PRoSsER, Wash, June e.
Shrinking I'm horror from the fanci.
full enemies of his delIFium, Theo-
dore Gordon. aged 20 years, educat-
ed in the east. an artist OF ability
and son Of wealthy parents, died
Tuesday in a hut In the rear OF
the Bailey saloon, after a two days
debanch. during which he drank
everything from beer to straight al
cohol. The body Is at local under
takers and the authorities are wait
Ing an answer from the chief OF POI
lice of Detroit, Mich. the former
home of the dead man.
Gordon lived I'm a tumbled-down
shack In an alley, his one companion
being Theodore Mcdonald, who also
was cursed with desire for drink.
The artist earned living for him
self and Mcdonald by painting pic
lures, the greater share OF which
appear ON the walls of saloons. He
has done work. however, for many
residents OF the valley from North
Yakima to this city. The greater
number of his pictures were land
scapes. and when sober he painted
with a skill that could have been at
tanned only by arduous study.
Gordon, according to the men who
knew him, never told a great deal
about his past life. To Mcdonald
he coniided part OF his hlsory.
His parents, he said. died when he
was years OF age and a fortune was
willed TO him, his two brothers and
o sister. Gordon was wild and new
er would stay In school, preferring to
spend his time drawing or studying
pictures. Finally his guardian sent
him TO an art school In Detroit.
Mich, whore he remained for seven
years study. After that. he said,
he drifted from place to place. and
finally came to Washington. Cor
don's appearance and his paintings
and drawings indicate that his story
was a truthful one.
He came to Prosser a year ago
and his paintings now cover the four
walls OF the saloon back of which
he died. Occasionally he took trips
to the towns along the valley to
paint, earning, 1t is said. good
amount OF money during sober per-
iods. He returned from North Yak
Tina last week and Sunday McDon-
aid, Gordon and several others
spent the day In drinking. After
consuming whisky and beer they
took to straight alcohol. Monday
afternoon Gordon lay down on the
bare floor OF the shack and began
raving, then lay IN a stupor until
Tuesday morning. when he died.

1t would be a pleasant thing IL all
people who are plagued with short
memories had the ready tact by which
the composer ROsslni once turned his
own defect into graceful compliment.
He met at dinner one evening Bishop.
the famous English song writer, to
whom be had been introduced on a
previous occasion and to whom he had
taken an instant liking.
Good evening, Mr. began Rossini
cordially, extending his hand, but the
name Of his English acquaintance had
basely deserted him for the moment.
There was scarcely perceptible
hesitation on bis part however, for In
stantly he began TO whistle softly the
opening bars Of Bishops glee, "When
the Wind Blows"
The face OF the English Mozart" as
Bishop was often called, lighted up
with smile Of qualification, and Ros-
sini's failure to recall his name was in
stantly forgiven in the recognition of
his pretty compliment

The Sells-Floto show is one OF the
largest and best now travelling in the

a good Idea Of the large menagerie
carried by the show. and its large
troop of actors and perforerms and
the many other wonderful things
carried by 1t. The show this after
noon gave an exhibition at the fort
grounds and will give another this
evening. The grounds Immediately
after the parade were crowded with
people who had come to witness the
outside performance and during the
afternoon the large tent and the tents
containing the sideshows were filled
to their utmost capacity. All those
who attended the afternoon exhibl-
tion pronounced 1t the best show they

William BoliInger, escaped from his
keeper last night, ran out Of the yard
and quickly climbed large poplar
tree directly In front Of the Hollinger
hotel. He remained there All night

through force or persuasion,
Teddy enjoyed his freedom FOR only
q brief moment, when he assembled a

behind him, Mr.. Bolllnger tried To
coax bruin down by brlbing him with
suger, which he eomplacently munch-
ed, but when he was urged to come
down he grew furious. roaring and
acoldlng at his owner. Efforts to
dislodge him by main force proved
equally futile. although many of the
byEtanders claim that the men made
little effort because OF uncertainty as
to Teddy's action should he come
down. After spending the night In
the tree, where he was securely tied,
he came down because OF hunger
and allowed himself 10 be led back

Teddy attracted large crowd, as he

EGGs-AcTLY.

They lately had jolly little row. over in New Mexico. and all on account of eggs Now. 1t may be admitted that eggs often cause unpleasantness-- sometimes to those who eat overripe ones and sometimes to those who are made targets for that class Of hen fruit. but this case was different, and might by some be considered a much simpler and more trivial affair.
 As the story goes. last winter when eggs were worth 2t cents a dozen. a woman in the little town of Pratt bor- rowed a dozen from A neighbor. as good neighbors are in the habit of do- ing. A few days ago the borrower re- turned the same number of eggs. but as they were at that time worth only 12 cents a dozen the lender insisted that she should have two dozen to make up the money value of the Ioan This claim was refused, and q local newspaper states that the quarrel be- tween the two women has assumed serious aspect. All the women of the neighborhood have taken sides, the men have been drawn into 1t and it Is predicted that the affair may become an issue in the city campaign.
 All this bother. all these strained re- lations and all this dislocation of neighborly harmony and good feeling because of a dozen ordinary eggs! Which woman was in the right? We suspect that not less than nine out of every ten will say that if the lender received the same number of eggs she was paid and should have been satis- fled, but suppose the debt was paid in eggs of much smaller size than those about it In that case? Then, looking at 1t from a financial and business point of view did not the first woman borrow 24 cents and re- turn only 12? How about that? But the borrower only pledged herself to return an equal number of eggs, and did so. Did not that cancel the obli- gation in full? How about 1t some more? What Is the answer?

WILL IT WORKR

The Advertiser is not in the habit of critieising churches or their proceed ings but we cannot help noting a novel departure from the ordinary which is reported from Columbus Ind. The fol- lowing extract from a dispatch to The New York World will explain the mat ter in few words:
 After this week no SomaF who at tends the tabernacle will have any ex- cuse for wearing hats during the ser vices. for. checking system nas been
 The church has lately been remodel led, and in the big reception hall in front a great yariety Of r,,i racks N. haye ,e charge of this department every. Sun day who will check hats coats cloaks. umbrellas, baby caps and the like. and that not feather on the ladies hats
 After church services the people in the audience will simply present their checks to the men in charge of the checking departmant and the ha. or article correspondlns to the check will be handed over. This will save the or wraps during services and it will also make it imperative that each woman remove her hat
 Now. we know that St. Paul in his Epistle to the Corinthians. seems to teach that 1t is not meet and proper for a woman to uncover her head in church. but really we do not know whether to quote Paul as an authority or not. The moderns have to a great degree grown away from him and his teachings, but for all that we are doubtful if this Indiana experiment will prove an immense success. While 1t is undoubtedly true that some good women would not object to removing their hats when they enter a church 1t Is Just as true that some would not only object but refuse As to that matter. we predict that all of them will object to a man standing in the hall
