VALLA WALLA WHEAT
HARVEST IS OVER AND
PLOWING IS TO BEGIN
Farmers Are Awaiting Rains for Fall
Work-Planting Likely to Prove
Heavier Than Year Ago Because
of Better Yields. v';
Walla Walla. Waah.. Bept II. Now
that the laat stray field of wheat In the
higher levels of the Walla Walla valley
. has been garnered, and hauling Is near
1 completed, the farmers of this see
tlon of the state are looking forward to
a heavy precipitation that will place the
ground In good condition for fall plow
ing. There have been comparatively few
sales during the past week, even though
prices have Shown a slight upward ten
dency, and the deals closed have been
of a email nature, the majority of the
growers still holding on for higher fig
ures. Club now is selling for 7o71tyc
with some slight prospects for an increase-
during the coming week.
The weather for the 1VU harvest has
been, according to all farmers, the most
ideal experienced here in many years,
but one or two light showers having
fallen since tXuf first gratp was cut.
The roads now are in such a bad con
dition,, due to the heavy hauling of the
past three weeks, that the farmers are
anxious for rain. The fields, it is
said, will be in tine condition for plow
ing with a heavy rain, and as soon as
the soli Is sufficiently moistened 'the
work will be started.
It Is the general opinion of farmers
near this city that the acreage of fall
sown grain this year will be consider
ably larger than was seeded last fall,
because of the fact that the fall sown
grain harvested had every advantage
over the spring sown wheat, and Hhowed
a better average yield throughout the
country.'

HEAVY PEAR CANNING
Eugene Association Put Up Third
of Million Pounds Big
Prune Crop In Sight,
Eugene, Or., Sept. IS. More than a
third of a million pounds Qf pears have
been canned at the cannery of the Eu
gene Fruitgrowers' association, and the
biggest run on pears in the history of
the association closes this evening.
Monday the association will begin dry
ing prunes. It is said that the orop
this year Is ths largest in years. It is
expected that 6,000,000 pounds of
prunes, green, will be dried and packed
and shipped at the cannery during the
next few weeks. These two crops, most
of which is already sold, will net the
growers over $126,000.
J. O. Holt, manager of the associa
tion, has discovered a plum that can be
raised In Lane county and that can be
shipped. For years he has experiment
ed with several varieties, but without
raising one that would stand to ship
any distance. What he sought was one
with a desirable flavor, but one which
will keep when packed for shipment
across the continent. He has found
that the Wixon, a plum that is adapted
to the soil of this valley, meets these
requirements. It looks very much like
a peach and is said to be delicious. He
will plant a lot of trees of this variety
and will advise others to do the same.

JEALOUS HUBBY BREAKS
INTO WRONG APARTMENT
New Tork, Sept IS. Ag ths result of
a serious blunder on his part, James B.
Zardlng, a traveling salesman of Brook
lyn, and four private detectives whom
he had employed In an effort to obtain
damaging, evidence against his wife,
whom hi wishes to divorce, were sen
tenced each to one month In Jail. Zar
lng had for some time suspeoted his
wife, and had her shadowed to a certain
apartment, house by private detectives.
One night last week, after the sleuths
had reported that Mrs. Zaring was visit
ing some one in one of the flats of ths
apartmsnt house In question, Mr. Zaring,
accompanied by four detectives, made
his way to the apartment bouse and
stealthily climbed up the fir escape to
reach the flat where his unfaithful wife
was supposed to be.
Through some unpardonable blunder,
Zaring and his helpers entered the
wrong flat, and when the occupants, an
artist and his wife, awakened from the
noise made by the intruders, climbing
through then window, defended them
selves against the supposed burglars, a
terrible fiht it) the dark ensued. Fur
niture was upset, lamps and vases were
broken, and so much noise was made
that ths occupant of the adjoining flat
who happened to have a woman visitor,
blew a police whistle and then made his
escape down ths fire escape, while bis
visitor fled down the stairs.
' Zaring was miserable enough when he
learned that he had Invaded ths wrong
flat, and when the magistrate sentenced
him and his helpers to, a month In jail,
but wheu he waa Informed that it was
the occupant of ths flat which he had
Intended to Invade who had blown the
pol'oe whistle and had then made his
escape, he was even more dejected. '

PARISIAN POLICE COPE
On One Occasion Gallant Po
liceman Shoots Colleague in
Leg; "Spirit" Gets Silver.
By tte International NeT Service.)
Paris, Sept H. Three comio bur
glaries have occurred during the week
here.
Three burglars were surprised In an
attempt, to break .Into a house in the
Baubourg du Temple and tried to es
cape. Two of them succeeded, but the
third was confronted by Mme. Amaga,
the occupant of the house. He Implored
pardon, saying that he had taken
refuge in the house as he was pursued
by Apaches.
The woman professed pity for him
and hid him In a bed. The man fell In
with the idea without suspicion, and
two mtnutea later Mme. Amaga returned
with a couple of policemen and gave
him In oharge.
At Dijon when M. Charles, a shop
keeper, returned home in the night he
heard noisea which he took to be caused
by burglars. He ran for the police and
with them reentered the house. One of
the policemen, however, was so sgitated
whether from fear or the prospect of
promotion Is not stated that he fired
too coon and shot his colleague In the
leg.
The while the policeman was being
taken to hospital the "burglar" was
discovered. The noise which had alarmed
M. Charles was the snoring of his serv
ant in the next room, and what annoyed
the policemen most was that she slept
through it all.
The third case has a splrltuallstlo
setting. M. and Mme. Masser, living in
the Rue Croix &'ivert. In Paris, declared
that since the death of their only son
two years ago they had been in the
habit of conversing with him. The
other evening, while they sat in dark
ness waiting for the spirit to appear,
they heard a noise in the next room.
They waited tn vain for the spirit to
manifest itself, and got up to go to bed
with the consoling thought that It had
been there, although It had not spoken
to them. Before retiring they looked
Into the dining room next door, and
what they saw shook their faith in
splrltual'sm.
Everything of value had been removed
by the "spirit," whom the concierge de
olared had rushed' past her on the stairs
carrying a well filled bag.

To" complicate the situation Mme.
Poeckes was expecting the arrival of
the stork on or about the night of ths
tragedy. Could she, she asks, no mat
ter what the provocation, slay the
father of her child at such a timet The
police believed she could, and arrested
her on suspicion, locking her up in the
famous prison of St Lasarre here where
here baby, christened Marls, was born.
On account of the wealth and social
prominence of ths principals, the af
fair Is likened to the Stelnhell murder
mystery whloh was followed by the
trial and acquittal of Mme. Stelnhell,
the artist's wife. Another such trial is
a certainty, for in spite of Mme.
Poeckes' protestations of Innocence the
police claim to have a strong case
against her.
"On th night of June IS," Mme,
Poeckes told the police, "my husband
and I went to bed around 9:30. Shortly
before midnight I knew the time by
what happened afterwards I was
awakened with a violent start by the
noise of a pistol shot at my .side. I
thought my husband waa in the grip of
one of his terrible hallucinations and
Instinctively I sprang up to defend my
self. I remember feeling the revolver
against my hand which was gripping
his; of a little struggle; of more pistol
shots, while my husband's arm was
twisted back of him. Later I dlsoovered
the firearm in my hand and I unloaded
It; then. In a dase I telephoned for
help."
This Is ths wife's story In a nut
shell. She has told it over and over
again and cannot be shaken In any of
the details. Her face, framed in a
wealth of Bernhardtlsh hair has been
described as being a perfect type of the
sweet primitive Italian seen in the
paintings of Bernardino LulnL

GERMANY WORRIED OVER
ARMY OF UNEMPLOYED
Berlin, Sept IS. With an unprece
dented army of unemployed to assist,
feed and shelter, government and mu
nicipal authorities and the charitable
labor organisations of Germany, are
looking forward to the coming winter
with more than usual dread. Not in
many years has there been so many un
employed in the summer. As winter
nears this number is swelling rapidly.
Knowing from experience that unem
ployment and hunger tends to create
disorder among the masses, the State
and municipal authorities are already
casting about to create work and in
crease the facilities of ths homes for
the homeless and needy.
Few visitors to Berlin with Its beau
tiful streets, flower covered balconies,
dressy crowds and gay night life would
suspect that hunger, misery and wretch
edness could exist there. A visit to
the night shelters, refuges homes and
employment offices, tells ths other side
of the story.
Political unrest the Balkan war and
the financial and Industrial situation,
has had a most dspressing effect upon
the labor market
