MAYBE YOU CAN IDENTIFY 'EM.
A Number of People Were Asked

Were you in the vicinity of the Over

Thursday? And did pair of strang-

If that happened to you, you can
give valuable information to County
Attorney Nichols, who is here from
Madison to prosecute the two crooks
caught at Fremont with eleven of
Overocker's watches. You may be
valuable testimony. The county at
torney would appreciate it if you'll tell
him about it.
Three crooks captured at Fremont
by Sheriff Bauman proved to be men
wanted in Norfolk. Two of them
were wanted for burglarizing II. S.
Overocker's optical office, stealing a
dozen watches, and third was want
ed for cashing a bogus draft for
$3.50 at the jewelry store of G. II.
Burton. The men were identified in
Fremont last night and brought back
to Norfolk.
County Attorney Nichols arrived at
noon to prosecute them. Constable
John Flynn brought the men back
from Fremont.
The two men wanted for the watch
theft are Ed Manning and Joseph
yTepoe. They had sold one OF the
timepieces. They were arrested in a
Fremont saloon on suspicion by
Sheriff Bauman when he saw them
trying to sell watch. Later he found
that they were wanted in Norfolk. Mr..
Overocker identified the watches as
those stolen from him.
The bogus draft man was found
when searched to have SS46 in his
possession. He had cashed a draft at
Burton's store here Thursday, in buy
ing a watch. .-

CONSIDER THE LION, MEN!
Copy His Masterful Instincts and Be
Interesting.

Paris, June l3.-Let man consider
the lion and win back the "heroic yir-
tues A woman has implied that the
leveling influence of effete civilization
has made all men nuts. A Considera'
ton of the noble instincts Of the beast,
she says, might relieve this monoton'
Gus sameness. The woman is an &C
tress, Nine. Cecile Sorel, sometimes
called professional beauty" Her
comparison of lions and men, unfavor'
able to the human species, has just
been the subject of a violent newspa'
per attack by Henri Rochefort, wide
ly known writer.
IL am afraid of nothing" Nine. Sorel
said one night after performance at
the Coincide Franchise.
Not even of lions?" asked Baron
Henri de Rothschild, who was present
in the greenroOm.
mot even of lions" she replied.
Then will send you two" the gal
liant nobleman promised.
Lions are not to be bought in bur
ry, and it was several months before
the baron could fulfill his promise.
He has just sent the actress two little
cubs. male and female. She is
delighted.
What admirable examples the So
cety of lions Offers" said Nine. Sorel.
"Only men with the habit of command
have preserved particle OF noble in
stinct. Among men kings alone re-
semble lions, and kings are scarce.
"Effete and enervated by civiliza.
ton, the men of today have no in
stincts left. The only true nobleness
comes from instinct. That is why men
have lost the heroic virtues which
make the heart beat and fire the mag
ination. The greatest men, artists and
thinkers, have flashes of genius which
give one the fleeting illusion of mas.
terry. But their physical appearance
and the behavior which comes with
civilization, and which reduces every
one to the same dead level, are griev-
ously disappointing.
Lions, at all events, live up to their
reputation. Through the half-closed
lids of their eyes they cast look OF
sovereign contempt upon the world.
No human happening can disturb the
strong serenity of wild beasts. The
lion is his own masterful self. Who
can tell whose self the ordinary man
is? The greatest coquette among
women is a child compared with
lioness."
To which Henri Rochefort replied
that men, as we'll as lions, do live up
to their regulations; that, moreover, |
the regulations of men are better than
those of lions, and that Nine. Sorel |
was unfair, unjust and untruthful |
when she placed men on so low level.
Nine. Sorel and the newspaper writ.
err met afterwards at dress rehearsal
at the Coincide Franchise. She glared
with such wrath that onlookers fear
she will let loose her lions on Roche
fort one day when they are grown up.
AS for Rochefort. he would send
around his seconds if only Sorel were

A. ROAD WANTED

While so much is being said about
roads throughout the county, devel-
oplng new sections. ETC., it may be
well to look closer at home. We have
in the Wishkah valley, within seven
miles of Aberdeen, several fine farms,
that have been settled upon for many
years and are now being Abandoned
for lack of transportation facilities.
In early days those farms were pro-
fitably conducted as stock ranches,
which the growth of logging has put
and end to by cutting over the range.
Then the Wishkah river afforded
means of transportation Now, the
settlers say, the river is so shoaled
by splashing and damned with logs
that skiff cannot navigate it.
Jacob Anderson, who recently
bought the Hiram Hulet farm, four
miles from Aberdeen on an air line
finds it more costly for him to reach
this market with his produce than
does the gardner of the valleys of
California. Mr.. Anderson says he
could easily raise $4,000 worth of
produce this year, but. is unable to
get his wagon and implements in to
that place, and has no assurance
that he could get the produce to mar
ket.
