DESPERATE INDIAN GRAVES
Much Indignation Aroused by Work Of
GhouIs at Chemawa,
Oregon.

CHEMAWA, Or, Aug. 7.-Word has
been received here that more than 40
Indian graves have been desecrated in
South Salem, Oregon, in the vicinity of
Harbor. in Curry county, by parties
searching for Indian money and relics.
Some of the bodies dug up had not
been buried more than a year and a
half. The remains were scattered over
the ground and left for the dogs and
coyotes to devOur.
The Indians are very indignant over
the matter and have appealed to Su-
perintendent Frank Kyselka, the agent
of the Hoopa reservation, who has gen.
eral supervision over the Indians of
that neighborhood.
If the federal authorities will take a
hand in this it may go hard with the
ghouls. Four persons have been ar
rested by the local authorities on in
formation made, but the officials are
very Indifferent concerning the matter
and not much is expected to come of
the arrests.

Murderer Of Chris Long Calmly
Awaits Trial
THERE may Be DOUBLE HANGING
WARDEN OF IDAHO PENITEN
TIARY GETS THE ROPES
READY FOR TRIAL.

BOISE, Aug 7.-Between and Z
o'clock in the morning of next Friday
is the time scheduled for William
Henry Hicks Bond to die. He is to
be hanged at the state penitentiary for
the murder of Charles Daily in Boise on
the night of October 6, 1904.
At the same time it is possible that
Rudolph Wetter, the convicted muir
derer of John VAIN and Chris Long,
will also be called upon to pay the
death penalty by hanging. In Wetter's
case the date set for his execution was
August 6, but on that date a petition
for Communication of sentence to life
Imprisonment on the grounds that he
| was temporarily insane when he COM
! mitted the murders will be considered
! by the state pardon board and the war
den has been instructed not to hang
Wetter until after the meeting of the
board.
However the two ropes have been
| prepared, stretched, and the Stacks
| taken out so that everything will be
! in readiness for a double hanging on
August 10. providing the sentence of
Wetter is not committed.
Both men are said to be bearing up
wonderfully under the terrible strain
Wetter expresses hope that his death
sentence will not be carried out. He
| has great faith in Attorney Allen Miller
! who is presenting the petition before
the pardon board. But he is exceed
| ingly nervous.
| Bond was convicted of killing
| Charles Daily at whose home he was
living, because of jealousy. 1t was
shown in the trial that Bond and Jen-
ME Daily. wife of the victim, had beer
on intimate terms and that they had
conspired to kill the husband. The
| woman is now serving time in the pen
itentiary for the part she played in the
affair." 1t was her testimony, support
ed by other evidence, that was largely
| instrumental in convicting Bond.

ADVERTISING INDICATES

Until business is successful

Return Of Prairie City Expeditions
Recalls Early Mining History
TIN BUCKET WAS NEVER FouND
INTERESTING STORY
is WRECK OF THE BROTHER
JONATHAN.

BAKER CITY, Aug. THE return
of the Prairie City expedition of the
lost Blue Bucket diggings of the John
Day country at the head of which was
Will Reese, a well-known miner who
was in the city yesterday, recalls the
stories of other famous lost mines in
Oregon. The Blue Bucket diggings are
still INDICATED for the Prairie City par
ty could not find them, although they
found some good mining country.
Another of the unauthenticated lost
mines ranking almost with the Blue
Bucket diggings is that of the Tin
Bucket, Oregon's prize lost mine. 1t
is a story that has come down from
the palmy Hudson Bay days and is
still believed in by many.
Some say the location is in the
Cornucopia country along the Snake
river and some say it is on the Idaho
side. But it has defied relocation for
two generations.
The story is that a miner, getting
lost in the woods, located a placer bed
of fabulous richness in the bottom of
a stream. He had tin bucket along
that he was carrying for water and
when he made the find he loaded him.
self up with as many nuggets as he
could carry and hung the bucket on
the limb of a tree near the spot, ex-
pecting to return for it.
He got back to settlements and re-
fitting, started out to find the placer,
but either the bucket had been picked
up by some Indian, or there was some
thing wrong with the landmarks for he
was never able to get back to the
spot.
Some contend that the Sparta plac-
ers are the lost Tin Bucket grounds but
others will not concede this and are
still looking for an old, decayed tin
bucket filled with gold nuggets lying
at the base of a tree somewhere
through the Cornucopia and adjacent
mountains.
Lingard Lost Mine.
Contemporary with the lost Tin
Bucket mine and the Blue Bucket dig
gings is the Lost Lingard mine Of
southern Oregon, near the California
| line. Here miner became lost in the
| woods and reaching a beautiful lake
he stopped to drink. When he bent
| over to the water he was startled to
notice the bed of the lake covered with
nuggets He returned to the settle
ments and securing an outfit returned
to the rich find. But during his alb
sence a drenching downpour Of rain
had fallen and when he returned to
what he thought was the lake of gold
| he could find no nuggets at all, moth
lake.
Almost as interesting as the stories
of the lost mines of Oregon is the
story of the wreck of the Brother
Jonathan, a United States cruiser
which sailed up the Oregon coast dur
| ing the civil war with about $15O,OOO
in gold on board to pay off the soldiers.
This ship was wrecked off one of the
rocky points and went down with all
on board. Perennially divers come
from all parts of the world to search
for the lost ship and its treasures. A
few years ago a ships bucket bearing
the name Brother Jonathan on its
| side, was picked up on the Oregon
coast and this started anew the
search for the wrecked ship.

NOTES ON COTTON oRow1Ne.

About 10000 bales of cotton is this
years crop of the Laguna section of
Mexico. The Mexican mills will also
require an additional 10000 bales
from the United States during 1906.
The British charge in Guatemala
has forwarded to London a sample Of
wee~vil-resisting cotton grown in the
Retalhulen district of western Guate-
mala. 1t is called "Pachon," is a
s~hort-seaccn cotton, productive and
with a fiber of good length and tex
ture.
The Turkish minister of agriculture
is about to buy 1900 pounds of Amer
lean and Egyptian cotton seed for the
improvement of the quality of cotton
raised In Turkey. The seed will be
distributed in the provinces of Adana,
Adm and Salonika. according to the
Levant Herald.
The exports of raw cotton from
southern Nigeria in 1905 declined to
96,306 pounds, having been 285,639
pounds in 1904. This falling off Is ex-
pected to adjust itself during the pres
ent year, when the new plantations
will commence TO yield, states the
Government Gazette of the Nigeria
protectorate. 1t has also been re-
ported that there was some cotton
to be shipped from northern Nigeria.

GLASS IN DEMAND
Thousands Of Window Panes Were

The storm Saturday broke so many
windows in this city that the demand
for glass; at the stores of different
merchants exceeded all expectations.
Giaziers are rushed with work and
many stores have already had their
supply exhausted. AS early as Sat

glass home, and last night it was al
most impossible to secure glass at
any price.
Two or three enterprising young
men went to New York Sunday and
brought home a wagon load, peddling
the same yesterday from house to

Thousands of panes of glass were
broken and it will be a week or SC be-
fore all the damage is repaired. The
most difficult to get is the material
to fix the skylights.
