STUDENT DEAD
FROM HAz|NG
University of Oregon Boy Never
Recovered From Hazing Stunt
and Contracted Quick Con-
sumption.

MEDFORD, Ore, Feb. S.-As the
direct result of hazing at the Univer-
sity Of Oregon Clarence w. Gore died
at his home in this city Sunday after
noon. The young man never recov-
cred from a cold contracted while
being put through a hazing stunt be-
fore Thanksgiving, going into quick
consumption. He was forced to leave
the university at Christmas and was
unable to return.
After he had been in the univer-
sity some weeks, Gore, with four
night and for three hours compelled
to keep a huge bonfire for the benefit
of their tormentors. The work was
enough to keep a score of men busy
and the young men overexerted them
selves, especially Gore, who was of
delicate build. He was soon in a
dripping perspiration and contracted
a heavy cold which he was unable to
throw off. He came home at Thanks
giving and spent a week trying to
build himself up again.
He then returned to college against
the wishes of his father and remain
ed until Christmas. When he came
home at Christmas time he was very
eak, hardly able to climb a flight
VI stairs without stopping to rest.
Then for the first time he told of the
hazing. "

ACTS
OF STEWART
Railroad Building and Mine Ope.
rations Were Subject to His
Conversation.
IMPORTANT LITIGATION is
PROCEEDINGS IN COURT
Property at Outlook Is Involved
in Suit That Is Being Heard
by Judge Preble of Superior
Court.

Numerous mining projects discus
sed by w. McF Stewart of Outlook
and his scheme to build a railroad
were brought into the testimony Of
the witnesses in the suit of the Cas-
cade Lumber Co. against Stewart in
the superior court Tuesday. They
were spoken of by various witnesses
as indicating that he was extremely
visionary and during a certain period
In 1907 was not entirely capable of
transacting business.
Several of his old time friends were
on the stand and they told of numer-
Gus talks they had with him, and how
he became greatly excited and took
on a peculiar stare when discussing
his railroad plans and his mining
propositions. At that time, Stewart
considered that he had numerous
valuable mining claims on Snipes
mountain and that ne was to be-
come immensely wealthy as a result
The case on trial Is one that in
wolves much of the townsite of Out
look, valuable property held by many
people of Yakima county. The de-
Tense in the case is attempting to
clear this title for Stewart on the
ground that he was no competent
TO transact business when he sold the
lots in the townsite. Many days have
