Much interest is being manifested
by the business men and citizens of
Walla Walla in the proposed harvest
festival for the last week in August and
the special meeting of the Commercial
club called for tomorrow night to
consider the carnival proposition will
be an interesting and important one
for the commercial interests.
The prospects for a bOuntiful crop
were never better and have seldom
been as good as they are this season
and the harvest festival will not only
be particularly appropriate but, If the
plans under consideration are carried
out, will be one of the biggest" events
ever undertaken by the Commercial
club.
There will be no counter attractions
at the time proposed for the festival;
one of the greatest harvests in the his
tory of the Walla Walla valley will
have been gathered, prices will be at

Suddenly the early morning stllh-
ness was broken by the entrance OF a
number of men i'll the hall.
One of them had on a pair or
"squeaky" shoes.
That's Johnson bringing in another
bunch of drunks," remarked McCau-
lev. 1t was evident he was thinking
of the man with the complaining
shoes.
Exhibiting merely passive Interest
in the noisy approaching party, Nc
Cauley retained his seat. The foot
steps reached the door, The door was
opened a trifie, a gun was showed
through. Then the above dialogue
took place.
Upon McCauley's reply the door was
thrown wide open and four men en-
tered. One held a shot gun and from
the trouser pocket of the other there
nrotruded the handle of six shooter.
Now 1 want you to stop right

MASSACRE Of
JEWS IN POLAND
Hundreds Of Men, Women
and Children Shot

WARSAW, July 1S.-An anti-Jewish
demonstration in Skonitz, on the Aus
trian frontier resulted in the death of
scores of Jews with many injured.
The Jews are fleeing toward the
Austrian territory for protection
Hundreds of bodies of women, chill
dren and pen filled the streets after
the shooting.
The victims were cut down indis-
criminately.
The agitators who were responsible
for the failure of the Agrarian plan
for the appropriation of land insti-
gated the program at dawn
Hundreds of peasants, armed with
scythes, swords and harvesting knives.
entered the town invading the ghetto
where they were joined by Jew baiters.
One party of 81 was overtaken by
the Cossacks who killed 25 and in
jured others.

We'll, I guess I've got you this
time."
And then Patrolman McCauley
gazed into the muzzle of a double
barrel shotgun.
4 don't know whether you have or
not" replied the undaunted McCau-
ley sill keeping his eye on the gun
and thinking hard about certain SIX
shooter which lay temptingly near
Then McCauley took a good look al
the man behind the gun and recognized
D. L. LaClair, an acquaintance ana
friend, who had couple of offenders
whom he wished to turn over to the
police.
This all happened at the police sta
ton early this morning. 1t was 5:Sv
O'Clock McCauley was patiently hold-
ing down the office awaiting break
fast time and breakfast food also any
possible phone calls for force" De-
fore the breakfast bell rang.

The question is, did it render the cleo
ton void?
In the case of Tebbe V. Smith, Al
Pacific Reporter, 457, the supreme
court of California lays down the fol-
lowing rule:
1T is the rule that mandatory pro-
visions for the holding of an elec-
ton must be followed, or the failure
will vitiate it; while the departure
from the terms of a directory provi-
sion will not render it void in the alb
sence of a further showing that the
result of the election has been changed,
or the rights of the voters injuriously
affected thereby. But the rule as to
directory provisions applies only to the
minor and unsubstantial departures
therefrom. There may be such radical
departures and failures to comply with
the essential terms of a directory pro-
vision as will lead to the conclusive
presumption that the injury must have
followed. There must be substantial
compliance with all the prescribed con-
ditions. 1t is the duty of the courts so
far to adhere to the substantial re-
uuirements of the law in regard to
elections as to preserve them from
abuses subversive of the rights of elec-
tors. And. under this view the ques-
ton becomes a broader one than can
be disposed of by answering that in
the individual case no harm resulted
1T is not a sufficient cause to set
aside an election if there is a few min
utes' delay in opening the polls" C

BOISE, Ida, July 1S.-The Haywood

How the Water In Great Salt. Lake
Treats the Bathers.
Bathing in Great Salt lake Is q
unique experience.
Flights Of steps lead down into the
water from the interminable platform
along which the lighthouses are stu
ated. The water is quite shallow at
first and you find rare enjoyment for
time IN wriggling your toes about in
the salt that forms the bottom In
place Of accustomed sand. You are
obliged to wade out some distance be-
fore you experience the peculiar buoy
ancy Of the lake. First you feel your
feet trying to swim out from under
you. You find Ii more and more diffi.
cult to walk. You begin to float in
spite Of yourself. Then you realize
you are nonsinkable. You can't sink II
you want to. Throw yourself on your
back or sit down or try to swim, and
you bob about like a rocking chair In
a freshet. You feel as though you had
been turned to cork. You can't help
looking at the phenomenon subjective
ly. You don't see that there Is any
thing peculiar about the water. 1t
looks and feels like any other bathing
water-until You get some of 1t in your
eyes or In your mouth. Then you wish
you hadn't come. Ocean water Is
sweet in comparison. In fact, the
chemists tell US 1t Is eight times less
salty.
You can't drown In the lake by sink
ng. but you can be suffocated to
Heath, which Is just about as uncom-
and undesirable. We found
'igns everywhere warning us against
,eing too laxative or too frolicsome in
he water.
When we came out we brought with
Is large deposits Of salt on our skin.
As the water evaporated we found our
elves covered with white crystals.

on big scale, but when 1t comes to
wholesale cookery the little village Of
Liss. on the London and Southwestern
railway, England, surpasses them ali.
At barbecue held there some years
ago an OK was boiled. not roasted,
whole, and this IL how It was done,
A large hole was dug in the ground
and lined with brick. Inside this a
tank large enough to hold the OK was
built. The carcass was then lowered
into the tank, having first been placed
IN case formed by heavy crossbars,
to which chains were attached. Pull.
leys from scaffolding above were
used to raise and lower the OK. Many
vegetables, such as carrots, onions, cab
bages and potatoes, were boiled with
the meat. The boiling required seven
hours.

The most picturesque part Of Yo-

bluffs" where most of the for
eigners have their homes. It over
looks the city ard the entire port.
The ascent to this section is by a
steep and winding road, and the
villas are almost hidden by the lux.
uriant growth Of Towering shrubs.
Many of the gardens are beautiful
ly laid out and in one Of them are
said TO be more than one hundred
varieties of peonies. Above the
gardens are three ancient cave
dwellings,, said to have been the
homes of the aborigines. The old
est tea house of Yokohama is also
On the bluff, and is called Fugiti,
