While the price of fresh eggs are
soaring around the luxury mark and
even case eggs that have been many
months in this cold world are pro-
hibited to many famines, a famine
in market fowls is reported by some
Of the meat dealers in Spokane.
Right there is where the rub be-
tween the meat dealers and the gro
cerymen comes in. Grocerymen de-
clare the hens won't get into the
habit of laying with any degree of
regularity and that's why hen fruit
can hardly be reached with hook
and ladder. Meat dealers declare
that because the vacation of the
hens is over and they have begun to
produce eggs again, the farmers re-
fuse to bring their fowls in to mar
ket, as they did few weeks ago.
In one shop meat dealer was un-
able to scrape up enough dressed or
undressed fowls to stock his market
last week from the Spokane supply
and had them shipped in from coun-
try towns.

It's up to the boys in blue to

has discovered a virus which is be-

Instead of trying it on the dog

stately officers are to be subject

proves a failure the privates can
have the laugh. The order states
that the surgeon and hospital
carps are first to be vaccinated
and after them come the officers

be called to volunteer their arms

On the 18th of February fall the
birthdays of two men who are
great, not to say unique, in the
history of the world. One of these
men was Charles Darwin, scientist.
author and philosopher. The 9th
er was Abraham Lincoln, hberator
and humanitarian.
The life lines of these two great
men ran in opposite directions and
the effects of their life work are
widely dissimilar.
Darwin gave much to human
knowledge. and as "a little knowl-
edge is a dangerous thing" the eff
feet of what he gave tended to
base all things upon the senses of
seeing, feeling and tasting, to the
destruction of faith, belief and the
spiritual sense of man. What we
get from him is from the brain
only, and the best of our anatom-
lists and other scientists are even
now just beginning to learn some
thing about the brain. He led us
up some of the steps toward the
throne of full understanding of
material things, but others will
follow who will throw light into
unknown places, beside which all
that Darwin shed will be but a
glimmer. Already, since Darwin,
we have begun to conquer the air,
an achievement greatest of all
since man first discovered fire.
Lincoln was a man of faith and

PLEDCER FUNERAL
THIS EVENING

The funeral of Rev. Clifton p.
Pledger will be held at the taber-
nacle at 1880 o'clock this evening.
DR.. E. L. House of the Westminster
Congregation church will conduct
the service, assisted by DR.. H. 1.
Rasmus, Rev. M. E. Dunn, Mrs.
Muirhead and Rev. A. Monroe.
The latter will offer the prayer
which touched Reverend Pledger
one evening at the tabernacle. The
choir of 1000 voices will also at
tend.
Owing to the fact that the taber-
nacle will be torn down tomorrow
it was decided to hold the service
tonight, in spite of the fact that
the mother will not reach here I'M
til tomorrow.
There will be a contribution ia
ken up this evening for the bereav-
ed mother. Reverend Pledger left
his mother an insurance policy for
$4,000. The remains will probably
be taken to Chicago for interment.

The company interposed the u.s.

three disinterested medical ex-

the defendant to acquire informa-

signed by Harry Blocker, secretary

part of a well laid plan of legal

there to face that other formidable

OF A GOOD SIZE
Town Property Changes Hands at a
Good Figure.

A property deal of some magnitude,
involving several thousand dollars,
was closed here yesterday when W.
G. De Wore purchased 75 front feet
on Mill Ave. from Thos. Goodwin. At
the same time l.. f. Bruce bought
from Mr.. Goodwin the fifty feet south
Of the property purchased by the
doctor. The De Wore property has on
it the Hanna blacksmith shop. Later
in the fall this shop will be. moved
from its present location and Dr. De
Wore will erect there a building II is
understood also that Mr.. Bruce pro-
poses to build on his property in the
very near future. While the purchase
price was not made public, it was I'M
derstood to be somewhere near $40
per front foot. That it will be worth
much more than that some day is
plain for that end of town is rapidly
building up as is the rest of Tempe
and the property sold yesterday at
figure substantially in advance of
what Mr.. Goodwin paid for it few
years ago.

LEAVE TOMORROW
ON A BUYING TRIP
Various Eastern Cities Will be Visited
During the Next Six Weeks.

Mr.. and Mrs. w. E. Coach will
leave tomorrow morning on an ex-
tended eastern shopping trip, as it
might be termed, for the main pur-
pose of it is to buy stock for the fall
and winter business in their Tempe
establishment. While away they will
make purchases in Chicago, st. Louis.
Kansas City and st. Joe. Mrs. Coach
will also take advantage of the Occa-
sion to spend a week or so in the
work room Of one of the prominent
eastern millinery establishments,
where she will have a good chance to
take notes on the fall styles. Getting
in close touch with the work through
this means, she will be able to learn
much more than she possibly could in
any other way. On their return to
Tempe, they will stop over a short
time at their former home in Denver
and will probably be absent a month
or six weeks.
During their absence Miss Murphy
will have full charge of the store and
the business will continue as usual.
Miss Murphy has been associated with
the Coaches for the past year or
more and fully understands every
phase of the business. The store
could not be left in more competent
hands.
