A Good and Sufficient Reason.

A group Of convicts were working to-
gether In an English dockyard, when
II was suggested by one that each man
should say what he was "ln for"
Thereupon in turn they told their ex-
periences. One had killed man In
self defense; another had put another
mans signature to check; while a
third one had married another woman,
thinking" his first wife dead. The
only convict who did not make any dis
closures was a man who was called
1.-The Parson."

YAKIMA Aaoe OVER MYSTERY.
Wealthy NJ. L. Marois Vanlshes in
Dead of Night.

North Yakima, Dec. 10.-Deep mys-
terry surrounds the disappearance OF
N. Lewis Marois, a wealthy Klondiker
who has not been seen since Tuesday
night, when he babe farewell to his
sweetheart, Miss Ambrosia Adams, a
comely young school teacher Of Wenas,
saying he was going to ride Is miles
TO North Yakima and would return to
her Friday.
Wednesday his saddle horse was
found near the ford of the Naches
river, a mile north of North Yakima,
but not trace of him has been dis
covered. Miss Adams and her family
believe that he has met with foul
play. They state that many persons
knew that he had just returned from
Alaska and they were aware he carried
large sums in a belt about his waist.
Their opinion is that some thug knew
this, followed him, murdered him and
has hidden the body.

Victor Hugo, probably the greatest

during his childhood advantages that

He had from his earliest years the de-

1t was when Hugo was coming to
the realization that he would devote
his life to writing, depending on his

lutely dependent on his talent for q
livelihood. 1t was no longer a within

DOES IT PAY
To Raise Fruit on
the Potiatch

~ Il
This question is being asked every
day by farmers Of Potlatch and the
answeris about the same at all time.
fyou take care Of your trees You can
raise good fruit. The average farmer
in the GREAT POTLATcH country
has so many different things to make
his money out Of that he does not care
to work the way one has to work in
order to make good money out Of fruit.
At one time the Potlatch was known
all over the United State as the land
Of the beautiful red apple; that was
while the trees were young and needed
no careful attention, but as soon as
the trees got the age to them so as to
take care and attention they become a
drag in the way Of proper handling
and therefore they become inferior
in size shap and color, the fruit lost its
flavor as we'll as its favor. In passing
through the country at the present
time one sees plenty Of orchards. and
large ones too, but not in the condition
as Of yore but grown up to weeds and
grass, trees broken down limbs bunch
ed together and in q most deplorable
condition, how about the balance of
the farm Is it in this condition. No
the farm has an appearance Of pros
perity and thrift, large roomy houses
smelly painted barns good horses and
cattle, plenty Of hogs and grain and
hay to feed their stock for the market
and in every way prosperity seems to
be smiling on the POTLATCH farmer
But the orchard why is tito this
shape?

to care for the trees, what to use in
cases Of different needs. Men would
