COW THIEF NOT DECENT
Judge Preston Forced to Decide
A Peculiar Point.

Can a woman convicted Of selling
another persons COW and appropriate
ing the proceeds, all surreptitiously,
be a decent person?
Judge Preston thinks not, and for
this eason made a change in the read
ing Of the petition to place little Ruth
B. Downing in the Soldiers Orphans
Home in Davenport. Judge Preston
was sitting as juvenile court and
committed the little girl o that in
stitution.
The petition was made out by Mrs.
Downing's attorney and stated that
the girl was destitute and the daugh-
ter Of a decent person, Mrs. Nellie
Downing. To this the court took ex.
ception and laid down the proposition
that a woman convicted in fair trial
OF such a crime rs Mrs. Downing could
not be a decent person.
Little Ruth then was committed as
a neglected child.
She took a last farewell with her
mother and left the court room in
charge of probation officer. Mrs. Theo.
Richmond, with whom she will re.
main unit. committed to the Home.

He put the revolver In his oYercoat

RID COUNTY OF JOINTS
Such is the Intention of Prosecuting
Attorney Mccoy.

County Attorney John Mccoy is go,
ing after the booze joints in Mahaska
county. Five injunction cases to re,
strain parties from the illegal sale OF
liquor nave been filed in the district
court today. The parties are people
familiar to the justice courts and the
injunction cases are built up around
the searches and raids of Constables
Andrews and Mastin.
Those against whom injunctions are
asked are Anthony Flora and wife, OF
Bolton, Frank Drew, of Fremont, Gil
bert Mather, Of White City, John Car
nego, of Evans, and John and Eliza
beth Price, who own the building oc-
cupied by Carnego; and Tom Cave
naugh, of that place, with Pat Cave
naugh, who owns the building occu-
pied by Thomas.
The plan of the county attorney is
to secure injunctions and the violation
mean a more severe penalty If the
joint keepers persist after the court
has ordered them to respect the liquor
law.

tacIes and Eye Glasses patented in
England 1916. The well known Ar
mold Optical Co., of London, has APP
pointed DIR. Mayne Arnold, OF Oska-
loosa, as agent for their celebrated
Diamond Spectacles and Eye Glasses,
and also for their Diamond Non
Changeable S~pectacles and Eye
Glasses. These glasses are the great
est invention ever made in spectacles.
BY an improved construction Of the
lens a person purchasing a pair Of
these Interchangeable glasses never
has to change these glasses from the
eyes. Every pair purchased is guar
anteed SO that If they ever leave the
ayes Ono matter how rusted or
scratched the lenses are), DR.. Mayne
Arnold will furnish the party with a
new pair of glasses free Of charge.
DR.. Mayne Arnold has a full assert
ment and invites all who wish to sat,
isfy themselves of the great superior
ity Of these glasses over any and all
others now in use to call and examine
the same at any time at the store Of
DR.. Mayne Arnold, who is the only ex-
elusive scientific optician and eye
| sight specialist in Oskaloosa.
To prove the wonderful and lasting
qualities Of the Diamond Mont Change
able Glasses, DR.. Arnold appends a
letter from six old and well known
| citizens of Rushville, ILL.,, who have
worn the Professors glasses thirty
years without change. Rushville is a
iourishing city, the county seat of
Schuyler county, Illinois, situated on
the c., B. & @, r. R., and the signers
of the following are among Rushville's
prominent people:
"Rushville, Ill. We, the u~ndersign-
ed residents Of Rushville, ILL.,, having
tried many different kinds Of glasses
take pleasure in stating that Prof.
Mayne Arnold supplied US with
glasses Interchangeable more than
thirty years ago. Also that they have
given US excellent satisfaction ever
since without change, and we believe
no other kind is as good. 1t is our
| opinion that for clearness of vision,
sharp ~delineation Of objects, painless
and comfortable sight, together with
their lasting properties, Professor Ar
nold's glasses excel all others.-W. c.

mond Interchangeable Glasses to the
eyes Of J. F. Boal, M. D., more than
forty years ago. DR.. Boal was q sue
cessful physician and grandfather of

Tom Nye After Bad Boys.

The Oregonian, speaking OF Tom
Nye's hypnotic performances, says
Professor Thomas Galway Nye, who.
with NArthur Laing is TO give three
performances at the Empire theater,
beginning Friday night, states posi-
lively that criminally inclined boys
and girls can be cured by hypnotic
suggestion and mental science. This
Is something which scientists have
been quarreling over for half a CEN
tury. These learned scholars are
loath to believe this, but the feats
that Professor Nye has performed.
the marvellous cures ne has wrought
through his methods of mental sug-
gestion. at last are compelling these
men to acknowledge that Professor
Nye can restore distorted brain to
a normal condition. During his per-
formances at the Empire Professor
Nye will compel his subjects to do
ludicrous things at his command, and
he will demonstrate to the most skep-
tical mind that he has a power not
given to the ordinary hypnotist.

That winter irrigation pays, even
in the rain belt of the Grand Ronde
valley. has been demonstrated beyond
any doubt by the members OF the
Amalgamated Sugar company, at La
Grande.
F. 5. Bramwell, manager of beet
fields for the La Grande sugar fac
tory. has written Colonel r. c. Jud-
son. industrial agent of the o. Il. &
N. the following almost sensational
letter, giving actual results of win
ter irrigation on a sandy tract near
the city of La Grande.
The land in question is light. sandy
soil, exactly like thousands of acres
in the Butter creek district, which can
be flooded in winter while not drop
of water is available for it in the
summer season.
This letter is worthy of deep study
and consideration by Butter Creek
farmers who have land that is not
yet seeded to alfalfa. The result of
beet raising on arid land, as given
htIts biloulu encourage lHt peOplt OI
this county to grow beets until a fac
tory is built here for them. The right
kind of an effort will bring the fac
tory here. Mr.. Bramwells letter is
as follows:
La Grande, Or. Jan. 8, 05.
Col r. c. Judson, Portland, Or.
My Dear Colonel:-I beg to give
you the information asked for as to
my experiments in the matter of
'winter irrigation" and 1t gives me
great pleasure to do this for the rea-
son that l am able to give you such
glowing reports.
Two winters ago l found a farm
that to me seemed ideal beet land,
but for which no water or at least
very little water could be had except
ing during the early spring. l put
a man on this farm (Which lies about
three miles southeast from this city,
and We partially filled the soil with
water, but my man kept at me that
was drowning" the land and that
the beets would fail to make.
! told him that it might be we
would loose little of the low lands
