any good, but 1t might have eased my
conscience little.
As she spoke carriage drove up to
the door, and Harry Martin sprang to
the pavement and came in.
"Good morning, Miss Perkins," he
said in his brisk, whole souled man
ner. "Some roses this morning? All,
those are beauties; how many have
you? Three dozen, only? Well, I
want them all. Here's my card, which
you will drop in the box, and send
them to"
And he wrote an address on tag
lying on the counter.
"This address. I've left mother in
the carriage and she's afraid of the
horse, so I'll hurry out. Good-morn-
ing, Miss Perkins.
And Mr.. Martin was out and away
before Miss Perkins had hardly recov.
cred her breath.
She looked at the address he had
left:
"Miss De Jones, Liberty House,
City"
And then Miss Perkins lost her tenn
per.
"Why, the impudent puppy!" she
cried. eff he thinks I'm going to send
those flowers to that-creature, he's
mistaken He's crazy, he is. won
der if his mother knows?"
And then out of pure vexation she
sat down in back room and had a
good cry.
A few moments later she came out
and calmly put the roses in q box,
dropped Mr.. Martins card among
them, tore into little bits the tag he
had addressed, and with a firm hand
wrote o new one, which she placed on
the box; then put it with half dozen
smaller packages, which Nero, the
factotum of her establishment, would
deliver. Then Miss Perkins regained
her habitual smile and gentle self
possession, and went about hummlng
little snatches of happy songs and
seemed as one conscious of having
done good deed.

But since that tellpestuous interview,

her roses for the decoration of the

several Westfeld ayeethearts jealous
and unhappy.
And Mabel RichoY was not happy

THE GRAND COULEE.

In Douglas county is located the
Grand Coulee, one of the natural
curiosities of eastern Washington,
of which the following description
appears in the Seattle Times:
Leaving Coulee City, one sees in
the distance the opening to Grand
Coulee. The appearance of the
mouth at distance is that of q
number of houses or the like, but
as one drives near the opening as

lanes Hobart a farmer living
about six miles east of here, was
robbed of four sets of harness last
Friday night. Deputy Sheriff
Bundy was detailed to work up the
case and at once set to work. Sat
nrday and Sunday he tracked the
guilty parties to Vollmer, where he
found them to be three strangers.
He kept close watch over them and
as they moved camp Tuesday even
inc followed them to the Harland
nlace where they camped for the
night. 1he sheriff, in company
with Chas. Hobert, clio 5ely watched
their camp and at II o'clock two of
the trio took three horses and start
ed back toward Vollmer, About 2
o'clock. W edne8day morning they
returned to camp, bringing with
them the stolen harness. AS they
came up the sheriff placed them
under arrest and then went for the
third. They were placed In the
county jail Wednesday morning,
after having q hearing before Judge
Anderson. John Cremer and ".
H. Weaver, the men captured, hay

been favored by seasonable weather,
and the distribution of products
has made fair progress, not yet re-
duclng retail or wholesale stocks
far enough, however, to materially
improve the position of industries.
These stocks have apparently been
large ever since the fever of buying
last fall, and the actual buying for
consumption smaller than has been
generally realized. Hence all the
great industries are embarrassed by
lack of adequate demand, and in
some cases the accumulation of
goods in anticipation ofdemand has
gone about as we'll as it can.
Strikes of some importance are
threatened in the building and win
dow glass trades, and the working
force is lessened by stoppage of some
of the factories because orders are
light. Again, prices of commodities
are on the whole lower than ever
before, having declined about 2 per
cent, since April l and II per cent.
since July, 1890, or October, 1892.
The fall in manufactured products
is little less than it was April /,
but in farm products speculation is
swayed by trifling influences when
markets are very narrow
The recent advance checked buy
ing of wheat, and exports for the
week we're only 1,OS1,264 bushels,
flour included, against 1,768, 837
last year, while Western receipts
were 2,094,657 bushels, against
1857 ,40S last year. Since July /.
Atlantic exports, including flour,
nave been only 72,90O,O00 bushels,
against S7,5O0,000 last year to date,
though western receipts have been
about 100000 bushels, against
139,000O00 to date last year. With
generally fair prospects as to win
ter wheat, the price has dropped
about &c, nearly half the rise based
on gloomy reports early this month.
Corn receipts continue heavy, and
the price is a shade lower.
Sales of wool included about half
a million pounds Australian and
some domestic for export, but were
it only 4,063, 100 pounds, and for
three weeks have been 1927, 700,
Of which 5,O70,3 were domestic,
against 17,4O9, 800 last year, OF
which 1922, 800 were domestic.
Neither pig iron nor manufac-
tured products have improved in
demand as yet, though further COM
binations have raised the prices of
rods, bar iren, to %1.2O, while steel
bars sell at $1O5 and nails are to
15c higher after May |. Brokers
at Pittsburg are still selling steel
billets zoe below the pool prices,
though it was formed more than
three weeks ago, and Bessemer pig
has decl ned there to %13. Struc-
tural angles are a shade lower,
though some good contracts are ex-
pected. Lake copper is offered at
$1.65.

GOOD OUTLOOK FOR WHEAT

GOOD OUTLOOK FOX " HEAI
The latest advices from Australia,
says the New York World, indicate
that instead of exporting wheat to
England the Australian colonies
will have to import very consid-
cradle amount this year to make
good their own shortage. One es-
innate puts the amount they will
demand from abroad at about one
hundred thousand tons, aud as the
Argentine crop is also reported
heavily short, the pressure of com
petition with our wheat in London
markets will be very considerably
relaxed In what seems to have
been year of average productive
ness, Victoria harvested a little
over ten bushels per acre from
100000 acres Of wheat, exporting
that year bread stuffs to the value
Of S5,300,OOO. In the same year
South Australia exported 181, 1861
tons Of breadstulfs, chiefly wheat
exports. Its exports range from
$3,500,000 to SIS, 100000 ii year. In
the Same year that Englan | bought
24,656,0)0 hundredwei1h ii wheat
from the United States she took
$4,000 hundred weight from her
Australian colonies and 13.272,0O0
from the Argentine republic. Her
Australian ald Argentine imports
almost exactly equalleI tho 'e from
Russia, while from India sh" bought
only 100000 hundred Vel 5ht. If
1t turns out that both the Austral-
asian and Argentine crops are
heavily short the effect viii be
marked, as they furnish England
about % per cent. Of her foreign
wheat. This estimate does not take
hour imports into consideration,
and while nearly all of the flour
used in England comes from Am
erica, we are not so completely mas

rocks rising higher at every step
on either side. They may be 500
feet at the start, but grow rapidly,
and soon they are 900, 700, 500 and
1000 feet high. The walls are clear
cut, we'll defined, perpendicular as
the sides of house, except at the
base, where through ages probably
detached masses have fallen, until
at the present time it resembles the
mounds of ruined granite and mar

Grand Coulee is two miles wide
at its narroWest, seven miles at its

however, the same-those perpen-
dicular sides hold their own with
perfect regularity. They might
have been dug to order, SO mathe-
matically perfect are they Grand
Coulee is an immense depression in
the Big Bend plateau. Driving in
at the mouth there is but one point
where a wagon may wind it's tor
tuous way out from its deep depths
in the whole twenty-five miles of
the Coulee's length. Only one
other place is there where a horse
can climb the rugged sides to the
extensive plains above. In the
early days the first settlers utilized
Grand Coulee as a great pasture.
They drove their stock in, put
man at the mouth, another at the
head, and the gates were closed.
Now Grand Coulee is occupied by
ranchmen who are most largely in
the cattle business, having from
$50 to 800 head each. They raise
truck in Grand Coulee, but irriqa-
ton from the lakes within it and
from springs that are but too few in
number is necessary. On the big
plain above the gnest Of wheat is
grown without irrigation. Here is
remarkable contradiction of
nature in her wild moods in other
parts of the country. Usually IN
the depths is found the water, the
grass, the vegetation in abundance,
and upon the plain above is fierce
heat and parched soil. This is re-
versed at Grand Coulee Only
scattering bits ofsage brush, on the
level, and about the lakes snatcheS
of hardy shrubs of other species
grow That is all. The huge walls
are bare, brown rock, without a
semblance Of vegetation, and at GER
tain times, when the bright sun
strikes their stratifed sides, there
can be seen a mingling and mix
ture of tints and colors not ulike
those seen in the rainbow.
In the Coulee there are numerous
lakes, some that go dry in summer,
and a rank growth of grass springs
up in such, from which is harvested
fine hay. Settlers in Grand Coulee
have to 60 far up and enter side
Coulee known as Big Canyon after
fuel. "Bull pine grows in sutli-
cient quantities for all needs. Big
Canyon, branching off from Grand
Coulee, extends a short distance,
when it strikes the Columbia river
gorge at nearly right angles, the
river being about 400 feet below the
BID Of Big Canyon.
In Grand Coulee is Steamboat
rock, massive basaltic mass that
covers about 800 acres, and is fash
toned like a big side-wheel steamer.
