Sheep marking paint ; ready for use.
Two colors, black and red.
Why you
should UBe our sheep paint. First, be
cause the colors are ground thoroughly
in pure linseed oil by finn machinery;
secoud, because it is made of high grade
color, with the proper amount of dryers
added to give it binding und lasting
j qualities, which prevent it from washing
or running oil ; tturu, it is mucli moio
economical, because it is always ready
for use. We guarantee our theep mark
ing paints to give satisfaction. Try it
and be convinced. Clarke it Falk,

The last fifteen minutes of the meeting

Btruck him with a cue on the head. The
attacked man tried to dodge and Pierce
hiew the cue at him, missing aim and
lining Frank Caldwell, a peaceful min
er, who was sleeping in a chair, with the
butt end of the cue just above the left
temple, fracturing the skull. The in
jured man was taken to a hospital and a
t piece of bis skull two inches long was
removed. Caldwell came down from
the California mine, where he was em
ployed. He was taking a vacation. He
is about forty years old, and a splendid
specimen of physical manhood. "Hobo

on the O. Ii. it N., is now in jail await

tournament between the Umatilla House
and the club teapi last evening, re
sulted as follows :

204 Second Game 2iJ2

192 Fourth Game 220
This gives the club rollers eight games
out of twelve, and should the Umatilla
House boys win the next four games the
tie would haye to be decided by the
number of plus. It is not likely to re
sult in a tie as it is very unlikely that
they will win this number of straight
games.
