M'KlNLEY MATHEWS DEAD.
Body of Young Man Found Near
Plsttsburgh, NY.

The body of the unknown young man
Point au Roche, P. O., on Friday last
was identified by Charles j. Mathews
as that of his son, Mckinley Mathews,
a youth of 16, who disappeared from
his home mile east of this village on
Sunday, September Is. The body was
brought here Saturday night by the
father, who has pursued an unrelenting
search since the boy disappeared.
The body of the unfortunate youth
was found by H. D. Gale, owner of the
warehouse. Death had resulted from
exposure while imprisoned between
high bales of hay.
Mathews disappeared from his home
while his parents were away, and his
wandering off is thought to have been
due to a sudden attack of insanity, as
it is known that he suffered a fall
earlier in the morning, when he struck
on his head. 1t is thought that he went
into the warehouse to sleep and that he
rolled off into a crevice, where he had
probably lain for several days.
The clues that led to his Identification
were a cap purchased at Middlebury
store, a ticket to the Middlebury fair
and initials on his collar. Telegraphic
communication was had with authori-
ties here and the description of the
70 hn PC
father, who went Friday to view the
body.
Besides his parents, who are nearly
prostrated with grief, he is survived by
two brothers, Edward and Fred, and
his grandfather, E. j. Mathews.
The funeral services were held at the
home of his parents at o'clock Mon
day afternoon. There was very large
attendance of relatives and friends
from town, including large delegation
from the Middlebury High school, at
which the young man was a student.
The High school was closed for the af-
ternoon on account of the funeral. The
services were conducted by Rev. A. A.
Lancaster, pastor of the Congregational
church, assisted by Rev. Richard B.
Esten, pastor of the Memorial Baptist
church. The family have the wide
spread sympathy of great many peo-
pie not only in Middlebury, but in
numerous other towns where they are
widely known. There was very large
display of floral offerings. The burial
was in the West cemetery of this vii
lage and the pail bearers were six of his
classmates in the High school: Milo
Moore, jr., Carl Whitney, Kenneth
Gorham, Clyde Balm, Homer Harris
and Henry Chapman.

The ring was not discoverable that day and he was ready to give up, but MT. Seip was determined to have that ring if it took all the rest of the summer. MT. Seip then offered re- ward of $75 for the recovery of the ring. This offer depopulated an ir- rigatiOn camp near by and for that matter brought everything else in the Buckeye country to a stand

 Several days ago MT. Sep, ac- companied by his wife, his father-in- law and other members of the fam fly, went into the Buckeye country on a fishing excursion. The fish were evidently away on vacation; anyway, they were not biting some thing fierce and the party decided to go in bathing instead. There was stretch of water about fifty feet long. ten or fifteen feet wide and of an average depth of three feet. The bottom was quicK sand. After spend- ing some time playing in the water, the party emerged, when MT Seip discovered the absence of his diamond ring and it was some ring; the dia- mond was a carat and a half and the gewgaw altogether was worth $225.
 An apparently hopeless search for the ring was begun. The party form ed a line across the pool and Waded the length O. it feeling with bare feet

representing n value of $20.400,0O
This may seem somewhat astounding.
but 1t is entirely feasible for agricul-
tural opportunities in Umatilla coun-
ty are superior to those of Denmark
which is a cold. bleak country with
a poor soil naturally. In fact it is
so cold and bleak it is common
practice among the farmers to blan-
ket their COWS at pasture.
In the irrigated districts of this
county conditions are far superior to
those in Denmark for 'dairying. The
wheat sections are also better for
producing hogs and poultry. Great
numbers of hogs yielding large an
nual revenues can be produced in
connection with growing wheat and
, at the same time improve soil con-
ditions for the permanent production
of wheat.
1t is estimated that $17.00O.0 900
worth of meat products We're brought
into the Northwest last year and that
$6,O00,000 worth of live hogs were
brought into Oregon last year passed
through Umatilla county which is
perhaps the best hog producing sec
tion of the American continent. AL
falfa, corn and field peas in rotating
with wheat will solve the problem.

provisos of crop rotation the soil
