Finally the man took out blank cylinder.
 "'See,' he said, rather reluctantly. here is a blank cylinder. You may make record on it. then we will run 1t off and you shall hear yourself It's a costly favor I am doing you, but it will show you what a fine instrument this is.'

In long letter to w. w. Brough-

commission of Washington yesterday
went on record as urging the hand

bulk instead of in sacks. Not only
does the commission favor this plan,
but announces it's determination to
father movement looking to that
chmange in the system of handling
grain. The decision is the result of

AFTER THE Big
BEND BURGLARS
Break in Store at COulee City This
Morning. Frightened Away
By Citizens Draper's
Dogs ON the Trail

Burglars broke into the mer-
chandise store of George Mcdonald
at Coulee City this morning at 3
o'clock, blew up the safe, were
frightened away by the citizens of
the town and are now on horseback
riding, it is believed, in the direction
of Chelan.
There are three in the party. En-
tering the store, the robbers took
the dry goods found there and piled
them about the safe. Then hanging
the overcoats on the windows they
proceeded to blow up the safe. The
noise awakened the proprietor sleep
ing in the adjoining building.
Thursting his head out of the win
dow he called to the robbers.
Pull your head back inside and
keep it there or we will blow your
brains out" they told him in a way
that he believed what they said.
Going to the back door Mr.. McDon-
aid let out a terrific yell which
awakened the inhabitants of the
town.
