for the presence of mind Of railroao
men, it would have crashed into the
Spokane and Lewiston train which was
steaming up the hill from the opposite
direction. When the crew of the train
switching at Mccoy saw hat the car
was rolling rapidly down the hill they
cut off the engine and endeavored to
catch it. The car was going at a
frightful rate Of speed, and, seeing that
it was useless to attempt to reach it,
the trainmen telephOned to the agent
at Rosalia. The agent, E.. K. CAMPER,
and his assistant rushed to the upper
and lower switches respectively. The
agent reached the upper switch, which
is located about a mile above the de-
pot, just in time to send the runaway
car crashing into a string of box cars.
Had he not been in time his assistant
was in readiness to open the lower
switch ad send he a of wheat into
a box car loaded with dynamite which
stood on the sidetrack. The up-bound
passenger train rolled into the depot
exactly foul minutes after the car had
been derailed.

INDIAN Lucrs RICH DRESS
Squaw On Trial for Murder at Lewis
ton Has Elk Tooth Garment
Worth $4,000.

A Nez Perez Indian woman, who
is now held at Lewiston, Idaho, for
the murder of Henry Carsaw, a fell
low tribesman, has a fetching gown
which should make any woman in the
United States green with envy, mas
much as it is said to be worth $780,
900.
Lucy's garment consists of about
500 elk teeth. They are arranged in
rows, according to the artistic inclina-
ton of the Nez Perez. The garment
is an old one, having been given to
the woman by one Of her parents. Ac-
cording to her story, some of the elk
teeth were gathered after hunts by
her grandparents.
Inasmuch as elk teeth today are
worth from IS to $50 apiece, according
to their markings and how they match
other teeth, the. ornamentations OF
Lucy's garment have a real and intrin-
sic value far above hat usually worn
by the average Indian maiden or Won
an.
Buffalo Bill had a coat covered in
elk teeth several years ago, which was
the envy of many. Since that time the
teeth nave greatly increased in value.

GIRL WOULD Be an ENGINEER
Miss Henrietta Snyder, A Young New
Yorker, Has Unusual Ambition
For Future.

ALBANY, N. Y, Dec. 1910 be a
locomotive engineer is the ambition Of
Miss Henrietta Snyder of Columbia
county. She has a certificate show
ing she is competent to fire a locomo-
tive and has applied to Frank Reese,
the New York Central station master
here, for a job. She believes that af-
ter she has fired for a few months
she will be capable of handling the
throttle.
The young woman is 25 years old, 5
feet 6 inches in height, weights 100
pounds and is a decided blonde. This
is how she views the subject: 81 love
an engine so much that when it is
carrying me On a journey I can feel
its every pulsation. Now that I can
understand that I can even follow the
engineers action as it affects his iron
steed. The pleasure is one Of perfect
satisfaction, since I long myself to be
at tiC AlOltlS, dIu L Is LUZ ludI emu
that I wish to serve the apprenticeship
of a fireman. Women are invading
every walk of business. Why not on
the railroad?
"Ethically 1 have the right. Physi-
cally, too, 1 can claim it. 1 am no,
heavy, but every bit Of me is muscle.
1 wear a No. 8 shoe, but the calf of
my leg measures Is inches in circum-
ference-all muscle. The muscles Of
my back are strong. They nave never
been artificially braced by the use of
a corset. The six or seven tons of
coal l would shovel a trip would be
child's play-probably not more than
Is pounds at a shovel. 1 am the cham

TILLAMOOK, Or, Dec. ia young
man named l.. j. Arstell, is in the
county Jail, a self confessed bank forg-
err. He had been employed as night
Waterman at the sawmill Of the Tilla-
nook Lumber company, in this city,
but recently quit. This week he was
at Beaver, about ~ miles south Of
this city, where he cashed a check at
the store of j.. BixbS for $35, made pay
able to Joh Almond, n signed by
NJ. Leach. The check was cashed by
Z. X. Gilbert, who had charge of the
store there, and who became suspi-
cious after he had lone so, and wired
to Mr.. Leach, who has a meat market
in this city. Finding that the check
was a forgery he at once informed
Sheriff Crenshaw, and within one and
one-half hours the latter had his man
behind the bars.
1t took some hustling to get him.
Instead of making a dash out of the
county, via Dolph, Arstell rode as fast
as possible to Tillamook, little dream
ing hat the sheriff had been notified
and ~purposed. leaving on the evening
stage for North Yamhill. Sheriff Cren-
shaw and Deputy Sheriff Holden sta
toned themselves on the trestle south
of town, but as he failed to appear
the sheriff went to a nearby house, to
see whether he had taken another road.
While he was gone Arstell came across
the trestle at a lively gait, and as
Deputy Sheriff Holden attempted to
catch the horses rein, urged the
horse past the officer. The sheriff saw
Arstell pass as he was at the phone,
and not knowing he intended to
leave on the stage, ordered two sad
die horses at the barn. Arstell left his
horse at another barn, and by a side
street managed to catch the North
Yamhill stage.
The sheriff and deputy overlook the
stage about two miles out. At first the
stage driver refused to stop. and also
point out the last passenger to take
a seat. Arstell refused to walk back at
first, and eventually the sheriff made
him get on the same horse with him.
Arstell at first gave his name as John
Almond, but as he was identified. he
owned up that his name was l.. ].
Arstell. Next morning he pleaded guilty
and Justice White bound him over to
the circuit court at $1,000, and he was
taken back to Jail.
When Arstell was arrested he had
no money on him, but when the mail
carrier returned to the city he brought
back a purse which was found on the
stage, in which was s63.S0, and much
to the surprise of Sheriff Crenshaw and
