NEW YORK, July 17. Told by doc
tors that be hud but a few months to
live, John.K. Siddall, editor of the
American Magazine, guarded the
secret from hia friends and made
plans, before keeping his rendezvous
with death, for the publication he
loved and made famous to carry on his
Ideals.
Siddall died at his Ardsley-on-Hudson
home Monday afternoon, of
cancer. His most Intimate friends
had known for two weeks that the end
was near, but the editor bad kept his
grim secret locked behind a cheerful,
energetic exterior since early April.
At the end of a long career In jour
nalism and the magazine field, Siddall
literally gave bis life for bis maga
zine; his days were shortened by his
tremendous labors to have everything
in order at the American Maeaiiue
when he passed.
Slddall's ambition was to produce a
magazine In which every subscriber
would read a "bit of the editor's domi
nant makeup." He was author of the
essays "Sid Says."
An Increase In circulation from
400.000 to 2,000,000 under his edi
torial guidance is a testimonial of
success. .
In April a council of doctors met to
discuss the malady that was under
mining his health. "I want the truth
about this matter," he said. Just as
though he was ordering a reporter out
on an Important atory.
And they told him. He had six
months to live providing he gave up
all work and rested; relieved himself
of editorial burdens and went out
doors. With the calmness of an editor
working ont the details of an Im
portant story, be closeted himself for
se.-eral days. He did Jiot tell a liv
ing soul of the tryst he held with
death.
' The he called his associates to him.
He told them that the doctors had
told him he would soon be well but
that he must have a long rest. Day
by day he outlined the coming Issues
of the magazine, shifting this piece
of responsibility to one understudy
;re than 2filt nilh.B a.tJ then to another. Hn cnntfnneil in wrlt
Ckeynoe, the motor raced I n,s own contributions for issues
3'T but at Rock Springs the mnths ahead,
suddenly beaan to leak It was some time before he had
pasted over the air mail saddled the Important duties on mem-
uers or tne start. But they all ac
cepted bravely that their 'Ichlef
might got. the "vacation" that was to
restore his health.
With everything in readiness for
many future issues of his book, be
went to his office last week. His desk
contained but few articles others
were in the hands of his associates.
He bundled these few articles to
gether and closed the door of his be
loved sanctum behind alone In the
knowledge that It would be the last
time he would ever visit "the office."
Then be went to his summer home
st Ardley-on-Hudson. The wait for
the end was not long.

HFIRE PREVENTION
WORK S STARTED
Douglas County Fire Patrol
Keeping Damage Down
to Minimum
NO BIG LOSS SO FAR
Five pf the Fourteen Fires Re
ported Traceable Directly
to Carelessness on the
Part of Smokers
With an early start In fire pre
vention work this season, the Doug
las county Fire Patrol a asocial Ion
has made unlt-nrtiri hemlvnv thia
year In the matter of keeping down
me lire damage In the county to
Iho minimum.
Arconlliig to Harvey Crown, dis
trict fire warden for the association,
only fourteen fires have been re
ported this season. None of these
fires have been very serious and no
gret financial loss has been In
curred up to the present. Five of
these fourteen fires have been
caused by the carelessness of
smokers. The majority of the rest
were only minor conflagrations the
most beiug mere unlawful burning
or siasnings.
1 ne ure I'atrol association em
ploys this year a crew of twenty-
lour men. including lookouts, rang
ers and cruisers. Two lookouts, one
at Mt. Scott and one at Silver Butte.
are busy all the time watching for
smns, and do a great deal if work
along preventive lines.
Douglas county contains 1.000,000
acres of valuable timber land out
side the national forest reserve. This
private timber land Is protected by
the association, which receives the
co-operation and support of the na
tional service. The property Is all
private and the organization, entirely
Independent, all funds for fire fight
ing and cruising expenses coming
from the members. Most of the
membership conies from owners out
side the state, and no fund is set
atide by the county Itself. The
membership includes over 700.
Work In the protection of the O.
and C. land grant also takes con
siderable time, as a great scope of
territory is covered.
Last year the work proved very
valuable In saving the timber lands,
over $23,000 being spent for the
season. Two hundred and five fires
were reported for that season many
being very serious and causing con
siderable expense.
The greatest difficulty In connec
tion with the work of the associs-'1
tion Is the lack of co-operation from
the people of the county, and par
tlcularly the campers and hunlers
throughout the dry season. The
greater part of the fire loss is
traceable directly to the careless
ness of people ho should have a
real Interest In preserving timbered
lands. Smokers are very much In
prominence In the list of causes.
The burning of slashings without
permits also causes a lot of trouble,
since every fire whether serious or
otherwise Is reported to the office
and an Investigation Is always nec
essary. According to Warden Ilrown the
timber industry in this county far
over sbndows any other individual
Industry. The county official cruise
shows that there arel 5,942.501,000
t"ct of standing timber within the
borders of the cuinty. The valuation
of a'l the Industries In the county
'is offi'-la'lv set rt $35,000,000 and
the taxable tlmebr In the county
alone ainonts to $12,143,757, this
nmo'int being fur over one-third the
total valuation of the county. As
an asset to the county the timber
reseources of the county far sur
pas any othei Industry or business,
and the protection of tills property
Is of prime importance to every per
son llvlrg here.
The state laws require that all
individual owners of timber Innds
Insslst In the protection of the- prop-
be kept on all violators.

'A game that will virtually de
cide whether the Roseburg team will
take the pennant by winning first
place in the Willamette League, will
be played here agulnsi Cottage Grove
Sunday. The Sunday's contest was
scheduled with Junction City, but
due to other arrangements the Cot
tage Grove aggregation will play In
stead.
In playing this team the locals are
going up against one of the hardest
fighting and best organized teams
In the league. It now holds second
place in the league, having a record
of winning seven of eight games
played, losing only to the Eugene
team, which stands first in the
league. In the one game which
Hoseburg has played with Cottage
Grove the rcore was 3 to 1 In the
latter's favor. Turpln, the Cottage
Grove pitcher, has never lost a game
he has pitched to the locals when
nlnvinp ,tn Innmi nntslrie hia nwn
cltv. He Is the (!ott.-,.o Grove I
Ktronghold and puts up a fast game
of baseball.
The Hoseburg team realizes Just
the position It Is In and each of the
members 1b making every effort to
line up Sunday In the hardest game
ever played here. If the boys win
this time they will have another
chance to play Cottasc Grove to de
cide the tie. This game, if played,
will be the last of the season. It
will be played on Labor Day and will
doubtlessly decide the champion
ship. Strenuous practice is being
held every night and the whole
team turning out In fine shape. The
same lineup which has been used in
the past few games and which seems
to work together In a splendid man
ner will be used again Sunday. Pru
Itt will occupy the mound with the
same In and outrield In support.
Indications are that the game will
be the most interesting contest of
the season and a large crowd of fans
are expected. The - team manage
ment says that fifty per cent of the
good playing depends upon the sup
port from the sldo Hues.

FOUR SHOTS ARE FIRED
Robber Chased by Officer
John Ison, Who Fires Four
Times at Fugitive, But
Fails to Stop Him
Considerable excitement prevailed
at about 1 o'clock this morning when -
I a masked bandit held up the Why
Not Eut restaurant and escaped under
gunfire with $55.51) 1n cash. The chase
in which Night Officer Ison fired four
shots at the fleeing robber, brought
many people residing In the vicinity
of the court house, from their beds.
The bandit entered the restuarant
from the rear at about 1 o'clock. Al
Miller, the cook, and Harry McCarty,
dishwasher were the only ones Insido
at that time. Gerald Meredith, Iho
waiter, was standing on Jackson
street near the front door.
The robber, his face covered with a
red bandanna handkerchief, which
was tied about his head Just below
the eyes, walked up to Miller, the cook
and motioned for him to leave. Miller
thoueht It was a Joke and laughed at
the bandit and told him to "get the
H out of here."
With that the masked man produced
a revolver which he shoved into the
cook's ribs, with the result that the
latter lost no time In making a break
for the front door. McCarty, whe vas
engaged In scrubbing the floor l o
boltod when fie saw the revolver.. The
bandit was careful to refrain rom
peaking and accompanied his mo-
tlons only wllh audible grunts. This
causes the officers to believe that the
holdup was the work of local talent
nd that it was perpetrated by some
Roseburg boy who la familiar with
the place and feared that the employes
would recognize his voice If he spoke.
After clearing the place of the employ
es the robber proceeded to empty the
till taking $55.50, as near as can be
ascertained, and escaped through the
back door.
In the meantime the employes scat
tered out looking for an officer and
found Night watchman John Ison at
the Umpqua Hotel.
Ison started around on Main street
to cut off the bandit's escape and as
ha reached the corner of the First
State and Savings Bank building he
saw the young man running north on
Main street. Ison called to him to halt
and started in chase, but the robber,
only quickened his pace. Ison fired at
the legs of the fugitive and the bullet
struck the baseboards of the Scott
plumbing shop.
The robber was carrying the money
In one hand and his revolver grippnd
in the other but he did not return the
off'cer's fire. Ison shot again a mom
ent later and fired a third shot from
the corner In the rear of the Douglas
Hotel. By this time be had been con
siderably outdistanced by the younger
man, who was a good runner, and
gave up the chase. He fired again,
this time i'-.lo the air, in an effort to
attract some one wllh an automobile,
but as he could obtain no car, was
forced to abandon the chase.
Frank Iieatty and Bliss Singleton
saw the fleeing bandit cross the Deer
('reek brldce and head for the river,
but a search of that district failed to
reveal any trace of him.
He was a young man wllh blue eyes
and was about 5 feet 6 Inches in
heiiiht beyond this no description was
obtained. In his flight along Main
street be dropped some of the small
change which he was carrying and
various persons today picked up a few
coins which were scattered over sev
eral hloejts.
Officer Ison said that In shooting at
the fugitive, he was careful to keep his
shots low as he did not desire to kill
Ihe young man and did not want.lo
lake chances on shooting Into any of
the buildings along the way. He
thinks that his first shot struck the
heel of the young man's shoe, as the
bullet was tumbling when It entered
the baseboard of the Scott Plumbing
Shop. The officers are confident that
the hoidup was the work of a local
youth and believe that he will event-
j ually bo apprehended.
