ESCAPED PRISONER CAUGHT.

Last week Deputy Sheriff Burden
received tip as to the whereabouts of
Jim Turner, who with DR.. Forbes, an
all around undesirable citizen, flew
Sheriff Stark's coop, at Okanogan, last
October, and Friday, in company with
Provincial Constable Stewart, of Mid
way, struck out into the fastness of
the mountains just across the line in
British Columbia to lime his bird.
Turner, who was in durance vile under
a white slavery charge, is a desperate
citizen, or at least is burdened with
that reputation, SO that the officers
were circumspect in approaching his
abode and were taking no chances in
letting Turner add murder to his other
string of evil doings. According to the
Information in possession of the Off
GERS Turner was cached away far up
in the mountains. The officers travel
ed by auto until within four miles of
the isolated cabin in which Turner was
presumed to be making his headquar-
ters, and then climbed the mountains
until within sight of the premises,
which was quite laborious undertak
| ing considering the flesh that Deputy
Sheriff Burden packs around. There
the sleuths waited until after the noon
hour, expecting when they made the
raid to find Turner eating his dinner.
They sized the situation up exactly
right for as they stepped into the house
with their hands on their guns in or
der to discourage any foolishness on
the part of the fugitive, they caught
Turner at the table. He was helpless
and submitted with a very poor grace
to arrest. They brought their prisoner
down to the border, but there he enter
ed protest against being taken across
without extradition papers. He is held
where he cannot get away andS the
Okanogan county officials will see to
it that his objections to crossing the
line are legally removed. The capture
is considered lucky one, and it is
expected that Turner's partner in the
Jail break, DR.. Forbes, will soon be in
custody. The next time Sheriff Stark
gets hold of them they are not going
to get away unless they can make
themselves invisible and float between
the bars and out of the keyhole.

SLIPPED BACK SEVERAL NOTCHES

Prior to last Sunday the Oroville
Gun Club was listed in the 1000 per
cent column, and after the Sunday
shoot it had slipped back to 900 per
cent, much to the disappointment of
the members and the friends of the
club. The record of the Sunday shoot
was to go against double tie, one
with Walla Walla and one with Odessa,
while Waitsburg was the regular con-
testant. In the tie shoot-off Oroville
lost to Walla Walla and won from
Odessa, but in the regular shoot the
locals lost to Waitsburg, Walla Walla
and Waitsburg making clean scores
while Oroville could accumulate only
"A targets.
That single miss was a shocking
misfortune. There were many Of the
local club members to face the traps
Sunday, the weather could not have
been more favorable, and yet out of
the IS participants only two could
make a clean string. Hedger and Mas
ters broke 20. Frank Taylor was the
last to shoot. He toed the scratch and
broke "a straight and then fell down
on the 25th. 1t was heartbreaking
final. That miss made a difference of
400 points in the clubs standing. How
ever, Mr. Taylor is not to blame for
the slip. He made a most creditable
record as it was. And breaking 25
would have left the club Just where it
was as regards ties, as both Walla and
Waitsburg broke 25. And in order to
win it will be necessary for the locals
to break rs straight every shoot dur.
ing the balance of the season, and even
then, in all probability the club would
be tied up with several clubs at the
close of the tournament The following
is the Sunday score: DR.. Masters rs;
Hedger 25; w. B. Sexson "a; Frank
Taylor "a; S. B. Gjerde %; Hare %;

GLORIOUS NEWS FOR OROVILLE
Official and Authoritative Announc 1nat the Can
adan Pacific Railroad Is to Build Branch
Line From Penticton to Oroville

receiving water this year, and the COM
pletion of the project will be hastened
as rapidly as that class of construc-
ton can be carried on, and we all
know that the British Columbia offici-
ais never procrastinate on any public
work that they take in hand, This
vast territory is to be cut up in small
tracts and will be occupied by ex-
soldiers of the Canadian army, the
finest lot of men in the provence.
There will be hundreds of families on
that large tract Of land and in two o.
three years a section of neglected
land now in it's natural state, with
only two buildings on its wide ex-
panse, with no sign that plow has
ever ravaged it's virgin surface, will
become a veritable Eden. And during
the making of that condition and for
ever after that garden spot is going
to draw much trade from and through
Oroville, and as the town puts on city
airs the residents of the district will
seek not only commodities from Oro-
Vile, but will flock here to take part
in and enjoy such entertainment az
the place will provide. And this rail-
road is the link that will put the sett-
lers in close touch with Oroville, ami
encourage their coming and going.
1t is a waste of space to attempt to
picture the benefits that this new line
Of railroad will prove to be to Oro-
vile. 1t is so plain to every one
familiar with the situation that there
needs be no further enlightenment
through the columns of the Gazette.
The following is the despatch that
has stimulated the above comments
and it will be read with feelings of
keen qualification by every resident of
Oroville and vicinity:
VANCOUVER, B. c., March Am
nouncement is made that the Kettle
Valley railway, G. p. R., subsidiary,
will next year build a branch from
Penticton south to the international
boundary at Oroville, g. distance Of
miles. The provincial gov
ernment proposes to open a great
tract of irrigated land there.
1t will contain the largest sold
ier's settlement in British Columbia
and in few years should be produc-
ing as much fruit as Vernon.
The Oroville weekly gazette. [volume] (Oroville, Wash.) 1905-19??, 1920-03-05

Vague rumors and deslutory re-
ports of the construction of railroad
between Penticton and Oroville that
have been in the air for months have
at last taken authoritative form, and
what was only a prospect of accom-
plishmnnt a short time ago can now
be announced as certainty OF the
near future based upon a public an
nouncement made and telegraphed
over the country by the Associated
Press under a Vancouver, B. c., date
line with railroad official sanction.
While the announcement carries en-
authentic and positive promise FOR the
building of the road next year, there
Is every reason to expect that the
speeding up of construction on the big
irrigation system just across the line,
and at the very door Of Oroville,
which this road is to aid in develop
ing, work of construction will in all
probability be commenced this year
to be completed early in 1921.
Nothing has taken place since the
construction of the Great Northern
through the valley and the installa-
ton of the irrigation system which in
sures greater benefit to Oroville than
the building of this branch line link
ing this place with Penticton, one of
the most flourishing young cities in
British Columbia, and putting the
town in direct connection with that
great transcontinental railroad sys-
tenn, the Canadian Pacific. 1t provides
the last spoke in the radiating rail-
roads that makes Oroville a railroad
center, giving the town direct outlets
to the four points of the compass. Few
of our people realize what a momen-
tous enterprise this is to be as a con-
tributary influence upon the future of
Oroville, and realization of a great
hope that seemed for distant only two
years ago. AS the residents along the
border know the British Columbia
government is, reclaiming 22,00O acres
OF as rich land as can be found In the
continent, in the Okanogan valley, the
southern boundary of which is in
sight of the Oroville townsite. Work
of putting in the irrigation system has
progressed so far that at least one or
two large units in the district will be

cient to assure the pubic that the
dance will be one that NO lover of the
pastime can afford to miss, and we
feel satisfied that one Of the largest
crowds that has ever gathered in the
hall will be present. The purpose of
this dance is to raise funds for books
and also to provide money for keeping
open the library to the public, which
certainly would be appreciated as the
library now has been closed to the
public for many months.
