THE BEST BERRIES
IN FIVE YEARS

There Is every prospect that the
strawberry crop this year will he the
best In FIVE years, as fai as quality 10
concerned, and will be about 10, 600
crates ahead of last year, according
to the estimate made by II. +. Dav-
idson, of the Davidson Fruit Co. and
E. Il. Shepard, manager Of the Fruit
Growers Union.
They estimate 90, ,0OO crates for Hood
River and 10000 for White Salmon.
The box factory has orders for So, 600
crates, while about 10000 are in the
hands of growers held over from last
year.
The first berries are coming In
earlier than last year. The warm
weather a week ago started the ber-
ries to ripening, andlit was peculiar
situation at that time that the higher
elevations we're coming forward about
as fast as the bottom lands, but the
cool weather of the past few days has
hold back the exposed places, while
the sheltered patches and the river
bottom lands have gone ahead. Last
Saturday Tom Calkins brought in
two boxes from the Morton ranch, in
this valley, and full crate on Mon
day. which we're placed In Wood 4
Smith Bros. window and soon sold
out at 80 cents box. The first halt
crate was brought to the Davidson
Fruit Co. Sunday by s. G. Zeigler,
of White Salmon, and we're fine lot
bf one tire berries. They brought 50
cents box and we're shipped out that
night to Portland. A. p. Bateham,
OF Mosier, shipped crate of ripe ber-
ries Sunday to Portland and two on
Tuesday. The first ripe berries from
high ground to he brought In were
from the ranch of h. M. Peck, Of
White Salmon.
The cool weather is very favorable
to the growth OF the berries, and the
period of bloom is being extended
over a much longer period than il the
weather we're warmer, and the berries
will be larger and better. There is
hut little small fruit developing, most
of the fields being y Jung plants, the
old plants having been plowed up in
most cases.
The demand for berries this year Is
very good, and would indicate good
prices for the season. The compare
lively moderate crop here, there be-
ing but about half the number Of
crates of iour years ago, on account

Your Name May Be There

A letter received yesterday by AN
attorney i'll Carson discloses an inter
esting condition as to unclaimed funds
in the Bank of England and in the
various courts of Great Britain, The
letter, among other things, gives
statistical information that over $500,
100000 dollars is on deposit as above
Indicated us the result of the death of
the original depOsitors and owners and
no heirs or claimants appearing to claim
any portion of it. OF this amount, it is
estimated that nearly IL million five
hundred thousand is subject to claim
by heirs supposed to be residing in this
country.
Under the law of Great Britain
money unclaimed after death by heirs
or representatives of deceased persons
never escheats to the government as in
the case under the laws of the United
States. This vast amount will there
fore remain forever unclaimed and will
serve no useful purpose even as Il circu-
lating medium unless the rightful
claimants demand what is theirs

DiS;-i:t Colr,

The district COURT convened at 1O
O'Clock this forenoon with judge Brown
presiding.
This being the Tins for passing
sentence on Christian S;ott, convicted
OF murder in the second degree for
killing Clemente Guidici at Bullion last
June, Attorney Gedney made an earn
est plea for leniency and Judge Brown
sentenced Scott to Imprisonment in the
penitentiary for the period of eleven
years.
In plssiag sentence Judge Brown
spoke feclinsly to the defendant and
told him that the crime of which he
had been convicted was not the first
ofense he had committed when under
the influence of liquor and urged him
to SD conduct himself in the penitentiary
that the sentence about to be passed
would be considerably shortened by his
good behavior.
In considering the plea for leniencv,
AMI the recommendation of mercy
made by the jury Judge Brown said
That the sentence should be severe
enough to carry with it the lesson that
men could not commit crime when
drunk and hope to- escape punishment.
He emphasized the law in regard to
drunkenness us II defense for crime and
hoped the lesson of SCOTS conviction
and punishment would not be lost upon
this community. He concluded his
remarks by sentencing Scott to eleven
years in the penitentiary.
AS the law fixes the penalty for muir
der ut from ten years to life in the
penitentiary, it will be seen that Judge
Brown was merciful i'll passing SEN
tence.
Scott showed considerable feeling
during Judge Browns remarks and
thanked him for the light sentence.
He expressed himself as being Statistic d
with the sentence and promised several
friends who were present to behave
himself while in prison, While many
thought Judge Brown would impose Il
severer sentence, all will admit that the
sentence imposed fills the demands of
the law.
At the request of defendants attorney,
the sentence of John Dolan, convicted
of murder i'll the first degree, was con-
tinued from 100 o'clock this afternoon
to o'clock
Owing to the lateness of the hour at
which the proceedings in the Dolan case
closed, it is impossible to report them in
