Curious Dove

Frank Martin was out after doves
the other day and succeeded in bagging
curiosity in the shape of nearly
snow white dove. The breast and all
underneath, with its wings, are pure
white with exception of long feather
on the outside of each wing, which is
dove color. 1t certainly was a beauty
and one of those freaks of nature that
no man can account for.-Echo.

Convict Labor Profitable.

PRISONERS worked on the public
highways in Washington earned s1.6s
day each in March, according to the
report of Henry L. Bowlby, state
highway commissioner for Washing
ton. This sum was realized as profit
by the state, estimating the work aft
contract rates, after the cost of main
tanning the convicts' camp had been
deducted from the total value of the
work The building of public high
ways in Washington received an i'm
pulse when the last legislature laid
out comprehensive plan for high
way development. Leading TO this ac-
ton has been a growing demand from
each road district. A chair of high
way engineering was established in
1907 in the University of Washing
ton, and at the time of the exposition
a building was constructed on the
university campus, marked good
roads"

Adams, of Gnnzaga college, in Spokane,
said:
Spokane will not begin to get mucn
of view of the famous gypsy of the
skies until the 18th to the goth of this

able to see the comet for an hour or
we may expect to get, however will not
be until May %. From that time until
the end of June the comet will be a
wonderful spectacle in the western sky
for an hour after sunset. The tar,
should be visible, though there is some
speculation as to how brilliant it will
appear
Speaking of the probability of harm
to the earth, Father Adams said: Il
think there will be absolutely no
danger to the earth. The comet VIII be
marvellous spectacle, abous as large
as the sun, but it will quietly disappear
after it's strongest appearance, and by
the end of July will cross the orbit of
Mars and be only memory. The faint
spectroscopic indications of deadly
gases should alarm nobody. The world
will wag on just the same, and no as

other view. Spokane will have as good
a view of the comet as anybody else
where will obtain. The region west OF

Automobile TdngIe
Given to the Jury

The civil suit of Henry Diebel and
oscar Moberg against Arthur Skinner,
for the recovery of $4,000, alleged to
be due as payment on White Steamer
automobile, wrongfully in possession Of
defendant, was heard in the superior
court this morning, plaintiffs being rep
resented by Attorney Cain, and defend
ant by John Sharpstein. The COM
plant recites that Mr.. Skinner IS
wrongfully in possession of a model
80" White Steamer valued at $4,000, and
alleges that he refused to give up pos
session when requested by plaintiffs to
do so on January %.
The jury which heard the case was
composed of the following: n. D.
Blackman, A. Schwarz, Mark Reavis,
w. HI. Barnett, A. S Merry, Frank Par
son, Waldo Boyle, H. L. Hubbard, Geo.
H. Wolf, u G. Knowlton, c. G. Stadle-
man and F. T. Ruble.
Testimony presented tended to show
that Mr.. Skinner purchased the ma
chine from one Robert Brown, who
was supposed to have been acting as
representative for Diebel & Moberg, the
consideration of the transfer being
$500. Plaintiffs testified that they re-
ceived no money for the auto from
Brown, who some weeks ago was given
hearing in justice court on the charge
of stealing the auto, and acquitted.
Brown gave plaintiffs written re-
ceipt for the steamer when it was
turned over to him, but the testimony
introduced by the plaintiffs was to the
effect that a verbal agreement had
been made providing that Brown
should have authority only to secure
a purchaser, whereupOn either Mr.. Die
bel or Mr.. Moberg would come to Wal
la Walla to close the transaction. The
point to be determined was whether
title 70 the machine was passed when
the transfer was made by Brown to Mr..
Skinner
Diebel & Moberg are residents OF
Lewiston, and following the action
against Brown in justice court, they
instituted proceedings in the superior
court against defendant for the recov
cry of $4,000.
