SPECTACULAR EXHIBITION The managers of the fair to be held in Walla Walla in October, are endeavoring to arrange for one of the most novel and spectacular exhibitions ever produced in this section and one which will be of particular interest to the people of Walla Walla, says the Walla Union. The exhibition referred to will consist of a fake murder in front of grandstand or some similar place, after which the supposed crimainal will attempt toescape. Harry Draper will arrive on the scene with his famous hounds and the culprit will be tracked and run down. These dogs are trained not only to trail a man but to hold him when he is found, and the performance will be made as interest ing and realistic as an actual man hunt Mr. Draper is training his dogs for this kind of an ehxibition and promises to give the crowd the worth of their money.

Phone Red 1581 SARTOES HELD OVER Clyde Santoes must appear b?fore the circuit court to a 'swer for his actions of the past week. Dur nghis tra yes.er day his bride's parents testified that he had not sought thiir permission in marry ing the girl, and their main objection is that the girl is not sixteen. The law of Oregon specifies that unless a girl is six teen or over, it is an offense to take her away from her parert.f r marriage, and it is upon this charge that the young man is held. There is no question but that they were legally married, as the county cle1 k and officiating minister both testi fied to this. The complai ting witnesses seem to have a spite against the young man and say they will fight it through. The bride, though, affirmed that sne would remain loyal to her husband no matter what happened. The bonds for the young man's appearance were placed as low as possible and were quickly taken up by frendsof the boy. who appear to be numerous. Had Clyde wa ted three months longer his troubles would have been considerably less as the girl would then have been six teen. The outcome of the matter is looked for by many who sympathize with' the boy. PROf. TILLMAN TOD. Of 0. San Jose Cal., Aug. 5 -Professor H. C.
