A New York man recently bought
a house at North Yakima for a home,
and found to his delight, that a
swarm of bees had made their hives
in its walls. While fruit and chick
ems were mentioned in the bill OF
sale. and he had purchased horse,
he preferred to let somebody else
milk the COW. He did want hive OF
bees, but there were none in town.
When the carpenters tore off some OF
the siding for repairs. 10 and behold.
. swarm of the little hustlers was
found, which were scraped into a
hive and set to work in their own
habitati0n to earn subsistence for
their owner as we'll as themselves.
This living in houses is said to be an
old trick OF Yakima bees.

AND now the auto is a menace
from o new source of danger. Four
of the State Governors at Louisville,
Monday, to fix the time and place for
conference of State Executives in
November, had two narrow escapes
from being struck by lightning while
proceeding by automobile from Yer.
sailles to Frankfort. Once the cur
rent struck the rails of an interur-
ban line by the roadside and sent a
shower of sparks over the machine.
Again the lightning struck in the
road 20 feet ahead of the auto. The
Governors in the car were Wilson oil
Kentucky. Hadley OF Missouri, Ansel
of South Carolina and Sloan of Ari.
IONA. Madames Wilson and Hadley
were also in the auto. Just who the
bolts of Jove were intended for is q
matter of conjecture.

MORE ATTRITIoN OF HARD TINES
SUspECTED.-J. H. Pruff, of North
Yakima, is under charge uf having
destroyed his own property by fire
to secure the insurance amounting to
$500. The Yakima Superior Court
gave judgment for the amount, but
the Supreme Court over-ruled this
decision and ordered q new trial.
The Supreme Court holds that evil
dence tending to show that the prop
erty had been wilfully destroyed,
when the rejected evidence showed
that part of the contents had been
saturated with kerosene, and the fire
originated during absence of the
owner were inculpating circum-
stances worthy of consideration,
which has seemed to be the case
generally when nice little rake-off
is demanded from the insurance
companies.

FORMER PRESIDENT SAYS PRES

Roosevelt Says If His County Desires
He Will Go to the State Republi-

County Chairman.

New York, n. Y, Aug. 23.-'I am
very much pleased with Mr. Taft's
statement. 1t makes the situation
perfectly clear. If Nassau county

vention, | shall go | regard the is
sue as clear cut and as far as |
am concerned there will be no COM

today by former President Roosevelt,
following a short conference with
County Chairman Griscom.
In letter given out by Lloyd C.
Griscom yesterday afternoon, Presi-
dent Taft makes it plain how the
misunderstanding between Taft and
Roosevelt arose. Taft explained that
he never took any part in a com
mttee cabal to defeat Colonel Roose-
welt for temporary chairman for the
coming republican state convention.
On the contrary, he explicitly de-
plored the result of the committee
meeting which chose Vice President
Sherman; he rebukes the party lead
ers who have permitted TO go abroad
mcontradicted that the president OF
the United States was behind the
fractional preferences; he insists that
at every opportunity he advised the

Roosevelt and he explains that he

BAPTIST MINISTER
BECOMES OEMENTEO
HAS MANIA FOR MARRYING
PRETTY WOMEN AND PASSING
FORGED CHECKS.

Sheriff Akers received some in
formation today concerning a man
by the name of Pippen who visited
this town about two weeks ago and
succeeded in defrauding J. A. Mad
den out of $1S.75 by giving him a
worthless check. Pippen is now IN
Louisiana jail. At one time he
was a merchant in Texas and failed
for $27 900. He was a Baptist min
lister for fourteen years and was
pastor of church at Forest City,
Ark. At this place his health failed
him and he began going from one re-
sort to another in hopes of recov-
ering his health. In his confession
he said that he had tried to live
right. but his health failed him and
that he did not remember much
that had happened in the last wo
years. He married a second time
in Arkansas and at that time had
a living wife. Following the second
marriage he took another woman TO
wife and when placed in jail he had
three living wives. He was also a
bad check fiend and operated in
many portions of Arkansas, Louisi-
ana and Texas.
He will probably not be brought
here for trial. as he has so many
charges against him in other places.

Broom corn has never been grown to
any extent here but it has been tried

and the yield has aiways been very
satisfactory. p. L. Martin planted the
biggest crop this year that the county
has ever grown and he is pleased with
the amount of production. 1t is of suf-
ficient length to be classed with the
best broom corn and the yield per
acre will amount to something like
$50. The seed is now being thrashed
from the heads and the straw is being
