Campers Home Again
Plenty of Berries
Mrs. C. M. Elkins and family,
Silas Hodges, and son Otto, Ran
dolph Ketchum and wife and
Grandpa Elkins, returned Satur
day evening from a month's out
ing in the Cascade mountains.
Over a week was spent on the
headwaters of the South Santiara
picking blackberries. While here
the party was joined by V. F.
King, his daughter Edyth, and
son Jimmy and the Ilinton folks.
Berries were scattered but all man
aged to get some.
Fish Lake was visited. This re
sort has been much improved by
the road company. There is a
new hotel and barnes, and clean
camping grounds.
Moving homeward the parly
camped at Heisings on the Ma
toles. From here Si Hodges and
Millard Elkins went on a fishing
trip to Blue Lake, six miles dis
tant. They brought back over 50
beauties averaging over ten inches
in length.
When at Heising's John Dell
met with an accident while raking
hay. , Hig, teatia took-frigt aodf
ran away, smashing the rake and
severely injuring Dell.
From the Matoles the party
moved toward Mt. Jefferson for
huckleberries. Camping on Eagle
creek, six miles this side of the
patch, the rest of the way was
made on horseback. A week was
spent here and fifty gallons of
berries were picked. Yum Ycm.

Will Prosecute
Hillman Promoters
Oregonian: Prosecution for al
leged false pretenses in connection
with the sale of lots in the alleged
townsite of Hillman, in the Des
chutes valley, will be undertaken
when the grand jury assembles the
latter part of this month, said
District Attorney Cameron. That
official has been quietly looking
about for information on the sub
ject. J. O. Fleming, a resident of
Salem, informed the district at
torney that he purchased two lots
in Hillman on the installment
plan and has paid f 175 on ac
count. He says he was deceived
as to the value of the property and
will give bis testimony if a prose
cution is undertaken. Fleming
has alio laid his case before the
poetoflice department and it is
possible that a prosecution will be
commenced before the federal
grand jury alleging misuse of the
mails.
Both F. J. Cooper and T. M.
Taylor, who constitute the com
pany selling Hillman, are out of
the city, and it is said' that tlfey
are making a harvest in the
vicinity of Spokane. There is no
activity in the Hillman trade in
this city at present, but the wife of
one of the promoters is here and is
said to have announced her inten
tion to carry on the sale of the
property, contending that it is all
that it is represented to be.
Hillman is an outgrowth of the
railroad extensions going on in the
Deschutes valley and its name is
intended to be a felicitous combi
nation of syllables from the names
of the two great builders. Lots in
the proposed town are sold under
representation that both "roads
have recognized it as a strategic
commercial point on their lines.
Attorney-General Crawford, who
visited the spot recently, and of
ficials and prominent citizens of
Crook county, say that the town
site is located on a lava bed and
is totally unsuited for any human
purpose.
Harvey W. Scott Dead
Harvey W.Scott, editor of the
Portland Oregonian for the past
half century, died at Baltimore,
Maryland, Sunday morning,
August T. Mr. Scott went to that
city for an important operation a
short time ago, and died from the
effects of the surgeon's knife.
He was 72 years of age. The
primary cause ol the death
of the Oregonian editor was
a complication of rheumatic com
plaints which came upon him after
a trip from the east about May 1.
Contrary to the belief of many
readers of the Oregonian, Mr. Scott
mantained an office in the Oregon
ian building and directed the gen
eral policy of the paper until his
illness, three months ago. Some
of the shorter editorials were
written by him, and more dictated,
while the subject and tone of many
of the articles appearing on the
editorial page were suggested by
Mr. Scott to his subordinates.
The trouble that was eventually
the cause of his death, was first
noticed by Mr. Scott about Mayl,
but he continued his work at the
office as best he could until about
the first of'June, although at times
he could scarcely get to his work.
He went to Hot Lake, Oregon, for
medical treatment, but grew worse
continually until about two weeks
ago, when it was decided that an
operation might give relief. Ac
cordingly, on Monday of last week
he and his wife and eon Leslie M.,
arrived in Baltimore Mr. Scott
said he had stood the journey fine
aud insisted on going onto the
operating table last Saturday in
stead of Monday, as had been plan
ned. A number of the best physicans
in the land were to assist in the
operation, and after an examina
tion found that Mr. Scott bad a
weak heart, but none thought that
he would have any trouble surviv
ing the effects of the operation.
There were no unusual symptons
and the patient was considered
practically out of danger until Sun
day morning, when the end came
suddenly and without pain.

BRIQUETTING FUEL
Pln by Which the Waste From Min.
May Be Utilizad.
While the Culled States has been
more fortunate than Kurupcun coun
tries Id the amount of good bituminous
and anthracite coal w hich it possesses,
still the time la tint fur distant when
the American people must realize that
If the price of coal Is not to reach such
a high figure that the Industries of the
United States cannot compete with
foreign Industries we will have to be
more careful of what Is now wasted
in the process of mining, and then we
may look for the general adoption of
brlquettlng us a partial solution of the
problem of mine waste.
Brlquettlng schemes have failed In
certain Instances In the past because
they were not under proper technical
supervision or the supply of raw fuel
or binder was unccrtalu or poor Judg
ment was shown in the locution of the
plant to supply markets already sup
plied with good fuel at low prices.
Most of the brlquettlng plants In Eu
ropean countries are located nt the
mines and are owned by the mine op
erators, so that they may utilize the
waste from the mines In the case of
the hard fuels or can make low grade
fuels such ns lignites Into briquets
without transportation charges having
been paid on the raw material.
Success In the fuel brlquettlng In
dustry la the Culted Stales will only
be attained when American mine op
erators become sufficiently Interested
In this method of utilizing their mine
waste, or, In case -of "Mgnltos, making
a good fuel from Inferior raw material,
to Install complete brlquettlng plants
at their mines. With proper equip
ment and superintendence plants so
located should be a good Investment
for the operators. Engineering Magazine.
ABOUT ALUMINIUM.
Metal li So Pliable That It Provee
Useful as a Textile Material,
Though aluminium takes first rank
among metals for lightness, combined
with toughness nnd durability. It Is
hardly what onn would expect to prove
useful as a textile material, but the
articles now - made from It Include
neckcloths, pompadours, shoes, belts,
neckties, shawls and hats. Straps and
lacings for shoes ore among the new
est productions. Sieves or screens
from aluminium have proved especial
ly vulunble in sugar refining, ns It
quickly becomes coaled with ucld. re
