S. Knickerbocker, who lives near Deadmond's ferry, brought In a vegetable which he calls a bean. This specimen measured 28 Inches in length, surpassing the larg est of the former entries in the race by some 19 inches. Mr. Knicker bocher called his specimen a "yard bean, but the sport writer of the Reg ister, who is supervising the race, and Incidentally replenishing his larder, has not yet determined whether or not the large vegetable la eligible In the contest. Another unclassified but real bean ped brought into the office by Mr. Knickerbocher measured 11 inches and the pod contained eleven beans. Beans of other specimens of the vegetable are still-welcomed by the reporters, but It is feared that some stove-side weight or maximum length will have to be set to decide a winner. $25 Reward Will be paid for' recovery of or information leading to the recovery of Ford sedan, bearing motor num ber 5238569 and Oregon license No. 10804, stolen from 995 Alder Satur day night.
