The E. o. Keene family returned,
Tuesday evening from a 750-mile trip
which covered many Coast points,
with Kennewick air still in their tires
and had no motor or chassis trouble,
altho they hit the sewer flume in the
mudhole at Wapato where so many
springs were broken and heads bump

the peace of mind of future motrIsts
that the obstructing drain flaInle had
been removed on Tuesday, when the

During the severe wind storm Sat-
urday night the large silo on the
Grosscup ranch blew over again for
the second time. AS was the case
when it blew down last year, the
ranch hands were just about ready to
fill it with corn and A. S. Murray
was rushed to the scene of the acct
dent to erect the silo so that the work
of filling might proceed as quickly
as possible.
Considerable loss will be suffered
by the orchardists of the district
from the high wind of Saturday, as
a great many fine apples were blown
from the trees and others were So
badly bruised that they will not pass
as first class fruit. However, the
damage generally, is not as heavy
as was anticipated.

THE POACHER
BY MILDRED WHITE

Della brought her car to a stop.
and sat up with gasp of surprise.
There before her at the bend of the
road was the original of her favorite
picture. She had not fancied, as she
often admiringly gazed at the beauti-
|, full water color of a quaint old house,
that the house could possibly be real.
More was it like an idealization of an
artist
The picture had drawn her from it's
first hanging on the walls of the art
store. Since then, it occupied the Best
wall space in Delia's own room.
She had ridden far, lost in her dis
appointed thought, far beyond the
well-kept state road into the rough
one of the outskirts. Its unevenness
had passed by unnoticed, as she won
dered for the hundredth time, why
her latest story had failed to please.
Della had counted much upon that
story. Heretofore she had been for
tunate in selling, what did this story
lack? If she might go over it again,
wholly concentrating her thoughts.
Della smiled cynically; where in the
hubub of her society home might she
find concentration? Now she knew
what had caused her failure, the con-
slant call to other things. And as If
in answer to her conclusion before her
suggestively doomed the isolated
house.
She was out of the car in bound,
a shrewd old Scotswoman coming to
open the deep set door, waited to learn
Delia's errand.

ed breathlessly. Il wonder if you might
be persuaded to take me for q few
weeks as boarder?"
The neat Scotswoman considered.
"Well now" she said, .I'n ask
Sandy
Sandy, her kindly old husband. was
quickly agreeable.
"What HARM" he asked, when we
are alone?"
So arrangements were made for
Della to come upon the following day.
Installed In her hammock back along
the hollyhocks, the Scotswoman left
the girl with one injunction:
eff you see any trespassers," she
cautioned, whistle for Sandy. There's
been many lately, coming to fitch our
fruit or to fish in our stream. The
stream mustn't be disturbed"
"I'll whistle" Della promised, and
she left her hammock to examine the
stream.
The water color had given no prom
Use Of this stream. It went ripping
merrily on beyond the furthest trees.
It looked invitingly cool on this hot
summer day. Della was possessed OF
an unruly desire herself to bangle a
line and to fitch the fine fruit. She
sat still instead, watching a 'prize
catch" which came nearer and nearer.

tives.
Rev. H. A. Stone is attending con-
ference in Spokane this week. Al
tho urgently requested to return to
the Richland field for third year,
as pastor of the growing local church
the conference board are of the opin-
ion that it would be detrimental to
Rev. Stone to remain so long in one
community; that he should be trans
red to some other place so that he
may have an opportunity to broaden
out and grow. He will be greatly
missed here where he has endeared
him self to young and oil d
alike by his kind disposition and ac-
tive, Christian life. His successor will
be appointed by the conference at
Spokane this week.

And just as it came very near, mans
voice whispered roughly:
'Don't startle him, I'm going to
throw a line"
The man himself Immediately came
into view; his khaki trousers were
covered with mud, an old felt hat
shaded his bold, dark eyes.
Don't you darer' cried Della; she
clapped her hands to brighten the fish.
The man turned on her impatiently,
then seeing her flushed cheeks and in
dignantly glowing eyes, he smiled.
well" he began, 'what do you
mean by that"

"And yet you deliberately came to
fish" She decided to whistle for
Sandy.
"Did you intend" she added sar-
castically, ito also help yourself to
the fruit?"
"To a few of those choice plums
perhaps" the man replied. He calmly
suited the action to the word.
.What right have you to object?"
the poacher questioned, he was smil-
ing.

did so unreservedly, while the per-
plexity of his gaze gave way to frank
admiration.
Give here" he repeated.
Sandy's burly figure came crashing
through the brambles.
"Girll" he muttered, "what scare
We gave me; thought We needed help.
But If masters here"
sHello Sandy" pleasantly greeted
the man, "who may ask, is, this young
lady who informs me that my house
is her place of residence?"
Sandy flushed. "She's just bit of a
boarder," he said, "the wife and I
thought it no harm to take her in for
while sir, you not being expected
home so soon an all"
"All right" the man answered with
q brusque gesture of dismissal.
Della came close to him, raising to
his, her lovely, embarrassed face.
'You called it your house?" she
questioned.
The man bowed, his smile was
strangely reassuring.
"Tm an artist" he. explained. The
old place took my fancy and bought
1t so that I might come out sometimes
to paint. Sandy and his wife are my
faithful caretakers.
"May I tell you," Della asked. how
happened to come here? 1t is really
quite wonderful !"
And later when the two went saun-
tering up the garden path together,
the sunflowers nodding their golden
heaus at each other, seemed to smile.
