DESPAIR DRIVES
TO DOUBLE DEATH
Suicide and Murder or a Double Sui.
cide.l

Portland, Ore, Nov. IA special
dispatch to the Evening Telegram
from Newberg, Ore, reports the tragic
death at that place of Carl Hurford
and his wife, a bride of six weeks
Whether the tragedy was one of muir
der and suicide or double suicide may
never be known. Hurford had been
SICK for several days. Today his wife
visited the mandatory where her
husband was employed seeking infor-
nation as to whether he would be re-
employed on regaining his health. She
was told that her husbands position
would be saved for him, but she seem
ed not to be treasured and appeared
very agitated. 1t was noticed that she
kept her hand under her cape during
the interview, as if hiding something.
Shortly after she returned home a.
shot was heard and Mrs. Hurford was
heard calling for help. Two neighbors
responded, but as they approached the
house, a second and third shot were
heard. The body of Mrs. Hurford was
found lying on the bed and her hus-
bands body, with a gaping wound in
the forehead, lay on the floor, both
having died instantly
There are two theories, one that the
woman shot her husband and then be-
coming frightened, called for help. af-
ter which she killed herself. Another
theory, however. is that the husband
Killed himself and that his wife, after
calling for help in her frenzy of fright
and anguish. picked up the revolver
and sent bullet crashing through her
own head.
The revolver was found by her side.
No powder marks are, visible around
thes wounded husbands forehead. Hur-
ford came here with his mother and
brother from Missouri about a year
ago. Mrs. Hurford came from Mis-
souri, to marry her husband about two
months ago.

science of the logical relationship of

Theodore Hapke, promoter of the
project which is to result in the re-
construction of the beet sugar factory
at Glendale by the Eastern Sugar
company, arrived in the city yesterday
morning and spent the day attending
to matters in connection with the COM
pany in which he is interested. Early
in the morning he was joined at the
Hotel Adams by Lafayette Meyers, his
representative, who has been in the
valley for several weeks, and together
they drove to Glendale. They returned
in the afternoon and Mr. Hapke spent
several hours in consultation with
Judge c. f. Ainsworth, whom he has
retained. a s counsel. The first work to
be done is the Strengthening out of the
title to the land on which the beet
sugar factory is located and this work
will be completed today
"Once the title to the land is made
satisfactory to me-" said Mr. Hapke,
at his hotel last evening 81 will begin
arranging for the contractors to begin
their work. Bids will be called for.
and contracts shortly afterwards
awarded. The brick work will be rush
ed with all possible haste, and by the
first Of February the machinery win
have been installed. If local contract
ors can possibly be secured they will
be given the contract for the construc-
ton of the factory; otherwise the con-
tract will go to Los Angeles.

raising of sugar beets who will have

l made an effort to come to Phoenix
several days ago, but there were many
things to adjust before l could
straighten out the affairs of the old
receivership. 1 think, however, that we
will experience no delay now. After
the holidays L will return with my
family to Glendale and take up my
home at that point Ny visit here at
this time will be of about ten days
duration.
There is one piece of good news for
the people of the valley that l bring
with me. When the sugar beet factory
is in operation there will be a large
colony of Wisconsin people come to
the Salt River valley to live. Last
year l built a factory at GAINESVILLE,
Wis. and l am now engaged in build
ing a factory at Madison. The price
of land here appeals to the people in
Wisconsin, and when / left there many
expressed themselves as being desir-
Gus of moving to Arizona when the
factory gets in operation"
In personal appearance Mr.. Hapke
is tall and of heavy builr. He walks
with a quick step and gives the
appearance of having led a very busy
life. He is very courteous in his con-
versation, but speaks in a quick, de-

PRIEST AND PRESIDENT.

A timely article on Our Mix-up in
Santa Domingo" by Eugene p. Lyle,
Jr.. is in the October Worlds Work.
Mr. Lyle gives this description OF
President Morales:
One chance of salvation seems to be
personified in the president. He knew
that his country was not really bank
rupt. 1t needed only administration.
He asked the United States to be his
country's receiver This was its cure.

said one man to me. you can talk
to him straight, and he is as direct
with you. And you can depend on his
doing what he says he will do. 1 be-
lieve that he is honestly trying to pull
his country out of the hole
This may be set down as a compos-
lite opinion from most Americans who
have spent only a few days in Santo
Domingo a business man mar
veled at his insight and quick
ness to detect flaw in a

the standard of the West Indies, his
integrity ranks high. That is. fair
minded ones do not think him capable
of Doodle. But they do not maintain
that, should he have to flee over night,
he would not govern himself accord
ingly, were there anything to pocket.
A newspaper correspondent told me
that Morales had sent for him and di-
Jected that he cable an entirely false
account of what was then happening,
for the effect it might have in the
United States. He was much sur
prised when the correspondent explain
ed that it could not be done, even as a
courtesy. One foreigner who knows
him well, described him as vain and
shallow. There are tales of his wild
gallantry as a priest, but those who
have seen him in his home are won to
him for the affection which he shows
to children. The eulogists hold that he
is too strong to be the tool of politi-
clans. Legality, they say is the
watchword of his policy. The morn

THE BUSINESS OF THE DAY.

Representative Champ Clark tells of
an amusing story in connection with
the Inauguration of Thomas L. Crit
tenden as governor of Missouri a GER
mony attended with more frills than
any other in the state since the civil
war.
According to Mr. Clark, there were
on this occasion military organiza-
tions and bands galore, and special
carloads of people came from Kansas
City and st. Louis to witness the pa
geant. Captain Hawley, of st. Louis.
was grand marshal of the day.
Brockmeyer, a quaint
character was presiding over the SEN
ate; and as he waited for notice of the
time for the senate to proceed to the
hall of the house of representatives,
where the two bodies in joint session
were to receive the new governor, he
lolled back in his chair on the presi-
dents stand and smoked a big corn
cob pipe with the utmost nonchalance.
The senate Hobbies were crowded,
and senators were in their seats on
the tiptoe of expectancy, for the
strains Of martial music could be
heard from all directions. AT this
Juncture figure in q Offering and
brilliant uniform pushed through the
crowd and marched half way up the
aisle. This was Marshal of the Day
Hawley. Drawing mis- sword he made
a profound military salute and an
nounced:
'Mr. President, the governor of Mis-
souri, and his staff now approach"
Without removing his pipe from his
mouth, Lieutenant-Go Governor Brock

PERSIAN POVERTY.
The Western Part of the Kingdom in
Suffering.

New York, Nov. THE condition OF
the people of western Persia is report
ed to be most serious by the Rev. R.
M. Labaree, a Presbyterian missionary
at Urumia, who has been commission
ed by his mission station to appeal to
Americans for aid. His statement of
the situation has just been received at
the office of the Presbyterian board of
foreign missions and is, in part as fol-
lows:
During the fall of 1904 unreasonable
rains almost destroyed the raisin crop,
which Is a chief source of income for
the people. The same rains ruined
much of the wheat upon the threshing
floors, so that before the winter was
over its price had increased to exor-
bitant rates, the people being all the
less able to pay because of their other
losses. At the same time, largely ow-
ing to the RussO-Japanese war. other
necessities of life advanced greatly In
consequence the spring found this part
of Persia in an impoverished condition,
many formerly well to do being heavily
in debt, while the poorer classes had
sold most of their belongings to support
life until. the next harvest. All kept
up hope because the rains of the
springtime gave promise of abundant
harvests..
An insect unknown before here has
been at work, and wheatfields that
looked most fair to the eye have yield
ed almost nothing, and at the season
when grain reaches its lowest price of
the year. the price was higher than the
usual winter rates. Each month sees
an advance of price, and 1 need not
describe what this means to a Door
impoverished people. Consider that
bread Is the chief staple Of food in this
country. and that already men are pay
ing the income of a month for one load
OF wheat. and that the average family
needs at least ten loads annually. How
Will men clothe their families and buy
other necessities? The steady increase
or prices means starvation to many, it
will mean misery to countless others.

look forward to the suffering that al

TAKES TIME.
Some Years Getting There and What
Happened Then.

The poison in coffee does not always
work it's mischief swiftly-sometimes
it fastens its hold upon the victim by
slow degrees that are not noticeable
for a while But once it begins, the day
will surely come when the coffee
drinker will be up against it" and
must have relief.
A lady writes from California:
1--WE were great coffee drinkers in
our home, using it at every meal and
frequently drinking it in the evening
with friends, and it was not until after
the lapse of years that we began to
realize that it was doing us harm.
my symptoms were not so bad. al
though my health suffered in many
minor ways. but my husband became
afflicted with q most painful stomach
trouble. He could not assimilate his
food properly and everything he ate
gave him great distress. We were slow
to suspect the truth, but we now see
that it was caused by the use of cof-
fee.
"At last he determined to quit using
coffee altogether, and like a good wife
did so, too. We worried along for a
month without any hot table beverage.
till one day friend happened to say
ia me L am using Postum Food Coffee
now. and feel SO much better for it,
told her that we had tried it and did
not care for it, and she said it must
have been because it wasn't properly
prepared. So / bought a package and
prepared it strictly according to direc-
tons. We were astonished and delight
ed at tha result.
1--WE have been using Postum Cof-
fee for year, now, and l rejoice to be
able to tell you that it has cured my
husband of his dyspepsia. This is a
statement that does not seem to have
the significance it ought to have. If
could make you understand how in
tense his sufferings used to be. you
would realize what a deliverance Pos
tum wrought for him.
MY own health has also greatly i'm
proved and the credit for all must be
given to Postum Name given by

"THE VOCABULARY CORPS

ellison Willets tells in the October
Worlds Work, what it means to earn
ones living by writing.
A free lance" is an unsalaried
writer, whether he be journalistic
hack or another Victor Hugo. Free
lance" means frse to starve if one
does not feel like working; free to
smoke an execrable pipe in ones own
workshop; free to walk in the woods a
day or a week; free to rove. the earth
the rover paying his bills out of an
income derived from words / know of
a honeymoon on the Mediterranean,
three expensive. happy months, paid
for out of the vocabulary fund. Above
all, free lance" means to go and to
write where every prospect pleases.
There was a furnished house for
the season in a Garden of Eden, in
ST. Johns Wood, London, in spring.
and one winter in the Rivera there
was a stone nest in a paradise Of
palms. What workshops can be paid
for at a cent and half a word! Once
L received an order for a series of arti
cles that would require all June and
July to write. To Montauk, then, on
the outer reach of Long Island, l took
my notes and my typewriter There
was good inn that completed the
idealism of Montauk as a writing place
it was the tiny life-saving station on
the great white beach. That little
station became my workshop, for it
was not used in summer by the life
savers. 1t stood so close to the ocean
that sometimes the Atlantic washed
my doorstep. And at noon, sitting on
drift logs on the sands, lunched from
full dinner pail and drank coffee
from its tim top-a day laborer making
living by writing where man had not
marked the earth with ruin.
The free lance" has honors thrust
upon him. A collector of gems sent
me a box of uncut opals, amethysts
and sapphirets. 1 had written about
his collection in a brief paragraph.
Downey, of London, "Photograp to
the King" charged me nothing for
dozens of photographs of myself, for
l had written a word about his pic

the precious acquaintance, the golden
friendships, that count in this living
