J. S. Treft and F. S. Wilson
bought 44O acres of land on the
Bogue in this county, and Mr..
Wilson has just arrived to manage
the business. They have been
offered $o, 10000 more for the land
than they gave last fall. This
shows that the value of land in

STRONG
GRID
IRON
Willamette University Will
Have Splendid Football
Team Next Season

Bright indeed are the prospects
for a strong football team at William
ette University this fall. Besides
the battle SCARED veterans of the
past two years there will be several
additions of experienced players.
Among these will be Nutley, who
captained the Tacoma high school
last season. and who is one of the
most formidable tackles that ever
donned the moleskin. While the
boy may be a little light for William
cites heavy line, he will be able to
make good most any field position he
may be placed. .
When the great opening rally of
the. football season is given there
will be the widest enthusiasm for
the great college game and the
heroes of past conflicts who are pom
dering over the question whether to
play or not to play will be swept on
by the tremendous enthusiasm of the
hour and will again put on the can
vas suits and do battle for the old
school. Several new players are
also coming from Portland and other
high school graduates from various
parts of the state have signified their
intention to attend the university.
Ralph RAIDER, the captain of the
team will play at his old position at
full, Curtis Coleman too will be
back, Marker will be found at his
old position at guard, and Mace an1
Long at half can be relied upon to
do some fierce work. Philbrook, the
big guard has gone to the Philip
pines. Patton and Henkle will not
return and Pollard has not yet de- 4,
cided whether he will play, this being
his senior year. Glen Unruh, who |
has been chosen manager, is making
for games and a well
graduated schedule is expected.
As to the trainer. no one as vet
mas been chosen as coach, the old
players are eager TO have Chauncey
Bishop TO act as coach. 1t might be
said that Willamette's splendid grid
ron record of the past two years is
iue in large measure to the eff
lent and scientific coaching of
5ishop' 1t is hoped by the football
Enthusiasts that Bishop will see his
way clear to train the willamette
cam during the coming season

4 Mr.. Lukan tells the FOLLOWING
story:
when the remainder OF the party
left Latuya Bay, the four left be-
hind occupied a cabin about eight
miles inland from the bay The
four occupants Of the cabin formed
strange household. Hans Nelson
was Dane over six feet tall, huge
OF build and mighty Of slnew. He
had gone to Alaska from Chicago.
His wife was a delicate, frail English
woman Of nervous temperament
Martin Dennin was a Norwegian, In
physical attributes like Nelson, but
in good humor and wit OF a Celtic
type. Sammy now familiar fig
ure on the streets of juneau, was a
good natured miner, liked by all.
OF Chester Appleduist know little.
so close did London adhere to
the truth that even in his tale he
gave most OF his characters the |
names they bore I'm flesh. After the !
main party had left Latuya Bay the
party OF four did much prospecting
On their own account. Before No.
'ember they had collected some $S,-
200, the amount named in London's
ale. Each one OF the four had an
'qual interest in the money.
DENIM Kills Applequist.
Early one morning in November,
While the four were eating break. {
asst, DENIM excused himself, saying
e was going TO Yukata, ninety q
niles distant. His three companions 9
'ished him luck on the trail and he I
IT the cabin. The rest OF the party 2
ontinued with their breakfast. In
short time. before the meal could
e finished, DENIM pushed the cabin 4
DOR open. He had in his hand a 4
S-caliber revolver, and not a shot /
un as London says. q
Before the party could jump to "

J their feet DENIM fired, shootin
Chester Applequist dead. The bulle
had passed through his heart. TIL
I second shot from Dennin's revolye
knocked Sammy of his feet with
wound in the neck. Mrs. Nelson
sprang to her feet and with dish
rag in her hand jumped behind Den
min. Before Denim could fire agair
Mrs. Nelson had the dishrag arount
his reck. Her husband struck al
the revolver in Dennin's hand, caus
ing it to explode, shooting DENIM IN
the leg. DENIM, wounded as he was
attempted to wrestle with Nelson,
but Mrs. Nelson choked him until he
collapsed. Her husband fell on top
Of him and it was but few minutes
until Dennin was tightly bound.
say DENIM Must BE Executed.
Firmly bound DENIM was placed
on a cot. Applequist's corpse was
covered with blanket. Sammy
was placed in a bunk to await the
result of the wound in his neck.
Nelson and his wife were left alone
with the murderer on their hands.
They finally decided to take him
down to the lower cabin, four miles
distant from the scene of the muir
der. For two weeks DENIM lay on
4 cot tightly bound suffering from
his wounds. The Indians at length
became tired of guarding him and
declared that he must be disposed !
IT, Mrs. Nelson and her husband |
Iecided that the lextalonis must be |
indicated even in the wilderness.
DENIM was told that he must |
ang. He asked spiritual consola-
ion. and Mrs. Nelson read to him
rom the Bible. Two weeks after
be shooting DENIM was led to an
nprovised scaffold behind the cabin
nd executed. On the first boat in
ne spring Mrs. Nelson, her husband
nd Sammy went to Juneau and \

JACK LoNDoN'S
THRILLING STORY

Jack London wrote a story tina
IL verltable. human document, wher
he penned THE Unexpected" in The
August issue OF MoClures Magazine
SO true has been the story teller To
details that hundred men now IN
the northwest at once identified the
real persons who figure as characters
in the story. Hardly could the story
escape because at one time wide at
tention on the streets OF juneau the
recital OF the facts Upon which Lon
don bases his story has become a
hackneyed tale.
In Seattle at the present time are
two men who were the employers
OF the persons who figure in Lon
