Sioux City. Iowa, July 13.-W. P.
Royce. machinist for the Sioux City

Loretta Patton Hendricks, daughter of
the woman whom he shot to death ten
years ago while in jealous rage. The
ceremony was performed at LIE Mars,
Iowa. in the Chautauqua tent by Rev.

Royce has thus made a curious repara-
tioD to the orphaned girl, who was be-
reft OF her mother through his act. He
was but II years old when he became
infatua ted with the pretty widow.
Nellie Patton. She did not return his
affection, and during spree he killed
her and was sent to the penitentiary for
II years.
His mother and sister, who are highly
respected and influential, believed the
boy was reformed, secured his parole
and later his pardon after he had served
three years. He was welcomed back
by his old associates and given a fine
position. having learned mechanical
engineering while in prison.
Loretta had been adopted by prom-
1ent farmer named Hendricks near
1ere. Royce called on her brother
Andrew, and later on her, with the re-
'ult that they are now married.

Alcohol for Farmers.

Norfolk. Va, July THE value O
free alcohol t, the public can be better
appreciated when the many uses of this
product are known to the farmers of the
country. Uncle Sam, being desirous oi
giving the public the full benefit of the
opportunities in store, purposes having
an exhibit at the jamestown exposition
showing the development and uses Of
denaturized alcohol, which is made
from the products Of the farm and
garden. This exhibit will be in chSFxe
of competent government officials n ol
the experiment stations of the DepsN1
ment of Agriculture.
In connection with the government
exhibits of various kinds of internal
combustion engines using denaturized
alcohol for fuel. Farmers will learn at
the jamestown exposition how to save
labor IN q thousand different ways.
They will be shown how they can
utilize machinery for saving wood,
chopping stock feed, pumping water.
and many other things. And the
farmers wife can employ machinery for
doing her churning, washing, operating
her sewing machine, and in many other
ways to save labor. Special machinery
is already being made for utilizing this
new and cheap fuel, aud so economical
will be this fuel alcohol that every
farmer can make his own supply from
the waste products of bis farm.
Uncle Sam will ALEC show the public
how to use denaturized alcohol as fuel
for heating and cooking purposes at
home, and for lighting the houses and
country roads. He will teach the
farmers how they may save time and
expense by making their fuel and lights
at so small cost that their living
expenses will be reduced to minimum
and their conviences so greatly increas-
ed that they will find real luxury in
living on farm.

FARMERS MEET.
Sherman County WheatgrOWers'
AssOctatiOn Formed.

Sherman county farmers to tht
number of more than 100, attended 9
m citing at the town OF Wasco on Satur'
day afternoon, for the purpose of organ
iziug wheatgrowers' association, to CO.
operate with the association recently
formed in this county.
The general plan of the Umatilla
county association was followed by the
farmers of Sherman county and it is
certain that excellent results will
follow.
A special from The Dalles to the
Oregon Sunday Journal gives the fol-
lowing account of the meeting:
Unbounded enthusiasm prevailed at
the convention farmers held in this
place for the purpose OF discussing an
organization of the Oregon farmers, says
the journal. It was decided that the
time for the tllers of the soil to band to-
gether for mutual benefit had come and
meeting will be held at Moro July 81.
when permanent organization will be
effected "Stand By One Another"
was the watchword of the meeting and
everything was harmonious, not a
single discord being struck throughout
the meeting.

Open River association and Mr.. Devers
of Portland. The speakers touched up.

association when it is formed and out.

of the farmers.
1t was determined at today's meeting
to further the project OF securing legisla-
ton at the next session OF the legisla-
tnre for the establishment OF jute mill |
at the Oregon state penitentiary.
1t was shown that the $4,000 mill at
the Washington prison at Walla Walla
is turning out $500 jute sacks daily at
retail price Of G12 cents each at a profit
to the state. This brings the price of
grain sacks within reason, the farmers
declare, while under existing conditions
they complain they are forced to pay
much higher prices than those which
the ranchers of the sister state are
asked to pay.
After permanent organization is ef.
fected, it is planned by the farmers to
arrange for salesdays. like those OF the
woolgrower's association. At these
the farmers will pool their
grain and put it up at auction, allowing
the grain dealers to gather and bid up

FRAUD is CLAIM ED.
Grant County LOcators Held up by
Land once Omcials.

! Baker City, Or, July 12.-Somethini
of sensation if not the genuine articl
is promised Baker county in the matter
of timber land locations and possible
frauds. As is we'll known, seyera
hundred people have recently come II
here from the east and other points ant
have gone into the John Day anc
Harvey countries and located timber
lands. Many Baker City people hav'
also located timber lands in the eam'
territory. Their work may be all for
naught.
A we'll known Baker City man, man
ager OF a mine near Prairie City, who
has just returned from there, ls au.
thority for the statement that much ex-
citement, confusion and fear of loss on
| the part of locators has been developed
within the past few days. Coupled
with this, he states that arrests are
threatened on the part of the locators OF
cruisers who cheated them in their loca-
tions and on the part OF the government
OF locators who have made misrepre-
sentations in the land Office and who
are suspected of selling their location
rights in conspiracy.
The locators claim that it is highway
robbery for the cruisers to charge them
Sl00 to 5000 a location and then put
them on the map five miles from the
ground they have to swear they had
seen. But so far as known, there is no
legal way to reach the cruiser.
On the other hand the government
detectives who have been on the ground
watching proceedings and taking notes
claim to have evidence that locators are
selling their rights or had sold them be-
fore they went into the timber. All
locations have been stopped in this
locality. papers withheld and filings de-
clined. An investigation, it is under
stood. will be made at once and the
while affair shown up. The cruisers
placed many locators in the forest
reserve and these filings were promptly
thrown out. What the outcome will be
is a question and many think SEN
sation is in store. Possibly Heney will
have another job in Oregon.
