DENVER, Feb. 10.-Three years confinement in the, Colorado Peni- tentiarv at Canon City, followed by numerous severe grillings by Denver police shortly after her release from that institution, has left Eva Lewis, 24-year-old bandit queen," a physical wreck.
 Miss Lewis is a victim of aphasia, and lies pale and emaciated at the home of her mother on the outskirts of Denver.
 Despite her physical debility and complete loss of speech, the girl rc- tains much of the charm that caused Denver Criminal Court attaches four years ago to declare that she was the "prettiest woman who ever was on trial here."
 Sentenced to from five to seven years in the State Penitentiary for her activities with the famous ''Lewis-Jones bandit gang" Miss Lewis was paro1ed and came to Denver about 10 days before the sensational holdup of a Federal Re serve bank truck in front of the Denver Mint, when $2O0,OOO in cur rency was stolen and one guard fatally shot.
 Police Seek Her
 Immediately police started a sea1 ch for the pretty exconvict, ill the be- lief that she might be able to throw some light on the identity of the participants in the daring robbery.
 The former "bandit queen" was subjected to hours of questioning, and her movements were closely watched for several days. She denied all knowledge of the hold-up, declaring that it was too deliberately con- ceived for woman to take part in it. The grilling by police soon az gravated her already weakened phy- sical condition, and a few days later she suddently fell unconscious on the floor ill her mothers home.

BRITISH OFFICER GETS GERMAN MANOR
 FOR HIS BRAVERY

VANCOUVER, Feb. 10.-Major J. c. Thorne has just received word that he has been left bequest by one Herr Gartner, of Germany, by which he be- comes the owner of a manor house in Germany valued at $10,000. The gift is in the nature of a testimonial for the bravery of Major Thorne in say ing the life of the small grandson of Herr Gartner. Major Th0rne, while under guard as a prisoner of war after he had made his escape from a German prison camp, dashed in front of an on-coming train in the railway station at Leipzig, and snatched from certain death a child that had strayed onto the tracks. The child was the grandson of the deceased, whose will has thus testified to his gratitude.

SNAPPY GAMES 0FBASKETBALL
 EXCITE FANS
STANDING OF THE TEAMS

In a whirlwind game, the Finkel- last night defeated the High School five by a score of 39 to 24 The battle was waged before a crowd of over 150 people, the largest attendance at any game in the series.
 The Finkelstein & Sapiro men played like demons. They followed the ball as though their lives de- pended upon it's possession. They passed the sphere with speed and accuracy that kept the High School boys on the defensive the greater part of the game; and as for shoot ing baskets-they seemed to locate the hoop from any angle on the floor.
 But this does not mean that the school boys were not in the game, for they put up a good fight against odds. But whether it was the result of overconfidence, or just that they had an "off" night, they somehow could not hold the ball, and when they did get a try at goal they could not find the basket.
 In shot after shot by High School boy the ball would bounce on the hoop, or curl agonizingly around the wire circle, only to roll off, while the crowd let out it's bated breath in groans.
 This defeat compels the school boys to share their position at the head of the percentage column with the Railroad team, each five having won two games and lost one The Finkelstein X Sapiro quintet is raised to a middle position, with one game won and one lost, while the Elks are selves.
 This game will give an added i'm petus to the interest in the entire series. At first the Railroaders were picked as the strongest team-until they ran up against the fast High School five Then the FinkeIstein & Sapiro aggregation, previously beaten badly by the Railroaders, steps out and defeats the school boys This mixes up the dope so that even the best posted of the fans are now soft peddling their predictions and are merely awaiting eagerly the next games.
 Next Tuesday night the Finkel- stein & Sapiro team will tangle with the Elks in their first game together in the series. There is a persistent rumor that the Elks have strength ened their team since its last game, and if this is the case and they beat the store men, then the dopesters surely will get brain fever figuring it out
 The lineups of the team in last nights game were as follows

Our Daily Food Bill

The people of the United States
spend more than 100000 day for
food, or nearly $1,000, 100000 each
month. Almost one-third of this
money goes for bread, potatoes, fruit,
sugar and other flood of vegetable
nature. More thhn two-thirds is
spent for meat, fish, eggs, butter,
cheese and lard The average house
holder hands over to his grocer more
than one-fifth of his income. The
people of this country consume in a
year 100000 eggs and nearly TO-
100000 gallons of milk. However,
large part of this milk goes to
make 100000 pounds of butter,
4OO,OO0,OO0 pounds of cheese and
26O 100000 gallons of ice cream.

IT'S ALL RIGHT

But next time we wish that Rich
would get The Courier Reporter to
announce him before he comes
around for his baseball collection. An
announcement in The Courier is q
kind of a shock absorber, and while
money is always hard to part with
it is easier if we have a day or two
to think it over. Before Smith &
Brown came after the Boy Scout
money they had a write-up in the pa
per and we had our six bits all ready
for them.
Go to it, Rich, Liebee and Peterson
Hope you raised enough for your
baseball fund,
For we must have baseball team,
And they've got to train;
So if you didn't get enough

COME in AND
LOOK THESE OVER

In the headlines of our paper this
week we emphasize the fact that you
owe it to yourself to buy at least q
few things at our store and we are
listing few items and reasons why
you should buy them.
First, let us suggest that you buy
your bananas of us, because we Sc
lect nothing but the finest ripe fruit
and our selling price every Saturday
it 10 1-2c per Id.
Hams are another thing that you
owe to yourself to buy here. A ham
costs from $500 to $500 and when
you buy ham you are entitled to
the best the market affords. We
handle Swift's Premium Hams, they
are always right.
Perhaps the one thing that at
tracts as much favorable attention
as any is our bulk Citrus Powder.
The saving here is enough to pay
you to come to us, even though you
bought nothing else, Soap Chips,
Bulk Cocoa and bulk Cocoanut are
very good buys with us.
If you are raising poultry or keep
ing poultry for a side or main bust
ness, don't overlook Sperry's products
their Mash, Scratch and Chick
feed are the result of years of care
full study.
You will agree that high grade
ground Chocolate as drink is one
of the most palatable and nourishihg
drinks for the children. BY a spec
ial advertising allowance from the
factory, we are able to give you free
one-half pound can of Guitard's
ground chocolate with every pound
you buy.
Statesmen who make this territory
marvel at the fine line of domestic
and imported groceries we carry.
Our line of Cross & Blackwell's fancy
groceries is growing continually. A
salesman from one of the largest
wholesale houses on the Coast told
us last week that our stock was one
of the most complete in the Yakima
valley.
Among many reasons why you
should buy at least small amount
of your supplies here are the Sat-
urday Specials. You can always get
a bargain here Saturday, and to buy
our specials does not obligate you in
any way to spend cent with us for
other goods.
Surely none of us is so well off
at this time that we can afford to
overlook opportunities. No matter
where you trade you will find it to
your advantage to go to Price & Lin
coins occasionally.

Don't Let Him Puff Up

According to scientific investiga-
ion, the ingredients of a man, plus
water, are as follows:
Fat enough for seven bars of soap.
Iron enough for a medium sized
nail.
Lime enough to whitewash a
chicken coop.
Sugar enough to fill a shaker.
Phosphorus enough to make 1900
match tips.
Magnesium enough for dose of
magnesia.
Potassium enough to explode toy
cannon.
Sulphur enough to rid dog of
fleas.
This whole collection is worth SO
cents, and that in day when things
are higher than they used to be.
