Johnson, directors of school district No. 106, of Umatilla county, render the following decision based opon testimony heard before the said board: First; we find that the said Isaac H. Gobbell did assault and beat one Ray Etter without sufficient cause or provocation. "Second; that the said Isaac H. Gobbell was angry and made no In vestigation to find out who was to blame or who started the trouble. "Third; that the said Isaac H. Goeb bell did use partiality in meting out the punishment. "Fourth; that these findings are sufficient reasons why the said Isaac H. Gobbell should not continue leaching the school." However, "the said Isaac H. Gob bell" was not content to accept the w . wic uiicvima an iiiiui tin u ; accordingly took advantage of his : right to appeal his case to the county .- superintendent. The same was done In a brief which might pass as a su ; preme court document. Among the . many points upon which the directors - "erred" are the following: -"trie school board erred In finding that the teacher, Isaac H. Gobbell, assaulted and beat Koy Etter without sufficient cause or provocation. "The school board erred In finding I ment to continue the work. DIED AT 116 YEARS OF AGE. that the said Isaac H. Goebbell was John Hughes of Grungevillc, Oldest on Pacific Coast. A special from Grangevtlle, Idaho, to the Lewlston Tribune, says of the death of an aged ploner: John Hughes, aged 116 years and who was the oldest man on the Pa cific coast, died at 4 o'clock this af ternoon at his home here. The aged gentleman has been failing rapidly for several weeks and for many days It has been realized that he could not recover. His death was due to no particular ailment but Instead simply to old age. Almost up to the hour of his death his mind was clear and dur ing the weeks that he has been con fined to his bed he has been able to eat heartily. His funeral will be held tomorrow. Accurate data as to the birthplace of Mr. Hughes Is not available, but he was a native of either Kentucky or Tennessee. He was one of the men who participated in the stampede to California, and men who knew him In California In the year 1850 stated he was then an old man. He followed the mining stampedes Into Oregon and later came to Idaho during the early sixth's. For a long period he was in the Warren country and he came to the Camas prairie In Atlantic City, Jan. 17. An abso lutely fireproof hotel. 1? stories high, built without a single brick, steel beam, girder or column, Is Atlantic City's latest novelty. The like of this structure Is not to be found anywhere else. For various reasons one being that the noise of erecting a steel frame building would have driven away guests from adjoining hotels the builders and architects were called upon for plans by which It would be possible to put up a structure 326 feet long and 100 feet high, without the racket made by steel riveters and stone workers. The first exclusively hollow tile and cement building on a large scale Is the result. The necessity for keeping compara tively quiet was only one trouble of the builders of this architectural won der. At the very outset the builders, the National Fireprooflng company, were confronted with a foundation problem which was finally solved by driving 1300 piles Into the sand of the beach by Jettylng. On this foundation a frame of con crete uprights and girders, strength ened with steel rods, was raised. Next came the walls and floors, all of fireproof hollow tile. Outside the tile Is pebble dashed, and makes a very handsome appearance. Inside the plaster Is applied directly to the tile. In the floors hollow tile Is also used between reinforced cement, thus sav ing weight and making of the trans verse, as well as the upright parti tions so many Impassable fire bar riers. Comparatively low cost, great sav ng In time and fireproof qualities un pproached In any other form ot con structlon, are the special advantages claimed for this new style of bulki ng. Beginning work on June 17th. the uunuers were able to promise to complete the Job so quickly that the hotel could be furnished and ready ror business on February 1st. Note- orthy features of the new seashore palace will be that every room will have a bath and a bay window. There are two sun parlors, one 25 feet wide and heated by six elaborate fireplaces, overlooking the board walk, and another running along the length of the hotel. But from the viewpoint of the hotel patron, the best thing about this new hostelry is that It cannot burn. Engineers and build ers are more deeply Interested In the novel features of construction devel oped In this hotel (the Marlborough- Blenhelm), and many experts have been here to Inspect It. the term while correcting Charles Parrls and Roy Etter. "The school board erred In finding that the said Isaac H. Gobbell used partiality In meting out the punish ment on Roy Etter and Charley Par rish. "The school board erred In not finding that If Charles Parrls did not receive as many strokes as Roy Etter, the cause was that of the cracker of the whip flying off Instead of a par tial administration of punishment. "The school board erred in not finding . that it was purely an acci dent if any part of the switch touch ed any part of Roy Etter's head or face during the punishment "The said school board erred In not finding that there Is an old grudge between the Parrlsh family and the . Etter family and that the said Charles .Parrlsh and Roy Etter have been getting Into trouble before the time for which they were whipped on De cember 11. 1905. "The school board erred and c i mltted error In bringing Into this trial a vast deal of childish reports which had no connection with the case In- volved. "The said school board erred and! committed error In taking a decided stand against the said Isaac H. Gob bell all the way through the said trial as their questions In the direct ex amination of all the witnesses down to Charles Parrlsh, and the cross-examination of him and the remaining witnesses will show." So far no decision has been render . ed by County Superintendent Welles, as he desires to see the testimony be fore passing upon the case. The de tailed evidence ha been sent for and when received the case will be thor oughly Investigated by the superintendent. 1S72, since which time he has made his home here. For years he followed the occupation of sawing wood. He was a man of fine habits and was re snected by everybody. He has no known relatives. A Modern Miracle. Truly miraculous seemed the re covery of Mrs. Moille Holt of this place," writes J. O. R. Hooper, Wood ford, Tenn., "she was so wasted by coughing up puss from her lungs. Doctors declared her end so near that her family had watched by her bed side 4 8 hours; when, at my urgent re quest Dr. King's New Discovery was given her. with the astonishing re sult that Improvement began, and con tinued until she finally completely re covered, and Is a healthy woman to day."

Mrs. Whitman, of Montpeller. re cording secretary of the State Feder ation of Women's clubs, writes the state federation grows slowly but sub stantially. The first club to come In to mombershlp in 1906, is the Vil lage Improvement society of Idaho Falls, with a membership of 150. This Is a good beginning. A new club at Twin Falls Is shortly to be added. The year books are being prepared and will soon be iBsued. It Is confidently expected that the federation will have a membership of more than 30 clubs by January, 1907, the end of the sec ond year. Boise Statesman.
