E. C. ROBERTS APPLIES
FOR WIDOWER'S PENSION
Incident atCounty Clerk Mark's
Office This Morning Crises
Merriment.
Applying to County Clerk Willard
L. Marks this morning, C. E Roberts
a prosperous- gardner' and fruit ex
pert of near Lebanon, who said that
he is a bashful, and not through blos
soming widower, wanted to know if
the affable county clerk would not
go before County Judge Bruce Mc
Knight, and make affidavit in his be
half for a widow's pension. Mr.
Marks willingly assented to this and
told Mr. Roberts that he will be put
on -the list as the twenty-sixth appli
cant for pension. It was agreed that
if Judge McKnight did not act favor
ably on. the application that the re
call would be instituted.
Everybody knows Mr. Roberts as
a wk and humor artist and from the
way he entered Mr. Marks' office and
placed his case before him one might
have thought for a second that he
really meant it as he can assume such
a serious attitude and yet at the same
time be comical when such occasion
demands it. The matter was accepted
at the clerk's office with much mer
riment by the fact that Mr. Roberts
impersonation of 3 s-person who ap
oeared to be ignorant and misled as
to the provisions of the law was so
realistic and genuine.

Small Plant Backed by Small
Capital; Its Products Are of
Superior Quality.
OWNED AND OPERATED
BY MR. B. A. SMITH
Manufactures Knives, Razors
and Sack Needles; Has Work
to Keep 6 Men Busy.
It was learned today that Tangent
has a cutlery factory.
Although it is a small plant and
is backed by small capital, the fac
tory manufactures bonified knives,
razors and sack needles of superior
quality and every article is fully guaranteed.
The plant is owned and operated
by B. A. Smith who does all of the
work himself but stated that he has
work enough to keep six men busy.
The plant was established only a
short while ago at Tangent and has
since been "turning out its products
on which there seems to be a great
demand. Mr. Smith has encounteded
no trouble in disposing of his wares
and many cutlery and hardware stores
throughout the country have laid in
a stock of the articles.
Cooped up in a small room, with
all the necessary implements at his
command which represent a small in
vestment, Mr. Smith started the busi
ness which has assumed such encou
raging proportions that its proprie
tor is elated over his success but is
deterred from enlarging the business
at the present time by the lack of
the necessary capital.
The grade of knives, razors and
sack needles are. of an exceptionally
high quality and represent the per
fection of workmanship as Mr, Smith
has had many years experience in the
art. On every article manufactured
bv the plant there is placed a full
guarantee as to the quality and dura
bility of the. article.
Working everv day and nearly ev
ery night, Mr. Smith is kept contin
uously busv manufacturing the wares
to stipplv the overflowing demand.
"I could keen six men busy as bees,"
stated Mr. Smith, 'and' when 'ithc
riuht men come round and things are
ripe I may be able to put Tancrent
on the man with my factory."

TWO SUFFER FROM MILD
ATTACK OF SMALLPOX
Joe Singleton and Victor Long
Sick; Report As to Others
Denied by Relatives.
That four Albany boys are sick
with small pox at Hooper, Washing
ton, was the report that gained cir
culation in Albany late yesterday af
ternoon. According to the story,
Clinton Archibald, Joe Singleton, Rol
la Bruce and Victor Long are con
fined in a hospital in a small town
in the vicinity of Spokane and the re
port caused a great deal of anxiety on
the part of their relatives and friends.
A letter was received from Victor
Long this morning and he confirmed
the report that he had been sick with
an attack of small pox and that Joe
Singleton has also been sick with the
same disease. In both cases how
ever, the attack was of mild nature
and the boys arc said to be rapidly
recovering.
C. S. Bruce this morning received a
letter from his. son in which no men
tion was made of being sick and his
parents therefore believe that the re
port that he was ill was eroneous.
When asked this afternoon as to
the report that her son was ill, Mrs.
Archibald stated that they had re
ceived no information to that effect
and believed that there was no truth
in the report.
The Albany boys are employed on
railroad construction work in the vi
cinity of Spokane.
