SUNDAY LID NOT
ON THERE

Sometime ago, with the usual
flourish, Prosecuting Attorney
Barnhart issued a sweeping order
closing all saloons in the county
on Sunday. But people who have
spent the last few Sundays at
Clear lake, famous bass fishing
place few miles from Medical
Lake, say that two saloons there
are allowed to run wide open and
that drunken men rove around the
streets, hurting beer bottles at one
another and creating such a dis.
turbance that the pleasure seekers
leave in despair of having the good
time and vacation they set out for.
1t is supposed to be the duty of
Sheriff Doak to carry out the Barn.
hart orders, unless told to disre-
gard them in certain instances.
The order, it is said, is strictly en-
forced all over the county except
at Clear lake.

LITTLE BOBBY
MUST GO BACK

Little Bobby Scurlock. age IL,
his roller skates, clarinet and au-
tomato bass-drum beaten, are
held at police headquarters await
ing the arrival of James c. Sour
lock, a Standpoint, Idaho, skating
rink man, who is Bobby's father.
Bobby will probably get spanking
when dad comes, for he ran away
out into the broad world he
knows so little about. The articles
captured with him are the choicest
possessions of his heart.
Bobby reads dime novels, too.
That was what exaggerated his lit
tie mind. He wanted to go out
and be brave man and fight out
laws, and things, and earn his own
living with his clarinet and get
him a bass-drum, too. He took
along his skates for recreation.
Bobby is a pug-nosed urchin and
generally of the type of the great
men are made OF. He didn't have
any money when the Northern Pa
cific Overland went through his
home town last night, but he
climbed aboard just the same and
curled up and went to sleep. He
was rudely awakened by the con-
ductor. When the train reached
Spokane there was policeman,
telegram in hand, telling how
Bobby looked, dressed, pug nose
and all. 1t was from Bobby's
father and was short and curt.
Bobby ruined" away.

GRAVES PEOPLE
SPRING THEIR
OWN TRAP

The board of works is still tied
up on the Sprague av. fill project
A change of front on the part OF
the Graves interests is responsible
for the present puzzle. At first the
Graves people demanded that a
100 foot span be constructed to adj
nit passage of the Inland line. The
plans on which bids were sub
mitted called for two SO foot
spans. The Graves people decided
finally that nothing but the 100
foot span would do and it devel-
oped that g. 3. Dennis was the
only bidder to make an offer on
this basis.
Corporation Counsel Hamblen
later ruled that the railway COM
pany could be made to pay the en-
tire expense of the plan. The
Graves interests then suddenly de-
cided that a 80 foot span would do
nicely. The difference in cost
when the company had to pay, it
seems, to have been very potent
factor Now the board and engi-
neer are trying 10 figure out a plan
whereby everybody can be accom-
modated after going ahead and ad-
vertising on its own designs.
Why the whole thing should be
remodelled at this late day simply
because the Inland company may
have to pay the cost it sought to
impose on the city and now seeks
to reduce to the minimum on it's
own responsibility regardless of
trouble and delay is not at all
clear. Had the city been held for
the entire cost, as the company
originally planned, there would
have been no complaint from a
corporation source. The Graves
people walked into their own
trap.
The Dennis bid on a dry fill. rock
walls without cement, is $4,000
in round numbers. 1t has not been
formally accepted.
1t is claimed that a reliable esti-
mate has been made showing that
concrete bridge can be built at
Sprague av. for $4,000.

At MEDICAL Lake

Complaint against conditions at

CARDS the care of defective chill
dren has been made by Judge Fra
ter of the King county superior
court. He has lately made an in
spection of the children's quar-

only slightly affected mentally, for
whom there is hope of cure, are
kept in contact with the hopeless
when they ought to be provided
with more elevating surroundings
Judge Frater will endeavor to
have a law passed next winter
remedying this and other defects
in the present system of caring for
unfortunate children.

FRIED CHICKEN.

Fried chicken is, of course, my
chief recollection of the poultry
dishes "mother used to make" says
Christine Terhune Herrick in the
May Delineator. We had roast
chicken, besides, and barbecued
and smothered and boiled chicken
and roast and boiled turkey and
roast duck. But fried chicken was
as regular an article on the Virginia
bill of fare as beefsteak is in some
northern homes,-chicken, fried,
plain or with cream gravy, with ba'
con or without. Broiled chicken
appeared pretty often-we always
had it for breakfast Sunday morn.
ing--but it was not such a real
Virginia dish as fried chicken. The
southern cook Of old times might
fail at anything else in the culinary
line, but | don't believe l aver
heard of one who got her "han' out"
in cooking poultry.
For this you must have young
chickens OF broiling size. and they
must be cut apart as for fricassee.
rinsed, wiped dry, peppered lightly
and then rolled in -four, a piece at
a time. Meanwhile half a pound
of salt pork should have been
sliced and cooked in a frying pan
long enough to make the fat flow,
but not enough to brown the pork.
In this fat lay the pieces Of chicken
and fry to a good brown, turning
the pieces as they cook. When all
are done take out with a fork, so as
TO free from grease, and lay in a
hot dish. Set this in the open ".
