Speaking of Punishment.

Last Saturday, John Fawver, a
farmer of Southern Benton, de-
serted his wife and children, and
eloped with 19-year-old Lille
Howard. They foated down the
Willamette river past Corvallis
in skiff so far as Salem, the
girl attired in mems clothes.
At Salem they were apprehended
and thither Sheriff Burnett, &C
companied by the girls grief
stricken father, went during the
fore part Of the week. Fawver
was held in Salem under $500.
bonds on the charge of adultery
and the girl returned home with
her father, Grin Howard, Of
Linn county. Commenting edi-
torially on the matter the Ore
gonian of Wednesday has the
following:
The sheriff of Benton county
has overhauled at Salem one
John Fawver, who abandoned
his wife and four children near
Monroe, a few days ago, taking
all the family funds and the 49,
year-old daughter of a neighhor-
ing rancher with him. The
father of the deluded girl bore
the sheriff company in his quest,
with intent to take the folly
stricken daughter back to her
home. It was we'll hat the pur-
suit was successful. Not that
the recreant husband and father
was worth pursuing, even upon
the basis Of the probable r turn
to the duty of supporting his
wife and children. He has left
duty and responsibility too far
behind to justify the hope that
they will overtake him, even
though the sheriff has arrested
his flight. But the common
sense of decency that he has
violated SO fagrantly will be APP
peased somewhat by the inflic-
ton of such punishment upon him
as the law provides.

an, it is charitable to hope that
paternal forgiveness will work in.

chief objects of solicitude in such

looking over the side of the cliff, saw their comrade lying on the rocks. a mass of bruises and cuts. He died be- fore aid could reach him. A coroner's s inquest will be held over McAIvey's body tomorrow. No one at the dam seems to know anything of McAlvey's past prior to his coming to Roosevelt. On March 2, while Osborne Richins. stream gauger, was taking measure ments of the flow of the river a heavy rock broke loose from the side of the hill and crushed one of the. ca bles of the little suspension bridge across the Salt at the dam site, where Mir Richins was working. There were four other men on the bridge at the time, and with the giving way fthe cable the bridge fell to the surface Of the river. which was running very fast at the time. Mills Van Wagenen, a son of the former postmaster at Globe who had been employed at Roosevelt for some time past, was swept of the bridge and carried down the river. He struggled hard to save himself but the current was so swift, and the fact that he was not a very experienced swim mer. made the chances of his getting out very doubtful. Every effort was
 made to save him, but to no avail. His body has not yet been recovered One of the five men on the bridge at the time of the accident only one re- tained his hold on the structure. Mir. Richins, having presence of mind to grab one of the wires running along the side. was thus able to hold on. Two of the men who fell in were good swimmers and managed to get to the east shore of the river. That another man was not drowned was due to the heroic work of MT. Richins. One of the men who fell off the bridge, evil dentIy a stranger, as he is not known by anyone in Roosevelt, grabbed one of the wires suspended near the river which MT. Richins uses for gauging, and managed to hold on. At the risk of his own life,- MT. Richins. who is q man of immense strength. reached over and pulled the imperiled man off the wire on the bridge. He was just in time, as the mans strength was rap idly giving out when pulled to safety by MT. Richins.
 An Soo, the Chinese cook at the headquarters camp at Roosevelt, took the afternoon off for a hunt and cross ed the river on the bridge early in the afternoon. Upon his return, finding the bridge wrecked, he attempted to swim the river, but struck the swift current and all hope for him had been given up, when a rope thrown by some Indians on the north side struck him and he was drawn to the shore. He was in very bad condition from the result of his terrible struggles in the water and his life was saved only by the patient work of the Indians.
 This bridge was supposed to be req sonably safe, and was in constant use, although it has sometimes been thought that the strain on the cables

Livingstone, Ariz, March 2-(Special correspondence of The Republican)- March opened with two disastrous ac- cidents at Roosevelt, each one ecaus- ing the death of a man. On March 1, Alex McGalvey, who has been employ ed for some time by Jack Whitney on the High Line road extension near Roosevelt. fell off the cliff near the dam site over 300 feet to the rocks below. No one seems to have seen him fall although there were several men working not far away. One of his companions missed him, and upon

 Every effort is being made to recover Van Wagenen's body. but the river is so high and swift that it is doubtful whether it will ever be found.

NEW THEORY ABOUT
BRAIN DEVELOPMENT

Philadelphia, Dec. %. = A new the
ory of brain development has been pro.
pounded by DR.. Edward Anthony Spitz-
ka, OF Columbia University, before the
meeting of the Association of Amer.
ican Anatomists at the University OF
Pennsylvania. 1t is, in effect. that the
mentality is not dependent on the re.
IatIve proportion OF white and gray
matter so much as upon the health OF
the great bundle OF fibers known as
the corr US callosum, which connect
the two sides OF the brain.
In announcing his theory, DIR. Spitz-
ka exhibited the brains OF more tnan
a dozen men who had been eminent
in science, and in each case endeavor-
ed to show that they bore out his
assertions.
THE relative Importance of the
white and gray matter in the brain is
often misconstrued, "he said. Were
it not for the manifold connection of
the nerve cells In the cortex with ca b
other, as well as with the periphery oy
means of the millions and millions Of
tbers which make up the white mat
ter, such brain would be as useless

Unlike any other telegraph printing
inventions, the typewriter does not
