Australian Shepherds Have odd
Ways of Marking Time.
The boundary riders Of the great
Australian sheep ranches have each a
district to look after, in which one
must keep the wire ices ia repair
and see that the 81 q come to no
harm 1t Is a hard and lonely life, liv-
ing, as each boundary rider does, quite
alone in the wilderness. A writer tells
OF some Of the curious ways III which
these solitary men keep count Of the
days.
One old man who had lived in the
back country for thirty years used two
jam tins and seven pebbles One tin
was marked, "This week, and the 9th
er last week" ~ @ lday morning
he would take p ie from "Last
week" and drop il a(o This week."
and each subsequent morning till "This
week" had swallowed the seven. They
were returned to Last week. and the
old fellow knew that another Sunday
had passed.
Another man had tried and failed
with several plans At last he hit on
new idea. lie made big damper (cake
of -four and water) on Sunday night
and marked it into seven sections,
each section being a days allowance,
SO that every time he picked up the
damper the grocer would remind him
of the day. Unfortunately one Tues
day there came visitor with d raven
Gus appetite. The host stinted him
self that the hungry one might be sat
isfied with the days section But he
wasn't. With anxious eyes the host
saw the knife clearing the boundary
line and the hungry man ruthlessly
carving into his almanac. At last he
could stand it no longer
"Stop, stopw he cried as he grabbed
the damper and glared at it.
"There,'' he said you've eaten Toos-
day and WEEKDAY, and now yer wanter
slice the best o. the mornin' o. Thurs
day, an / won't know the day O the

KORTES
AN OLD
TIMER

John Kortes who is now languishing
in the county bastile, charged with the
burglary of Peter Fuchs, at Mount
Angel, has been discovered to be Fried
Neihold, Russian exile, who broke Jail
in this county April 10, 1894, when John
Knight was sheriff. When he was COM
mitted December 9TH Sheriff Culver
and Deputy Mimic recognized the un'
mistakable marks of a professional on
him, and began searching their
"rogues' gallery" for some one an
swering his description, and hit upon
the page which offered reward Of
$50 for one Neihold, who escaped from
Marion county in 1894, by digging out
through the brick wall under the win.
dow in the northeast corner of the jail.
When questioned Kortes at first de-
MED that he was the man, but, upon
being tripped up in one or two Of his
statements by the officers, he finally
admitted that he was Neihold, and
that he went to Boone's Ferry on his
escape, where he worked all the sum
mer Of 1894, then he tried to make the
sheriff believe that he went TO Alaska,
but this story was too "thin" for the
officers to believe for both have been
in that country, and when they ques
toned him about certain things there
he was unable to give satisfactory re-
plies. 1t is thought that he has been
in this vicinity most of the time, for it
is an assured fact that he was in Mt
Angel nine months ago, and burglar
lied the home Of Barney Oswald, for
among his possessions were found part
of the articles stolen at that time.
When captured Kortes, or Neihold, was
well equipped to follow his trade, hav-
ing skeleton keys, one Of which was
made from a button hook, after the
most approved professional manner,
dark lantern and nippers. The prison
er is between so and so years of age.
He now gives the age Of 81, but when
under arrest 10 years ago claimed to
be only 81.

FOUR
BIRDS in
COURT

There were four prisoners up before
Judge Judah this morning in the police
court. F. r. Ward was first called for
peddling without a license, and was
given 80 minutes in which to leave the
city, followed by his partner, w. A.
Cornish, who was treated in like
manner. These young men were selling
silver polish (D to the unsuspecting,
but the judge thought if they'd polish
the railroad track for awhile that it
would be just as well for the commu-
nifty, and called the next case, which
proved to be William Barnes, charged
with disorderly conduct. Willie said
that he was so timid, that when the of
ficers lined him up with 20 others that
they were going to put to bed, that he
became frightened, and lost all control
of his legs, and they carried him down
a back street, but the officers must
have been troubled the same way, for
they landed him in limbo, and he is now
waiting for the night men 10 arise from
their days slumbers and tell their side
of the story.
William Henry was the last one up,
and he hardly waited for the judge to
finish telling him that he was charged
stealing a pair of boots and other wear
ing apparel from the rear of the Center
saloon, before he shouted "guilty. "
This was not William the seconds first
offense, for he is the same man who
tried to get a corner on all the poultry
in Polk county last summer, and would
have succeeded had he not became SO
tired that he couldn't carry any more
of the fowls across the bridge, and so
he will have the pleasure of remaining
in out of the rain, under the care of
Culver, for the next go days.

SKTPTON
GIVES UP
CONTEST

James L. Skipton has issued signed
statement, withdrawing from the con.
test which he was making against
Thos. E. Cornelius for the Office Of city
marshal. This is in line with the sug.
gestions of The Journal Immediately
after the election, and thus ends the
contention. The letter is as follows:
To the Citizens of Salem:
I desire to express my most sincere
and profound thanks to the loyal
friends, of all shades of political be.
lief, who have supported and encour-
aged me in the contest for the office
of city marshal, and in the effort to en-.
force and respect the laws of the city
governing qualification for office.
And now, while my friends and my
self have surrendered no part of our
opinion or belief as to the disqualified
tion of Mr.. Cornelius to hold the Office
under our charter, and while we fully
believe that the courts Of our state
would sustain our contest, yet wish to
say that circumstances have arisen
which cause me to believe that the in.
terests Of harmony, good will and local
unity will be best subserved by an
abandonment of the proposed contest,
and sinking of my personal claims.
expect to live in Salem, and re-
main permanent part of its progress
and to this end I hope to maintain q
friendship with all the people, and tc
merit their good will and confidence
Again thanking the people Of the city
for many courtesies, l remain
Respectfully,
