Since last Saturday, March 1, death
has claimed four citizens in and near

spent iu the Hawaiian Islands.
Previous to tho construction ot tne
first county bridge at Winchester,
.Mr. Ullluni operated the ferry there
Tor a long time. Later he was en

forced his retirement about a year
ago.

Red Bluff (Cat.) News. March 1:
Whltey Diets sat In the Justice Court
of Red Bluff Friday and listened to
the testimony produced which would
bind him over to the Superior Court
on the charge of grand larceny, pro
vided there would be sufficient evi
dence which would point out Whltey
to be connected with the offense.
There being Insufficient evidence the
case was dismissed.
R. A. Foster, of Corning, was tho
complaining witness and accused
Diets of stealing and taking away a
black mare belonging to him. The
mare was later sold to a Mr. Ham
by Diets and John Torgcrson, alius
St. Clair, who waB this week sen
tenced to life Imprisonment for mur
der. An attempt was made by the
prosecution to Introduce evidenco
that 8t. Clair divided the money bo
tween Dleti and himself, and that St.
Clair had made a statement.
uch was the attitude of the evi
dence when the star witness, St.
Clair, was called to the witness
stand. It Is known Hint Whltey and
St. Clair have no love for one an
other, and the position that he would
take under surh circumstances was
one that could not be foretold. St.
Clair on the witnesa stand Btated
that he stole the mnro In question,
and sold her In Chlco to Mr. Ham.
That he did not see Whltey Dlctz
during tho transaction, and that
Whltey had nothing whatever to do
with It. An attempt was made to
show that St. Clnlr had told a differ
ent story than the one he told on
the witness stand, hut the prosecu
tion was not allowed to Impeach the
testimony, lie being their own wit
ness. St. Clair was Informed of his
riRhts as a witness In the case, and
since the evidence would have a ten
dency to Incriminate him, he was told
that he did not have to testify unless
ho wanted to. It therefore happened
that the enemy of Whltey hnd clenred
him of any connection In the larceny
of the mnro and he was discharged
by Iho magistrate.
St. Clnlr explained that on account
or his future associations, lo he con
sidered a stool pigeon among .them
would be very iiungeroun. me..
an unwritten law among convicts that
snueallnK on a pal" is a mucous
crlmo and punishable by ostracism or
by death. It Is a difficult matter to
nliinln onv evidence of a detrimental
nature from one "con" against an
other.

bring him before the grand Jury.

PARTY INSPECTING UMBER IN
NORTH UMPQUA
DISTRICT
Miy Ftreskadiw btetsrve Siwwi OpenbtK,
Witt i Wrd fr the Sutler
hah raker
For several months Supervisor
Bartrum has been endeavoring to In
terest timber operators to develop
National forest timber, lying east .of
Roseburg, and as a result of his ef
forts a party of experienced lumber
men from Portland and Seattle, ac
companied by Assistant District For
ester C. 8. Judd, W. T. Andrews,
lumberman, and Asher Ireland, of
the forest service, left Rosebnrg at
9 o'clock this morning In two rigs
for the Inspection of the timber In
the Umpqua River basin. If the tim
ber and the topography of the coun
try attract them they may be In the
market for the purchase of a large
amount of National forest timber.
They went prepared to make a thor
ough Inspection of that region, and
It Is to be hoped that this magnifi
cent stand of timber will fully meet
with their expectations.
It will be remembered that Mr.
Bartrum recently consummated an
extensive sale of forest timber on
Row River, In Lane County. It may
be Interesting to many to know that
the timber In National forests Is for
sale In any quantity, either to the
small or large operator, always with
the provision, however, that opera
tions shall begin Immediately In
order to make It a purely manufact
uring proposition and to prevent
holding for speculation. If this sale
la made In all probability It will be a
large one, the exploltntlon of which
will be a great public benefit.
Mr. Dnrtrum goes to Cottage Grove
tonight or tomorrow to attend to de
tails of the sale of the big body of
Government timber In the Row River
district, above mentioned.
A sale of a largo body of the tim
ber In tho North Umpqua district
would be of vast Importance to Doug
las County, as It would mean the
building and operation of large saw
mills, either nt the timber or at some
point on the S. P. R. It. In either
rase a rallrond to the timber hell
would he a prime necessity, either to
hnul the logs or the finished product
to market. What will he the out
come of this visit of the timber men
who were here today Is entirely a
matter of conjecture. It la well
known here that one of the finest
hodies of timber In the United Stntea
stands In the Umpqua River district.
and all hopo to see some practical
mill men begin operations thereon
at an early date. Already thero Is
much conjecture ax to where they
would make connection with the S.
P. It. It. In case they decldo to pur
chase timber and begin operatlotifl.
Whether Roseburg or Winchester or
Borne other point will be chosen, and
also ns to where the mlllH will ho
located, will perhaps depend upon
the facilities offered In tho way of
sites, yard room, etc.
