In the town jail for safe keeping.
When he returned but a short time
later he found his prisoner dead.
Finding a bottle In the Jail Avery
had broken It and with the sharp
edge succeeded In cutting his throat
He severed both the Jugular vein and
the wldnplpe. Bhortly after the find
ing of the body Coroner Folsom was
notified of the tragedy, and he will go

Baker and Union to Moot on Railroad
' Ownership (J una ion. .
Plans have been perfected for the
debate Friday night In this city, be
tween the Baker City high school and
the Union high school, says the Her
ald. The question to be debated is:
Resolved, That the government
should own and operate the railroads
of the United States." Baker will
have the negative and think they can
show that It would not be practicable
for the government to attempt such
work.
The musical part of the program
will be one of the features for there
will be several selections by the la
dles' octet, besides the usual quota of
high school songs and yells.' This
contest Is quite Interesting to Baker
City, for La Orande and Pendleton
have lost to their opponents and Ba
ker is the only large school still In the
race In this district '
Baker City has a strong team and
the whole school has been helping
them In securing data on the ques
tlon. William Hermsen, Frank lie-
Culloch and Roy Barton will uphold
the honors of Baker City and will be
opposed by three girls, Gertrude Sto
ker, Ruth Sclbird and Madeline Hill
of Union. The question is one that
