GOOD JOKE ON GEORGE ApE.
A Troublesome Affinity" Turns Out to
BE a Man In Disguise.

CHICAGO, Feb. 5.-George AIDES al
legged affinity" fashionab1y attired
but with voice filled with bitterness
tears of woe streaming down her
cheeks and with a dramatic air which
carried conviction. entered the Audito-
rum annex the other night where 800
members of the Indiana Society of Chi
cago were gathered for spread. She
claimed AIDE a. her own, caused bushes
of the brightest crimson to mantle his
cheeks and then led him away to one
side, where she tried to converse ami
cably with him. The stranger claimed
to be from France.
The members of the Indiana society
were all deeply chagrined for the time
being by the unlocked for intrusion
especially as Ade was one of the guests
of honor.
Chagrin changed to hilarity wher
the feminine treble of the supposed
affinity" changed to deep bass, and
the fact became apparent that ths
stranger wasn't woman at all-jus'
"a plain male member of the society
with false hair and other fixings. and
lit was all a joke, anyhow.

FARMER MAKES RICH FIND.
Unearthed $4,000 Buried Under Z
Tree In His Orchard.

NEW LONDON, Wis, Feb. 5.-Louis
Hoffman, farmer living on Nordman
hill, two miles south of this city, mas
discovered a atreasure-amount, $50, ,OOO
in money-buried under a tree in his
orchard. The discovery was made
several weeks ago, but has been kept
mors of the astonishing find have been
afioat for some time.
Hoffman is jealousy guarding all de-
tails of his find in order to be able to
locate the real owner of the treasure
Already a host of claimants have ap-
peared, besieging Hoffman with vari-
Gus claims.
Where the money came from is a
mystery. although clue has been es-
tabliShed. Some time ago a stranger
giving his name as Harry Palmer. OF
Chicago, appeared in this locality and
obtained work on the Hoffman farm.
While staying at the Hoffman place the
stranger is said to have displayed a
huge roll of money.
Not long afterward Palmer disap-
peared and nothing more was heard of
him until a story came from Chicago
of the arrest of Harry Palmer on q
charge of robbery. While in Jail the
man committed suicide.

ONE on THE GAME WARDEN
ARRESTS ITALIANS FOR KILLING
sNiPE BUT IT TURNS oUTA
SNOW BIRD.

why does a snow bird look a cross
between wOod-pecker and a snipe,"
is the question being propOunded by
Game Warden Whitney today, and the
best solution he had found to the puz-
zle up to press time was the answer.
Because it has long legs"
Charley became fully convinced this
afternoon that the game laws of WAL
la Walla county were being fagrantly
violated. and to make an example of
the law breakers, he escorted num-
Der Of Italian hunters to the court
house about l o'clock, for the purpose
of having them punished for killing
game birds out of season. The life
less little bird which was to serve as
mute evidence to the misdemeanOr.
was carefully carried into Justice
Huffman's office, wrapped in a piece
of soft cloth.
: After stating~his case and, depositing
the bird on His Honor's desk, Charley
introduced the game as evidence, and
stood expectantly awaiting sentence to
be pronounced. Judge Huffman cleared
his throat, adjusted his glasses and un-
wrapped the bundle, only to find
therein so-called snow-bird, showing
just the faintest signs of snipe breed
ing. That the dead bird was not a
game one, was the opinion of the judge,
and upon his suggestion the case
against the Italians was dismissed.
The treats were on Charley. but he
still maintains that the feathered
songster is a cross between a snipe
and some other winged specimen. and
therefore entitled to be classed as a
game bird. The Italians were not a
little relieved to find that their Of
fense was not as serious as first sup
posed. and heaved a sigh of relief
when given instructions to take them
selves hence.
