HANDCUFFED MAN
CAUSES STIR AS
HE GOES WALKING
FELLOW ARRESTED HERE SOME
TIME AGO is NOW HELD
AT WALLA WALI4A.

WALLA WALLA, Wash. March
2.-When Sabina Nadota or Robeno
Battlste. the "handcuff" prisoner at
the county Jail. started out for a
walk Saturday afternoon, he did not
imagine his action would arouse the
officials OF county and nation. But
that Is just what happened. and be-
fore Nadota had been gone half an
hour Deputy Sheriff Sam II. Bryan
ard immigration Inspector E. L.
Wells were hot on the trail in a Ford
touring car. They heard the man
had been seen north OF town. and
wended their way thither, though
without catching a glimpse OF the
man. who once before had made his
getaway and had given the sheriffs
crew some real work TO retake him.
1t was while Bryan and Wells
were hiking about the suburbs that
Nadota was seen leisurely walking
about Main street, and Constable
George Thompson escorted him to
the county Jail, where he looked
wonderment and surprise on learn
ing that his absence had caused
alarm. Nadota merely had gone for
a stroll. and. after being allowed the
liberty of the court yard, felt there
would be no harm in extending the
scope of his wanderings. But he
was on his way back when the con-
stable located him.
Nadota's hands are irnproyIn1 ran
idly and It is expected he will be
ready for release within a short time.
He appears wholly at home in the
county Jail and tells callers that he
has no desire to leave.
But hereafter he will be required
to inform jail officials when he wants
to take an extensive stroll.

Proctor decided to do a little cowboy
ing of his own. He has practiced will
the lasso some and. spurring his mare
alongside the last OF the steers, sem
the running moose squarely over the
animals horns. The rope was short
however, and the steer pulled 1t away
from the rider. Runyan also lost
rope on II but Ridings put third
over the wide-spreading horns and
succeeded in running the steer into a
corral after it had torn down a few
fences.
In the corral the big boss OF the
range gave battle like a Mexican bull
and 1t required some skillful dodging
by man and horse to escape the sharp
horns. Finally the animal lunged so
hard against Riding's lariat that 1t
broke both at the horns and at the
saddle. Across the fields and through
fences the steer made its way. pur-
suing one innocent farmer and driv-
ing another up a tree after a hair
breath escape. Ridings and Proctor
gave pursuit, the former in the lead.
In crossing a field that had been irri-
gated, Riding's pony sank into the
mire and turned a flipflop, landing
the elongated Bill prone in the mud.
The steer. seeing the predicament'
turned and charged, but, before he
reached the PROSTATE horse and man
he too became mired down to his
belly and helpless.
Mr.. Proctor endeavored to ap-
proach gingerly but his own mount
suddenly sank in the mud and. In
for a footing. shook his
rider off The sculptor settled into
the mud to his waist before he could
extrlcate himself and was almost
underfoot by his mare.
Eventually the men pulled them
selves and horses out and likewise the
steer after he had been tied securly.
Then 1t was that an S. o. S. call was
put in for the Penland auto truck,
for the three men had no desire to
make the attempt to drive the brutes
to town. Thus it was that the steers
came to the slaughter pens under
power other than their own.

COUNTY WILL RECEIVE
ALL Of GAME FINES
UNDER THE NEW LAW
5 PER CENT OF SALE OF IL.
CENSES WILL ALSO BE
RETAINED.
While Law Creating New Game Conn.,
mission Is Not Entirely Satisfactory
10 Majority OF Sportsmen, IL Is SUI
perior TO the Schubel BiIl-Fea-
lures OF the New Law.

After the new game laws go into
effect about the first OF June the
county will receive all instead OF
only half OF the fines collected for
violations OF the laws and Il will all
so retain five per cent OF all the
money collected from the sale Of
hunting and fishing licenses. Had
these two provisions been in effect
during the year 1914. the county
would have received $3.50 from fines
instead OF $425. 1t would also have
retained s2S5.55 as its share OF the
license money.
While the law creating the new
game commission is not altogether
satisfactory to a majority OF the To-
cal sportsmen they say II Is far
ahead OF the Schubel bill, against
which they made so hard a fight
Some OF them are sorry. however,
that the Schubel bill was not enacted
into law as 1t was so obnoxious they
believe the referendum could have
been successfully invoked against II
and the present system maintained
Under the present. law no more
than two of the four members Of
the board appointed by the governor
can be members Of the same political
party The new bill simply provides
that not all the four shall be mem
bers of the same party. 1t is gen.
orally conceded that three Of the ap-
pointees will be republicans and one
a democrat. With a republican gov
ernor as chairman and three repub-
licans and one democrat on the board
it will take something more than an
optimist to classify the new board
as non-political and non-partisan.
An interesting feature Of the new
bill Is also the provision creating
three offices at an annual salary ex-
pense of s2400 for each instead OF
two offices at s21O0 each. It is In
teresting in view of the fact that the
alleged economy legislature" was
pledged, bound and obligated to
program calling for a reduction OF
offices. salaries and commissions. 1t
will also be remembered that the
principal criticism of the present
was that it was extrava-
CANT in its expenditure Of the sports
mems money.

BILL RIDINGS'
FACE Is PUT
INTO STATUARY
BIG COWBOY SERVES AS MODEL
FOR SCULPTOR-ADVEN-
TURE WITH STEERS.

bill" Ridings' fame is now assur-
ed. He has won considerable distinc-
ton along various lines in his day and
has a number OF newspaper clippings
to testify that he has enjoyed note
and prominence In his own little
world. but not until lately has he been
able to point to that final and abso-
lutte token OF greatness, to wit. his
own face preserved in dull, cold stone
for future generations to look upon.
Yes, Bips face has been put into
statuary and It has been the work OF
no common mud dauber either. The
rugged lines Of the cowboys features
were put in the clay by the fingers OF
none other than A. Phimister Proctor,
one of the most noted Of American
sculptors who is just now pursuing MS
art in this city. Mr.. Proctor wasn't
so much interested in preserving
Bills face because Of his greatness as
man as because of his "typicalness'
as a cowboy. However that may be,
the face has been finished and will

iginal to admire and worship.
Mr.. Proctor has just finished his
model of Riding's head and bust and
it is a beautiful piece OF workman
ship. 1t is easy to recognize in it the
big Roundup wrangler and horseman
but 1t is more than bust of Bill Rid
ings The sculptor has made it his
conception OF the typical cowboy and
the wonderful detail with which he
has worked out his idea indicates that
he made a students study not only of
his model but of the class of citizens
which his model represented. When
II is cast in the bronze, Mr.. Proctor
as well as Rulings may well gaze upon
It with pride.
For some weeks Rulings has been
serving as model for the sculptor and
just now is engaged in managing the
buckskin cayuse which Mr.. Proctor
is using as a model for another piece
This same cayuse figured very promi-
nently last week in the capture Of the
three Roundup steers on the Charles
Manning place as did Messrs Proctor
and Ridings. In fact all three had
thrilling experience that ended with
all stuck In the mud.
Having been directed to bring the
steers in to market because they were
too wild and big for future exhibition
work, Ridings asked the sculptor's
permission 20 ride the buckskin Gull
tan. Mr.. Proctor was very 10th to let
the animal go for It's loss would mean
that the work he had put on his model
would go for naught. However, he
finally gave consent and decided TO ac-
company Rldings and his companion
cowboy, c. e. Runyan.
The three rode TO the Manning
ranch and soon cut out the three
steers from the herd. In fact they
didn't have to cut them out for Of
sight OF the horsemen, the steers seq
regated themselves and prepared for
battle. BIZ and his faithful lariai

DRINK HOT TEA
FOR A BAD COLD

Get a small package Of Hamburg
Breast Tea, or as the German folks
call it, Hamburger Brust Thee" at any
pharmacy. Take a tablespoonful of the
tea, put cup Of boiling water upon
it, pour through a sieve and drink n
teacup full at any time during the
day or before retiring. 1t is the most
effective way to break a cold and cure
grip, as it opens the pores Of the skin,
relieving congestion. Also loosens the
bowels, thus driving a cold from the
system.
Try it the next time you suffer from
cold or the grip. II is inexpensive
and entirely vegetable, therefore safe
and harmless.
