an instant at the head of the stairs to look in the studio door, the whole scene bore a different meaning. And she drew a stiletto from her bosom.
 Twice Granger had walked as far as the elevated station, and twice he came back to walk L. the little red brick house with the rows or artificial flowers hanging at its lower windows, and one lone, dark green fern on the upper window ledge, beside bunch of daffodils. He had said he would never come back, but that was ten minutes ago, and he could not go up-town and leave her there with that Dago.
 As he stood in the doorway hesitat- ing the second time, he caught a sound from ustairs that made his heart seem to stop it's beating. It was a stifled cry from Trix Farraday's lips, and with a bound Granger was up the stairs and in the studio. It was dif- ferent from when he had left it ten minutes ago. The easel was overturned The picture of the fisher boy lay on the floor, face downwards. Standin g over it, her eyes shining with startled amazement was Trix, and around ths room, now here, now there. struggling, overturning chairs sketches, fghtin desperately to free herself, was Car mela in the grasp of Nello, and in one hand. Granger caught the flash of a barred steel.
 "Jerrym cried Miss Farraday, help lessly, as she saw him. Jerry, that girls wants to kill me"
 A flood of Sicilian rage poured from Carmela's red lips. Nello suddenly deftly slapped the red lips with the back of his hand. and with the other wrenched the stiletto away. and struck 1t composedly in his own back pocket Carmela's dusky brown hair had humbled about her face. and she leaned back against the wall, her arms crossed over her eyes, sobbing heavily. Nellie smiled. and shrugged his slim shout. ders in humble. helpless apology.

BASKETBALL ON SKATES
Dallas Team Organizes to PLAY
Salem, Albany, Eugene and
Other Towns.

basketball on roller skates Is the
latest fad. The young men Of Dallas
have organized a team and will soon
be ready to meet all comers. Kerslake
q White, Of the Colosseum rink, have
provided the team with an outfit and
practice will begin tonight. The first
game in Dallas will be played with a
second team within the next two
weeks, after which games will be
arranged with Salem, Corvallis,
Albany and Eugene.
The new game is said to not differ
materially from the regulation game,
about the only difference being that
the players are allowed to carry the
ball a given distance when playing
on skates, whereas, in playing on a
regular court they are not allowed to
run with the ball.
The Dallas team is made up Of two
members Of the college champion
team and three young men outside the
school. The lineup will be; Lloyd
Launer and Leon Elder, forwards
George Brown, center; Tracy Savery
and George Morton, guards.

William H. Lytle, OF Pendleton,
State Sheep Inspector for Oregon, has
appointed Claude M. Lewis and George
Boothby, Of Monmouth, to be Deputy
Inspectors for Polk county. twill be
the duty OF these deputies to inspect
all sheep in the county and to super
wise all dipping done by The flock
owners 10 future. Sheep afflicted with
scab and other diseases must be dipped
until cured.
The new stock law will be hailed
with satisfaction by the farmers, as it
removes the state quarantine and per-
mits them to dip their sheep at home.
Heretofore, all sheep shipped from
the state had to be inspected and
dipped at Portland, or other distant
shipping points. at a heavy expense
to the shipper. This inspection will
no longer be required and the dipping
will be done at home under the direc-
tion of the Deputy State Inspector.

MOHAIR BRINGS Top PRICE
Dallas Pool Of $4,000 Pounds Sells
at 80 Cents Net to the
Growers.

The Polk County DIohair pool OF
$4,000 pounds of hair was sold to Her
man Metzger, of Portland, Saturday,
at 80 cents pound net to the growers.
The goat men met in Browns Hall
in the forenoon to agree upon plan
Of selling the hair, and, after brief
conference, decided to call for sealed
bids and to place the selling Of the
pool in the hands Of a committee OF
five growers. President McBee APP
pointed as such committee H. L. Fem
ton and George Richmond, Of Dallas !;
Chester Gardner, Of Bridgeport; A. B.
Sloane, of Monmouth, and H. p.
StrickIer, OF Sheridan.
When the meeting was called to
order again in the afternoon, nearly
100 growers were present to witness
the sale. Sealed bids were called for,
but the large number of buyers
present did not seem to favor that
plan Of selling, and only one bid was
received. The bid was rejected by the
selling committee, and the hair was
then offered at auction. The bidding
opened at 29a cents and closed at 80
cents. Herman Metzger Of Portland,
made the 3O-cent bid, his nearest
competitor being Theodore Bernheim,
who offered 29s cents.
The selling committee then retired
to consider the Metzger bid, and, after
brief discussion, decided to refer the
offer back to the growers without
recommendation The bid was then
taken up in open meeting and the
growers we're asked to express their
wishes in the matter. All present
seemed to favor selling the pool pro-
vided an offer OF 80 cents net could be
had, otherwise to ship the mohair
direct to the Eastern mills. After
conferring with Mr.. Metzger, Secretary
Fenton announced that an agreement
had been reached whereby the growers
would receive 80 cents net for the hair
The bid was then accepted without a
dissenting voice.
The price paid by Mr.. Metzger is
practically 800 cents. as the cost Of
handling the pool will be about cent
pound. The growers are well satis-
fed with the price received for the
mohair, which is three-quarters Of
cent higher than was paid for other
Oregon pools this season.
The following are the figures at
which the Polk county mohair pools
have been sold since 1897:
