Strange Girts Tor King.

M. Le Page, humble tanner in. habiting the little town of Serge, France, bought the corpses of two horses killed at Place Rohan, Paris, by the bombs thrown at the young king of Spain. Le Page did not want them for the purposes of his profession, but being patriotic Frenchman and par ticularly abhorring the anarchists he exercised all his skill removing the skin of the animals to preserve the parts penetrated by the projectiles from the bombs. Then he made from them two fine rugs and without consulting any one wrote directly to Alfonso offering them as presents to the memory of his fortunate escape from death. The king wrote back explaining that a sovereign was not permitted to accept presents from private individuals ordinarily, but in view of the special circum- stances of the case he gladly received them and desired to express his warm est thanks, since it was the bodies of these poor animals that protected him and M. Loubet from the designs of the anarchists.

The biggest purchase of high grade tobacco ever made in the West by cigar manufacturer was made last Wednesday by Frank P. Lewis, Peoria Ill.,, for his celebrated Single Binder cigar. A written guarantee was given that the entire amount was to be fancy selected tobacco.

DINNER FAILS TOO TEMPTING
Israel Taylor Was Hungry, So He
 Emptied All Four.

"Ah wuz hongry, boss-Ah means jedge. yo' onnor. Ah wuz dat hongry l wud CT ct CT muel. Mer stummick sho did poster me-"
 Which was the excuse Israel Taylor offered for corralling the contents of four dinner buckets belonging to four of his brother laborers and quickly and incontinently consuming their con tents, says the New Orleans Times Democrat.
 "So you believe in the full dinner pail?" said Judge Fogarty. "Or, bet ter still, you compound your belief and multiply your political convictions by four. Perhaps, however, l am mis- taken-you may believe in the empty dinner pail, after all."
 "Ah reck'n dat mus be so, jedge, yo' onner," responded Israel, with serious look on his face. "Ah jes' cum- min long de street en l seed dem fo' dinner buckets stan'in' dah lookin' kinder lonesum like, en An ax merse'f, wat dem bucket doin' dah? Hit look like ter me dat somAbody mighty keer- less ter lef' dem bucket out dah all by dey self, en bout dat time mer stummick done begin fer ter poster me, en An jes' retch down en op'n one uvm en An seed CT whole big piece uv fried chick'n en some braid en gravy, en An jes' tuck'n tuck CT little bit CT tas'e, en hit tas'e so good An tuck'n tuck ernuther, en fus' ting An knows dey warn't no chick'n ner no braid ner no gravy lef' in dat bucket Den An look in de yuther buckets fer ter see eff dey mouter got in dah, en sho' huff dah dey wuz!

Dat all whu gotter say, jedge."
 "Well, it isn't all I've got to say" replied Judge Fogarty, crisply. If you're so hungry you can't leave other mems dinner pails alone I'll give you free board and lodging, where you can get enough work to justify your appe- tite. Five dollars or thirty days"

point supreme court decision in a

In locating the line between Union
and Umatilla counties, Kamela was
given to Union county and the settle
ment at the Woodard tollgate was
given to Umatilla county, for reasons
that presented themselves forcibly to
the boundary board.
County Surveyor John w. Kimbrell.
who represented Umatilla county on
the board is well pleased with the
work of the board and believes that
1t made an equitable division of land
along the boundary line and placed
the line where ii will be most econom-
ical and convenient for the residents
of both Umatilla and Union counties.
As most of the land owners and
residents of the Woodard tollgate set
tlement live in Milton and other por-
dons of Umatilla county, 1t was de-
cided that the entire settlement there,
for at least half mile east of the toll
gate proper, should be given to Una
tilla county, so there would be no
doubt about the residence or location
of any one in summoning witnesses or
jurors, or in assessing property
For the same reasons, the entire set
tlement at Kamela was given TO
Union county. although the old line
divided the village giving a portion
to Umatilla and a portion to Union
county. Heretofore nefghbors living
side by side in Kamela have voted at
different places, some at Hilgard in
Union, and some at Meacham in
Umatilla, and in summoning Jurors
and others needed in legal proceed
ings, it has been difficult to decide
where they belonged The matter is
permanently fixed now and all the set
tlement at Kamela, for a half nile
west of the village is given to Union
county.
All that remains of the work of the
board, before the line is made legal,
is for 1t to present report to the
next session of the legislature fo' its
final adoption, and then surveys can
be made and boundary monuments
erected.

PORTAGE MAY BE EXTENDED.
Largest River Boats May Not BE Able
TO Reach Rig Eddy.

The portage road may be extended
from Big Eddy, three miles into the
city of The Dalles. This matter is
now being agitated by the people of
The Dalles and vicinity, and it is pos
sible that it may be favorably consid-
cred by the state.
Owing to the fact that larger river
boats are to be used on the lower
river it may be possible that all the
boats plying between Portland and
The Dalles will not be able to reach
the Big Eddy and the portage wharf.
AT the present time all the boats in
use can make the trip easily. but IL
larger vessels are placed in commits
sion to handle the wheat crop this
year, 1t is thought to be doubtful
about their reaching the portage.
The state commission has formally
received the portage from the con-
tractors, although final payment of
$4,000 due on the contract will be
withheld for 80 days, according to
the contract. until all the specifica-
tions in the work have been thorough
ly gone over by the state board.
A meeting of the portage commits
sion will be held soon to consider the
matter of making the rates to be
charged on the portage.

er Information.
Commissioner Horace Walker re-
turned last night from Portland,
where he attended the good roads
convention and also visited and as
sisted at the Umatilla county exhibit
at the Lewis and Clark fair.
Mr.. Walker says that people send

them, in most cases no names of ex-
hibitor, classification, kind of grain
or fruit, what the wheat yielded or
tested or any other information is
given with the exhibit.
He suggests that people sending in
exhibits see that the name of the
exhibit. the name of the grain or fruit
where it was grown, how much 1t
yields, and all other information pos
sible be attached to the exhibits.
Exhibits are coming in slowly and
IT is the desire of the county court to
have every one interested in the mat

effort to increase the products at the

BOLD GANG CAUGHT
BOUNTY THIEVES OF
UTAH RUN TO EARTH.
Robbed the State of Large Sums
Through Fraudulent Coyote Scalp
Affidavits - Estimated That $780,
900 Has Been Stolen From the
State in the Past Year Thieves
Were Assisted by Deputy County
Clerks.

San Francisco, June 24.-In seek
ing to recover some OF the money
looted from the Utah state treasury
by a rapacious gang of bounty swindl-
ers the officials of the Mormon state
have traced $4,000 or $4,000 to San
Francisco.
The spoil was brought here by the
wives of two members of the ring
John German, with 20 aliases, and
John Meyers who is also plentifully
supplied with false names-both of
whom are in Salt Lake under arrest.
The two women are now in this city,
The money is supposed to be on
safe deposit in one or other of the
following banks, or in all of them:
The Bank of California, the Crocker-
Woolworth bank and the Union
Trust company. Under Sheriff John
C. Sharp, of Salt Lake City, who re-
turned to Utah on Sunday after spend
ing a fortnight here, had garnishee
orders served on the banks named,
prohibiting them from releasing the
money.
Utah has been the victim of gigan-
tic bounty frauds, having, it is esti-
mated, been swindled out of $780,
900 in II months. The ring is now
broken up and three of its members
are serving sentences on charges of
conspiracy to defraud the state. The
frauds were made possible by the
connivance of two deputy county
clerks, who paid bounties on the same
hides over and over again.
The law says that hides must be
mutilated as soon as the bounty is
paid and then handed back to the
person presenting them. The pro-
cedure of the gang was to first Sc
cure payment of the bounty from an
honest county official and then take
the same hides to one of the two
deputies who were standing in with
them in the conspiracy.
The bribed deputies would pass the
same hides time and again, and 1t is
said that bounty had been paid on
some skins 10 times. So brazen did
the gang become in the end that its
members collected the bounty with
out even presenting the skins.
At other times they collected the
amount of a hundred bounties on 10
skins. The bounty on coyotes is
$3.50 and that on wolves So. Thous-
ands of times the higher sum was
paid i'm respect of coyote skins
stretched and called wolf skins.
The same gang. with the same old
skins, previously worked the states of
Idaho, Nebraska and Texas.
1t is believed that the ring, when
by the Utah government,
was contemplating a raid on the CAL
ifornia treasury.
