TRIP TO BASTiLE SOON FOLLOWS
HIS ADVENT IN CITY FROM
MOUNTAIN CAMP.

John Huney, a logger from Fletchers
sawmill camp on Basket mountain,
drifted into Walla Walla to take in the
sights yesterday afternoon and thereby
hangs a tale The fact that Huney was
in town did not become known to the
police until a hurry-up call was sent
into headquarters about midnight from
a downtown saloon, conveying the in
telligence that crazy Swede was max
ing supernuman efforts to clean out
the resort and was making a pretty
fair success of it.
the call and found Huney in possession
of the saloon. Huney seriously OBJ
jected to being deprived of the pleasure
of cutting the heart out of everybody
in the saloon, but by a little persuasion,
known only to the police, Huney was
finally placed in cold storage in the
city Jail. The trip from the saloon to
the Jail was made in such hurry that
Huney hardly had time to offer much
resistance, but once he had recovered
his second wind he began to make
Rome howl by yelling at the top of his
voice
And the Floods Came.
Hey, close your fly trap" one of the
officers growled as Huney let out a
screech that would have done credit
to a Commanche Indian.
GO chase YOURSELF yelled back
Huney, letting out another yell.
Better shut up cautioned the Off
Ger. Such thunder as that is liable
to bring on a rainstorm'
go chase YOURSELF reiterated
Huney, and he put forth another effort
that brought three or four firemen
asleep in the cit1 hall up with a start.

sponded one of the officers, and the

COzY HOMES.

The discovery of II new wick principle
30 effective and ye. so simple that RS q
wonder no one thought Of 1t becore-has
so revolu;onized the manufacture Of Gil
heaters and lamps that explosions, smoke
and smell, caused by imperfect wick ar
rangement, may safely be regarded rs
things of the past.
The new wick attachment t, to be found
on the Perfection OIL Heater, Interesting
tests show that, although the heater gives
intense heat, the wick cannot be turned
too high or too low--absolute safety thus
being assured One other feature which Is
worthy Of mention is the okeless device
which prevents all smoke and odor The
portability of the heater also commends it
for general household use. Heater Is very
! light and can be easily carried about It's
| simple operation, usefulness in heating
water and warming cold rooms make 1t
most handy ard useful article in any
home This heater is so far superior to
other oil heaters. and is of such fair price
that its universal adoption is but matter
Of time.
The Rayo Lamp, which is made by the
manufacturers Of the Perfection Oil Heater
is without doubt the best lamp for all
round household use. Is equipped with
the latest improved burner and gives q
bright, steady light at small cost. Suit
able for any room, whether library, din
ing room, parlor or bedroom.
| The Perfection Oil Heater and the Rayo
Lamp form a combination that for real
| home comfort cannot be equalled. When
| consideration is taken of the simple opera
ton of both heater and lamp, their abso-
| lutte safety, the intense heat generated by
the one, and the bright and steady light
given by the other-all without smoke or
! smell-ther value in any home large or
small, can be somewhat appreciated Sold
| by all good dealers.
