HOQUIAM MAY BE IN LEAGUE
Olympiad- Place- Likely to Be Taken
by Grays Harbor Town.
CENTRA LI A. Wash.. April . (Spe
cial.) It is probable that Hoquiam will
occupy the berth made vacant In the
State League by the refusal of Olympla
to support a team this year. Over 1350
was raised toward the support of a
i
team there, and it is believed the re
mainder of the required amount will
be secured by tomorrow.
Hoquiam would make even a better
city than Olympla to have tn the league
from the standpoint of gate receipts,
as the rivalry existing between the
two Grays Harbor cities is as keen as
that existing between the Twin Cities.
If Hoquiam does come Into the league,
the State League probably will be or
ganlr.ed In Cliehalis tomorrow night.

GIRL ATHLETES CONTEST
ST. HELEX'S HALL GYMNASTIC
DRILLS INTERESTING.
Fay Armstrong, 12 Years Old, Wins
High Jomp With 4 Feet 3
Inches Aptitude Shown.
After many weeK of practice under
the direction of Mis Iva Lee, late of
the Posse Gymnasium of Boston, the
girls of the Junior classes at St. Helens
Hall gave an extensive gymnastic ex
hibition In the school gymnasium on
Ford street, last night.
Many difficult drills executed in al
most perfect harmony and -representing
the folk dances of various nations
were the most interesting feature of
the evening.
The girls were evidently much in
the. spirit of the work and the way
they cavorted about the hall In the
progress of the dances showed the
amount of training and the ease and
aptitude which the girls have devel
oped. Another section of the programme
resembled a track and field meet. Sides
were chosen for a game of archball.
which Is about the same as an ouWoor
relay ' A ball Is used Instead of the
handkerchief, which Is carried by the
runners. , ,
Fay Armstrong won from Helen Kel
ley in the high Jump and rope vault
ing but her victory over Miss Kelley
was not great. The winner, 12 years
old. Jumped a height that would make
many a boy her age sit up and take no
tice for her record was four feet and
three Inches. In the rope vault she
went a trifle over six feet.
Lucrece Wood took all the honors In
the ladder exercises, her best feat be
ing a spiral slide from the top of the
ladder, about 20 feet high.
Margaret Delavan took first prize In
the marching; May Albee and Dorrls
Smith were the winning couple in the
Swedish dances; Hazel Smith and Dor
ris Smith took first in the folk danc
ing' Francis Boston and Alice Fox
captured first in the Gilbert's fancy
stepping, and Fay Armstrong took first
in the Jumping events.
DOUBLE APPEAL IS TAKEN
Both Parties Ask Reconsideration In
Booth-Kelly Timber Case.
A double appeal has been taken to
the United States Circuit Court of Ap
Petl. m the case of the United States
against the Booth-Kelly Lumber Com
pany, which was to forfeit five timber
claims they were alleged to have se
cured by fraud.
The decision of United States Dis
trict Judge Bean, in the former United
States Circuit Court, was that four of
the claims were valid, but the fifth was
declared forfeited to the Government.
United States District Attorney Mc
Court believed that a review of evi
dence by the higher court would result
in revising the four cases decided
aralnst the Government.
upon ii u lilc . -- i
trict Attorney McCourt that he had de- j
. . . .nl the ilf.nHanttt' attor- i

decided against them. Matters in

tirely questions of fact produced by
evidence and the deductions from these
is what the Court of Appeals will have
to reconsider.
