city to-day on a charge of conspiracy
to murder. The arrest was made on a
telegraphic request of District Attor-
ney Jerome of New York. Nan" Pat
terson, the actress who was twice
put on trial for the murder of Caesar
Young in New York on May 4, 1904, is
charged with conspiracy in the same
connection. new indictments to this ef-
feet having been found in New York
to-day.
Smith and his wife left New York
a few months after the murder and
before the beginning of the mistrial,
and for long time the authorities
were unable to locate them. Smiths
testimony and his identity are consid-
cred almost vital to the case against
Miss Patterson. Several weeks ago
a New York detective met Smith in
Montreal, and from that time until the
arrests here to-day this officer has
awaited favorab BILE time for making
part of the time as travelling compan-
ion, over half the continent, having
made friends with Smith Smith found
out that he was a detective, but be-
lieved that he was after another man.
Detroit, Cleveland and a number Of
Canadian cities were visited Finally
Smith went to Nashville and Louis
vile in the hope of securing a position
with scme of the bookmakers in those
cities, leaving his wife in Cleveland.
He was unsuccessful, and came to Gin
cinnati, where his wife met him on
Wednesday,

DENIED BY RELATIVES.

Mrs. Smith said she had relatives in
Covington, KY, and she went with her
husband to that city yesterday to call
on these people, who, however, refused
to see the visitors and afterward de-
clared that there was no relationship
between them. Returning to this city.
Smith registered at the Grand Hotel
as II. FL. Banning and wife
The detective had kept in tele-
graphic communication with New York
and had deferred the arrest until it
was possible to arrest both, their sep
aration soon after reaching the United
States on returning from Canada hav-
ing caused the delay.
The arrest was quietly made. Smith
and his wife were taken to police head
quarters, where they made no attempt
to deny or conceal their identity, al
though both denied any guilt in con-
nection with the case. They showed
signs of nervousness and worry, but
both declared they would return to
New York without requisition papers,
as they had expected to do, although
they had not anticipated going under
arrest.
The detective who has been follow
irg Smith says that he went under
many aliases in different cities before
registering here as Fl. H. Banning. At
Hamilton, Ont, he called himself Bush,
at Montreal he was known as Adams,
at Detroit it was Collins and in Cleve-
land Robinson.
THREATENED YOUNG.
NEW YORK, March 30.-The Grand
Jury in this city to-day returned in
dictments against ]. Morgan Smith.
Julia Smith (his wife) and Nan
Patterson, charging them jointly with
conspiracy. The indictments are based
on letter alleged to have been written
by Julia Smith to Caesar Young in
which, it is alleged, was a threat and
a demand for money for the Patterson
girl
The action by the Grand Jury fol-
lowed a hearing at the Criminal
Courts building, at which several wit
nesses, including the widow of Caesar
Young and Mrs. Young's brother-in-
law William Luce, were examined by
Assistant District Attorney Rand. who
conducted the. recent trial of Nan"
Patterson, charged with Caesar
Young's murder, which resulted in a
disagreement by the jury.
The arrest of Smith and his wife at
Cincinnati, according to the local au-
thorities, will have an important bear
ing upon the new trial of the Patter-
son girl on the charge of murder, set
for April 10. At a previous trial an at
tempt was made to prove that the re-
volver with whichS Young was shot was

Rev. Arthur c. Dill formerly of the
First Congregational church of Mag
Ia Falls. but now with the Idaho In
dustrial Institute at Weiser, has just
written the following entertaining
letter on Eastern oregon for the
Cataract Journal, of Niagara Falls:
Grand Ronde valley is on the east
ern slope of the Blue mountains and
has an altitude of some $500 feet 1t
is some 30 miles long by 20 broad,
containing 100000 acres of rich land.
What a contrast to a New England
rocky glazial dumping ground.
Here the uncultivated sections are
covered with rabbit brush" and
bunch grass. of which latter horses
and cattle are so fond. The soil
varies. The sandy loan is several
feet deep, then elsewhere it is the
black loan, often underlaid and mix
ed with a sort of volcanic ash, so
common to Idaho and Washington
AS well as Eastern oregon.
This voncanc ash is especially
productive The Grand Ronde river
flows through the valley from south
west to northeast. Small streams and
springs on every hand, supplying
pure wholesome soft water in abund-
ance. Rainfall is sufficient; irriga-
ton is not required.
To this valley and other favored
spots in this resourceful state what
is called sub-irrigation gives the far
mer immunity from failure of his
crops. Only little snow falls in this
valley. but on the high mountain it
accumulates to a great depth, slow
ly melting later in the summer. 1t is
constant supply to the springs and
underground levels as well as sur
face streams "It never fails in aq-
ton and is gratifying In its results.
A failure of crops is never known
here"

The small orchard of five or 10
acres is sufficient care and will pro-
vide a sufficient revenue when inten-

pounds of sugar in single year.
