SLUCGEO Him
WITH BUCKET
GROCER GELlNA GOT RID OF
hoLDUP BY NERvY WORK,
BUT HOLDUP PUT BULLET
IN GELlNA'S ARM.

Armed only with a metal water
bucket against determined thug
with revolcer to force his argu-
ments, John Gelina, proprietor of
the Enterprise grocery, Gordon
avenue and Addison street, fought
to a finish and saved his cash at
the expense of a bullet wound
through his left arm, Saturday
night. No one has seen the other
fellow since, but the much bat
tered bucket tells mutely of the
effectiveness Of Gelina's defense.
Gelina was watering his horses
back of the store when the thug,
revolver in hand, ran up to him,
commanding to the put 'em up"
There was about 500 in recent
collections inside the store at
stake. The hands went up, but
"Swish! bang!" went the bucket
through the air, and with a crash
on top of the bad mans head, at
the end of Gelina's brawny arm.
Gelina hit the holdup twice, stag
gering him badly, then leaped in
side the rear door of the store. A
bullet from the thugs gun cut
through his left arm and grazed
his side just at that juncture, but
he soon had the door bolted, and
the would be robber ran away for
his own safety. Gelina is in bed
today. though no serious complica-
tions are expected from his wound.
The bucket will be kept for a
souvenir and some guns will take
its place in the future. The police
are looking for man with a
marred countenance.

perstitious fear of them sprung up
and to guard against the recur-
renee of another visitation of spirit
ual displeasure, the head men de-
cided that all twins should be
killed at birth.
The edict was always carried out
until Him-yean-hi-hi became the
mother of Tox-e-lux and A-lom-pum.
A council was held and it was de-
cided to kill the babes. But the
father was wise. He had a vision
and went before the council and
told it he was doctor, and sue
ceeded in making the tribesmen be-
lieve that spirit had visited him
in his sleep and told him that he
would be the father of twins and
that they were to come as a favor
able omen, the sign of the Great
Spirits pleasure and a guarantee of
good fortune to come. His intensity
and evident sincerity won. Today
the twins are growing into willowy
maids and give promise of rivaling
in beauty the daughters of Cougar
Shirt, the first twins who brought
death to 500 Cayuse warriors and
misfortune to the tribe.

VOTE FOR THE
AMENDMENTS

Until the present campaign it
was not generally known that the
initiative and referendum and re-
call were so popular with the
aspirants for city offices. They are
almost without exception in favor
of these amendments.
But voters must be careful to
vote for these amendments in the
regular city election. There will be
some opposition to their adoption
and the people who favor political
reforms must see to it that their
ballots are marked in favor OF
their adoption.
The amendments are the most
important to be voted on in the
coming city election. If adopted,
other reforms needed can be Sc
cured through the initiative, which
permits the voters to legislate for
themselves.

They are girls and are the only

to the customary death penalty

tunate enough to come into the
world at the same time.
About the time when George
Washington was fighting Indians,
Chief Oui-a-mi-keen- Cougar Shirt
was chief of the Cayuses who then
held sway in the lands from the
Blue mountains to the Columbia
river. He was the father of two
girls, twins, and famed beauties.
They were budding into woman
hood when the young Bannock
braves paid a friendly visit to the
Cayuse tribe, became enamored
with the duo, and finally kidnapped
them and fed toward the Bannock
territory over the mountains to the
Snake river. Three hundred Cay
use warriors, headed by Cougar
Shirt, went in pursuit, but the Ban
nocks with their prizes escaped.
The chieftain father swore veng-
ance. Runners were dispatched to
the Walla Walla and Umatilla
tribes. An alliance was formed
and war declared on the Snake
river redmen. But before the al
lies could get their war party to-
