COLONIST TRAVEL WILL
BE HEAVY NEXT WEEK

This is the last day that residents
OF the middle western states will be
permitted to take advantage of the
spring eolonist rates to the north
west for 1909 and the next five days
promises to witness one OF the great
est influx of settlers into the north
west ever seen. Information to this
effect was received this morning by
Local Agent Schuyler. In the mes
sage received by him from Jack o.
Neill. travelling passenger agent, it was
stated that the colonist travel for the
next five days would be particularly
heavy.
1t was also stated that Mr.. Schuyler
would be notified in advance of the
number of passengers to be trans
ferred from No. and No. at this
place for points on the Washington
division. This will be expedient mas
much as the great-number Of trans
fers will make it necessary to have
one or more extra coaches on the Spo-
kane train, which leaves here about
noon each day.

SPOKANE BOY FTGTHs
WITH A COUGAR

Spokane.-Louis Johnson, 1S-year
son Of Gust Johnson, of Johnson e.
Son butchers, had an exciting exper-
ience with a cougar later yesterday af-
ternoon. Young Johnson was hunting
cattle, and when passing under a
tree near the slaughter house saw a
large shadow coming toward him.
Dodging instinctively, he miraculous
ly escaped the full force OF the ami
NAL, large cougar, which had sprung
from the tree upon him. He was not
quick enough to avoid the sharp claws
and was severely scratched about the
face and head.
A large cattle dog, an inseparable
companion Of the young man, fierce
ly attached the lion after its spring
upon his master. Johnson extricated
himself from the fighting pair. seiz-
ed club, and after belaboring the
lion for some minutes, chased it up
another tree. Running to the house
a short distance, and securing a gun,
Johnson returned to finish the fight
and found the animal gone.

WHEAT RISE BRINGS SUI
FERING TO RETAIL BAKERS

New York.-The inability of certain
of the jobbers to resist the tempta-
ton to take profits on supplies pur-
chased months ago Is condemned by
the mill agents as poor business policy
under existing circumstances. When
the flour was held for merely specu-
lative purposes their criticism does
not hold, but when it was intended for
active consuming requirements it is a
better proposition. they say, to hold
on to it, as ii cannot be replaced at
the prices they are accepting. These
jobbers, however, say they are entitl,
ed to their own opinions as to the fu-
ture course of the market, and are
firm in the belief that they had better
take their products while they can, as
they profess to foresee disaster for the
Patten deal and a consequent tumb-
ling of values. So far, however, their
arguments are supported only by
theories while sellers are backed by
an actual condition namely, steadi-
ly advancing market for flour, with
no one to say that the crest Of the
wave has arrived.
The actual sufferer up to the pres
ent is the retail baker. For weeks the
cost of his material has been growing
dearer, but he has not been able to
advance the price of bread, chiefly
because Of public sentiment, but it is
apparent that he has now heached the
point where he must be brave enough
to advance his price or go out of busi-
ness, as his profits have been cut al
most to the vanishing point.
