giving Walla Walla city park worthy

CLAIMS EGGS SHOULD
BE LISTED AS LIVESTOCK

WASHINGTON, D. c., May 12.-
(SpeciaD-Is an egg live stock?
If it is bought for the purpose of
Matching, is it live stock for breeding
purposes?
G. F. Slater 0 fSioux City has the
Department. of the Treasury working
about these and sundry collateral
questions. Mr.. Slater sent to Eng
land for a couple of dozen eggs of the
Black Orpington, an especially aris-
tocratic general purpose" hen; that
is, hen that can lay an egg every
day and at the same time be eaten
for dinner with satisfaction and COM
fort.
The cheerful joker who billed the
eggs out of England and who didn t
know anything about the tariff valued
them at $780, When they got to the
custom-house at Sioux City duties of
$25 were assessed against them.
Mr.. Slater protested He had heard
of the famous ruling of Secretary
Shaw that frogs are poultry for the
purposes of tariff, and he figured that
eggs were live stock, potentially, at
least.
Under the law registered live stock
imported for breeding purposes is
entitled to come in free. But the de-
partment decided against the Sioux
City man, and his only hope is to re-
open the case.

SAVED MANS LIFE BY
ROASTING HIS LEG

NEW YORK, May 12.-(SpeciaD-
After experienced physicians had de-
clared that even amputation of a leg
might not save the life of Policeman
Coles Carpenter, and a priest had
been summoned to administer the last
rites of the church, DR.. Raymond
Sullivan, young inferno in ST. Mary S
Hospital, succeeded by the alternate
baking and freezing process, in saw
ing Carpenters life and leg.
While stepping from a car last
July Carpenter fell on rusty nail,
wounding his right leg. Modification
set in, and last December it was de-
cided amputation was necessary.
DIR. Sullivan said he believed he
could save the linn AS amputation
in Carpenters condition was most
precarious, the inferno was allowed
to take the case.
Dr. Sullivan baked" Carpenter S
leg in heat from $50 to 200 degrees
to induce a rush of blood to the
limb. He then plunged it into an am
monia ice tank to drive the blood
out quickly and carry away the inn
purities which had caused mortifica-
ton. The treatment proved effective,
and early in April Carpenter could
use his leg with the aid of crutches.
Last night he took long walk with
out the crutches. His leg will soon
be normal.

How Cat Won Glory

One black night S. H. Alexander. a
clerk, at the store and postoffice, was
aroused from bed by call at the
door. Opening it, he was confronted
by two masked men with pointed
guns, who forced him to open the
safe. Alexander was mere youth.
The safe contained large sum Of
his employers money and postoffice
funds. The situation seemed hopeless
to the young fellow, with two brawny
men with drawn revolvers confront
ing him, and as he knelt at the door
of the safe he reviewed in his mind
many schemes to foil the robbers, only
to reject in turn as desperate.
One robber laid his revolver on
top of the safe and stepped up to
see what was inside as it's door was
swung open. Just then the cat, who
seemed to know that her young
master was in peril, made a dash
upon one of the robbers, and the one
who had keptAlexander covered
turned his head in alarm.
In an instant Alexander had seized
the revolver on the safe and shot the
man who was fighting away the cat.
The other robber leaped on Alexan-
der and wrestled with him for the
smoking revolver The clerk was
beaten on the head with guns and
shot several times by the wounded
desperate, who made off, leaving him
for dead.
