Bogus Agent Convicted.

Deputy Sheriff VIII Lane is home
from walla Walla, where he went to
arrest E. o. Bassett, a travelling rep
resentative, or, rather, misrepresenta-
tive, OF Collier & Co., who is charged
with embezzlement by T. J. Huddle-
ston. Bassett was arraigned yester-
day morning before Justice of the
Peace Savidge, and entered a plea of
guilty. He will appear again before
the committee magistrate today at
o'clock p. m, to receive his sentence.
Bassett is guilty of collecting money
for subscriptions to Golfers and
keeping the money. His arrest fol-
lowed an attempt of one of the sub
scribers to find out from the head
office of the Golfers company why
his paper did not come. Upon receiv-
ing word that his subscription had
never reached the office, an investi-
CATION was started, resulting in the
arrest of Mr.. Bassett. How much
money Bassett secured Is not known

In the east walk Of the cloisterS at
Westminster abbey there are three
most interesting raves-those Of
Thomas Botterton and his wife, better
known as Bess Saunderson, and the
ever fascinating Mrs. Braceglrdle. OF
all the people who lie within these hal
lowed walls 1t may safely be said that
Betterton has the best claim OF all to
this privilege. No small measure Of
praise must be accorded to this gifted
actor for the fact that he almost more
than any one else was responsible for
the resuscitation Of the English drama
after the stern regime of the Puritans
Mrs. Bracegirdle was either adopted by
Betterton or placed under his care, and
she very soon took all hearts in Lon
don by storm. She achieved her great
est success In acting in Congreve's
plays. Her artistic career, however,
was a comparatively short one, for
Mrs. Bracegirdle retired from the
stage in dudgeon when Anne Oldheld
first became her dangerous rival. She
lived on in honorable retirement and
beloved by all, high and low, far and
near, until the year 174S, when she was
buried here beside her old friends the

Miner Took Carbolic AcId.

Within a short distance from the
spot on Coyote Peak where an un-
known man took his life by drinking
laudanum eight years ago, N. Kelly,
a miner formerly of this district was
found dead yesterday evening by a
youth who was rabbit hunting.
Beside the dead man was found an
eight-ounce bottle of carbolic acid,
about two ounces of which had been
swallowed by him. He was frozen
stiff and 1t was impossible to identi-
fly him otherwise than by the name,
an. Kelly" which was tattooed on his
right arm.
1t was learned by the coroner from
Dave Schoate that Kelly used to work
at the Banzette mine in 1899 and 1900
and that he was also in the Coeur
dAlenes at the time of the strikes
and the proclamation of martial law
by the late Governor Stunenburg. He
was seen by a man by the name OF
Grant near the Baker City depot
about a month ago, in an intoxicated
condition and so far as can be learn
ed was never seen after that until he
was found dead.-Baker City Herald

the Yakima Valley bank, payable to
James Moroccan and is signed with the

How Dream. Are weighed.

An ingenious instrument which dem
onstrates the close connection that ex-
lists between dreams and brain calcula-
ton is known as the tilt board" A
long, shallow tray big enough for
man to recline upon Is balanced exact
ly upon a steel blade. A subject is
placed upon 1t and put to sleep. where
upon the end containing his feet gen
orally falls. But eventually the subject
begins to dream, and then the tray con-
tanning the sleeper's feet reascends, the
extent to which It moves varying ac-
cording TO the vividness Of the dream.
The explanation Is that the blood
leaves the brain Of sleeper directly
the mental activities cease. and, the
head as a result becoming lighter, that
end OF the balance rises. When the
sleeper dreams small quantities OF
blood are recalled to the brain to sup
ply the dreams, and the balance is
gradually changed. In this way
dreams may be weighed.

Extraordinary preparations are being

millions of acres of public lands which
they have fraudulently acquired. 1t
is the second great stage of the land

Necessarily the first step was the
detection and conviction of the thieves

its domain. Next comes the effort
to compel restitution of the stolen
