LANDSOPENED
FOR VETERANS
Secretary Lane Announces
Ex-Soldiers Will Have
First Opportunity.

Veterans of the world War will
be given the first opportunity to set
tie in the homestead entry of over
$4,000 acres of land in Western
Oregon.
Secretary of the Interior Lane
yesterday ordered the opening Of
the land. which was formerly em-
braced in the oregon and Califor-
mia railroad grant. The territory
is mostly within the Roseburg Dis
trict. Opening of the land was de-
ferred, pending the enactment of
legislation by Congress granting a
preference right of entry to SOL
diers, sailors. and Marines of the
late war. While all of the land is
classed as agricultural there are
considerable areas which are not
adapted to cultivation.
The World War veterans will have
a preference right of sixty days
within which to make homestead
entry. The period of the preference
right begins May 10 and ends
June s.
One hundred and sixty-five thou
sand acres in the former Cheyenne

eventually married in the name Of
Wilson "a copy of the marriage cer-
tificate was in the bravery, had been
a typical Spaniard of singular beauty
and fascination, tho Of no sdistin-
guished birth.
Apparently his grace had regretted
his hasty alliance, for two years after
his succession to the title, he had
married the third daughter of the
Earl of Westchester without--so far
as the evidence in Poltavo's possess
sion showed-having~ gone thru the
lorna ltyioreefl THMTHMTHMTHM
formality Of releasing himself from
his previous union.
Here was II magnificent coup, the
most splendid that had ever come
into tho vision Of the blacltmailers,
for the Duke Of Ambury was one of
the richest men In England, a land
lord who owned half London and had
estates in< almost every county. If
over there was IA victim who was In
a position to be handsomely bled, here
was one.
The Spanish wife was now dead,
Duke of Ambury before the death,
and the whole question of succession
was affected by the threatened dis
closure. All the facts of the case
were in Poltavo's possession; they
were written in this curiously unedu-
Gated hand which filled the pages of
the letters now spread upon the table
in front of him. The marriage GER
tificate had also been supplied, and
a copy of the death certificate had
also been obligingly extracted by q
peccant servant, and matters were
now SO far advanced that Poltavo had
received. thru the Agony column Of
the Times, u reply to the demand he
had sent to his victim.
That reply had been very favor
able; there had been no suggestion of
lawyers; no hint of any intervention
on the part of the police. Ambury
was willing to be bled, willing indeed.
so the agony advertisement indicated
to Poltavo, to make any financial
sacrifice in order to save the honor of
his house.
X It was only a question OF terms
now. Poltavo had decided upon fifty
thousand pounds. That sum would
be sufficient to enable him to clear
out of England and to enjoy life as
best he loved 1t, without the necessity
for taking any further risks. With
Doris Gray removed from his hands,
with the approval of society already
palling upon him, he thirsted for new
| fialdo apd now n 6yeDtrres srh, ffffy
thousand seemed now within his
grasp. He should. by his agreement
with Harrington, hand two-thirds of
| that sum to his. employer, but even
the possibility of doing this never
/ for one moment occurred to him.
