Horse Decides Case.
Justice of the Peace W. Q. Brown,
on Monday sat on the case of Head
vs. Meller, at Riddle. '
It appears that Professor Head
purchased a horBe from Mr. Meller,
0 which the Professor claimed did not
behave as Mr. Meller represented it
would. In fact the Professor was of
the opinion that he had gotten bit
with a balky horse. ,The argument
of Professor Head's counsel, Mr. G.
W. Riddle, was to prove, and of Mr.
Mellers' counsel, B. F. Nichols, to
disprove, that the horse was balky.
ha-Both eounsel made strong pleas, so
strong indeed that Justice urowu io
sorted to a rather unique way of
deciding the matter. He decreed
that the horse In question be hitched
with another to a wagon, driven out
to the woods and made to do its part
toward bringing home a couple of
gyirds of wood In order to test its
conduct. The result was the Professor
was obliged to stay by hi bargain.

OREGON AT SEATTLE.
SEATTLE, July 23. (Special cor-
! respondence of Medford Tribune)
The mural decoration o( the ponder-
lous glass-covered dome of the Ore-

"trlMly Oregon products, and un
usually versatile ai tnat, illustrates

'mounts the center of the building.
Within the brilliantly-lighted enelo
sure Is a picture story that many peo
ple come to see exclusively. The kev
of the continuous panorama around
the dome is the state seal, with its
suggestive motto of absolute Inde
pendence, "She flies with her own
wings." It would bo difficult to im
agine what more striking method
could have been devised for decorat
ing the crown of the beautiful state
building to arrest attention and di
rect the thoughtful to the immensity
of the grain growing sections, the
variety of husbandry and the wealth
suggested by the production of cat
tle raising, fruit growing, logging,
mining, sheep raising, hop culture.
poultry farming, fish and game, dairy
ing, manufacturing and transporta
tion. To the observant eye the trans
portation situation in Oregon must
be striking as It is suggested by the
representation of a train running
alongside the Columbia gorge, laden
from the wheat fields of the Inland
Empire "or the water grade."
The panorama of Oregon Is fre
quently taken for oil-tones and the
mistake Is excusable. But, Instead or
canvasses, the picture Is a reality
made of a ton of seed grains and oats,
barley and wheat, in the shock, and
by the clever manipulation of an
artist, W. E. Benton, with much ted
ious work and many layers of them
being used, pearl barley, wheat, corn.
millet, poppy, epurrey, red pepper,
timothys, white clover, beans, ap
ples, prunes, hops, tufted1 wool nnd
grass were spread into such even
shades that the composite picture
looks like It had been painted.
The whole exhibit, including the
gigantic Oregon beaver, in prunes,
and the robust figure of an Oregon
sheep, standing 12 feet high, receives
much commendatory attention and
none more so than, the man from
home who feels that at last, after
several trials, Oregon has a fit build
ing and a proper exhibit to show it In
at a national exposition.

Special to the Evening Review.
PORTLAND, Or., July 24. As tho
culmination of a long series of fam
ily quarrels. Dr. It. A. Miles Col
lins, a prominent physician of this
city, was shut and killed In the base
ment of his home by IiIb wife early
today. Collins was 34 years uf ago
and hlB wife 1b 13 years older.
The couple were married a year
ago last March and spent their honey
moon in Honolulu. After their return
to Portland they qunrroled repeatedly
on account of nuother woman whom
Mrs. Collins claimed was trying to
alienate lier husband'B affection. Yes
terday they agreed (o separate, and
all household goods were packed
ready lor removal when the tragedy
occurred.
Mrs. Collins has confessed the
crime, but for the first few hours
after her nrrest she stoutly Insisted
thnt she was Innocent. "I may have
killed hi in without ronllzlng what I
was doing," she finally admitted. "I
had been taking medicine that mado
my hend mil." Further questioning
then cmised her to break down and
confess all.
"1 am guilty," Bho nionued; "now,
how long will It take to end this
misery?"
"Where was tho revolver?" jhe
was asked.
"Wo had two, nnd wo nlwnys kepi
one under tho pillow." wns the reply.
"How many limes did you fire?
"What a question," replied the
woman; "1 have told you that I am
guilly. Does It make any difference
how ninny shots I llred?'

were two bullet wounds In Collins'

CHASE OVER SANDHILLS.
Sheriff in Auto Pursues Raring Car
In (Hidden Tour.
JUI.ESBUltG, Colo., July 23.
There was a little ot the spice of life
in tho Uldden tour this afternoon,
when the Sheriff of Keith county,
Nebraska, thought the Jewel car, No.
7, was going too fast.
The sheriff hailed the driver to
stop, but the chauffeur had other
Ideas. The sheriff, being a man of
Ideas also, boarded a Locomobile,
and for 20 miles over the sandhills
of Nebraska there wns a race that
mndo the prnlrie dogs flee In terror.
At the end of the 20-mlle chase the
Jewel ear banged Into the rear of a
rival Gliddeiilto and the sheriff tri
umphed. Ho wns appeased, however,
when the character of the speeding
was mado known to him.
For more than 200 miles the tour
ists followed tho l'lutto river from
Kenrney to Julesburg. The roads
were above the average, but several
dead spots were encountered and sev
eral machines had to bo pulled out
by horse power.
