fall for the last three weeks, may
venture. out again tonight, their fear
of a "peeping Tom" dispelled.
AS small posse was returning

the body of a man answering the
fugitive's description, hanging to a
tree, tied by a piece of heavy wrap

The mans pockets were stuffed
with hay and his body was clothed
in only a pair of overalls and a
working shirt. The general appear
ance of the body confirms the belief
that the man was insane and is the
same that has terrorized the timid
of the neighborhood for weeks.

klamath Falls, Ore, June e.
Cora Seaton, 16-year-old girl, Is
held in the county Jail here today
charged with arson. 1t is alleged
that she set fire to barn Of David
Shook, a farmer residing near here,
by whom she was employed as a
domestic. The barn was destroyed
and 1S head of horses burned TO
death. All the wagons, carriages
and farming implements were
burned with the barn.
The sheriff asserts that the girl
has confessed. He declared that her
alleged confession duplicates Mrs.
Deal-Jones, who is also in Jail,
charged with burning the Shook
barn.
According to the girls alleged
confession she set fire to the barn
at the instigation of Mrs. Deal
Jones. 1t is asserted that the wo-
man persuaded the girl to ignite the
structure out of motives OF revenge
Mrs. Deal-Jones previously had pur-
chased a horse from Shook, which
afterward proved to be ball1y. The
Seaton girl, was employed as a DOM
estic by Shook.
