While waiting for the train at the

story of his encounter with an intoxi-
Gated man i'm Baker city, says the In
dependence West Side Enterprise
With several drinks aboard the Ba-
kcr miner came numbering out of a
saloon in Baker City and "butted in"
to Rev Bell, as the latter was passing
along the street. The man was in a
state Of mind that makes one feel he
is acquainted with everybody on
earth, and extending the hand Of
greeting to Rev Bell, remarked,
Where in h have / seen you be-
fore?"
Rev. Bell answered that he did not
know in what particular part Of h
the miner had been and therefore
could not answer the question. Max
ing further inquiry the Baker City
man learned that he had been ad-
dressing a minister of the gospel and
he stralghtway hunted up Rev. Bell
and apologized.
That's all right" answered the
preacher again; "now you come to
church next Sunday and III tell you
fellows something" The fellow went
to church and Rev. Bell did the rest.

age. and well-known in that section.
Sheriff Oxford was notified by tele-
phone, and went down to make an in
vestigation. An inquest was held by
Justice A. w. English of that district,
and the verdict of the jury was
that the old negro came to his death
from cause unknown.
His legs were both wet up to the
body, as if he had been wading in the
water. There were no signs of injury
or marks of violence of any kind, and
it is the general belief that the old
man died of heart disease.
He had been dead only a few hours,
as he was seen that morning by
citizens of Herod.

WON'T TELL ABOUT TAG SALES.
Department of Agriculture Closes Lid

Department of Agriculture Closes Lid
on Information to Public.
The announcement is made by the
department of agriculture that no
STATEMENTS regarding the number Of
fertilizer tags sold to manufacturers
will be given out this year until the
close of the season, which is Octo-
Der | next
1t will be recalled that, as had al
ways been the custom, former Com
missioner of Agriculture O. b. Stew
ems gave out statements from time
to time last year regarding the
sales of fertilizer tags, and these
statements resulted in no little dis
cussion in the newspapers, because,
it was claimed, a large number OF
the tags sold were not used but wasted.
The charge was made that these tags
had been purchased in large quanti-
ties for the purpose of bearing the
cotton market.
OF course it is known that the de-
partment has no discretion in the mat
ter, and must sell tags to whoever calls
for them and in whatever quantities
they are desired.
