WELL-sRED FRENCH BURGLARS,
Proved Truth of Boast That They
Knew Respect Due to Years.

While the mistress of the house had
gone out with her children three polite
burglars entered her villa at Triel,
france. Not wanting to put anyone
out, they had waited until the house
was empty. But on exploring the place
they unexpectedly found an old lady
In bed, the mother Of the mistress of
the house, aged over 81. She was
naturally alarmed, but the polite burg
lars reassured her. One, a young man,
the politest of the three, said s
Madame, allow me to apologize Have
no fear. We know the respect due to
years, and would not think of hurting
a hair Of your head. All we want is
the booty. Allow me to keep you COM
pany while my friends look for it," The
amiable young man, true to his word,
sat down by the old lady's bedside and
chatted pleasantly to her while his
confederates plundered the house.
When their operations were over he
got up, bowed, apologized profusely
again, and retired. The rest of the
family returned to find all the val
uables in the house gone.

Yield of an Oregon Walnut Tree.

A big walnut tree in the yard of IL,
residence of l.. e. Blain in this CT,
shows the possibilities of walnut rui
ture in this part Of the state. Though
It stands on the poorest kind of land
for fruit growing and has never re-
ceived scientific culture the tree this
year produced $25 worth of nuts. THIS
shows the immense profit Of an acre
of similar trees.
This tree is IA years old and stands
80 feet high. 1t is a French walnut
of the Mayette variety. Mr.. Blain be-
lieves that had 1t been properly
trimmed when young and placed IN
good soil, like that of the Santian bot
toms in this country, it would have at
tanned It's present growth and bear
ing qualities in seven or eight years.

"Look here. Bill" exclaimed the
first citizen, this orator person is
bitter enough now on the subject of
trusts, but, as everybody in this coun-
ty knows, he was at one time a good

"Sure!" assented the other, but

awoke to the enormity of the thing!

trust? He sold 1t every one of his fac.

Indians Are Amenable to Laws

Salem-A,torncy-Cene Crawford
has rendered an opinion at the re-
quest of the superintendent of the
Silctz Indian reservation as to the
status Of Indians on the reserva-
tons who have been accused OF
crime.
The encouragement takes the po-
silion that Indians residing on the
reservations to whom lands have
been allotted are citizens OF the state
In which the reservation is situated.
In 1910 the supreme court of this
state held that for six certain crimes,
such rs murder. treason and other
similar serious ofienses, the federal
court only had jurisdiction, but dur
ing lo02-J.A the United States su-
premc court laid down the principle
that the allottee on an Indian reser-
walton Is amenablc to all the laws
of the state in which the reservation
Is located
