JOHN BAcHTOLD COMES IN AS
VICTIM OF A JOKE PERPE.
TRATED BY FRIENDS.
Compelled to be the Host of a Party
Of About Fifty Persons Sunday
Afternoon.

The next time that John Bacntold
intends to have a little dinner for a
few of mis- friends he is going to pledge
secrecy of those whom he will invite.
This determination on the part of Mr..
Bachtold was brought about through
a genuine surprise that he was given
Sunday evening.
Mrs. Bachtold and children are in
Portland seeing the fair and Mr.. Bach
told and several other we'll known
German residents, whose families are
also away from home, have been
boarding at a restaurant. Saturday
evening Mr.. Bacntold proposed to his
| friends that on Sunday evening he
would prepare chicken dinner if they
would consent to partake of the same.
They agreed and the hour for the din
| ner was set. He is somewhat of a
cook and Sunday he put in nearly the
entire day getting the meal ready for
his guests.
| In anticipation of the great feast
| one of those invited incidentally re-
marked to a friend that he was to as
sist Mr.. Bacntold in devouring the
good things that the gentleman mad
prepared. AS the friend had not re-
ceived an invitation he conceived the
hot u h1 al 20
have some fun with Bachtold. During
the course of the day he called up by
Representing himself as Mr.. Bachtold
ne gave them pressing invitation to
| the dinner. Some of them had al
ready made other arrangements, but
finally consented to accept the invita-
ton that they presumed had been
given by Mr.. Bachtold.
Everything went swimmingly with
the host and at o'clock in the even
ing he had his table loaded down with
many tootnsome delacicies, to say
nothing of the steaming hot
chickens which had been cooked to
perfection. The four friends arrived
in due time and were just about to sit
! down to the feast when several other
persons strolled in. Although some
what surprised they were hidden well
| come by Mr.. Bachtold and he was pre-
pairing to serve them when numerous
hacks, buggies and automobiles load
ed down with gentlemen began arriv-
| ing, until there were about so persons

assembled at the Bachtold residence.
The sudden appearance of 50 many
people was a sumner to Mr.. Bachtold
and he was at loss to understand
why they had chosen such a time to
pay him visit. Eacn one then went
into the house and in the choicest of
language thanked Mr.. Bachtold for his
kind invitation. Then the host real
lied that he had been made the object
of practical joke. Not to be outdone,
however, Mr.. Bachtold sent up to the
city for more food and after consider
with something to eat. AS the guests
were so numerous he was compelled
to dispense with formalities and the
visitors was forced to crowd around
the table fill their plates and retire to
some other portion of the house to eat
the food.
Mr.. Bachto1d endeavored to divide
up the two chickens so that each one
would have an equal snare but, un-
fortunately, ]. J. Kaufman was one
of the unbidden guests and when he
had been supplied with chicken there
was very little left for the others.
Mr.. Bachtold took the joke in good
part, but when his guests left he swore
vengeance on the one that had caused
the breaking up Of the little party
that ne had arranged for.
1t is said that Mr.. Bachtold was
compelled later in the evening to re-
pair to a restaurant and get his din

SPEARlNe FISH
Game Laws Being Violated in Una
tilla County.

INSCRIPTIONS fishermen are said to
be spearing fish below the dam Of the
Northwestern Gas & Electric company
on the south fork Of the Walla Walla.
Game Warden Nolf Of Umatilla county
has placed large signs at the dam,
warning persons not to fish within 200
yards Of the dam, but Notwithstanding
it is said that INSCRIPTIONS campers
are making it a practice to visit the
large pool and spear big fish. Owing to
the small amount of water flowing in
the stream below the dam it is an easy
matter to reach the fish with spears.
The matter will probably be brought
to the attention of the Umatilla county
game warden in an effort to stop the
practice.

Day ranch, says a dispatch from
Grangeville. Bennett had been an
employe at the John Day ranch for
the past five months and on July TIN

1t seems that Crooks and a brother

Crooks to stand aside and let the men
fight 1t out. The brother flghtine
against odds was badly used up and
Crooks was so incensed that he prom

the opportunity ever presented itself.
The opportunity came a few days AFRO
when Crooks dropped into wallula and
hunted up Nave.
Nave was game and the pair retired
to the edge of town and half Of the
population looking on saw the little
Southerner give Nave a terrible beat

until July 21, when several matters of
extreme importance to the taxpayers
Of the county will be brought up for

report of the conditions of the sheriff

Look for Flour to Advance.

If flour does not take another rise
soon many will be surprised. Milling
wheat is exceptionally short in the
Pacific Northwest; in fact, it is so
scarce that an order for four carloads
of flour for delivery at Bellingham and
Sumas could not be filled and the writ
ten reason as given was that it was
impossible to secure milling wheat to
manufacture flour. During the past
year the East looked to the West for
wheat and many carloads of Wash
ingtons best grade of wheat was even
shipped to the metropolis of the wheat
growing country, Minneapolis. Large
shipments were also made to Tonnes
see. The advance of 20 cents a bar
rel on flour is due to this cause.-Bell-

An Old $50 Gold Piece,

Mat Gerry received at his place Of
business the other day a $40 gold
piece which was coined in the year
1850, and which is one Of the second
series coined at Philadelphia, says q
dispatch from Grangeville. The coin
is in an almost new condition, show
ing no wear from being in circulation.
Mr.. Gerry believe it was given him by
an old man who resides in the noun
tains and is one of many in mis- pos
session which he secured during thu
early days. The old fellow always has
plenty of money and the superstition
is that he acquired a large amount
years ago and does his own banking
in a place known only to himself.

Niagara's Future City.

An idea which has occurred to
many minds since the first "harness-
ing" of Niagara falls was clearly put
by Mr.. W. H. Buck in paper read
before the Engineers society Of west
ern New York. It is that most of the
electric power obtained from the falls
will be used within few miles OF its
place Of origin. instead of being trans
mitted to distant cities. In other
words, Mr.. Buck believes with Profess
sor Brigham that 1t and near the falls
will be situated the future industrial
center Of America. 1t would be theo-
retically possible. he says. to traus-
