DEATH s OF
PAST WEEK
MRS. MARGARET c. BREWER.


Mrs. Margaret C. Brewer, 81 years
old, pioneer of the Willamette valley
of 1853 and of Mound Prairie of
1859, died last Friday at the home of
her son, Loren H. Brewer, in Ho-
GUAM. Her death marks the pass
ing of the last of the early pioneers
of the Mound Prairie district and of
a remarkable woman. Mrs. Brewer
was born and grew to womanhood in
Georgia. She was married at 10 and
soon after she and her husband
Joined a wagon train, the destination
Of which was the gold field of Cali
fornia. The party reached Eastern
Oregon. There they divided. part
going to California and the remain
der turning to Oregon, Mrs. Brewer
and her husband being among the
latter. In the Cascade mountains the
party was lost for three months. They
ran out of provisions, and men, wom-
en- and children died of starvation
and disease, and were buried in the
wilds. Finally the remnant of the
party reached the Willamette valley,
and Mr.. and Mrs. Brewer settled
there, remaining until 1859, when
they moved to Mound Prairie. While
they were living in the Willamette
valley the Indian uprising occurred,
and Mrs. Brewer many times was
forced to flee to the woods with her
children for safety. At Mound Prai-
RE they took up land and had an i'm
portant part in the development OF
that district. Later her husband was
made agent at the Oakville Indian
reservation, a position in those days
fraught with great danger. For the
past 10 years Mrs. Brewer had made
her home with her sons, spending the
summers at the home of N. w.
Brewer, near Oakville, and the win
tiers with Attorney L. H. Brewer of
Hoquiam. The body was taken to
Rochester and interment was made in
the Grand Mound cemetery Thursday

CURTA|LEO PRODUCTION
BOOSTS LUMBER PRICES
Advances of 81 on Common and 81
to 81 on Upper Grades Are Noted
During Last Week.

An advance in the price of manu-
featured lumber, including practi-
cally all grades, was made by the Pa
ciic Northwest manufacturers last
week. The advance was caused by
the unusual weather, which has
forced nearly all the mills to shut
down in the face of an excellent de-
mand, and has thus reduced the out
put of the section nearly IS per cent.
The log situation, which is the most
serious in the history of the indus
try. was another important factor in
the rise in quotations.
The advance became effective with
the issue of discount sheet No. 8,
which shows an advance of 81 on
common and advances of from 81 to
81 on most of the upper grades. The
new list also equalizes many Of the
discrepancies of the previous lists
and brings prices more nearly to a
normal basis.
The enforced curtailment of the
lumber output, which is now esti-
mated at nearly IS per cent Of the
districts cutting capacity, has been
caused by the extraordinary. weather
prevailing since the first Of the year
and which was at it's worst last week.
Most Of the mills which continued to
operate during January were forced
to close down after the storm of the
past week and with the cessation of
all railway traffic shipments have
been cut in half. The demand, too,
has picked up. and the mills which
aer able to get out lumber are nat
urally asking the higher prices for
it's delivery.
The log shortage is also becoming
serious. At the last meeting OF the
West Coast Lumbermen's association
logging men testified that it would
be many weeks before most of the
camps could reopen and that the
situation was the most serious in the
history of the industry. There is a
scarcity among all grades of logs and
it was said that many mills were pay
ing more than the current prices for
logs. The last quotations on logs
were Sc, 50 and $12, but some pur-
chases were reported at an advance
| of 81 on these quotations.

THREE KILLED AT DUPONT.
Explosion in Powder Plant Also Dam
ages $4,000 Worth of Property.

Three men were blown to pieces,
$4,000 worth of property destroyed,
windows shattered and houses for
miles around shaken when 700
pounds of nitroglycerin exploded
from some unknown cause in the gel
atine dynamite mixer house of the
Dupont Powder company at Dupont,
Monday morning. Workers in near
by buildings we're thrown from their
feet by the explosion, while the
debris of the shattered building was
scattered for wide distances.
John Bell, Gus Wolff and Nils p
Jess were the workers killed. They
were the only men in the building at
the time, and it was for this reason
officials of the company said the
cause of the explosion probably
would never be determined. All
three men were married and the fam
lilies lived at Dupont. Wolff is sur
vived by a widow and two young
children.

new HUNTING LAWS AID
KILLING Of GAME BIRDS
Warden FenneII. in Annual Report
Reviews Situation in This
County.

1T will be a number of years be-
fore the Blue Grouse are as plentiful
as they were three years ago, and the
Ruled Grouse or native pheasant
and the quail are only holding their
own" according to the annual report
OF Game Warden James Fennell, Just
made to the county game commits
sion, in which he states in this con-
nection that he does not believe "the
shorter season for bird shooting has
tended to increase the number of
birds because Of the fact that the
season opens Is days earlier, there
by giving more good weather for
hunting and the birds being that
much younger and less able to take
care Of themselves"
Deer are increasing rapidly in the
county, he says, especially in the set
tied districts, and he expects the in
crease to continue eff poaching and
the use of dogs can be prevented.
Without question there is some
poaching being done," he adds a lit
tie later, "but without a deputy and
with SO large a territory to supervise
l have been unable to catch as many
of the offenders as I DESIRE" Else
where he complains that 1.-The in
crease Of telephones throughout the
rural districts has enabled parties to
be warned Of my coming and in
creases the difficulties of securing re-
suits"
More people have fishing and hunt
ing licenses now, he says, and he ex-
presses the opinion that lake fishing
is better than it was two or three
years ago, but cit is quite evident"
he adds, that the Des Chutes river
is becoming very poor fishing" He
prosecuted Fl people last year, con-
victing 10.

 BY VILLA, CLAIMED
Carranza Paper Pictures Most Terrible Scenes of Countless Fiendish Acts Attributed to Bandits.
(By Review Leased Wire)

FL PASO, Oct. 16.-Villa's attack on Cusihuiriachic is described by survivors in an article printed by Fl Democrata, in Chihuahua City, as ac- companied by horrors without parallel in the recent revolution.
 Women and children fell as well as men in the massacre. The surviv ors told Of the case of woman who, because she had nursed the wounds of General Garza, was shot and wound ed and with her new born child, was soaked with petroleum and burned to death. Villa is reported as turning a deaf ear to all applications for mercy.
 We are informed" said the paper, that the people in the section are frightened to such an extent that they do not sleep in their houses, but seek refuge in the woods or in the interior of mines. If there were means of communication, that part of the state would be soon depopulated such is the horror of the people for the bandits ''

3FEDERAL COURT
 JUDGES SIT UPON
 COPPER QUEEN CASE
Greatest Legal Battle State Has Ever Known Centers About Attempt to Revoke Copper Queen Charter.

PHOENIX, Oct. 16-For the first time in history of federal courts of Arizona, three judges sat en banc here today to hear arguments in the suit of the Copper Queen Mining Con- pany to enjoin the state corporation commission from revoking it's charter for the alleged violations of the stat ute prohibiting the removal of case from a state to federal court with out consent of the other party.
 Judge Wm. w. Morrow of the ninth circuit court of appeals of San Fran cisco, presided. He organized the Ar izona court shortly after statehood and before an Arizona justice was named. Judge Wm. c. Vanfieet of the northern California division of the United States district court, and Judge Wm. H. SawteIle, of the Arizo- ma court, sat with him. The Copper Queen alleges the unconstitutionality of the statute and prays for an inter locutory decree. The decision will be rendered tomorrow.
 In the afternoon an impressive ar. ray of leading lawyers of the state were present when resolutions were read into the minutes of the late Judge Edw. Kent
