o to lc in oats.
The wheat market ODened with a
hesitating tone, values in both the May

were reports of freeslng grain In sev

waa an influence that caused the mar.

being especially nenenciai to the lu

cold was felt there as In the former.
May was the leader with a net gain of

while July closed nearly lc higher.
The rise on coarse grains forced pro
visions higher and the Inarket scarcely
needed any united support, for it ad
vanced on lta own account during the

from the home of her parents, Mr. and
Mrs. W. E. Lackey, of Chicora, neat
here. They had abandoned hope of
hearing from her. Whether she was
dead or alive they did not know.

that or a town in lower California.
In the face of the babe Mr. and Mrs.

striking. They found no photographer's
imprint on the photo, and decided to
write to the postmaster of tne town
where the photo was mailed for the
names or Photographers. They wrote to
one of the photographers, and yester
day received a letter telling them the
picture was mat or tne babe of J. W,

WASHINGTON TEIES
NEW PBIMABY LAW
(United PreM Leased Wire.)
Seattle, Wash.. Feb. 4. Washington's
new primary election law was tried for
the first time in Seattle yesterdav when
candidates were chosen for the munici
pal elections next month: The mayor
alty candldatea chosen were: City party,
William Hickman Moore, the present
mayor; Republican, John F, Miller;
Democratic, James B. Metcalf.
Less than 60 per cent of the total
registered vote of 83,000 was polled.
The general election will be. held on
March 8.
A burglar with a well-developed sense
of humor and a pressing need for money
paid an unsolicited visit to the Burnside
Chop House, 182 Burnside street, last
night. He found no money, but his
sense of humor evidently overcame his
disappointment, as witness the scene
that met the gaie of the proprietor of
the place when he opened tne front door
at an early hour this morning.
All of the meal tickets, blank and
otherwise, in tho place were torn into
bits and the fragmenta carefully de
posited on the counter that they might
be pieced together for the benefit of
those customers who had paid In ad
vance for such cheer aa they chose to
order; the empty register had been filled
with toothpicks, and a balancing act
had been performed with the catsup
bottles, they having been atacked three
high, so that if the proprietor entered
with a too heavy trend the bottles
would fall and it would be the proprie
tor own fault.
Having fixed everything to his appar
ent satisfaction the burglar faded into
the unknown, which region the police
are now searching in an endeavor to fix
the identity of the joker.
SPIKED BOY
HAS
BAD FIT OF GLUES
Chris Schuebel Thinks He
Has Been Treated Bad
ly by Newspapers.
Harassed by a report from Washing
ton that he la about to be dropped as a
candidate for United 8tates district at
torney by Senator Bourne, having failed
to-secure a position In Portland and
having resigned his office in Oregon
City, Chris Schuebel, Oregon's near
United States district attorney, is far
from being a happy man today.
In an Interview with The Journal this
morning Mr. Schuebel adopted the tac
tics of "declining to talk for publica
tion." ...
It was a rather perturbed and un
steady voice that responded to the tele
phone ball for Mr. Schuebel thla morn-
Havs you ' consented to the with,
drawal of your name from the nennte
ss district attorney T" Mr. Schuebel waa
asked.'
- "I don't know." said the appointee.
"Have you beard of any report that
you are to be withdrawn from nomina
tion by Senator Bourne?"
"I can't quite why, I guess so"
"You don t know where you are going
to light then, Mr. Schuebel T"
"I don't want to talk," said the gov-
erhment'e near-prosecutor. "I have
been misrepresented throughout the en
tire affair. The Journal will get no
statement from me. They have not
treated me fair. I don't want to make
any statement."
"Well, would you accept the second
hand Job and become assistant district
attorney as Benator Bourne suggests?"
But there came no answer but the
slamming of the receiver, ao the wait
in world will atlll remain in Ignorance
of whether Schuebel will consent to
play second fiddle or not.
