' PHONE MAIN 3771 TOLEN HORSE IS RECOVERED TOO LATE SAYS EGGS SPREAD Not That the Animal Was Injured, But It Was. Taken While Being Returned to Its Owner. GOLD HILL, April 16. The News today says: Arrested for stealing the horse he was riding, when the animal "belonged to his father, to whom he was taking it, was the unique experience of a young man from Myrtle Creek, near Roseburg, in a little comedy of er rors which was enacted in Gold Hill. Marshal Hammersly had received no tico from Sheriff Fen ton of Doug- . las county to arrest and hold a young man, smooth-shaven, height five feet, weieht 135 pounds, riding a buckskin horse weighing 900 pounds, with a kidney sore, light colored saddle with oue modern stirrup pin. Wednesday morning a horse and mnn answering both de scriptions exactly went through town at a gallop. The marshal caught a glimpse of them. He saddled one of Darling & Hodges' horses and over took the stranger just beyond the Rock Point bridge. The man at once admitted that he was riding tho stolen horse, but said that lie was P. B. Weaver, the son of the owner, was on his way bnck t& Myrtle Creek, where the horse had been stolen, and that the horscthief had been arrested nt Jacksonville by the deputy sheriff of Douglas county. However, he had no identification papers, so ho came into town with the marshal to await corroboration of his statement. A wire to Sheriff Fenton at Hoseburg cleared things up by bringing a reply saying that the thief had been arrested at Jack sonville and verifying the balance of tho stranger's story. After a few hours' delay, which he took good- nuturedly, realizing that he tallied with the description of the horse- thief, Mr. Weaver was again on his way. State Veterinary Files Report Stat ing That the White Plague Is Spread by Diseased Eggs. PORTLAND, Or., April 17. Eggs laid by tubercular hens serve as a medium to spread tuberculosis, ac cording to W. H. Lytic, state veterr inary, whose report has just been filed with Dr. Calvin White, secretnry of tho state board of health. This discovery is considered to be ono of much importance and has opened up a new field of danger from the whito plague. Dr. Lytle assures the people, however, that if eggs are well cooked there can be but little danger of contracting disease from eating them. Tho report says: "Tuberculosis in fowls has beeu discovered in some four centers throughout the state. These being in widely separated districts, we are at a loss to account for the introduc tion of this disease, unless it be from human or other animal source. "Generally the disease has been found to be closely associated with cases of human tuberculosis, and in the ono case where this was not found to be the case, the infected chicken had been recently purchnsed from a poultry farm, where it was impossible to trace possible means of infection." WILL PROTECT TRACKS WITH CONCRETE SHEDS Great Northern Making Preparations to Do Away With Danger of Slides Like That at Wellington. OLYMPIA. Wash.. April 10. The Great Northern railway plans to protect its lino through the Cascade mountains with snow sheds built of concrete, according to information brought to this city today by Assistant- Attornoy-Genernl Tanner, who has been on a tour of the state with members of the state railway commission.
