CONVICTED ON
GRAND LARCENY
Colored Men Face Sentence
for Semon Robbery-aTe
Transferred to Yakima

The four negroes who relieved Sc
mons of a couple dozen suits OF
clothes, a number Of overcoats and
bathing suits and around forty silk
shirts, were recently tried in the
Benton county court at Prosser. The
trial was concluded Saturday and the
prisoners taken back to the Yakima
county jail by Sheriff L. D. Luce and
deputies Walter Purdin and Wes Gano
who were all witnesses at the trial.
The men now are again facing PEN
itentiary terms. Logan Slaughter, Ce-
Gil Munson and Charles Brown are
to serve terms from 8 to fifteen
wears and Joe Berry a term OF one to
fifteen years. These sentences are the
result of the jury verdict OF the Ben
ton county court. Berry was the only
one Of the four convicted that was
permitted by his attorney to testify
| in the trial. The jurors asked lien
iency in his behalf because OF his
former good reputation. The case wa'

MANY FAMILIES
RECEIVED HELP
Packages of Comfort and
Relief Have Reached Six
teen Homes in Vicinity

Packages containing every neces-
sity for the families in need are
packed as soon as the names get to
the committee and are forwarded out
to them. Sixteen families have been
reached in this manner.
The Christmas package committee
which represents nearly every order
i'm town and every group, reports
that the work is being carried on in
fine shape. That is to say, they have
taken care of the needs Of those peo-
pie whose names they have been able
to get and are still looking for the
names and needs of other families
that are not known to them.
The committee has not worked
without cooperation. Every merch.
ant in this city has given very de-
cided discount to the goods bought
for the use of the committee in pack
ing boxes of relief. In some instance,
they have even given things that arr
needed. The Tum-A-Lum Lumber
company and the John Dover Lum
ber company have given two tons o
coal apiece. Money, flour, groceries
and clothing are at the disposal d
the committee. The biggest obstacl'
that they have to overcome is tn
finding of the names of persons AM
families in need.
The committee reports that in near
ly every home that has been visitea
there are men that have no work
men that have been let out Of ther
usual work and are unable to get an
kind of labor. If there be any od
work, around your home or if yo
hear of any place where man coul
receive any kind of work, it is urge
that you let it be known to the com
mittee so that they may help thos
men to get work.
| The members interested in tn
work say that the good done this yea
has been accomplished with less cos
with more of the real spirit and wit
as much thoroness as that of an
previous year.

MORE TURKEYS
GO TO MARKET
Upwards of 25OOO Pounds
Poultry Shipped as the
Season Closes

Up to this time there has been but
very few that have raised turkeys
commercially. It has been the custom
around this part of the country to
just raise few for little side mon-
ey and to eat up the scraps around
the farm. The returns from this
years birds though have made many
farmers realize that poultry is not
a side issue but that it is really a
front rank business. Many of the
farmers have voiced the intention
that they will go into the poultry
raising business on a considerably
larger scale in future seasons.
Some of the things that have made
the farmers and the dealers feel that
the poultry business, and especially
the turkey business is a leading one,
is the demand for the birds and the
Encouragement that foreign markets
give the raisers from this vicinity.
About a week ago the Columbia
Valley Produce company shipped q
car of turkeys in one shipment. They
also shipped many other birds by
express and received top prices fol
all of them.
Now comes the report that Price
and Lincoln shipped over 25,OOt
pounds of poultry this season
with more yet to ship. Price and Lin
coins has shipped so far, 11,2Ss
pounds of turkeys, 420 pounds oi
geese, and 1880 pounds Of chick
ems. The turkeys and the geese were
shipped dressed and packed in an at
tractive package while the chickens
were shipped alive.
| In addition to the poultry alread!
placed by this company, they hav'
of their own, on the Schneider an.
Broughman place about 300 more fin
birds that they were unable to ge
ready in time to take place in tn
first shipments. These will be dresse'
and shipped next week. Outside OF

try shipping for this season.

GRASS MEETING POSTPONED

The meeting of the special commit
tee to decide what kind of crate the
grass is to be packed in for the COM
ing year and for years to follow, did
not take place as per the announce
ment in this paper last week.
Owing to the cold weather and to
the distance the different members
had to travel to attend the meeting,
it was considered poor policy to hold
the date as was planned.
In accordance with the committee
and with Lee Lampson, the meeting
will be held next Saturday and the
matter at hand will be cleared up al
once.

Weather Conditions Prevent Hold

Zero weather is not the best time
in the world to have an auction sale.
It's too cold for the auctioneer to
holler loud enough to stimulate the
correct amount of interest and it is
too cold for the listeners to be stim-
ulated.
1t is for that reason that the auc-
ton sale that was to be held next
Saturday per the usual schedule will
be postponed until the first Saturday
in February. At this time it is hoped
that the weather will permit proceed.

Committee Chosen

One of the most interesting Com
mercial club meetings Of the year was
held last Monday. Members seemed
to realize that is was their last oppor-
tunity to have real meeting IN 1924
for there was fine attendance and
much lingering business was brought
to close and some new problems
taken up to be completed during the
coming year.
Mr.. Bishop was with the club again
last meeting and answered questions
put to him by the growers. The meet
ing was opened to discussion on the
heaters. Heater talks were giver
by different growers telling of thei,
experiences with the particular kind
of heater that they are at the pres.
ent time using.
The matter concerning the fair as

HOVER SCHOOL
Building, Furniture and
Fixtures are Burned to
Ashes by Intense Fire

Probably the most disastrous and
discouraging fire that Hover ever
witnessed burned the recently COM
pleted high and grade school building
to the ground last Saturday night.
The property is reported to be worth
in the neighborhood of $4,000.
1t is not known how long the fire
had been in progress before it was
noticed at about 9:30 o'clock Satur-
day evening. At that time the flame
seemed to be most intense at the
position of the flue. The cause of the
fire is possibly a defective flue.
1t was impossible for the Hover
fire department to get any kind OF
control over the flames. When noti-
fication of the disaster reached here
our fire truck and the services OF
our firemen were offered. Realizing
that fire truck could be Of no use
in fighting the flames because of the
lack of water mains and the fact thai
no open water was accessible, the 10.

The building, as it was built only
school year ago, had very little de-

amounted to $21 800.
The equipment included a printing
press, a number of typewriters, ant
a complete library containing severa
hundred dollars worth of new book
which had only been in use for a few
