WRECK INJURIES 20 PEOPLE.
Great Northern Passenger Train Left
the Track at Milan and Coaches
Turned Over.


A special from Spokane says Of the
wreck of the passenger train on the
Great Northern two miles west Of
Milan, Wash, on Saturday evening,
in which 20 people were injured,
four seriously:
Great Northern passenger train No.
4. eastbound, was wrecked today two
miles west of Milan, Washington.
Twenty-nine were injured and four
may die. Many Spokane people were
on the train.
A sleeper, a day coach and diner
left the track and rolled over several
times. The engineer was able to
stop the engine IN time to prevent
the rest Of the cars from leaving the
rails. The cause Of the accident is
thought to be the spreading Of the
rails.
A great many passengers received
scratches, cuts and bruises. Eight
persons who reached here on a spe-
cial were carried on stretchers and
in amhulances to hospitals. A thou
sand people are at the depot looking
for friends and relatives.
The officials here say the track
was recently inspected. SO there must
have been a defect In the rail. The
train was going 25 miles an hour.
Conductor Charles Hollingsworth
was the worst hurt. He is expected
to die any hour. He was in the smok-
or when It plunged into the ditch.

ESCAPED CONVICT is CAUGHT.
Identified by Peculiar Manner Of
Swallowing Food.

Joe Kelley, an escaped convict from
the Washington state penitentiary,
was arrested here Saturday evening
by Marshal Tom Gurdane through
whose vigilance $50 reward money
was secured for the local police force.
Kelley was taken back to Walla Walla
yesterday by guard from the peni-
tentiary and he is now once more
wearing stripes.
The arrest of Kelley was remarka-
i 5le through tie fact that his identity
was not learned from anything given
on the official circular sent out from
the penitentiary. The prisoner bore
very slight resemblance to the pic
tire exhibited and would have passed
detection had it not been for a pecul-
iarity in eating. While talking with
guard from the penitentiary Mar
shall Gurdane learned that owing to
throat trouble Kelley is forced to
throw his head back while eating. On
Saturday the escape was among the
city Jail prisoners at work under Com
missioner Fletcher and the latter no.
ticed the peculiar manner Of Kelley
while he was being fed at the Star
restaurant. When he mentioned the
matter to the chief of police the Of
ficer recalled the statement made by
the guard concerning Kelley.
When placed under arrest for be-
ing an escaped prisoner Kelley at
once admitted his identity and he was
then taken to the county Jail for the
night.

tural college. The aisles were filled
with seats and people were turned
away from the door, so great was the
interest in this entertainment.
Prof Horner showed about 100
views of the holy land, Rome, Egypt,
Greece and other far eastern coun-
tries, accompanying the views with a
brief descriptive lecture, making the
evening one of rare entertainment and
instruction.
The views were taken by Prof. Hor-
ner, who spent 80 days in the holy
land and the Mediterranean countries
last year, and were especially selected
for their historical interest.
1t is hoped that teachers institutes
of Oregon will come to recognize the
value of this excellent collection of
historical views and that at some fu-
ture time a more extended and thor
ough exhibit may be made in this
city.

patent from the government and that
their lands were classed as agricul-
tural land by the government and
therefore they claim the flooded
lands are loss to them and they are
entitled to damages If not full COM
pensation in every case.
Herein enters the complications
in the legal phase of the proposition.
Some time ago many of these same
ranchers along the Occur d'Alene
river brought suit against the mining
companies, claiming their meadows
had been ruined by tailings floating
down the river. These affidavits
have been collected by the water
company and it is claimed they will
be introduced as evidence by the
company should the ranchers bring
suit against the latter.
Meanwhile the tailings suit is still
in court. During May the case was
heard in the United States court by
Judge Warren Truitt, master in chan
cery, and referred to Judge Beatty
who decided in favor Of the mining
company. The ranchers have ap-
piled to the circuit court of appeals
at San Francisco where the case Is
still pending. 1t is claimed perhaps
5000 acres are submerged which will
yield about one and one-half tons per
acre, which at SIS per ton would
mean s112,5OO involved every year.

retailers in the smaller cities and as
result he will have q much brighter
stock this fall than usual.

WATER DAMAGE SUIT
200 Ranchers Own 5000 Acres SUBJ
merged Lands.

2OU ItunclerS oNh oVVV hSiSo i1"u-
merged Lands.
The latest developments in what is
destined to yet become famous litiga-
ton are outlined by the Occur
dAlene Press as follows:
One of the most extensive and per-
haps complicated law suits ever
brought in this county by people of
the st. Joe and Coeur d'Alene rivers
and lake country, is now threatened.
Perhaps 200 ranchers are directly
interested, having their living and
very homes at stake.
1t is claimed there are fully 5000
acres lying along the Occur dAlene
river alone, of very valuable meadow
land which is now completely sub
merged in water. In the Wolf
Lodge country and other lake regions
may be added another large area of
meadow covered with grass but now
beneath the lake. Along the st. Joe
river are other districts of lesser
acreage, the grand total amounting
to many thousand acres of choice
meadow land, absolutely worthless
under the present conditions al
though the grass has grown in form
er years.
During August, heretofore, he
ranchers have harvested their hay
crops which usually gave them from
one to two tons per acre, worth not
less than from $40 to SIS per ton
This year there is no prospect Of cut
ting any hay inasmuch as from two
to three feet Of water now covers th'
grass and this is low water mark
In many of these cases the rancherI
have all their possessions of any value
submerged. The winter feed fo
their stock will be cut short and en-
tlrely destroyed.
These ranchers claim the higl
water is produced by the dam Of thu
Washington Water Power compan!
at Post Falls. This Is generally con
ceded to be the true state of affairs
Boatmen who have been here fol
years, claim the water is three tc
four feet higher than usual at this
time of year. While this is of much
value to the boatmen, 1t is proving
ruinous to the adjacent ranchers along
the rivers and lake, who propose to
take legal steps to remove the dam OF
recover damages.
Tomorrow over so ranchers have
planned to hold a meeting at Harri-
son in order to determine the future
course of action. These will chiefly
come from the Coeur dAlene river;
however, others will be in attend
ance.
The Washington Water Power com.
pany claims It has a right to dam UT
the lake even to a greater depth
This right, the company alleges it de-
rived from Post who, they claim, de-
rived the privilege from the govern
ment when he took his homestead al
Post Falls in the '70s. They claim
they have not as yet exercised all their
rights but will when the proper time
comes should occasion demand.
On the other hand, 1t is claimed by
the ranchers, that they took their
homesteads in good faith, received q

Manufacturing
False Gems

r. HE success with which art can
copy nature in the manufacture OF
counterfeit gems is something re-
|markable. There are several processes
used in the imitation OF precious stones.
one OF them being the method OF Pre-
ducing what are called "douolets-"
These are topazes on which q thin
slice of diamond is laid. The topaz
gives depth TO the composition. and
the diamond adds luster and the result
is sold as a very satisfactory diamond
Zircons are composed OF silica and
zirconia. and their value Is compara-
lively trifing. Their luster is very de-
ceptive. and a means has been discover
ed of extracting their color that leaves
them diamonds. to all appearances. al
though their falseness proclaims ITSELF
under tests. Precious stones are fire.
quently dyed. and with such thorough
ness that the stones may be broken
without ones discovering any PROOF or

The village OF Oberstein. not far
from the Rhine, devotes itself to the
making of imitation jewelry and the
dyeing of chalcedony and other stones.
The onyx. carnelian, blOOdstone and
agate may be enriched in color BY I'M
mersion in the dye pot. The stones
are placed in vessels containing the
coloring matter and then subjected to
a great heat for periods varying from
a few hours to fortnight or more.
