LAND COMMISSIONER
VISITS NORTH YAKIMA
Has Ranch at ZiIIah and Comes
Across the Hills to See That the
Cooling Moth Are Comfortable

Land Commissioner f.. w. Ross has
been in North Yakima for the past
two days travelling incognito and dis
guised under a broad hat and wearing
the apparel and appearance of a hard
working ranchcr rather than the sleek
and well groomed appearance of u
public official. Mr.. Ross has "A ranch

comes to Yakima he goes down and
looks at his trees, WanderS along the
bitches. takes hand in the work and
dreams of the wealth that Is to be
produced. Also when Il newspaper
man attempts to interview him ON
state matters he says that there Is
nothing particular with reference to
his visit TO Yakima but that he Is here
merely to look after personal matters
connected with his Zillah property.
Mr.. Ross, however by assuming the
garb of the people and driving along
the country roads and stopping here
and calling there manages to get
through with considerable business
of some kind or other somewhat for
eign to spraying and irrigating. while
here he was registered as a guest at
the Hotel Pacific.

shortly after o'clock that evening
all the neighbors went to Sunday
school entertainment. And in the
dusk of the evening the murderer
dropped the beautiful body into a
wheelbarrow, through a window, car
ried 1t to a boat, rowed out into the
river and dropped it in. 1t sank under
the weight of a kettle filled with
stones
Two days later he pawned the wo-
mans rings in Baltimore and mailed
the letter which the girl had written
to her relatives. The next day the
body rose. Eastman fled, was pursued
and shot.
There is only one mystery in the
case. Eastmans letter to his young
wife in New York was a blind and a
lie, for there was no party at his house
on the night of the murder, as he
claimed.
The whole mystery is best told in the
words of the young wife:

he wanted her to do

The typical Constantinople police

the change. Horses unfit for work
