HENEY HAS NARROW
ESCAPE IN ACCIDENT

Castlerock, Wash, July S.-That
mysterious providence which saved
Francis j. Heney from the assassin's
bullet on the afternoon of November
1S, 1908 during the Ruef trial at San
Francisco delivered him unscathed
Saturday afternoon from the auto
mobile accident in which DR.. Boards
ley, Heney's physician, sustained a
wrenched back; Detective Mccarthy,
Heney's bodyguard, badly burned
leg; Jess Mclaughlin, Heney's chauf-
feur, a sprained ankle, and ex-senator
Fred w, Mulkey of Portland, a bad
shake-up.
When the big touring car which
was bearing Heney and his party
from Portland to Seattle overturned
about a mile north of Castlerock the
famous graft prosecutor was sitting
on the front seat with the chauffeur
when the machine pitched over
after striking the sandy fill in the
HILL" said Mr.. Heney, Il was hurled
through the air as though shot from
a cannon, and landed clear of the
machine. After turning completely
over twice the car settled, wheels up,
with the other members of the party
underneath it. I started to run back
to Castlerock, but met two parties of
men driving toward town and about
20 of them went back with me and
together we lifted the machine. DR..
Beardsley was unconscious and Nc
Carthy was badly burned on the leg.
Mulkey released himself shortly after
the car overturned"
Heney, accompanied by DR.. Beas-
ley, Detective Mccarthy and ex-Sena-
tor Mulkey took train at Castlerock
for Seattle leaving Jess Mclaughlin,
the chauffeur, at Castlerock, at the
latter's request.
Mrs. Heney was in Portland when
the accident occurred, having remain
ed there to take the 1890 o'clock
Saturday night train for Seattle. The
automobile is not thought to be Sc
riously injured.
Both Heney and Mulkey say it is
a miracle none of the party was kill
ed.

Owing to a change of plans the
Indians encamped at Cayuse station
did not hold their war parade and
dance yesterday. They now state that
the parade and warlike demonstra-
tion will be held this afternoon. Jim
Pond, the interpreter, is authority for
the statement that the parade will be
pulled off between and o'clock this
evening. He says the Indians intend
ed having the war dance yesterday
afternoon but changed their minds.
But while no war bonnets were in
evidence yesterday those who went
out from Pendleton to see the In
dians perform were not disappointed
entirely. Towards evening a 'Iove
Dance" was held and it was very in
teresting spectacle. The dance was
held in the big lodge at one end of
the camp grounds and the place was
filled with dancers. The Indian men
formed a line upon one side of the
lodge and the squaws upon the other.
They marched and danced for an
hour or more and the parties present
who had seen many past perform
ances declare the Love dance" given
yesterday the finest exhibition they
have ever seen the Indians give.
The Indians are encamped beside
the river just below Cayuse station
and there are some 40 or so tepees in
fhe hip circle They will remain in
camp for a week or longer, devoting

HOLIDAY is
BEING GENERALLY OBSERVED

Owing to the fact that this is a le-
gal holiday being the succeeding Mon
day after a holiday falling upon sum
day, there has been but little business
transacted about the city today. In
conformity with the understanding
reached some time ago all of the stores
and most other business houses, have
been closed during the entire day. AS
a result the store people have had an
opportunity to rest up after their hard
work attendant upon the fourth or
July celebration.
Also the public offices have all been
closed today and the court house has
been a scene of peace and quietude.
In the circuit court this would have
been Motion Day, being the first Mon
day in the month, had it been a judi
cial day.

1900 BUSHELS CORN
TO Is ACRES LAND

Mr. Henry Jordan, who lives
just outside of town on the Osce-
ola Lake road, has a crop of corn
on his fine place there which dem
onstrates the possibilities Of
Henderson county farming.
Three years ago this 18-acre
tract would not have raised so
bushels of corn. This year, af-
ter cutting 80 tons of hay, Mr..
Jordan will gather not less than
1900 bushels Ct corn. Next year
he will have it bringing not less
than 100 bushels to the acre, and
corn is selling now in this town
for ST. 10.
The land will be put in wheat
this fall. This will be followed
by peas and Mr.. Jordan conf
IDENTIFY expects to cut 40 tons of
pea vine hay from the 15-acre
tract.
Mr.. Jordan fed 90 head of cat
tie on his place last winter. This,
of course, is the secret of the
marvellous increase from so to
1900 bushels of corn in three
years time, and is also proof that
Henderson county soil will re-
spond to the right kind of treat
ment as quickly as the soil of any
other section of the South.

Scented Murder Mystery

What may prove to be the
most CHASTITY deed ever commit
ted in Henderson county was
brought somewhat to light Fri
day or rather a suspicion was
made, from an ANONYMOUS letter
received by Sheriff Blackwell.
The letter was written in fairly
good hand writing and bore the
postoffice stamp of Asheville, N.
c., 2::3O p. M, July 22nd. Below
is a copy of this strange note:
To the Sheriff and Coroner of
Henderson county:
IF you will go and dig up the
ground in the stables of the old
Hunter place you will find John
Hunters body hid away in the
stable if iC has not been moved.
You ought to go at once"
No signature was placed to
this and the superstition is that
the author was afraid for some
reason to make himself known
On receiving the note Sheriff
Blackwell and his deputy went
out and spent the evening dig
ging up the grounds at the de-
scribed place. They saw no
signs of the body and returned
to the city satisfied that they had
been on a cold trail and that the
author of such a note only de-
sired to worry the Hunter fam
lily with a lot of notoriety.
John V. Hunter the supposed
murdered man is we'll known in
this city. He is an old man and
has only one arm. When last
seen he was on the streets of
Asheville last on the 9th day of
May. Since this time no one has
heard or seen anything of him.
1t is said that four years ago he
disappeared in a like manner and
was not heard from for a year
or more.
Whether the old man was
dealt with foully or not can not
be found. The Sheriff has done
all in his power and it is left fol
new developments before any
thing more can be done.
A great many people over the
county are wrought up over the
affair and are leaving moth ms
nndone to unravel the mys
terry.

Lincoln V. Cravens of Hammond was
one of the main speakers at the first
Indiana Masonic grand lodge meet
ing, in what he declared at Indianap-
oils, yesterday, to be the finest Ma
sonic temple in the history Of the
world.
Mr.. Cravens. recalling the first of all
Masonic temples, said it was no longer
necess airy to dedicate them by the sac
rifce of 10000 oxen and 10000 sheep.
He pleaded for Indiana Masons to dedi-
cate this one and consecrate with high
er ideals and greater zeal He traced
the growth of Masonry in Indiana
through it's temples. The first one,
erected in Indianapolis, he said. was
dedicated in 1851. There were then
1900 Masons in the state, and the tenn
pie cost-including ground-$21 000
The second one cost $125.000, and was
dedicated in 1876, when the member
ship in the state was %, 900 The third
the present one-was dedicated by
63. 600 Masons in Indiana.
Among those on the platform par.
ticipating in the dedicatory services
and grand lodge work, were Lucien A
Foote. who, as grand master of Indi.
ana Masons in 1875, laid the corner
stone for the second temple. and Dan
iel Mcdonald, who was the grand mas
ter in 1876 when it was occupied.
