FOR A JOKE

A variation of Cartoons Gone

pears to have been enacted on III.
L. Knappen, the reporter who
came home to find note from
his wife saying two could play at
the all night game. Knappen works
nights. He read the note and re-
ported the disappearance to the po-
lice.
A series Of adventures then be-
fell Knappen. He thought he saw
his wife on the street and investi-
gated. The woman's escort took
exception to such inquiry and had
Knappen arrested later on a charge
of disorderly conduct.
After all that he went home to
find his wife waiting for him. She
had left the note for joke and
gone into neighbor woman's
apartment in the same fiat. Mean
while Knappen has an explanation
to make in court if the case is
called. All of which is consider
able of joke on Knappen.

ALPENA AND CHEBOYCAN
THREATENED BY FLAME

DETROIT, Oct. 17.-Forest fires
today are sweeping uncontrolled
through northwestern counties,
Cheboygan, Presquisle, Alpena and
the lower peninsula, according to
latest advices. Acres of forest
are being annihilated. The flames
are famed by steady southwest
wind.
Alpena City, on Thunder bay, is
again threatened with destruction.
Cheboygan, on the south chan
mel of Mackinac strait, is menaced
from the three land sides.
Bishop Charles B. Williams,
Episcopal diocese of Michigan,
who was reported killed yesterday
at Metz, returned to Cheboygan to-
day. He related his experience as
follows:
81 was fire-bound at Hagensville,
near Metz, and had a narrow es-
cape from death in the same fire
which destroyed Metz. We fought
fire at Hagensville all night Thurs
day and all Friday.
THE whole country about there
is afire. When we left Hagens-
vile reports of disaster were still
coming in. The whole country is
a great fire trap. Nowhere is there
adequate fire protection"

Club
Convicted
Must Take Out Saloon License in Order to
Dispense Liquor.

The exclusive Spokane club was
this morning found guilty of vio-
lating the city retail liquor or
dinance by the decision of Judge
Huneke in upholding the action of
the lower court. They will now be
required to pay the regular license
fee or discontinue the sale of IL
quors at the club. At the instiga-
ton of Chief of Police Rice, J. F.
Baughman, steward of the club,
was arrested for distributing in
toxicants to the members of the
club without the necessary per-
NIT from the city. He was con-
victed and fined $25 and costs. An
appeal was Immediately taken to
the superior court to test the law.
1t was admitted by the club
through its attorney, VIII Graves,
that the club maintained a stock
of wines, beers, and other liquors
from which It's members and
guests were supplied at a cost fix
ed by the club, but he contended
that the disposition of liquors
made by members is not sale
in the sense contemplated in the
ordinance and that there is no
profit for the club in the sales.

ON TRAIL WITH V
GREAT BIG GUN

There's a man in town Is after
two holdup men with a piece of
artillery big enough to hunt ele-
plants with. He is Mr.. Circle. q
Ritzville merchant, and he's mad
all over. Two strange men APP
peared in his store yesterday, held
him up and took about $50 away
from him. then forced him at the
point of gun to prepare them a
lunch of crackers and cheese.
Circle declared this morning as
he appeared at police headquarters
that he would not rest until he had
avenged the insult. He did not
object so much OF the robbery as
to being held up also for some
thing to eat and forced to be
waiter, too.
He went to Sheriff ellison, was
deputized, borrowed the sheriff's
cannon, and came to town hot on
the holdups' trail.
He rampsed around the city pro.
miscuously this morning without
finding trace of those he sought,
SO. weary and sweating. he return
ed to police headquarters, un-
strapped the gun, laid 1t upon the
counter before Sergeant McPhee
and calculated:
"Whew! That's goldarn heavy.
III call for II later"
The Spokane press. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1902-1939, 1908-10-17

II was also argued that the club
merely distributes the members
property among them. The deci.
sion holds that profit is not a me-
cessary elemtn to a sale. AS to
the other argument, it was held
not supported by the facts in the
case.
''In the first instance" said the
court, "the club-the corporation
buys the liquors. using its cor.
pOrate funds, and 1t thereafter dis
poses of them to it's members at
a price fixed. not by the individual
members, but by the managers Of
the corporation. 1t seems to me
that there can be no escape from
the conclusion that such a transac.
ton Is a sale.'
Assistant Corporation Counsel
Harry A. Rhodes argued the case
for the city. The prosecution was
brought unde rthe city law fixing
license of $1,000 for selling
liquor.
1t is understood that the case
will be appealed to the supreme
court. Attorney Graves stated
that the matter would be definitely
decided at the next meeting of the
board of managers.

COMBINE Of GROCERS
DOUBLED THE INCREASE
ON BUTTER THIS WEEK

organizations in the city. While
it was ostensibly launched to keep
tab on dead heats, 1t seems to
have also extended its activities in
other directions, if the increase in
the price of butter is to be taken
as a criterion.
The association of grocers is
also charged with the plan of
maintaining the nickel as the low
est fraction in regulating the price
of commodities. BY the elimina-
ton of the use of the penny the
retailer reaps many an easy dol
lar in the course of the week from
the purchaser who buys in small
quantities.
The excuse of the retail grocers
today is that there had been sever
al small advances in the price of
butter prior to the advance of this
week, which the retailer stood
without raising the price to the
consumer. But when they did
raise the price they certainly made
up for anything previously over
looked.

CRASH At

SEATTLE, Oct 1.-THE Alaskan

at midnight, throwing passengers
from berths. Purser Jones was
hurled overload. A steerage pas
senger's leg was broken, and Quar-

Of the schooner was crushed in.
The panic-stricken passengers
