w. Chybki, a German to set up a de-
fense and cross com plant in an ac-
tion started by +. l.. McDougal, an
attorney. McDougal was given judg-
ment for $35 which he alleged to be
due for legal services. while cross
bill for $75 against the attorney
which Chybki sought to recover was
summarily dismissed.
This is believed to be the first case
in any court in oregon wherein ar

With rivers hereabouts crowded with

Clean the carp carefully. take out as
many bones as possible, wash in vine
gar and roast on a plank When the
carp is nicely Drowned, carefully re-
move it from the plank and throw it
away. Eat the plank as it is gener-
ally considered the best to eat.
The bureau estimates that $1,000

WHAT'S THE TINE?
THE VITAL ISSUE
CONFUSION OVER ATTEMPT TO
MOVE HANDS OF CLOCK
AHEAD

Moscow was up in the air all day
today over the proposed change in time.
1t was presumed that all would set the
clocks ahead one hour. This was not
done 1t was said that some OF those
who signed the petition to change ad-
hered to the old system when the time
to change arrived. A number of the
more important institutions OF the
city went to the new time. Other i'm
portant institutions held to the old
system.
The University of Idaho adopted the
new time. The city schools adhered to
the old time until the board of educa-
tion could take action. The courty Of
ficials refused to change because, they
said, they were dealing with the whole
county. There was no concerted ac-
ton which left the matter in sad
state of confusion.
Neither Mayor Gibson nor any other
official has power, it seems, to take
official action, and just what the final
outcome is il is difficult at this time
to say. Some of those who changed
declare they Will not change back.
Others declare they Will not make the
change at all, but will adhere to the
old way of marking time.

Restaurant Men Skip in the Middle of
the Night Without FOrmality
of Paying Bills

James Girkas, Gust Sideris and one
other partner, Greek also, men who
had been running the Electric Cafe
since last December, took French
leave" of Moscow at late hour Sun
day night leaving unsettled accounts
wherever they could get credit.

a good business and conducted a good
cafe. They kept the place open until
1920 Sunday night, collected in all
the money possible, hired an automo-
bile driver to take them to Colfax
and disappeared. Just how much their
creditors will suffer will not be
known for some days.

ing in which the Electric is located,

ed over to the trio when they took
charge and practically two months
