Alex. Sifers departed for Mis-
souri, Saturday to pay visit to
his old home. Alex. is an old tim
er in this part of Idaho, and at one
time he was a pony express rider
on the plains. He has hunted in
dams and all kinds of varmints in
the mountains, and loves a Joke
even if it is on himself. A few
days ago he was visiting with
Judge f. n. Uhrlaub at Riverside,
and as they are both ardent hunt
ers they went over on the south
side OF Snake river to kill few
deer, During the day they separ-
ated, and about sun down Alex.
started for Riverside, which he
thought was about IL miles dis
tant. He was on horseback and
travelled at a good gait, but it soon
commenced showing and became
very dark. After three or four
hours he discovered that he was
riding parallel to a high pole fence.
He reasoned that the fence would
lead to soma habitat on and fol-
lowed it. He also noticed that the
trail grew broader all the time.
After following the fence for an
hour or two, Alex got tired and
concluded to camp. He tied his
horse to the fence and found few
sticks and made a little fire. He
also found a couple of boards which
he leaned against the fence, MAX
ing little shelter under which he
stood, cold, hungry and tired, until
morning. AS soon a. he could see
in the morning he discovered that
he was in big circular corral.
His horse had gone in through the
gate which was open, and had fol-
lowed around inside the fence for
good part of the night. But the
worst OF it was, the corral was only
about 800 yards from the warm,
comfortable home of Sam Johnson,
the cattle man. whose hos iitality
is unbounded. Alex. reached Riv-
erside that evening where he found
the Judge all right. The next day
they put out some traps along the
wall rocks, bal ed for coyotes and
bobcats. A day or two afterwards
John Sch' oler told them that he
had seen the tracks OF big bob cat
and it was dragging trap with it,
so they went to lock at their traps
They found two traps undisturbed,
and the judge went down to the
river to shoot some ducks. He had |
a double barrel gun but only two
cartridges. Alex. welt TO look at |
the other trap which was in the
big sage brush close to the smooth |
wall rock. He found where a cat |
had been paving the ground, but |
could not see the cat until there |
was a hiss and saarl. One hor-
rified glance showed Alex. that he |
was almost standing on a big cat
that was ready to fight. With one
Jump Alex. WAS up the wall rock
about five feet where he clung with
the tenacity OF a lizard, and yelled
to the Judge to "come and kill it,"

the gun were discharged leaving
him without cartridges. But he
had lots of courage and rushed to

TELLS Of BRIBERY IN
LAND FRAUD CASES

Portland. Ore. Dec. al. w. Hell
dreke of Detroit, Ore, was the princi-
pal witness in the land fraud trials.
He related how he was induced to
countenance crime by the acceptance
of a bribe, which he said was paid to
him by S. A. d. Puter, one of the de-
fondants in the case. Puter. he said,
agreed to give him certain sums OF
money if he would assist in securing
the lands on section III. Witness
said he objected. for the reason that
there were no improvements on the
land in question.
"Puter told me-" continued the Wit
ness, that I could not get inO trcu-
BILE, because he knew Congressman
Binger Hermann and United States
Senator Charles w. Fulton, and that
there was no danger. He said that
Just as quick as he could get the pa

substitute for coffee and in this posi-
ton he is presenting theories that tend
to make the average coffee drinker
afraid of his beverage.
The Postum Cereal advertising man
is an alarmist. He insists that coffee
is a form of dope" solely calculated by
its stimulating effects to upset the
strongest and most robust bundle of
nerves that ever performed their func-
tions in the human body. His knowl-
edge Of the psychology Of advertising,
as well as its practical application, is
an open book to him-well, he is selling
his peaches.
In the meantime. what is the coffee
importer doing to counteract the bale
full effects of the Postum Cereal adver-
tiser? Practically nothing. Coffee ad-
vertising is almost unknown. Coffee is
bought by housewives principally upon
a traditional name or a brand that has
produced a satisfactory beverage. Be
fore the days of competitive advertising
this was well and good, but as matters
now stand coffee is losing a certain
percentage Of sales. not because of it's
inferiorty or its superiority. relatively
speaking. but because a new prophet
has arisen who is crying aloud through
out the land-"Coffee is poison"
From the standpoint of the unpreju-
diced observer, it would appear that
unless those who market the berry that
makes this delicious beverage, quickly
awaken to the fact. that the very prin-
chile of coffee drinking-not the brand
lis being attacked, there will come a
time when coffee consumption will be
materially decreased by the inroads
made upon it by the progressive, act
