Joe STANDBY was a crippled, gruff
old Indian fighter and scout who
came to the Grand Ronde valley in
1864. In a running fight with the
Snake river Indians on Big creek,
Baker county, in 1866. his horse fell
with him and tore his ribs loose
from his back bone, making him
horrible lifelong cripple.
In 1865 he helped another pioneer
smuggle 40 acres of beautiful
meadow land on the Grand Ronde
river. little thinking that it would be
succor to him in his old days. He
left oregon mysteriously in 1870.
/ The man who secured the land inn
| proved it with several hundred
acres more, builded well, founded a
good home and enjoyed life for 40
years without molestation, when a
short time ago, Joe Standley rolled
back into Grand Ronde valley from
Texas, with a wife and eight child
ren, an eight-mule team, a yoke of
COWS and about seven dogs.
Joe at once went to the La Grande
land office to see If this tract of
smuggled land had been filed upon,
| ne naNlng carried tne remembrance
of the smuggling in all his wander
ings and upon finding the tract still
vacant, filed homestead upon it
and moved over into the old pioneers
oat field and began building him a
house.
The man who had claimed this
land without question for 40 years,
protested, but Joe replied: 81 helped
you steal this land and you have used
it for 40 years and now it is my turn
to use it the same length of time"
Then a compromise was made and
Joe built his house down on the
river bank where he had planted his
beaver traps 40 years before, but
where 60 bushels of oats were grow
ing on every acre now. He moved
his family into the new house and
was the happiest trapper, hunter and
scout that ever lived to come out OF
savagery and become a householder
He held the land until he secured
title to it when he sold it for $50
per acre, took his money and family
and rolled back to Texas, where he
is now living on cotton plantation
happy as a, king.

ARCTIC CONSUMPTION CURE.
An Expert amt Extensive Trial VIII
Be Mnde OF II.

Be Made OF 1t.
Halifax, n. s., June 15.-In order
to make a practical test of the the
ory advanced by prominent Arctic
explorers and others that a sojourn
in the Arctic regions will cure con-
sumption, the steamer Havana leaves
this port today for a health cruise
along the coast of Greenland. The
steamer is in charge of physicians
and others selected by a number of
prominent Washingtenians who are
backing the project, and it carries as
passengers a number of tuberculosis
patients.
The plan is to visit certain sterile
and dustless areas which lie under
perpetual summer sunshine within
the Arctic circle, for the cure of early
cases of the disease. 1t is contended
that the continuous day of Arctic
summer, with its healthful and brae-
ing features, far surpasses any con-
ditions in any other part of the world
for the cure of pulmonary diseases.
The Havana will cruise along the
shore of Baffin's Land and central
Greenland, anchoring in various
sheltered fiords for the diversion, and
benefit of the patients. The return
is scheduled for the latter part o!
September.

 Bay, where fifty tons of provisions and 8 hundred tons of coal were deposited on the ice.
 In the severe w Eather of November, 1903, the ship America, which carried the Ziegler expedition, broke up and the provisions and coal were lost. Part of the wreckage remained until Janu- ary p, 1904, when it disappeared dur ing a storm. The loss of the provisions was seriously felt, but he stores left by the Baldwin -Zieg1er expedition in Tep- litz Bay savfd the men from serious distress.
 In the following spring persistent at tempts were made eastward and west ward to force a passage to the pole. The conditions, however, were insur- mountable. The expedition met with much open water, and day after day encountered fresh dangers and difficult ties. Ultimately the supply of provis- ions began to give out, and a painful Journey southWard was begun, the members Of the expedition finally reach ing the depots at Cape Flora, Cape DlIlOIl ttIitt I1IIip AICSlSEs dllOilS WHICH they were distributed and where they managed to eke out the limited sup plies by catches of walrus and bear.

The relations between all the members of the expedition we're cordial and all took turns at duty, doing the hard work willingly, buOyed up by the knowledge that relief ships would be sent to their rescue.
 All were most hopeful until the fall of 1904, when the solid ice field, stretch ing in every direction seemed to pre- clude the possibility of help reaching | them. Some of the men then became Respondent. The leaders had consider ] able difficulty in keeping up the spirits of the members of the expedition throughout the hard winter months, but hope returned in the spring, when | the ice conditions became more favor able, and then MT. Champ and his col | leagues found MT. Fiala and his com rades in fairly good condition.

VACATION SCHOOLS CLOSE.
Their Progress During the Past Sum- ts.i 11nap

Their Progress During the Past Sum-
 The vacation schools closed yesterday morning with a literary and musical programme and a fine exhibition of practical political work. The attend ance of children during the summer certainly emphasizes the fact that va cation schools and summer play grounds are a legitimate and necessary branch of the public school system, and should be generously supported by the board of education. A visit to these schools will prove this without fear of contradiction.
 A visit to the Zunder school at the closing exercises yesterday morning was very instructive as well as enter taining, and reflects much credit on the teachers and Miss Ruth as principal. Miss Stars is her clever and able as- sistant. Miss Wright is admirable in her mature teaching" Miss Barnes has a model domestic science depart ment. The exhibit of the work of the pupils of Miss Anna M. Tanyanes is therefection of a conscientious, careful and clever teacher.
 Room 12 has made during the six ac- tive weeks of the session "A garments. 50 iron holders, 4 aprons, 140 dolls hats, 54 napkin rings. 76 picture frames, 12 reed hats, 12 braided raff1a mats. 26 lSnotted work bags. 140 book marks, 21 tilo mats, 16 raffia hammocks, 12 raffia boxes, 25 reed baskets, 14 sewed reed and raffla baskets
 Miss Smith is the supervisor of the summer schools, and has every reason to feel gratified with their success.
