A DECREE GRANTED.
For More Than a Hundred Thousand
in the Benton Circuit Court !,

The hundred thousand dollar
lawsuit was tried in the circuit
court Monday, and decree was
rendered for the plaintiff. The
Judgment is for SOL. 3oI, besides
the court costs.
The case was that of the Coast
Land & Livestock Company ver-
sus the Oregon Pacific Colonization
Company. The former sold de-
PENDANTS what is known as the Coe
lands and the lands of the Oregon
Agricultural Company limited.
aggregating something like oo,o
acres. The purchasers, besides a
cash payment, the amount of which
is not known. gave two notes of
$4,000 each, one of $4,000 and
one of $4,000. Two of the notes
were payable on the 18th of last
November and the other two next
August, and all were secured by
mortgage on the lands. The pur-
chasers defaultedlin the payments
and also in payment of the taxes
which it was agreed they should
pay.
The hearing of the case occupied
but short time The defendants
made no appearance in court, and a
decree was rendered in accordance
with the prayer of the plaintiffs.
It is said that the stockholders of
the Oregon Pacific Colonization got
into squabble among themselves,
and that to this was largely due
their failure to complete the pur-
chase. There is talk to the effect
that the matter may yet be COM
promised.

THE BALD-HEADED HORNETS.

From Other Days.

1t was mean OF them-mean as
could be. 1t happened four years
or more ago. Ralph Davisson, R.
E. Gibson and F. L. Miller were
out deer hunting. They were fol-
lowing trail in the mountain
fastnesses somewhere, no matter
where. Davisson and Gibson were
ahead. and Miller was a consider
able distance in the rear, plotting
an old mare. The advance guard
encountered a huge nest of bald
hornets, that hung suspended, ex-
actly over the trail. The hornets
were OF the great big. virulent kind,
from which the sting is almost
enough to knock man down.
The advance guard stopped at
the hornets nest and held coun-
Gil of war. The devil sometimes
possesses deer hunters, and he ap-
parently got hands on the advance
guard on this occasion. 1t was
determined to stir up the hornets,
SO they would be in good fighting
trim about the time the rear guard
happened along. That done, the
advance guard from a considerable
distance ahead awaited develop
ments.
Whoa, whoa, whoa!' was the
terrified yell that soon fell on their
ears. Whoa, Betsy; whoa, whoa" !"
came again from the depths of the
forest and with it came the crashing
of brush and the breaking of forest
limbs and branches as the good
mare fed through the thickets from
the pursuing hornets.
When the rear guard aVived at
GIMP it was still IN the ring, but
badly dis6gured. The old mare
had wells and Jumps all over her
from the attack of the hornets.
Miller's face had patches and BAN
dages all over it and Brother Miller
as he travelled along, was indus
triously chewing tobacco and ap-
plying it to the mu1titudinous stung
spots. He didn't know then, how
he was led into the ambuscade. It
was year or SO afterward before
his companions mustered up cour-
age sufficient to let him into the
secret.

the sum Benton must pay into the
state treasury for school purposes to
$15. .516; or about $4,000 more than
was paid this year. The sum that
Benton citizens pay for the common
schools, not counting special levies
for school purposes, is but a few
thousand short Of what it costs to
run the county. The usual expense
for the latter is about twenty three
thousand dollars.
Mr.. Broders, one of the owners Of
the German coach stallion, Excellenz,
brought the animal over from Albany
Saturday and gave our horsemen and
others q much desired opportunity of
seeing him. He truly is a fine-looking
horse, and bears the marks or brands
which it is the practice Of the German
government to place on every stallion
In its realm as a guarantee of his
quality. In Germany the government
owns the stations, with the view of
regulating se-breeding In large
measure Tt is desirable to improve
horses for various purposes, of course,
but the main purpose of the German
government in controlling horse
breeding to the extent which it does is
on account Of its close relation to mil.
itary affairs. The government wishes
to see that a desirable and uniform
class of horses may be available for
military work. ExcelleDz will be on
exhibition again at the brick stable In
Corvallis next Saturday afternoon.

GRAFTON QUESTION AT

Nearly eight pages Of the October
issue Of the Southern Farm Maya
zine of Baltimore devoted to let
tiers from officials of Southern and
Southwestern railroads engaged in
the practical task Of attracting
white settlers are striking illustra-
tons of the widespread interest in
Southern immigration. The inter-

plement is in the quickening actiyi-
ties in many parts of the South to
make advantages known and to
welcome the newcomers.
OF special interest in this con-
nection is an article in the same
issue of the Magazine by Mr..
Thurston II. Allen of Florence,
Ala, who presents the detailed
figures'o the experience OF German
settlers in Alabama with several
kinds crops. This thrifty class de-
ponds largely upon itself, but
others look to the negroes as help
ers in their farming operations.
Much misrepresentation about the
capabilities of the negroes as farm
laborers has been created by agita-
tors. Mr.. Thomas 2. Grasty con-
tributes some sensible advice ON
this point, to the effect that the
farm is frst-class school for the
proper education Of the negro, and
he urges that meanwhile Southern

A DIFFICULT
OPERATION
Mouth Opened After

and several assistants performed
a very difficult and it is believed
successful operation upon Miss
Louise Daugherty, of Denton,
Texas, a niece of Mr.. and Mrs.
D. J. Eddleman. 1t was what
is known as Esmarch's opera
ton for ankylosis Of the jaw,
and so far as known there has
been but one similar operation
in this country and that per-
formed by DIR. Fite some years
ago.
About six years ago Miss
Daugherty had severe fever and
later as a result her jaws bs-
came set and since that time she
has been unable to open her
mouth at all and for six years
her tongue had not passed be-
tween her teeth. 1t became
necessary to remove two of her
teeth in order for her to take
nourishment. She was told by
eminent specialists at Ft. Worth
and Dallas that the case was an
incurable one, and in fact two
previous operations had been
unsuccessful. From various
causes, the flesh on the jaw eff
fected had been eaten away and
the young girl presented a very
pitiable appearance. Her pa
rents brought her here. DR.. Fite
was consulted and agreed to
perform the operation. 1t was
done Friday at the home of the
girls aunt, Mrs. D. ]. Eddie
man, and was highly satisfac-
tory. The young lady's mouth
was opened one inch and next
morning she was able to use her
tongue freely. Three teeth that
had become decayed were re-
moved and later a large piece
of skin will be removed from
her neck and shoulder and will
be grated into the cheek. Both
the surgeons and the young
lady feel that the operation has
been a success and that in a
short time she will be complete
} ly recovered.
This is an operation that is
: considered one of the most diff
cult in the lists of surgery and
has seldom been attempted out
side the larger cities. The op
Grafton takes its name from a
famous surgeon named Esmarch
who was first to successfully
j. perform it.
