Pat Grove Appveheaded.

Pat Grove, wanted in Omaha for
kidnapping of the son of the millionaire
packer, Cudahy, in 1899, was arrested

More Nineless Potatoes

Though a Troy farmer seems TO have
gained precedence in the press,
Montana man has also been experiment
ing along the line of vineless potatoes
AS usual, the Montana story goes US
one better A Great Falls man has
discovered a method Of growing pota-
toes without vines. His experiments
have been conducted in a box eight
feet square. In the bottom Of this
box layer OF a special preparation is
placed to the depth Of three inches,
and number Of potatoes planted there
in. Another layer Of the preparation
is scattered over these potatoes, and
then more potatoes are planted in the
same manner, and so on until the
frame is fled. The potatoes are then
watered and treated according to anew
method until maturity. The discover
er claims that the box may be built 10
almost any height, with layer after layer
of potatoes without affecting the pro
ducing qualities of his composition,
and that he can have new potatoes for
the market in any climate and any time
of the year. Those farmers in this
section who have no room on 1hei1
grain ranches for little patch Of pota-
toes should learn this new method oi
growing them. A box could be kept
in the hall, under the stairway or in
the corner Of the bedroom, convenient
for the cook and out of the way Of the
grain crop, where the vineless potato
could be foste1ed and the expenses o.
the household lessened considerably.

II PAYS to Advertise.

The News has always said it pays to
advertise. Now we know it. Know it
because we gave it practical test and
got results. Last week the News edi-
tor told his friends he was going to
Portland for an outing and would ap
preciate the donation of sandwiches.
And all day Saturday, before the ink
was fairly dry on the paper, the edi-
tors friends began to comply with the
request There were ham sandwiches,
cheese and deviled ham sandwiches,
sandwiches that were lean and some
that were fat, big and little ones, old
and young ones, until the News editor
had supply sufficient TO feed Coxy'
army for four days, and although the
editor left Sunday morning sandwiches
have continued to come in and at the
present rate there will be enough by
the time the editor gets home TO keeI
him alive until Christmas, in spite ol
the fact that the cooks where the force
boards, complain that our appetites
are deserting US. Verify, it pays tc
advertise.

New Butcher Shop.

Gust Johnson, the prosperous farmer
who constructed the brick building ad-
joining the Sullivan block, is preparing
to engage in the meat and produce
business in the new building. The
cold storage was installed last spring,
but at that time other business prevent
ed the opening OF the shop. Mr..
Johnson is installing modern apparatus
and the new shop promises to be a
credit to the town. He hiss quite a
bunch of stoc know at his ranch north
of town, and as soon as his farm work
attended to, the new shop will be
opened for business. Mr.. Johnson is
confident Of securing a good trade, al
though there are already two shops in
Troy, both doing good business.
He expects to have arrangements com
pleted and hopes TO be doing business
by the sixteenth Of this month.

Arrested His Own Cow.

We have heard Of the man who stole
his own clothes, but he wasn't in it
with one Of Troy's respected city Off
cials. Marshal Miller actually inpound.
ed his own COW, and didn't discover
the mistake until he had hunted over
town for some time in i effort to find
the owner TO collect the fine. 1t seems
that few days ago the marshal ran
across what looked, TO hi, official eye,
like thoroughbred Jersey, and as the
old COW was out LOCKING over the
town contrary TO the law rlovided in
such cases, he drove her UP 10 the
city pound and locked her VI. AS he
walked along behind the uld bossy
he says he thought her bell sounded
familiar, Dut as his COW is black, and
this COW appeared to be somewhat yel-
low, he proceeded to enforce the law.
Soon after the wayward critteI had been
safely landed, Mr.. Miller, upon prepsI-
ing description of the COW, thought
she acted rather familiar, and TO his as
tonishment discovered that his own
COW had been locked up. She had
been out in the rain fooling around the
grist mill where coating of -four had
given her that rich yellow color So
characteristic OF the Jersey.

Flour is Popular.

F. M. Green, manager of the local
mills states that so far they have been
unable TO supply the demand for their
flour. When the mill closed down a
few days ago TO make some necessary
repairs, he supposed they had flour
enough on hands to supply the trade
until December, but their stock is now
nearly exhausted. In four days the
local trade alone required 125 barrels.
Farmers are also laying in their winters S
supply, many of them taking as much
as ten barrels One thing that speaks
well for the fonr is the fact that the
local merchants are all handling it.
Wheat is coming in steadily now that
the roads have settled somewhat. A
lot OF the wheat that hao not been
properly cared for during the rain, is
considerably damaged. Atpresent the
company has about 5000 bushels oi
wheat in their warehouses al this point
and have shipped about 10000 bush
els, the shipping having been delayed
because OF the scarcity Of cars. MI.

New School House Needed.

Troy must have a new school house,
and from present indications must have
it by the beginning of the next school
year. The present building is fast aps
preaching the end OF its usefulness for
school purposes, and not only is it too
small, but for some time has been con-
sidered unsafe. This fact has been
recognized by the directors, who have
given the teachers orders to dismiss
school during windy days. The build
ing is leaning badly, being over foot
out Of plumb, and is disgrace TO a
town like Troy. It has been sug-
gested that the district begin at once
TO arrange for the erection of a com
modious brick school building, and
since a new building must be erected,
why not a beautiful and substantial
one? Besides. the present building is
dangerously unsafe.

Pool Room Evil.

In chapel talk at the college at Pull
man President Bryan explained the
attitude Of the faculty., board ofregents
and himself in regard to students Wis
iting the saloons and pool and billiard
rooms. He said the state expended
annually hundreds Of dollars on each
student enrolled The student then
is under obligations TO render to society
and to the state the highest ard the
best that is at his command. But the
path that leads TO the saloon is down
ward and not upward; IS toward slack
ness, unthoroughness, and incapability-
If the student fIequents the saloons he
is uniting himself for service 10 society
and to the state. The aim that prompts
student to enter college and the state
TO support the student are entirely dill
ferent from the attitude Of the student
in fIequenting the saloon. The two
ideas are incompatible and the
state college will not tolerate one of its
students relying on the state for an ed
ucation, entering a saloon Last year
President Bryan stated that any student
entering saloon under any circum-
stances would be Immediately dismissed
from college. He has taken the same
stand this year and declares that the
state can not afford 10 appropriate
money each year on students who
frequent saloons.

New Addition to Troy.

The work Of surveying and plating
the new addition to Troy will be COM
pleted within few days and final ar
rangements made to place the lots on
sale. The ground has been laid out
in conformity with the original town Of
Troy except that the lots are all fifty

lots and offer them for sale at public
auction after due notice has been
served; giving all an equal opportunity
to purchase. The sale will be made
on a basis OF one tenth cash with the

said a few days ago: No one
will run any risk in buying these lots
The state will stand back of the pur-
chaser and do all the fighting and will
guarantee to deliver the goods. +" II is
the desire TO hold the sale this fall but
it is possible the matter will not be
arranged before early spring.

REPORT OF
BRECkOHS
u. 5 District Attorney
Preparing Annual
Statement.

Yesterday United States District At
torney Breckons was engaged in MAX
ing up his annual report to the Attor-
ney,Ueneral, this being the time when
all the districts send the results Of the
years work to Washington.
my report will show that there has
been large increase in the business Of
the Federal Court in Honolulu during
the year just closed,'' said Mr.. Brock
ons. This applies to both the civil
and criminal ends of the business. And
it is worthy OF note that the civil and
criminal business of this district is
above the average of districts in the
United States
The report OF Mr.. Breckons will
show that the business of the Federal
Court, both civil and criminal, has
just about doubled in the past year. At
the beginning of business in the pres
ent year, there were eight criminal
eases pending. Sixty-seven cases were
begun during the year, and "a termi-
mated OF these, convictions were Sc
cured in ffty-one case, and there were
three acquittals, and ten cases mol
pressed There are still eleven cases
pending.
Last year, at the beginning of bust
ness. there were two cases pending.
Forty four cases were commenced, and
thirty-eight terminated during the
year. Of these, there were twenty
| seven convictions, two acquittals and
| nine mol -prossed. There were eight
eases left over to begin the new year.
IN the present year, there We're ST.
| 600 in fines assessed by the court and
| $1050 collected in cash.
FFThat is explained by the number OF
| internal revenue cases tried said Mr.
! Breckons. "In the case OF man con
| victed of illicit distil1ing, the lowest
| penalty is a fine of S1100 and imprison'
| ment for seven months. The man con.
| victed OF this 0ffense serves his time
| in jail, and having no money, simply
serves thirty days more and at the
| end of that time takes the pauper 3
oath And at that our collections OF
| cash for fines are remarkably large
| In some other districts, where as much
as $4,000 in fines has been assessed
| only fifteen hundred dollars have been
| collected

Lawyers Almost Come
10 Clash in Parker
Case.

Tt look Il II: J. E.cI~ent as though
Attorneys Kinney and Magoon would
have spat in the Parker ranch case
Yesterday afternoon. But it passed.
Eben Low was on the stand, of course,
and on the grill. Attorney Kinney
saw to that The matter under inves-
tigation at the moment was the sale
Of the Peabody lands to Carter, as
trustee for the Parker minor, and
Low had said that he understood that
Carter and Fred Wundenberg We're
acting together IT that deal.
"Do you say that they were acting
togethers' asked Kinney.
81 Object said Magoon. "This
can only be matter of opinion, any
howl
The objection was Sustained, and for
moment Kinney sat whirling his eye
glasses and whistling softly to him
self. Then he said: 81 would ask,
your honor, without the formality of
written notice, that the other side pro-
| duce a wireless message, sent from
Hilo, and reading about as follows:
Erred Wundenberg, Honolulu:
Have Henrigues hold up sale until
[ can reach Honolulu.
''(Signed) E. Low
81 have no knowledge of any such
| wireless MESSAGE began Magoon.
E'HoId on, Mr. Magoon. If you are
to make that statement, I desire that
| it shall be made under oath. We have
| secondary proof that that message was
| in your office on July 4 or 5. If you
| do not produce the message, we will
| produce our proof. :"
- do not remember anything about
such message said Magoon. But,
| if it is in existence, you can have it.
And while | cannot answer for Mr..
Wundenberg, ] do not doubt that he
will produce it if it is in his office. -
You are willing to accept this as
| sufficient notice?' asked Kinney.
Certainly answered Magoon.
| Then Carter's attorney turned upon
Low again, and proceeded to grill him
| upon the point as to whether the
stables on the Parker ranch were in
good sanitary condition. That issue
was still to the fore when eourt ad
| journed.
Earlier in the day Low had testified
that in his opinion Carter was largely
responsible for the rise in the price OF
beef having inundated the Metropol
itan Meat Company. Low said he hat
heard that Harry Won Holt was alst
partly responsible for this.

STANLEY DOLLAR LIBELs.

The cases of two Of the fifty Japa-
nese ibellants against the British
steamer Stanley Dollar were on trial
before Judge Dole In the Federal court
Yesterday. and the corridor looked like
a little Japan The eases were not con
cluded when court adjourned. The
Japs had taken passage on the steamer
for Victoria, and brought suit for dam
ages against her upon her failure to
clear for that port at once. George
Davis appeared for the libellants, and
E. C. Peters and John Cathcart for the
steamship. Stanley Dollar, the owner,
was in court, and was put on the stand
by Davis and admitted the receipt of
passage money for the Japs.
Collector Stackable was then called
as to why the vessel had not been
cleared. and his examination and cross
examination occupied the greater part
of the day. The court admitted, in
the course of the cross-examination,
that it was permissible for the steam
ship people to show, if they could,
that they had taken the passage money
with the plan of getting a license I'D
| this port TO carry passengers. The trial
of the cases will be resumed today.
