A buxom young girl had a pros pective high old Christmas time cut short yesterday by a member of the police force, says the Walla Walla Union. She was dressed in men's clothes and had Just come down out of one of the lodging houses on Main street on her way up town, with an escort of doubtful character. She might have carried her dis guise further but upon seeing a mem ber of- tho police force she droppe 1 her head In an effort to hide her face in a manner that attracted the officer's attention. The further up the street she went the more con vinced he became that she was a woman and followed the pair Into a restaurant. She evidently saw that he was go ing to arrest her, and tried to hide, but was overtaken In the kitchen and marched up to police headquarters, where the chief proceeded to give her a curtain lecturs. She put up a bold front for a while, but finally broke down and began crying. She said she was from down near Lowden station and was In town ou a visit, and thought she would see how she would appear on the street as a man. The chief called her attention to the fact that she had started out with rather questionable company on such an escapade, but allowed her to go upon promising to return home and behave herself.

Tho place Is now mak ing 4000 pounds of butter a week; more than 600 pounds per day. The cream comes from Benton and ad joining counties, Including large ship ments from Yaqulna Bay. Tha experience of those who are dealing with the creamery Is that the Industry Is profitable for the farmer, especially where the standard of the herd has been properly raised. If there have been failures. It Is tracea- i ble to poverty cows. Animals whose milk product tests a low per cent and that yield but a moderate amount are responsible for nil failures. The business won't pay If poor cows are relied upon. Seven dollar. 8 nnd $9 a month cows are possible, and until dairymen bring their herds to that point, they are not reallrng the possibilities that are In the business. SUltVlVOItS AT SEATTLE.

The telegram to the effect that the passengers taken off the Portland, after she had gone on the rocks, had been transferred to the Santa Clara was received by the local agents this morning. The Santa Clara was due to reach this port this morning, but has been delayed, probably by thick weather, which, no doubt, caused the WTcck of the Portlsf-d. Full details of the accident to the Valdex liner will be received on the Santa Clara, aa the official report of Captain Llndqulst tc tho company la expected to arrive on her. As soon aa the particulars 'of the disaster are received the marine un derwriters, who will have charge of salvaging the vessel, will act.
