DR.. Ferguson takes Own Life

Hood River has never been so shocked
as on Wednesday night of last week,
when news spread of the tragedy OF
of DR.. K. E. Ferguson, who ended his
life by a shot from a revovler. The
shot was heard about two o'clock by
men working in an adjoining orchard.
About four o'clock Burns Jones ap.
preached the log house built by DR..
Ferguson in tall trees on his Belmont
place and called him, as he wished to
discuss some matters of business. Get
ting no response Mr.. Jones became
alarmed. He climbed the winding
stairway to the chamber, where DR.,
Ferguson has been sleeping, and the
dead body was discovered.
In a letter left by DIR. Ferguson he
gives as his reasons domestic troubles
and business difficulties with DR.. j. A.
Reuter-, a former partner, of The
Dalles.
Funeral services, conducted by Rev.
D. V. Polling, of The Dalles, were held
at the Odd Fellows hall at 1890 Friday
morning. Judge r. r. Butler delivered
an address of eulogy. Songs were rem
dered by Mrs. Carlton P. Williams, of
The Dalles, and Rev. Polling. The body
was taken to Portland for cremation
Friday afternoon.

Mrs. Shaw Attempts Suicide

Taking strychnine while in a state of
Mysteries last Friday morning, Mrs. M.
F. Shaw made an attempt to commit
suicide. DR.. j. F. Watt and DR.. j. M.
Waugh were called to the scene and
Mrs. Shaw was removed to the Cottage
hospital, where her stomach was re.
lieved of the poison by means of a
stomach pump. She was sufficiently
recovered Saturday to be taken to the
home of relatives at Cascade Locks.
1t was stated last Friday that Mrs
Shaw had formed suicide pact with
the late DR.. E. E. Ferguson, who took
his own life Wednesday afternoon Of
last week. Mrs. Shaw, however, de-
clared Saturday that there was no truth
in this statement.

, 19.-With a jagged cut in his
throat so large that rs stitches
have had to be taken in it, Lee
Frank lay weak and only semi
conscious today from loss OF
blood in the prison hospital here.
A corps of private physicians,
his family, and prison physicians
and nurses were at his bedside.
The best the physicians could
say for him was that he had Q
chance for recovery. The utmost
care is taken to prevent a reopen
ing of the wound.
When Frank occasionally came
from Inconsistencies, he alter
nately said, II guess they've got
me now" and asked clemency for
the fellow convict who assaulted
him as he SLEPT Saturday night.
The offender, William Green
sticks to his story today that he
did the deed without outside aid
or encouragement, but of his own
volition because he thought ut
ought to be done"
However, prison authorities
will investigate carefully to see
where he could have gotten the
big butcher knife which cut
Franks throat from the front to
almost the middle Of the back OF
the neck, along the left side.

VANDY PROVES OBDURA7E
VIRGINIA UNABLE TO GET
COMMODORES TO SWITCH
Harvard Game Conhict$--Orange ami
Blue IIas Two Dates To OTer
to Tcnncsscuns

CHARLOTTESVILLE. VA, December
l2.-Nirginia's football mana sement is
still encountering some difficulty in
getting the Harvard and Vanderbilt
dates adjusted on next years schedule.
Word has come from Nashville that
tho Commodores are not willing To
stage the contest with the Orange and
Blue as late as November lS-tcn DAYS
before the final game with the Univer.
sity OF North Carolina
An effort is being mado to get tho
Vanderbilt management to consent to
play on October IS. Virginia Military
Institute has been assigned this date
on the Virginia schedule, but has con-
sented to u shift. provided October %
is suitable to the Tennesseans.
Should the change suggested pan out,
Virginia will certainly have it's work
cut out for next fall. Two of the
longest trips on the schedule would
thus come on successive weeks, the
trip to and from Nashville would hard
ly give the players any opportunity to
rest UP before the squad would have to
board the train for Harvard. These
two games. & .cidedly the biggest listed,
would certainly put the eleven to
severe test.
Despite the hardship such a scheduls
would incur. the Virginia athletic au-
thorities are hopeful that the Commo-
dores will consent to play on October
IS. The desire is general for a eame
with both Harvard and Vanderbilt next
season.
The inference in q Baltimore paper
to-day that Hopkins had asked for a
game with Virginia next fall is news
here. while it is generally understood
that contracts with Randolph Ma con
and Richmond College will be renewed
for another season. These two dates.
September so and October IA. arc as yet
unified. The faculty committee on
athletics has consented to allow the
iirst-year football team to- play four
games away from the university each
season.
