HEAToN RETAINS LAND
Embraces Valuable Tract ON Lake
shore Near Beauty bay.

Embraces Valuable Tract on Lake
shore Near Beauty hay.
The local land ONCE is in receipt
Of decision from the secretary Of
the interior In the case of Jesse A.
Nichols vs.. w. Heaton.
The land involved in the case is
situated in township - north, range
3 west, and entry was made for 1t
under the homestead law by Heaton
March 16, 1904. On April 10, 1905,
Nichols began a contest against the
entry made by Heaton, alleging
abandonment OF the land on his part,
and that he had failed to establish
the residence required by the home
stead law on the land. At the hear
ing Of the contest the evidence sub
mitted showed that Heaton was en-
ployed as a clerk In the store of
John w. Graham in Spokane, that
he and his wife had taken up their
residence on the land in the month
of July and resided and cultivated
and improved the land until some
time in September. Heaton and his
wife then moved back to Spokane,
because of the inclement climatic
conditions prevailing. the illness of
members of his family, and because
he was unable to make a liyIihood
upon the land for himself and those
dependent upon him. During the
winter of 19O4-O5 he visited the
land several times. and also after
the initiation OF the contest, and
made further improvements. The
local officers held that he had failed
to establish such a residence upon
the land as the law required, and
recommended the cancellation OF his
entry. An appeal was taken to the
commissioner, who reversed the de-
cision of the local officers, and the
case was then carried to the secre-
tary. The secretary's decision is an
affirmance of the decision made by
the commissioner. The commission
er in brief held that, while Heaton' s
presence on the land prior to the in
itiation of contest was the excep-
ton rather than the rule, his abb
sences were not inconsistent with
good faith, because they were neces-
sary by reason of the climatic condi-
lions, the i'll health of members of
the Heaton family. and his inability
to make living on the land. The
decision is of interest, because 1t is
an exception to the general rule fol-
lowed in the land office, and because
in their decision the secretary and
commissioner both clearly indicate
that where climatic conditions are
bad. illness exists in the entryman's
family, and a livelihood can not be
made upon the land at any season
of the year. that absences occasioned
by them will not operate as a for
fixture of the land.

ney for HeatOn.

method of connecting the company's

sewer. In the event that the council
grants a permit to the company to

install for the company a system Of
this character.

capital city. They carried presents with them, as
they had already received gold from him.
when arrived we found him lying in his
bed according to their custom, hanging in the air.
the bed being made of cotton like net He did
not rise, but from the bed made a semblance of
courtesy, best he knew how He showed much
feeling, with tears in his eyes, at the death of
the Christians, and began to talk of it, showing,
the best he could, how some died of sickness, and
how others had gone to Canoaboa to seek for the
gold mine, and that they had been killed there
and how the others had been killed in their town..
He presented to the Admiral some gold and
precious stones. One of the accounts says that
there eight hundred beads of a stone called
ciba, one hundred of gold, golden coronet, and
three small caabashes filled with gold dust
Columbus, in return made him a present.
Il and a navy surgeon were there says Dr.
Chanca. "The Admiral said that we were
learned in the infirmties of men, and asked if
he would show us the wound. He replied that
it pleased him to do so. l said that it would
be necessary, if he could for him to go out
of the house, since with the multitudes of people

it was dark, and we could not see well. He
did it Immediately, as l believe, more from timd-
ity than from choice. The surgeon came to him
and began to take off the bandage. Then he
said to the Admiral that the injury was caused
by cibd. that is by a stone. When 1t was
unbandaged we managed to examine it. 1t is
certain that he more injured in that
leg than in the other, although he pretended that
it very painful"
But it seemed certain that an attack of some
enemy upon these Indians had taken place, and
the Admiral determined to continue upon good
terms with them. Nor did he change this policy
toward Guacanagari. How far that chief had
tried to prevent the massacre will never be
known. The detail of the story fully
drawn from the natives. The Spaniards had been
cruel and licentious in their dealing with the
Indians. They had quarreled among themselves,
and the indignant natives, in revenge, had de-
stroyed them ALL
Columbus now bent his energies in effort to
get a quantity of gold to send back to Spain
to satisfy the people as to the extravagant claims
made for his discovery. He chose for new
city elevation, ten leagues east OF Monte
Christi and at first gave to his colony the name
of Martha. 1t is the Isabella of the subsequent
history. But colonizng with court favorites was
a bad deal. Columbus lost his popularity, and
mutiny broke out which had to be suppressed
by strong measures. Later he appointed his
brother and Pedro Margarita governors of the
colony and went on an exploring expedition to
Cuba At the same time he cruised about dis
covering other islands and luckily encountering his
brother Bartholomew, whom he had not seen for
eight years and who had been sent out with a
fleet by the Spanish sovereigns to provision the
new colony. Columbus Immediately made him
his first lieutenant in command OF the colony.
