TRAGEDY of a Lost Shell.

The Natal Mercury (South Africa)
tells the story of Boer farmer named
Moolman, who found Al naval shell
lying on the veldt unexploded, and
took it home to his sister. She want
ed the shell for decoration purposes
and began to dig out the lyddite, and
to soften it, poured cold water on it.
The lyddite and water began to effer-
vesce, and the girl went indoors, and,
from the end of the passage, watched
the she'll, which lay upon the door
step.
Suddenly there was a terrific explo-
sion. Miss Moolman fell dead, struck
in the breast by piece of the shell.
The whole house was wrecked, every
pane of glass, every window frame,
and every door being cast to the
ground, and most of the furniture be-
ing upset and smashed.

EDITOR MITCHELL DEAD.

R. G. Mitchell, editor of the Duluth
Tribunal, is dead. Although he bad
passed the allotted span of life, he was
IN full enjoyment Of full mental and
physical health up to within few hours
of his death. It is noteworthy that in
the last issue of his paper the parts not
given over to the loving words Of old
friends that he left behind are occupied
by the departed editors own writings,
in the well-known vigorous style that
gained him reputation many years ago
The Duluth News Tribune reports bis
death as follows:
Duluth was stricken with heavy loss
yesterday (26th inst.) when death visited
the home of R. G. Mitchell and took
from life that valiant friend of man.

Gen. Stoessel has been indicted for
-glorifcation, and now he probably
wonders what's the use of being hero
if you can't throw out your chest.
An Indiana woman who hadn't spoken
to man in seventy years, died recently
at the age of ninety five. Still, mighty
few women would care to prolong their
lives at such cost.
The supreme court has decided the
contest for the office of sheriff of St.
Louis county in favor of VIM. J. Bates,
the present incumbent. The court was
divided in it's opinion, two of the judges
dissenting.
A big smelter at Jerome. Ariz., is clos
ed down because the ground upon
which it Is built is sinking. It has been
sinking more or less for five years and
the plant is now considered in danger of
falling through.
O o g
VIM. D. Haywood. PRESIDENT of the
Western Federation of Miners, was &C.
quilted of the charge of being implicated
in the murder of former Governor
Steunenperg of Idaho. The trial lasted
nearly three months and was one of the
greatest murder cases in the history of
the country.
A Hebrew grocer in St. Paul was fined
for keeping his store open on Sunday
His defense was that he observed Satur-
day as the Sabbath and that he had
therefore not violated the law. The
court decided that the legislature, in de-.
fnirg the word "Sabbath," had in mind
the day generally regarded as the Sab
bath by a majority of the people, and
that it did not legislate for the minority.
To do so would, he remarked, result in
endless confusion.
The real value of the law passed by
the legislature of 1905. giving the dairy
foou department the right to seize ship
ments of food products into the state,
has never been better exempiifed than
just recently. An Inspector of this de-
pastment tied up a shipment of goods
from Hitchcock, Hill & Co., Chicago.
Out of 50 samples of different products
taken from one shipment only two COM
piled with the pure food laws. Every
one of the so packages we're short
weight, thus clearly demonstrating that
the fraud was not accidentally accom-
plished.

SUBSCRIBE FOR INVESTIGATION
Walla Walla Stockmen To Probe the
Pacific Live Stock Company.

The farmers in Walla Walla county,
as we'll as those over the line in Ore
gon, are much exercised over the fail
ure of the Pacific live stock associa-
tion, which had over 100000 worth
of policies in force at the time it's fail
ure was announced. L. o. Webster.
the representative of the defunct asso-
citation says that the stockmen in that
section are very much in earnest in
the matter and they will probe the
matter to the bottom. regardless of
expense. Several days ago prominent
stockmen to the number of 25 pledged
$1,000 each to defray the expense of a
thorough investigation of the affairs
of the association and the conduct,
of the officials. Since that time many
others have expressed willingness to
subscribe tothe fund. They all have
the utmost confidence in J. e. Mason,
the new agent at Latah, and believe
the statements given out by him for
publication are true. Mr. Webster
says that while no meeting of the
stockmen interested in the association
has been held yet. they are coming in
to his Office daily at the rate of 10 to
30. and the law firm of Garrecht &
Duuphy has been engaged to look after
their interests. These gentlemen have
written the receiver for report of the
condition of the association, but as
yet have heard nothing from him.
Newton Wheeler and Dan Donovan,
farmers near Walla Walla, are out
about $500 lately paid for policies in
the defunct company. Whatever maS
be the outcome of this association. il
seems quite probable that either re-
organization of this company will be
effected or new one formed, as the
stockmen feel the need of good. reli.
able company in which they can in
sure their stock.

GRANDMOTHER IN POORHOUSE
Pathetic Incident Brought to Public
Light at Heppner.

''Over the hill to the poor house
I'm trudgin my weary way"
If Will Carleton had been in Hepp.
ner last week be could have found the
theme for poem with better ending
than "Over the Hill to the Poor
nouse," says the Heppner Gazette.
It was the last chapter of sad
story when on old mother bowed down
with the weight of years and sickness
was taken from the county poor house
and her heart was again made warm
by the love and care of her children,
in this city last week.
The old lady was first married
when young to man by the name of
Rinehart. From this union there
were two boys and dsughter.
Mr.. Rinehart died. In time Mrs.
Rinehart was married again to Jay
johnson and came to Morrow county.
where they resided for number of
years. In the meantime the daughter
was married and the sons drifted from
place to place. All neglected to write
and the final result was that the me-
ther and children became separated
entirely. knowing nothing of the
whereabouts of each other.
Several months ago Mr.. johnson
went East and died. The old lady
was left alone, old and helpless and
there was only one alternative--tha
poor house.
The Rinehart boys had located in
( the Okanogan country.
"A short time ago the boys decided
to find out where their mother was.
The last word was from Heppner and
one of the boys came direct from
Okanogan country to this city.
The whole situation was soon real
ized. The mother was in the poor
house.
The brother and sister were advised
of the facts and came to Heppner
The old lady was taken away and will
make her home with her daughter a

bers of the association. which has re-
Gently been incorporated under the
laws of the state of Oregon.
Bids were received from eastern and
Seattle firms. but the Portland firm
being the lowest bidder, received the
big order. The price paid for the
sacks is not given, but it is learned
that, in accordance with the contract,
the price is not to exceed Ia cents.
Morrow county farmers have applied
for membership in the association, and
by wire Saturday. requested that "a
900 sacks be reserved for them.
Saturdays meeting was the first
since the incorporation articles were
fed, The following officers were
elected: @. A. Barrett, president; Fl.
9. Willis, secretary; James Johns,
treasurer; j. 0. Hales, vice-president.

Ordinance Which Makes Them
Liable to Fine,
]. ". DAVIS CASE IS SETTLED
The Mayor and City Council Cause
New Ordinance to Be
Drafted For Passage.

The Davis case was settled Saturday
night and did not come to trial Mon
day. W. NJ. Peterson, attorney for
Mr.. Davis entered plea of guilty to
the Stone charge before Recorder
Richards. Mr.. Davis turned over his
license and the other charges against
him were dismissed.
The mayor, four councilmen and
the prosecutors were present at the
time. After the matter was settled
the subject of law relating to selling
liquor to minors was discussed by the
city officials.
Mayor Plamondon and the city
council are in favor of an ordinance
that will make it misdemeanor, pun
ishable by fine or Imprisonment, for
any minor to drink or loiter in a sa-
loon; or to be found on the streets or
in any public place in the city of
Athena in an intoxicated condition.
With this object in view, Attorney
Peterson has been instructed by the
mayor to draft an ordinance covering
the points desired. The ordinance
will be drafted in time for reading
and passage at the next regular meet
ing of the council.
It will be based on sections 1879
and 1881 of the general statutes of
the state of Oregon. Section 1879
deals with minors inducing persons
to sell them liquor by representing
themselves to be 81 years of age, and
section 1881 makes it unlawful for
any minor under the age of 18 years tc
smoke or in any way use any cigarette
or tobacco in any form whatsoever il
any public highway, street. place
square, or resort.
| 1t is the purpose of the city officials
| to observe the provisions of the ordi
nance as stringently as possible an6
| the measure will embrace regulations
that will make the minor obtaining
liquor equally as guilty as the one
| selling the liquor.
1t is thought that with such an ordi-
nance in effect and strictly enforced,
| the selling of liquor to minors in
Athena will be stamped out.
It's poor law that will not work
both ways and the only ordinance the
city has at present, relative to liquor
selling to minors is all on the side of
the minor. He can "booze" all be
wants to, and is immune from arrest
so long as he performs no act of dis
orderly conduct. But the one whc
sells him the liquor may be 'caught
up" and on conviction. fined and Iii
license revoked. which would be JUS
and proper. with the law applied tC
the minor, also.
1t is to make the minor liable also
that the new ordinance is to be passed

WAREHOUSE BILL IS SIGNED
Makes Grain Handling In Idaho Uni
form With Other States,

One of the last bills to be signed by
Governor Gooding, of Idaho aud yet
one of which more vitality affects every
farmer of that state than any other
bill passed. is that relative to the stor
age of grain in warehouses;, making
the receipt negotiable and exempting
the grain from seizure tor debts of the
warehouse proprietor.
The bill provides for the appoint
meut of grain commission which is
to work in conjunction with similar
bodies in Washington and Oregon.
This commission is supposed to estab-
lish a grade for all grains each year,
and to take quantity of samples OF
such grades, to he supplied to grain
dealers free of charge. 1t is the pur-
pose Of the law to have the Idaho
commission do it's grading on par
with the grades established in Oregon
aud Washington, 80 that buyer in
one state will he familiar with the
grades in another.
When farmer takes his grain to u
warehouse he receives a receipt for the
same, showing the grade Of the grain
and the variety. The receipt is nego-
table, which was not a condition
under the old law. and the grain once
stored in warehouse is exempt from
taxation.
Under the old law the receipt issued
Ey the warehouse man simply showed
the variety of grain received and either
the weight or number Of sacks. The
receipt was not negotiable, and the
grain was subject to any debt held by
the warehouse man against the crop.
