PULLMAN Citizen
DIES IN CALIFORNIA
W. S. Pritchard, G. A. II. Veteran,
Succumbed to Acute Indigestion
Was Pullman Pioneer

Pullman was shocked last Friday
morning upon the receipt Of tele-
gram from Orange, California, an
nouncing the sudden death OF w, s.
Pritchard, pioneer OF this COM
munity. Mr.. Pritchard left Pullman
with his wife October -, expecting
to spend the winter with their daugh-

Plitchard's brother, and while there
Mr.. Pritchard was stricken. His
sons, Tom and Walter, left Pullman
Immediately upon receipt of the tel
egram and the funeral services were
held upon their arrival in California.
Mr.. Pritchard was IS years of age
and a veteran of the Civil war. He
was an active worker in the local
G.. A. r. post He had resided in and
near Pullman for many years and
held the respect of the entire COM
munity. Just recently he disposed
of his residence property on College
hill but still held extensive farm
interests in this vicinity. He is sur
vived by his widow, two sons, Tom
and Walter, of Pullman, and one

BIG SIX" To DIG UP
FOR c. OF c. BANQUET
Will Contribute $40 Each, Chamber

in Hands of Entertainment
Committee

Plans for the chamber of COM
merce banquet to be served in the
near future in honor OF the 100 new
members are we'll under way and a
menu fit for the kings is promised
by the Big Six losers in the re-
cent membership contest and spon-
sors for the big feed The question
of the eXtensiveness Of the menu, the
time, and other details of the ban
quet were discussed at length at the
chamber meeting Tuesday and many
motions, amendments and substitute
motions were offered. The prevail
inf motion, however, was to the eff
feet that the Big Six" pay $40 each
toward the feed, the balance to come
from the chamber eXchequer, and all
details of the banquet to be in
charge Of the entertainment COM
mittee.
Much fun was created by the dis

a joking spirit, resorting to many
subterfuges in an effort to squash
the decision of the chair the week
previous, which declared them the
losers in the contest. AS spokesman
for the Big Six F. E. Sanger pre-
sented phony proxies from 100 al
legged and fictitious applicants for
membership presented by the KLEIN
gard committee, claiming that these
gave the big Six" the majority vote.
The proxies were declared Illegal,
however, when it was found that the
required revenue stamps were not
properly affixed.
Mr.. Klemgard read letter pur-
porting to come from Prohibition
Watson, in which he was congratu-
lated for his victory over the "nefar-
ious Big Six, ;" the members of which
were referred to as instruments of
the devil"
Finally, however, the spirit of jest
was set aside and the Big Six"
magnanimously acknowledged their
defeat and stated their desire to
carry out their part of the contract.
The motion mentioned above carried
and nothing now remains but to set
the date for the banquet. Peace and
contentment again prevail in the
chamber of commerce.

Case Settled Out of Court When

Two INSCRIPTIONS college stu

an irate farmer and his trusty shot

chapter of the history of the esca-

written this week, and it is not i'm
probable that the lesson taught in
this chapter may prove the conclu-
sion of the disturbing if interesting
record. II this is the case the climax
is fitting one, and is worthy of re-
production on the movie screen. If
screened, the scenario would run
something like this:
Time-Sunday evening, October
"a
Place-Farm of Walter Savage,
northeast of town.
Heroes-Walter Savage and
Cuvier Ehlen.
Victim-Mrs. Walter Savage.
Villains-Two college students,
members of a prominent campus fra
ternity and one senior in college.
Plot-The entire plot is based
Oh a midnight feed planned by a
number of college students. The
students hold a pow WOW and decide
that nothing less delicious than
turkey is fit to hold the place of
honor on the menu for the big mid
night banquet. Two of the more
courageous of the band are at once
dispatched to secure the turkeys, by
means fair or foul. (Not fowl

WHEAT FLUCTUATES
ON LOCAL MARKET
Variation of Fifteen Cents in Quota
tions of Past Understanding
Wheat May BE All Saved

A variation of 5 cents in wheat
quotations during the past six days
has featured the local market. On
Thursday of last week the highest
price offered for red wheat was
$1.65 the bushel, this figure mark
ing the low point Of the season. Fri
day and Saturday slight increases
reached in the siX-day period closing
yesterday being $3.50 for red wheat.
Yesterdays quotation was five cents
under this figure, $1.75 being Of
fered for red wheat and SLIT for
white, gain of 10 cents during the
week Oats and barley are quoted
nominally at $2.10 the hundred
weight
That the unsettled and declining
market of the past five weeks has
been but a repetition of the history
of the grain markets on every presi-
dental year for a long time is the
claim OF local grain buyers, some of
whom look for d stronger market
following the election of next Tues
day, regardless of the results.
There is at the present time no
export demand for American wheat,
although Canada is enjoying a thirty
ing export trade in cereals. The
mills have been running at minimum
capacity on account of the dearth
OF orders for flour. 1t is pointed
out that while at this time last year
practically every farmer was buying
flour in large quantities and every
city householder buying as much as
he could store, the flour consumers
are now buying in small quantities.
These conditions, it is claimed, have
q depressing effect on the markets.
Some of the large FIGURING mills
have declared their intention OF
shutting down until conditions are
more settled.
Excellent weather prevailed early
this week and every indication now
points to the probability that the
1000 acres of grain still standing
last week will all be threshed. This
wheat is not so badly damaged as at
first thought, and the loss to the
farmers will not be serious. The
wheat that was lodged has sprouted,
but that which stood up against the
heavy rains is in excellent marketing
condition. The dockage on the grain
now being threshed will range from
six to Is cents, according to grain
men.
