PENDLETON SEWER SYSTEM.
Almost Mile of the System Com
pieted Up to Date.

PendletOn.-WOrk on the new sew
erage system, now being installed in
the city of Pendleton, is progressing
satisfactorily under the supervision
of G. H. Sutherland, the Walla Walla
contractor. Three-quarters of a mile
has been completed up to date, leav-
ing a trifle more than seven miles of
sewer pipes to be laid by the first Of
November, the date when the system
is to be turned over, completed, to the
city c. uCC.l. Sufficient material is
at hand at the present time for the
number of workmen employed, and
every means is being used to hasten
the work while the weather is dry and
favorable Within month the force,
according to Mr.. Sutherland, will be
materially increased as it is his in
tention to complete the work before
November if it is uoesiHle to do SO.
The methods tmK.oyed in laying
the sewers are the same as those
used in the construction of the Walla
Walla system which, according to eX-
Derts. is as good as that owned by
any city on the coast. Councilman
Frank CloptOn, chairman of the sewer
committe, has daily inspected the
work, and is satisfied.
Just prior to the completion Of the
system the city council proposes to
pass an ordinance, the purport OF
which is to compel every property
holder to connect properly with the
sewer system within a reasonable
length of time While the city can
not compel, according to law, prop
Derty owners to connect with the sew
er. the council believes it sees the
way clear from meeting with any diff
| ficulty in that respect, and cOnse-
quently all owners Of city property
| who may show a disposition to ne
| glect their sanitary duties cannot
possibly escape The council will
have the right to condemn property
within a specified length of time, and
| if owners then do not comply with
| the ordinance, the city will Itself
| complete the necessary connections
at the expense of the property own
| ers It is not believed. however, that
| difficulty will be encountered, anG
within a year from the time the sys
| tenn is completed it is expected that
| every residence will have a sanitary
| outlet to the sewer.
The old sewers, laid a number Of
| years ago by private subscription
will be removed entirely and will be
| replaced by the new. The clay tile
used in construction Of the sewer
is manufactured on the sound and is
considered the best obtainable in the
| west.

GEN. O'BRIEN MAY TRAVEL
But Outstanding Money Must Be
Paid Into Court

Olympia.-Judge Linn has entered
an order in the superior court here
requiring General R. G. O'Brien. as
administrator of the estate Of Sam
uel Scott, to pay into the registry of
the court by Friday. August 7, the
S1109 outstanding to the interest of
Moses Scott, the only heir, whose
share has not yet been turned over
to him. Judge Linn holds that the
withdrawal of S61S balance to the
funds by the administrator from the
Olympia bank, where they were de-
posted, was not unlawful, but to re-
move all doubts as to the security Of
the funds he orders the estate closed
and the money paid over.
General O'Brien appeared in court
and alleged that his proposed trip to
san Francisco, which was cut off by
the authorities, was in the interest Of
Moses Scott, whom he belives to be
residing in Arizona. The old sureties
insisted that the estate should be
closed before the administrator left
town, but the Judge denied this order.
placing no restriction upon General
OBrien. A new bond was furnished
by the administrator and this has been
approved as additional security.

Seattle Coroner Has Murder Mystery

Seattle-Evidence that strongly
tends to prove murder was discover
ed when an autopsy was held on the
body of E. A. Levan, of Sunnydale.
What appears to be a fracture was
found near the base of the skull, and
Coroner Roye is of the belief that it
was caused by blow from some
blunt instrument.
Levan's body, which was identified
by an acquaintance at the morgue
was found floating in the Dawamish
river last June, and was buried in the
potter's field. 1t was twice exhumed
before a positive identification was
made, the last disinterment being
made at the request Of friends who
had obtained information that caused
them to suspect that Levan had been
murdered by enemies who mad
threatened his life some time previ
Gus to his mysterious disappearance.

YOUTHFUL WRONGDOERS.
Olympia Has Twin Burglars Less
Than 7 Years of ACE.

Olympia-Chief of Police Taylor
has discovered that a number of pet
ty burglaries committed IN the
building of this city recently were the
work of the two Waldruff twins, aged
between and years, a brother and
sister, and children of woman who
makes a living By professional nurs-
ing. Several reports of petty thiev-
ing had been reported to the police,
it was not until this week that the
children were discovered. They had
entered the home of the Gabriel fam
lily, who reside on Adams street, be-
tween Fourteenth and Fifteenth and
taken some childrens' toys and col
lections of old coins. The children S
mother discovered the articles first
and the attention of the police was
called to the matter. Chief Taylor
administered a severe rebuke to the
youngsters and says if the occur
renee is repeated he will file COM
plant and attempt to have the child
rem sent to the reform school. He
secured from them the confession as
to the other thieving they had done.
The children are said to be partially
supported by the county.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local application as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inf1amed condition of the mucous I'm
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is infiamed you have a rump-
ling sound or imperfect hearing, and
unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its nor
NAL, condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out OF ten
are caused by Catarrh, which Is noun
ing but an inf1amed condition OF the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by

WERE MARRIED TWO MONTHS
Snohomish Young Couple Established
Record.

Record.
Everett.-A record in the marriage
and divorce line has undoubtedly
been established in SnohOmish
county, papers in divorce proceedings
being filed in just one day over two
months after the marriage vows had
been taken.
On May 81, this year, Barthold
Julius Focks swore TO love, cherish
and protect Ella Focks, his then wife,
while she also promised to be loving
and faithful wife, until death do us
part" but there seems to have been
a complete change Of sentiment since
that time and, according to the COM
plant filed, Mrs. Focks concluded on
July Is that she no longer wished to
live with her formerly beloved Bar
thold, for she then left him and has
since refused to return, notwithstand-
ing the earnest solicitations Of plain
tiff in the action.
The complaint and answer in the
action were filed with the clerk of
the court, the complaint stating that
there is utter incompatibility of tenn
permanent, AMI also alleging desertion
on July 10. The answer denies that
allegation as we'll as knowledge OF
ownership Of property by plaintiff
which is set forth in the complaint,
and which he asks be vested in him,
there being no community property.
After hearing the evidence in the
case, Judge Denney granted. the pray
er of plaintiff and he now stands di-
vorced from his erstwhile wife.
According to the testimony ad-
duced Focks met his wife while she
was visiting neighbors near his ranch,
and, being a bachelor and in need of
wife, he wOOed and won her. How
ever, country life soon proved unsat-
! isfactory to Mrs. Focks and she re-
| turned to Everett, refusing to &C
| back to her newly made home.
Mr.. Focks owns some property
aside from his ranch, all Of which is
given into his custody on the decree
| granted.

SPEEDY TRIAL
Alleged Murderer Ogesby Brouoh
Into Court Day Following
His Arrival

HIS Arrival.
Everett.-Detectives Smith and
Grafton have returned from McHenry
Miss, where they took Henry Oglesbv
a negro captured in this city. charged
with the murder of four Colored peo-
pie in that city.
There were 1000 persons in Nc
Henry to identify Oglesby," said De-
tective Smith. He was identified
within three hours after we arrived
and was placed on trial the following
day. He had two able attorneys. who
fought for a continuance, but it did
no good. The Judge ordered the trial
to proceed at once.
I'VE did not hear anything about
the various crimes which Oglesby is
said to have committed, though we
did hear about his numbering Stella
Madden. She was about Is years of
age and was working in the Oglesby
home. When she fought against his
approaches one night, he fired two
bullets into her body. The crime was
utterly cold-DloOded The people
down there are in such a mood over
it that they will lynch the fellow if
he is not hanged legally. We heard
in an indefinite way of his killing an
officer, who had arrested him while
gambling in a box car. That also
was a COl1-blOoded crime But the
people at McHenry are not thinking
much about any of his crimes except
that Of the killing of the young girl -
