Strange Motorist Kills Dog An unidentified motorist, a stranger driving through town, aroused the ire of local citizens last week when he ran down and killed an Airedale puppy on Cascade avenue near the corner of Fourth street. The young dog, the ownership of which was not deter mined, was running playfully ahead of a team driven by Victor Beauregard, East Side rancher, when it dashed under a rear wheel of the automobile. The street was covered with snow and the pup was dragged by the skidding wheel for nearly a block before finally passing over the animal, breaking its neck. The driver then stopped the car within two feet of the dying dog, while citizens who had witnessed the acci dent denounced him fop too speedy driving on the snowy Btreets. The motorist declared that a sign at the west edge of the city permitted a speed of 20 miles, and that he was within this limit. He promised to re port the killing of the dog to the sheriff s office, but so lar ne naa not appeared. Judge Castner Home from Visit Judire Castner. who has just returned from Penticton, B. C, where he vis ited the family of his boh, John B. Castner, now engaged in the fruit bus iness, says the Canadian distiict re ceived record prices the past year for peaches apricots and cherries. Ihe district suffered no frost damage, and fair yields were harvested. Ihe apple crop, however, he says, was only 40 per cent of normal. 1 ne crop nas been sold for an average of ll.W per box. Crop prospects for 1921 are re ported good. Judge casmer says uie weauier ui the provincial district has been very similar to that of Hood River. The temperature had not dropped low enough when he left to freeze a new curling rink just constructed. Deep snows in the Hope mountains, now ever. had blocked rail traffic between Penticton and Vancouver. Schoolmate Inquires About Mr. Smith Postmaster Reavis has received a letter from F. M.
