Her son is dead and has left an In surance policy in her favor and pay ment of the claim Is withheld pend ing the location of the woman. This morning Postmaster J. T. Brown received a letter from J. I. Partridge of Corydon, Iowa. The letter sets forth that Joseph Albert Pettitt, formerly of this vicinity, was killed in a runaway on his ranch, May 3. The young man died without regaining conseleusness. Among his effects an insurance policy In favor of his rnother was found, but the ad dress of the beneficiary was not giv en. Before the accident young Pettitt had ta'ked with his employer about William Me'.ners for whom he had worked while in Umatilla county. Ac cordingly Mr. Patridge asked Mr. Brown to inquire for friends and rel atives of the dead man. Mr. Meiners remembers Pettitt, who worked for h;m several years ago. However, he knows rfothtng as to the whereabouts of the rnother. Pt-tt tt is described as having been five feet nine Inches in height. weight 170 pounds, black hair and blue eyes. He was a member of the Eagles lodge at Colfax, Wash. He had a watch with the name of W. W Sherill. who is an officer in the Ea gles lodge at CoUax.

According to reports of officers of the board, great progress has been made during the last year in com pleting a permanent and official af filiation between the various pub licity organizations of California. State publicity, which had its origin in California and has been developed h-re to a gr'-ater extent than In any Mh r stale of the Cnlon. has been r duce.l to almost an exact science.

Irrigation by means of whirling sprinklers is to be carried out on an extensive scale In the quincy district in Orant county, Wash., upon a large tract of land a few miles south of the town of Win chester. The apparatus, specially cie s'gncd for the experiment, Is larger anil of greater capacity than the prinklers ordinarily used on city lawns. Water will be lifted from a deep well by a double action pump lriven by a gasoline engine. In making the foregoing announce ment at his headquarters in Spokane, Stephen O. Jayne. irr'gatlon Investi gator for the United States depart ment of agriculture, said that owing to the irregularity of the land and the .iniK' eh.ir.i. t. r .f the soil a large ex pense would be involved to properly grade It for Irrigation by ordinary methods, and, he added. It Is to avoid this outlay, as well as to secure a more "economical use of water than would be possible otherwise, that the experiment Is to be carried on. "The Irrigation branch of the de partment of agriculture Is conduct ing experiments throughout Wash ington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana and other states," Mr. Jayne continued, with a view of determining the practicability of the various methods and It is believed that the knowledge so gained will result In a material saving and Increased efficiency In the use of valuable water supplies. While Irrigation by the use of whirling sprinklers is not a new Idea having been successfully and profit ably practised In various places In connection principally with truck farming operations. It Is something of an Innovation to undertake the wa terlng of general field crops by this method. "Apple growers In ne vicinity of Chelan, Wash., are this season Install lng sprinkling systems also, and dur lng the summer the whlrlers will be going In many orchards. "Albert Selter, a successful or chard 1st of Moran Prairie, near Ppo kane, last year Installed such a sys tern nnd was greatly pleased with the results, also demonstrating to his sat Isfaetion the advantages of applying water in this way. A novel Idea wns to place a light dressing of straw lie neath the trees to prevent the sprink ling from beating the ground so as to compact nnd crust the surface. He has some old Jonathan apple trees which never produced fruit of market able size until last year, when by Ir rlgating them with sprinklers a very heavy yield was obtained, most of tho apples being larger than four-tier. Many people have passed along Court street today ana have noticed an old Indian of giant physical pro portions sitting In a chair In front of Major Lee Moorhouse's office, the stolid stoical expression on his large, heavy face never changing. There Is something about the aged red man, who has remained in that one spot almost the whole day, that compels tho passerby to take a second look, something that Instinctively speaks of a historic past. It Is well that the passerby wonders as to his Identity, for his career has been a notable one, beginning In the days when his people roamed over this country In undisputed possession of all they surveyed. He Is none other than Wa-win-ilp-llp. which In Engl'sh means Red Elk, and he Is one of the few survivors of tho battle of Walla Walla, one of the most famous engagements of the uprising of 1855. In this battle he was shot In the head and left on the battlefield for dead. but he recovered and lived to become a friend of the whlteman. In his own words, he "lay dead three days, then come to life." Although Red Elk owns land on the Umatilla reservation, he makes his home on the Nesnalem or Colvllle reservation In northern Washington Twice a year he makes the trip down here to collect his rents and then goes back to dream of the glories of the ast and to wait for his summons to the Happy Hunting Ground. He be. longs to the Cayuse tribe and has a brother. Eat-no-meat, on the local re serve.

With but a few weeks of school before the summer vacation rets In, the children of school age wish to work and are disappointed when they find that no permit can be Issued to them until after the schools close. Hundreds of children, during the next six weeks, will make application for vacation permits. They are granted to boys and girls over 14. They may work In factories, reatau ants, stores, etc.. Children of 11 or over may be granted permits to work n the fruit canneries, the dlscrimlna- lon being made because the work I ot continuous and Is less of a tax n the younger children. No permit required by law for children to work In gardens, hopfields and berry atches. This year honorary pupils of the lubllc schools will be granted vaca- lon permits before the closo of the school year, though they cannot be used until vacation begins. Aiilolsls form chili.

'OCAL CLES & EYEGLASSES WIFE DESERTION SETS CHILDREN TO WORK Wife desertion has become a pro nounced factor In the child labor problems in this city, the effect being to throw the burden of the family support on children too young to take heavy responsibilities, says the Port land Telegram. Many application from such children have been made during the last month to the secre tary of the commission. The new law provides that children of school age under 15 must attend school. This In many cases, works a seeming hard ship upon the deserted family, whlc could live on the few dollars a week earned by the older children.

When Congressman .J. .Hampton Moore was a reporter In Philadelphia he was assigned one night to go out and get a human interest story about woman who had died at the ago of eighty-eight, leaving a twin sister. with whom she had lived for fifty years, as sole survivor of an old fam ily. The house stood opposite a ceme tery at the outskirts of town, and Moore wished as ho pulled aside the his city ed- lle with his Ideas of human Interest stories. A woman friend of the aged sisters op ened the door and ushered J. Hamp ton Into the parlor, over In the corner of which rested the dend sister In her coffin. The neighbor seemed to feel It was up to her to entertain the reporter while waiting for the other sister to drag herself In for the Interview. By way of small talk the woman motion ed with her thumb In the direction of the coffin and remarked: "That's tho lady thnt died." "I suspected as much," replied Moore.
