Alone about 3 o'clock the hunger began to make the boys desperate and they rose in their wrath and told the marshal that they must have food. The fact that if he con fined .nine baseball players, with eood, large-sized appetites, tor three days in the city j ail, he would have to send to i'ortiana lor sup plies, seemed to bring him to his senses and at 5:15 the boys were fed at the expense of the populace nnd turned loose. , "We disturbed the peace of Milton," said one of iUa victim tti ft renorter.

The following essay is from the pen of a bright Athena boy, and was read bv him at the Weston normal school recently: ATHENA. ,. Athena is situated about three miles west of Weston on a level tract of land a little north of the Wild Horse creek. It is on the Union Pacific R. R.. and also the end of a branch of another rail-1 road called the Hunt. ' . It : is supplied with water by well? and a large tank fixed far up on poles. The water is pumped into this tank from a large well by the Mill Company There is a large pipe coming from this, and going to nil parts of the city. From this other pipes come on, and come above the ground. From inis wuier is lasen tor mo Liuryuoo of washing, drinking, quenching fires, etc. . Athena has a broom factory which ships many brooms to differ ent places. They first sort the broom straws; then there is a handle put into machinery, a little dent cut into it, into which wire is fastened. Then the straw is worked in little bv little until there is enough in. Then wire is wrapped around to hold it firm. Then it is fixed in the shape of a broom and sewed. The next and last process is to brush off the Fined Fifty Dollars. L. F. Inman, better known as Doctor Inman, is again in the grasp of the law. He was arraigned be fore Justice Parks and proven omit rf nrnnticiner medicine With- J I o . - . out a license as required by the statutes of Oregon. The court decided that $50 was a just amount for Mr. Inman to pay lor vioiaung the statutes and he accordingly assessed him that amount. Notice of appeal to the circuit court was filed.

A Sufferer Cured "Every season, from the lime I was two years old, I suffered dread fully from erysipelas, which kept . growing worse until my hands were almost useless. The hones softened so that they would bend, and several . of my fingers are now crooked from dm this cause. On my hand 1 carry large scars, which, but for AYER'S Sarsaparilla, would he sores, provided I (was alive and able to carry anything. Eiirht bottles or Ayer's Sarsaparilla cured me, so that I have had no return of the disease for more than Iwenty years.
