Two "keynote" speeches were

General Luke Wright, of Tennessee,

In the wako of the mysterious ills-
appearance of a family from near
Wilbur two weeks ago last Sunday
there may come to light the evid
nee
oi n ioui crime, sunsiantiatiiig mo
fears of tho neighborhood residents,
In compliance with the request of
Wilbur people, Sheriff Quiae Is pur-
suing a quiet investigation, Dut to
'date ho. has found nothing In the
way of a cluo upon which to work.
the story is that a ramny or six
persons who located near Wilbur
and suddenly left In tho dead of
night, a few months later, for parts
unknown with one of their number
unaccounted for. Circumstances
surrounding the affair have led to
strong suspicion of a crime, but so
far nothing has developed to support
this idea.
Early last spring lliere camo to
Wilbur from Itandon, Or., a family
0n t10 rt.lv question, without
m,n,.0 to Mr. Davis or anyone else,
,no i-oniitl8 packed their inline dlnto
necessities Into a wagon, to wiucn
two horses were harnessed, and when
darkness roll they drove away. When
tho out I It reached the Winchester
ferry about G o'clock the following
morning Monday, July 22 and
was taken across the river one ol'
llio original six members or the fam
ily was missing. This was the 1 S-year-old
boy. Later In the morning,
about 10 o'clock, a resident of Wil
li, it- i.h:itii-i,il In see I lie famllv 111

be can lie located, the Investigation
will, of course, end; but If he la not

Tho boy and the head of the fam
ily did not get along well together,
i the neighbors say, and they quar-
relied bitterly about something the
jday Immediately before the Ooiniils
licit the country. That was the last
idav the boy was ever seen there.
