OUTLAW DIED
WITH BOOTS ON
Frank Smith, Murderer of
Three Officers, is Hunted
Down by BlOOdhOundS
is Trailed Down by Bloodhounds, ana
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 3
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 unharmed.
Smith was tracked to his lair
through the sagaclous intelligence OF
Draper's 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 outcry. He was industriously pull.
Ing the razors, watches and iewelry
from his coat pocket and hiding them
under the log when Draper saw him.
Are you Smith," demanded Dra-
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 1t at Draper. In |
the twinkling of an eye Draper
whipped out his own revolver and |
sent bullet crashing through Smiths
temple.

LAKE TRAFFIC AT sTANpsTILL.
Workmen on Strike and the Bla
Freight Vessels Are Idle.

Chicago. Lake freight traffic Is at Il
standstill as a result of the strike of
the longshoremen here, at Detroit,
Cleveland, Duluth and all over the
lakes.
Several of the boats which are not
affected by the strike bore upon their
sides early Tuesday large placards
announcing that they were union
boats. The center of the strike as
far as this city is concerned is not In
the city proper, but in South Chicago
where the mills of the Illinois Steel
company, branch of the United Steel
corporation, are located
The passenger boats running out of
Chicago have not thus far been af-
fected by the strike.
At Cleveland, lumber boats, package
freight boats and passenger boats are
not affected by the strike at present,
as their owners are not affiliated with
the Lake Carriers association. In
the port of Cleveland 1000 men are
directly affected, 1000 of whom are

NEW LINEN PETTICOATS,
A Novelty Is Heavy Undressed Linen
Trimmed with Bands of Heavy
Lace on the Circular Rufle.

Now that silk skirts are not con.
sldered the top notch Of elegance as
they once were, the white ones are
made in the most splendid designs
for evening and many novelties are
introduced for those worn on the
street.
For instance, for the latter heavy
undressed linen is used with a deem
circular rutfle intersected with bands
Of heavy lace and finished with a two.
inch edge Of lace.
These are cut two inches shorter
than the skirt, hold enough starch
and are used for all the skirts that
have not lining.
The fancy ones are made Of fine
Paris muslin with two ruffies of lace
at hem and 20-inch ruffle put on full
cut into sharp points, which are
edged with full ruffies Of three.inch
lace. These are the very prettiest
skirts used for dancing.
They are cut to the ankle. Other
elaborate pettitcoats have a panel
down the front of all-over embroidery
with tiny tucks at the side and three
ruffies of the embroidery edged with
lace from knees to hem.
The fashion Of putting the initials
In embroidery on each garment is
very much adopted and forgot to add
that another novelty is to put a tiny
pocket on the breast of the nlghtgown
On which the monogram is embroid.

The Young Physician.
WHAT HIS EXPERIENCE PROVED.

In the early sixties it was usually the
duty of a practicing physician to ride
many miles every day on his regular
round of visits upon his patients. In
those days young man who had received
splendid medical training in one of the
best medical colleges of that day was ac-
customed to ride ten, twenty, thirty miles
or more visiting the sick and afflicted.
His success was soon phenomenal. Doc
tors and families called him for consulta-
tion to towns at considerable distances
by rail. His speciality was the cure of
those common and distressing diseases
of women. He had early discovered that
by combining the extracts of the follow
ing medicinal plants, in just the right
proportion, without the use of alcohol his
"Prescription almost invariably cured
such cases. Later, in order to place this
remedy before the public in a shape easily
to be procured, he esta blished a labo-
ratory at Buffalo, N. Y, where regu-
larly qualified chemists were put in
charge to accurately prepare his UPre-
scription" and put it in shape for ship
ment to all parts of the world. This
remedy, which he named DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription is not a Hpatent
medicine" but a tonic and nervine for
women, and q regular PHYSICIANS pre-

An Attractive Home,

A visit to the country, espec-
iallv at this season of the year,
is always pleasant experience to
the city dweller, for Nature is
now putting on her most attrac-
tive garb and gently whispering
ner lessons of life, peace, hope
and joy.
A knowledge of these things
took US out to the home of Mr..
and Mrs. D. c. Rose, about a
mile and a half southwest OF lbe
city. Here, indeed, a revelation
Of the allurements of rural lite
awaited US.
Here Mr.. Rose has erected a
substantial, commodious and
beautiful residence. 1t occupies
a position that commands a fine
view of the city, and the valley to
The east with Hood, the Three
Sisters and other snow crowned
peaks of the Cascades skirting
the distant horizon.
Mrs. Rose planned and decorat-
ed the interior of the house and
has shown rare good taste In com
bination OF pleasing co,ols, and
selection of those accessories
which make home the most de-
sirable place on earth.
Mr.. Rose has also built a fine
commodious barn which gives
him stabling, granaries, moving
and threshing floor of ample ca
pacity and convenient arrange
ment.
The larger part of the farm is
given to the culture OF fruit, ber-
ries and vegetables. The fruit
tress are laden with promise of
abundant crops This is espec-
tally true OF the prune, apple and
cherry orchards. A better con-
ditioned and cared for orchard
cannot be found in the VILLAIN
cite valley.
The frosts do not appear to
have harmed anything and the
promise is now that his prune
drier will have all it can do righ
at home.
Mr.. Rose is to be commended
for demonstrating what rational
expenditure of mo1ey and an in
telligent application OF bruins
ana Drawn can do here in Oregon
toward home building aud Sc
curing comfortable omoeten-

Co., is building a commercial
line from PhiIomath to Toledo,
there to connect with the long
distance line. This line will be
completed by June 1st, and will
offer outside connections for tele-
phone messages, There will be
no local phones on the line, and
where people along the line are
to be served they will be served
by local lines running to switch
boards at stations. This will
obviate the usual trouble of get
ting through on heavily loaded
lines.
This company has large num-
ber of phones at Newport and
are putting in twelve new ones
this week. Several additional
phones are to be added at once to
the Toledo exchange. The route
from Toledo to Philomath will be
by the way of Elk City, Salado
and Harlan, This will open up
new territory not touched by any
line, and will be great conven-
ience to that part of the county.

Will Start Factory.

Last summer gentleman
came through the country and
stopped in Corvallis for the ir-
t1oduction OF a washing machine
which he called the "2oth Cer-
turv." Before leaving here S.
P. Hunt purchased OF the Invent I
of the machine the territorial
rights for Oregon,
During the winter and spring
Mr.. Hunt has been making the
machine on a small scale, but se-
Gently he sold an interest in the
machine to Albert Kemp. The
firm of Hunt & Kemp intend to
start a factory for the manufsc-
ture of the washers and it is to be
located in what is known as the
Beach feed store building on
North Main street.
Some time during the present
week Mr.. Hunt will go to Port
lan6 for the purpose of purchas-
ing the proper machinery for the
factory. 1t is the intention of
the firm to have the factory ready
for active operations in the course
of a couple of weeks. From what
we know OF the merits of the
machine it appears that the firm
should do business from the
start and on paying basis, too.

ITS AWFUL NESS.


America can equal in horror the
hss of life and property occasion
ed in San Francisco by the great
earthquake and subsequent fire
Of last Wednesday,. At 5:15
o'clock on that dread morning
hundreds of thousands of people
were awakened from their
slumbers in the twinkling of an
eye
They were driven out into the
streets by the swaying Of build
mgs and crashing of timbers.
Great buildings which had cost
millions of dollars and years Of
uneeasing toll for an army OF
nlen were rent and razed to the
the, ground later to be Tapped up
by hungry and merciless flames.
Such horror randemonium,
and terror as must have pre-
vailed during the early stages of
such a disaster are beyond rec
kpning. Few of even the Wild
est, imagination can picture such
demonstrations of confusion as
must have reigned until cooler
heads and nervy men
came to the tore and restored,
as nearly as possible for humans
ao. do. under the circumstances,
the, ,semblance of order.
Tosthe credit of the people of
authority of the great metrop-
oils ef the Pacific, it must be
said that they proved their
worth in this, the greatest hour
Of trial possible to subject frail
humanity. No people in the
history of the world facing such
2. trial have behaved better-few,
if any, have equaled those who
resided in the Queen City.
Great has been their charity
witb.each other in their hour of
deprivation.
The damage of the great earth
quake was infinitesimai COM
pared with the work of the
eoniagration which followed.
1t is, hard to fight fire without
water and the system supplying
the city was so wrecked that
water even in sufficient guam
titles to allay thirst was unobtain-
able. The flames spread rapid
g, and in spite of every effort by
use of dynamite and cannon,
continued its work of devas-
tation until practically three
fourths Of the city was a waste
of ruins and ashes. The business
eenters are totally destroyed.
But already the work of clear
ing away the debris and open
ing thoroughfares has COM
menced. Certain businesses
are being resumed. And best
Of all, mayhap, comes the an
aouncement of the fact that the
people are not entirely disheart-
sned and discouraged. They
are. determined to rebuild on
greater lines than ever. The
San. Francisco of a few years
hence will be greater than ever.
The resources of California de-
mand it, as does the entire coast,
aye. the whole world. Phoenix
ike, she will arise from her own
ashes il greater splendor than
ever.
We are q charitable and COM
passionate people and to the glory
of the entire country be it said
that nothing in the way of such
philanthropy was known before
in the history of this or any other
nation. In monied contributions
there are millions, while
from nearly every little hamlet
there are supplies and necessities
of life sent by the carloads.

have all responded nobly to the
cause of the stricken city. Much
