The following news item
which appeared in a recent
' Oregon inn concerning A. 1'.
Connaway, for a number ol
years a resident of Independ
ence, but now of Vancouver,
vYah., will be of interest to
many: V. P. Gonna A-ay,
cashier of the Vancouver
National Bank, who resigned
June 1, was happily surpris
ed lust night when member"
of the banking force and
stockholders gave him a big
par y. He was presented a
largo gold he.ulod ou-ie, en
grave!, and a costly brass
and glass clock.
While Mr. and Mrs. Con
naway called on Mr. and Mrs.
W. E. Carter, members of
the surprise gathered at the
Connaway home. Miss Lill
ian Connaway then called
her father ou the telephone
and asked them to return
home. T. II. Adams, presi
dent of the bank, and Profes
sor P. Hough made the pre
sentation speeches. Mr.
Connaway expressed his
thanks.
London. Suffragettes, for the first
time. Sunday Invaded Cuthollc
churches and created scenes by at
tempting to harangue the congrega
tions. Worship was disturbed In both
Westminster cathedral und the
Church of the Oratory, Drouipton.
Father Bernard Vauglian had Just
taken his place lu the pulpit In West
minster cathedral at the evening serv
ice when a woman, well dressd and
apparently of refinement, rushed up
the steps Into another pulpit, and,
waving her arms, shouted: "In the
presence of the blessed sacrament I
protest against the forcible feeding
of women,"
A bund o militants Interrupted the
midday mass In the Church of the
Oratory by chanting: "Clod save Km-
mallun I'aukhurst und all our noble
prisoners; open the eyes of this
church and of the priests to put an
end to the torture; In the name of
the blessed Joan of Arc, hear them
In their hour of Hood."
The growing hostility on the part
of the public was shown by assaults
Sunday on several open-air meetings.
Speakers were mobbed, stands were
torn down and two men wpre saved
by the police from duckings or beat-lugs.

Fortunate Indians.
In a composition dealing with the
habits and customs of American Indi
ans, a boy deeply Impressed with their
free aud easy life wrote the following:
"The Indians had few laws, hut they
wen well violated."-New York Post,
Work.
To Biek or write Nature did not
pt-rempiorUy order thee; but to work,
she did Carlylu.
Miranda Jones was the timidest
creature 1 ever knew. Whenever there
was a sign of danger she would col
lapse. In s thunderstorm she would
go upstairs, get ou a bed and tremble
like a leaf till it was all over. If any
one talked of robbers she would listen
with wide open eyes and soon get into
a shiver. Ho much terror did she
show ut imaginary dangers that every
body said If anything really happened
the would go nil to pieces. Something
did happen one day, and this Is what
It was and bow Mlrnuda acted:
Miranda was a very good looking girl,
and I would have fancied bur if she
liud had inure grit. I'm a practical
sort of fellow, and It never seemed to
me that I wanted a wife who. If I left
her alone for au hour and a peddler or
u trump came along, would be scared
to death. I would always be worrying
nbout her till 1 not back to her. Still
I always hud a liking for Miranda
aud the principal part of It was that
I felt very sure she bad a decided
liking for me.
Hut, us I was saying, this Is wbut
happened: One day all the Jones fam
lly wus Invited to go over to spend
the day with Deacon Wlrta' folks. Ml
rnmla bad a headache or something
and thought she wouldn't go. The
rest of them weut off in the wagon
after the morning chores were done
and were to be back about 5 o'clock
How they dared leave her all alone In
a furmhouso with no neighbor nearer
than a mile I don't know. Miranda
told me they were going, and I kind
of thought she fancied 1 might happen
II long while they were gone, and I
might do a little courting.
The family hadn't been gone very
long before s man came down the road
find when he got to the house turned
In at the well for a drink of water. As
be was pulling up the bucket and
drinking out of the gourd be kept a
lookout on the bouse. It must have
looked pretty quiet and as If there
wasn't anybody there. When be got,
through drinking he went to tha bouse,
opened the door and walked In.
The only way to get the rest of the
story was from Miranda herself, so
there's no use In telling whether she
acted brave or cowardly. She said she
wanted to run across the fields, but
she didn't dure do so because she was
afraid the man would kill her while
she was running. The truth Is, when
her grandmother died she had left Ml
randn $000 the old lady bud saved dur
Ing u period of many years. It was in
quarters, dimes, nickels and cents, and
In the same woolen stocking the grand
mother bad kept It. Miranda, in seek
lug a safe place for It, bad hit on the
big chimney. She lind climbed up In
It. found a loose brick, taken It out
put In the stocking mid covered it with
a part of the brick, protecting It from
lire nnd concealing the place where she
kept '.t.
I remembered what Miranda bad snld
about the folks going nway, though I
hadn't said I'd go over. After dinner,
the weather being tine and the driv
ing good. I allowed I'd harness up my
tiinru, run over und ask ber to go for
a drive. It's four miles from our farm
to theirs, nnd 1 Jogged along, thinking
if the drive I wus going to have and
wondering what Miranda was doing
here ull by herself. When 1 got pret
ty near the house 1 saw her sitting
on the stepping platform In front of
he bouse. A moment after 1 Orst saw
icr she got up ana rniaeu a guu sue
held In her hands and pointed It as
hough she was going to shoot a bird
ft" the top of tho chimney.
"Well, I'll be dod rotted." I said to
myself. "If that isn't the queerest sight
I ever saw-Mlrauda during to use a
gun:
I drove right up to her, nnd as I did
so I glanced at the chimney top to see
tie bird she was trying to get a shot
ut when 1 was flabbergasted at seeing
a man's bend pop up above the bricks.
Then Miranda, seeing me. dropped the
gun and fell in a faint.
It didn't require more than a few
seconds to take in the situation. Mi
randa had a man up the chimney.
Who he was or how she got him there
dldu't concern me Just theu. Leaviug
her on the grass to come to herself
when she got ready, I picked up the
gun. Then I called to the man to
show himself. He did so, and 1 ask
ed for an explanation.
"That gal," he snld, "has got the
devil in ber. 1 might as well confess
that, finding her alone, I told ber if
she didn't tell me where the fumily
kept their money I'd kill ber. She said
they kept It up the chimney. 1 weut
up after It. and she barricaded the fire
place with heavy furniture so 1
ronldu't get out that way. aud when 1
climbed up to get out this way she
was watching mo with a guu. I'm
glad you've come along. I'm nearly
dead In this cramiHHl place. I've been
here nearly three hours."
Well, that's the end of the story. I
fold the matt to come down (he wasn't
armed). Miranda came to herself, and.
Instead of taking a pleasure drive, I
drove the man to the county seat and
turned him over. I married Miranda.
I thought after what she'd done 1
might depend upon no one getting any
cash t might leave with ber when 1
was away.
Since we've been married I have had
but one chance tn see how Miranda
will sot In presence of danger. A
mouse came out of Its bole; she shriek
ed and got on a chair.

For the past week Indepen
dence has been visited by a num
ber of house to house canvassers
who had for sale all kinds of ar
ticles. Among the things offered
were toilet goods, silver and brass
cleaners, kitchen utensils, laces
and dress proods, all of which are
offered for sale by home mer
1 1 1 A I
enancs at me same price or
cheaper.
Now the Monitor is opposed to
outside firms selling goods in this
city unless they, like the home
mercharts, pay for the privilege.
The home merchant pays in tax
es and donations to meritorious
enterprises. If he makes a pro
fit on his goods, part of that
profit (and all of it in many ca
ses) is used in the development,
upbuilding and upkeep of the
city. "Cat" houses, mail order
concerns or their agents pay
practically nothing, 'lheir rep
resentatives are here today and
gone tomorrow. Many of them
are as big a fraud as the fellow
who drops into town with some
kind of an "advertising" scheme
in which he sells or offers to sell
to the merchants a "space" for a
certain amount. His proposition
isn't "advertising," it's stealing.
So the Monitor suggests that
an ordinance be introduced and
passed by the city council requir
ing the payment of a license fee
of $25 daily by non-resident
house to house canvassers. This
will stop them entirely as they
should be. The merchants of
this city should insist upon the
adoption of such ?. tax and for
ever eliminate unfair and unjust
competition of a kind that bene
fits nobody a penny.
their meeting as usual on Sunday after
noon st their head uarters, the Metho
dist church. Mrs. James, the superin
tendent, was present to care for the
little band of workers. All were glad
to see her Emiling face again at her
post as this was the sscond time she
had been able to be with them for a
long time as she was kept away by a
severe sickness. A goodly number
were present at roll call, new members
idded, and the report showed over one
hundred names on the roll. The hour
was well filled with singing, speaking
ind plans for future work. It was
thought best to postpone the picnic be
cause of the festivities of the psst
week and the damp weather for outside
pleasures. So at a suitable time and
place they will give their program as
planned. Mrs. Morgan and Mrs. Whit-
eaker were present to assist in the
work and will help the children to have
a good outing when the time and weath
er will permit it. All are invited to
come and join tHs little temperance so

work to reach the voters through the
rural districts and towns, to help get
all to register and to help to make our
