MYSTERY SURROUNDS
III. j. JACKSON CHECKS
Checks TOtaling $4,000, Mailed by
Pullman State Bank to II. j.
Jackson, Found in Boys
Possession

The following story concerning
two checks in sums of $4,000 each
which were mailed by the Pullman
State bank to II. j. Jackson, at Port
land, Ore, was published in yester-
days Spokesman-Revi and will be
of interest to Pullman people. Mr..
Jackson was pioneer druggist of
this city, later acquiring extensive
farm holdings.
Mystery yesterday entered into
the alleged light fingered operations
of the 13-year-old half-witted boy
among the congregation at the old
Vincent church Tuesday evening
while the Rev. Mr. Lake prayed.
The boy when caught Tuesday night
while trying to buy ticket to Port
land, Ore, with 50, had a $4,000
cashiers and $4,000 personal check
in his possession which he said he
had taken from some ones pocket in
the church The checks were on the
Pullman State bank and made out
to and signed by H. J. Jackson re-
spectively.
j. N. Scott, vice president of the
I ullLndD DdHh, arrived Ill lOWn yes
terday in response to a telegram from
the police.
Il can not understand how the boy
came in possession of the checks" he
told Detectives Edwards and Thomp-
son. The checks were mailed by
the bank on November 81 to Mr..
Jackson at his home in Portland. He
has never received them. He is a
wealthy retired rancher with large
holdings in the Palouse country"
To-day the boy claims to have TAX
en- the letter in which he found the
checks from the mail in a Fifth ave-
nue. apartment house where he
lives" Detective Edwards said last
night.
IF the boy got the checks from
the apartment house, how could the
letter containing the checks have so
miscarried? If his first story is true,
that he picked it from the pockets of
a person kneeling in the church dur
ing prayer by the Rev. Mr.. Lake,
who was this person and how did he
come by the checks?"

W. D. W. Is HUNTING
FOR BIG TURKEYS
National Feast Birds Scarce in This
LOcality-Frank Wilson Gets
1112 Founder From Camp

The local camp of the Woodmen
OF the World ran a bluff" and is
now having hard time to deliver
the goods, owing to the scarcity of
turkeys in this locality. The camp
undertook to supply its active work
ers with turkeys for Christmas and
row finds that such birds are few
and far between in this locality and
unless the markets come to the aid
of the camp managers there will
probably be some annoying explana-
tons to make. After looking the
country over carefully the camp
managers found one lone turkey
12 pounds-and grabbed it at
once to present as proof of their
good intentions. When this bird
was put before the meeting Wednes-
day evening Neighbor Frank Wilson
romped away with it, stopping at the
door long enough to tell the rest of
the camp that he would bring in a
couple of great big roosters to be
used as consolation prizes next week.
The regular meeting of the Wood
men Wednesday evening was well
attended and much interest shown
if the work mapped out for the near
future. Arthur Thompson put his
new degree team on exhibition and
initiated two new members. Two
applications were received and Dis
trict Manager Dirks reported that
prospects were good for very sue
cossful campaign in this locality.
Tentative arrangements were dis
cussed for a big social session on the
evening of December %, there being
all important business session next
Wednesday evening. The managers
were instructed to prepare for an
other drawing next week and this,
with the addition of Neighbor Will
sons offering, should prove very
interesting adjunct to the meeting.

ONLY TEN DOLLARS
WILL SAVE A CHILD
Pullman People Will Be Asked to
Save 22O Little Ones Who Are
Starving to Death

In the near East and central En-
rope hundreds of thousands of chill
dren are threatened with starvation.
So serious is the situation that the
government of the United States has
made arrangements to conduct a
drive to raise funds to save these lit
tie ones. Herbert Hoover will super
wise the distribution of the money.
It is estimated that $40 will sustain
each of these children for year.
j. N. Emerson has been appointed
to organize and supervise the drive
III Whitman county. He has divided
the county into five districts with the
following chairmen: F. NJ. Slagle of
Pullman; F. j. Wilmer of Rosalia;
Il. S. Knowlton of La Crosse; r. f.
Bigelow of Colfax; W. R. Heglar of
St. John.
Pullman is asked to care for 220
of these starving children and the
quotas allotted to the other towns in
this district are: Albion, 30 children /;
Cotton, % children; Uniontown. 35
children; Johnson, Is children.
The campaign will start next Sun
day, December 10, and continue for
two weeks. During the first week
voluntary subscriptions will be re-
ceiyed and during the second week a
canvass will be made
The cause is a worthy one and the
need is desperate. The pitiful con-
ditiOn of these innocent little ones
should appeal powerfully to the sym
pathies OF both old and young. To be
able to save the life OF child is q
great privilege, which should recon-
ellie the people to respond to one
more drive.
