vile. Chemawa and Macleay, formerly
dry, reverted to the wet column. AS
there were two salons at Macleay tive
years ago before the prohibitionists
won there. these two saloons Will
likely be reestablshed.
Five precincts in the city Of Salem
went dry and the whole city missed
going dry by but so votes. All three
Sllverton precincts are dry, besides the
following rural precincts: Aumsville,
Elkhorn, jefferson, Mehama, Stay
ton, Liberty, Rosedale, SCOTS Mills
and Turner. In two precincts. Brett
enbush and Marion the vote was a
tie and the judge decided they would
remain wet. Mehama went dry by
one vote. In the dry Salem precincts
there we're no saloons.
No protests were offered at the ses-
sion Of the county court when the pro-
hibition vote was canvassed this af-
ternoon. The protestants who held
that the ballot was made up wrong,
retreated from their position. A tech
nical defect was found, however. In
the petition calling for the subdivl-
sion vote in Silverton. But as all the
precincts went dry in the subdivision
this discovery was of no avail, for
the precincts were voted dry under
the county petition, which was not de-
fective.

BERRIES ARE LARGE
BEST GROWN IN
UBIATILIA COUNTY
Crop Nets Handsome Profit In East
End-Berries and Cherries Being
Shlpped-Peaches VIII BE Heavy
This Year-Excellcnt Fruit Season.

Freewater, June 1S.-Strawberries
are about gone in this district and
cherries are commencing TO come in in
large punches. Other small fruits are
also beginning to ripen.
The strawberry crop this year was
very light but conservative estimate
would place the amount realized from
strawberries AT $4,000.
Peaches are going to be heavy this
year and apples will be about the
same as last year, but better grade
Is expected.
George A. Hardy, whose farm is
about a mile west OF this city. has
thus far won the blue ribbon for hav-
ing raised the largest strawberries
ever known in this section of the state,
he having raised over 500 worth Of
berries, known as the Gibson variety.
on one acre of ground which was set
out in plants last year. In one box
there were II of the big beauties,
while in one crate inspected today
there were not more than is berries
to a box. one of the larger berries
was measured and was found to be
IL inches in diameter. The berries
are as thick on the plants as they
can grow. and Mr.. Hardy's crop this
year will net him a handsome profit.
Mr. Hardy's strawberry patch is in
a veritable rock pile, and one of the
peculiar features of the large berries
Is that where the rocks are the larg-
est, there are to be found the largest
berries.

WILL HUNT RAILROAD TIES.
Effort TO Recover Those That Were
Lost by the Flood.

During the high water in the early
part OF April F. d. McCully, of JOS
eph, who had a contract with the o.
r. & n. company lost large guam
tity of railroad ties down the Grand
Ronde river, says the La Grande
Star.
Mr.. McCully's son Wilmer, who ar
rived from Joseph yesterday, is 60
ing to make the attempt to recover
the larger portion of the ties that
were washed away. 1t has been as
certained that large quantities OF the
timbers have lodged at different
points along the Grande Ronde and
the young man will take a force of
six assistants and boat and go down
the river and gather up all the ties
that can be found.
As rapidly as they can be assem-
bled these ties will be put into a raft
and floated down to the Snake river
at Lewiston where they can be turn
ed into market. 1t is expected that
about $4,000 worth of ties can be re.
covered in this way and that is con-
sidered to be a much better business
proposition than to lose the whole
thing.

Council Passes Resolution Ordering
Women and Parasites Out of Town
by July I.
Acting in accordance with the de-
sire of several councilmen and sup
ported by petition bearing signatures
of 1900 citizens of North Yakima, the
city council passed a resolution last
evening calling for the removal OF the
women of the restricted district and
their male associates from the city OF
North Yakima. The resolution in
structs the chief of police to notify
these people to depart at once. Fail
ure to get out of the city before July
means arrest for every woman or
man of the district The chief Is also
instructed not to make any more ar
rests for the object of collecting fines
from the women, which fines in the
past have been a source of city reve-
nue. amounting to about $500 month
ly.
When the resolution was passed the
action of the councilmen was greeted
with loud applause. Representatives
OF the clergy and many laymen were
present. The matter was first brought
up last night by the reading of the
petition, prepared by the churches, by
Fred Shaw, who in a dramatic pose
and with a clear voice moved that the
petition be granted. Councilman Mil
Ter said he would rather have the mat
ter dealt with in a form of resolution.
So he prepared one which was later
by Councilman Meigs There
were no dissenting votes.

PAINTING BERTHA RECAPTURED
Policies Most Dangerous Woman Es-
capes Asylum.

A dispatch from Peoria, Ills, says:
Bertha Lebecke, alias "Fainting Ber-
tha," who made her escape from the
tuberculosis tent at the Bartonville
asylum at Bartonville Saturday night,
was recaptured in this city yesterday.
Bertha was well disguised as a fe-
male drummer when arrested. She
said that she intended to go to the
home of her mother in Council Bluffs,
Iowa.
This is the fifth time Painting
Bertha" has escaped from her asylum
guardians and she has in addition a
record for several clever disappear
anees from the Nevada, Mo-, asylum.
Bertha Lebecks, 28 years old, is
considered by the Illionis state au-
thorities and the police to be the
most troublesome criminal ever with
in the state.
: Painting Bertha's'' favor4te
scheme of robbery is to pretend that
she has tainted and so we'll does she
practice the deception that everyone
near her rushes to her assistance,
While they are ministering to her ap-
parent needs she robs them of what
ever she may find in their clothes.
They never suspect until they have
sent her on her way recovered. =.
Bertha stole $1,000 worth of goods
in two days after escaping from the
Elgin asylum December 25. 1905, and
taking a train for Peoria. on the
train she tainted and robbed the con-
ductor. In Peoria she robbed three
stores, registering at three hotels un-
der assumed names and escaping with
the goods.
