Tne most serious feature of the sit T.

beating marketmen. They have had
public sympathy and the police have
been very mild in their attempts to
control these demonstrations.

cave that has been followed ou'
OF the rock in pot hole about 9
mile from the river near Symrna,
and thus uncovered the cache Of
hidden articles. That reminded US
Of Mrs. Turtle, who has not been
| in the vicinity for six years.
I'VE talked with cowboys who
had acted as guides for her, also
with Mrs. Sarah Truax, who for
merIy lived near by but has moved
to- Ellensburg. also other neigh
bors who remembered parts Of her
story. This convinced me that
there must be something to the
tradition, and SO have spent some
time digging around in the Yicin-
ity TO see If l could discover the
buried gold also.
Il tried to find the names Of
the people who came here every
summer for six or eight years look
Ing for the buried gold, thinking
some Of them might be able to find
the gold If tIey had the location
Of the saddles to start with. but
the hotel where they formerly
stopped had been burned up and
with 1t the register containing
their names. / finally found some
one who knew Mrs. Turtles name
and address, ana went to Salem,
where shew as supposed to have
lived. There found that she had |
moved and no one knew what had |
become Of her. But / did find an
old man named Jacobson, at the
county poor farm who had once
loaned her $1,000 to finance an ex-
pedition in search of the treasure.
Il also found that the loss of the
gold had been reported to the Uni
ted States mint at San Francisco
and that the branch mint at Seat
tie has such record. This was
done in order to trace the gold in
case some one found 1t and took it
TO the mint. No one has ever done
50, and thereforo I am confident
that the gold still reposes in the
deer skin sacks where 1t was hid
den As years ago.
"The cowboy who guided Mrs.
Turtle on her last trip says that
she went to a point among the
rocks Just above the cave where we
found the saddles and said that
this semed to her to be the spot
where her father had stood when
ooking about for a safe hiding
place for the gold. They dug

Salem Bride Of
Few Days Hurt
In Auto Crash

Mrs. E. L. Woods, of this city
was severely cut and bruised and
narrowly escaped death in an au-
tomobile accident about four miles
from Hermiston on the evening of
September %, according to word
received by The Capital Journal
today from Mrs. B. M. Woods,
mother Of the injured woman's S
husband, who left Salem as soon as
she was informed of the accident.
The accident occurred just after
dark when Mr.. Woods drew his
car up on the side of the road to
repair tire. Two other cars, NOV
ing in opposite directions met
where the Woods car was parked.
One of them, a Ford truck, report
ed to have had but one light burn
ing, crashed into the standing car,
from the rear.
Mrs. Woods was holding onto a
trunk on the back of the car and
was caught between the two ma
chimes and dragged several feet.
Mrs. Woods was severely hurt
about the back and hips and had
many bruises and cuts over her
body. Her clothes were torns to
rags.

Flexible Fare
Replaces Nickel
On Trolley Lines

Atlantic City, N. j., Oct. 4.
P. H. Gadsden, Of Philadelphia
president of the American Elec-
trio Railway Association, declared
today at the opening of the or
ganization's annual convention
that most lines had shaken off
"the fiye-cent fare fetish"
Replacing it, he said, was the
flexible fare, which goes up or
down with operating costs. He
asserted that establishment with
in the last few years by courts
and regulatory bodies of the prtn-
ciple that traction companies
could not be forced to operate at
a loss had provided secure
for the future finan-
cling of the industry.
Despite outstanding suspensions
of lines, Mr.. Gadsden continued,
the industry's general condition
was encouraging.
"An analysis of the operations
Of a group of rs city and inter-
urban roads," he said, "shows that /
In the six months ending June
30, the operating revenue was
$146,100,956 as compared with
for the same period
in 1920.
"In other words, during the
last six months, when business
in this country has been
almost PROSTATE, the electric rail-
ways show an actual increase in
revenue of over three percent as
with the same six
months of 1920. Only four or
i've electric railways have ceased

Mrs. Turtle would spend from
three to six weeks each year in
looking for the gold, but without
ever finding anything to encour~
age her to believe she was on the
right track.
Il feel sure, however, that II
we can find Mrs. Turtle, and take
her to the cave where we found
the saddles, she will remember
where the gold is buried. She used
to say to her guides that If she
could find the place where her
father hid the saddles she could
walk right to the hiding place Of
the gold"

. Ground Must Be Hollow.

In Lassen county, California. is a
spot called Dry lake. which is in reali-
ty almost an arid plain, with some
alkali scattered here and there over
it, and it's area is two and half by
four miles. On one side are the Pit
River mountains and on another are
big pine woods, while to the west are
the famous lava beds, in which the
Indians hid during that last great Cal
ifornia struggle with the savages. A
winding road leads up from the val
ley below into the curious basin.
If a horse walks on this road any
where, even two or three miles out
side the border of the Dry lake, he
can be heard for many miles up in the
interior. The ground all about there
sends forth hollow sound. Reverbera-
tons can be heard everywhere. A foot
fall may be heard like sound in
great cavern.

RELIGION of Good Citizenship.

''In China there existed in the past,
and there are evidences that it is COM
ing to life again, the religion of good
citizenship" says writer in Asia
Magazine. THAT is to say, the Chi
nese theory is that man does not
need to feel the need of physical force
to protect himself; he has seldom the
need even to call in and use the physi-
cal force of the policeman-of the state
to protect him. A man in China is
supposed to be protected by the sense
of justice of his neighbor; he is pro-
tected by the readiness of his fellow
men to obey the sense of moral obliga-
ton. The ideal of Chinese civilization,
therefore, is that man can not feel
the need of using physical force to
protect himself because he is sure that
right and justice is recognized by all
his neighbors as a force higher than
physical force, and that moral Obliga-
ton as recognized by everybody is
something that must be Obeyed."

IRELAND UNDER ALIEN RULE
Power of the Danes Broken by Brian
Boru in 1O14-Normans Became
AmaIgamated.

About 800 A. D., the pagan hosts
of the Mortimer and Danes fell on
Ireland with fierce destruction. After
a century of destruction, Irish kings
led their people in succession of
wars, for the deliverance of their
country, and Brian Borama, or Brian
Boru (926-1O14), king of Munster, by
his great victory in the battle Of Clon-
tart, on April %, 1914, finally broke the
power of the Danes in Ireland. In
III Ireland was invaded by the Nor
mans from England, in the time of
Henry II, and it's conquest began. 'In
Ireland" to quote the words of Prof
Edward A. Freeman 1823-1S92) "the
Norman was more purely conqueror
than anywhere else, but in Ireland his
power of adaptation caused him to
sink in way in which he sank no.

Reading and "Skimminc"

1t is said that Macaulay could read
faster than most men could skim and
skim faster than they could skip. No
doubt, but then he could laugh heart
lily at a Greek comedy. The whole
thing is largely a matter of habit and
training; a man can accustom himself
to read steadily. On the other hand,
the habit of skimming is one of the
most perilous to careful thinking {;
once formed, it is very difficult to
shake off, and the man that has all
lowed himself to slip into the easy
primrose path of skimming, finds that
he has missed one good thing after
another.
