CAMELS AT COUNCIL.
Shriners VIII Have Them on Tap at
Dallas.

Dallas, Texas.-Moila Temple of
st. Joseph, Mo, will not be the only
Shrine that will have camels in at
tedance at the meeting of the I'M
perial Council, Ancient Arabic Order
Mobiles of the Mystic Shrine, in this
city next May. Mobiles of Hella Tenn
pie of this city are celebrating the
arrival of two white Siberian camels,
of the double-humped variety. These
animals are now making their home
at the Dallas zoo and are being
groOmed and fattened so that their
appearance will be in keeping with
all the requirements of the most fas-
tidious Arab, when the time comes
for the big parade that will feature
the Imperial Shrine meeting. Sew
eral local enthusiasts are already
talking of a pilgrimage to be made
on these desert carriers to Ben Hur
Temple at Austin and Ell Nina Tenn
pie at Galveston, for the purpose of
formally inviting the Mobiles of the
respective Temples to Dallas next
May. 1t is declared it will be the
first pilgrimage of the kind in the
annals of Shrinedom, and Hella Tenn
pie is anxious to inGugurate this new
est of Shrine features.
Hella Temple purchased the two
camels in order to be properly pre-
pared to welcome the distinguished
sons of the desert who will come to
Dallas from every Shrine city in
North America for the purpose of at
tending the Imperial Council and
participate in the festivities of
Shrine week. Noble George H.
Green, Past Imperial Potentate of
the Order of the Shrine, has been
formally designated as Keeper of
the Camels," and it is planned to
place these animals at the disposal
of the imperial officers when they
arrive here to preside over the ma
tional meeting.

Lounsberry came here several
years ago, purchased tract of land
between Jacksonville and Central
Point and set it out to fruit trees.
He had established a good credit at
the banks, always met his obliga-
tions, lived quietly and was well
thought of. He comes of a we'll
known pioneer Dakota family and
his father is prominent politician.
He had been a railroad mail clerk
before becoming an orchardist
At the time OF his capture he was
supposed to be east on land business
and his arrest was a great shock to
his friends. After Identification he
confessed to having robbed the mail
car at Redding a year ago.
Fourteen witnesses were sub
poenaed from this section by Louns-
berr" and the government to testify
as to his character.

INCREASE THEIR STOCK
Bagley Canning Company to Increase
Capital Stock to S25, 900 and
Enlarge Business.

DR.. w. r. Bagley, who returned
few days ago from Portland, re-
ports that application has been made
to the secretary of state to increase
the capital stock of the Bagley Can
ming Company. The additional stock
has been subscribed by the original
stockholders, the total issue being
$4,000.
The company is preparing plans
for a warehouse, which will be erect
ed at once, and the company will
also put in an up-to-date vinegar
plant. The storage vats will be COM
pleted within the next two weeks
and about 5000 boxes of apples, now
on hand, will be made up into vine
gar, with the intention of a larger
output if possible next year.
As soon as the roads get so that
it will be possible to haul wood the
cannery will again resume work and
will process" its prunes. After
prunes are dried they are put
through a steaming process and
packed in boxes. The company has
about 25 tons on hand which it will

TALENT LOCAL NEWS.

DR.. w. R. Bagley has returned
from his business trip to Portland.
w. H. Norman and his little son
went to Ashland Saturday to remain
until Sunday.
Sheriff Singler was in Talent on
official business between trains Sat
urday forenoon.
F. L. Crouch, the National Pack
ing Company man from Ashland, was
in the city Saturday interviewing our
citizens.
George Cyester, the jeweler. has
gone to Sacramento to take a posi-
ton in one of the leading jewelry
stores there.
A load of young people drove to
Ashland Friday evening to attend the
minstrel show given by the junior
class of the high school. They re-
port a most excellent entertainment.
There was a social dance given at
l. o. o. F. hall Friday evening, by
Mr.. Works. The young people en-
joyed the pleasures of tripping the
light fantastic toe until well towards
Saturday morning.
Mrs. r. H. Jones and daughter
Viola and son Theodore left Satur-
day morning for Ashland, whence
they departed for Coffee county,
Kansas, where Mrs. Jones goes to
care for her father, who is suffering
from the debilities incident to old
age.
Charles Tryer, who some time ago
took the examination for messenger
for the Wells-Fargo people, was
called out Saturday, because of the
delay of trains and the inability of
the regular messengers to reach their
destinations in time to return on
schedule.
Everybody in Talent as we'll as
elsewhere is engaged these days in
discussing the weather, and frequent
ly this dis" is omitted. The local
rural carrier declares that the roads
are something fierce, and when the
trains are so late as to delay his
starting out in the morning it is
even tougher.
The Portland papers report that
the United States Forest Service has
appropriated $500 to be spent on the
Anderson creek road leading over to
the Applegate valley. This will be
good news to the citizens of that part
of the country and will doubtless re-
suit in increasing Talents trade from
that direction.

of the robbery until charged with the
crime.

Lounsberry is not in need of money.
as he engaged quarters for his fam
lily at the best hotel here and was

Claimed Buncoed in Orchard Buy.

Roseburg, Jan. 17.-Allegins that
he was hoodwinked as to climatic
and soil conditions, quality and val
ues of soil and earning opportunities,
William F. Plaman of Mckenzie, N.
D., has filed an action for $4,000
damages in the circuit court here
against the Southern Oregon Or
chards Company, which in June,
1910, sold him 19 acres of HIelrose
orchards. Plaman recites that the
land cost the company from $3.50 to
$50 an acre, but that, under false
representations they induced him to
enter into purchasing agreement at
$3.50 an acre, on which he paid $500
down. To make this payment, he
says, and to pay the expenses of him
self and family coming here, he
mortgaged his $4,000 farm in North
Dakota for $1,000, and he is about to
lose this on a foreclosure.
Among the things which Plaman
says the company told him was that
the land at Melrose would yield in
apple crops an average profit of $791
an acre for seven consecutive years,
that railroad line was being built
past the place, and that lands in the
neighborhood were advancing in
price as high as $3.50 an acre. Upon
personal investigation, he says, he
found these assertions to be gross
falsehoods and learned that better"
land in the same locality could be
bought for not over $25 an acre.

kins county to decide.
Five years ago father and mother
md little boy put up overnight at the
,uly hotel in Lennon, S. d., mid
prairie town.
They gave their name as Ellingson
nd said that they were on their way
an Oregon homestead. In the
morning the father and mother had
gone, but the little boy remained. He
said his parents had left him lecause
they were afraid of him.
On looking at the child the hotel
people understood why the father and
mother had been afraid.
SCALED LIKE A FISH
The boy, though strong and well
formed for his eight years, was Gov
cred with leathery skin scales like a
large fish.
Local physicians refused to touch
the case, but said the disease was no,
contagious, SO Reynold was sent to
the county poor farm.
There he was known as THE Croco-
die Boy ;.nd people came from
miles around to see him.
ReynOld was strong and studious
with a pleasant nature, and save for
his disease would have been a normal
child. He never spoke OF his father
and mother, and preserved a pro-
found silence as to where be had come

He called Reynolds aiiliction 'con-

his suggestion Perkins county decided
to send Reynold to Minneapolis for
medical apd scientific attention. SO
two weeks ago Revnold came to Min

FRENCH SOLDIERS
IN NEAR MUTINY
Object TO Extension Of Army
Term TO Three Years.

Paris, May 22.-Some French sol.
diers are displaying considerable op-
position to the decision of the gov
ernment to keep them for another
year in active service instead of dis
charging them at the expiration Of
their two-year term.
Demonstrations have occurred in a
number of garrison towns. The gov
ernment is acting with great energy
in suppressing opposition.
A number of soldiers who took part
in demonstration at Toulon on Sun
day were tried by courtmartial and
sentenced to serve the rest OF their
term with the disciplinary battalions
in Northern Africa.
At Macon 100 soldiers assembled in

The first testimony connecting eth

took the stand He testified bluntly
that AtteauY had asked him II he

Details Alleged Conference.
Breen said he knew both Collins
and Atteaux. In January, 1912, he met
Atteaux at the latter's Office. This
was few days before the dynamite
episode. The conversation was in re.
gard to the Lawrence strike and At
teaux asked him ii he could secure
any dynamite. When Breen replied
In the negative Atteaux said perhaps
Mr. Pittman might get some.
The Pittman mentioned by the wit

with whom the state alleges Wood,
Atteau1 and Collins conspired. Pitt

Pittman arrived at Atteaux's office

paid $500 by Atteaux for his part in
the affair, he testified.
Breen said he and Collins took 4
