SPOKANE
BACHELOR DIES
Employed AuthOrities to Put Pecu.
liar Epitaph Over His
Grave.

Spokane, Wash, April flames
Woolery, a pioneer packer, once
wealthy, but during the last few
years a public charge at Lewiston
Ida, southwest of Spokane, left a
request when he died a few days ago
imploring the authorities to place
the following epitaph on his tomb
stone:
A bachelor lies beneath this sod,
Who disobeyed the law of God;
Advice to others which l give:
Don't live a bachelor as l did live.
Woolery was 81 years of age and
was known as a woman-hater during
the years he was in the Snake Rive
country. Nothing is known of his
former home or antecedents, but it
is believed that he was Tilted by the
one girl when a young man in the
east. He had never known the joys
of home life, and until becoming a
ward of the state he lived in tent.
Several years ago he expressed him
self freely to an acquaintance, say
ing he was tired of living alone.
This preyed upon his mind and
shortly afterwards he was sent to
the almshouse, where he passed the
remainder of his days in advocating
marriage.

DEAK BROWN
NEED NOT PAY
Jury Says Lamb-Davis Co. Cannot
Collect from Him for Runaway
Logs.-New Trial Asked.

The jury in the action started by
the Lamb-Davis Co. of Leavenworth
against 'Deak" Brown of Monitor
has found for the defendant. The
lumber company, it will be remem-
bered, sued to recover $21O from
Brown, being the estimated value of
floating logs alleged by the plaintiff
to have escaped from it's broken
dam and been unlawfully converted
by Brown to his own use.
Considerable testimony was intro
duced by both sides as to the identi-
ty of the logs in question:; the fact
that the Lamb-Davis company's logs
were not branded in all cases, and
there were other peoples logs in the
river at the same time was shown
by the defendants lawyers, Corbin,
LudingtOn & Kemp.
Testimony was also introduced to
show that an agent of the Leaven-
worth company had visited the vari-
Gus farmers along the Wenatchee
river onto whose premises runaway
logs had been washed and had dick
cred with them as to the removal of
these logs. 1t was also alleged that
he told Brown if the logs were not
removed before the snow melted that
Brown might keep them. The de-
fendant alleged that he had offered
the lumber company permission to
come and take off the logs that were
marked with it's brand
The verdict for the defendant
Brown in this case is of much inter-
est to many ranchers around Moni-
tor, several of whom attended the
trial. They are in the same fix as
Deak Brown, in that runaway logs
were deposited on their land during
the freshet a year ago.
Reeves & Reeves, attorneys for
the plaintiff, have filed motion for
a new trial.
An action similar to the above,
and state by the same plaintiff, is
now pending against ]. Jones,
rancher on the river
