Hardware Men
Will now Sell
Air Machines

Having gathered in a goodly number
of shekels as result of entering into
the automobile business because it
was favorably discussed at the last
meeting, it is now rumored that the
Inland Empire Implement and Hard
ware association will go in for flying
machines during the fifth annual con-
vention, which convened in Davenport's
Hall of the Doges in Spokane this
morning.
At least John Smith of Walla Walla,
one of the directors of the association,
who is in Spokane attending the an
nual meeting, believes it would not be
anticipating things too much for deal
ers to put in stocks of Wright aero
planes, Curtiss biplanes and the like.
Its the next thing on the program"
says Mr.. Smith.

And Also
Sustained

Reversing the decision of Judge
Brents in the case of Charles McEvoy
versus Andrew Taylor and wife, Coun-
ty Clerk Williams yesterday received
a document from the supreme court of
this state wherein the rights of the
defendant are put above those of the
plaintiff. There is a spring on the
Taylor property which not only affords
water for the former but also on the
McEvoy farm. McEvoy started injunc-
tion proceedings against Taylor to
prohibit him from allowing his cattle,
geese, ETC., to use this on the grounds
that it polluted the water and did not
allow him any for domestic purposes.
Another decision received was that
of Luella Wingard respondent VS..
Charles Leo Wingard appellant. The
superior courts decision in favor of
the plaintiff was confirmed and the
plaintiff is to recover from the defend
ant and the American Surety company,
Of New York, the sum of $3225.

Steele out
OF the Game

Through the injury of Tom Steele,
star forward of the Walla Walla high
school basketball team, who in prac-
tice last Wednesday evening tore the
muscles in his knee loose, thereby pre-
Guiding all possibility that he will en-
ter the game again this season, this
institution has probably lost all chance
OF the state championship pennant
which it was battling for so valiantly.
Steele, who is recognized by those
highest in the game as one Of the best
men the state has ever produced, was
the strength and mainstay of his ag-
gregation and by his loss, the team not
only loses confidence in it's own abil-
ity but is seriously weakened.
In a practice contest the other even
ing Steele fell in such manner that
he tore the muscles loose from his
knee and he is now in bed. 1t is ex-
pected that he will have to remain
there for several days longer and after
getting up will be forced to use
for at least month or six
weeks.
The local high team is now in dis
pair over the accident and aside from
their chances as champions
of the state, grieve over the injury of

Baby Stolen From It's Crib

Two Months Old Child of
Louisiana Couple Killed
In Own Yard.

GIBSON, La, Jan. 21-His little
body bruised and torn by the talons
of two giant eagles, who kidnapped him
from his crib and carried him to the
top of great oak tree, two months old
Rene Thebedaux lies dead today in the
Thebedaux home near Gibson. The
dead baby was taken from the branch
es of the tree where it was held by
its clothing after it's feathered abduc-
tors had been killed by men who ans
wered Mrs. Thebedaux's terrified
shrieks
The baby'S mother had left the era
die near the open door while she went
Rbout her work. With beating of
wings an enormous eagle almost i'm
mediately swooped at the cradle and
seized the child in it's claws and flap
ped to a tree in the yard where an
other eagle was perched. The woman's
agonized cries brought two farm
hands to the house. One attempted to
climb the tree where the baby lay
among the topmost branches, suspend
ed by it's clothing. He was driven
back by one of the birds, which at
tackled him savage,y. A shotgun was
brought from the house, but the men
were afraid to fire because the birds
hcvered over the baby's body. More
than two hours the child lay exposed
to the bitter wind while one of the
men hurried to the nearest neighbors
house for rifle. When he returned
the eagles were killed after sevral
shots wre fired The child was dead
from cold and the wounds the birds
sharp talons had inflicted before it
could be taken from the branches.
