HAS GOOD GOLD PROSPECT Man Vlt Dropped Fortune to latten and Was Put on Feet Again by tlie Moores Racked by Chicago Men in Mining Venture. BAKER CITY. July 4. (Special.) Sidney C. Love, millionaire stock broker and member of the New York Stock Exchange, is now in this vicinity seeking to recoup the fortune which he lost a few years ago when he "mixed" with Patten, the wheat king, and dropped tSOO.000 in one deal. He was at one time worth several millions and carried on extensive operations on the New York Exchange, and also had branch offices in Chicago. He was . looked npon a5 a coming financier. After he dropped some money to Patten he became involved in other financial difficulties' and was finally forced to the wall with his liabilities running $2,300,000 above his assets. ' But such has been his record in finan cial transactions and so strong was his personality that the Moores of the Rock Island lines paid off his debts and he was enabled to start again with out any pressing obligations. He is . only about 35 years old, and will un doubtedly come to the front again. Takes Up Bond on Sunrise. Love came West last "Winter and at Seattle met W. L. Vinson, of Baker City, a mine operator and promoter, who induced Mr. Love to come to this . city and inspect the Sunrise mine near Unity Creek on Bull Run Creek. Mr. Love invested about $5000 in the prop erty and since February, when he ar rived here, he has been at the mine. On June Mr. Vinson failed to meet the payments on the property, on which he had taken a bond and lease, and Mr. Love then made arrangements with the owners to take over the mine and run it himself. He is now living at the mine and very seldom comes to Bak.r City. The Sunrise mine 1st only a. prospect, but indications are that it will develop into a good gold-producer, as the surface showings are of tne very best. A tunnel has been driven into the mountain about 120 feet and several winzes sunk. Mr. Love expects to stay with the mine until it is placed on a paying basis. The district is rather new and no big properties have been developed. Gold has been found on the surface in many places and it is the general be lief, which is being borne out at Mr. Ixve's property, that the values will increase with depth. Wealthy Men Back Him. ,' Mr. Love has spent several days in Baker at various times and has made many warm friends here. He is a man of pleasing- appearance and of charm ing personality. It is understood that bis friends include many big financiers in the East. In his present operations he Is said to be backed by Arthur Meek er, ot Armour & Co. He has never stated here", who., is . furnishing the money. . . When 21 years of age. Mr. Love was given $20,000 by his mother, Margaret C. Love, who is' a wealthy resident of Chicago. He immediately went to New York city and entered the stock brokerage business, and was so successful that by the t'me he was 30 years old he was worth $2,000,000. His mother is still a wealthy woman. Mrs. .Love now resides in England, where she owns a beautiful country villa, and, Mr. Love had just returned to this country when he came West and en tered into the-mining business. His wife is the owner of the richest lead zinc mine in the United States, the Oanby, in Missouri. Mr. Love at one time owned one of the finest racing stables in America. For several years his horses held the turf records of this country. ENGINEER IS IN KLAMATH S. P. Iiocator Keturns and Causes Interest in Alturas Line. KLAMATH FALLS, Or., July 4. (Special.) B. F. Knowlton, chief engi neer for the Southern Pacific Railroad, who ran the permanent survey for the line from this city to Alturas, in Cali fornia, a year ago, is back but his pur pose is shrouded in mystery and is causing much speculation. Mr. Knowlton will not say what his mission is further than that he is here to lay in supplies for his engineering crews. Where these crews are now or where they are going to work would not be divulged and the only theory which seems plausible is that he is go ing to run some new surveys, possibly in connection with the proposed line from here to Merrill, on the original survey of Alturas. Along part of this line some of the farmers are said to be attempting to get more for their prop erty for a right of way than the rail road company will pay and it is thought Knowlton will run a new line down through the valley to Merrill from Klamath Falls to evade crossing these properties. This is, however, only a matter of conjecture. POSTOFFICE BURNED DOWN Defective Flue, - Xot Firecrackers, Causes Fire at Summit. SUMMIT. Or., "July 4. (Special.) The Postoffice at Summit burned at 2 o'clock this afternoon in the midst of a Fourth of July celebration here. The Postoffica was situated in the front of the resi dence of Charles Abel, Mrs. Abel beinx postmistress. The entire building was destroyed, but all the mail, stamps and office supplies as well as most of tho furniture of the dwelling were carried out by the big crowd of people from all parts of the surrounding country who were here attending the celebration. Though the fire began during the cele bration it was not due to firecrackere or to the celebration In any way, but started in the roof apparently from a de fective flue. The loss is $1500, partially covered by insurance. The Summit tele phone was in the burned building and Summit is without telephone communica tion tonight except through nearby farm bouses into Blodgett station. PalotLse Assault Becomes Murder.

CHICAGO VICTIM WRITES Supply House Tells- of Loss of $2 00 on One of Schemes of Klamath Telephone Company Organizer. Fugitive Heard From. KLAMATH FALLS, July 4. (Special.) Previous operations by George L. Price, the Oregon Independent Telephone Com pany promoter who was arrested in this ; city on a charge of floating fictitious checks in San Francisco and who escaped from a dectective, are related in a letter received in this city from the Monarch Telephone Supply Company, of Chicago, and in which surprise is expressed that Price had the nerve to promote another company in the United States. - The letter, which was sent to C. P. Gregory, secretary of the Oregon com pany, states that the Monarch company had first -been introduced to Price when he got in its debt for about $200 a few years ago on a scheme out of which the company received in return only a "little blue sky." Later, the letter stated, an order for telephone supplies came from the Argen tine Republic and when the company in vestigated to see if the enterprise was responsible, George L. Price was found at the head of this deal. Soon after that another order came from Mexico for sup plies and. upon investigation George L. Price was again found at the head of a company promoted by himself. None of these orders was honored, but before the Monarch people could, get hold of Price he had flitted to Klamath Falls, where he started the same kind of a deal and through the secretary began negoti ating Xor supplies from the same tele phone supply company. The strange part of this, whole pro ceeding is that Price courted investiga tion by working at every place under the same name. Even at Klamath Falls. Just across the California line from San Fran cisco, he used the same name as he did on his alleged fictitious checks in San Francisco, not attempting in the least to disguise his handwriting. A letter has also been received here by a former friend. This letter was mailed on the train in the vicinity of Redding on Tuesday, June 29, which in dicates that Price was still In that part of the country at that time, although he made his getaway em the Saturday night before. Price wanted his friejfd to tell him what the local newspapers were saying about his case, but neglected to give any address through which he could be reached personally, but asked that the information be sent to a friend. Price said he expected to "fight the California case" at a "safe distance, as discretion was sometimes the better part of valor." He added that the case in California was being pushed against Jiim by private in dividuals and that the officers in San Francisco were not trying to force the issue. Hatchery Changes Managers. ELGIN. Or.. July 4. (Special.) The state fish hatchery at Miriam is now under the management of Superintend ent Sol Wheeler, succeeding C. ' A. White, of Portland.

Dr. Williams' Pink Pills Prored to B Just the Tonic to Restore Her to Health, Strength and Happiness. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have made so many remarkable cures in serious cases that people are liable to overlook their value as a tonic for - the blood and nerves in debility and general run-down condi tions. That such conditions are the cause of much misery and unhappiness is fully known to those who suffer from them andthe need of curing them is aa vital as is relief from diseases with higher sounding names. "We commend the fol lowing statement to. those who suffer from any form of debility resulting from Weak, thin blood or shattered nerves. Mrs. Mary H. Taft, of No. 314 How ard street, Petaluma, Cal. , has found Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to be the best tonic that she has ever used. She says : "About fifteen years ago, when living Sn Toronto, Canada, I became generally run down and felt miserable for years. 1 was tired all of the time and didn't want to work or do anything at all. My appetite was not very good and I was thin and pale. I suffered from sick head aches a great deal and was nervous. "I. was treated by a doctor for some time and tried several tonics but without help. A friend recommended Dr. Wil liams' Pink Pills to me and I took several boxes. I soon began to feel much better, my appetite came back and the benefit continued until I was cured. I have taken Dr. Williams' Pink Pills a number of times since as I think they are about the best tonic one can take." The tonic action of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills is direct because they make new blood which carries health and strength to every part of the body. This pure, new blood tones up the weak stomach, strengthens the exhausted nerves and enables every part of .the body to per form its work.
