A Slight Predicament.

B. +. Nye, J. n. Scott and H.
X. Hays went to kiona Sunday.
There they constructed raft and
sta rted down the Yakima in order
to better way lay the wiley ducks
which they were bent OF extermin-
ating i'll numbers beyond oornputa-
ton. They floated down OH their
craft and all went we'll. MANY a
squawking web foot terminated its
career OIL that fateful Sabbath.
The SUI began to hug close to
the western hills as the intrepid
navigators approached the head of
of the Ken,lewick canal. Nye and
Scott decided to land OH the south
side of the stream leaving Hayes
to paddle the raft down to the dam.
On arriving lie found he could not
effect a landing OH the south side,
and tack to the terra firma ON the
north. They then strapped their
game OIL their backs and started
for the fish traps a couple of miles
below where Hayes could cross
and join his companions. They
followed the sinuousity of the
stream: darkness overlook them.
Scott and Nye reached the fish
traps and waited in vain for Hayes.
They struck out and after several
hours wandering reached Duffey's
place where they were fed and
housed for the night.
Hayes was tramping alone
on the other side of the stream to
gain the meeting point. He took
his bearing towards a bright star
that flirtingly twinkled at him in
the east. Clouds ofscured it and
he lost his direction. Almost FAM
ished from thirst he attempted to
crawl down the river bank to get
drink. He was precipitated head
first into a dry river bed. He
scrambled out to resume his search
but was entanglcd in a t,ille densely
covered with brush and water knee
deep.
Two hours were spent in getting
out of the tulle and upon dry land.
He noticed several trees near by
and under one friendly bush by
which he would camp until morn
ing. He laid down beside it. The
gun he carried was empty having
used up the shells in signalling to
his companions. Quick as a wink
the bush swelled to the size of
mountain. beloved and struck off |
at neck breaking speed i'll one dir
ection and Hayes with his empty
gun and cold chills spinning along
his backbone, in another. He had
disturbed the siesta of peaceful ru-
minant.
Hayes ran smack against Nc
Cauley's house, where he remained
until morning. At g a. IN the
party reunited at the fish traps and
footed it into Kennewick.
1t is rumored that they are spend
ing their evenings writing dime
novel entitled, Rafting OH the va

Otto Kitzman, who has con-
Quoted the Kennewick Market for
the last two months, died at the
hospital in Walla Walla last Satur-
day from blood poisoning. About
two months ago he injured his
hand and it swelled considerably,
causing him a great deal of pain.
It healed to some extent, but always
gave him more or less trouble.
Later he complained of feeling quite
bad generally, and about two weeks
ago he went to Walla Walla, pre-
sumably for only couple of days,
to consult a physician. He went
to the hospital and grew rapidly
worse, the skill and care of the
physicians proved unavailing' His
brother, Frank Kitzman, is sup
posed to be somewhere i'll Idaho
but his whereabouts have not YET

was returned undelivered. He wa
