IRON DYKE MORTGAGE SALE.
Proceeds Will BE Used to Build Rail-
road Down Snake River.

A dispatch from Baker City says:
Yesterday afternoon, through an Of
ficial of the Citizens National bank,
a deed and a mortgage were placed
on record with Recorder Henry,
whereby the Curtze and Conrad inter-
ests in the great Iron Dyke properties
were transferred to the Erie Trust
company of Pittsburg, Pa. The mort
gage shows that CurtZe, Conrad and
their associates give to the trust COM
pany stock in the Iron Dyke mines to
the amount of 100000 and 500 $1,000
bonds, making a total of $500, 900 rep
resented in the transfer.
Yesterday there was no one here
who would assume authority in maxi
ing any statement for publication
with reference to these transfers. 1t
is known, however, that the business
of the big corporation has been for
some time shaping itself with view
to realizing funds with which to pros
ecute the construction of the railroad
from Huntingdon to Homestead on
Snake river. Those who pretend to
know of the engineering and the esti-
mates involved, have stated to people
in Baker City that about $500, 600
would be required for this proposition
and 1t is assumed by those who had a
knowledge of yesterdays filing that
the fund received from the trust COM
pany would be devoted to this con-
struction work,

MAN SHOT BY \ BOY.
Victim Was Attempting to Kidnap
His Child.

From the Lostine correspondent of
Baker City Democrat is taken the fol-
lowing account of the dangerous
wounding of Frank Shilling:
Frank Shilling was shot and II is
thought fatally wounded yesterday af-
ternoon by Joy Haun a 13-year-old
boy. The shooting was the result Of
Shilling's attempt to regain possession
OF his 4-year-old boy which had been
awarded to the custody of his wife by
the district court some months ago.
The Shilling family became in
volved in some difficulty which re-
suited in a divorce. Mrs. Shilling was
given the custody of their child.
Since the divorce Mrs. Shilling has
been residing with her parents, Mr..
and Mrs. Haun. Yesterday Shilling
came into town and, discovering that
the boy was out with his uncle, Joy
Haun, shooting squirrels, followed
them to the hillside and picked up the
boy and started with him to his camp.
Jop Haun told him to drop the boy or
he would fire. Shilling did not do as
requested and attempted to strike the
gun from young Haun's hand. The
gun was discharged and the bullet
struck him in the side. 1t is thought
that the ball penetrated the lung.
The gun was 32 calibre Winches-
ter Shilling is in dangerous con-
dition. The Haun boy is 13 years of
age and has been placed under $4,000
bonds.

IMPORTANT HAUL
COUNTERFE|TERS
PROBABLY BELONGED
TO WIDESPREAD GANG.
Nine Men Under Arrest. One of Whom
Was Taken in by Deputy United
States Marshal Bushee-Shrewd De-
vice of Employing a "Stalr' to Do
Their Buying-NO Paper Money
Had Yet Been Made, All BEING Gold.

AS further details regarding the
capture of the counterfeiting gang at
Huntington come to light, the i'm
portance of the arrests become more
and more apparent. 1t is declared
by the federal officials who have been
working on the case that the gang is
one of the most extensive in the
United States. and have been unusu-
ally hard to locate.
Nine men in all have been placed
under arrest, five being arrested at
Huntington, one in Portland and three
at WeiSer, Idaho. The last three are
C. X. Mills. Elmer Turner and AL
Turner, and they were arrested at
Weiser yesterday afternoon by Depu-
ty United States Marshal Griffiths. He
will pass through Pendleton this even
ing bound for Portland with his pris-
oners.
]. II. Williams, the Portland men,
ber of the gang, was arrested by Dep
uty Marshal Glenn Bushee after the
secret service men had secured evil
dence connecting Williams with the
counterfeiting gang. Williams has
served several terms in prison for
counterfeiting, and has a record for
being one of the worst criminals OF
that class in the United States. The
same is true of Coon, the leader OF
the gang at Huntington. BY reason
of their long experience in the work,
both men were thoroughly familiar
with the usual tactics of the secret
service men. and were able to thwart
previous efforts to capture them.
One thing which made 1t difficult
for the officers to locate the Hunt
ington gang was the fact that neither
Of the principal men ever tried to Sc
cure supplies themselves. This work
was done by Johnson, one of the men
arrested at Huntington, and who wa.
not known to have any connection
with the gang until a short time ago
Williams, the man arrested in Port
land, is skilled mechanic, and while
operating there also did some work
for the Honeyman Hardware compa-
NY He maintained n little workship
for the purpose of Disgusting his real
business.
All OF the money manufactured by
the captured gang was in the form OF
SIS and $40 gold pieces. No paper
money and been made, but 1t is be-
lieved they were preparing to counter
felt currency also. Williams is said
to be an expert engraver.

Folding the Arms.

"Folding the arms across the chest
has long been associated with a proud
and self confident, not to say aggres-
sive, bearing" remarked a physician
the other day, "but in reality there are
neither physical nor moral grounds for
this association Of ideas. Folding the
arms tends to pull the shoulders for
ward, datten the. chest and impair
healthy breathing. If you fold your
arms often enough you will inevitably
get round shouldered and stick the
head out in front, than which nothing
could well be more ungainly or less
impressive. Folding the arms behind
the back is quite another proposition.
1t tends to chest expansion, a straight
neck and fat, straight back and is
one Of the best Of the gentle calisthenic
exercises in which women can indulge
with safety and profit"
