LOS ANGELES, Aug. 19-Southern

that survey is now being run for a
railroad which is to connect Ensenda,
Lower California, with the Southern
Pacific of Mexico and Magdalena by
way of Mexical.
The project is reported to be back
ed by British capital and L. B. Royse,
representative of the syndicate. made
the announcement in Magdalena that
the Huerta government would renew
a concession made years ago for this
road by the Mexican government. The
road is 10 be 450 miles long and will
open a rich mining and agricultural
country in Lower California and So
nora, whose development has beer
hindered by lack of railroad facilities
The capitalists represented by
Royse have vast interests in this dis
crict which are worthless without rail
roads. The report is substantiated by
the fact that. when officials of the f
Paso and southwestern were at I'm
-perial recently in denying a rumor
7tkat they would enter this city, they
told of surveys that were to be made
south of the line.

TELLS HOW HE
LIVED 1O6 YEARS

PARIS, Aug 19.-Pierre Schamel
Roy, the only living man whose hand
ever clasped that of Napoleon Bona
parte, today celebrated his 106th
birthday by rising at o'clock and
taking long walk through the
streets of Neuilly and along the banks
of the Seine. Later in the day he was
rendered an informal reception by fell
low imperialists. Quite poor, unmar-
ried, Roy lives in a two-room apart
ment, his only income being a gov
ernment pension of 40 cents a day
Imperialist sympathizers occasionally
help the old man with donations. His
mind is as clear as a fell, his hand is
perfectly steady, yet he was "playboy'
to the King of Rome. Napoleon's be-
loved "L'Aiglon," in the palace at
Versailles. 1t was only at st. Helena
that Roy remembers seeing the en-
peror. There he saw him four times
Until Roy was 60 years old he was
rather a heavy drinker. He drank
wine. Since then, he has drunk milk
principally, though now and then he
still takes glass of wine with meals
He has never taken any particular
care of himself attributing his long
life to open-air walks, lack of excess
ses save drinking "when he was a

DIGGS PLACES THE
BLAME ON WOMAN

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 19.-'I was
unable to shake the woman off. !"
That in his own words summed up the
defense of Diggs why Miss Warning
ten was discovered living with him in
a Reno bungalow.
Two hours of uninterrupted testi-
mony was given by Diggs to impress
the jury by assertions and insinu-
ations, that the Warrington girl prac-
xically dominated him. Having cast
her fortune with him she refused to be
shunted aside, he testified, even
though he pleaded business ruin and
family ties and impending prosecu-
ton by his wife and father through
the juvenile courts. Upon Miss War
rington he sought to place response
bility for inducing Miss Norris to ac-
company the three to Reno.

THIRD ALFALFA CROP CUT.
Many Cattle to BE Fed by Stanfield
Farmers During Winter.

STANFIELD, Ore. Aug. 19.-The
cutting of the third crop of alfalfa be-
gan at Stanfield Saturday and within
the next month thousands of tons of
fine hay will have been placed in the
stack. The rains of the last few days
have been Of great benefit to the
growing grass and have placed the
ground in excellent shape for the pro-
duction Of the fourth crop. Climatic
conditions have been favorable this
year and most of the ranchers have
put up their hay without having il
wet, although some who were late
suffered from the rains.
The hay this year is of excellent
quality and the heavy yield assures an
abundant supply for all feeding pur'
poses. TIL average yield this year has
been eight and nine tons per acre
With the incheased acreage more bee
and dairy dairy cattle are being i'm
| ported, and thousands of head will be
fed here this winter.
