Cloae Profit,

Dan Fishell. manager Of the Princess
theater. tells Of an incident that hap
pened when he was In charge Of the
Garrick. He says it was during a run
OF a popular play and a little man
down in the front row would jump up
every little while and stutter:
Gee, b-b-butt t-t-that's g-g-g-great."
An usher warned him several times
without avail until Fishell and the au-
dience grew tired Of the interruption.
Fishell finally went to the box Office.

little man In the aisle, who at that
moment was bubbling over with en-
thusiasm.

with the admission money-"here is
the price Of your ticket. Now you'll
have to get OUT
"D-d-d-do I have tito g-g-g-go:"

grimly.
"Well. It's j-j-j-just as WE'LL" replied
the man as they reached the door.

CABBAGE FAMINE
RELIEVED TO-DAY
Carload Arrives Here and
the Lovers of Kraut Are
Happy Once More.

Give me this one" Let me have
that one. mister" "Oh, I don't want
this head. I am going to wait for a
bigger one" Gee, but l bet mother
will be pleased with these heads. and
guess that kraut will be on the table
each meal"
These and numerous other express
sions were made on Saturday morn
ing by a small sized. but excited crowd
the cabbage shortage, practically
amounting to a famine, was nearing
an end The crowd was assembled
at the north end freight depot Of the
G. & o. of Indiana railroad, but was
disappointed. as a commission firm
bought the entire car load.
While perhaps only true blue" Ger
mans were familiar with the fact that
the available supply OF cabbage was
almost entirely exhausted and grocers
had reached the point where they
we're willing to to pay double the or.
binary price in order to replenish
their stock nevertheless this condition
had existed for the past week. 1t was
due primarily to a carload shipment
being held up on the railroad tracks
On Saturday morning Constable
Ben Crump offered the consignment
for sale. There were several commits.
sion men present and bidding live.
ly. because they are certain Of sales at
good profits. About eleven days ago
an Italian commission firm of the city
refused to accept the consignment be
cause the heads were too large. 1t ID
said that the heads were SO large and
perfect they would make fine speci
mems for display. but were not what
grocers here wanted.
The Arm which made the consign
ment Is located in sHomer. New York
and rather than pay freight back to
New York. they offered the cabbage to
a local dealer. Another commission
firm learned of this and as the New
York Arm was indebted to 1t in the
sum OF Sos. the local company had the
car load attached by proceedings in
the justice Of the peace court. Con
stable Ben Crump was ordered to
sell the consignment in its entirey
For this reason many an urchin and in
fact several older cabbage seekers
were keenly disappointed-but the
public will be relieved. the cabbage
shortage is over.

Women for Jury Service

An act of the recent legislature of the
state of Washington makes it manda-
tory on county clerks to place upon the
jury record the names of all ladies who
are eligible to serve as jurors.
Earl K. Parks, county clerk of Pend
Oreille, county, has decided that all
ladies between the ages of 81 and go
years of age, who are owners of separate
property. or whose husbands pay taxes
on community property, are taxpayers.
ANY lady whose name is drawn on the
regular venire NAV be excused upon
written request. Otherwise it will be
absolutely necessary for any lady who
desires to be excused from jury duty to
advise the officer serving the summons
that she claims exemption under the
statute. If she fails to advise the officer
serving the summons she must notify
the county clerk to the effect that she
will claim statutory exemption.
Mr.. Parks is now making up the jury
list, which has been copied from the
Stevens county list, and in addition is
placing on the list the names of num-
Der of ladies'.
The first jury Will likely be drawn for
a term of court in October.
