Locals Lost At CrangeviIIe.

The local bunch of ball tossers
lost the game at Grangeville Sun
day by the narrow margin of one
run after having it in their pock-
ct repeatedly. Cottonwood start
ed the ball rolling with two scores
secured in the third inning and
soon h e score stood 8 to 8
and would have remained that
way but for poor support in the
out field. Three muffed flies, a
couple errors .on bases and a
bunch of bad decisions gave
Grangeville the game by a score
of 9 to 8. However, we will let
the Free Press tell how it hap
pened, for one of the staff of
that paper umpired and ought(?)
to know how it occurred.

The closest game of baseball
ever played on Camas prairie
was played Sunday afternoon at
the Jenny farm north of town
when the Jenny team defeated
the Greencreek nine by a score
of 2 to l. The game was snappy
from start to finish and the $50
persons who witnessed it declar-
ed it the best they had seen this
season. After the game a dance
was enjoyed by those present
until a late hour. The winning
team will play at Keuterville
next Sunday.
The Keuterville and F e n n
teams played at Keuterville Sun
day, the latter winning by a
score of Is to 6.

AWAITING an Answer,

A most ridiculous question was
asked recently by a very verdant
young policeman who had just joined
the force. He was going on duty for
the first time, and the superintendent
was giving him some final instruc-
lions.
"You have" he said, "your whistle,
which you must blow when you need
assistance; you have your hand
cuffs to enable you to bring your
prisoners to the station; and you have
your club, which you will require when
using physical force"
The verdant one paid profound at
tention to the remarks Of his supe-
rior, although he looked rather puz-
zled about something. However, the
only inquiry he made was when the
superintendent mentioned physical
force, but this inquiry fairly knocked
the latter off his feet.
do T." he meekly inquired Of the
superintendent, "carry the supply of
physical force in a tin or a bottle,
ir?"-London Tit-Bits.

OMAHA PEOPLE
GREATLY EXCITED
THE GREAT COOPER AS HE IS
CALLED HAS STIRRED UP THAT
CITY TO A REMARKABLE
DEGREE.

Omaha, Nebraska, January 26.-This
city is at present in the midst of an
excitement beyond anything that it
has experienced in recent years.
Old and young, rich and poor, all
seem to have become beside them
selves over an individual who was a
stranger to Omaha up to two weeks
ago.
The mar who has created all this
turmoil is L. 7. Cooper, President Of
the Cooper Medicine Co., of Dayton,
Ohio, who is at present introducing
his preparations in this city for the
first time.
cooper is a man about thirty years
OF age and has acquired a fortune
within the past two years by the sale
of some preparations of which he is
the owner.
reports from eastern cities that pre-
ceeded the young man here were of
the most startling nature, many Of
the leading dailies going so far as to
state that he had nightly cured in
public places rheumatism of years
standing with n of his preparations.
The physicians of the East contradict
ed this statement, claiming the thing
to be impossible, but the facts seemed
to bear out the statement that Cooper
actually did so.
In consequence people f1ocked to
him by thousands and his epa
tons sold like wildfire.
Many of these stories were regard
ed as fictitious in Omaha and until
Cooper actually reached this city little
attention was paid to them. Hardly
had the young man arrived. however.
when he began giving demonstrations,
as he calls them, in public, and daily
met people afflicted with rheumatism,
and with a single application of one
OF his preparations actually made
them walk without the aid of either
canes or clutches.
In addition to this work Cooper ad-
vanced the theory that stomach trou-
bic is the foundation of nine out of
ten diseases and claimed to have a
preparation that would restore the
stomach to working order and thus
get rid of such troubles as catarrh and
affections of the kidneys and liver, in
about two weeks time.
This statement seems to have been
borne out by the remarkable results
obtained through the use of his prep
a%ration, and now all Omaha is APP
parently mad over the young man.
How long the tremendous interest
in Cooper will last is hard to estimate.
At present there seems to be no sign
of a let-up. Reputable physicians
claim it to be a fad that will die out
as soon as Cooper leaves.
In justice to him, however, it must
be said that he seems to have accom-
plished a great deal for the sick of
this city with his preparations.

nodded at Hardy. The American ad.
justed his pince-nez and raised his
rife to his shoulder. 1t was a long
shot, but he had done better in the
Adirondacks at deer. His nerves were
good and his muscles as tense as
steel. Just as he was about to press
the trigger, the chief swung his rifle
about his head, pointed at the boat
and came plunging on again. 1t was
a nor difficult matter now, as the
man was in motion. Yet he was a
splendid mark, looming big and dark
there against the bright water, with a
dash Of two Of vivid color about him,
evidently ribbons or a sash.
Hardy shot and the chief still came
on, followed by his men, shouting like
wild Indians, in their barbaric tongue.
The American shot again without
result.

cheek on his weapon and shot a third

the yellow Amur, his arms fell to his
side, and he plunged over his horses

animal whirled about and charged on
the line behind him, dragging his
riders body, which hung BY one stir
srup. The other brigands turned and
followed their leaders body to the
bank and disappeared into the dark
Manchurian woods.

extended her hand.

princess side, took her by the arm
and turned her toward the gangway,
speaking kindly but firmly to her.
"Da, da!" she replied, and left the
deck.
The first arrow was but the precur-
sor of a shower of 20 or more, the ma
jority of which either passed far over
the vessel or fell short, thus proving
that the accuracy of the first shot had
been largely the result of a lucky
guess.
One Of the arrows stuck fast in the
rail and a sailor broke it off by strik-
ing it with a long pole. The rifle vol
ley of which it was the precursor did
no damage, as most of the Russians
were either lying on their stomachs,
or were crouching behind the impro-
vised bulwarks. There were evidently
about 80 Chinese shooting arrows, ac-
c%ompanied by from six to ten rifle
men. II they were trying to set fire to
the boat, or merely to light it up so
that they might pot at its occupants
from the safety of the darkness, it
o o became evident that their scheme
was not destined to prove highly sue
cessful. The men, for one thing,
made themselves plainly visible for
an instant or so while they were
scratching their matches and applying
the burning arrows to the string.
They kept shooting now, sporadical-
ly. First here and there and then in
some other spot a red, fitful light
would CLEAN for an instant, dyeing
a patch in the river blood-red by it's
radiance, and revealing a wild, SAY
age-looking Monaghan, armed with
great bow and culver, who ficked into
view for a moment and as soon was
swallowed up again by darkness.
Hardy, not understanding the gem
erals orders, reasoned that he would
be pardoned for acting under his own.
Ii he were going wrong, he reflected,
1t would be easy to stop him. He
therefore held his rifle ready for ac-
ton, as a MAJ who is expecting a
covey Of quail to rise, and stood
watching the water, alert, tense, keen
as a cat about to spring. His chance
came soon, when one of those lights
flashed nearly in the direction of his
gaze and not far away. He threw

as well as the lives of all on board,
depended on their alertness. The
American also listened and watched,
straining his eyes to see if, here and
there in the darkness, darker forms
could be seen of the foe stealthily ap-
preaching.
Hardy had not been standing on the
deck more than 20 minutes, when he
felt a hand laid lightly upon his arm.

ing by his side, but he knew, with.
out looking around, that this was the
princess.
1--WE must not speak loud" she
whispered, "the general has com.
manded absolute silence" He could
feel her warm breath on his cheek and
her hair brushed his brow. II came
to say that you must not mind my
cousin. l saw at a glance that he
does not like you, and l think l under
stand the reason"
What possible reason could he
have for not liking me?" asked Hardy.
Il assure you l never did him any in
territorial harm"
He is very brave, is my poor cous
in, and he is furious that it was you
and not he who saved my life from
the ~brigands. Bear with him, I beg
of you. He will come to his senses
in a day or two and will himself thank
you"
For your sake" whispered Hardy,
Il will endure anything from him, at
least until we have rescued you from
this danger"
A small hand crept down his arm,
found his hand, and pressed it.
"Merci, mon anil" whispered the
princess.
AT that moment a splash was heard
by the side of the boat.
60 below" said Hardy in a voice
of command-the voice that a real
woman likes to hear sometimes from
a real man; and he stepped lightly to
the spot. He could see nothing, could
hear nothing more, but he found the
general standing at the place, which
was on the downstream side, gazing
into the water. For a moment Hardy
had confidently expected to see a
throng of Chinese climbing up the

Horseshoe Competition,

In a thickly populated district OF
Burnley, England, the changing Of the
anvil late at night caused the police
men on the beat to call at a black
smith shop. He found a competition
in progress between two smiths as to
which could make II pairs Of horse
shoes in the shortest time. Each
mar was allowed an assistant as
striker. The contest was for a wager.
and each contestant had his hackers,
there being nearly a hundred specta-
tors, It was not until one o'clock in
the morning that the competition was
over, the winner having accomplished
the feat in two hours and a quarter,
and his rival In two hours and a half.

Frederick Hardy. a fashionable Boston
society man, lost his wealth, was Tilted
by a girl and sent by a friend to take
charge of an American Trading Company
store in Russia. On his journey through
Japan he met Stapleton Neville, sup
posedly an Englishman. They agreed to
go together to Russia. Because of sus-
picious circumstances they were several
times molested by the Japanese. Hardy
was arrested and found upon his person
were papers showing maps of Jap forts.
Hardy was proven guiltless. On a train
he met Aisome Sane, daughter of a Jap
merchant. In Neville's shoes Jap found
pictures Of forts, proving him to be a
Russian spy. Hardy departed for Rus
STA on a steamer, which was wrecked
shortly afterward. He was rescued by
a Russian steamer. On reaching Vladi-
vostok he was well treated. He started
for Siberia, meeting Princess Romanovna
on the train. Hardy boarded a vessel for
Anur. Hardy showed the princess his
expertness as a rifle shot. The steamer
was stranded. The princess and her
maid were attacked by Chinese. Hardy
saved their lives. The princess banked

the gun to his shoulder and fired. He
could not see the sights, but he could
make out the object plainly, and he
knew he should not go far wrong. He
missed, for the Chinese, standing
about waist-deep in the water, fitted
the arrow to the string and discharged
it. The shot rang out loud and clear.
1t seemed to Hardy that he had never
heard a rifle make such a loud report
before. The general exclaimed:
Monsieur Hardy, ah!" and made no
further comment, so the American
continued his shooting-once, twice,
three times. Meanwhile the attacking
party seemed to be approaching a lit
tie nearer, and they succeeded in lodg-
ing several of their burning missiles
in the woodwork Of the boat; one ar
row In the rail, two in the side of the
wheelhouse, and one in the hull. These
were broken off almost as soon as
they stuck and did no damage, for,
strange to say, the Chinese them
selves had ceased firing their rifles.
And now Hardy had the mex
pressible Joy Of killing one Of the
attacking party, who fell backward
into the water with his blazing arrow
in his hand.
I'm getting the knack o. IT, he
muttered; II shall be able to do 1t
more frequently now. Perhaps J.,
alone, can stop them
A moment later he heard sudden
shouting, the sound Of running feet,
snarls Of rage and the splash Or heavy
bodies falling into the water. A party
,of chinese. that had crept down from
