WILL BORE FOR OIL.
NEW FIELDS AT TROY

Spokane men are reaching out in
their location of oil lands, says the
Chronicle. A recent discovery Of
fields near Troy, Idaho, has been
made by the company Of Rogers, Co.
gill & Seat, and land has been leased
by them upon which several wells will
be sunk as soon as possible.
w. ]. Seat returned from the fields
yesterday and states that several hun
dred acres of land have been secured
upon which there are splendid indica-
tions. Mr.. Seat lived in the locality
several years ago and noticed the phe.
nomenon at that time, but did not at
tribute it to oil.
According to the discOverer's state.
ment, there is a small canyon into
which the springs open. In the early
part of the summer season the head Of
this gulch is filled up with water,
which dries up in the spring and
leaves sediment that is Of rubbery,
gummy nature. This deposit is about
half inch in thickness and on sQueez-
fng it drops Of oil can be forced from
the substance. The odor Is also very
strong.
Mr.. Seat is so strongly impressed
with the indications that he has, in
conjunction with several other busi-
ness men of the city taken leases on
the property, and wells will be start
ed by them as soon as machinery can
be ordered and installed. There will
be no stock company organized, but
the development will be carried on as
a private enterprise.

DINGLE HAS DECAMPED
WITH $4,000 n. P. MONEY
Was Former Spokane Stenographer
Also a Gambler.

Fred H. Dingie, until April /, chief
clerk in the Office of General Manager
Pearce, of the Seattle & International,
at Seattle, is an absconder and leaves
the company short of $4,000. The
police are after him. His description
has been sent by Chief Meredith to
the police departments of Tacoma.
Portland, San Francisco, Oakland, VIC
toria and Vancouver. Dingle left the
city April 3 and has at least a weeks
start of his pursurers.
AS chief clerk in the general man
ayers Office of the Seattle and inter.
national, now a part of the Northern
Pacific Railway company, Dinkle sue
ceeded in three months time in rob-
bing the company of $4,000. His
method was simple. He was in pos
session of book of time checks duly
O. KID by the proper authorities. When
ever he e-needed money he simply made
out a time check, signed a fictitious
name, or forged one, as the circum
stances might be, and then hadi t
cashed at the local Offices of the com
pany or at a local bank.
Dinkle's operations were not discov-
cred until after the consolidation Of
the Seattle & International with the
Northern Pacific. When the transfer
was made a general checking up Of ac-
counts in the various Offices was start
ed and the accountants employed by
the company came across some of Mr..
Dingle's manufactured time checks.
The matter was reported to w. G.
Pearce, assistant to President Mellen
Of the Northern Pacific. An investiga-
tion was at once inaugurated result
ing in the discovery of fraudulent time
checks issued by Dingle aggregating
So, 1000.
At the Office of the Northern Pacific
little information could be obtained re.
garding Dingle's antecedents. The
clerks when questioned stated that
they knew little about the man. In
SO doing they were, it is believed, act
ing under orders from superiors. No
information whatever was given out
regarding the man or his crime. Mr..
Pearce would not discuss tn case, re-
ferring the reporter to the Seattle
police department. At headquarters
it was reluctantly admitted that the
police are looking for Dingle, but no
further information was given out
Dingle was a quiet, little man, with
passion for bucking the tiger. It II
said he once served time in a western
penitentiary.

MEN and Prince Chwang. who commit.
ted suicide on command of the Emper-
ar. The details of the actual suicides
are given with true Chinese barbarity
ana unadorned lucdity. The whole
account, however. bears the stamp of
truth, and the statement OF the Chinese
court that the three officials bad paid
the penalty of their crimes, hitherto
improved. may be considered as con-
firmej. The report runs
Chau-chu-chiau ate gold leaf, which
is the distinguished method Of taking
ones life among the well.to-do Chinese.
Death is caused, not by poisoning. rs Is
generally assumed, but by asphyxia, as
the thin gold leaves stick in the air
passages. Hoping against hope, how
ever. that the Emperor would have
mercy on him, he took too little, and as
he still lived when the time prescribed
had elasped. he took opium and other
means to etfectuate his death. His re-
ligion fsrbade him to do this by ipjnr-
ing his body 10 anyway.
GrlDCe lnWang. WHO received the
news Of his sentence in Bu-chou.fu,
large town in the southwest of Shansi,
immediately hanged himself in a tenn
pie of the local mgnoarin, with whom
he was living. in the presence of the I'M
perial Commissioner, ko-pauhwa. He
used the white silk hood sent him by the
Emperor. as a significant sign of the
mitigated punishment.
Iung-nien. the President of the Court
of Censors, was the most cowardly. He
was in prison IN Singan-fu, and contin-
ually unhraided Prince Ching "for leav-
ing him in the lurch." He sutfotated
himself with earth before the Imperial
decree. so his death was kept hidden
some davs till the decree WAS published.
Prince Tuan apticipsted bis banish-
ment. and on receiving the sent snce at
