formation upon the activities of the

CATTLE BRAND
IS REGISTERED
Spokane, Wash., (United Press)
When the old west was in the mak
ing, cattlemen found It a acource of
security to brand their stock. Now-
days, the same holds true regard
ing motorists, who find it a scource
of protection and Identification to
register their automobile.
Bo it was with much surprise and
consternation that the count audi
tor and his staff undertook to hon
or the request of Miss Eliza Roae
nau, who appeared at the auditor's
office recently to have her cattle
brand registered.
However, the auditors were tint
stumped very long. The brand book
was discovered hidden away in a
forgotten nook of the office and
the papers were drawn up. It
stated in so many words that one
Eliza Rosenau desired to register
me orana is. k. on tne right hip
of her stock.
Next the brandlncr Iron wiu huaf-
ed and stamped on a block of wood,
as tne law proscribed, and filed
away iviin other legal matters.
The brand book revealed that.
Miss Rosenau's request was only
aoout tne tenth such In the last
20 years. The first brand filed In
Spokane county was entered by
Olaf Mngouson on April 13, 1883.
Since then, 620 brands have been
registered.
FEW PRUNE DRIERS
PLAN OPERATIONS
Monmouth, Ore., July 21. The
prune crop is so thin In most locali
ties hereabouts that some of the
prune men are saying that they
will not bother to run their prune
dryers. However they Intend to har
vest the primes they have. There
arc a few exceptions, who report a
fine crop of prunes. According to
i. i. Aisip, local prune man, the
cold, wet weather in the spring Is
responsible for the poor fruit crop,
especially prunes. -

The nop market has slowed up

Hot, sunshiny days are making

tne crop coming up.
T. A. Llvesley, who Is In Van

to be home next Tuesday or Wed
nesday, In a telephone conversation
with one of his office force today

HOTEL OF 150 ROOMS
HERE, PATTON PLAN
(Continued from Paga 1)
150 rooms. It will front on Court
street, the front of the structure to
be of court architecture about a
grassy lawn, and with a spacious
porch fronting the lobby.
Backing the enterprise will be a
stock company,, but there will be
no general sale of stock. Mr. Dean.
who is to be a stockholder, proposes
to lease the hotel for 15 years at a
guaranteed rental of $38,000 a year.
He himself will furnish it at a cost
of not less than $80,000. . .
The capitalisation plan proposes
an authorization of $175,000 In first
mortgage six per cent bonds, of
which 1150,000 will be outstanding;
first six per cent preferred stock of
275,000, with $200,000 out standing;
and 2750 shares of common stock
of no par value of which 2000 shares
shall be outstanding.
The proposal capital distribution,
totaling $350,000, Is as follows:
Ground valuation, $60,000; building
coat, 150 rooms at $1400 a room,
$240,000; provision for Interest the
first year, $9000; provision for divi
dend first year, $12,000; miscellan
eous expenses, Including architect
fees, attorney fees and fi-iinclng
expenses, $39,000.
It is hoped bjr the backers that
the building will be started this fall.
Mr. Pattoif announces that approxi
mately half of the required capital
has been raised by voluntary sub
scriptions for stock in the project
and that, as yet, no concerted fi
nancing effort has been under
taken. "There will be no stock tales pro
motion undertaken," said Mr. Pat
ton, "and all of the money paid in
will go directly Into the project. We
are not going to have any watered
stock In this enterprise."
HIGH STREET TO BE
CITY'S WHITE WAY
Continued from Pace t) '
tlonate share fo rthe court house
block and the city for the city hall
property.
Mayor Llveseley and the city
council are strongly In favor of the
project, and with the property own
ers see In It great possibilities for
the development of the street. The
type of light Is a two-light unit on
a standard, similar to tnose in front
of the Elslnore theater. Two stand
ards probably will be placed on the
new bridge.
The lighting plan, it waa said to
day by Lars Bargsvik, attorney for
the High street Interests, is depend
ent on the construction of the
open olds on the bridge at the
bridge, and since the council Is to
next meeting It appears that there
Is nothing In the way of Immediate
ly going ahead. ,
OFFICIALS LACK
POWER TO JAIL
'KID' CRIMINALS
, Eacanaba, Mich- (United Press)
This city harbors two of the
worlds youngest criminals. They
are Harry Johnivin, t, and his
brother, Merrill, 9. The police are
powerless to stop their depredations
and plunderings, which have caused
more trouoie tnan any ouier ' gang
In Escanaba's history.
Under the state law governing
juvenile delinquency, children un
der 13 cannot be committed to f
state reformatory. The two Johni
vin boys have been taken Into cus
tody three or four dozen times In
the last 18 months, and each time
have admitted their crimes. All the
police could do, however, was to
offer fatherly advice and send them
on th?ir way again.
ine oovs nave admitted setting
lira to the Baptist church, which
caused damage amounting to 8500.
They have entered stores and
homes. Not even the United States
mall Is Immune to their attacks
They tampered with boxes in thn
postofflce after letting nossesslon
of keys. -;
shor. time ago the nolice were
notified that a woman had her boy
tico oy a cnain to tne porch of the
home. Investigation revealed that
It was Mrs. Johnivin and-she had
cnained up her son in a last des.
perate attempt to keep him out of
trouble.
The last time the youngsters
were caught. Merrill was dressed in
girl's clothes. Inquiry revealed that
Mrs. Johnivin had put the garb on
the boy in the hope he would be too
asnamea to go far from home. But
it did not deter him and he led his
younger brother on an "explora
tion" of business offices which
worked havoc with files and furni
ture.

FUNERAL FOR DEAD
LEADER IMPRESSIVE

career as a soldier and statesman.
Tribes of stoic Yanuia and May
as, 3000 federal Mexican troops and
many more thousands ot the peo
ple ot all Mexico, were gathered to
day to .meet the body of their chief
tain and escort it to a final resting
Place. -
Funeral services, In charge of the
military and as simple aa the hardy
farmer ot Cajeme could wish will
be held this afternoon at the little
village of Huatabampo. Obregon's
birth place.
An added touch of tragedy to a
scene already almost over-laden
with evidences of grief, was the col
lapse again of Senora Obregon this
morning as the funeral train slowly
crept Into the railroad station at
Navojoa. The widowed mother of
several children was Inconsolable
and an American physician, Dr. V.
A. Smelker of Nogales, Ariz., was
called to attend her.
Contrasting sharply with the
streamers of black crepe draped
everywhere about Navojoa, were the
great banks of flowers brought by
persons of every social rank and
plane, as humble tokens of a re
spect lasting even Into death.
Off in the distance to the south
the blue peaks of the Alamos moun
tains framed a setting beautiful
even in its sombreness.
The burial of General Obregon In
the broad lands bounding the Mayo
river will bring him back to a final
sleeping place, where, as a boy he
often rested under the trees of the
valley. It is the true home of the
Obrgons and there at the Hacienda
de Slqulslva, Alvaro was born. All
around lie the vast holdings of the
man who rose to the premier posi
tion of his country, but was not
proof against an assassin's bullets,

- BWnro- - Obregon - with
pninshment of Jose de Leon Toral,
the confessed killer, delayed tor at
least two days,
Toral is to be given a civil trial
and at present the war department
and police department are prevent
ed from - proceeding against the
young caricaturist by an emparo
similar to a writ of habeas corpus
granted yesterday.
Civil trial for Toral Is unusual for
Mexico In the case of such a crime.
Generally, execution la summary,
such as waa the execution of four
men wno attempted to oomD oen
eral Obregon's motor ear last fall.
They were executed by a firing
squad to hira after " crime
3ut it was apparent from the an.
nounccment that Toral would be
given a civil trial that the govern
ment of President Callea desires to
avoid any possible criticism.
Shortly after he was arrested,
President Callea questioned Toral
with the following reported text of
questions and answers:
"Who Influenced you?" Calles
asked.
"It was a mandate of Christ the
K'ng that the laws of his religion
should reign over Mexico," Toral
replied.
"What was your obiect?"
"That the people might not bs
aamnea."
"Who were your accomplices?'
"I had none. I did it all alone.
If I had accomDllces thev could
only have provoked confusion."
"how did you expect to emerge
from this crime?"
"I believed I would be killed, but
you see I am still alive. This is
proof that all Is the work of the
noly spirit.' s,

FRENCH PUPILS
PROTEST EARLY
BEDTIME HOURS
Paris, (United Press) "Curfew)
shall not ring tonight" Is now tin
slogan of the tens of thousands ei
students living In the dormitories of
French "lycees" or high schools,
They are protesting to the govern-,
ment that they do not Intend UJ
be the victims of regulations which
date back to the early part of the)
seventeenth century.
In those days the students werO
placed upon the same basis ai
orphans placed under the govern-,
ment's control. Fixed hours fog
classes, holt an hour for each meal
witn a compulsory hour of rest
after each, studies from five ta
eight o'clock in the evening the
equivalent of modern "home work,
and then after half an hour for
supper and half an hour of official
prayers "bed-time."
But French students an. omhr.
tlous. They now Insist that they
be allowed to remain as long a
necessary after the appointed hour
If they consider their grasp of their
studies Is not comDlete enough en
Insure their passing the next exam-
ma 'on. True, the official sched
ule, posted on the walls of the
lycees and bearing the signature of
Herrlot as Minister of Education,
provides that they must rise not
later than 6 o'clock on summer
mornings and half an hour later la
winter, but there Is a break In tha
study pe.lod, the students have dis
covered, which is sometimes Irre-
paraoie.
Kecreauon periods durlnc the en.
tire day. they nrotest. total mhmrk
two hours, but there are eight ot
them, and what boy can enjoy such
short Installments of football, and
what girl can tell her closest chum
her secrets in short periods?
Jean-Jacnues Rouaaeaii and lu.
scartes laid the foundation of the)

but they did It after the light of
their own association Tim- i,

new laws for educational progress
and success.

Santa clara, Calif.,' (LP) A new'
theory regarding the shape of tntj
earth has been advanced by P. A.
Giannlnl, young Italian scientist
who recently visited at the Unlvcra
sity of Santa Clara.
According to Giannlnl, the world
Is a cylinder extending lndett
itely into space, Instead of belnf
a sphere with north and soutll
poles. . 1
The young Italian, according a)
reports, began his research by M
study of naratives written by polai
explorers, Conception of the new
idea requires the consideration ot
the earth as a continuous whirl
lng cylinder, a supposition which
differs from the adherents ot tht
Copcrnican theory.
