Old Landmark Passes. The old Bailey building at corner of Main and Water streets, now about to be demolished or removed to give way to the new automobile establish ment was built by Judge Bailey, fath er of the late D. W. Uailey and Mr.-?. William Jones, about the year 187S. It was occupied as the U. S. post office until the winter of 18S2-3 when the office was removed to the corner of Court and Johnson streets, where Me Cormmach garage now stands. Lo Livermore was postmaster in those days and Horace E. Bickers was as sistant postmaster. Judge Bailey was a lawyer, justice of the peace and county judge. After the removal of the postoffice the building was used by Mrs. Crane as a dressmaking shop, and later Mr. Bailey had an office in the building, and until very recent years the lower floor has been utilized only by temporary occupants and by the Hotel Pendleton for sample rooms. The small building immedi ately to the east, which is also now to disappear, is an older structure and was the Bailey law office in his prime. It was later the law office of Peter West of divorce fame, and of J. E. Miller, who flourished here in the ni neties. For a short time after the re moval of the postoffice some of the older citizens are of the opinion that there was a hardware store located in the building. Pendleton Tribune. Spokane, Wash.

D'JA WANNA WALK WITH A GOOD MAN? HOME SWEET HOME by Jack Wilson THAT ALL DftNn$ cjn wep Teey ST AST FROM! Has a XYw Sytoin. I O. B. Robertson has a system all his own when it comes to buying a , ranch and sheep. It is simple buy first and look at it when you j get time. This morning he went to Lone Rock to take a look at 3500 acres! he purchased from John Maidment, ! also two bands of sheep, a deal that involved a total of more than sixty j thousand dollars. This is his first j visit to his farm, as he never saw it before, either before or after the deal was made. This system can be recommended only when dealiug with a man like Mr. Maidment. Condon Globe Times. Spokane, Wash. First national bank of Pullman has launched a fiig club campaign. The bank was emin ently successful in a similar move ment to encourage sheep clubs.

AFTER SLEEP OF CENTURIES Ecclesiastic May Be Said to Have Re turned to Earth for a Few Brief Moments. There was a little gathering In the green graveyard of mi old priory chnrch. There wus the rector and an old antiquary In rusty black, a few neighboring squires, the county police sergeant, the sexton and a laborer or two, while an ancient stone coffin, re cently unearthed, lay on the ground. "Who do you suppose It Is, profes sor?" Inquired the rector. The old man In black polished his glnsses and adjusted them carefully. "It must be Thomas IVIioehm's," he said. "Thomas w ho was prior here In the time of Henry 111, about 1220. But we shall see." A hush fell on the group as the men set to work with hammer and chisel. "All ready," the sexton reorted presently. They took off their hats and the policeman removed his helmet. The ponderous lid was slowly pushed aside and they were gazing at the calm, strong face of an ecclesiastic In rich silk vestments, wrapped In his 700 years' sleep. "Yes, It's Thomas," murmured the professor, with the air of one recog nizing an old friend. "Very like the contemporary portrait on the vellum." As they continued to gaze, spell bound, a weird thing happened. The vestments gradually lost their color ing inn) then all that the coffin con tained crumbled before their eyes to a mere handful of ashes. "luist to dust," whispered the rec tor. Very subdued and silent the little company dispersed. London Times. PHANTOM GAVE GOOD ADVICE Apparition That Appeared to French Shepherd Was Possibly Some Re lation to the Leprechaun. Every Irishman can tell you about the Leprechaun, the little man who dresses In red with a peaked cap, and lives In the ditches. Only one person can see him at a time, nnd If he does catch sight of him, must never take his eyes off for a single moment. Watching him carefully, he must run and catch him, and If he succeeds In doing so the Leprechaun will ransom himself by lending his captor to a creek of hurled gold. At least, so runs the legend. Sumo years ago a French shepherd of Avejrori lost two sheep. The fol lowing evening a figure In a black robe and with tonsured head appeared to him, and told him to look for the lost members of his flock In a cave near Altes, adding that he would there find "more tliun sheep." The next day the shepherd found the cave mouth exactly as described. Inside were his two sheep. Beyond, he came upon a chapel carved In the rock and containing chalices, censers, and candle-sticks all made of solid silver, and of very considerable value. A letter found In a missal showed that the place hud been used as a place of worship during the Itelgn of Terror In 17!H. The shepherd took the orna ments to his parish priest and was well rewarded for his find. II 4UR6 TMlNfr.WiCtfSNSl -VMERI'U. t Ft HO HIM? WHAT S tmat Oot S TO 00 WITH IT ? J j WELL - FPOM WHtRI?

Very extensive lobster catches are reported off the eastern const of Can ada. Keccntly the boats were taking these faster than the fuctorles could pucli them. The catch was divided over the various canning factories. One boat, belonging to a well known Meet, took us many as 4,4M) fish.
