OUTLAW DIED

Frank Smith, Murderer OF
Three Officers, is Hunted

When He Refused to Surrender,
Was Shot to Death by spo-
kane Man.

Oregon, City, Ore.-Frank Smith,
the convict who has murdered three
officers of the law in his endeavors TO-
escape, was killed on Tuesday In the
woods south of New Era, Clakamas
county, by a bullet in his head from
the revolver Of Harry Draper OF Spo-
kane. The outlaw was trapped at ,
a. M, and at 11:10 he was writhing
in the underbrush in his death strug-
gle. Prior to his destruction, Smith
had made a sensational escape into
the timber and had been surrounded
and penned in by at least 200 officers
and volunteers. Dynamite had been
used to dislodge him, and the woods
had been fusilladed with bullets, all
of which he escaped unframed.
Smith was tracked to his lair
through the sagacious intelligence OF
Diapers bloodhounds, which is the
best that bloodhounds have ever ac-
complished in this state. The flushing
of Smith was unexpected, although
the men were certain he was in the
timber. The officers stumbled upon
him and were standing within three
feet of him when he was espied. The
dogs, which had been following the
hot scent and uttering loud cries,
stopped at the log and shifted the air,
holding their heads aloft, Draper had
the dogs in leash and was urging them
on. Suddenly Draper glanced down
and there, concealed partly by the
log, was the murderer and fugitive,
Smith saw he was cornered and made
no cutlery. He was industriously pull
Ing the razors, watches and jewelry
from his coat pocket and hiding them
under the log when Draper saw him.
Are you Smith," demanded ORA
per.
"Yes," was the brief answer.
As Smith made this reply he pulled
his revolver from the inside of his coat
and started to level it at Draper. In
the twinkling of an eye Draper
whipped out his own revolver and
sent bullet crashing through Smiths
temple.

Is YOUNG AT EIGHTY.FIvE.
Senator Pettus Has No Thought Of
Giving Up Toga.

Misunderstanding unusual is
happening in Alabama. The people
want Edmond Winston Pettus to con-
tinue to serve them in the United
States senate as long as he lives. Yet
they are preparing to hold an election
to decide upon his successor. The
reason is that when Senator Pettus'
present term expires, in 1909, he will
be SO, and the election is to be held
because Alabamans think he will not
live longer than that But Grandpa
Pettus is indignant. He says he Is as
spry as he was at 60 and that he ex-
poets to live out the whole six years
of another term. He is a candidate
for reelection on the platform, "A
man is as young as he feels"

Stories Largely Untrue.

San Francisco-The records Of
Coroner Walsh disprove the widely
circulated stories that large numbers
of people were shot and killed by the
soldiers during the great fire. OF all
the cases handled by this. official in
only one was 1t found that death was
due to gunshot wounds. The excep-
ton was Heber Tilden, killed by a
civic guardsman who had the mistak-
en- idea that the automobile in which
Tilden was riding was being used for
lOOting purposes.

statement of the Goremykin ministry,
coupled with an intimation that the
Official announcement may not be CIV

however, which contains several unex-

favor with the liberal majority in the
popular branch of the parliament than
the WHITE cabinet.

that a spark from locomotive set
fire to some of the inflamable material
in the Boyle building.

WIRELESS" TEN YEARS OLD
About That Time Since Valuable In-
 vention Was First Given to the World.

Wireless telegraphy is now ten years old. On June ?, 1896, there Was filed in the British patent of flee provisional specification flor improvements in transmit. ting electrical impulses and sig nals and in apparatus therefor" by one Guglielmo Marconi,,
 At the time this patent was ap- piled for, says the Scientific American, the art of transmit ting messages without wires was wholly unknown, in so far as it's practice and utilization were con. cerned.
 Marconi was perhaps the most persistent eXperimenter in the bridging of greater distances, while very early in the develop ment of the new telegraphy Lodge turned his attention to the production of a selective system by means of electrical resonance.
 The former succeeded so wei! in his task that from three miles in 1897 he was enabled to send and receive signals 5000 miles in 1904, while the latter, although he failed to evolve a commercial ly selective apparatus, led the way for the timing of the sending and receiving circuits individual ly, and syntonizing them cOllec- lively.
 Another important feature of recent date is the utilization of uto-detectors in connection with telephone receivers as receptOrs, for the translation of incoming electric waves into the alphabetic code of dots and dashes.
 De Forest was probably the first in the commercial field to use the auto-detector and tele- phone receiver, while FesSenden has conferred a lasting benefit upon science and humanity by his ingenious detector, the liquid barretter, an instrument that in it's sensibility, it's ruggedness and it's simplicity is second only to the telehpone receiver of Bell.
 With these Improvements. chiefly made within the past five years, wireless telegraphy is all that the most exacting critic could hope for, if we except SC, lectivity, and in this especial branch of the work there is yet unlimited opportunity for the wireless inventor to exercise his ingenuity.

FOUR YEARS OF AGONY.
Whole Foot Nothing But Proud Flesh Had to Use Crutches-"Cuti- cura Remedies the Best on
 Earth"

'In the year 1899 the side of my right foot was cut off from the little toe down to the heel, and the physi- clan who had charge of me was try ing to sew up the side of my foot, but with no success At last my whole foot and way up above my calf was nothing but proud flesh. I suffered un- told agonies for four years, and tried different physicians and all kinds of ointments. I could walk only with crutches. In two weeks afterwards I saw change in my limb. Then be. gan using Cuticura Soap and Oint- ment often during the day, and kept 1t up for seven months, when my limb was healed up just the same as if 1 never had trouble. It is eight months now since I stopped using Cuticura Remedies, the best on Gods earth. I am working at the present day after five years of suffering The cost of Cuticura Ointment and Soap was only $6, but the doctors bills were more like $500. John M. Lloyd, 71S s.

Amusement Like Taking Pictures.

A well-known criminal lawyer one day sauntered into a police court just as case was called. It appeared that the defendant had no attorney, and the judge glanced about the room to see whom he might assign to the case.
 "I'll take it, judge" the late conner said, wishing to pass away the tine.
 By the way, what is the man charged with?" the attorney presently asked.
 Hes a camera fiend of the worst sort, MT. Brown" the judge said with slight smile. q expect to send him to the workhouse for about three months"
 What" the lawyer shouted, inSig- nantly. "Your honor must be joking. Send man to the rock pile for three months for little harmless amuse- ment like taking pictures?"

DESCENDANT OF POLISH JEW
Great Grandfather of Queen of Spain Man of Very Humble
 Position.

The blood of prince and of peasant, so it is said, mingles every 100 years. A striking in stance is the case of Princess Ena, now the wife of Alfonso of Spain.
 Here is the story as given in Le Monde MOderne: "First cousin to the emperor of Russia, to the German emperor and to the heir to the throne of Great Britain, Princess Ena of Battenberg is al most as nearly related to a far humber family circle.
 "Toward the beginning of last century Polish Jew, Hauke, by name, entered the service of the grand duke of Hesse Darmstadt, and occupied a very subordinate position at the little court. His daughter, Julia Theresa, born in 1925, was, at the age of 26, mar ried morganatically by Prince Alexander of Hesse, two years her junior.
 "Renouncing the faith of her fathers, she was baptized into the Protestant church, and by the reigning grand duke was accord ed the title first of countess of Battenberg and subsequently of princess.
 "Prince Henry, the third child of this union, became the hus- band of Princess Beatrice and, of course, father of Princess Ena, King Alfonso's bride. So little was he considered as belonging to the inner circle of European royalty that when Queen Vic toria conferred upon him the rank of royal highness protests arose on all sides.
 Formal notifications were made by the courts of Berlin, Vienna and St. Petersburg to the effect that Queen Victoria's son. in-law, issue of morganatic union, could not be recognized as royal highness elsewhere than on British territory. Twenty years later the daughter of the man on whom this affront is put becomes queen of Spain and treats on a footing of perfect equality all the reigning menarchs of Flu roper
