Definite word reached relatives in this county Mon day evening that Walter. Fay, who iwlas born and reared near Wallowa, nan Deen Killed in the Yaqui Indian uprising near Esperanza, Mexico. A telegram to Ernest F. Johnson, from his brother Arthur, in California, con firmed the earlier reports in the Port land newspapers. . Mrs. Fay is ,a member of the Johnson familv herb. a sjster of Mrs. Charles McAlisteV and Ei-nest, L. C., J. L. and J. Ray jonnson. .. .- ; ... ... ... Mr. Fay had been livine at Mo desto, Cat., until recently when he and his wife went to Mexico where he was foreman of a large irrigated plantation. He also had land of his own there. . In the fight it seems that a large party of Yaquis attacked the smaii colony ot Americans and Mr. Fav was one of two or three killed. His widow probably has come out of Mexico by this time, as Arthur uohnson's telegram stated she was trying to get out. .. : Mr. Fay was about 38 years old and lived for -years "in the county. He served in the United States army in the Philippines and was an expert marksman and an enthusiast -on the army. His friends and relatives re call that he said that if the country ever got into another war he would be one of the first to enlist. On his return from the Philippines he iwent into the forestry service, and was in charge of the Chico ranger station when the present pretty building was erected. Ilis wife lived there with him. ... ... iHis father died vears aero and it will be remembered that his mother died very suddenly in Enterprise three years ago. She was living with a grandson, a nephew of Mr. Fay, who on her death went to Mo desto to make his home with his uncle and aunt. About a year and a half tgo he was killed by the caving in of a dirt bank-along a stream near Modesto, f Detroit May Have Municipal Rail- way Detroit. Mich. 1 Mav 24 Complete ownership and Operation of the De troit railway system before the end of the present summer is in prospect. After more than a decade of bicker ing between the city and the Detroit United Railway Comnanv. terms for the actual transfer of the property of the city have been practically decid ed upon and there is every indica tion that by July the municipality win be in actiual control of the sys tem. "V - . Sale of the nrooerty to the citw will give to Detroit the largest municipal ity uuiitruueui street: railway system in the world. Value of the comDanv's property has been variously apnrais ed at from 118.000,000 to S35;0W,000. At a special election, to be held irobably during the" latter "part of une. voters of the city will be askeJ to give heir final approval . to the purchase plan. Three-fifths of the voters must anorove the Dronosition. but, if previous popular decisions of the municipal ownership question may be accented sb a criterion, the vote will be a mere formality. At pre vious elections when the question has been submitted, it has carried by overwhelming - majorities by an eight to one vote at the last election on the question but each time legal obstacles have been, interposed to prevent the actual transfer of . the property to the city. These now have been- removed, and the June election !'. DTTMted to be the final step neti- jssary for the txking over the vlinea by tne municipality.

' Youth. .v-' Iii the June American Magazine David Grayson, writing his . story "Hempfield," comments in part as follows . on the- .conspiracy of the world against youth and growth; '. "The world, of course, is in a se cret conspiracy against . youth and growth. Any man who dares to be vounar. or to arrow, or to be oricrinal. must expect to have the world set ' upon him and pound him unmerci fullyand if that doesn't finish him off, then the world clings desperately to his coat tails, resolved that if it cannot stop him entirely it will at least get along with him and make traveling as difficult, aa nnfifiihlA. This latter - -nrocess - is what a friind fit ! mine ilfuminatively calls the 'drag of mediocrity.' - , 'but this punching and pounding is mostly good for youth and orig inality good if it doesnt kill for it proves the strength of youth, tests faith and enthusiasm, and measures surely the power of originality.. And as for the provoking drag upon their coat tans, youtn . and originality should reflect that this is the onlv way bv which mediocrity ever gets 8head!" - . i Chicken Pot Pie The Chfa Favorite By Mrs. Janet AfcKenzieHili, Editor of the Boston Cooking School Magaxttu - Some folks think that only "colored mammies'.' can cook chicken, but atrial of this famous chicken pot pie disproves that assertion. - Every member of the family will thoroughly enjoy it. - - C Chlcaea Tot tit.
