ELECTION CASES.
Citizens Ticket Wins at Crested
Butte.

Judge IIetherington's court was
busy Monday with the Crested Butte
election contests
Mrs Susie Miller Of the Citizens
ticket contested the office Of town
clerk with James Jameson. Jr.. re-
publican. who had won ON the face
of the returns by one vote Tim
Bowling contested the mavorship
with George Shields, also republican.
whose majority was three. Dexter
T Sapp and Joseph II. Block repre-
scented Mrs Miller and Mr. Bowling,
while Thos G. Brown and Joe Ing
ham were retained by the republi-
cans
Ballot boxes from the three Crested
Butte precincts were opened by order
Of the court and recounted. In pre-
cinct No. ,, a discrepancy of three
votes was found, thus giving Mrs.
Miller a majority of two and putting
Bowling and Shields neck and neck
The question then was whether to
go ON with the cases, bring proof
and counterproof Of alleged Illegal
votes, carrying the case probably to
the supreme court or to compromise
and save this expense.
1t was decided to compromise and
this action seems to meet the APP
proval of everyone we have heard
mention the matter.
Mrs. Miller was acknowledged
elected Bowling and Shields agreed
to cast lots Tuesday afternoon for
the honor of presiding over the Elk
mountain metropolis. Shields drew
the blank from a hat in which Judge
Hetherington had put two slips, one
having the word elected written
upon it, Accordingly Tim is receiv-
ing the congratulation of friends.
and the swearing in Of some city
officers at the Buttes will be done

yourselves as to my responsibility If you
have anything in the way of real estate

place in my hands it will have my best
attention, and though you have no busi-
ness to place with me shall be glad to

eestions for Eastern advertising. If you

try please call and see me.
Wishing you all Merry Christmas

ago Just before going there he
was in Corvallis, at which time his
r, 1atives and immediate friends
were informed as to the serious
character of his malady. 1t was
then believed however. from the ad-
vice of physicians in Portl4nd, that
death was not to be expected SO
soon,

was continuous resident of Benton
county. He arrived here in 1852,
settling then on a farm on Greasy

ness. Later he was twice elected

west Territories, Canada, to reside.
He was born in Platt county, Mis-
souri,, in July 1s41. and lived to be
81 years of age. He resided in 'he
state of his nativity, until the spring
of 1852, when he crossed the plains
by OK team to Oregon.
Mr.. Wells was married in 1863
to Miss Esther Garrett, daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs Thomas Garrett.
The wife died about fourteen years
ago. The surviving sons and
daughters are, Ed. Lee, and Will

ia, Mrs. Colt of LaGrande, and

every effort of medical skill to cop-
troll.
The disease was aged 68 years
and 20 days. He came to Benton
County eighteen to twenty years
ago, and for a time resided in Cor
wallis and vicinity. Then he went

since occupied.

ber 22nd 1885 at Greifswold, Pom
erania Germany. After many years

Namhill county. The surviving
members of the family are, a widow
and the following sons and daugh'
ters: Mrs Alfred Bicknell of Benton
County, Mrs. Wi1fred Bicknel1 of
Oakland Oregon. a younger daugh-
fer at home, and a daughter and
two sons in California. The de-
ceased was a man of fine qualities,
and was held in high esteem where
ever known.

HOW oLDB ANN?
Trouble the new Puzzle Makes Cain
@9lsf WNs sSs q
it Raised in a School Board.

[ lF--zz + =.
| The age of Ann is vexed ques-
ton in many a Corvallis household
now. A we'll known housewife
was mixing up the dough for bis
cults when a neighbor woman came
| in and asked her how old Ann was.
Straightway the two began to fig
ure. They argued and figured OBJ
livious of the lapse of time until
the husband and children arrived
for dinner to find the two women
in hopeless discussion of AIMS
real age, with the fire out in the
kitchen stove. the dough still un-
kneaded. apd the old Nick to pay
generally. There is the story of
another woman who read the puz
! zle, seized pencil and paper and
labored with the figures until her
husband finally rescued her from
the exasperating calculations just
in time to save her from Mysteries.
But these instances are mild COM
pared to the trouble that the ques-
sion of AIMS age made in Kan
sas town. AS sent out in Wash
ing on dispatch the tale runs thus:
"Hiawatha, Kan. where the
song comes from. is disturbed over
"How old is Ann?" When the
query reached there every man.
woman and child in the place, lead
pencil in hand, began to figure on
the problem, H.
One bright school girl asked the
principal Of the public school.
'tHow old is Anr?" The principal
figured and then announced that
Ann is eighteen. The child went
home and told her father. bank
er, who is chairman of the school
board, that Ann is eighteen
mot for mine" answered the
proud father, who had figured it
out fourteen He filed charges
against the teacher alleging that
anybody who figures Ann out 18
is unfit to teach school
The school board wrestled with
the problem but was unable to de-
termine certainly whether Ann IS
eighteen or fourteen, but as the
man who made the complaint has
considerable influence the board
was disposed to call it fourteen and
dismiss the principal. The latter
wrote Representative Curtis today
requesting him to use his influence
with the school board to hold him
his job.
But no matter what the decis-
ion," he adds, II am convinced that
Ann is eighteen"
Mr.. Curtis is friendly to the prin-
cipa1. who has considerable inf1u-
ence in politics.
How old is Ann?" Mr. Curtis
asked his friends. They figured
and then advised Mr.. Curtis to see
Mr.. Courts, clerk to the committee
on appropriations. who is author
itv on figures.
Mr.. Courts dropped deficiencies,
and surpluses, and worked on the
problem for hours. He finally gave
as his verdict that Ann might be
either eighteen or fourteen.
THAT suits me- declared Mr..
Curtis I can give decision.
Both sides are. right"
