not be the fault of the Union if
within the next two years there is
not a good broad highway-gravel

county seat to the northern bound

to see the population of East Side
treble what it is today and every
family in the town own at least one
benZine wagon which will cover the
distance to the county seat in less
than two hours. o, yes, the people
up there and down here will know

Twenty Thousand acres of land in
Coos county, Ore., was ordered for
telted yesterday to the United States
from the G. A. Smith Lumber COM
pany, in decree signed by Federal
Judge Bean.
The forfeiture was made as a.
settlement under the innocent pur-
chaser' statute, passed by congress
to protect purchasers of timber lands
from the Oregon & California Rail-
road company, which has acquired
the lands under government grant.
The defendant timber company
had purchased the land in a large
block from the railroad company,
paying more for it than $3.50 an acre.
Under the terms of the land grant
the Oregon & California railway was
authorized to sell these lands to
actual settlers only, in blocks of 100
acres at $3.50.
The above appeared in the daily
papers as an Associated Press dis
patch from Oregon. If the govern
ment continues to force poor Mr..
Smith to disgorge he will not be
in condition to finance many more

mcAlpine Murdered.

Murder was the verdict returned
on Monday afternoon by the cor
oner's jury which Investigated the
death of John McAlpine, a wealthy
lumberman found shot to death in
the basement of his palatial resi-.
dence at Duluth early last FRIDAY
morning. The jury finds that death
was caused by gunshot wound in
the head, the weapon being in the
hand of some person unknown. The
case is the most puzzling which has
confronted the Duluth police for
years and they will continue their
Investigations. The next official
body to take up the murder mystery
will probably be the grand jury,
which meets in September.
McAlpine was found dead in the
basement of his home about
O'Clock on the morning of August
Is by his stepson, Dale McAlpine.
The latter testified that he did not
see the revolver which was later
found short distance from the
body. Others in the house at the
time were Mrs. John McAlpine, Mrs.
Dale McAlpine and Miss Margaret
Bergen, the maid, all of whom de-
clare they heard no shot fired, but
their evidence was in other respects
conflicting.

More Blackleq Reported.

which were under two years of age.
After cattle arrive at that age they

1t appears to us that cattle raisers
should protect themselves against

Harry Thaw Escapes From Asylum.

In we]l-planned scheme Harry
Thaw secured his liberty from Mat
teawan asylum for the criminal in
sane early on Sunday morning.
Probably with the connivance of
his guard, Thaw took advantage of
the occasion when the milkman
called at the Institution to make a
dash for liberty. An automobile
was, very conveniently, passing at
the time and Thaw jumped into it
and was whirled away at a mile-a-
minute clip.
A dispatch from Coaticook
Quebec, dated August 10, says:
"Harry X. Thaw was arrested
here today. He drove into town at
2 O'Clock this morning, having en-
gagged a farmer to bring him from
Hereford, where he left Maine
Central train last night. He de-
clares he is the man who escaped
from Matteawan last Sunday, but
says the officials cannot hold him be-
cause he has committed no crime.
Two companions of Thaw have also
been detained under suspicion Of
having committed an offense in
another and friendly nation. The
two men engaged counsel but re-
fused to disclose their identity.
Thaw was arraigned before Justice
of the Peace Dupuy today and was
remanded to Sherhrooke jail. The
Canadian immigration authorities
declared this afternoon that Thaw
would be deported.
Application for a writ of habeas
corpus, demanding the immediate
release of Harry X. Thaw, fugitive
slayer of Stanford White, was sub
mitted yesterday to Judge Globensky
in the superior court at Sherbrooke
by Charles D. White, a lawyer re-
tanned by telegraph over night by
the Thaw family. This move, re-
garded at first as a formality to
bring Thaw into court after his
arrest as fugitive from Matteawan,
was subsequently, explained by his
counsel as being more significant.
Counsel contended that he has been
detained illegally and that, through
habeas corpus, he should be set free
at once.
A press dispatch from New Hamp-
shire says: "New Hampshire does
not want Harry K. Thaw within it's
boundaries. In the event that he
re-enters the state through deporta-
tion proceedings in Canada and legal
justification can be found for the
act, he will be surrendered promptly
to the New York authorities. This
declaration was made today by Gov
ernor Samuel D. Felker.''

the arbitrating end of it without

Teutonic cognomen had something
to do with the very fraternal feeling
that the SANITY City Dutch had for

they insisted on Heine as the umpire
for the pending battle.

this season that they haven't beaten,
as the first game between these
teams went to the St. Cloud team by
a score of 3 to s. The home team is
determined to avenge their former
defeat this coming Sunday: and will
play their best baseball in, order to
even things up with this team which
is really the best team that has
played on the home grounds this
season. 1t appears as if the home
team has got out of their recent
slump and are back at their old
stride. The team will be further
strengthened by the addition of
Wilkes, who has been engaged to
play with the team the rest of the
season, and who can be used to good
advantage at any place on the field.
Everybody turn out and see the best
game of the season.

KILLED AT WAHK0N
Colin Livingston, While Intoxicated,
is Struck by Passenger Train
and Instantly Killed.
Livingston Had Been Employed With
500 Construction Gang for
Less Than a Week.

summoned to Wahkon on Monday at
noon to Investigate the death of a
man who was killed early that morn
ing By a passenger train. The
doctor hurried to that point and
found in the depot the body of a
man which had been removed from
the railroad tracks. Investigation
disclosed the following facts:
The unfortunate mans name-as
shown by an Identification card in
one Of his pockets Colin
Livingston. This card requested
that in case of accident or death
Robert Livingston of Muskegon,
Mich, be notified. A letter from
his sister, who lives at the same
place, was also found in his pocket
and a receipt for a check of SS.47,
which had been left at the Rex hotel,
which bore the date of August 49,,
in the early morning of which-be-
tween and 3:30-Livingston met
his death.
Livingston's body was found by
fellow workmen on the railroad right
of way at about 5 O'Clock on Monday
morning and removed to the depot.
The man was probably sitting on the
end of a tie or on a rail when he was
struck by the cowcatcher of the
fast passenger train which went
through Wahkon between and $3.50
that morning. An examination of
the body, which had been hurled a
distance of Is feet, showed that it
had been badly crushed on the lower
left side and that the right temple
was bruised. Death was probably
instantaneous.
Livingston was employed with the
construction crew working on the
500 spur at Wahkon and had been
there only five days. According to
the testimony of fellow workmen,
he had been drinking heavily during
Sunday and Sunday night, and
shortly before the passenger train
was due had entered the boarding
car and offered a companion drink
from a bottle. This companion,
however, refused his offer and ad-
vised him to go to bed, saying, "You
know you will have to go to work in
the morning." or words to that
effect. Livingston then left the car
and was not again seen until his
mutilated body was discovered on
the right of way.
The coroner decided that there
was no necessity for impaneling a
jury and ordered that the dead
mans relatives be notified and given
reasonable time to claim the body.
In the meantime the remains were
turned over to the local undertaken
with instructions to inter them at
the expense of the county if not SO
claimed.
Livingston is said to have been a
we'll educated, gentlemanly fellow
who commanded the respect of both
the construction boss and the men.
Whiskey was doubtless responsible
for his death and in all probability
for the fact that he was employed
with d gang of railroad laborers,

ace to Human Life.

1t has been demonstrated by physi-
clans and other experts that the COM
mon house fly carries typhoid germs.
Therefore. 1t is necessary that great
care be taken not to breed them.
The old adage IAN ounce of preven-
tion Is better than a pound Of cure
may be applied especially to flies, for
measures to prevent their coming can
be used more effectively than methods
for destroying them after they arrive.
The housekeeper should insist that
not a drop of slop of any kind be
thrown about the door. and that all
sink-drains and cess pools be securely
covered and that no open slop pals
be allowed to stand near the house,
inviting a congregation of these sum
mer pests.
Owners OF country homes some
times forget that the manure pile is
"a menace to the health of the family.
particularly is this the case when
within easy reach of the dwelling.
