CIRCUS WAGONS CUT
CAPERS ON GRADES

[. Palmer Bros. circus attendantants
participated in mad and merry time
here Thursday night getting the heavy
wagons, loaded with tent poles and
other paraphernalia from the top of
the Columbia canyon, where the big
top was pitched, down to the lower
level of the o. w. r. & N. tracks. The
smooth surface of bithulic streets and
the slippery wheels of the giant wag-
ons are incompatible, and vehicles,
some of them freighted with roaring
lions and groaning bears, came down
the steep inclines, although both rear
wheels were locked on the grades,
sideways or endwise and great was
the CONSERVATION of the drivers.
1t wasn't a time of ease for house
holders whose places abutted on the
streets used by the circus folk in slid
ing their wagons down to the railway.
Mothers with young children slept
fearing the overturn of an
animal wagon and the escape of the ir-
ritable denizens therein imprisoned.
Due to leave here for Woodland,
Wash, at a. m. Friday. morning, the
show train did not pull out until 10.30
The folk of Woodland missed the af-
ternoon program of the circus folk.

father Of Sheriff T. f. Johnson, was
painfully bruised in a runaway acci-
dent last Thursday. Because of recent
illness and Mr.. Johnson's extreme age,
he is nearly 80, his family was alarmed
Immediately following the accident.
He rallied, however, and has recov-
cred.
Mr.. johnson had driven to a ranch
Immediately west of the city to look
after a hay harvest. He learned that
band of ponies belonging to the
circus had been placed in his pasture
near the grounds, where the tents
we're being stretched. An employe had
already demonstrated against the tres
pass, and circus attendants, in remov-
ing the animals created a stampede,
frightening Mr.. Johnson's horse. He
was hurled from his wagon in the run
away, and the horse. collding with
post, was 50 badly injured that it was
shot soon afterward.
A bill for damages was filed by Mr..
Johnson against the circus company.
This was adjusted Thursday evening
before the circus left the ball park,
where the performances were held.

Yakima Pear Market SlumpS

The feature of the Yakima fruit sit
uation during the past week was the
slump in pear prices, caused by heavy
shipments entering the eastern mar
kets. Opinions vary as to whether the
slump will be permanent Officials of
the Yakima County Horticultural I'm
ion and Alex Maxwell, Of the Selah
Fruit Growers, Inc, predict strength
ening of the pear market as soon as
the California crop is moved. The re-
suit of the slump has been to send
large quantities of pears into cold stor-
age, some portions of which have been
sold. Another effect will be to spread
shipments over longer period, lessen
ing the heavy demand for cars.

Funeral services for l1-year old Har-
old Francis Cox, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
G. w. Cox, of Mosier, were held at

PHYSICIANS PUZZLED
OVER CONSTANT TALK
EiRht Year Old Girl Battles
Doctors BY Talking for
Week Without Sleep
(BY United Press)

Waukegan, ILL.,, Feb. 12.-Physi-
clans here were puzzled today over
the case of Miriam Rubind, 8-year-old
daughter of wealthy department
store owner, who has talked constant
ly for one week. During this time
she has not slept except for two hours
Monday night. During her sleep she
continues to talk.
The girl is said to realize her cons
dition but is not worried. Her con-
[versation is rational for that of
child. She talks continuously about
dolls, doll clothes, school and dancing.
Physicians have ordered the child
to remain in bed in hope she will drop
to sleep and stop talking, but she con-
tinues to be wide awake and laughs
amusedly. Doctors say the child is
in good health but they are unable to
explain her condition.
One theory is that the talking is the
forerunner of the sleeping sickness.
