 1900 from the class of 1902, in 1901 from the class of 1904. Who won the cane rush in 1900. None other than 1903, even if some do have the audacity to say we didn ' t. We likewise had more men in the victorious football team of 1900 than any other class, and thus the record reads. Intellectually the class of 1903 is second to none. Fverv member has met the exams with a fortitude worthy of a better cause, and has passed over them with such easiness as to cause that august body, the Faculty, to exclaim in the words oi the poet: “Some mute inglorious Milton here may rest, Some From well guiltless of his country ' s blood 36 Members of the cl ass have taken an active part in all lines of literary work. Two members of this year’s College Debating Team belong to our class, as well as many valued members of our several literary societies. This is the record of the class in every department of college activity—- ever at the front. The harmony that has pervaded our actions as a class, since ils organization long years ago, has been one of our most notable characteristics. We have been a unit upon all matters under¬ taken: look at the result—we have been successful. As for genius, the class may be said to be a bright and shining light in a dark place. s yet this genius is largely potential, but as a sample of what has been turned to account, the following recently composed yell may be quoted : “Mush and milk and sunflower seed: That ' s the siufl on which we feed ; We’re the Sophomore aggregation. The warmest thing in all creation.” The future of the class of T903 is plainly marked: no one can miss seeing the brilliant pros¬ pect that beckon it on. When, in some far away lime, the roll of the famous is called, why, we will all be there. In after years the history of 1903 will be an inspiration to struggling human ity; it will be noted how from a humble beginning we dauntlessly climbed, urged on by our ambi¬ tion, higher and higher until our seats among the “immortals” were reached: then will the despairing lake up their heavy load and strive for nobler and higher things. 37 Cl.ASS OI 1D04.

Our name is the pride of the school, brave laddies and beautiful lassies, you see— For exceptions there’s none to this rule. Our brains and our looks, not to mention our books, Cause envy to all, yes. galore; Where the Freshmen appear there is always good cheer, We’re the class of 1904. Our talents are many as stars of the sky. As displayed in the class day by day. Finds the face of the Prof with a smile in his eye. As our knowledge we try to display. And the Sophs and the Preps, with unsteady steps With envy they see us and sigh. We are moving along to a nice little song. 1904, “in the sweet bv and by.” The days of September were fading away With autumn’s bright leaves on the tree. And the century also beginning to say . Soon I’ll pass into eternity. Then came this wonderful class, brave and strong, In the search of the knowledge sublime, lint ere we have gone we will write all along, 1904 on the lone sands of time. The Freshmen are people who can carry canes, And hold their heads up in the air. While the I reps, in their simpleness, seem to have pains. As through their glasses they stare. And so it is with the classes alb The Seniors, the Juniors, the Sophs; They think, after all. we are not quite so small, 1904, you ' re most smart as the Profs. 41 A reception one dark winter night was given To the foot ball hoys, true and sincere, fn honor of the invincible eleven Kach class a good song did prepare. The Freshmen again could not be outdone; With a style that put others to shame, They told of their work and the bovs one by one. And the honors brought back from each game. Then, when we tried with the work of the arts, Again every light brightly shown, And six handsome verses we gave there in parts. To the tune “And the Hand Played On. The people encored us and we must remain; ' They told us the prize must be ours. We do not complain, yet ' twas ill-gotten gain Which the Seniors obtained by their scores. Xow on the lower round we stand Of that ladder that seems, O! so high; We think in four years how 01 r heads will expand. As the end of our school days draw nigh. For in these years to come as the good work goes on. When at last we’re the top of the heap. The good name we’ve won will descend to each one. Which 1904 ever will keep. 42 Leslie Goff .

Class of 1905 The Senior Preparatory Class, since next year it will enter upon its collegiate existence, has a class organization. The class numbers thirty-live wide-awake young men and women. The spirit of its members have often been shown, and in the past year many enjoyable social gatherings have been recorded. The class will make itself known in collegiate life, its members being foremost in all events and will lead where others only dare follow. W hile it may not revolutionize the existing conditions and customs of collegiate classes, it will add a fresh life and spirit which, though not entirely lacking at present, needs that invigorating influence which shall be given by the active and sturdy Senior Preps. Preparatory School Association The Preparatory School Association is an organization which includes the entire Prepara¬ tory Department. ' This association takes the place of a class organization for the Junior and Middle Preparatory classes. When organized, early in the year, a color was adopted for the department, the choice being gold. Besides this, each class has a color of its own by which it is distinguished. The Senior Preparatory purple, the Middle Preparatory blue, the Junior Preparatory dark red. The purpose for which this organization was perfected was to further the social and intellectual advance mem of its members. By it, two very enjoyable and successful socials have been given, the first early in the year, the second on the evening of St. Valentine ' s day. This association embraces one- third of the student body and no part of that body takes a more active interest in college affairs. Its 45 members gave to the J()oo football team much of the strength that enabled the team to make such a proud record for itself. At the close of the season a picked Preparatory team defeated a like Collegiate team. 5 to o. in the hardest contested game of the season on the V. A. C. grounds. A challenge was sent to the Spokane High School, but was not accepted. Many of its members are training this season for track events and on them the College relies to win many points. Following out one of the purposes for which it was organized, the Preparatory School Asso¬ ciation has made arrangements for a debate with the State Normal School at Cheney. This debate will take place at this College on the third of May, so the result will be known before the Chinook is out. There is a spirit in the Preparatory Department, a spirit of steadfast loyalty to the College and all of its institutions. It is this spirit which leads its members to so liberally support all college organizations and societies. The Prep is no longer an uncertain quantity. He is. in fact, a largo and very important factor in the college. It is said ‘the son is father to the man,” so the Prep is father to the Collegiate, and it is further said “like father like son.” Therefore, while the Pre¬ paratory School Association is purposed primarily for the immediate benefit and advancement of its members, it at the same time benefits, and in no small degree, the entire institution. 46 MECHANICAL BUILDING. SENIOR PHARMACY. School of Pharmacy Among the various departments which compose the School of Science of the Washington Ag¬ ricultural College, “The School of Pharmacy has, since its organization five years ago, become one of the leading departments with an enrollment of thirty-one and an alumni numbering twelve. A course in pharmacy was established in the early years of the college history but was soon given up and the energies of the young institution were directed in other channels. The present nour¬ ishing department was established in 1896 as a result of the recommendation of President Rrvan. It was recognized by the faculty and regents that the drug trade of the state was dependent upon east¬ ern schools to furnish men educated in the profession of pharmacy, and that the opportunities this caIi ing offered to the young men of Washington were in a large measure closed .to them, unless they were able to hear the expense of going to eastern schools for professional training. The wisdom on the part of faculty and regents in establishing the department of pharmacy has been amply attested by its rapid growth and the success of its graduates. The object of the School of Pharmacy is to give young men who desire to enter the profes¬ sion a thorough training not only in prac tical pharmacy, hut also in the sciences which underlie it, a know ledge of which is so essential to the highest success in the profession. As a basis for the work high entrance requirements are maintained, this standard being two years in advance of many of the eastern schools. The work of the School of Pharmacy is under the supervision of the following faculty: Geo. II. Watt, B. S. Ph. C Elton Fulmer, M. A. C V. Piper, M. S. S. 15 . Nelson, 1 ). V. M. . . . Chas. A. Barrv. .Prof, of Pharmacy . Prof, of Chemistry .Prof, of Botany Prof, of Phvsiology and Therapeutics .Prof, of Languages 49 ' [ he School of I harmacy is comfortably located on the round floor of College flail, where it has a large recitation room well stocked with crude drugs and pharmaceutical preparations; also a commodious laboratory thoroughly equipped for pharmaceutical operations. In addition the students have access to the large laboratories of the departments of botany and chemistry for work in these .subjects. The School of Pharmacy has twelve graduates, nearly all of whom are engaged in the active practice of the profession; four of them are now proprietors of drug stores at various points in the .stale, d he success of the graduates is a striking; proof of the practical value of the work of the de¬ partment. The Senior class consists of eleven members, all of whom hope by the time this reaches its read¬ ers to be nearly ready to graduate. The Junior class numbers nineteen. The two classes work together in an organization known as “The School of Science Pharma¬ ceutical Association. It is the object of this society to furnish training in the preparation and dis¬ cussion of papers on scientific subjects of interest to pharmacists; also to secure lectures upon subjects related to pharmacy which are not directly covered by the course of study. The record of the School of Pharmacy is one of which all may be justly proud, and it is the de¬ termination of the present classes to fully sustain its past reputation. lU’SIXKSS DICPAkTMKXT. lU ' SINKSS DKPARTMEXT.

Cadet Major A. T. W ells serving during the remainder of the college year of 98 and Cadet Major L. L. Totten during the year of ’98- yc). In the fall of 99 no major was appointed, each captain having full charge of his company and reporting direct to the President of the college, hi the early part of 1900 Capl. John Kinzie. retired, formerly of Spokane, was detailed as commandant of the cadets. At the beginning of the year three companies had been formed, but later in the year Company C was disbanded and incorporated with A and B. In 99 the annual encampment was held at Palouse in connection with the (i. A. R. encamp ment. In 1900 the battalion encamped at Garfield, the military company of that place going into camp with them. The growth of the Military Department has necessitated the formation again this year of three companies. An order has been sent to the W ar Department asking for an additional one hundred and fifty rifles. Two modern field guns are to be here next year to replace the old muzzle loader that has been long out of date. Recently a signal corps has been organized with V. V. Cobb, late Sergeant L S.

Such encouragement as had been given to this work, until then, had been through the literary societies and the annual declamation contest. In that year realizing its necessity, an oratorical association was or¬ ganized, including all collegiate students in its membership. Since that time its work has been uninter¬ rupted. I’nder the present arrangement a local oratorical contest is held on the third Friday in March of each year. The winner of the contest receives a gold medal and the privilege of represent¬ ing the college in the Intercollegiate contest held on the last Friday of April. To further strengthen this work in the several schools an Intercollegiate Association was formed between the U. of h, V. C. and the W. A. C. in the spring of ’97. The winners of the past four contests have been the Lb of I. 97, Y. C. ’98, Y. A. C. 99, and Y. C. 1900. In the spring of 1899 the first Intercollegiate Debates in the history of the institution were held, one with the Lb of . at Seattle, the other with Whitman, the Lb of V. and the Y. A. C. being the respective winners. In 1900 the second debate with the lb of W. was held here, the Lb of Y. again being victorious. This year we are to debate W hitman College, the team chosen at the pre¬ liminary contest consisted of Messrs. Adams, Lewis and J. 15 . Cordincr. Mr. Cordiner resigned and his place on the team was filled bv his alternate, Mr. Cobh. The result of the final contest will L e known to all readers of the annual before this volume is out. This year ' s local oratorical contest was won by Mr. Xalder. The result of the Intercollegiate will likewise be known before this volume is out. The increased interest that has been taken in all matters that pertain to oratory and debating during the past two years is most gratifying. The local oratorical contest of 1900, of which Y. D. Outman was winner, was considered to have been the best held tip till that time. The contest of the present year was fully up to the standard there set. Probably the improvement is more marked in the matter of debating than in oratory. This year’s local debate showed a much greater amount of care¬ ful training than ever before. 66 Editorial The history of athletics at the V. A. C. is rather a brief one, but by no means one to be ashamed of. During the past six years our athletes have tried in various ways to bring glory to their col¬ lege and with varying success. It is difficult in a school like our own, where so much time has to be given to class and laboratory work to find time for athletics; though such has always been the case, yet we can look back with pride upon our achievements. Although we have not always had a win¬ ning team we have had our share of athletic honors, and have always avoided anything that tends to¬ ward professionalism. W e have tried to develop a true athletic spirit among our own students, thinking that it is better to be defeated in a fair game than to win by questionable methods. Track athletics have always held a high place at the V. A. C, and though we have broken no records, we stand at the head of schools in the Inland Empire. Last year we met for the first time the track team from the University of Washington, a team which had had the benefit of an able in¬ structor and trainer, and though we were defeated, it was by no means a walk over for the victors. Football is perhaps the branch of athletics in which we have won the most honors in the past. Until the fall of 1899 our record was one of unbroken victory. During the season of ? oo our football men met for the first time a team from outside the Inland Empire, the game being played at Seattle with the University of Washington. The football teams during the season just past have, for the first time in the history of athletics at the V. A. C, had the assistance of a coach. Y. L. Allen, a graduate of the University of Michigan, was procured by the Athletic Association to coach the men; he was very successful and has built a strong foundation for our future in football. 68 In baseball we have not been so successful, owing largely to the backwardness of the season and the consequent delay in training. Yet we have always had a regular college team and have played several games each season. The spring of 1901 promises to be a very good one for baseball, as more interest is being taken in it than any lime in the past. For the past five years there has been given an annual indoor athletic entertainment; these have always been largely attended and have served to keep up interest in athletics when nothing can be done outside. In the fall of ’oo regulations were adopted by the Association regarding an athletic emblem to be won by members of the different college teams. A large Roman Y was adopted for football: a somewhat smaller Y inside a circle was adopted for the track men, and a similar Y inside a dia¬ mond for the baseball men. All the Y s, circles and diamonds are gray to be worn on a cardinal sweater. The regulations governing the winning of the Y are so strict that it will be rather difficult for any large number of persons to have the emblem at any one time; thus making it a distinction worth working for, and one that should be jealously guarded by the Association. In the following pages devoted to athletics, the object has been to give in as compact a form as possible the athletic events which have taken place at the Y. A. ( ' . during the past year, as well as a few items of general interest. The following Men are entitled to wear the College Emblem: J. O. Elton J. C. Early A. L. Hooper C. II. Good sell V. Lasher .

' The membership includes all persons in the college interested in Biological work, together with such others, outside the college circle, as may be likewise interested. Meetings are held on each alternate Tuesday evening during the school year. So far the Club has been a decided social as well as scientific success, the important biological questions of the day being discussed with great in¬ terest by the members, while in order to spice the meetings the professors regale the club with the latest jokes from the comic periodicals, together with some brilliant (?) ones of their own invention. 95 At the end of college year conies “Peanut Night,” when the members who for various reasons have failed to appear on the program during the year, procure peanuts and taffy for the de ' lectation of the more faithful members. Science is dispensed with for the evening and full swing is given to— “Spirit, that wrinkled Care divides, And Laughter holding both his sides, as the members pass the time with thrilling ghost stories and patent jokes. A list of subjects discussed during the past year embraces the following: ' The Influence of Soil and Climatic Conditions on Disease, Instinct, Metabolism of Nutrients. Insectivorous Plants, Hygienic Treatment of Consumption, Mosquitoes and Malaria, Economic Value of Pollination in the Orchard. 96 Y. M. C. A. President . Vice President .

No brilliant results are expected nor are they wished for, but if through the zeal and better liv¬ ing of its members a higher sense of honor, duty and Christianity may be established among the stu¬ dents, its labors will have been rewarded and its object attained.

Most of the time the heavy storm clouds made the night as dark as the Black Mole of Calcutta, and then the electric light in front of the Ad Building would shine forth like a beacon on a storm swept coast. Two belated Ferry Hall students were wending their way homeward through the darkness. After passing the entrance to the campus the wayfarers noticed between them and the Ad Building light two shadowy forms whose outlines so strikingly resembled a shadowgraph picture as to command attention at once. The figures seemed to be talking very earnestly about something when, without warn¬ ing. one suddenly grabbed the other. Could it be a case of robbery or murder? The boys rushed forward. But a moment later the forms resumed their original position. It was merely a lover’s embrace, a stolen kiss, and two disgusted fellows turned abruptly across the campus for Ferry. CARL McCOY. 104 WAPATO The Chelan Indians lived in peace on the lake which now bears the name of their tribe. The great mountains which surrounded the lake shut them in from contact with other Indians, and the only white men they ever saw in those early times were Hudson Bay traders, whose yearly visits to barter for furs w ere heralded with much joy and especially by the youths of the tribe, who looked for¬ ward to such a visit as the greatest event of the year. One morning nearly a hundred years ago a lithe-limbec!, brown-skinned, laughing ' faced lad wriggled out from under the fastened flaps of a smoke-discolored tepee and bounded down the gravelly beach towards a small canoe that was lying on the shore of the lake. “Wapato! Wapato! Where are you going?’’ came a soft gutteral call in Siwash from the tepee. “To spear salmon,” the lad answered in his light happy voice as he shoved his frail craft into the water and jumped easily into it. The squaws washing on the shore and bustling around the scat¬ tered tents paused in their work to cast admiring glances toward him, and even the gruff old braves deigned to look approval. Wapato, who was the son of th e chief, was the favorite of all the tribe, not on account of his birth, but because of his fearlessness, his happy disposition and because he returned their affection, in kind. There was one, however, whom he not only did not love, but actually feared. This was the medicine man, Osooyos. It was he who communed with the gods, foretold events and gave success to all expeditions undertaken by the tribe. He it was who settled all differences and delivered judg¬ ments. He alone knew and could interpret all the legends and traditions of the tribe. His fantastic dress and secluded and mysterious manner of living only tended to high ten the superstitious reverence 105 the Indians had for him. Without his approval nothing could succeed. But all his influence could not command the love of the tribe, and a hidden jealousy of Wapato only strengthened the dislike and fear the latter had for the medicine man. But W apato had forgotten everything disagreeable as he paddled forward swiftly, thinking of the fine sport he was going to have and of the taste of broiled salmon. He had just rounded a point of land that shut out his view of the settlement when he descried a short distance down the lake a couple of canoes coming toward him. Me stopped paddling and gazed at them for a moment with a puzzled expression. Suddenly his face brightened and he hastily turned around and paddled swiftly hack toward the village. The prow of his canoe had no sooner touched the gravel than Wa¬ pato was on the beach excitedly crying out. “The white traders are coming. r “The white traders are coming! ' ’ The Indians immediately began collecting their furs and arranging them near the edge of the water. So when the two canoes with their white passengers reached the landing place they were at once surrounded by an eager, gesticulating crowd ready to exchange costly pelts for the cheap and simple trinkets which the white men used as money. But even in the midst of their absorption in bargains they noticed that one of the white men took no part in the trading. Such an unheard-of proceeding combined with his peculiar dress—a black gown girdled at the waist by a cord, and a small cross hanging by a chain of wooden beads on his breast—was sufficient to command their at¬ tention at once. When the traders departed this man remained. The white stranger had come to teach the Indians a new religion. It was a difficult task: for he had to overcome a faith in immemorial traditions and superstitions. This faith had received dreadful sanction in the minds of the Indians by mysterious rumblings in the lake, followed by fearful shudderings of the earth, which occurred at intervals of ten years and continued for a week at a time. To the Indians these awful disturbances were calls from the god Chapacca for a human sacrifice as a punishment for the sins of the tribe. The demand was never refused and every ten 106 years the medicine man conducted a victim to the home of Chapacca, the crater of a great volcano, situated in the heart of the mountains. W hen Osooyos found that the priest had come to convert his people to a new religion lie demanded that the strange medicine man he thrown into the crater. He knew that with the passing of the old faith his own despotic rule would end forever. W ' apato’s father refused, however, and Osooyos with many dire threats had to return to his seclusion. But just as the holy man thought he was beginning to make an impression on the Indians everything was undone by the recurrence of the rumblings and earthquake shocks a year ahead of their usual time. On the first signs of the angry god’s presence Osooyos, dressed more fantastically than ever, stalked into the midst of the trembling assemblage gathered in front of the council wigwam. His features were set like stone and his whole bearing struck awe into the simple-minded Indians. The rumblings and shocks continued. Osooyos mounted a crude pulpit and addressed the people. Be¬ ginning in a tone low but intense he gradually worked himself up into a frenzy; wildly gesticulating with his long painted arms and contorting his hideously marked features into expressions positively terrifying. One moment he would shriek out at the top of his powerful voice, the next send his words hissing out through his clenched teeth, .lie told the people that Chapacca now demanded a human sacrifice; that he had not waited his full ten years this time because the tribe was committing a great sin; they had allowed among them a stranger who was defaming their gods and teaching a new religion; and ending he said, “To reconcile the god the paleface must die and the favorite son of the tribe must be sacrificed.” Osooyos had so worked upon his hearers that they were ready and eager to give up anyone to the sacrifice. ' The white priest was seized and bound, and Wapato’s father, thinking himself guilty in having allowed the stranger to live among them, gave up his son as the favorite of the tribe. That night a great fire was built near two trees in the center of the village to which the priest and Wapato were bound. Around the fire the braves moved in the slow death dance. The 107 squaws squatted in a circle hack of them and chanted the death song, slowly swaying their blanketed bodies to and fro while their long black shadows dickered back and forth in a ghostly dance on the white walls of the tepees rising up out of the blackness behind. This weird performance lasted until midnight, when the victims were unlxnind and allowed to take what rest they could before the trip which was to begin at sunrise. Just as the skv in the east was lighting up a long line of braves led by Osooyos, with Wapato and the priest in their midst filed out of the village and struck into a dim trail which led up the side of a mountain back of the settlement. It was a solemn party that for five days followed this trail over rough steep mountains, down into beautiful, broad valleys, through the luxuriant growth of virgin forests, across mountain cataracts and up great rocky canyons. The shudderings of the earth continued during the whole time. The priest and the boy were left to their own thoughts. They bore up bravely on the journey towards a certain and awful death, and the sight of the volcano, which they reached the evening of the fifth day. affected them less than it did the other members of the party. On the morning of the sixth day they commenced the ascent of the mountain from the summit of which trailed a cloud of sulphurous smoke. The sun had nearly set when they reached the top. At the sight of the deep crater with the lines of its jagged, rocky sides Hashing out now and then through the clouds of steam and smoke which issued from the boiling, hissing, flaming caldron, the Indians, led by Osooyos, threw themselves on their faces in the particular worship demanded by the immediate presence of the god. After the ceremony Osooyos named two of the party to unbind and guard the victims, while he moved out on a great ledge of rock which overhung the glowing crater to make formal presentation of the sacrifices. Standing in his gaudy dress over the center of the crater, sometimes only vaguely distinguished through the smoke and steam that enveloped the ledge, then again in plain view as the wind would blow aside the vapor, the old medicine man looked a priest of the god indeed. The Indians, grouped back from the brink of the crater, gazed at him 108 with reverence. Suddenly, while his arms swung wide in gesture, a great sheet of dame shot up from the crater and enveloped the ledge. It was instantly followed by a terrific roar. The ground swayed. The ledge rose in the air. Then, with a tremendous crash, it fell into the molten crater, burying in its midst Osooyos, the great prophet of the Chelans. 1 hrown to their knees and stricken dumb with terror the Indians could not even move. The priest saw his opportunity. Seizing his crucifix and extending it above their heads he broke the awful stillness that followed the catastrophe. The Indians started, lifted their heads and listened. With a commanding power due to the awfulness of the occasion and to his own implicit faith he told them that the death of Osooyos was the will of the Great Spirit as a punishment for teaching them a wrong and cruel religion. When he had done, the Indians all joined in worshiping the true God. again bowed their heads and F. M.

What can it be Two glistening, glittering orbs of fire and an indistinct form can be seen dimly through the dusk. Horrors! The very cat 1 dissected not tinee hours ago! Surely it is an hallucination. I pass my hand across my eyes, but it is still there, the identical cat that I pitilessly carved into a thousand bits. I battle against my rising terror as the tales of merciless revenges taken by the spirits of the wronged rush through my mind. This will be my fate, to feel in the light and see in the dark, year after year, the eyes and sinuous form of that cat. W eary, weary, yet no rest— it is on the pillow beside my head—it creeps into my dreams—there will be no escape from that revengeful phantom. At the thought of the slowly consuming remorse that I shall have to endure, icy shivers run over my body—my hair rises—mv tongue cleaves to the root of my mouth—my—Ah, [ remember.

Evans i M THE CANE RUSH The signs of class competition had been increasing for a long time. This was year before last. The “ , 02s and the “ 03s were Sophomores and Freshmen then. The war clouds began to lower. A bitter struggle could be scented from afar. So we were not greatly surprised when the bulletin board contained a notice from the Sophomores notifying the Freshmen that they were going to carry a 1902 cane on the night of the 1900 local debate. The Freshmen began to work up enthusiasm among their hosts and gird themselves up for the battle. During the debate the members of the two classes were seen to keep the company of their own classmen to the exclusion of all others; and many w ere the sidelong glances at their opponents. A large part of the audience were in peaceful oblivion of the storm that was brewing, but those who had an inkling of the status of affairs were restless with impatience. The contest over and the prizes awarded, the crowd began to assemble outside the front door of the Ad, where the Freshmen had preceded them. The “ ' 03s” began to grow nervous from suspense, but it was not for long. All at once the “ , 02s ,t with Spenser for their center-rush came through the door with the force of a tandem line-buck. With a wild yell the Freshmen threw them selves on the foe. Pandemonium broke loose; confusion reigned; and class spirit rolled high. The struggling mass surged to and fro. Fver and anon a member would lose his grip and go rushing to one side as though tinder the inffuence of centrifugal force. Put he just as often returned. The crowd pressed eagerly towards the scene of struggle. Those Freshmen beauties and Sophomore belles were near waving their arms in the excitement of the moment and shouting encouragement as well as their feminine voices would permit. The slope of the campus naturally drew the conflict down the hill, and as they passed on some were left bv the wayside. Tommy Woods and llnngate clung to each other, Jones detained an unwilling Soph merely for company ' s sake. ' These would have remained indefinitely in each other ' s embrace, lmt finding that they could not, or would not, pa ' l. a truce was sworn, and there they remained while the din of the battle receded into the distance. ' The general direction was toward the old power plant. Hut the cane—it was there, too. It was pulled hither and thither. Spenser held it, Sargent clung to it, Burke stayed with it, Sherrod kept it, Blanchard would not desert it. Luce held it tight, while all the other Sophies were in the midst of the fray or as near the middle as they could get, As for the Kreshies, Cobb was there, Elton was nigh. Bartel 1 was too. Proff was powerful, Coffman was gritty, and the work of every man was only limited by his ability. The battle was now raging on the rocks, but what cared they for rocks. Class honors were to be won. Three-quarters of an hour had now passed when Cobb with a sudden wrench got possession of the cane and rushed from the scene of the conflict. Proff followed close behind much to the consternation of Cobb, who being a new Freshman imagined that he was being pursued by a Soph. 1 le threw the cane far across the fence. Thus was the first cane-rush ended. The pale moon looked down on a field where a mighty conflict had raged, a field strewn with the wrecks of manly apparel. Collar buttons, collars, hats, caps, ribbons, and what not, were scattered all about. Here were the wrecks of shattered hopes, there the remnants of high ambitions. The Freshmen went home rejoicing. They had won. The Sophomores were sad. They had lost. But the} assert that even to this day, the outcome would have been different if some of the Preps had not sided in with the Freshmen. To this the “ 03s ’ smile, and with a knowing look repeat. AVe won. ' ' THE FERRY DANCES Stern science declares that there are no fairies; that even Queen Mah with her chariot of an empty hazel-nut shell drawn by a fiery team of atomies is only a fantastic story. This is an age of realists. The Ferrys have been driven from field and wood until the last of the little creatures have taken refuge in an old deserted dormitory of a college on the western coast of North America. Years ago the building and all of its inmates were consumed by the empyreal substance, but later the elements all combined to reconstruct it for a home for the persecuted race. These, like all other fairies, venture out in the pale moonlight for a gambol on the green or a dance by the noisy brook, but, unlike any other fairies ever known, two or three times a year grow bold, light up the old manse; Bacchus appears with his mystic ladle and punch bowl, and— ' There the joyous light-foot Ferrys, Which hither came to hear the music sweet. And measure off their melodies, Do try to move their little feet. THE PROCTOR S BATH A feeling of discontent prevailed among the inmates of Kcina Hall. The proctor’s decision that certain young men had to leave the dormitory was the cause. Appeals of individuals and pe¬ titions of students for the retention of th.e expelled members were of no avail, and the discontent that was being manifested was sure to result in some act of revenge. About two o ' clock one night a half dozen disguised figures crept silently down the dark hall¬ way and paused at the proctor ' s door. A heavy stick was held across the casing and noiselessly wired to the door knob. And by the use of a wire the transom above the door was securely fast¬ ened down. The transom over the alcove was partly open. !n a few seconds the long, four-inch water hose was unwound and thrust through the opening above the proctor ' s bed. A moment ' s pause, a rushing sound along the hose and the next instant the water shot from the nozzle with a terrific force directly into the face of the unconscious sleeper. With a cry of fright he bounded from the bed and landed in the middle of the study room He ran to the door but found it locked from without, lie tried the transom but found it fastened. He attempted to enter the alcove but was driven back by the madly rushing stream. He gave a cry for help but received no response. Everything within the alcove was immediately soaked and the water gushed into the study room. In a few minutes the stream ceased and a drenched figure climbed over the transom into the hallway. After swiftly mounting a flight of stairs the proctor knocked at the door of an inspector ' s room and was finally admitted. Here he rested until morning, realizing that an investigation that night would be unwise. In the meantime the guilty parties were tucked away in bed trying to convince themselves that their act was justifiable. CALENDAR Sept. 26th—College opens for Preps.

This news surprised his friends somewhat. But in a few moments a definite conclusion was reached. lie had gone to Colfax to meet a “friend ' - Vs Colfax is the home of the county auditor, the superior judge and two justices the conclusion is evident. In accordance with this conclusion his friends, well provided with congratulations, com¬ plimentary remarks and rice, hastened to the depot before the arrival of the next returning train. Ii came in due time and scarcely had it come to a full stop when-and a lady appeared on the steps. As soon as they reached the platform there was a rush and eager faces behind extended hands gathered on all sides of him. The first one to approach close enough received a hearty hand clasp which was relaxed instantly as he heard the words: “l wish you much joy and happiness. No word escaped him. Mis hanging jaw and staring eyes seemed beyond his control, lie saw his plans fathomed, his movements anticipated. Dazed, bewildered, powerless, he stood one brief moment. Onward came his friends until he heard one of them calling her by his name. Then he started- in the wrong direction. Quickly his friends fell back and he saw his mistake. Abruptly he turned toward town, but they had not deserted him. They were making peculiar gestures and all about him were falling quantities of rice. It is almost needless to add that even yet a prominent member of the veterinary class can not see rice without a peculiar strange feeling. 126 f. iW VA W Ferry Ha.ll—11:59 P. M. For ail hour not a sound had broken the silence. The theme was just finished. Sud¬ denly there came three taps on the steam radiator. A quick reply from above, two windows went tip together, two heads ap¬ peared in the moonlight, and then— “Got anything to eat?’ “You bet. Come up! The windows went down again, the boy went up, the crackers went down—then the sound of the visitors’ footsteps died away, and again all was still. 128 A Free Ba.th It happened in Ferry Kail one evening, just as the lights went out. An ominous silence prevailed throughout the building: apparently all were in their rooms. Suddenly, the sound of rushing waters was heard by those in the rooms near the stairway. What did it mean? As if in answer to the question, a figure hastily emerged from the Hall, soaked and drip¬ ping from head to foot. It was the Watch¬ man. The good man was but faithfully making his rounds, however, his kind at¬ tentions were not appreciated. Greatest orv Ea.rtH!
