GRAND JURY
SUBMITS REPORT

In the Circuit Court of the State OF
Oregon for Hood River County, Hood
River, Or, July 6, 1911.
To Hon. w. l.. Bradshaw,
Judge Of the above entitled court.
We, the Grand Jury empaneled IN
the Circuit Court for the State OF
Oregon for the County of Hood River.
at the July, 1911, term thereof, beg
leave to report as follows:
We have been in session 3 days and
have returned 10 true bills and one
mot true bill. -
We have given careful consideration
to all matters brought TO our attention
and Investigated all complaints brought
to our attention.
We have examined the office of the
county sheriff, county clerk, county
assessor and county treasurer and
looked carefully into their accounts
and books as our time and ability
would permit and it seems to us that
these Offices are being conducted in a
proper manner.
We inspected the county property
which seemed to be in good condi-
tion and properly cared for.
We investigated the condition of the
county poor and it appears to US that
they are being well cared for by the
county court.
We spent considerable time in the
investigation of any violations of the
local option law and in this connection
examined various witnesses but in no
case were able to get evidence sufii-
cient upon which to base an indict-
ment. In this connection we state
that a written report supposedly made
by two detectives was laid before us,
but the detectives failed to appear and
there present whereabouts could not be
determined by the sheriff, and the
statements made in their report could
not be corroborated.
Respectfully submitted,
F. P. Friday, foreman,
James E. Montgomery

Hypnotlzlna Lobsters.

Hypnotic lobsters2 Sure thing
you can," said the man in South street.
"See here" he said, picking up an
active one by the body behind the
claws. He stroked 1t down the tall
three or four times, and the lobster be-
came very stiff and still. He set it on
the floor against the wall, standing 1t
up. He took four or five more Holsters
and treated them the same way. Now
watch 'em for q minute" he said,
looking at the row Of prospective chat
ing dish filters The first lobster
gradually became limp and fell on the
floor with a crash. This woke the
third lobster in the row, for 1t, too,
fell forward Then two more fell.
They all started to make off, but be
caught them as they tried to scuttle
away. "Sure thing" said the South
street man; Its as easy to hypnotize
'em here as on Broadway. New York
Sun.

WEST WILL BENEFIT
FROM Big CANAL

when the big Panama Canal is
opened" says Mike .Carigg, who for a
years was employed in the canal zone
by the government and the Panama
r. r. Co., but who is now visiting in
the valley, "the transportation facil
tiles of the West will be revolution
lied. The West will receive an ines
tmable benefit from the construction
of the great waterway. Coast cities
of the West will be drawn to points on
the Atlantic almost as closely as they
are now by rail. Compare at present
the average time of passenger trains
on our best rail lines with the time
made by the large liners between the
United States and Europe. When the
Panama Canal is completed steamship
companies will be ready to give west
ern ports the advantage of vessels as
lantic. Already a great deal more
freight than any who has not visited
the canal zone would imagine comes to
the Pacific ports by the water route
and is taken across the Isthmus. -.a-. s.-a.s
Mr.. Carrigg went to the canal zone
in 1905. He was, before his depart
ure, a conductor on the Iowa division
of the Illinois Central R. R. Co. He
was at first employed by the govern
ment as yardmaster in one of their
distributing points, but later he be-
came conductor for the Panama r.
R. Co. The sanitary conditions on the
Isthmus were in an awful condition,
Mr.. Carrigg states, when he first went
there. However, in the few years
that the United States government has
had charge, conditions have been revo-
lutionized. 81 would as soon live
there as in great many parts of the
United States now" said Mr..
Carrigg.
Mr.. Carrigg was here last March,
but stopped in the city only few
hours. He returned from Waterloo,
Ia, for his second visit last week. He
is very much impressed with the Val
ley and may decide to locate here.

SHOOTING A HORSE.
The Way to Instantly End His Misery
should He Break q Lea.


When a horse falls in the harness his
natural inclination is to get up again.
The shock of the fall has excited him
more or less. and In his efforts to arise
he may further injure himself as well
as the harness.
The first action should be to sit on
his head, pointing his nose upward
with one hand. 10 keep him from
struggling until the traces and all other
attachments 10 the vehicle can be IN
fastened. II two persons are present
this can be done without difficulty.
1t q horse breaks bis leg the most
humane as well as the most sensible
action is to shoot him on the spot.
II is true that cases are on record
where broken legs have been success
fully treated by means OF suspending
the horse IN sling and pulleys. but
the experiments in this direction have
almost invariably met with failure.
To shoot q suffering animal and kill
him instantly is not so simple a mat
ter as IT at first appears. says Country
Life In America. Many shots are
sometimes fred before death results.
How and where should a horse be
shot?
In the center of every horses fore
head a little above the line Of the eyes
Is a little swirl something like q cow
lick. Three inches above this swirl is
the exact spot to lodge the bullet to
insure its piercing the brain. The
bullet should not be of less than 3S
caliber.
For sprains hot or cold bandages are
recommended. Fomentations promptly
applied sometimes prevent permanent
lameness. Spraining of the back
sinews is only too common and un-
less promptly and properly treated re-
suits in knuckling and other complica-
tions. Blistering, firing and even
nerving are resorted TO, but 1t should
be borne in mind that these drastic
measures are often unnecessarily TAX.

ORIGIN OF OUR CALENDAR

The Julian year consists OF 1854
days and exceeded by II minutes 1895
seconds the solar year OF 365 days s
hours 48 minutes 40 seconds. In con.
sequence of this, the equinox in the
course Of few centuries fell back con.
siderably. In the time Of Julius Cae-
sar, II corresponded to March 20.
and by the sixteenth century It had
refrigerated to March II. 1t was at
this time that q physician OF Verona
named Ghiraldi proposed a plan for
amending tho calendar He died be
fore he had opportunity to carry II
forward, but his brother presented It
to Pope Gregory Kill, who assembled
a number of learned men to discuss IT,
II was passed upon favorably and
adopted, and thus was given to tho
world what has since been known as
the Gregorian calendar. In 1882 Greg.

calendar In all Catholic countries, and
introducing the reformed one.
The reform OF the Gergorian ur new

main leap year, but 100, 1900 and
