Uinpqun Valley News: What was
without doubt the largest and most
iniporlanl real estate deal to be con
summated in this city for years ma
terialized Friday afternoon, when
Frank Waitc disposed of his, hold
ings in Ihe Siillierliu Lund & Water
company to- tile Luco Lund company.
The consideration is said to have,
been approximately $:j."i0,000. The
purchasers nro said to ho among tho
largest colonization concerns in the
world, having operated oxtonsively
throughout the United Stales. K. L.
Meyers, state senator of Nebraska,
and M. C. Miller of Minneapolis rep
resented the company in the deal,
having "spent Ihe last two weeks in
this vicinity.
The land involved in Ihe trnnsnc
tion represents fil per cent of the
stuck in the Sutherlin Timid & Water
cnnipuny, thus giving the new buy
ers the controlling interest. The re
niainder of Ihe stock is divided be
tween .1. W. Perkins and Edward An
drews. Mr. Wnile slill retains his
home tract, comprising about 3000
acres of vnlnnlile fruit' land.
As yet the purchasers have not
made public their intentions, but
from indications it is safe to assert
that Ihey will be the means of bring
ing hundreds of newcomers to this
section.

WlLKF.S-llARltF., June 8. Mrs.

about midnight. She assured them
that all Ihe money she had wns fiS

a n hour. They twisted her fingers
and thumbs, breaking one of her
thumbs; pulled her tongue nnd toro

kicked and struck and pinched her,
ami finally left her unconscious.
Neighbors found her still uncon
