expected to join party composed vi
Mr.. and Mrs. Luhring, Miss Blackler,
and Stanley and Robert Evans, on
horseback excursion to Cathedral peak,
one of the many beauty spots in the
mountain ranges west of LOOMS. Miss
Umbarger and her mother arrived at
Riverside. fortnight ago from Kansas
City, and expect to make their future
home in Okanogan county. They were
here some two years ago, and became
SO enamored of the country they de-
cided to return to stay.

several days in Orovile last week,
leaving for their respective homes
Monday morning. 1t was f. f. Doro-
thy's first visit to Washington, but it
can almost be said that Marion DOro-
thy is "a native here and to the man
or born" as he has been resident
of eastern Washington and Oregon for
years. He is an old friend of Guy
Fruit, with whom he rounded up cattle
when the present wealthy and well
populated Inland Empire was a wide
expanse of almost unoccupied and UNI

JUMPED AT NATURES BIDDING.
Would-Be Suicide Not Completely
NerVed for Final Parting.

With groan OF despair he made up
his mind to die.
Ruined financially, and with not a
particle Of nope for getting ON HIS
feet again, he realized that the only
chance for his family escaping pauper-
ism and its attendant miseries was TO
obtain immediate use of his heavy
life insurance.
Furthermore, II he fingered on he
would be unable to pay the premiums
on his policies, which unfortunately
were not old enough to carry them
selves. so that they would forthwith
lapse.
Death, therefore, was the only solu-
ton to the problem. 1t was a decision
the bitterness OF which can only be
understood by those forced by circum-
stances to confront II.
He put on his hat and overcoat and
went out Of the house, lest the express
sion on his telltale eountenance should
betray to his loved ones his fell inten.
ton. While he was tFaVersing the
crowded streets he would consider the
best and least suspicious modes OF
concentrating his purpose. II he
could encompass It so that the thing
looked to the world like an accident,
SO much the better. There would
then be no scandal.
As he stepped from the curb to
cross the street an automobile, driven
by reckless joy-riding chauffeur,
came tearing around the corner at ter
rifying speed.
And the energetic leap which the
would-bs suicide made back to the
sidewalk out Of harms way was a
caution. >snSa,

Antiquity Of the sausaas.

The sausage dates back to the year
Ss7. It has been asserted that the
Greeks In the days OF Homer manu-
featured sauBages, but this prehistoric
mixture had nothing In common with
our modern product. The ancient so
called sausage was composed OF the
same materials which enter into the
makeup Of tho boudih OF the French
market and the blood pudding OF the
French-CaRadian. The ancient sausage
was enveloped In the stomaehs OF
goats. Not until the teRth century did
the sausage made OF hashed pork be-
come known. II was in or near the
year 1900 that, thanks TO the introduc-
tion into Germany OF cinnamon and
saffron. the sausages Of Frankfort and
Strassburg acquired a uniVers repu-
tation.

THE STOCK LAW.

We learn that petitions are be-
ing circulated in town asking the
Council to suspend the Stock Law
for some time during the summer.
during certain specified hours. We
learn that these lists are numer-
" signed, and mostly by persons
having no cattle aud not carried on
the tax rolls. There are, however,
many tax payers who have signed
the lists and favor the suspension
of this law during the summer
months to allow the cattle to roam
at large and cut down the crop OF
tall grass which the authorities
allow to grow. Some few grasses
were cut in some places, but there
is enough grass to feed a good.
big drove of cattle for quite a long
time.
We are not in favor of suspend
ing this law, but We are IN favor
of the town at least keeping the
streets, cutters aud sidewalks free
of grass, which is not done; right
now We have some of our side
walks covered with tall grasses
when there is a special ordinance
compelling owners to cut the graH'
on their sidewalks. Right OF
Washington streets small willows
are growing in the bitches. If TIT
town authorities cannot keep TIT
town free from tall grasses, We he
lieve the next best thing to do i
to give the COW q change to SCI
what they can do in that line.
We know this would be retro

PARISH STOCK LAW
REPEALED.

The Police Jury atits May meet
ing passed a Stock Law which was
to take effect on and after Janua-
ry let 1910.
As soon as it became known to
the planters of the parish that q
Stock Law was passed, they ex-
pressed their opposition to the
Law, and. from appearances, work
ed up by some of the politicians,
went to work and circulated petit
tons which were numerously sign-
OIL and presented to the Police Jury
Monday, by a large delegation
from every ward in tie parish.
Mr.. Emile Vuillemot, attorney,
represe nted the farmers and pre-
sented their petitions to the Jury,
and Mr.. r. Martin made a strong
argument in favor Of the law, but
to no avail, it could be clearly seen
that the thing was decided before
the meeting of the Jury, that the
law was going to be repealed.
The Messenger has advocated
the passing OF such law several
years ago, and we are still of the
opinion that a Stock Law would
be to the great benefit of the far.
ming interest even if it may create
a little hardship on few persons
who feed their few head of STOCK
on the lands of others.
We believe that the majority Of
the farmers did not look upon thu
right side of the law, they neve
considered the expense Of building
and keeping the vast system o
fences at tho present time 10 th'
parish and its present bad condi
ton, they never considered tn
value it would give to the req
estate of the parish, when Ian
could be cultivated without put
ting q fence around it. but. thei
best argument, their plea for tb
repeal. was not for those signin
, the petitions, but for the poor, oil

COTTON HITS HIGH MARK.
May and Other Active Options Make
Records for Year.

New high records for the season were
made in the local cotton market yester-
day, the May option going to 1926. a gain
of II points over the preceding days
close. and the highest price touched by
cotton since the Sully corner in 1904.
The other active options also reached
new high records for the year, the gains
ranging from 10 10 IA points. The advance
was attributed to strong general buying,
there being no particular news develop
ments to account for the rise.
The market opened steady, prices being
unchanged TO 6 points higher. but a lot of
cotton came but during the forenoon,
which depressed prices somewhat. The Of
ferings were well absorbed, however, the
demand apparently being greater than the
supply and around the noon hour prices
began to advance and continued upward
until Just before the close, when there was
a slight reaction due to realizing. The
market closed at a net advance OF from
> TO 13 points, the final figures for May
being 1924.
