KRNKST JKNKINS. It will be remembered that Mr Jenkins is the aged prospector who was found by Deputy Sheriff RafTei in a very precarious condition, brought on through lack of proper nourishment, in a small tent erect ed by himself near Melrose some time ago. The man undoubtedly would have died of hunger and ex posure had he not been discovered and brought io this city where medical attention was given. He was first taken to the county jail and has since been moved lo the county poor farm. Mrs. T. l.

BIG COYOTE KILLED AFTER LONG CHASE Following a long chase t his morning, in which J. H. Shor'. 4 Claud Short and IC.

Sloch- men in the vicinity ot the Slu't ranch have lost a good many sheep and it is believed tM.-i par- licular coyote has been chh:lv responsible for the depreila- lions.

A not her peculiarity ol the am- mal is t hat alio ut in" iiall oi its tail was pure w hite. 't is be- lieved Dial this is not .i eomiuou coyote, but probably a cross between a coyote and a wolf.

YOUR SUPPORT NEEDED Day of Rejoicing When the Sym pathetic Ml History of the "V" Take the 1'luce of Turkish Cruelties. (Hy .1. 10. McClliilock) The llrillsh army la driving tho Turk out of the Holy Land, and be fore long the Y. M. C. A. will be able tt announce that they have es tablished a tent inside the Holy City of Jerusalem, and- when once th-J red trtanble has been erected iu that historic old city, it will never come down. What a day of rejoicing. It will he when tender nilniidiy and justice will take the place of cruelty und oppression; a lime when Pales tine will be made to blossom and produce abundant harvests once more, and her scattered millions re united iu their home land. Some one has said that the army Y. M. C. A. will do more towards bringing this cruel war to a speedy end than all the munitions of armies, und all (hey are asking for nt this time is a fund of $::;, 01)0, (hMI, with which to extend (heir labors, both nt heme and overseas. This Is a small amount as compared with over $ I 00,000,000 spent dally In death dealing muni tions of war. Yet we find people right In Roseburg who refuse to sup port this movement, men who could well afford to subscribe hundreds of dollars, absolutely refusing to give one dollar. The reason of this Is that all they think of Ih SKLF, and they cannot see eight per cent Inter est coming back every six months. No doubt such Individuals e.Uslcd In lOuropp before the war commenced, but a few German shells soon '-hanged their program, and they were made to realize Hie worthlcssutsu at great property interests. This is no time for selfishness, the whole world is looking towards America lor reliel, and we must be. and will be eipial to the occasion.
