STORY OF HOW SOMEBODY
INVENTED THE SHERBET FIZZ

The drink mixer leaned back against
the soda fountain and wiped the per-
spiration from his face with the sleeve
of his white coat.
Gee, but I'm glad to get this rest"
he sighed. "All afternoon amt
heard anything but chocolate Ice
cream soda, please and mix with
sherbet fzz.'
What? Never heard OF a sherbet
fizz? Why, it's oone of the most popu-
lar drinks Of the seanson. And the
the story of its invention-I suppose
you don't know that either?
Watts and his tea kettle amt any
thing to this inventor. I never heard
his last name, but his first name was
Willie He invented sherbet f1zz by
accident, as all great inventors do.
Willie had never mixed any drinks
before. He came to work on busy
Saturday and they put up serving the
drinks right at the start Well, he
mixed a couple OF ice cream sodas
and a lemonade all right, and then in
came a man who wanted an egg
phosphate.
willie was up against 1t then,
but he never let on. He just said, yes,
sir grabbed up glass and let down
some lemon syrup; that didn't look
good to him 80 he put in some orange.
Then he thought that those two would
only counteract each other, 80 he ad-
ded some pineapple. Somehow or 9TH
er he felt after that that he wasn't
making any progress after all, 80
NIL Uong11o fa
the standard and it's always good.
at struck him then that 1t must be
about time to put in something from
a bottle and he made in two dashes
of bitters. A bottle OF rum attracted
him next and he added a dash of that
After that he broke an egg into the
glass. He'd mighty near reached the
end of his row when he thought Of the
fountain mans adage, when In doubt
add ice cream 80 he did.
I'm spite OF all the truck that wal
in already there was still some space
left and Willie filled 1t with cream.
"The logical thing to do next was tt
shake the stuff together, and whatever
else Willie was, he was logical.
when he poured the mixture out h'
added a little carbonated water ant
sprinkled nutmeg on top.
"All this time the customer had beer
looking on wide-eyed and when Willie
showed out the dope he shook his head
I ordered an egg phosphate, hi
demonstrated.
willie was puzzled for . minute
but he never faltered.
This an-er-sherbet fizx," he says
never batting an eye. Try 1t, it,
great, and It won't cost you cen
more than the phosphate
"And the customer sucked ON tht
straw, tasted again and said: 'You'rl
all right young man.
vi knew you'd like It, says Willie

areas, as well as In large ones. This
effect may often be seen in alfalfa
fields where seepy places occur. Some
of these spots may not be over ten feet
in diameter, but sharply defined by
vigorous alfalfa around the edges.
A conservative use of water, sup
plemented by thorough tillage, will do
much to stave OF the evil effects Of
seepage, but more often some form Of
drainage must be employed.

SECRET SERVICE MEN WILL
INVESTIGATE PROPOSITION

Colorado Springs, Aug. 29.-As re-
suit of the conviction in the federal
court at Denver OF the eleven men who
were interested in the famous ;Ost
Bullion Spanish Mines company, it Is
investi cation OF the entire list OF min
ing promoters who are using the mails
to interest the public at large In their
propositions.
This Is the statement made this
morning by a well known mining man
Of Denver who has been watching :hc
proceedings of the federal court and
keeping track of the work being done
and contemplated by the postal au-
thorities, through their special agents.
The Lost Bullion promoters have
been on trial for the last three weeks.
A fraud order was issued against the
company some months ago, and the
jury was out only three hours in Gnd-
ing every one indicted guilty. The
maximum penalty in each case Ia
fine Of 10000 and three years and six
months in the penitentiary. The at.
torneys for the defendants have moved
for a new trial and Judge Lewis. who
presided In the case. has allowed them
until September IL to prepare their
briefs. The Wholesale conviction has
attracted wide attention In the mining
world, In that there are other cases
OF a similar nature pending before the
court. one we'll known promoter. J. J.
O'Hara, being Indicted on several
counts.
None OF the men convicted ysater-
day are from Colorado Springs nor
were they Interested in any promo
tons from this city. 1t 10 stated.
however, on the best authority, that
the cursory Investigations made some
time ago by the postofflce inspectors
will Immediately be followed by q
most rigid examination Of all new
mining propositions on the market
The secret service men who have
been devoting their time to investi-
eating the alleged land frauds in the
west will be transferred to the min
ing industry. and every phase Of the
situation will be looked into with
searching minuteneso.
More than 100 secret service men
were in and about Denver pricr to
the sitting Of the federal grand Jury
that brought indictments in the land
fraud cases a few weeks ago, and II
is stated that this large force will now
be utilized in looking into mining COM
ranies Of which COMPLAINT has been
made The conviction of every may

victory that will be followed closely.

Large crowds gathered on the streets
to witness the starting of the cars,
and Just as soon as A. Welch, general
manager of the Eugene & Eastern,
and Tom Richardson, secretary of the
Portland Commercial club, alighted
from the Southern Pacific train and
took seats in the front car the juice
was turned on and while the band
played and the people shouted the
car whizzed up Willamette street and
en- out Eleventh street to the Univer-
sity of oregon. The other two cars
followed in quick succession. The
real estate men occupied the last car
with the horns and whistles and rent
the air with their discordant sounds.

o. r.. s. N. PROTESTS ORDER.
Efforts Made to Evade Connecting
With N. p. Track.

The Walla Walla Union says of
the continued railroad war in east
ern Washington:
An effort that promises to be sue
cessful is being made by the legal de-
partment of the o. r. & N. company
to evade making connections In east
srn Washington that would enable
the Northern Pacific railroad to Sc
cure the long haul on wheat to Puget
sound instead of following the o. r.
& N. route as in the past to Port
land.
The washington railway commits
sion ordered the company to make
connections desired by Tacoma ship
pers, and the o. R. & N. company
has lnterposed an action in the su-
perior court at Olympia, asking for
writ of prohibition against the COM
mission. The effect will be to delay
the effectiveness of the commissions
order until after the falls wheat
movement.
The o. r. & N. company will con-
tinue the fight to prevent the Wash
ington railway commission from fore
ing the building of track connections
or the making of joint rates that
would convert the o. r. & N. COM
pany's lines in eastern Washington to
the uses of the Northern Pacific as
practically branch lines for collecting
eastern Washington wheat and haul
ing it to docks on Puget sound.
There has been a determined effort
made on the part of Puget sound
shippers to secure the wheat tribu-
tary to the o. r. & N. lines in east
ern Washington, where it is said this
company has been getting so per cent
of the crop every year and bringing
1t to Portland. The Washington rail-
way commission has been enlisted in
the fight on the side of the sound
shippers and the legal department OF
the o. R. & N. company has been
kept busy maneuvering to prevent the
result desired by the sound men.

Ter, chief of planting in this section
for Lowman to begin operations in

less expensive.
