SEND SHEEP TO
PEND O'RE|LLE
NORTHERN FORESTER | WOULD
RENT THE RESERVE.
Lack of Room In Wenaha
Will Cause Many to Take
Advantage of Offer.

Thousands of head of sheep from
this section Of the state will te grazed
in the Pend Oreille and Occur d'Alene
forest reserves during the coming sea-
son, according to the decision Of sew
eral prominent sheep men, reached at
the annual meeting Of the Washing
ton Wool Growers association, held
Tuesday morning in the office of For
est Supervisor j. M. Sohmitz at Wallq
Walla.
@. II. Adams. assistant district for
>ester of District No. appeared before
the meeting and informed the associa-
tion that there were grazing lands
in his district capable Of supporting
100000 head of sheep during tie com
ing season. and that il was available
for any and all desirable sheep owners
of this section who cared to ship their
sheep to that country for the summer.
The Wenaha reserve has room only
for 10000 and for this reason has
been overcrowded in past years, and
is not now sufficient to care for all the
sheep local owners are desirous of
turning onto it. Many applications
have to pe turned down every year
and more or less dissatisfaction has
resulted over the allotment.
For this reason O. A. Hales of
Waitsburg announced that he would
ship 10000 sheep to the Pend Oreille
forest reserve this spring and others
are seriously contemplating the same
move. All present were deeply in
terested in Forester Adams propos-
ition and are now Investigating freight
rates and other details Of financing
such movement Of their stock. They
telieve that if enough pasture is not
available in this section of the state
that money can be saved by shipping
their sheep northwards from where
they could be shipped to eastern mar
kets.

Mr.. and Mrs. Ogle were united in

Shipping Wheat From the Rock.

Live Wire: The Interior Warehouse
company shipped last week IL cars of
wheat. being ahout 5000 sacks, from
the warehouse at Pilot Rock, which is
the highest record made for that sta
tion in one week up to this time. Mr..
Eggerth. the local manager there,
is endeayoring to get the house as
nearly empty as possible by the time
the roads get good again, as there are
number Of farmers who were I'M
able to get warehouse room last fall
and the grain still remains stacked
up in the field with straw piled over it.
Because of the fact that there have
teen some years when the grain yields
of that country have been short. The
companies have not builded extra
large houses, and consequently when
the price did not justify selling, there
was not nearly enough room for stor.
ing the wheat and barley raised in
that vicinity.

TWO FATAL ACCIDENTS INHOUR
Pendleton Is Shocked BY Death of Boy
and IL Year Old Girl.

Pendleton papers Of Wednesday re-
port two sad accidents which occurred
in that city within an hour. The
first victim was Lloyd Hall, sixteen.
year-old high school boy, youngest son
of Mr.. and Mrs. James Hall of Cur
dane. The tragedy occurred at the
family residence shortly before
o'clock a. m.
The young man and bis uncle, Ed
McBroom had been killing rabbits
the day before with a .22 Winchester
rife. leaving the magazine full of car
tridges. Wednesday morning the Toy
picked up the gun with the intention
of shooting raEtit. At the time his
mother called to him that it was time
to go to school, and he started to hand
the gun to his little sister. Evidently
he had cooked 1t and while the mug
zle was pointed toward bis breast. il
was accidentally discharged. Death
was almost instantaneous.
The second accident occurred just
before 8 O'Clock by the wheels of the
Walla Walla local train, near the
Woolen mills. where the track inter
sects Court street. The victim was
Ethel, the little l2-year-old daughter
OF J. B. Grubb. The only eye, wit
ness to the accident was Katherine
Dority, eleven years old. who was on
her way to school. She saw the little
GTubb girl running evidently in an at
tempt to cross the track in front OF
the oncoming train. The next she
saw was the body beneath the wheels
OF the engine. The mangled remains
were picked up and taken to the depot
in the baggage car.

Rabbits at Lakeyiew.

Lakeview Examiner: The thousands
of rabbits that now infest this valley
promise to become a nuisance right
here in town unless there is decided
change in the weather in the imme-
diate future. At night they come al
most to the business center of town in
their search for food, and moonlight
hunting parties are now quite popular.
Wherever there is stack Of hay the
bunnies swarm around it, and even
the trees and shrubbery in the city
park are threatened with destruction.
At meeting of the Ladies' Civic I'm
provemeut club the question Of pIo-
teoting the park from rabbits was con-
sidered, and it Ia likely it will have
to be inclosed with rabbit-proof fence
in order to save the trees and shrub
berry. South of town the country lit
orally swarms with the pests, and at
farms many of them 60 into the cor
rails and refuse to leave. Even in some
of the baokyaFds the rabbits have
made trails in their efforts TO seonre
food.

EXPLORER SCOTT
GIVES UP HIS LIFE
SUCCUMBED IN PERILOUS RE-
TURN FROM SOUTH POLE.
Heroic Englishman Faces In

and Without Regret.

| A heart rendipg narrative comes
from New Zealand, given by the sur
vivors of Captain Scott's South Pole
English exploration party. Scott and

Captain Robert r. Scott wrote with
dying hands his quest into the Ant
| arctic region that the world might
know. This was found beside the
| corpse and cabled to London. In part
it says:
"The causes of the disaster were not
due to faulty organization but mis-
| fortune and all the rsk that had to be
undertaken. We first lost our pony
transport in March. 1911. which
obliged me to start later than I in
tended. Second, the weather through
out the outward journey, especially
the long gale at S3 degrees, stopped
us and the soft snow we encountered
in the lower reaches of Beardmol 9
glacier again reduced our pace.
For four days we were unable to
leave the tents. A terrific gale is
blowing about us. We are weak.
Writing is difficult / appeal to our
countrymen to see that those who de-
pend upon us are properly cared for.
Had we lived we would have had a
tale to tell Of hardihood, endurance
and courage which would have stirred
the hearts OF all Englishmen. These
rough notes ty our dead codes must
tell the tale,'
,rhe fact that Petty Officer Evans
died from ooacussion of the brain as
early as February IL seems to indicate
some accident, possibly involving the
loss of portion of the equipment.
Captain Gates died on March II,
which clearly shows that the party
were in dire straits and must have un-
dergone terrible sufferings during the
remaining 10 days.
Captain Scott's party found Captain
Roald Amundsen's tent and records at
the south pole. On the return trip,
about March 80, 1912, IL miles from

from hunger and exposure, and the
death of SCOTT, Bowers and Wilson
virtually was due to that They died
soon after the blizzard swept down the
party. The death of Evans resulted
from fall. The other members of
the expedition are reported to be in
good health. A searching party reach
ed the bodies and records of those who
persisted some time later.

man Suhl and Spence Bentley. all well
known farmers of the section between

from trip of several months duration

Lum Pambrun and another man were
