Monday evening at about 8 o'clock, Miss Opal Wakefield, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. L. Wakefield,. who lives In South Union, near the Episcopal church, was seized from the back porch of her home and pushed about 50 feet .from the house, where she was dropped, her cries for help having fiishttned her nssallant, who made his escape. Mr. Wakefield ran at onee to his (laughter's assistance and helped her to the house, where she was al most prostrated with fright. An alarm was at once sounded, and the city marshal and a large posse of citizens were promptly on the grounds, mak ing a thorough search, but without avail, the assailant making his escape. VarlouB theories are advanced in the case, but the solution seems yet far away. The young lady Is about 13 years of age, had Just stepped out upon the porch, and was pounced upon and forced away without warn ing. Aside from some bruises and a se vere nervous strain. Miss Wakefield was not Injured. The city marshal is still working on Che case and a solution may yet be found. Union Republican. COUNTY FAIR. To Be Held at Union-by Racing Asso ciation.

On this land, alone, it Is estimated by the peo ple of Irrigon that 3700,000 can be raised toward recouping the trust company. There are about 25 miles of ditch and pipe line on the Irrigon project and by the construction of a few miles more of pipe line a large part of the present Idle lands can be reclaimed. It is hoped bythe people of Irrigon that Mr. Ladd takes hold of the Irri gon project td develop it fully and make it yield what it Is really worth to the depositors of the tist company.
