Why Mary PauIinski Failed to Appear
as Witness Against George
SACK at Centralia
ISack at Central

CENTRALIA, Oct. 1S.-Judge Rice
has decided that 14-year-old Mary
Paulinski was not responsible for ner
failure to appear in court as prose-
cutting witness against George E.
Slack, charged with assault. Mary told
the judge that B. r. Gibson, restaur-
ant man, persuaded her to leave town
so as to avoid being present at the
trial. She said that Lillian TOvoy, a
17-year-old girl of Centralia also was
instrumental in getting ner out of the
way. Miss Paulinski says that Glib
son and Miss Tovoy met her with a
buggy near the South school in this
city. She got into the buggy with
them and was driven to the farm of
Gibson's father, near Bucoda, where
she was detained until after the case
against Slack had been called.
The judge has placed the Paulinski
girl under bonds to appear against
Slack at the next term of court and
has appointed Attorney Harmon to
look after her interests.

T. r. Berry, locating engineer for the
Grande Ronde Water company, who
came in from the mountains suffering
from an injury received in a mountain
slide, says a Baker City, Ore, report.
In surveying for attitudes, reservoir

discovered a mountain peak named
Eagle Chief, between Imnaha and the
head of Minum river, 40 miles north
east of Baker City, that measures
higher than Mount Hood, which is
11,225 feet, and thus becomes the
highest mountain in Oregon.
Eagle Chief is perpetually snow-clad
and is surrounded by a chain of 40
lakes, amidst Alpine scenery. Aneroid
measurements will be corrected in the

CHARLES COLE SEES THINGS
Portland Man Declares He Has
Strange Visitors
PEOPLE OF MARS CALL UPON HIM
COLE Is VERY SERIOUS IN HIS
ASSERTIONS AND GIVES
DETAILS.
PEOPLE Of MARS CALL UPON HIM

"Since the first day of January,
1901 says Charles Cole, who lives at
the New Grand Central hotel. 81 have
had several visits from inhabitants of
both Mars and Jupiter" says the Port
land Telegram.
Mr.. Cole is very serious in his as
sertions and can give full details as to
the habits, customs and social condi-
ton of the population of not only
Mars, but Of Jupiter and Saturn.
'They," he continues, "are mingling
with the people of this world every
day, trying to better our conditions,
but not revealing themselves to us be-
cause of our superstitious nature,
which will not at this time safely per-
nit such novel revelation"
Earth's people must first be care
fully prepared for the ordeal by a
book which has already been made
ready by Mr.. Cole under the super
vision Of these spirits from the outer
planets. This book will be published
as soon as it is found that we are
ready for it and have come to that
point where we can receive it with
an enlightened comprehension.
According to Mr.. Cole, there are
three distinct types or races on Mars,
one of which is only 10 inches in
height, another is two feet and is known
and distinguished from the others as
the amusement race, while the third
is 5 1-2 feet.
"In fact" Mr.. Cole mentions Incl
dentally, "all the inhabitants live on
music"
The population of Saturn, on the
other hand, are mammoth in proper
tons, "as big as mountains says our
learned friend, while the people of
Jupiter are never larger than six feet,
which height they attain at the age
Of 40.
The physical appearance of the differ
ent planets is another interesting fea-
ture upon which Mr. Cole is well in
formed. Saturn is of a peculiar soft
and f1abby material and the innabi-
tants resemble this makeup some
themselves.
81 have conclusive proof that there
are inhabitants of Mars with us on
EARTH" declared Mr.. Cole, 'but as 1
said before the evidence must be with
held until our minds are prepared.
These people have been with us a long
time; they appear as strangers on the
streets and perhaps influence us in our
daily affairs
Charles Cole mas been living at the
New Grand Central hotel for the last
three years. He is a man of nearly
20 years of age and a machinist by
trade. but has devoted his time in late
years to the composition Of the book
containing the ideas which he firmly
believes have been transmitted to him
through spirits from the planets Mars,
Jupiter and Saturn.

People Are Becoming Excited and
Will Stampede in Spring.
The gold at Trout Lake is increas-
ing rather than diminishing as time
goes on, says the White Salmon En-
terprise, John Wyers came in the
other day and says pack horses are at
a premium out there, and that anything
in the shape of horse
will bring good price. The
country in which the gold is found
is near a body of water known as
Salt Lake and said to be about a days
journey, perhaps Is miles, from Trout
Lake. The mines are described as
rotten quartz from which the gold can
be picked with the point of knife.
There are also some placer mines being
discovered. Everybody around Trout
Take is becoming excited over the
reports being brought in and it is pre-
dicted that there will be a stampede
for the mines yet this fall. There is
already quite a number of prospectors
in the field and the number is being
added to daily.

SECRETARY BOB BACON.

business Man and Diplomat Once
known Ms ''the Greek God"
Robert Bacon, who figures with Sec
rotary Taft as peace commissioner
In Cuba, graduated from business into
diplomacy without taking the usual
preliminary course in politics. Prior
to year ago he was chiefly known
as a business man and partner of J..
Pierpont Morgan. Prior to that he
was known as an athlete who while
at Harvard enjoyed repute for his
prowess on the gridiron. Mr.. Roose-
welt knew him then, but never imagin-
ed that his college friend would help
him some time In the solution of a
difficult International situation. When
Mr.. Bacon was picked for first assist
ant secretary Of state on the retirement
of Francis B. LOOMS from that post
surprise was expressed because of his
lack Of experience in diplomacy. His
choice was explained by some on the
ground that Secretary Root wanted to
put the state department on a more
business-like basis and thought Mr..
Bacon, with his knowledge of foreign
commercial affairs, could help him.
When Secretary Root started on his
tour of South America Mr.. Bacon be-

go to the stern Of the boat and fell
overheard The launch was running
full speed. When Mr.. Heiser came to
the surface and got the water out of
his eyes his launch was speeding mer-
rily along a couple of hundred yards
from him. Shore seemed an awfully
long way off and the water was GER
tainly cold. While the hapless victim
trod water and watched the launch
he noticed that it was not going in a
straight direction but was gradually
sailing in a circle.
"Say," chartered Mr.. Heiser to him
self, that blamed thing is coming
right back here after a WHILE" and
then he began to evolve in his brain
some scheme for boarding a runaway
launch going ten miles an hour. The
launch rapidly described a circle
a half mile in diameter, and to further
show it's tractability the engine stop
ped sparkling and the craft finally
came to a standstill about 100 feet
from the swimmer. Mr.. Heiser clam
bered aboard the runaway, primed the
engine, cranked it and started it up
without a buck.

George Strong, formerly cash fer of a bank at DeVall's Bluff, who is under indictment on the charge of embedding the funds of that institution, has been To- cated in Spanish Honduras, but owing to the fact that there is no extradition treaty between that country and the United States it is doubtful if he will ever be brought back for trial.
 After his indictment, Strong, who is we'll known throughout the state, was released on SlO,- 900 bond, which he furnished with Congressman Joe T. Rob- inson and J. G. Thweatt, both of Lonoke, as sureties. Strong then left Arkansas, and has since been fugitive from justice.
