POSSES SEEK FIEND
WHO MURDERED MINISTER

Port Huran, Mich, Jan. 7.-Several
posses Of deputy sheriffs and citizens
are securing the country about Pine
River for the mysterious sailor who
is suspected of having murdered Rev.
John Carmichael, the Methodist min
lister whose dismembered body was
found in the stove of the church near
Columbus. 1t is believed Rev. Car
michael was stabbed to death after
a desperate struggle and the body
chopped to pieces with a hatchet.
There is blood all over the pews in
the church. No motive for the crime
is known. A strange sailor was seen
near the church before the crime was
committed.
Sheriff Wagensell announced today
that he has evidence against Gigson
Browning a carpenter, who is being
sought in connection with the Car
michtel murder. The sheriff says the
church looks like a slaughter house.

San Francisco. Jan. THAT China
will be torn asunder by the bitter
feud between Prince Chun the regent
for the baby emperor Pu vi, and
Prince Ching, the head of the army
at the time of the late emperor's
death, is declared today by the Cal
Vat Bo, local Chinese daily paper,
in a sensational story, hitherto un-
published, in which is described an
armed assault made on Prince Ching
by Prince Chun in the presence of
the dowager empress.
"a bitter feud has existed between
the present regent and Prince Ching
for many years" says the story, "and
will undoubtedly culminate in the de-
feat of one or the other. The dis
missal of Yuan Shi Kai as grand
chancellor and commander of the
army was a great victory for the re-
gent, as Yuan is a close friend of
Prince Ching"

Road Supervisor Will Direct
All Work Over County and
Be Responsible to Court.
DAVE LAVENDER is TO
HAVE CHARGE OF WORK
Plan Desired by Good Roads Associa-
ton Goes Into Effect Immediately
Lavender Will Be Known as Gen.
eraI Roadmas.er-Has Had Much
Experience in work and Selection
Pleases People.

Umatilla county now has but one
county road supervisor instead of 40
as heretofore, the county court having
decided to adopt the plan recommend
ed by the good roads association.
Instead of reappointing the 40 dis
trict supervisors whose terms expired
on the first of the month, the court
this morning decided to give the one
supervisor plan trial and this af-
ternoon appointed Dave Lavender of
Weston to that position. This man
has had considerable experience in
this kind of work and the court feels
that under his direction the road work
of the county will be carried out in
first class shape.
There were three candidates for the
position. Dave Lavender, formerly
city marshal of Weston and who for
the past several months has been en-
gagged in road building work under
the supervision of the county, in the
vicinity of Weston. The roads built
under his supervision have excited
iiuSH AoNOlduiS CbluIleil. 1H6 Ol0et
two candidates we're Harry Huber,
who has been supervisor of the Mil
ton district for some time, and George
Buzan, formerly county assessor and
a well-known resident of this city.
Under the new system Mr.. Laven-
der will have complete charge Of all
the road building and road improve
ments in the county. He will be un-
der and subject to the will of the coun-
ty court, but the powers accorded him
are almost absolute. He will be held
for the roads in every part
Of the county, but it will probable
be necessary for him to appoint as
sistants in the different localities or
districts. He will not be bound by
any precincts, however, and will be
at liberty to appoint as many or as few
assistants as it seems to him necessary.

Lytle figures that IL the snow re-

The longer the snow remains on the
ground the more desperate will be-
come the coyotes. They will be
driven out of the hills entirely and
watching for the slightest opportunity
to pick up stray sheep. they should
easily fall a pray to the hunters rifle
or the poisoner's bait. Traps can al
so be used to good advantage.

thing an occupant of the old Jail
could look out upon the street and

NEW JAIL IS NOT " HOME SWEET HOME !"

back to the old JAIL" said Marshall
this morning as Chief Gurdane

Portable quarters recently provided by
the city fathers
Marshall had been arrested last
night for roaming the streets and
when arraigned in court this morn
ing declared he was waiting for

he had taken a couple of drinks of
the much beloved firewater, but in
sisted that that was all. In the alb
sence of Night Officer Kearney who
made the arrest, he was remanded
to jail and 1t was then that he ex-
postulated against being locked up
in the new quarters.

BIC SNOW HELPS IN COYOTE CRUSADE

With the whole of eastern Oregon
wrapped in a mantel of snow, State
Sheep Inspector Lytle is Of the opin-
ion that the warefore just started
against the pestiferous coyote is most
timely.
The snow has not only driven the
sheep into the corrals but It has
covered up the dead carcases of birds
and animals upon which the coyotes
have been wont to feed, causing them
to go to greater extremes in their
hunt for food than usual. They are
hanging around as close to the sheep
corrals as they dare and at the same
time are more susceptible to poison
than usual says DR.. Lytle.
The pamphlets recently sent out
by the state board Of sheep COM
mission will be OF great benefit now
for the state sheep inspector says the

With $1,000 Subscription from DIR. O.

Slow.

I'VE will sell the bonds for the
wooden mill, but this is rather bad
weather to do any work of that kind.
We are waiting for the temperature
to rise little bit before we try to do
very much"
This is what w. F. Matlock, chair
man of the bond selling committee.
said today In speaking of the headway
being made by the committee OF six.
Though the members of the commit
tee are not discouraged over the out
look they are not doin every much
just now, prefering to wait for little
sunshine before starting upon the
work in earnest.
Yesterday afternoon the committee
went forth upon its first tour and the
way led to the office Of DR.. C. j.
Smith. With but little II any hesi-
fancy DR.. Smith subscribed for $1,000
worth of bonds. No other parties
were visited at that time, nor has the
committee been together again.
With DIR. Smiths subscription a to-
tai OF $4,000 is now secured and it
remains for the committee to secure
$4,000 more in order to complete the
deal
Wake Up.
But while the committee is optl-
mistic regarding the outcome they
also complain that there is too much
indifference to the proposition on the
part of some property owners. Seem
ingly there are several extensive real
ty owners who do not fully appreciate
the advantage that will result to the
town from reestablishing the mill.
However, the committee hopes to en-
thuse these men soon so that they
will assist in floating the bond issue.
