sailing up the Yangtse river were
about thirty Chinese soldiers of such

their rifles" writes Bartlett G. Yung
in the Worlds Work. "As evening OF
the first day came on. they crowded
around the small deck house and de-
manded Of the native agent to know
what the foreign devil was doing
here. Now, l had been cleaning and

who was white with fear, to tell these
fellows that this foreign devil be-

keep off the grass opened the door
and let off string Of about fifty shots
into the air, at the same time giving

handiest war cry I could think of at
the moment. Whether It was the in

the shots, or the Yale cheer, cannot
say, but all hands crowded to the other
end Of the launch and remained at a
respectful distance until Nanchang
was reached-to the great amusement
OF the Chinese captain and engineer,
who, however, had deemed It good pol

TOP PRICE, FOR filler LAND
Kansas Man Pays 9362.5O Per Acre
For Orchard Tract.

w. s. McCleary of Beloit, Kas.. was
a Filler visitor last week. While here
Mr.. McCleary purchased 20 acres of
two-year-old orchard land in Andy
Matson's subdivision in the west part
of town at an average price of $362.50
per acre.
This is the highest price that has
ever been paid for land in this vicinity
for an acreage of this size and DEM
onstrates that confidence eastern land
buyers have in Filler and vicinity and
that land values are steadily increas-
ing.
The transaction was handled by and
through the office of F. c. Graves
This sale closed out Mr.. Matson's s
land interests here and it was. limited
that Andy was going east to be mar
ried, but no sooner than his deal was
closed he purchased an unimproved 20
adjoining town on the southeast and
will remain here, and Judging from
the way Andy is lowering around the
lumber yards lately making figures, 1t
begins to look like he would erect a
nice bungalow on pretty piece of the
the 20 and get into the game right

LADIES WILL KILL RABBITS
GIRLS Invited the Boys to Shoot
Rabbits.

The ladies of the Civic club are ar
ranging for rabbit drive near the
Pringle ranch, Wednesday, February
4th, says the Rupert Pioneer-Record.
AS the average woman is afraid of a

failures at rabbit drive, SO they urge
the men of Rupert and vicinity to at

and the ladies will gladly claim the
bounty.
The proceeds of this drive will 20

mock street parallels the railroad
through Rupert and the committee is
planning ways and means to improve
and beautify this street, as soon as
weather permits.
Every citizen of Rupert will realize
what splendid advertisement this
boulevard beautified would be for our
town. So men, get busy next Wednes-
day Every ten rabbits slaughtered
means at least one tree for Bannock
street.
