The Harry Luken'S wild west ami
NAL show is the most costly exhibition
of this nature ever shown at any car
nival. With the troupe OF black
named African lions and the trained
hears that are known from coast TO
coast as the original Teddy bears. this
exhibition is wonderful and startling
in every way. The control that the
trainer has over these wild beasts of
the desert is something that must be
seen to be appreciated. The Teddy
bears are almost human In their in
t%elIigence and the entire show Is both
wonderful and instructive.

branch of business except hotels

Mayor Moore said that Sunday
closing was against his policy OF
municipal government which he an
nounced during the campaign, but
that the Sunday closers had right
to be heard. He did not express
himself as likely to oppose the
prosecutions.
The warrants have been given to
the police and each patrolman will

"How to dispose of the hundreds
of rats that infest the neighbor-
hood of the Idaho and Georgia mar
kets is a problem harder to solve
than any the health board has yet
attempted" stated Health Officer
Grieye this morning.
These markets are near the rail-
road on Z. Sprague av. and seem
to be the jumping off place for the
hats that come into town on the
boxcars. Every night hundreds of
rats can be seen running about the
markets, squealing and scamper-
ing. Some of the rats are the large
gray wharf variety that breed bu-
bonic plague. The butchers have
tried every means the law allows
to rid their markets of the pests.
Dogs have been placed in the vi
entity to fight the animals, but are
always worsted, and the cats the
butchers have stationed on guard
are always found dead afterward,
the rats tearing them to pieces.
Strychnine has been suggested,
but there is state law prohibiting
its use near market. Traps are
of little avail, for the rats soon find

Law Enforcement League Makes a
Formal Complaint to Authorities.
Liquor Men Say They Will Retaliate
By Closing Other Places.

Justice Hinkle this morning sign
ed warrants for the arrest of 1877
saloon-keepers on charges of violat-
ing the Sunday closing law. Attor-
ney c. G.. Pentz is the principal
complainant. He said today that
he represents the law enforcement
league, which is composed of 16
members. He was very reticent
about just who the 16 are and said
some of them did not want their
names used.
There are a total of 210 saloons
in the city but the league has OBJ
tanned evidence only against 1877.
The others will be proceeded
against as soon as the proper evil
dence is gathered. Each saloon.
keeper will be required to put up
a bond Of $40 to guarantee his ap-
pearance.
Two weeks ago the anti-saloon
league made complaint against four
ginmill proprietors but Justice
Hinkle refused to sign warrants for
their arrest and insisted that all
the saloons be treated alike.

cases carried up from Spokane, de-
