The second affidavit was given by a
man 40 years Of age employed for four
years in the county as minor. He
states that he did not know either
Hatfield or Chambers. Hatfield fell
at his feet when he was shot. He saw

TIE third affidavit was made by a
man 25 years Of age, married, and has

anything.

of the detectives pull out a hand full
of cartridges to load his gun and some
of them fell down the steps towards

Stock Building Hearse-

II. c. Stock is building a new
hearse to take the place of the one
which he is now using. The latter
is considered to be unnecessarily
large, weighing over two tons, and
says, to accommodate some portly
individuals who have pers!stently re-
fused to shuttle off this mortal coil.
The old hearse is carried on an auto
which has to be cranked by hand,
a feature which does not appeal to
the proprietor.
The new hearse will be transport
ed by a new self-starting Overland.
which was purchased of the Over
land Marcy company and brought
down from Portland Saturday by E..
w. Hughes. Mr.. Stock is laying the
foundation for the coffin house,
which is the one which was formerly
used upon a horse-drawn vehicle
The new hearse will weigh only
about $500 pounds. Now is the
time to die.

ORCHARD HEATING TEST

The orchard heating demonstra-

Scheu smokeless heater was a mar
vel to all who witnessed the show
ing, Twelve heaters we're placed on
almost an acre Of land, and the diff

two rows of heaters was very pro-
nOunced. The heaters were placed
six In a row and about seventy-five
feet between the two rows. The tenn
perature in the center of the heated
area was four degrees warmer than
the outside area. To my mind this
was marvellous showing due to the
fact that such small area was be-
ing heated. One reading taken three
feet from the heater showed tenn
perature of rs degrees. These heat
ers are practically smokeless and de-
serve the careful consideration of
the orchardists.
