Frand Rudeinger, a teamster, Al

hospital being treated for one of the
worst fractures brought to the notice
of the medical authorities. Rureinger
yesterday was on his way to Shaw's
siding, west Of Walla Walla with a
load of lumber when the wagon struck
a rut and Rudeinger rolled from his
seat to the ground, landing in such a
position that his right leg was directly
in front of the wagon.

wagon passed over Rudeingers leg be-

and it was nine o'clock before Rude

Rudeinger suffered intensely on the
trip and frequently swooned away.
The attending physicians are yet
undetermined whether or not Rudein-
gers leg can be saved. He is suffering
severely from the shock. The fracture
is what is known as a compound null

hollow as a crescent moon, her back
was bowed over like barrel hoop, and
her chin stuck out beyond her ragged

JUSTICE BOOTED AND SPURRED.

The case of John Joseph kean, the
kidnapper of Eddie Muth, shows that
justice in this country occasionally puts
or her seven-leagued boots. Kean was
captured in the morning. Before noon
he had been examined before a magis-
trate and held to the grand jury In
another hour he had been indicted
brought into court pleaded guilty and
sentenced, and was slowed in the peni-
Tertiary for twenty years.
Compare this record with that of
Patrick, the murderer who singlehand-
ed has kept the whole criminal process
of New York state at bay for six years;
or with the Gaynor and Greene case,
where the power of the United States
was exerted in vain for five years be-
fore they could even be brought to
trial, and one is tempted to ask, what
makes the difference?
There appears to be two or three
differences. some rather more vital
than others. In Kean's case there was
an active public sentiment against him,
there was no doubt Of his guilt, there
was no real or made-up defense Pub
lie sentiment doubtless had more to do
with swift justice for Kean than any
other cause. There was not a lawyer
in Philadelphia who would have cared
to assume the responsibility of a pro-

two dollars a gallon less than the same
quality of brandy cost at any time during
the past fifteen years Good brandy can
be had at certain places where they care
for good custom and fair profits, rather
than lots of money quick. for fifteen cents
a drink, and the house is making living
profit on It at that There is the usual
supply OF the finer grades of brandy, but
a forty and seventy-fve cent drink never
can become very popular with the average
drinker, because so few have incomes
enough to stand 1t.

whisky--I am speaking now of the recent

water on the side, morning, noon and
night 1t was a preponderance of the
same old order whisky with a little plain
water on the side. with the usual per cent
of old-fashioned toddy and cocktails
thrown In around meal time. Then the
first thing you know along came the high
ball. There was a great increase in the
number of large glasses I'm use on the
bar, and the carbonc water factories
were buster than a salmon factory in can

the slogan early and late They drank
rye highballs till they were picked and
boosted up with carbenic water, and the
rye highbal began to pail. All of sud
den some one discovered that Scotch whis-
ky was good to drink in n highball. and

public went on the souse of Scotch. still
drinking highballs. The smoke of the
beverage got into their throats and made
them thirstier than ever. and there was
a fever of Scotch drinking for awhile.
1t was a little heavy for the average
drinker who keeps the bars open, and
they soon get tired Of that, and 1t was
only natural that they should turn TO
brandy, which can be drunk neat and
without having to take lot of super
fluous fluid along with it, as In the case
of the highball. Brandy is lighter than

greater and the glow that comes from 1t

after one has partaken is of a much more
buoyant nature than that that follows
whisky. and the whole stimulating pro-
cess is of higher grade, and as a nat
ural result New York finds It a pleasing
change from the rather heavy dose of
highballs 1t has been drinking.
Those who In turning TO brandy take
up the brandy and soda habit won't make
much of a change, because while the club
soda that ought to go with brandy is
light, 1t still makes a washy drink, and
that's what the average drlnker wants
to get away from.
