NATIONAL fiVARD GETS TRACT OF LAND A lease and an option was secuved by the national guard of the state to day on 100 acres of land adjoining the present tract of land owned by the organization in Clackamas coun ty, and as soon as possible the mat ter will be taken up with the federal military department, and the re Quest be made that the government purchase the land for the national guard. The land Is to be used as a rifle range and as headquarters for the guard to assemble at during times of war.

THE "TOYMAKERS" DREW A CROWDED HOUSE "The Toymakers'' drew a crowded house last night, and the number of little folks attending was unusually large. To them the event will be a memorable o- e, for the toy features were splendid, and were enjoyed by the older folks, too. The little Chink and the Japanese doll, both Mr. Hartman's children, and the lat ter not over four years old, were "catchy" and the entire audience took them into their hearts, especial ly the little "Jap." The songs were not of the "tak ing" kind, and the singing was as good as the songs. Oliver Lenoir has a voice like a fog horn, and the male chorus was fairly good. The minuet was beautifully costumed and danced and Miss "Muggins" Daviee was a most charming doll bride, so charm ing that it is sad to think of her as Veing married to the man who got her, for he Is certainly "a bad ac tor.'

The big gest sensation of either of the Wap pensteln trials was sprung a few minutes before noou today, when Will H. Morris, Wappenstein's chief counsel, accused Judge Ronald of In timidating T. J.

This morning Long, who was called by the state, failed to remember this. Judge Ronald asked Long what caused him to go to Tupper and say that Wappensteln sent him, and Long again failed to answer. Judge Ronald then excused the jury and said to Long: 'The court will take a recess until 1:30. By that time you can refresh your memory. We want the truth. I don't want any evidence .concealed." Morris here made his objection "The manner of the court in talking to this witness Is an Intimidation " he said. "I will stand by what I said, Judge Ronald replied. "This court will see that the truth Is told even If the state or the defense must cross examine its own witnesses." Judge Ronald had been ruling more favorably for the defense than Judge M;i In throughout the entire trial, and this was the first real clash between the command defendant's counsel.

Volleys of shots were heard In Cow Creek can yon this morning by passengers of the southbound Southern Pacific train which arrived here this forenoon from Portland. In the canyon are three posses trail ing the bandits who held up the Ore gon express Wednesday night and robbed the registered mail. As the country is rough and the only means of communication is by courier. It has not been ascertained whether a fight between the fugitives and a posse occurred. The bloodhounds, that lost the robbers' trail at Cow Creok siding last night, were started here today in an effort to find the trail of the des peradoes in this vicinity. It is be lieved by many that they boarded a freight at the siding and rode as far as Goldedale ta throw the hounds off their trail. The bloodhounds were worked on both sides of the tracks, but were un able to find any scent. The large reward, which Is offered by the government and Southern Pa cific, is having an effect in augment ing the number of men In the posse. Many experienced woodsmen and mountaineers have joined In the chase, and practically all of Jose phine, Douglas, Jackson and Coos counties are policed by them. With the failure of .the dogs to find the trail, the authorities frank ly admit that they are without clews, and are trusting to luck to run across evidence that might had to the ultimate capture of the ban dits. LOOTST THE DEATH OF FATHER SUSPICION GROWS THAT RUM BALL'S DEATH MAY NOT HAVE BEEN DUE TO NATURAL CAUSES, LATEST PHASE IN OR OVILLE HORROR. UNITED TRESS LEASED WIRE. Oroville, Cal., June 30. Through unreadiness on the part of both the prosecution and defense, the prelim inary hearing of charges against Mrs. Emma Rumball and her brother, Archie Lewis, for the alleged killing of the woman's stepdaughter, 13-year-old Helen Rumball here, today was postponed and probably will be held July 10. After a severe sweating . of both prisoners by the authorities the Im pression Is growing here today that Mrs. Rumball broke the girl's neck with a Jerk of the rope with which she had tethered the child to a rafter In the superheated attic of their home. For two hours the woman was questioned and when taken back to her cell completely collapsed.

Both are kept in separate cells and are allowed to hold no communlca- tlon with each other. Feeling here is high and a careful guard is being kept over both prisoners. Attorneys for Mrs. Rumball and Lewis will allow no one to see them. The lawyers plan to defend the wo man with the contention that' her punishment of the girl, severe as it was, was no more than the child de served, and that her death was due entirely to misadventure. They be lieve they can convince the Jury of this. It Is probable that no real at tempt, will be made to clear the pris oners at the preliminary hearing but that the full evidence of the child's waywardness will be reserved to combat conviction on the expected trial for murder. '''" ji,r. Suspicion that Helen Rumball was deliberately killed through the' de sire of others to possess themselves' of her Interest In the estate left by her dead father, has bred the idea in the minds of the prosecution that it would be well to investigate his sud den demise last September. Rumball died of a quick Illness soon after Lewis arrived, from North Dakota to live on the Rumball place.
