OUTCAST OFFICER MAKES WAR.
Most Daring Band In Manchuria Is a
Japanese.
ST. PETERSBURG, Nov. 17?The
"News of the Manchurian Army," pub-
lished in this city, declares that the
most daring band of Hunghuses in
Manchuria is commanded by a dis-
graced Japanese colonel, named Hi-
yodi, whose history is described as fol-
lows:
When the war broke out Hiyodi
asked to be readmitted to the army as
a private soldier. His request was re-
fused. He then declared, it is said, that
h would make war on his own account.He shipped to the Yalu in a junk, and,
making his way overland, obtained a
chieftainship among the Hunghuses by
distributing liberally forged paper
money. Hiyodi first operated on the
railway near Taschichac, but has now
gone north. He is a big, bearded man,
resembling a European, but dresses in
Chinese garb, wearing a crysanthemum
flag as a necktie. He invariably
charges at the head of his men, and
once shot down a subordinate for run-ning ahead of him.
Hiyodi has sworn to make war on
Russia as long as he has life. "Japan,"
he says, "may make peace, but I will
continue the war as long as I live. If
Russia is driven from Manchuria, I
will migrate to Siberia, and make war
there."

FOR JOBS IN STATE.
A. N. Brown, the Newspaperman, Is to
Be Mead's Private Secretary?
Gilham Slated.
A. N. Brown, the present city editor
of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, it is
announced on the Sound, is to be made
private secretary to Governor-elect
Mead. It is known that Mr. Mead
highly esteems Mr. Brown, who ac-
companied the executive on his tour
of the state before election. The posi-
tion of private secretary carries withit the rank of major on the governor'sstaff, besides paying a salary of $2000
a year.
Harry E. Gilham of Dayton is saidto be slated for assistant state land
commissioner, in recognition of the
work that he did in the campaign in
the interest of Mr. Mead.That Judge Stephen A. Callvert will
succeed Grant Neal as chairman of the
board of audit and control is consider-
ed a possibility among the state offi-
cials. Mr. Callvert Is the present state
land commissioner, and from the excel-
lent record made during the past four
years in the management of the state's
lands it was expected his administra-
tion would be indorsed by a renomlna-tion, but at the convention A. W. Ross
developed the greater strength, and it
is asserted Mr. Callvert will be re-
warded by the appointment to the
chairmanship of the board of control
at a salary of $1800 per annum, with
expenses while on the inspection tours.
In connection with appointments todeputyships, it looks as if the Scobey-
Madge combination at Olympia would
land at least two of the most import-
ant places. As the reward of indus-
try in the campaign, Attorney General
elect Atkinson has already announced
that A. J. Falknor is to become assist-
ant attorney general, and George G.
Mills, Thurston county's successful
candidate for state treasurer, will
probably appoint T. X. Henry his dep-
uty. Mr. Henry was chairman of the
Thurston county republican commit-
lee.It is generall conceded that the com- j
ing legislature will temporarily in-
crease the number of judges of the
supreme court to seven. This is con-
sidered necessary, for by the end of
the January term there will be a total
of 400 cases behind on the calendar, j
The present fall term is the longest onrecord, continuing till well along to-
ward the middle of December, leaving
less than a month's time before theJanuary term convenes.
It is generally believed about the
court room that Herman D. Crow, of
Spokane, will be the republican ap-
pointee. Judge Crow is a personal
friend of Governor-elect Mead, and
would receive his appointment as a re-
ward for stumping the eastern part of
the state in the interest of the guber-
natorial candidate. Crow was a can-didate for supreme judge before theconvention, and had the Mcßride, oranti-railroad faction, won out, would
have been nominated. However, after
Mead was nominated, he- swung into
line.

HE'LL "ROT" IN JAIL FIRST.
Julius Lotje, a Carpenter, Did Not
Send His Son to School.
SPOKANE, Wash., Nov. 17.?' I will
rot in jail before I pay that fine," ang-
rily announced Julius Lotje to JusticeHinkle, just after Lotje had been con-victed of not sending one of his chil-
dren to school six months during thepast year and had been fined $10 and
costs. Pursuant to his selection, Lot-je went to the county jail last night
to begin his sentence and save themoney which he felt had been unjustly
charged against him.Lotje is a carpenter and has been
living with his wife and two children
at Sl6O Browne street. Truancy Offi-
cer B. G. Peters and other school au-thorities have been after him hot andheavy because he was not sending hischildren to school, and he was arrested
several days ago for the offense, butwas permitted to go on his own recog-
nizance, pending the trial.
At the trial he started to put up abold defense, but was put to rout by
Mrs. Mary A. Monroe, principal of theLincoln school, the first woman teacherwho has appeared in police court inconnection with the enforcement ofthe truancy law. Others who gavetestimony damaging to Lotje wereProfessor Seth C. Wilson, principal ofthe Hawthorne school, and C. C. Hol-zel, principal of the Houston school.
Music Young Lotje's Bane.Mrs. Monroe testified that the Lotje
children were in the Lincoln school for
a while, but the boy had not attendedthis year the excuse having been given
that his father was displeased becauseof the low percentage he got in music.
Mr. Holzel testified that the boy at-tended his school from September toDecember of last year. Mr. Wilson saidthe boy had tried to get admission tothe Hawthorn school, but had been de-nied because he lived outside the dis-trict.
In his own behalf Lotje said he hadtaken the boy out of the Lincoln schoolbecause he had learned nothing whileattending the school, and indications
were that he would remain in the thirdgrade about 14 years if he attended theschool that long. The father said hehad been ill and was too poor to sendthe boy to the Houston school.
"I shall fine you $10 for this offense,"said Justice Hinkle.
Refuses to Pay Fine."Very well, fine me if you want to?
put me in jail. I'll stay there till I rotbefore I pay this fine."
"Put him in jail," said the court toBailiff Brockman.
Before starting for the county jail
Lotje asked that his family be notified
of the result of the case and of his de-termination to be locked up.
SEATTLE AFTER LARGE SUM.
HAVE GOOD BOXING CARD
ANDY KING WILL GIVE HIS
MANY PATRONS AN EXCEL-
LENT ENTERTAINMENT.
Main Event Will Be Battle for Honors
by Jack Curley and Joe
Roberson.
Manager King of the Walla Walla
Athletic club gives his word for it
that he has arranged a fine card for
Thanksgiving eve, Wednesday, No-
vember 23. In the line of boxing con-
tests he promises something that will
eclipse anything that has ever before
been pulled off in Walla Walla.
The program is to include three rat-
tling good preliminaries, a battle
royal, in which four colored men willparticipate, the whole to wind up with
a go to decision between Joe Roberson
of Los Angeles and Jack Curley of
Winnipeg, two of the cleverest andmost evenly matched mitt artists who
ever appeared at the local club.
Ed Terrell, who undoubtedly has thegoods, is to niix it up with a "dark
horse" from the garrison, in one of thepreliminaries and the event for severalgood reasons is likely to be a "hot"
one from start to finish.
In the battle royal, Sam Towks says
he can only see things coming one di-rection and the way he is throwingbaggage around the Hotel Dacres theselays to keep in training for the event
has increased his number of backers.Regarding the big event of the eve-
ning both Mr. Curley and Mr. Rober-
son say, "just wait and see." Each one
is confident of getting the decision
and both men are now training hard
for the "go." Roberson. says that his
arm that was injured during his last
go is now all right and he expects to
enter the ring "strong" on the evening
of the 23d. There is no doubt about it
but that this contest will be well worthseeing.
Manager King thinks it will bestanding room only at the club house
next Wednesday night.

SEATTLE, Wash., Nov. 17.?Thechamber of commerce will undertake
to have a bill passed by the cominglegislature, whereby money derivedby the state from the sale and lease of
fidelands shall be set apart in a special
fund to be used for the improvement
of Seattle harbor and to reclaim up-ward of $1,000,000 derived by the state
from this source and used in the pay-ment of general fund state warrants.To this end it may be necessary to
have an expert accountant go to Olym-
pia and examine the books of the stateland commission to ascertain just howmuch of Seattle tideland money hasbeen used for other purposes than im-provement of the local harbors.
Collected Under Old Law.Several years ago the legislature
passed a law that all moneys re-ceived from the sale and lease of state
tidelands within a municipal corpora-tion should be set apart for the im-provement of the harbors of that cor-poration. At the beginning of Govrenor
Rogers* administration this act wasamended so that these funds weretransferred to the general fund account
of the state. At the time the transfer
was made there were several hundred
thousand dollars to the credit of Se-
attle harbors, and since then the state
has received like funds, until the to-tal it is believed, will reach nearly
J 1,t>00,000.
