word "the" had been omitted preced-
ing the words estate of Missouri.
Now comes a reversal based on tine
omission of the letter "e." The DIS
patch from Jefferson City reads:
Judge CAN'T filed in Division No. 2
of the supreme court, June 20, an
opinion reversing and renanding two
wears, sentence of Leo Judd of st.
Iouis for fraudulent registration in
September, 1904. The case is reversed
on the ground of a defective informa :
ton of the prosecuting attorney The
information charged Judd with regis
tering under the name of Charles
Cohn. bur charged that he signed the
registration book by the name OF
Charles Cohen. The different spelling
of the name. the court finds, makes it
an entirely different name and makes
the two parts of the information re-
pugnant to each other and the indict-
ment defective. The case is remanded
that the circuit attorney may file an
other information if he so desires"
Judge CAN'T is not personally re-
sponsible: the judicial system of Mis-

CROPS AND BUSINESS.

Even though the country IS in the
period of it's midsummer dullness
merchants and business men in all
lines report trade conditions to be I'M
usually favorable Business is buoyed
up, no doubt, by the great future
promised by the harvesting Of the
heavy crops that are now ready for
the sickle. For the next two months
the farmers of the Walla Walla val
ley viii be engaged in harvesting one
of the well known large crops of
grain. Wheat, from early tests, will
run from % to- so bushels to the acre
and barley just about double that. A
dollar a bushel is the price being
spoken of generally; and some farm
ers have their grain contracted at this
figure. At any rate, the price will be
little short of the even money, and
may Perhaps be considerably more.
Indications point to the largest price
in years.
With this for the basis of prosper
ity and with the crop made, there is
little wonder that the mercantile and
allied interests are able to make a
strong showing. even in midsummer
For with a good crop and the extra
ordinary price assured more money

THE AUDITORIUM.

To keep one good vaudeville bill fol- lowing another is the present policy of the management of the Auditorium, and after feeling the public's pulse have prescribed a comedy bill for the coming week.
 Miller and Russell will start the big laugh side splitting comedy act The Lunatic and the Girl. This is most pretentious offering with its own spec ial scenery and effects. The complica tions which arise from each of the characters mistaking the other for in mates of an insane asylum are ridicu- lous in the extreme.
 A versatile instrumentalist Al Allen, the Music Master, renders a varied musical enteTtainment mastering sev- eral entirely different instruments in the short space of fourteen minutes
 Wilson and Mae will keep the audi ence in good humor with "a bunch of nonsense" which includes comedy sing ing, dancing and talking.

Then go to the Broadway theater this aft ernoon or evening where Charlotte Temple will be produced for the first time in this city. The action of the true story upon which this play is founded took place during the revo- lutionary and when the management decided to produce the piece in that period, they also decided to be as au- thentic as possible in all details and, with this idea in mind hunted up the descendants of the original Charlotte Temple, who have always lived in England. Through the kind courtesy of these people, when located. valuable information was received. The cos- tunes used are almost exact dupli- cates of those worn by the original Charlotte Temple and the other char acters and the scenes depicted are painted copies of the actual neighbor- hoods treated of
