court on charge of assault with a
deadly weapon, with intent to do great
bodily injury, on Tuesday by Probate
Judge Campbell. The girl was bound

end of town on Sunday, when the Ohlln-
ger girl is alleged to have thrown a rock
at the Castle girl, hitting her on the
back.
Judge Campbell declared that, in his
opinion, the case was one in which a
charge of assault and battery should
have been preferred, when disposition
of the case could have been made in the
lower courts, rather than have the
matter 90 up to the district court.

1Wo Women and Man
BaR Bold attempt to
Fire Grain in FieZa
Ca6af Shoots At HoySeman Following Effort to Locate Wheat
Guards By throwing Rays 81 Automobile Flash
hg1n OUey PoWed Ground

A bold attempt to burn more than
1000 bushels of wheat, belonging to
Herman Miller, was frustrated on his
ranch near Denver Friday night by a
shot fired by Leo Cabat who, with Mrs.
Miller and her daughter, Miss Rheta
Underwood, was guarding the grain.
Following the fire on the Puryear
ranch, last week, when virtually $4,000
worth of wheat and oats was DESTROYED
or damaged to such a degree as to rem

lers had guarded their grain, which had
been threshed and sacked, and piled in a
-fallowed field, short distance
from the road.
The grain, which was located at two
places in the field half-mile distant
from each other, had been guarded for
three nights during which it was I'M
molested, but on Friday night, about
9 O'Clock an automobile, with only a
spot light burning was seen to drive
along the road and stop at a point not
far from one pile of grain. The spot
light was turned on the field and fin
ally was located on the grain piles, near
which were the guards, who came with

were observed by the persons in the au-
tomobile, for Immediately the light fell
on the guards, the automobile sped
away.
About the time the automobile was
seen to depart, Mrs. Miller, her daugh-
ter, and Cabat, observed a strange-look-

MRS. BECK SENT AWAY.

Mrs. Sophia Beck, former resident
of Grangeville, who arrived here week
ago from Pullman and insisted that the
county care for her, was sent on Tues
dav to Mount Vernon, Wn., where a
daughter of Mrs. Beck resides. Upon
application for county aid, Mrs. Beck
was given an opportunity of residing at
the poor farm. This she declined, and
finally compromise was reached in her
agreement to depart for Mount Vernon,
the county paying the cost of her
journey.

mobile had halted. Although the OBJ
ject was shrouded by the darkness,
they thought it man, and Cabat fired
shot toward it. Immediately the gun
was discharged, the object moved in
such manner as to reveal a man on
horseback. The man rode away
Opinion is that the horseman and the
party in the automobile had arranged
to come from opposite directions and to
appear on the scene about the same The

was to have been used to determine
whether the grain was guarded and, if
it was learned that no guards were
present, the persons would have left the
road and set fire to the wheat, but when
it was observed by those who sought
to destroy the grain that it was being
carefully watched they abandoned their
plans.
The grain was removed from the
ranch to a warehouse this week, the
last load having ~een hauled away yes
terday.
Motive for an attempt to set fire to
the grain, it is declared, was purely to
destroy foodstuffs, intended for use of
America and her allies in the war. No
one, it is said, is under suspicion, but a
close watch is being kept of grain in
fields, elevators and warehouses, to pre-
vent recurrence of the crime on the
Puyear place.
