= 1900 RABBITS ARE
KILLED AT HERAIISTON
+%%%%%%~%%>>>>>
(special Correspondence.l }


Hermiston, Ore, Jan. 25.-At the
rabbit drive north of town Wednes-
day of this week about 1900 rabbits
were killed with clubs. In the final
clubbing in the corral, 1913 were
counted and many were killed before
this spot was reached. Two men
were slightly hurt with clubs, but in
all, the drive was one of the best held
in years and means much to the set
tiers this season as the breeding sea-
son is soon at hand. 1t can be safe
ly estimated that this drive means
so 900 rabbits less on the project this
summer. Another drive takes place
next Sunday on the Western Land
e. Irrigation companys lands across
the Umatilla river and several hun

When Il murder is committed
there is invariably a motipe.
Sometimes it is obvious; son1e-
times its presence is masked be-
hind a complesity of possibili-
ties until it is we'll nigh impos-
stble to disentangle the slender
skein of fact from the varp and
woof 0 probabizity. But always
the motive is there. Look for
the woman" said Pere Tabaret,
the French detective, and in her
you will find the solution ofyour
mystery---D you find her." And
in the main he was right. Yet it
is not always the obvious woman
nor the obvious motive that is
responsible for a crime. Some
times the underlying cause rests
on deeper reasons than are APP
parent even to the closest ob-
server. Then only an accident
can give a Glen to the real GRIM
inal. And so it is NTH THE
Argyle Case"

kayton had opened his lips to ask
another question when there came an
interruption. Bruce Argyle burst into
the roo with a newspaper tightly
clinched in his hand. He was plainly
holding himself as he greeted the de.
tective ~courteously and a%pologized for
being late. Then he turned on the
lawyer in a storm Of wrath.

"Why, of course, Mr.. Hurley" agreed
kayton readily, and before Bruce

The old termagant was impressed by
both words and manner and regarded
him doubtfully for a moment. Then
she wheeled heavily upon the butler.

demanded iercely.
Finley shook his head. "There's

"Of COURSE" continued Mr.. Hurley,
"the argument against the burglar the
DRY is that nothing was stolen. although
the burglar may have been frightened
away"
you're convinced, then, that it was
a burglar?" asked Kayton.
"Well, ah-no," confessed the lawyer
with some hesitation. 81 was merely

be a lack of motive otherwise, or

"Miss Mazuret?" said Kayton in a
matter of fact tone.
"Oh, it couldn't be Miss Mazuret..'
protested the lawyer instantly. Its
incredible that a girl like her could

would be the sole heir under the will?"

Kayton.
Mr.. Hurley hesitated. "Well, now,
Mr.. Kayton, I'll tell you about that"
he said slowly. My client had an
idea that is not m among mil
