4 PLEASANT AFTERNOON.


The charming reception given TO
the Baptist Ladies Aid Society by
their president Mrs. r. B. Stapleton
at her home Friday afternoon from
TO 4 O'Clock, was in every way most
enjoyable affair. Dainty refresh
ments We're served, after which Miss
Elizabeth Hughes, Methodist mis-
sionary to China. at home for a much
needed rest, gave most delightful
spiritual talk on THE Necessity of
Prayer in the Mission Work . All
present deemed it a special privi-
lege to hear Miss Hughes and appre-
ciated her kindness in responding so
cheerfully to their request for a talk.
All felt drawn to her and must of
necessity feel keener interest in
missionaries hereafter because Of her
helpful words. The time sped all
too quickly. 1t is privilege to be a
guest in so hospitable home. After
such a helpful stimulus the ladies
hope for full meeting Monday after
noon at O'Clock, and will gladly
welcome all who may come

MURDERERS BURY
BODY OF VICTIM
Build Fire Over Grave
in Hope Of Conceal
ing Crime.
Bullet Wound Behind Left
Ear Discloses the Cause
of Death.
Special Dispatch to The CAN.

PORTLAND, Or, Sept. ia Prime
Vile, Oregon, special to-day says: 8. P
Donkle, an old settler at the Pelton place,
on the Deschutes River, was murdered
some days ago and his body buried near
his home by the person or persons guilty
OF the crime. The body which was ex-
humed by the Sheriff and Coroner Of
Crook County. showed that death was
due to pistol wound behind the left ear.
In order to conceal the crime the MUIR
derers had built a big fire over the grave.
The dead mans money was gone, but his
watch was on his person. Mystery sur
rounds the case. From the meager de
tails now obtainable, Donkle and his son
were camped on the bank of the river and
were engaged in putting up hay on the
James Pelton ranch. The son left ten
days ago on cattle roundup and when
he returned Monday learned that his
father had disappeared. Suspecting foul
play he started search, but no trace of
the missing man could be found for some
time Finally the son found where the
earth had apparently been disturbed and
a fire built over the mound to divert at
tention. Digging down several feet at
this point a boot was uncovered and it
was found to be on the foot of the miss
Ing man.

CALVIN s DEATH
CAUSES INQUIRY
Authorities Suspect He
Was the Victim Of
Foul Play.
Body Is Exhumed and Stom-
ach Will Be Subjected to
an Analysis.

CARSON CITY, New. Sept. 1s.-District
Attorney Moody and Sheriff Walher of
Nevada County, California, arrived in this
city to-day to disinter the body of Charles
Calvin, who died at Hobart Mills some
months ago. The purpose of the exhum-
ing Is to examine the body and determine
If poison was administered to Calvin DR..
Shoemaker Of Truckee performed the
work of removing the stomach and intes-
tines from the body, and an examination
for poison will be made by chemist In
San Francisco. The party left this even
ing for California with the portion Of the
remains that they desired.
Calvin died under peculiar circum-
stances. DR.. Johnson of Hobart Mills,
the place where Calvin died, was the at
tending physician, and II is said he had
been paying secret attention to Mrs. CAL
vim before the death of her husband. The
fact that Calvin was sick but a few days
and was attended by DR.. Johnson created
more or less suspicion Shortly after the
death of Calvin, Mrs. Calvin and DR..
Johnson left the place and have been re-
ported as living in San Francisco. DR..
johnson was married to the daughter of
District Judge Jones of this State. Before
he left her, it is said, he administered a
beating to her and told her to go home
to her mother. Judge Jones on hearing
of the Calvin case came to this city and
started the law in motion to bring the
doctor and Mrs. Calvin to time. The
Judge has announced that he will probe
the matter to the bottom, and it is be-
heved that he is instrumental in bringing
about the present action.
All of the parties are we'll known in this
city, where Mrs. Calvin was raised. She
left her son, a boy of years, to be pro-
vided for in this city before her departure
The entire community is agog over the
suspicious circumstances Of the entire
affair.

IS A SUCCESS

Report at Meeting
Of Trustees.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SAN JOSE, Sept. 1S.-The State Nor
NAL School Trustees met here yesterday,
Trustees Addison, Mastick, Jacobs, Dow
and Babb and State Superintendent Kirk
and President Daley being present.
The board decided to contract with the
Standard Oil Company for 1000 barrels of
oil for heating the school at rs cents per
barrel. DR.. Dow, one of the local Trus-
tees, had already made arrangements with
the Associated Oil Company for the same
quantity at 81 cents per barrel The board
unanimously repudiated the arrangement
made by Trustee Dow and accepted the
Standard Company's offer.
The salary of Miss Belle Mackenzie
mead or the kindergarten department, was

first term. He recommended that here
after the session of the summer school
be six weeks instead of ten. The recon-
mendation was adopted

be made to elect Professor c. w. Childs,
former principal of the Normal School,
vice principal. Childs was deposed by
Governor Budd. Professor w. w Will
son is at present vice principal. Childs

SAN DIEGO, Sept B-The long-drawn-

one side and Inspector Walker and the
Board of Health on the other is growing
more bitter and now threatens to draw
the Federated Trades into the contro-
versy. The contest has already resulted
in one strike and it is probable that be-
fore peace is restored a general strike
may be declared that will tie up all labor
in the city. The plumbers have retained
counsel and have drawn up an ordinance
which will be presented to the City Coun-
ell, providing that the Office of inspector
shall be filled by an experienced plumber.
