"Best by Test"
Feeder Buyers Congregate.
Kansas City Stock Yards, Sept. 21.
The attendance of the largest body
of feeder "buyers here last week seen
this year, together with strong de
mand from killeis. resulted in an ad
vance of 'JO to Xr cents on cattle
after Monday. The ynrds were well
cleaned, end the buying side was up
to maximum capacity today when re
ceipts amounted to Rtt.OOO head, be
sides 2,000 calves. The range coun
try is well represented today, and
sales were satisfactory to sellers,
steady to l"c lower than Friday, but
a shade stronger than on Monday last
week. A trninload of Wheeler and
Ijivender steers from Plnccrville, Col.,
bred in Texas, sold to killers at $7.10,
around 1,0'JB pounds average. Other
mountain beef steers sold at $fi 80(f
$.0O. Panhnndle yearlings sold up
to $7.S(); twos at $7.257.50. some
commonish ones at lower prices; cows,
$ii.2(j?ti.2ft; ennnors, $4.t!5. Best
fed steers today brougnt J10.SH); grass

WHOLE STATE
IS
FORTUNATE
It appears, now that detailed re
ports have been made, that all of
Oregon escaped forest fires with the
same good fortune that Union county
did this year.
Oregon suffered practically no loss
from forest fires this year, accord
in gto State Forester Elliott at Salem,
despite the fact that the timbered
and brush area owned by the govern-
I ment and Drivate individuals and com-
! panies comprises approximately 22,-
000,000 acres. ine entire aamage
from fires, Mr. Elliott says, will be
less than $500. Last year the loss
on privately-owned timber lands total
ed $29,000.
Oregon has 13,125,000 acres within
the National forests, of which about
10,000,000 acres is commercial timber
land. There are 10,000,000 acres of
privately-owned timber land patroled
by the state and timber owners. In
addition to this there are approxi
mately 2,000,000 acres of brush land
in the Southern part of the state.
One of the reasons for the greater
frequency of forest fires in Jackson
and Josephine counties than in other
counties of the state, is said to be the
higher average temperature in those
sections during the summer months,
Mr. Elliott said.

Fifty Gallons of Root Taken.
Baker, Sept. 21. Fifty gallon of
whiskey taken from David Rombough
New York, Sept. 15. Through a
writ of habeas corpus applied for in
the United States District Court re
cently Goldstein & Goldstein, attor
neys, are trying to prevent the im
migration authorities from deporting
Miss Hilda Rose Cavanaugh, an Eng
lish actress, whose fiance is Clarence
D. Levey, a real estate broker of Long
Branch, N. J.
Several years aeo Levev met Msi
Cavanaugh when she was filling a he-
atncal engagement here. The eouo'e
became engaged, but Miss Cavanaugh
returned to London to resume h-?r
stage work there. Several weeks ago
she returned here on the Carpathia,
expecting to fill another theatrical en
gagement. In spite of the fact that
she traveled first class, the immigra
tion authorities held her up on the
ground that she was without funds and
likely to become a public charge.
Miss Cavanaugh told the board of
special inquiry of her theatrical en
gagement but the board ordered hr
deportation and the finding was upheld
ry ine aepanment of labor in Wash
ington. Then Mr. Levev came fnr
ward and stated his desire to marry
the Bctress. This is made the basis
for the writ of habeas corpus applied
for asking for the release of M133
Cavanaugh from Ellis Island.

Forest Fire Near Sparta.
Baker, Sept. 21. Called by long dis
tance telephone from the lookout sta
tion on Sparta butte, Forest Super
visor Barnes and W. E. White of the
Minam forestry service motored at
top speed beyond Goose creek at 2
o'clock this morning, a distance of
more than 27 miles, to find that a
fire in the sagebrush had attracted
the lookout's attention. The blaze
was near the forest boundaries and
for a time menaced the timbered area.
SALEM MYSTEY IS NOW CLEAR.
Hotel Clerk, Long Missing, Now Is
Known to be Dead.
Salem, Or., Sept. 21. The skeleton
of the body found last Friday in the
underbrush of the Willamette, five
miles north of the city, is evidently
that of Irvin Springer, formerly night
clerk of the Marion hotel, according
to those who are in a position to know.
Irvin Springer, a son of Peter
Springer of this city, night clerk of
the Marion hotel, disappeared on the
night of January 8, 1915, and, not
withstanding the fact that the father
had done everything to locate him,
no word had been received to indicate
whether he was dead or living. -
Last Friday a skeleton with part of
the clothing clinging to it was found
by some of those looking for the body
of Leland Hendricks near the banks
of the river in Polk county, where it
had evidently been washed during the
freshet of last February.
In the pockets vere found a bunch
of keys and, on the suggestion that
they might possibly have 'been those
of young Springer, they were brought
to the Marion hotel. One proved to
be a pass key that was made espe
cially for the locks of tho Marion, un
locking the doors into all rooms. This
pass key was in the possession of
Springer when he disappeared. Other
keys were those for the Marion cash
register for the cigar room and for
the storage room, all of which were
in Springers' possession when he dis
appeared.
