Makes Your Bath
Twice as Refreshing
NEW KIND OF SHOWER. FITS
ANY BATH TUB. NEEDS NO
CURTAIN. DONT HAVE
TO DRENCH YOUR
HEAD.
Try It 10 Days Free
You can try this new kind of show
er ten days free right on your own
bath tub without having to send a
single cent in advance.
You'll find it far more refreshing
than a tub bath, whether you take it
hot, cold or tepid.
Works on new principle. No clam
my curtain to spoil your enjoyment.
Can't splash out of tub.
Doing away with all need for a cur
tain and the elimination of overhead
piping and complicated parts is what
makes the price so low.
Kenney Needle Shower
Only $6.00
cshires were in La Grande arranging
for the final touches on the road race
from Elgin to La Grande and re-
'turn which is to be run on the third,
with Tracy Hollister, Earnest Vehrs
and perhaps others as local entrants.
The road which the race will be run
over is laid out as follows: Leaving
the grounds at Elgin the machines
will take the foot hill road to Sum
merville go through Summerville and
continue on past Conley's warehouse
t.i Booth lane, from t.hpw through
Island City and to the Leighton gar
age at La Grande, returning imme
diately. ' The trip measures Just an
even 25 miles each way. From Sum
merville to Conley's warehouse or
Conley's Spur the road is an even
straight stretch of hard clay and as
smooth as glass. The riders predict
that on this stretch which is some It
or 12 miles long a speed of 50 or 60
miles can be made with ease and
safety.
i
The only shower of any kind which
throws four generous needle-spray
streams.
When you stand erect no water
touches your head all strikes direct
ngainst the body from the neck down.
That makes it about twice as enjoy
able as any overhead shower. But
you can diouse your head if you wish
fcy simply bending a trifle.
A very handsome fixture. All met
al. Heavy nickel finish over brass.
Nothing to wear out or get out of or
der. Easily put up. Never in the
wiy.
Don't Send Any Money
Just order on your letterhead or
enclose business card or reference and
you'll get the shower complete and
prepaid for ten days' free enjoyment.
If you want to keep it, simply send
$6 in full payment; if not, simply re
turn the shower. Better write for the
free trial today.

creek. "Pocket gold" has always,
been, a feature of the Auburn camp
and small seams containing free gold
have often brought large sums to
their discoverers. That many are
still uncovered and awaiting the for
tunate prospector is certain, as indi
cated by the good luck reported at
intervals by those still delving in the
Auburn hills for the precious metal.
Pennsy Sportsmen Meet.
Prospector's "Find" Excites.
Baker, June 30. The appearance
here yesterday of Jim McCabe, an
Auburn prospector, with a bottle of
gold dust and nuggets worth about $60
and the story of uncovering a pocket
from which, according to his story,
he has taken about $3,000, caused
much interest and the yarn was mag
nified in the telling until the old days
were recalled and a rush to Auburn
seemed imminent. It was stated that
the amount taken from the pocket by
McCabe w$f anywhere from $100 up
$22,000, evidently increasing as tV
story was passed around.

COMPLICATIONS ARISE
STATE ORDERS.
OVER
County Clerk Wright Will Lay Matter
Before County Court.
When the county court meets to
morrow County Clerk Ed Wright will
lay before it the county scalp bounty
situation which has taken a peculiar
turn in Oregon. The secretary of
state recently sent out notices to all
county clerks saying that because the
scalp bounty fund in the state was ex
hausted, the state would no longer
pay half of the bounty money which
the county clerks issue. In Baker, and
it is said in some other counties, the
county courts have decided! to refuse
to issue warrants if the state
won't pay half. Information reaching
La Grande however is to the effect
that the state and county must con
tinue to pay bounties whether the
fund is exhausted or not
In view of the many complications
to the question, it will come up before
the county court tomorrow and will
in nil probability be settled by an at
torney general decision later on.
No More Bounties in Baker.
Baker, June 30. Xo more bounties
will be paid on wild animals in the
Stnte of Oregon after July J. This in
formation was received by County
Clerk Combs from Secretary of State
Olcott, who stated that the bounty
fund is exhausted and there is no
certainty that the next legislature will,
make an appropriation.
Following this information, th
Baker county court made an order, 1
which was filed yesterday, that Baker ,
county would not pay bounties from
county funds, therefore after July 1
no more bounties will be paid in Ba- j
ker county. j
The present bounty law was made
two years ago and the action of the
legislature was depended on to pro- '
vide appropriations. With the de- i
pletion of the appropriation created
at the last session, the revenue of a
large number of trappers and hunt-'
ers will be cut down, especially in
the counties east of the mountains
abounding in wild game, for which
bounties were offered. !
