mony. From Kennewick, County
Attorney-elect Anderson will go to
testify as to the validity of the
signers from that precinct, and M.
w. Smith of this city, formerly of
Kiona, will testify to the same fact
i'll reference to the signers from that

H. I. Patterson of Patterson pre-
cinct have been notified to con to
Prosser and accompany the dele
CATION to North Yakima to give the
required testimony from that local
ity.
Judge Rigg shows no disposition
whatever to place any obstacles in
the way of the formation of the
county. All he wants is judicial
knowledge of the fact that the con-
stitution and the statutes have been
complied with in reference to the
petitions and population. This is
necessary not only to protect the
superior court, but also to protect
Benton county in the future if any
question should arise as to the 1e-
eality of the division. It is ex-
pected that all the testimony re-
quired will be given in half hour,
When Judge Rigg will issue a de-
cree declaring that the law has
been complied with, notify Govern
or Mead of the fact and he will
issue the proclamation declaring
Benton county created. This is
the last and final proceeding for
county division and if no compli-
cations arise, and none are antici-
pated, the superior court will place
the seal of approval OH the work of
Legislature by Friday evening

Their Progressive Cow rlilking.

On Thanksgiving day Poison
Carrots and the hired man gave
a progressive COW milking. Each
guest struggled through the
snow, leading a COW, which was
included in the invitation. The
COWS were stood side by side in
the straw barn annex. Poison
Carrots announced that he and
the hired man would act as judges
and that his mother-in- law would
would act as referee, the referees
duties being to carry the milk to
the house, where a large churn
was located. The prize was a
clumsy looking calf Of the meat
market variety. Five mixers
were chosen. Poison called
time and the exercises start
ed. At the first "go off, COW,
which had never been MIXED
away from home before, reached
out quickly and distinctively with
a hind leg and caught the hired
man on the shin. He yelled like
a cracked school bell, which so
frightened the rest of the COWS
that they began to get nervous
and kick the mixers and the
pals around the straw shed.
This broke up the party and
when Poison saw what the end
was going to be he got mad and
discharged the hired man, but
not being able to pay him off,
hired him over again, after
which he took great pleasure in
throwing him out into a snow
drift. This caused i'll feeling and
the hired man went to the house
and ate the piece of turkey which
was Poison's particular choice
At dinner, which was served or
the quiet, unbeknown to the
guests, Poison noted the absence
of his part of the turkey and &C
knowledged his defeat. Afte!
dinner brown bread and cisterl
water were served to tn
guests and they departed fo:
home leading their unmilket
COWS. Poison Carrots and tn
hired man played checkers unit

The following, said to have

her to vouch for it's truthfulness.

Hope, N. D., Dec. g. Miss Ella
Thompson, who apparently died
a week ago, has come to life and
is now we'll as ever. Her mother
refused to have the supposed
lifeless body buried, claiming it
was a case of suspended anima-
ton, and that the girl would wake
up in good time.
More than week ago the girl,
who is II years of age, was at
tackled by a mysterious malady,
which the doctors we're unable to
diagnose. Finally her heart
ceased to beat and she was pro-
nounced dead. The thing that
puzzled the doctors was that her
cheeks remained pink. and. her
flesh firm.
While a number of her friends
were sitting near the coffin in
which the girl lay, she sat.up rub
bed her eyes and asked for some
thing to eat. Half an hour later
she was walking around as usual.
Mrs. Thompson, mother of the
girl, had a somewhat similar ex
perience Is years ago. She ap-
parently died and was placed in
coffin for burial. Geo. Thomp-

she had married Thompson.

GOV. PENNYPACKER'S FINE
 LIBRARY TO BE SOLD

From the Philadelphia Public Ledger. Philadelphia is the recognized mart for

 It was mentioned to Governor Penny
 packer the other day that it was remark able that the chief magistrate, the chief Justice and the attorney general of the commonwealth should be selling their lit erary and historical collections.
 Tell those who say that said the governor, that it Is an evidence of the honesty of the state officials They are obliged to sell their books and pictures in order to live, their salaries not being sufficient"
 If is estimated by Stanlslaus V. Hen kels, who will catalogue and sell the governors library, that 1t will net the
 latter about S100,000. It cost him less than s2O 900 probably. Some of the governor friends believe that he intends to retire from public life after his present term and that the sale of his library Is neces- sary to give him the income which he | desires for that purpose. Of the other | hand 1t Is said that both the governor
 and the chief justice, knowing that their | literary and artistic possessions will be in | great demand after their death, have de- cided to be their own executors
