Dr. H. A. Shaeffer's automobile was
burned Saturday night when the own
er and three friends were driving
along the road near the J. A. Eggle-
son farm, says the Enterprise Chief-,
tain. Everything combustible on the
car was burned and nearly all the re
maining parts were spoiled. Dr.
Shaeffer bought the machine, a Cad
illac, in the spring.
In the early evening Dr. and Mrs.
Shaeffer and Mr. and Mrs. Notting
ham hud been to Joseph. On the re
turn, A. M. Pace, W. R. Nicholson
and A. W. Hnggerty met the dentist
on the street and asked him for a
ride. He said he would take them
around the loop, out on the river road,
past the Bauer and Long farms, and
basck by Prairie creek. But the car
was runnig smoothly and passed the
corner where the turn should have
been made. Dr. Shaeffer said he
would turn north at the Jones cor-
r.
A moment later flames shot out of
the front of the machine. It was stop
ped and the passengers got out and
tried to extinguish the fire. They met
with no success, and then, fearing an
explosion when the flames reuched the
gasoline tank, they ran away a dis
tance of 100 yards and waited.
The fire burned out but there was
no explosion. An examination t'ne
next morning showed che gasoline
tank empty. The front wheels did
not seem to have been injured and

It is the theory of those familiar
with the car that a leak developed
in the gasoline supply pipe. This leak
apparently hud nearly emptied the
tank when the fire started. A trail
of fire was first seen on the ground
when the car was moved, after it had

Have You Investigated
PALMER LANDS
$15 per acre; $1.50 a year: Interest 6 per cent; Well lo
eated; Good soil; Favorable climate, altitude same as La
Grande, water plentiful. ,
This is the last chance to get good agricultural land in Un
ion Count y for raw land prices. After clearing, this land" will
produce as good crops as desired. The clearing is comparative
ly easy as the brush and slashings have all been burned, and the
stumps being of white pine are n ot difficult to remove.
Palmer lands are located about 30 miles from La Grande,
and 10 miles from Elgin. . Palmer Junction on the O. R. & K
is from one to 4 miles of any part" of these lands. Good wagon
roads lead to the railroad and to Elgin. This land in 10 years
will be worth $100 per acre or more. As an investment or as an
exceptional opportunity for one of small means Palmer lands
stand out as an exceptional opportunity. Call and let us show
you photographs and explain further in detail.
