evening. While It was somewhat
lengthy there was no lack of inter
est from beginning to end. The
work of the students was especially
good. Every character was well
taken. Van Brink didn't have to
say a word to bring down the
house. He acted the part of ' Sir
Humphrey Bunn" to perfection
and the rest of the cast while not
so comical, was equally well done.
The seniors and their instructors
deserve lota of credit. The high
school orchestra added much to the
Dleasure of. the evening. The fol

This makes the largest aggregate
shipment of sheep from this point
in some time and will be followed
by probably fifty more cars in a
week or ten days It establishes
the fact that the country tributary
to Shaniko is not entirely depleted
of sheep.
This shipment consists of about
35,600 sheep, mostly contracted for
early in the spring to be delivered
at this time, and represents a cash
outlay of over $100,500.

"A three-game series between
the local baseball team and the
Knights of Columbus nine, of Port

Hughes, manager of the Portland
team, completed arrangements with
the local management last week.
"The Prineville team is composed

Buck Lindsey didn't make a clean
get-away with his horses. He did
get across the mountains but
officers were hot on his trail and
nabbed him at Sweet Home. Buck
had only seven horses left of the
original twelve. He had sold five
in short order. He took ten from
Lake county and while passing the
Millican ranch thought he might
just as well have an even dozen so
took two more. One of these he
sold before he reached Sisters on
the road over the mountains. You
might say he sold it to one of
Millicc'i's neighbors so bold are his
operations. The other he rode to
Sweet Home.
The officers of both Lake and
Crook counties were so close on his
heels that it was a toss-up for some
time as to who would get the tl50
offered by Lake county for his ap
prehension. Deputy Sheriff We-
here he used to pose as a horse
thief detective. He worked for
George Russell and also for E. H.
Smith. While on the Smith ranch
he decamped with one of Mr.
Smith's horses and the owner never
dul get track of it. Buck was no
novice at the horse rustling business.
