Cupid Is Still Making Conquests.
Building Fine Road.


Chamblisston is still on a boom in
the matrimonial line. Miss Rosa
russell and Mr. Willie Leverett were
united Sunday morning at the home
of the bride at 10 o'clock, Rev. Phil
lips performing the ceremony. Both
are highly esteemed young people of
the community, and have the best
wishes of a large circle of friends
Messrs. Tom Moore and Oliver
Russell appear to be in little better
spirits now, as they seem to think
most anybody can marry They are
about the only two left, and now the
girls will either have to take them
or do without, or get out of the set
tlement. Mr.. Black gave Oliver Fus-
sell a plan by which he could get
married-told him to get him a false
face and keep his mouth shut. A
pretty good idea.
The county convicts are at work
on the main road leading from here
to Parrot. 1t will take them about
six weeks to complete the road, which
they are grading and cutting out 80
feet We will then have as good
road as there is in the county.

DESCHUTES RIGHT OF
WAY STILL DELAYElJ

Washington, May 21.-Land Com
missioner bennett stated that his of
flee would be unable to act upon
E. H. Harriman's application for right
OF way for the upper so miles of the
Deschutes railroad, pending action by
Secretary Ballinger upon a motion
for review of his recent decision dis
missing the protest of private power
companies against the granting of any
right of way for a railroad up the
Deschutes canyon. This motion for
review cannot be acted upon before
June s, and it would be useless for
the land office to approve maps for
the upper so miles of road while this
question affecting the lower stretch
Of right of way is undisposed of,
Mr.. Ballinger has previously held
that private power companies have
no valid ground upon which to pro-
test against granting right of way
across government land, and it is as
;umed that he will deny the motion
'or review when it reaches him.

Seattle, May zL-There is batter
ed, disgusted burglar in this city who
has probably made vow never again
to engage in the pursuit until he has
first ascertained that no athletic girl
servant is about the premises armed
in baseball paraphernalia.
Clara Anderson, employed at the
home of Leo S. Schwabacher, presi-
dent OF the Schwabacher Hardware
Co., was awakened late last night by
an odor of gas turned on in her room,
with the evident intention of aspyxi-
ating her. She discovered a prowler
in her bedroom and secured a baseball
bat and advanced upon the burglar.
With a heavy swing she caught the
burglar in the back of the neck and
sent him sprawling. The robber re-
gained his feet, and knocked the girl
down with his fist, but the plucky
servant fought, being an equal match
for the invader.
The burglar dropped jewelry val
ued at two thousand dollars and es-
capped with thirty dollars.

ing the Portland gateway case in IA

Washington, May 21-It was an
nounced today that the senate fl

reduce the proposed rates on finish
