MORTON INJUNCTION
PETITION WITHDRAWN

A surprise was sprung by the de-
feuse in the municipal bond niunc-
tion before Judge Bean in the Federal
Court in Portland Friday when an
affidavit, was presented from Mrs.
Pearl Morton, who had been persuaded
by the friends Of the plaintiff to file a
petition Of intervention in the suit of
Burt Van Horn vs.. the city officials,
enjoiing sthe sale Of the 500, 600 muni-
cipal water bond issue.
In the affidavit, Mrs. Morton says
that the circumstances were misreprc-
sentcd to her and she authorized Judge
A. J. Derby as her attorney in fact to
withdraw the petition. c. d. Nickel
sen has filed an affidavit denying that
any Misrepresentation were made.
1t was expected that Judge Bean
would render his decision in the case
Monday but he did not hand it down
and it is now probable that on next
Monday his findings will be made
knwon. The withdrawal Of the Morton
petition added to sthe statement that
Mr.. Van Horn was ignorant of the
contents of the complaint signed with
his name make it still more plain that
the injunction suit is merely an effort
on the part of the owners Of the local
private water company to block the in
stalIation of the municipal plant.

to the court follows:

MYSTERIOUS DEATH
OF YOUNG GIRL

A death Tuesday night which is
battling County Coroner Jesse Edging-
ton is that of Ruth Southworth, a
17-year old girl, who was employed for
two days as a domestic at the home of
Geo. |. Slocom in this city, Although
a number of things point to suicide,
it is a mystery how death came about
The young girl is a niece of Mrs. S.
j. Cozad, on the Heights, and has
been in Hood River for the past four
months, coming here from Oklahoma
where her father lives Another aunt
Mrs. F. E. Cole, of The Dales, was
the guardian of the girl and furnished
her the money on which to come west.
Since coming to Hood River the
dead girl was employed at the homes
of Jack Robinson and {. +. Glaze, in
the valley, and the first of this week
went to the Slocom home.
Tuesday evening she seemed to be
in good spirits and none Of the rela-
tives or acquaintance Of the girl can
assign any reason for her to commit
suicide. The girl took d bath in the
evening and Mrs. Slocom spoke to her
and found her ready to retire later in
the evening When discovered We'd
nesday morning by the family she was
fully attired in her clothing and lying
across her bed.
There was no sign of struggle and
there were no marks on the body to
indicate the cause of her death. A
note was found in the bed asking that
Mrs. Cozad be notified of her
"predicament. There was a chloro-
form bottle in the room of the girl but
there were no burns about her mouth
which would have been left had she
taken the drug internally.
Yesterday DR.. Edgington was undc-
cided as to the cause of death and had
not decided whether or not he would
hold an inquest. The girl is said to
have suffered at times with heart
trouble and at the time of her death
she was slightly sick.
