A queer character drifted into
Prineville Tuesday. He said hia
name was John Hughes; that he
siarteu irom nowhere and was go
ing nowhere, but that he must keep
moving. When questioned closely
he acknowledged he was from New
Mexico. Hughes, who is tall , and
gaunt but as straight as an arrow
had an old rattle-trap of a buggy
that seemed ready to fall to pieces.
It was drawn by a burro that
seemed to be as antiquated as its
master. The old man looked to be
75 or 80 years old, under a thick
coating of dust. He was several
yards in advance of his donkey and
would shout directions to the little
animal that could be heard for sev
era! blocks. Both man and beast
understood each other. It was set
dom necessary to emphasize his
commands with a long stick that he
carried, which was used principally
as a walking stick.
In the old buggy was a bundle of
wheat hay and some blankets. When
Hughes wanted to ride he sat on the
blankets and let his legs hang over
the front end where the dashboard
was supposed to be.
He had an abiding contempt for
state officials and those in authority
