SENTENCE PALOUSE
BANKER
One to Ten Years in Prison
Penalty on Embezzle-
ment Conviction.

Colfax, Wash, July Al. M.
Boone, formerly president of the de-
funct Palouse state bank, former
state senator and state bank examin-
err, was today given an indeterminate
sentence of one to ten years by
Judge Garfield, after motion for a
new trial had been overruled.
Boone has been found guilty of
embezzlement in connection with
raising the capital stock $4,000.
Judge Garfield asked Boone if he
had anything to say before the SEN
tence was pronounced. Boone re-
marked he wished to inform the
judge he Vas pronouncing sentence
upon an absolutely innocent man.
Boone gave bond for $4,000 and
will appeal to the supreme court for
a new trial.
NJ J. Hawkinson, who bought the
bank six months before it failed, is
a fugitive from justice, but brought
suit in Spokane against Boone TO ger
back 220 acres of land given Boone
in the trade for bank stock, the land
being valued at $4,000. This, with
Boone's $4,000 home, was put in es-
crow by Boone to protect the bank.
The Spokane case was dismissed and
the escrow will be bank assets.

BRUCE GR|GGS ON
UPPER RIVER
Has Chage Of Little Steamer
Chas. Bureau Running
UP Okanogan.

Okanogan. Wash, July 5, 1910
Capt. Bruce Griggs assumed COM
mand of the steamer Charles Bureau
Monday after a layoff of week dur
ing which time he visited Spokane
During his absence the steamer was
in charge of her former master, Cant
Bureau. Up to date the steamer
Bureau has made just forty trips IN
the Okanogan river this year. the
same number she made during the
entire navigation season last year.
She haHls about twenty-one tons o.,
freight to the trip. The present stage
of the river indicates that navigation
will soon be closed for this season.
which is a big disappointment TO the
shippers of the valley, as there are
hundreds OF tons of freight vet al
Brewster destined for the upper
country. The large boats have ceased
to make the Okanogan run owing TO
the low water. The closing OF navi-
cation so early is unusual, but is &C
counted for by the early spring which
let so much snow out OF the noun
tains before the boats were ready 20
take advantage OF the high water.

GREAT SNOWMAN s
CENTENARY
Bridgeport, Conn.,, Has a
Bronze Statue Erected to
Honor P. T. Barnum.

Bridgeport, Conn, July 5.-Per-
sons who passed the heroic bronze
statue of Phineas T. Barnum which
adorns one of the public parks of
this city were reminded by several
costly floral wreatns placed about
the base of the memorial that today
marked the centenary of the birth
Of the famous Snowman, who has
been called the father of the Am
erican circus" The birthplace of
the man who introduced Tom
Thumb, the sacred white elephant"
and other famous freaks to the pub
lie, who paid Jenny Lind 900 a
night ~ tour America, and who la
ter organized and managed 1.-The

little town Of Bethel in this state,
bit IL was in Bridgeport that he
made his home during the greater
part IT his career and where he es-
tabIighej the permanent headquar-
tiers Of his colossal circus enter
priseg.
During his lifetime Mr.. Barnum
bestowed many gifts upon the city
of Bridgeport. and there still exist
here many reminders of the famous
Snowman, chief among them, of
course, being the winter quarters of
the circus which still bears his name
But the members Of his family have
long since deserted the city. The
Barnum country place. Marina, at
Seaside Park, was sold 10 strangers
within a few years after the show
mans death. Mr.. Barnum's widow
has resided abroad for many years.
While travelling In Egypt she met
Demetrius Callias Bey. Greek, to
whom she was married In 1895. They
returned to the United States after
the wedding and 1t is said that the
Bey would have gone to Marina to
live only that the bronze statue of
Mr.. Barnum stood in the park In
front of the house. The statue could
not be moved, as it belonged to the
city.
Callias Bey died in 1896, after a
welded life of a year. 1t Is said
that during that time he made big
hole in the fortune of the American
Snowman About ten years ago the
widow married a Frenchman for her
third husband. Their married life
proved unhappy and within a few
years they were divorced
