DISAPPOINTED OREGON
CITY MAN IS SUICIDE

Oregon City. Dec, 2S.--Lured from
the east by tales of wealth in the
orchard business In the northwest,
Charles Hohne, a former New York
hotel man. Is dead today with bull
let from his own revolver In his
brain. Dependency, because his
dreams OF prosperity were shattered.
is believed to have led him to COM
init suicide. Hohne, accompanied by
his two sisters, came to Oregon City
last June after he had purchased an
orchard tract from local real estate
concern. Instead OF bearing orch
ard. he found the tract covered with
stumps, rocks and underbrush. He
brought suit against the real estate
company and obtained Judgment
recently. A receiver was appointed
for the company and Holmes judg-
ment was worthless. After wander
ing several miles over the country
yesterday, Hohne shot himself.

day on the Williams creek divide.

NAL having previously been caught In
a steel trap set there. One shot from

panther is beautiful specimen. with
massive head, powerful legs. and
heavy fur OF rich tan. He had eyi-
IDENTIFY lain in the trap for several
days. as he was lanky and somewhat
shrunken. The cat attracted q large
crowd at Burkhalter's garage. where
he was first taken.
This is the second panther Mr..
Davidson has taken this winter, both
falling into his trap on the Cave trail.

! been accorded. A similar revocation
occurred at Mersina. 1t also is said
that the military authorities prevent
ed embarkation elsewhere in Syria.
The circular also accuses the Otto
man government of a violation of the
Lausanne treaty no sooner than e
was signed, which violation has con-
tinued until now. The Ottoman gov
ernment never seriously adopted any
measure whatsoever to stop immedi-
ately in conformance with its solemn
engagements, the acts of hostility in
Libya, did nothing for the liberation
of Italian prisoners of war.
Ottoman soldiers, commanded by
the same officers, with the same arms
and flags, regained Tripolitaine and
Cyrenaica after the treaty. Enver
Bey directed that the Libyan hostllit-
les end in November, 1912. Aziz Bey,
with 500 Turkish regulars never left
the region until the end of June, 1913.
The manner in which both were well
coined on their return to Turkey
shows that their course was officially
approved. The Italian government is
able to cite the names of over one
hundred Turkish officers still remain
ing in Syrenaica-
THE circular declares a holy war

ians in Africa and cites the French
capture of a Turkish mission bearing

lar is quoted as follows:
