drawn on the Columbia Valley bank
These checks were cashed by Mills
Brothers, Groves G Co, and Mary

the doorkeeper at the concert last
night at the Wenatchee theatre.

found that the checks were no good

unknown at the bank and had no
funds there. The city police were
notified of the populations of the

man. He is described as an insignifi-
cant looking fellow, and is judged to
be of Swedish nationality.

two localities.

brought the two localities together
1t has been conceded that in or Ter
to get the state road located through
this section united work has to be
done by both counties. Both Chelan
and Douglas counties want the pro-
posed state road. The proposition is
that the road after crossing the Cas-
cades should go to Blewett and from
there down the Wenatchee river @
Wenatchee, then cross the Columbia
river bridge and from here go to
Waterville, and from there east to
Spokane and the Idaho line. Both
counties are agreed upon above

not diverted at Easton and run
through the Yakima country it is
agreed that this section of the coun-

SOMEWHAT HARD TO EXPLAIN
When Actor Offered Pawn Ticket In
Exchange for Coat Check.

In his "Reminiscences and Refiec.
tions.' Sir John Hare, the eminent
English actor, recalls an anecdote of
Leigh Murray, his instructor. Murray
was, at the time of the story, playing
at the Adelphi theater in London,
when his old friend, Sims Reeves, was
about to make his first appearance In
opera at Drury lane. Murray was
playing the part of an impecunious
young Swell who was very hard up,
and carried as property In the play
q pawn ticket, which replaced his
watch In his coat pocket. AS Murray
appeared on the scene In evening
dress, he thought 1t obviously unnec.
essary to change before adjourning
to Drury lane, and deposited his hat
and coat in the cloakroom there on ar
rival. In coming out, however in
stead of handing the attendant the
numbered ticket he had received, he
brought out unconsciously from his
waistcoat pocket the pawn ticket he
used on the stage. and gave 1t with a
lordly air to the astonished attendant.
much to his own modification when
his attention was drawn to 1t.

Slowly the customer gathered up
the coins OF the tray-first the half

the dimes. Then he looked through
the change in his pocket for nickel
to hand the waiter. but found none,
and the waiter took 1t for granted that
he would get a dime. after all.
But the customer fished out three
cent car ticket, laid 1t down and went
his way.
