With an oteusloiiul glimpse of u very ahapely limb covered with pale pink tights, and peeping out at them from between the silt In a dlrectolre gown, the business men of Seattle were given a genuine surpi when they appeared at the Cotninerilul club rooms In Walla Walla Wednexduy night for the reception that was ten dered them by the business men , of Walla Walla. But their surprise was even more genuine when the beauti ful young lady wearing the slashed nklrl. approached them, one after the other, and pinned upon the lapel of their coau a small blue ribbon. Her miMNlim lumpieie, the young lady withdrew from mthe room, and It was not until after the last fleeting gllmpsa of the young lady was ob tained that the visitors took occasion to read the wording upon tho badges. Until that moment their eyes had been busy looking elsewhere. On the badges was the Inscrlptloa, "M'alla Walla County Fair. October 12 to 17. Boost for It with the Seat tle Spirit' A long hearty laugh went up when the visitors from Seattle realized what a neat little advertising scheme had been worked upon them, but from the. manner In which they enjoyed it, they certainly would have made no objections to a repetition. , And the identity of the young lady? That Is the all absorbing question In Walla Walla at present Peculiar as It may seem, everybody was so in terested In the gown that was worn, that no one paid any attention to the girl's face. True, it was heavily veil ed, but had the curiosity as to her identity have been strong at "that time, there would. have been some way of finding out Just who the young lady was. ' But those present were all In terested In something : else at that time, and the girl was allowed to es cape without her name becoming known. The only man who does know is Secretary Robert Johnson of the Fair association, but' he claims he, promised the girl, upon his honor, not to reveal her name. He says, how ever, that she Is a well known society girl of the Garden City.
