Virginia produced all the American
output of rutile in 1918. according to
the United States geological survey,
the deposits being located at Roseland.
Nelson county. During the year the
company which controls and works
these deposits produced 3o5 tons OF
rutile, valued at about $4,000.
A large part of the rutile produced in
1913 was used in the manufacture of
titanium carbide electrodes for are
lamps. A part Of the ilmenite found in
the deposits and separated by means
Of magnetic separator has been sold
for use in making electrodes for cleo
trio lights, and the experiments with
the electric furnace point to the pos

Fell 20 Feet to His Death.

A most distressing accident oc-
Cured last Monday morning at
the homestead of j. w. Simpson
few miles from Narrows in
which Mr.. Simpson lost his life.
He had been engaged in sinking
a deep well on his place and had
set off a blast at a depth of 80
feet. The blast opened a pocket
of gas and on Monday morning
Mr.. Simson went down to clear
the rock away that had been
loosened by the blast when he
became sick from the fumes and
called to those on the surface to
haul him up. He reached within
20 feet of the surface when he
tainted and fell 70 feet to the
bottom. breaking his neck and
both legs, besides numerous
other bruises.
His helpers brought the body
to the surface as quickly as pos
sible and heroic efforts were
made to resuscitate him. they
not realizing his neck had been
broken. DR.. Griffith was called
and he went down as quick as he
could but life had been extinct
for some time.
Deceased was rs years old and
leaves a wife and little child.
He was formerly in the employ
of G. w. Howell, the Portland
capitalist who is heavily inter-
ested in real estate in this sec
ton, and for several years came
here from time to time with Mr..
Howell as his chauffeur later
entering a homestead and also
worked for VIM. Hanley as dri-
yer of his car and in other capa-
cities. His wife and her sister,
Miss Culver. were with him
on the homestead and it is a
sad blow to both who are quite
young. He leaves besides one
brother, Lee. in this county. also
a sister in Portland and another
brother in North Dakata.
The remains were brought to
Burns and the funeral was held
Tuesday afternoon, services be-
ing conducted at the cemetery.
A large number of friends atten-
ded the funeral and there is deep
sympathy expressed by the en-
tire community for the bereaved
widow and relatives. Mr.. Simp-
son was well liked by all who
were acquainted with him and
his untimely death is very sad.

Man Killed at Paulina.

Harry Mcdowell, O stage
driver. shot and killed A G.
Scroggins. mail contractor, at
Paulina last Friday morning.
Both are well known here, Mr..
Scroggins having been connected
with the Prineville stage line
for good many years and Nc
Dowell has been driving for
some time. 1t seems the MUIR
dered man had just returned
from trip to Portland and had
made threats while in Prineville
on his way home against the life
of Mcdowell and repeated them
after reaching Paulina. Nc
Dowell overheard his threats
during the night as he slept In
the next room and the next
morning he accosted Scroggins
in the dining room and ask If he
intended to kill him and upon
an affirmative reply drew his
pistol and killed him. The man
telephoned to Prineyille for the
sheriff and coroner after he had
done the killing and later was
taken in custody.
The Times Herald has learned
of no cause for the killing and
no further particulars have been
received.
