La Porte, Ind, May 6.-Nine more
bodies were found on the farm of Mrs.
Bell Guinness today. This makes 13 in
all More are expected.
Mattresses had been placed over the
bodies and dirt shoveled over them, A
rib and several other human bones
were found near by.
AS hours go by the Guinness farm
horror increases and police believe
that they have unearthed the greatest
series of crimes since the days of H.
II. Holmes.
Detectives believe the Guinness
farm was clearing house for band
of murderers and that Mrs. Guinness
shared the spoils for her disposal of
the bodies.
1t is known that three men appear
ed at the Guinness place within the
last year to answer matrimonial ad-
vertisements and that all three men
disappeared within a few days. Mrs.
Guinness stated at that time that she
had sent the men away as unsatisfac-
tory. Detectives are now looking for
their bodies.
II is thought 1t was the woman's
aim to use the matrimonial ad as a
lare to get men on the farm so as to
murder and rob them.

At a meeting of the Umatilla Wa
ter Users association held at Hermis-
ton last night, definite plans for the
monster excursion to be run TO that
place on May q, the date of the
opening of the government project,
were made.
The directors of the association ap-
pointed a number of committees to
have charge of the various features
of the exercises at Hermiston and to-
night Mayor Fred A. Yates will APP
point committees for the city to CO.
operate with the Water Users asso-
citation.
Among the committees named last
night were the following:
On transportation to the dam, Colo
mel H. G. Newport, chairman.
On refreshments and lunch, W. II.
Skinner, chairman.
On program. Attorney Francis H
Bartlett, chairman.
! 1t is planned to have the exercises
in the church at Hermiston, as that
edifice will hold about 450 people.
Among those who are now almost
certain to give addresses on that day
are Judge Stephen A. Lowell, who
will give the address of the day;
Engineer John T. Whistler. father Of
the project, who will give statistics
and data concerning the project; En-
gineer Hobson OF the Portland offices
of the reclamation service; Supreme
Judge VIII R. King, H. NJ. Cake and
local speakers.
1t is now estimated that il will be-
possible to transport from $50 to 800,
people from Hermiston to the gov-
ernment dam on that date, with the
limited facilities at Hermiston, but It
is possible that many more than this
number will be enabled to reach the
dam during the day.
The excursion train has been re-
quested by Pendleton Commercial as
sociation and by running the train out
early from this city, say about 1880,
and returning leave Hermiston at
p. m, it would be possible for teams
to make two trips from Hermiston TO
the dam and in this way practically
all Of the visitors could see the dam.
Engineer John T. Whistler will
have men on the ground at the dam
and at various points Of interest on
the project to show and explain the
government works to the visitors The
government is doing everything pos
siole to have the project entirely COM
plete by that time, but it is evident
that there will be much unfinished
work to see as well as portions of the
completed project

Metallic Human Bodies.


Metallic Human Bodies.
Chicago, May 6.-The Inter Ocean
today says:
Wolfram c. Fuchs, an X-ray expert
of Chicago, who died a year ago with
X-ray cancer, martyr to the science,
discovered a marvellous secret by
which he was able to work certain
chemical changes In living organisms
that transform them into metal. For
two years before his death he con-
Quoted a series OF experiments which
reached their climax In the metaliza-
ion Of dog.
r. c. Fuchs, his brother, took up the
work where he left off and brought
the secret process to practical per-
fection.
Mr.. Fuchs Is planning 10 metalize
human body which he proposed TO
put on exhibition in a downtown shop
window The body will be that of
a pauper. BY direct process OF met
alization 1t will be changed into a
statue, which TO all external appear
ances will be OF solid gold. The cost
OF this strange conversion Of a hu-
man corpse into metal. according to
the inventors estimate, will be $500.

No Wool Market.

Some 10000 sheep have been shorn
in Yakima county within the past
month by power shearing plant
which has been operated in the hills
east of North Yakima. The work
there is now finished, and this week
the plant will be removed to Ellens-
burg, where some $4,000 sheep will
be shorn. A number of wool buyers
have been in North Yakima, but have
made no offers for wool and no sales
day has been set. There Is therefore
no market. The wool is exception.

STATE GIVES CLEAR TITLE.
Agreement REACHED With Deschutes
Land Company.

Salem, Ore z q The state
land board and iutes Irriga-
ton g. Power COMP = ave reached
an understanding reg 9 release OF
lien on reclaimed lar & d the COM
pany has arranged to . the hold
ers of the mortgages : the releas-
es. This arrangement : 2 ables the
state to execute deeds 2 = Tiers with
title clear of any appaY z cloud, and
the issuance of deedsS begin at
once.
The company contended that under
the terms Of the mortgages, these in
struments would not constitute a
cloud upon the title Of any land the
state might deed, but Governor Cham.
berlain refused to sign any deeds un-
til arrangements had been made with
holders of the mortgages. He held
that even If the mortgages are not a
cloud upon the title, it might take liti
cation to establish that fact.
The new arrangement is gratifying
not only to the state land board but
to settlers as well, for they can now
get deeds as fast as they submit fl
nal proof and they can feel satisfied
that their titles are good.
1t is evident that the state land
board proposes to insist upon observ-
ance of its rule of requiring six
months residence, for three applica-
tons for deeds have been turned
down because the residence rule had
not been complied with. This does
not mean, however, that the purchas-
ers will lose their land. If they be-
come actual settlers as the rule re-
qulres' they may get their deeds.

There is every evidence now
throughout the county that the repub-

company the governors party to the

To show the real estate men OF the
county that Pendleton's heart is with
them, a banquet will be given in hon
or OF these men while they are here
for their conference Thursday night.
1t will be given at the Hotel Pendle-
ton at the conclusion of the meeting
and will make a fitting close to the
evenings work
At the Commercial associations
meeting held last evening the subject
OF giving a banquet to the visiting
real estate men was taken up and
within a few minutes enough support
had been promised to make the affair
a success. Many Of those present last
night offered to pay for five plates at
a dollar banquet and a committee con-
sisting OF NJ. S. Kern. W. L. Thompson
and T. T. Geer was named to have
charge OF the banquet arrangements.
Would Win West End.
Early in the meeting last evening d.
B. Costuma, representative OF the Co.
lumbia Land company. was called up
on and spoke very pointedly on the
attitude OF some Pendeton people to-
wards the irrigation projects OF the
west end. He declared that knocking
was being done where there was no
need nor excuse for the same and said
that II was interfering with the work
of colonlzing the arid lands.
In answer to Mr.. Costume speeches
were made by President Alexander. T.
c. Taylor and others present. In a
very earnest talk Mr.. Alexander de-
clared that the responsible people OF
the city were not disposed against any
of the west end projects but on the
other hand wished to do everything
possible to develop that section.
Richardson Lacked Tact.
T. C. Taylor likewise made very
interesting talk along the same line,
declaring that the greater the growth
in the west end the better for this city
also. In the course of his remarks
Mr.. Taylor said he believed that the
people of the city would subscribe to
a publicity bureau fund when shown
how and for what purpose the money
would be used. He also took occa-
sion to criticlse Tom Richardson's at
ttude at the meeting held at the court
house.
Others who spoke on the subject
were Leon Cohen, w. L. Thompson,
DR. NJ. s. Kern, r. II. Wilcox and
others.
According to Mr.. Wilcox, the solic-
reau is hampered through the fact
that at present they cannot say ex-
actly how the money Is to be used.
Accordingly he suggested that at the
meeting to be held Thursday a com
mittee OF five be chosen to serve with
the associations regular publicity
committee and that the two commit
tees constitute board to have charge
OF the publicity fund.
Demonstration Train.
The proposition of attending the
demonstration train program, to be
given here May 13, was also brought |
UP and II was urged that as many |
farmers as possible be urged to attend |
the meeting. The committee already |
named to have charge of the demon
stration meeting here was enlarged |
by the addition of the names of DR..
Kern, G. w. Bradley, M. A. RAIDER,
D. B. Costuma and r. H. Wilcox. The
former committee was composed of
