2,498 at Crater in August.

During the month of August 2,496
persons registered their names at the
Crater Lake National Park head
quarters, according to Superintend-
ent w. Frank Arant.
August was the best month of the
season for tourists" said Superin-
tendent Arant Saturday. The total
number of visitors of whom we have
a record during the entire season
up to September l was 3,635. This
has not been up to our anticipation
of the number of visitors to Crater
Lake and the Crater Lake National
Park, but is an increase over the
number for last year.
The tourist season is not nearly
over, but it Is hardly possible that
September will be as good a month
as August. Although it has been
somewhat stormy and some snow has
fallen at the lake. the season has
been fairly good and | expect large
number of tourists in the park this
and next month"

DOG SALE INSPIRES MUSE.
Oregon City Police Chief Receives
Many Congratulations.

Oregon City, Ore.-E. L. Shaw,
chief of police of Oregon City, has
received several letters of congratu-
lation from members of the Portland
and other humane societies, for the
novel plan evolved by him to save
the lives of impounded dogs con-
demned to die.
Several dogs were to have been
killed last Tuesday, but in the morn
ing papers of that day were an
nouncements by the chief that he
would try to sell the dogs at auction.
AS a result large crowd gathered
at the pound and several fine CANNES
were sold for fancy prices. 1t was
some time, however, before he got a
bid for mongreh but when the bid
ding started it was spirited, and
finally the animal was knocked
down" to little girl for almost as
much as was received for all the
others that were sold. She had to
open her savings bank to pay for the
animal.
The chief has received letter
from Portland woman, who did not
sign her name, in which was enclosed
the following verse printed on silk
Among the noblest in the land,
Though he may count himself the
! least,
The man I honor and revere,
Who, without favor, without fear,
In the great city, dares to stand
The friend of every friendless beast.

THE DEER l pIpN,T. GET.
(Bv "Dick Posev."l

(By Dick Posey.')
I beheld the antlered monarch as he
stood beneath the pine,
With the dignity of freedom breath
ing forth in every line.
The strong head. setting firmly on
the proud neck arched with
grace,
And the clean limbs, built and
moulded for the leader of the
chase.
And my heart beat hot within me
and the hunters keen desire
TOOK possession of my being
seemed to set my brain on fire.
All the instincts of my fathers, hand
ed down from sire to son,
Wakened from their dormant slum-
bers, sprung to life and claimed
their own.
l could see those spreading antlers
set above my study door,
And the pelt, a rug of beauty, on my
smoothly polished floor.
Roasts and steaks and tender outlets
teased my palate with a zest,
And the prowess of the hunter
nerved my arm to do its best.
Then | stalked him, slow and silent,
like the tiger at his prey,
STOPPED and crawled and twisted on
ward, deftly brushed each twig
away,
Till the sweat streamed from my
forehead and the dust was in
my eyes,
For | thirsted for the slaughter and
the winning of the prize.
Till, at last, / see him standing, mo-
tionless, within my range,
And his doe and fawn are feeding
just beyond him, and the
strange,
Wierdly beautiful surroundings
make a picture, calm and sweet,
And the artist Elm my bosom thrills
with ecstacy replete.
There he stood, a wondrous creature,
moulded by the Hand Divine.
why should |, another creature, seal
his destiny? Is mine
The right, with careless fingers, to
meddle with life's tangled
skein?
Quietly turned and left him, turned
and went back home again.

MAY SETTLE IN VALLEY.
Clarence Darrow Said to BE Looking
This Way With That in View.

That Clarence Darrow, the noted
Chicago lawyer, who was lately ac-
quilted on bribery charge at Los
Angeles, may come to Medford to
make his home is evidenced by re-
marks of his made Monday at the
Southern Pacific station. Mr.. Dar-
row passed through the city on No.
IA and talked to friends at the sta
tion during the short stop. He was
particularly desirous to know facts
concerning climate and the price of
small orchard tracts desirable for a
home, intimating that he intends to
retire from the legal practice as soon
as the second trial at Los Angeles
is concluded. This second trial does
not worry Darrow, or his friends, as
it is believed the evidence is more
flimsy than that presented in the
first trial.
With Mr.. Darrow was Fay Lewis
of Rockford, ILL.,, a. lifelong friend.
The party was on the way to Port
land, where Darrow will deliver an
address. Darrow did not care to dis
cuss the Los Angeles trial, but his
aged and worn appearance was suf-
ficient commentary. bearing out the
press reports that his recent expert
ences have added ten years to his

BRETHREN CONFERENCE
Annual District Conference i'm Ses-
sion at Church at Corner Of
Mountain Ave. and Iowa st. /

The Church OF the Brethren, on
the corner of Iowa street and Noun
tain avenue, has this week been q
ference week for the state district,
a number of delegates from various
parts of the state of Oregon con-
vened for the purpose of discussing
religious subjects and adopting ways
and means for the furtherance of the
gospel of Jesus Christ.
These people, commonly known as
"Dunkards," are well known, as there
have been a number of them in our
city for more than twenty years. In
the state there are nine well-estab-
lished congregations. However, it is
considered that Oregon and other
coast states are rather sparsely set
tied by these Industrious and pious
people. Especially as compared with
the middle and eastern states is this
true.
They number in the United States
more than 100000 communicates,
with strong representation in Asia
Minor, India and China, having a
united force of more than 1000 min
listers and elders.
They have no creed except the
word of God, which is adhered TO
closely, finding no non-essentials in
the sacred volume.
Delegates at the convention are
present from Portland, Newberg,
Lebanon, Myrtle Point, Bandon, Will
liams Creek and other nearby points.
s..{
ference is the unique method of car
ing for the assembly. Lodging is fur
nished free in the homes of brethren
and friends. Meals are served in
suitable building in the rear of the
church lot. The cafeteria method of
serving assures minimum expense
bill. All labor is donated and all
surplus accruing from the dining hall
is used in the mission work of the
state district.

TURNS STATES
EVIDENCE
ADMITS PLANTING DYNAMITE IN
LAWRENCE HOMES.
CLAIMS HE WAS TOOL OF OTHERS
AccOmplice of Millionaire Textile
Manufacturer Tells Details of
Dynamite Conspiracy to Implicate
Strikers at Lawrence Mills.

Boston.-William NJ. Wood. mil
lionaire president of the American
Woolen COMPANY, indicted by the
grand jury here for conspiracy to
plant" dynamite during the Law
renee textile strike, may be convicted
on the testimony of Dennis j. Collins,
an alleged aecomplice, who agreed to
turn states evidence. Collins was
indicted on a similar charge to that
against Wood.
Angered by what he termed an at
tempt to shift the blame for the Law
renee affair to his shoulders, Collins
sent for District Attorney Pelletier
and told his side of the case. He
freely admitted that he was involved
in conspiracy with mill owners and
that he did plant dynamite in the
homes of Lawrence operatives in an
effort to discredit the strike.
Tells of Conspiracy.
Collins told the prosecutor that he
met John Breen and Ernest Pittman
in Boston. Pittman, he said, deliv-
cred a package to Breen, who divid-
ed it into bundles. One of these
bundles, Collins said, was given to
him. 1t contained dynamite. Col
lins declared he took his bundle to
Lawrence and placed sticks of dyna-
mite at locations designated by
Breen.
Pittman, mentioned in Collins
confession, was member of one of
the largest textile mill construction
companies in New England. He
learned that an indictment had been
returned against him and committed
suicide when told that the probe
would be complete.
Paid Breen's Fine.
When arrested in Lawrence for
planting dynamite Breen refused to
go on the witness stand. He was
found guilty and fined $500. Dis
trict Attorney Pelletier says he can
prove that Wood paid breen's fine.
After subjecting Breen to the third
degree" in Boston, Pelletier declared
that Breen deserved ten years SEN
tence.
Evidence intended to show that
many Lawrence mill owners and city
officials knew that dynamite was to
be planted was submitted to the
grand jdfy by Pelletier.

RISKY POSTAL SERVICE.
In Russia the Government Opens All
Suspicious Packages.

In Russia tho Government Opens All
Suspicious Packages.
Our own service of mails is well or
gaRized. There is little doubt in the
mind of the average person that when
he posts letter it will reach its desti-
nation.
But in other lands he might well fear
for it's safety. In Russia, for instance.
any letter or parcel that is regarded
with suspicion is Immediately opened
chine gums it up again, so that the re-
cipient does not know that it has been
tampered with.
In Lapland the mails are carried in
sledges drawn by RENDERS. In the
wilds of the Caucasus the postman
holds a post Of danger. He must be
protected against brigands and against
the weather, for he often has to climb
mountains more than 10000 feet high.
Asiatic Russia, which is apt to be
