1t is not generally understood that
the settlers who claim lands on the
White Earth reservation which open
December, do not get the benefit Of the
Communication clause in the land laws.
In addition to living on the land five
years, the settler must pay SIPS per
acre for the same. The free home bill
does not apply to land opened up sub
sequent to it's passage, although Con
gress at any time may extend the law
to cover the White Earth lands. The
fact that these four townships are not
on the free list will tend to discourage
a rush of home-grabbers for speeula-
tion purposes. And Uncle Sam never
intended to encourge other than
genuine home-builders when distribut-
ing land with a patarnal hand.

an undoubted case Of suicide and such
is the opinion and decision Of Coroner
Hood, who held an inquest on the body.
The old man kept in the middle Of The
track and walked toward the train
until he met it. The train was on quite
a stiff down grade and it would have
been difficult matter to have stopped
even had there been any apparent
reason for it. Duff was fully aware Of
the trains approach, had plenty Of time
to get off the track and would have
done so had he not deliberately contem-
plated ending his life.
Engineer l.. Zimmerman testified
that he saw Duff coming at distance
Of about 200 yards. Both whistles were
blown and the bell rung. The air was
on at the time and was put in emery

They have gone down about 25 feet on
an incline. following the vein, which at
that depth is in hard solid rock. The
ore at the top was very much decom-
posed, with the quartz in small particles,
but at the depth they have reached, the
quartz is much more solid and the ledge
presents a much more permanent ap-
pearance. The ore is very rich. the
decomposed matter yielding from to
p cents to the pan. Above this vein,
at distance Of few feet and running
on the same dip" is another Of al.
most exactly similar appearance. but
carrying apparently no value. These
veins approach each other as they 90
down and seem likely to run together at
little greater depth. The aurlierous
vein runs from a few inches to foot
and half in width. They have now
about five tons of ore on the dump and
will have mill test made in the near
future.

One OF the most sensational tragedies
in the history OF southern Oregon oc-
Cured at Jacksonville Saturday night.
A family named Traylor had recently
moved there from Douglas county.
With them lived Miss Eta Beeson,
the sister Of Mrs. Traylor. Miss Beeson
was engaged to a young man named
Hardenbrook, whose home was near
Drain. Traylor opposed the marriage.
Some accounts assert that he was iniat-
uated with Miss Beeson and had pro-
posed eiopemeDt. HardenbrOok had
arrived at Jacksonville that morn
ing in response TO a letter from Miss
Beeson and they were to have been
married on Monday. On the evening in
question, Harlenbrook and Miss Beeson
were visiting together in the kitchen at
Traylor's. The young man sat with his
back 10 the pantry, the door of which
was open. About II o'clock Traylor
slipped around to the rear Of the house
and shot Hardenbrook with a ride,
through the pantry window, the tall
penetrating his brain.
Traylor then ran short distance 10
tho corral Of the old Rogue River l 8.
lillery and there ended his own lie vii
tEo bullets from tbs same weapon.
Traylor leaves wife and nine children,
the eldest of whom is only Is years OF
age. He had previously borne a good
character. Hardenbrook bore a good
reputation as. quiet sober young man.
