when they had broken awhitfietres, and
dropped the buggy pole to the ground,
Mr.. Henry decided to let them have
their own way, and alighted at the first

C. A. Bushnell and Albert Tyossem
are a couple of Ellensburg young men
who are touring the state on their wheels,
the outing being one for health and rec

day night, having made the run up from
Lewiston. One at the young men had
considerable Palouse soil over his anat-
omy when he reached the city of artesian
wells, it being due to the perversity OF
the Palouse bovine. Just before enter
ing the town they were coasting down
hill, and lowly cow stood chewing her
cud in the road. The bicyclists steered
around the animal, but just as one Of
them came alongside the cow made an

No bones were broken, but the rider
plowed deep furrow in the yielding
soil.
